Original subtitles

Rock away your existence,

Shouting that you are here...

A new journey begins now.

As we survived through the changing seasons,

we gained knowledge and strength, (just looks like a survival game)

But the forgotten memories,

of the feelings abandoned within the flows of time,

have also been lost.

When sinking down, we learned loneliness.

But now we've met each other, we are no longer alone.

Unveil your feelings, Those high emotions

Those tears will change your fate.

Pound your heartbeat against the darkness,

We're sure to meet, Under the same flag of pain

Milady, the skies have begun to look threatening.

We should seek lodging for the night before we get rained on.

I see. Carry on.

Yes, Milady.

What dense fog?!

We cannot see what's up ahead.

What was that?

Is something the matter?

Lady Kayo!

The Mysterious Curse of the Haunted House

I hear that it happened while the mistress of the Land of Honey, Lady Kayo,

was on her way to visit the household of her parents in Land of Candy.

Attendants from Land of Candy went out to meet them,

thinking it odd that their arrival was delayed,

only to find that the palanquin and poles had been cast away at the mountain pass.

I am told that Lady Kayo and all of her attendants have disappeared.

Then, our task is to search for the Lady, right?

That is so.

Hinata's Byakugan and Kiba and Akamaru's keen sense of smell

should prove helpful in this search mission,

and Naruto is, well, just Naruto.

What are you saying, Grandma?

That I have nothing in particular to recommend me?

But isn't that the case?

I think that you have good points, too, Naruto...

Oh! Leave it to Hinata.

Go ahead and list them up for Grandma Tsunade!

Come on, what are my good points?

Er... umm... Let me see...

It shouldn't be that hard!

I didn't mean to make it seem that way... Um... well...

Hey there, you two. Are you done?

Say, Grandma, there wouldn't be anything odd

happening in this mission, would there?

Something odd?

That is to say... might there perhaps... be ghosts involved?

Ghosts? Are you afraid of such things?

Well, umm, er... kinda.

There are no such things as ghosts.

Stop talking such nonsense and get on your way.

Which brings us to the question of where to, Fifth Hokage?

Kubisaki Pass.

K Kubisaki Pass? As in the Broken Neck Pass?

I knew I had a bad premonition.

Fool!

A Shinobi shouldn't dally about such things. Get to business!

You're scarier than any ghost!

We're off!

Excuse us.

It's always like this with that one...

Lady Tsunade, Kubisaki Pass is where

the capital of the Land of Necks once stood isn't it?

The ruined castle of the Kubisaki Clan,

which met its destruction 50 years ago, must still be there.

And what of it?

Ruined castles may be found just about anywhere.

Have you caught Naruto's cowardice bug, Shizune?

N -No, that's not it.

Oh, this is the spot.

The Broken Neck Pass.

It gives me the creeps somehow, I tell you.

It's started to rain. Let's hurry.

It's really coming down!

A castle.

I hadn't heard anything about a castle standing here.

Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this.

See, see?! This mission is starting to seem creepier and creepier.

But this may be a major clue.

Let's go.

Yeah. At this rate, we'll get soaking wet.

H-Hey, don't be in such a hurry!

What a magnificent castle.

Won't it be sort of rude to suddenly intrude upon them?

It's almost night. Maybe we'll be causing them trouble.

Naruto, don't tell me you really are scared!

N-No way, I tell you!

Pull yourself together, Naruto.

Let's go.

The door opened by itself!

Excuse me, is anybody home?

The lights are turned on.

Please let us shelter here from the rain for a bit!

Hey! Wait! Akamaru!

Excuse us!

Good evening.

Something sure smells good.

It's still warm.

Was someone here until just a little while ago?

What's that?

That's one scary looking guy.

I wonder if he's the master of this castle.

If he's the master of this castle, than that makes him a feudal lord right?

If this is the feudal lord's castle,

then the area around here should be the capital.

But this is right on the country borderline.

Hey! Akamaru!

What are you doing?

You shouldn't eat that without permission.

- Naruto? - What is it?

Don't startle me like that.

Just now, the painting's eyes moved!

You moron. How could a painting move? You're too much of a scaredy cat.

The table's set for seven people.

So, what of it?

The Land of Honey party that went missing also numbered seven.

The Lady and her attendants may still be in this castle...

Let's split up and search for them.

Wha...? We gonna split up?

Since we're all here together, why don't we search together?

What do you say, Kiba? Hinata?

Naruto, stop talking like a kid. This is a mission!

You don't have to scold me so much! I know that!

Hey! Wait a minute!

I'm just not cut out for this kind of stuff.

This is scarier than going to the bathroom in the middle of the night!

This is creepy!

No!

Not again!

Kiba, Hinata, Akamaru!

I'm too scared alone, after all!

Do you sense it, too? I'm sure this is the scent of a human being.

It's here.

There's no one here.

I'll eat you up.

Who's that? Is someone there?

The ceiling...

Take that, you.

Look at all these books!

The History of Neck Castle...

