[groan]

Huh?

Naruto!

[grunt]

[gasps]

Yes! You have regained consciousness!

Oh, thank goodness!

Where am I?

Is everyone okay?

We were all about to head back to the village.

For some reason, the enemy has retreated.

Yeah. Even though we were at a disadvantage...

We think their goal was to deliver Sasuke to Orochimaru.

Although, that's really little more than a hunch.

Uh... But where's Sasuke? What happened to Sasuke, guys?!

When I finally caught up with you, the only thing I found was you, unconscious.

[grunt]

I'm sorry, but... we couldn't track them due to the rain.

Oh, I see...

[grunt]

Yeah, but... I promised Sakura that I'd bring Sasuke back...

[grunt]

Hey, just take it easy!

No way! I mean, I can't just sit around here doing nothing, you know!

[crows squawking]

Huh...

♪

I've sent Kotetsu and Izumo home.

But just to be safe,... Kakashi is going to stay overnight.

Yes, I understand. Well, that's a relief.

Urgent news!

Someone has just managed to infiltrate the village!

[gasp]

You are...

It's been a long time, Lady Tsunade...

Do you know him?

Wait, you're that boy from long ago that Jiraiya saved, the one from the Hidden Rain.

Yahiko, right?

It seems you do remember me, then...

However, I'm now known as Pain.

Yahiko?! The one from the Hizashi incident three years ago?!

So why did you sneak into our village now?

Our pain is twofold. First...

...from the Five Great Nations...

...and the Five Great Villages...

The pain of being trampled...the pain of all the people that you killed.

And secondly, the pain in our hearts caused by the Leaf's betrayal.

...Our pain... will become the whole world's pain!

No...

True Planetary Devastation!

[loud engulfing noise]

[grunt]

[gasp]

What is that thing?!

Shikamaru! Explain what's going on here!

Well, as you can see... this is something ^ that seems to defy explanation-and reality...

Hey, Neji! Is everyone in the village still safe?

I mean, can you confirm what's inside that big thing with your Byakugan?

Of course. I'm on it now.

I can see chakra, and it seems to be coming from the villagers.

So they're okay inside there?!

It appears so, but I'm not entirely positive.

[grunt]

Naruto!

What do you think you're doing?! In your condition?!

I don't know what kind of jutsu that is, but I'm gonna undo it right now!

Huh?

Hey, Sakura...! I'm glad you're okay!

I was out on a mission, and I just got back.

But what's going on here? What happened to the village?

We don't know! We just got back here, too.

But we have to find the guy who did this and rescue everyone!

So, let's do this!

That's crazy! You shouldn't even move in your condition!

Everyone in the village is inside of that thing!

We can't just sit around down here and twiddle our thumbs!

[gasp]... All right, kneel down!

Huh?!

C'mon! Just kneel down!

You need to recover first.

Oh, right.

(Thinking) Okay... I'll use this time to...

What's this?! What's happening here?

Seems the power supply was cut, and the emergency back-up system was activated.

I can't teleport outside the village?

The wall... is it closing in?!

At this rate-- A simple Earth Style will do!

Use a rock pillar as a support to stop it from closing in further!

The Akimichi Clan will use their Super Expansion Jutsu to push the wall back!

[yell]

[grunts] I'll do whatever it takes to hold it back!

Leaf Police Force! Our priority is to keep the villagers safe!

Now, go!

We will protect the Hidden Leaf Village! We will stop this wall, no matter what it takes!

[charging up yell]

Physical attacks don't have any effect at all!

[explosions]

Everyone has reacted swiftly and jumped in to help!

Minato! This is a special Sealing Jutsu!

If this keeps up, everyone'll be crushed by the mass of stone around us, ya know!!

Everyone is pushing it back. But you're right, it's only a matter of time...

We have to figure out what we can to do about the jutsu caster...

(Kushina thought) Lord Fourth!

[gasp]

Huh?

I have an idea to try. Kushina, please stay here with these two for right now, okay?

Flying Raijin Jutsu!

Lord Third, sir!

Yes, Minato?

We think this is a sealing attack by the enemy.

And unless this jutsu... is countered with another jutsu of equal strength...

...everyone inside here will be crushed.

Just as I suspected...

I was thinking that we could try using the Four Crimson Ray Formation.

But I'm going to need your help to do that, Lord Hiruzen...

Right. Yes, let's try it.

Wait, Lord Fourth, I know Tsunade has power equal to a Hokage

But that's only three of us.

