C'mon!
Running like a fugitive,
Being chased by something
Inside my heart is pounding
My throat dry like it's withering
For no single one,
To none does belong,
This time is ours, right now...
Unraveling the pain,
Unraveling our hearts,
Unraveling shadows
Stifling our breath,
Reaching for beyond,
Tearing through the dark
In fighting and in love
To the distant light above,
Yes, we are on the way
I wanna rock...
Rockin' my heart
Naruto and others are out there fighting!
We should be too!
The Weapon Known as Shinobi
Old man!
Old Man Giichi!
Please open up!
Let's go to the bridge!
If we all do it together,
we can beat Gatô and his men this time!
Inari...
I made up my mind not to fight anymore.
Even your father...
The man we called a hero...
He's not with us anymore.
If we were to fight, many lives would be lost.
I don't want lose something that's special to me anymore.
No one wants to regret again.
I...
I don't want to regret again, either.
That's why we must fight!
A man should live his life without regrets.
I love Mommy and Grampa.
And you too, Old Man Giichi!
I love all the people here!
I finally realized...
Nothing is accomplished if I just cry all the time!
I finally got it!
Inari... has grown into a fine man.
Will you just let Inari go there by himself?
Open up!
Hey!
I'm asking you to fight with me!
Old man! Please listen to me!
Why...
Why won't anyone open the door to me?
You are strong!
Naruto...
Zabuza.
You were too full of yourself.
You're too ambitious for your own good.
You assassinated the Mizukage, but failed to pull off a coup.
You left the service with few men under you,
and became a Rogue Ninja.
Soon after, your name reached our Hidden Leaf Village.
You needed to raise funds to strike back.
And you needed to hide
from the Tracking Unit's pursuit and retaliation.
Isn't that about the reason why
you hired yourself out to scum like Gatô?
Zabuza...
Do you really believe I've managed to survive with just Sharingan?
Here's something I didn't copy, a technique of my own...
to enlighten you!
Lightning Blade!
What the...?!
His hand is... visibly overflowing with Chakra!
You are too dangerous.
Tazuna, the man you are trying to assassinate,
is the symbol of courage in this land!
The bridge he is building is the hope of this land!
And your ambitions will sacrifice countless lives.
That isn't how a Shinobi is supposed to behave.
Who cares?
I have always fought for my own ideals.
And that will never ever change!
I'll say it again.
Huh?
Give up.
Your future is... death!
Naruto...
I want you to kill me.
Please, make it quick.
What are you hesitating for?
I just don't get it!
The only reason you are allowed to live is because you stay strong?
There must be something other than just fighting...
There must be some other way
for you to make the others accept you!
Remember when we met at the forest? Do you know what I thought?
That you and I are much alike.
I'm sure you can relate to me.
I apologize for dirtying your hands with my blood.
Is that it?
Is there really no other way?
No.
If only... we had met under different circumstances,
we could've been friends.
Please...promise you will grasp your dream.
He too...
Sasuke also had dreams of his own!
Thank you... You will become stronger.
Hmm...
The super thick fog has finally begun to clear.
There are two over there!
They are facing off each other.
Huh?
I can't see well...
Which one is Kakashi Sensei...
One moved!
Huh?
Forgive me, Naruto...
I cannot die yet!
Is this the end...?
What was that?
Zabuza...
Did you say my future was death?
You're off the mark again, Kakashi!
No...
You're not to go to the bridge alone!
I went all over the town, but no one wants to come.
I have no choice!
But...
Wait! You're just a child!
I may be a child, but I already know what it means to fight.
Because I'm my father's son!
My dear...
Wait a moment, Inari!
Where did he go...?
I didn't notice, but the fog is starting to lift...
Huh? Is he over there?
Huh?!
What the heck is going on here?!
Isn't that the masked boy?
I didn't expect him to jump in to save Zabuza...
The boy...is already dead.
You did great, Haku.
Kakashi Sensei!
He intends to slash me along with the boy?!
That was really a great find I made!
Even in his final moment,
he gave me such a perfect opportunity!
Haku, bad news.
I have to leave Land of Water as of tonight.
However, I'll return to this land someday.
I will rule over this land.
To do that,
what I need isn't consolation, encouragement or empty words.
What I really need is...
I already know.
You have nothing to fear.
I am your weapon, Zabuza.
Keep me by you as a mere tool that heeds your every word.
You're a good boy!
Haku died and you were able to move, huh?
I won't forgive you!
Naruto!
You just stay there and watch!
This is...
my battle!
Naruto...
Naruto! It's good to see you!
Sakura...
Where's Sasuke?
Naruto! Where is Sasuke?
Sakura...
Kakashi!
You have no time to take your eyes off me!
Why don't I go with you?
That way, you won't be going against your Sensei's word.
Right...
Sasuke...
Huh?!
He's cold.
This isn't Genjutsu, is it?
Don't mind me.
This isn't the time to hold back your emotions...
I I always got perfect scores at the Ninja Academy...
Huh?
I memorized all the hundreds of Shinobi rules.
All the tests were a breeze.
Until one day, this question came up...
State Rule # 25 of the Ways of the Shinobi...
As always, I simply wrote down the answer without batting an eye.
"A Shinobi must never show his true feelings
under any circumstances, no matter what...
The mission always comes first.
A Ninja must have the strength of character never to shed any tears..."
Is this...how it must be for a Shinobi?
That is so unbearably painful...
Sasuke...
Why...? Why can't I keep up?
Darn you!
Why you...!
You can't possibly defeat me the way you are now.
What was that?
You still don't know... What true strength means!
Let's see how things are going...
Goodbye, Demon!
Both your arms have now been disabled.
You can't even weave a sign.
Huh?
Oh! You really got it this time.
You disappoint me, Zabuza.
Huh?! You!
What the heck are you doing?!
Don't you have anything to say, Zabuza?!
He was your comrade, right?!
You were always, always together, weren't you?
He really liked you, you know!
You really don't feel anything?!
