Original subtitles

I consider you a friend.

In the past, friend was just a word to me. Nothing more, nothing less.

But after meeting you, I realized something.

What's important is the meaning of that word.

What does it mean to you?

You must decide for yourself what you can do for Sasuke. Think hard on that.

Danzo. I wonder what kind of jutsu he uses.

(ct shocked reax)

Whoa! What's up with his right arm?!

He's got multiple Sharingan embedded in it!? How gross!

How did you get those eyes in your right arm?

Well, in various ways. It's a long story.

Any explanation would probably make me angrier anyway.

Never mind. I've already decided to kill you.

But there is one thing I want to ask you first.

Is it true that Itachi slaughtered the whole Uchiha Clan,

Because he was following orders you and the other Hidden Leaf elders gave him?

What?

[impressed] O~oh!

That's Sasuke's?

I see. So this is the Susano'o.

Danzo's Right Arm

So, what do you think we should do now?

I think the first thing we have to do is return to the Hidden Leaf

and discuss what happened at the Five Kage Summit.

And talk about Sakura.

The real me will continue to go forward with Sakura, and keep her away from Sasuke.

Please do not worry about her.

Then again, it would probably be better to talk her down in person and bring her back home.

Hmm.

All right!

Yamato, you take Naruto and head back to the Leaf Village.

I'm gonna go bring Sakura back.

She's just no match for Sasuke. Going after him is suicide.

I'll send my Ninja Hounds to report on the Summit. Since it's urgent.

I understand.

Sai. Guide me to where Sakura is right now.

Yes, sir.

[Naruto] What the hell do you guys want?

We just overheard the three of you talking about Sasuke Uchiha.

We want to know about him, and you're gonna tell us.

Why? What does all of this have to do with you Cloud ninja anyway?

A whole lot! 'Cause Sasuke Uchiha of the Leaf,

Assaulted the Hidden Cloud Village!

[gasp] [gasp]

You heard him; your Rogue Shinobi kidnapped our beloved master!

We don't even know if he's dead or alive!

That's a lie!

Sasuke...

Why would he ever do something like that?!

How the hell should we know the Akatsuki's motives?!

The Akatsuki?! What are you talking about?

Ugh! You guys are trying my patience!

Of course, Sasuke's a member of the Akatsuki!

It's because you let your Rogue Ninja run loose that Lord Raikage dispatched us here!

We've already gotten the Hokage's permission to get rid of him!

Sasuke kidnapped their master?

We will avenge our master!

We're going to take down Sasuke!

Itachi Uchiha. His whole life was about self-sacrifice.

He died for Sasuke. and for the Hidden Leaf Village as well.

Sasuke lost everything, and ended up all alone.

The price paid for peace in the Hidden Leaf Village.

Can you blame Sasuke?

Sasuke's goal now is to wreak vengeance upon the Hidden Leaf for what they did to Itachi and to the entire Uchiha clan.

Everything he does is for revenge.

He's the real thing. A true avenger!

That hate...

That is Sasuke's Ninja Way!

They'll dispose of Sasuke themselves.

Your comrades are all committed. And are ready to move.

Sakura isn't a fool. Or a child who doesn't understand the circumstances. And the situation.

She's planning to kill Sasuke herself.

And if you've truly resolved to become a Kage,

Then you're going to have to do what needs to be done as Sasuke's friend.

Huh?

Naruto! What's the matter?!

Calm down, Naruto!

He's hyperventilating!

Slow your breathing down!

Naruto!

Naruto. Can you hear me? Naruto? Naruto!

I'll ask once more!

Is it true that Itachi eliminated my clan, following orders that were given to him by you and the Hidden Leaf Elders?

I asked you if it's true!

[squeezed] Ghhh!

Answer me now!

I...

I didn't think that he was that kind of man.

Curse him.

Itachi told you everything before he died, didn't he!

It seems... you alone... really were... special.

[Madara] He gave you a reason to seek revenge against him, and hoped it would make you stronger.

I have acted like the older brother you desired for one reason.

Because I wanted to discover how powerful you were.

I needed to find a worthy opponent to test the limits of my own abilities.

You have that unique potential.

Now I've made you hate me. Now you have the desire to defeat me.

Which is exactly why I am going to allow you to live.

Don't you see? It's all for my own benefit.

