[sigh] Whew! All done!

[chuckle] Everything's nice and clean now!

Wow, you really cleaned Naruto's room?!

That's right! Naruto's been away for three whole years,

and it really needed it!

His place is spotless!

It's ready to welcome him home and so are we!

[gasp]

Naruto, is that you?!

Hm?

[chuckle]

Been a while, huh, Sakura?

Hey! Naruto!

Sexy Jutsu!

[scream]

Well, what do you think? Not too bad in the curves

department there, huh!

Konohamaru... I'm not that scrawny litle kid anymore.

And you shouldn't be using jutsu like that either.

Huh?

Just face it, that jutsu is totally weak!

Now step aside and get a load 'a my brand spankin'

new pervy Ninjutsu!

Are you kidding me?!

We don't see each other for two years and you pull a stunt like that?!

Oh man, I thought that you'd be a little impressed, at least.

[laugh] Well, my training involved way more awesome

jutsu than that!

That's just what I'd expect from you! Everything's going

exactly according to plan!

Plan?

[chuckle]

Wow!

No way! What happened?!

Isn't it obvious? I cleaned your entire

house until it sparkled.

Thanks, Konohamaru! You're such a great guy!

Yup! And I don't even expect you to teach me a new jutsu

in return either!

I have no ulterior motives at all!

Right. Could you be more obvious?!

But okay! I'll teach you an absolutely amazing jutsu!

All right!

Hold on. First, let me just put my things way.

Huh?

Isn't that your old outfit?

Yeah, it doesn't really fit me anymore, but I just can't

bring myself to part with it...

So you could say, it's kinda like a treasure to you!

When you put it that way, it's embarrassing.

[chuckle] Hm.

The new jutsu I'm gonna teach you is like nothing

you've seen before; it's totally different and cool!

I wonder what kind of Sexy Jutsu it is!

Well, c'mon! Show me already!

The first step's "rotation"!

Whoa! So we're going to add motion to it, huh?!

That's right. And the second step's "power!"

Oh, I see: attack with the risqué! Awesome!

And then third, comes the final step.

Seriously?! There's still more?!

Containment!

Oh-ho! The most points go to the best cute expression, eh?!

What are you talking about?! Quit kidding!

But it's a Pervy Ninjutsu, right?

No way! It's better!

It's an A-Rank jutsu, and it's seriously hard to master.

This is a super advanced Ninjutsu that combines

Chakra rotation, power, and containment.

It's called Rasengan!

So awesome!

But I don't understand what happened!

How'd you do that?!

[chuckle]

Don't you worry about that!

Because I'm gonna teach you, Konohamaru!

And, you can do this jutsu even if you're stupid!

No kidding?!

Huh?

Stupid?!

To complete this training, you just have to make it

through three steps.

First, we need a water balloon.

A water balloon?!

The "gaah!" is first you, then you "bam" it!

Oh! Wow! So, how'd you do that?!

What do you mean? I just explained it.

First, you have to "gah" it, then "bam" it to burst it!

Uh...

I said...

You just "gah" it and, then, you "bam" it! Simple, right?

Uh...

Okay, do your best, Konohamaru!

What, seriously?! That's it?!

You're just gonna leave, like that?!

I have to go train with Sakura now.

Yeah, but...

Come on, Konohamaru. Don't be a baby.

Uh...

Like anything, you've got to learn by doing and feeling.

Oh...

And besides, I have faith that you'll be able

to do it, no problem!

Big Brother Naruto...

All right, I'm gonna do it! Just watch me!

The next time you see me, Big Brother, you're going to

get a really big surprise!

Okay, first I go "Gaah" and then "bam!"

"Gaaaah" and then "bam!"

"Gaaaah" and then "bam!" "Gaaaah" and then "bam!"

"Gaaaah" and then "bam!"

"Gaaaah" and then "bam!" "Gaaaah" and then "bam!"

Lady Tsunade! Terrible news!

Now what is it?!

We've just received a message! The Hidden Sand's

Kazekage has been abducted by a group called the Akatsuki!

[gasps]

Gaara was...

Team Kakashi, I'm hereby assigning you to a new mission.

You're to go to the Sand Village at once, find out

what's going on, and keep us informed.

You're to remain there and follow their orders.

Give them any backup they need.

Right!

"Gaaaah" and then "bam!"

I can get the water inside rotating, but...

There he is! Hey, Konohamaru!

Huh? What? Oh, hey, what's going on, you guys?

It's terrible! Some guys called the Akatsuki

kidnapped the Kazekage of the Hidden Sand!