The Four Crimson Ray Formation requires four people.

Kushina also possesses the Nine Tails' chakra.

And she has far more experience with Sealing Jutsu than anyone else here right now...

Rivaling even that of a Hokage.

Yeah, but this Sealing Jutsu is too strong for the Four Crimson Ray Formation!

I mean, even a Tailed Beast would have a really difficult time trying to suppress it, ya know.

[explosion]

There's no time left!

If we combine our strength with everyone who's pushing back against the wall, at least we might be able to buy some time!

So we buy time, but then what?

Unless we can stop the jutsu, this solves nothing!

We'll think of something definitive in that time!

Please get to the village's four corners.

[groan] All right.

Shizune, your job now is to tend to the wounded!

Understood.

[crumbling and cracking]

Four Crimson Ray Formation!

(Thinking) All right, everyone, hang in there...

If we can buy some time, there's still hope.

[exhale]

Awesome, Sakura! Thanks to you, I think I'm fully recovered now!

[gasp]

Why, that...!

Hey, wait, Naruto! Don't rush in like that!

You just recovered a second ago!

This kid is just hopeless...

Summoning Jutsu!

So, was it you guys? Are you the ones who wrecked the village?!

[attack yell]

First of all, I'm gonna beat up every last one of you guys

and then we're gonna talk!

That guy is...!

Naruto! That guy's Yahiko!

He was a part of Team Jiraiya.

Wait, you destroyed that village back then!

You say you're Pervy Sage's students?!

We're the Akatsuki. And I'm Tendo Pain.

What...

We cast off the name Jiraiya the moment the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf burned that village

and everything inside of it to the ground...

...just to hide the embarrassment that occurred there.

What are you talking about? You were the ones who destroyed that entire village!

We have proof. And now, to render judgment...

...for the pain caused to the weak.

The pain of death... the pain of my friends... my precious friends...

The Hokage and the people of the Hidden Leaf Village... will get to taste pain!

I'll settle this right now!

[explosion]

[gasps]

[wince] Naruto!

Summoning Jutsu!

Naruto...!

[Gasp] What are you doing?!

You can't! That Pain guy isn't an opponent we can deal with.

Naruto, however...

That's amazing.

Summoning Jutsu!

Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Sage Art: Giant Rasengan!

You're right. It's a different level...

But still, I cannot just stand here watching this!

If we get a chance, we must assist him!

[grunt]

I see... That's Sage Jutsu. So you've mastered the same jutsu as Jiraiya Sensei.

You're no student of Pervy Sage's, not with what you guys are doing!

Now I'm gonna pulverize you! Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Sage Art: Rasen Shuriken!

[panting breaths]

As I suspected... Sage Mode lasts no more than five minutes...

What's this?!

Universal Pull.

[gasp] Argh!

[gasps]

(Thinking) He's sucking all the Sage Jutsu chakra right out of me!

This'll be just perfect...!

[grunt]

[cry of pain]

(Thinking) What was that? Is someone watching?

So tell me, has this tamed you, my sibling student...?

Naruto! I am coming to help you!

Almighty Push!

Arghhh!

Lee!

[gasp]

[gasp]

I won't let you hurt Naruto anymore!

That's right! Hinata was on a mission outside the village!

Why did you come out here?! Just run!

You can't win!

I'm not afraid to die right here... if it means I can protect you!

And that's because Naruto is my-

(Tendo Pain) Almighty Push!

[screams]

(Tendo Pain) I've experienced it countless times, right before my eyes,

so close I could feel their breath...

...people dear to me dying...

Share my pain!

Yes, it was just like this...

My parents killed right in front of my eyes by Hidden Leaf shinobi...

[growl]

The power of Nine-Tails...

Rage summons him forth...

Do you hate me now?

[roar]

As you wish...

[roar]

Almighty Push!

He withstood my Almighty Push! And the recoil hit me!

(Thinking) Naruto...

No way! That's six tails!

Universal Pull!

[explosion]

The Nine-Tails' power... It's magnificent!

[roar]

Planetary Devastation!

(Kushina) What? Something inside of me is...

(Minato) Kushina, what's wrong?

(Kushina) It's the Nine Tails! Usually, I'm able to keep it stabilized

(Kushina) but it's irritated and unsettled right now.

(Minato) Is it because you're expending so much chakra for the Four Crimson Rays?

(Kushina) That's not it! I can also feel that...

(Naruto) Next time on Naruto Shippuden: "Comrade."

(Kushina) There's something happening to the other Nine Tails!