My foolish little brother.

If you wish to kill me one day, in hate, and revenge,

Surviving in such an unsightly manner as this.

By all means, flee. Cling to your wretched life.

And then, one day, when you possess the same eyes.

Come back and face me!!

[Madara] He wanted you to believe that the Uchiha was a proud clan from the Hidden Leaf Village.

He begged the Hokage to make sure you would never learn the truth.

And from the moment he left the village, he resigned himself to battling you to the death.

You really have gotten stronger, Sasuke.

In order to bestow upon you new powers,

He accepted disgrace in the place of honor, and hatred in the place of love.

And yet Itachi still died with a smile on his face.

He bequeathed to you the Uchiha name, still fooling you to the very end.

More lies! Everything you say is a lie!

You answer me!

I didn't think... Itachi...

was the kind of man who would reveal the secrets that had been entrusted to him.

That means... that it's true, then?!

Self-sacrifice. that's what epitomizes a shinobi.

Never seeing the light of day, toiling in the shadows. That's the way of a true shinobi.

[Danzo] And not just Itachi. Countless shinobi have died the same way.

This world could not function on ideals and pleasantries.

No, it's entirely thanks to people like him that peace has been maintained.

People like you who've misconstrued Itachi's will wouldn't understand.

Still, Itachi revealing such a secret to you makes him a traitor to the Leaf.

Don't speak any further about Itachi.

[Danzo] [no longer choking] Sure.

Next let's battle with our eyes instead.

What's going on?! He should've died earlier!

I only sense one chakra with Danzo's signature. That's definitely not a clone!

Just as I thought. Susano'o.

That's splendid armor to protect yourself with.

And the power in its attack is incredible.

He escaped again! If that wasn't a clone either, then, is it genjutsu?

I don't sense any disturbance in Sasuke's chakra, and my chakra is stable, too.

If neither of us is trapped in a genjutsu,

Then what sort of jutsu is this?!

Amaterasu!

Aaagh! Rrrgh! [choke]

[panting]

First Susano'o and now Amaterasu.

That's too much just to test Danzo's power. He's going to tire himself out.

Uh!

[inhale]

Behind you! Look out!

Wind Style: Vacuum Bullets!

Sasuke!

Summoning Jutsu!

[relieved sigh]

Hmm! A new summoning. When did you get that?

[panting]

The Amaterasu. Haven't seen that in a while.

You're Itachi's younger brother, that's for sure.

[gasp]

You've taken over Itachi's jutsu.

I told you not to say another word about him!

Two brothers whose abilities are identical.

How could what your eyes perceive be so different?

Just admit it: the truth about Itachi isn't important to you at all.

Instead you simply want to destroy everything with your hatred.

All you're doing is making the sacrifice of the Uchiha Clan meaningless.

You have no right whatsoever to speak about the Uchiha!

[inhale]

Wind Style! Vacuum Blast!

[inhale]

Sasuke!

What's going on?

No way!

It's useless.

Huh?

What?! But how?!

Itachi?!

[Danzo] Why did you ever believe that it was necessary to save the life of such trash, Itachi?

He's misinterpreted your intentions, he charges ahead with hatred as his only rationale. He is a fool.

Take a good look, Itachi. This boy is your ultimate mistake, without a doubt.

[Naruto] Next time on Naruto Shippuden: The Forbidden Visual Jutsu.

[Danzo] But now, I will correct your mistake.

Yeeeeee!

Finally! It is time for me to be the star of a mini corner!

And now that I am here, I am going to make sure you feel the eagerness,

the friendship, the sweat, the struggle, the gutsiness--

[Neji] Palm Heel Strike!

Huaaahh!

At least you were in the main story; I'm barely in this show at all anymore!

So I'm taking over this mini-corner.

Aww!

No! I'm not going to let you do this by yourself, Neji.

[Tenten] If we're doing a mini-corner, why not feature me, a cute, strong, popular--

[Guy] You idiots!

We've all had little screen time recently. You know it's true!

Guy Sensei...

Hmph.

Therefore!

Allow me to present a hot, hip, youthful, awesome mini-corner! It's a little something I call--

Stop it! You just want to show off!

Oh, who are you kidding?!

Me, Might Guy!

With the power of youth going at a great ultra super full swing, I'll keep everyone--