The Kazekage? Big Brother Naruto's friend?

Yeah! And Naruto just left as part of the Hidden Leaf

Village support team!

Huh?

Isn't it awesome?! The minute he gets back, he gets

picked for no less than an S-rank mission!

Cool, huh?! Even though he's only a genin, just like we are!

Hm?

[grunting]

"Gah" and "bam" ú aren't enough to figure this thing out!

Hey! What are you doing, anyway, Konohamaru?

How long have you guys been watching?!

[giggle]

So this is the reason for your weird yells, huh?

Come on! They're not weird!

Well, maybe they are a little bit embarrassing.

I mean, "gah" and "bam"- what do they mean?!

Maybe you just need to take a step back from

it for a little while.

Huh? I don't understand...

Well, Naruto tends to do things intuitively, by feel.

But not everyone learns in the same way.

Mhm...

Yeah, you could try it a different way.

I guess...

Okay, the first step is rotation, and he said I'd

have to learn it by feeling it.

That's it!

Okay! Konohamaru!

Let's just focus on practicing that part first!

Uh, yeah, okay!

Anyway, that's what's up. Can you please help?

To be honest, I don't really understand what you're

talking about.

Are you sure about this?

Yes, absolutely!

Please, I have to do this if I'm gonna learn this new jutsu!

All right, then, you got it!

You sold me with your determination.

Come on!

[attacking yell] Huh?!

Fang Over Fang!

[screaming]

So did it help, Konohamaru?

Uh... Everything just...

Well, okay, then! On to the next thing!

Please, help us!

All right, if that's the case.

Bring it on!

Try this out! Human Boulder! [growling]

Next one!

Okay! You ready, Konohamaru?

Go!

Wait a second!

Uh... Huh?

Aw, but Hinata this is to help Konohamaru

learn a new jutsu!

No, it isn't that.

It's just I can't use rotation!

Huh? Well, okay!

Hm.

I understand.

Hold on! Understand what?!

8 Trigrams Air Palm!

This doesn't make any sense!

Idiot! Idiot!

Next up is...

Hold on! I can't keep doing this kind of thing, you know!

You're right. But have you figured anything out?

Nothing. Not at all...

Did Big Brother Naruto tell you anything else?

He said he taught me everything I needed to know.

But the only thing that he's ever really taught me was

the Sexy Jutsu.

Oh! Wait a minute.

What's up?

Well he dissed my Sexy Jutsu, and he told me that it was

totally weak.

So maybe if I escalate the sexiness, it'll all come

together nicely!

Konohamaru! That's gotta be it!

Really? You think?

But the problem is how are you going to go about making

it even sexier than it already is?

There's only one man who holds the key to that!

Anyway, that's it!

I see. So you're practicing a new jutsu, huh?

Yeah, but I've hit a really big wall.

Please, Sensei! If I'm gonna be able to get over it, then

I'll need your help!

[whimpering]

It's so unlike Konohamaru to be this determined. Well, I

have no choice but to do my best to help him!

Of course I'd be happy to help you, Konohamaru!

What exactly is it that you want to know?

About sexiness!

I want you to teach me everything that you know

about sexiness!

Oh. Yes, of course. All I know about sexiness.

Wait, what?! Did you say sexiness just now?!

Big Brother Naruto told us...

[laugh]

If Old Man Jiraiya is the all-out-in-the-open pervert,

then you're the closet pervert, Ebisu Sensei!

Gah! That Naruto and his big, dumb mouth!

You're the only one I can turn to, Sensei!

I need that secret side of you to come out in the open!

But, I, uh...

We found something, Konohamaru!

What?!

Looks like a secret textbook!

No!

Hey, look! There's more!

No!

Here, too! Oh, and over here!

Wow, there's so many of them.

This is great! It's like a secret library or something!

And look! There's stacks of textbooks in the attic, too!

We should check under the floorboards!

Thank you, Ebisu Sensei!

This is way more than we ever imagined!

Now you can continue your training!

That look...

Behind those eyes, the eyes of an innocent girl.

The feeling lurking there was contempt!

Awesome! There's so many different kinds!

Boy, closet perverts don't mess around, do they?

I think I'm starting to see Sensei in a different light.

The problem now is that there are way too many of

them to choose from.

How about this one?

[chuckle]

Well, it does have the rotation part.

I'll try it! Here goes!

[giggle] Uh...

You're not good at that.

Anyway, time to do the real jutsu now!

Right! Here goes!

This time...

I'll do it!

Idiot! Idiot!

[giggle] So? How's this, huh?!