This was written a full fifty years ago!

"The enemy forces have already surrounded the castle.

"Our people were brutally slaughtered and

"there're only few of the soldiers left in castle.

"It seems certain that I would not live to see nightfall either.

"But my thirst for vengeance remains in the castle,

"and I vow with this castle to consume every last man,

"every human setting foot within these walls...

"Signed, Gosa Kubisaki."

Consume?

I'll eat you...

What is this?

Gosa Kubisaki!

Crap!

Hinata! Hey!

Hinata! Pull yourself together!

Naruto...

Naruto, Hinata, are you all right?

Kiba, Akamaru!

A castle that fell fifty years ago?

What nonsense!

That is how the scroll is dated.

It says that everyone who enters this castle will be eaten alive.

True, we have been swallowed whole!

Naruto!

Are you okay? Hey!

That hurt!

There he is!

I I'm sorry!

What is this?

This isn't the armor of the Kubisaki Clan.

I wonder if this belonged to an enemy soldier...

There's some more over there. They are different armors.

Those armors bear the crest of the Kubisaki Clan.

Let's hurry up and get out of here!

That's the same armor as in the painting!

Could it be... that this is the real Gosa Kubisaki?

Gosa Kubisaki?

What's going on?

He's melting!

What is this?

Something smells really sour.

There is something strange about this castle.

Hinata!

Yeah.

Byakugan!

The whole wall is covered with a flow of Chakra.

Why?

It's moving!

This wall seems to be alive!

What if...

Gentle Fist!

A Are you all right, Hinata?

Uh huh.

I've seen something very similar to this somewhere before.

The giant toad summoned by the Pervy Sage...

from inside its stomach!

Inside its stomach?!

Then, I wonder if, by chance, this smell could be... gastric juices?!

Gosa Kubisaki invoked the Summoning d utsu

before the fall of the castle.

But the thing he summoned...

was big enough to swallow the entire castle whole.

From the time we entered the castle, we, too, have been gobbled up!

But, why would this thing go to the trouble of transforming to a castle to eat us?

I don't know.

What was that?

Oh!

H Help!

Are you the Lady of the Land of Honey?

She's embedded in the wall.

We are from the Village Hidden in the Leaves.

We have come to help you.

Here, I'll help you out now.

It's no use.

Please hang on!

Oh no! This thing is rounding up all the humans inside here

and returning to its original form.

At this rate, we're in danger too!

Naruto, Hinata, we've got to get out of here!

Man Beast Clone!

Fang over Fang!

I am the castle.

And by order of my master Gosa, I am to eat all who set foot within.

Naruto!

Ouch...

I'll eat you.

How can w e get out of its stomach?!

I don't know.

If this creature was Summoned,

then there should be a scroll for the contract.

If we tear up the scroll, then this creature should return to the world it came from.

Is that so?

- Hinata! - Right!

Byakugan!

Found it.

It's up above. Probably in the castle tower.

How are we supposed to get up there in this situation?!

The wall's Chakra have begun to stabilize again.

Who's that?

Gosa Kubisaki!

I won't be fooled again.

That, too, is just a phantom created by the Summoning.

Wait!

He looks different from the one before.

Wh What's he doing?

He seems to want us to follow him.

Huh? He disappeared!

Naruto, over there.

Oh, it's the scroll!

It's starting to act up again. Hurry, Naruto!

Right!

This is...

It's the true form of the Summoned animal.

The concentration of acid is increasing.

Hey, let's hurry and wind things up!

Wait a minute.

What if, when this summoned animal goes back to where it came from,

it takes us with it, too?

We'll just have to take our chances. We gotta do this!

Right.

Did that do it?

What the?!

Naruto!

Naruto!

Over there, Naruto.

It should be possible to tear the wall at that spot.

Okay! Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Rasengan!

Naruto!

The lord of this castle must have died

resenting the people who seized the castle from him.

But, he also led us to where the scroll was hidden...

Then, does that mean that he decided to let go of his grudge?

Surely that must be the case.

What's more, he must have felt sorry for

the Summoned animal that nobly served him for fifty years,

and wanted to release it.

I see.

Then maybe he was waiting for someone

to release the Summoned animal from its spell.

And now, it has finally been able to return to its own world.

On a checkerboard night

when the stardust's are rapidly dancing

I just can't come out and say, "Ah, I don't want to go home yet."

Suggestively

Spat at that beloved face!! Mister Cricket

The Trombone gradually going off key

While on the sweaty center stage does bug me.

But more importantly, the fuzziness I feel in my undeveloped chest,

I wonder if it's from that coke I just drank?

How did it go, Bushy Brow?

Hush. He doesn't look himself.

He sure looks gloomy.

The results were bad. I'd say considerably.

Huh? "Considerably"?

It can't be helped. It must have been considerable.

Then... could it be that Bushy Brow is...?

Yes... I'm sorry but...

Then he's considerably... considerably...?!

Next time: "The Third Super-Beast!"
