Come on!

WHOA!

I feel like I can't breathe.

One shallow breath, one tiny movement of the eye is enough to draw his attack.

It's suffocating.

If it goes on like this, I'll go insane.

The clash of two Jonin intent to attack.

I've never felt anything so chilling. It's as if my own life is being choked

off. No, I can't take it. I'd rather...

Sasuke! Calm down.

I'll protect you with my life. All of you.

I will not allow my comrade to die.

Trust me.

I wouldn't be so sure.

It's over.

Don't worry.

The water clone children can't be...

Don't move.

Now it's over.

The Oath of Pain!

You're finished.

All right!

Huh?

Finished.

You really don't get it, do you? Your technique is nothing but a crass

imitation. I'll never be defeated by a mere copycat ninja like you.

full of surprises though.

You'd already copied my water clone jutsu when you made your little speech.

I'll protect you with my life.

All of you.

Very skillfully executed.

You made your clone say those words to draw my attention while you hid in

the mist waiting for me to make my move.

Nice try.

But I'm not that easy to fool.

Hey, that one's a clone, too!

Now!

Muckabishy spikes.

Trying to slow me down.

Foolish.

Sensei! I can't believe Kakashi Sensei got kicked through the air like that.

He has great physical skill, too.

This isn't normal water. It's dense.

Heavy.

Fool.

Water prison jutsu!

No!

Escaping into the water? Bad mistake.

This prison is made of water, but it's stronger than steel.

It's hard to fight when you can't move.

So much for the great Kakashi.

I'll finish you off later.

But first, your little friends will have to be eliminated.

Water Clone Jutsu!

He's even more skilled than I thought.

You think wearing a headband makes you a ninja?

When you've hovered between life and death so many times it doesn't faze you,

then you may be called a ninja.

When you've become so deadly, your profile is entered in my bingo book.

Then you may have earned the title Ninja.

But to call upstarts like you Ninja is a joke.

He disappeared again.

You're

just brats.

Get the bridge builder and run! You can't win this fight!

He's using all his power to keep me in this prison, so he can only fight you

with his water clone.

But the clone can't go far from his real body. If you get away from him, he

can't follow. Now run!

Run away?

Not an option.

That became unthinkable the moment you got caught.

No matter how fast we run or how far we go, he'll track us down.

out if we try a manji defense formation he can get around it in an instant

in the end if we're on our own

we're finished our only chance of survival is to rescue you

we've got to do it

What a Joninian.

A true elite ninja.

I've got to get away.

If I don't...

Never back down again.

And let someone else rescue me.

I will never run away.

You're not hurt, are you?

Scaredy cat.

And I will not lose the thought day.

your headband. Come on, please.

Oh, this?

No way.

You can only wear the leaf headband when you graduate from the academy and

become a ninja.

Naruto, come over here for a minute.

I've got something special I want to give you.

Congratulations.

You graduate.

That's what happens. An enemy takes a hostage and you have an impossible

On every mission, your life is on the line.

You pass.

I'm not the little brat who used to pull pranks all the time. I'm a ninja now,

and I want a ninja mission.

To be the greatest Hokage. Then the whole village will stop disrespecting me

start treating me like I'm somebody.

Somebody important.

That's right.

I'm a ninja now.

Believe it.

I swore an oath of pain!

I won't run away!

Huh?

Naruto, no!

Hey, you. The freak with no eyebrows.

Put this in your bingo book.

The ninja that will become Hokage of the village, hidden in the leaves.

He never backed down.

His name's Naruto Uzulaki.

Naruto.

I thought he was all tough, but this kid's got guts.

All right, Sasuke.

Listen up. Can you hear me?

Yeah, I hear you. I've got a plan.

Now he's got a plan?

Okay.

So you're finally thinking about teamwork, huh?

Why do I have the feeling Naruto's so determined?

All right, now, guys.

Let go wild!

Ready? Let's bring this guy down.

Big words for such a little man.

You think your plan's going to keep you in the game?

Isn't it good?

What are you doing? I told you to run! This fight was over the moment I got

caught. Now take off!

Your mission is not to prove how brave you are. It's to save the bridge

Stay on mission!

Bridge builder?

Well, I guess this all happened because of me.

Because of my desire to live.

But I won't let that stand in your way now.

Forget about me and do what you have to do.

Go ahead and fight to save your sensei.

Alright, you hear that?

Yeah, believe it. You ready?

You really haven't learned anything, have you?

Still playing your little game, pretending to be ninja?

When I was your age, this hand had already crushed many opponents.

Zabuja, the demon.

Oh, so I was in your book too, huh?

Long ago, in the village hidden in the mist, also known as Blood Mist Village,

before a student could become a ninja, there was one final test.

Do you know about the graduation exam?

What graduation exam?

What's the big deal, anyway?

We had graduation tests, too.

Did you have to kill the other students to pass?

Huh?

Imagine young ninja like you, eating together, training together, and then

the final exam.

Only they change the rules.

Kill or be killed.

You can't stop while your opponent still breathes. He was your friend, shared

your dreams.

Now it's him or you.

Ten years ago, in the village hidden in the mist, the graduation exam changed.

One year before, a dark evil had filled the school with terror.

What's he saying?

What evil?

What kind of change? What caused the terror?

Without pause or hesitation, a young boy who was not even a ninja approached the

class and took down over a hundred other students.

to advance.

He's too powerful. There's no way to defeat him.

I'm not giving up. I've still got this.

So that was your plan.

Not bad, Naruto.

Demon Wind Shuriken!

Windmill of Shadows!

A shuriken?

You'll never touch me with that.

The clone and aimed for my real body.

Smart.

But not in my nut.

Huh?

A second shuriken in the shadow of the first. The Shadow Shuriken Jutsu.

The second shuriken's on target, and he can't catch this one.

I told you a shuriken can't touch me.

He dodged it!

Hmm.

Thank you. Thank you.

Yeah,

I did it. The plan worked. A ninja must see through deception.

But Zabuza had no clue what I was up to. I totally fooled him. You saw it. The

hidden leaf fighting style of Naruto Uzumaki.

Believe it.

All right, Sensei, we got you free. Now the rest is up to you.

Next time, Kakashi, Sharingan Warrior.

Don't miss my first big victory!