This time, I'm gonna do it for real!

I saw something go bloop just now.

You're right! It's different than it was before!

Hm...

Wait, that's right, when Big Brother Naruto burst it...

Oh! Wow!

The surface of his balloon went bloop like

this one just did.

Then, go on! Try it again but with some more finesse!

Okay! Yeah!

I'm gonna do this!

[grunting]

How was that?!

No way, you actually did it, Konohamaru!

I mean, it's a little different, but...

Okay, so we get to move on to step two now, right?

Oh, man! [giggle]

It was worth it, training hard while you were away in

the Hidden Sand, Big Brother!

Yeah! On to the next step, then!

Now, for the second step.

Use this!

A rubber ball?

Yeah, exactly! What you do is "guh" it and then "boom"

it to burst it!

That's it!

Not this again! Although I expected it!

That's really all I get about step two?!

Now, don't be like that, Konohamaru.

This jutsu...

Just has to be learned by doing it, is that it?

See? You get it!

But I wish I could stick around and supervise your training.

Uh... You just got back and now you're going out on

another mission?!

From this last mission, we learned that Orochimaru had

a spy embedded with Sasori.

Orochimaru?!

So, then?

If things go well on this next one, we might find a

clue about Sasuke.

We're gonna lure the spy out and make him talk!

He's so casual about it, but this mission has to be an

A-rank or higher.

Big Brother really is amazing.

Huh?

Don't worry! I've got natural talent, so I don't

need your help, Big Brother!

Good luck on your mission!

[chuckle] Thanks!

I'm gonna keep getting better, too!

I'm gonna do this!

This jutsu's really hard, isn't it?

You've gotta get the power right. You said that's what

this step's about.

[sigh]

Man, the rubber ball is a whole lot harder! Because

it's empty, I can't get the feel of it!

So what should we use as a reference this time?

I'm positive that this one's better!

No way! It's this one for sure!

But my mom says that guys have a weakness

for ones like these! They can't help themselves.

Come on! For power, it's gotta be this one!

Actually, I think this woman looks like the strongest.

We just can't seem to agree on this one, can we?

I think I get it. So, you feel that you lost some

respect due to something that happened recently.

That's right, and I just don't know what I

can do about it now.

It's okay. Everyone makes mistakes every

now and again!

You know, there's always a chance to put things right.

Thank you, Iruka.

I say for now, we should just calmly support

Konohamaru and his progress.

[chuckle]

There you are!

We've been looking for you!

Well, well! What perfect timing! We were just

talking about you!

Please, Ebisu Sensei, there's something else we

need you to help us with!

It's really important!

What, me again?!

This is perfect! What a wonderful opportunity!

This is your chance to regain their trust!

You guys!

Don't tell me!

Wha-?!

[giggle]

What do you think?

I'm not holding anything back! [chuckle]

Which girl do you think...

...Is the best?

Please! You gotta tell us!

[screaming]

What?! Such depravity! In public?!

I won't tolerate this, this...

...this, immoral behavior!

What in the world are you fools up to?!

But we had to!

To master my new jutsu, I had to find a way

to make it even sexier.

Is what he's saying true, Ebisu Sensei?

I've no idea!

However, a jutsu is like a secret weapon for a ninja!

It's not something you use recklessly,

not even a Sexy Jutsu!

You hold it in until the last minute, and, only then,

release it! And that's how you get the

maximum result out of it!

Hold it 'til the last minute, and only then release it?

Huh?

Ebisu Sensei!

What's the matter now?!

Is this what you're talking about?

Hold it with "guh", then burst it with "boom!"

[screaming]

Well, that definitely looked powerful!

Awesome!

Leave it to Ebisu Sensei the closet perv!

I can do this! Hold it, with "guh", then

burst it with "boom"!

[power yell]

Boom!

Uh?

Hey! It expanded right away that time!

Yeah! It's working!

But it still didn't burst!

Big Brother Naruto is just so far ahead of me!

Even now, he's out there trying to get stronger.

So I will, too!

Ouch!

Are you okay, Konohamaru?!

This is bad. Your hand is a mess from all of that

compressed chakra.

I'll take care of it right now.

It was bound to take its toll on you. You've been

training for days on end, you know!

Damn it!

I wasn't strong enough to bring him back. Next time,

with my Wind Chakra, I'll be able to surpass Sasuke!

You're so cool, Big bro Naruto!

And that is exactly why you're my rival!

So how are you doing, Konohamaru?

Next time on Naruto Shippuden: "Naruto's Rival"

Here I go! Hold it in with a "guh!" and "boom"!
