Connecting old words that have been used up
I just want to convey my simple thoughts
That day's faint wind blows away
at the castle ruins of yesterday
I'll laugh with you and live for the moment
Still that incident will continue to trouble you, right?
That's why it must be good bye
Leaving nothing behind, let us share what is left
In time, we'll realize that it was everything
And sadness will touch our cheeks, creating a river of tears
Trembling thoughts swept into a vortex and melting away
Damn!
Pretty impressive...
You timed it well to scatter the three to attack.
You must have practiced quite a bit, huh?
Since it is a pretty complicated song...
Well...
Not only did you immediately understand
that I'm manipulating these guys with my flute
but you understood how difficult this song is.
You're a pretty impressive punk.
But you can't completely understand this song.
True... Since art is so foreign to me.
But since she uses that flute to manipulate,
it means that song must contain individually specific sound patterns
to control each and every movement of those guys...
I'm pretty confident when it comes to just analyzing,
but this time it's not looking good.
The reason is...
I don't understand musical notes whatsoever.
Fakeout. Shikamaru's Comeback!
I'll specially show you the Camellia Dance next.
I'll crush you!
You shouldn't say things you can't even do.
Shut up!
What?!
I told you.
This bone is harder than steel.
You should have a taste of it with your own body.
Damn!
There's no one that's heard this song and lived.
Finale, Ninth Passage, Demon Revolution!
The melody's changed!
Something's gonna come!
What the?!
What?
This is...?
The speed at which he flees after determining
that these Material Ghosts are dangerous...
Pretty impressive.
But...
I've used my precious Paper Bombs and Smoke Bombs all at once
and all I could do was hide.
That white one...
bit off my physical energy.
Seeing that shuriken passed through,
that thing is semi materialistic with very little mass.
It's Chakra itself with an appetite.
It's probably Chakra that's shaped mostly by mental energy.
That's why it seeks stability and craves for physical energy.
If I continue dealing with those "Hungry Chakra"
I won't be able to build up my Chakra.
They're pretty dangerous.
She's a Shinobi who can make special Chakra like me...
It's without a doubt, a Secret Ninjutsu.
Which means I should leave the white thing alone
and aim for the main body!
The quickest way would be to stop the sound of the flute, but...
it'd be impossible to get close to that woman in this situation.
The next thing would be to capture those three with Shadow Possession Jutsu.
But that's difficult too since they're attacking me separately at different times.
If I let even one escape I'd be attacked and it'd be the end...
There aren't any openings in either offense or defense this woman...
Heh! She might be a pretty good Shogi player.
My remaining Ninja tools are twelve kunai knives,
nine shuriken, twelve meters of wire, one Flash Bomb and one Paper Bomb...
Man...
I feel like I'm playing without rooks or bishops.
Did I lose them?
I guess that's not possible...
Akamaru?
Here. Eat this, Akamaru.
If you don't eat you won't get your strength back.
All right. Akamaru, let's go!
There's the issue of those guys too...
Dance of the Camellia!
There's no use hiding.
Unless you can predict these guys' movements
there's nowhere you can run, little rat.
I'll find you and break you into pieces right away!
Now then...
All right. Everything's ready. All that remains is to do it.
There'll be nine attacks.
The outcome will be decided during the attacks.
One!
Wishful thinking!
The Jutsu manipulated by this sound is invincible.
Whatever plans you have to win against me...is useless!
Two!
Scampering around, you little rat! Where are you?!
Three!
So you're over there!
Four!
So it's a cheap trick. You think you can make a fool of me?!
Five...six...
seven...eight...
Scurrying around to get away. What is he thinking?
Light?!
Nine!
Oh no!
He's lengthened the shadows with light and...
Shadow Possession Jutsu!
Shadow Possession Jutsu... a success!
That's impossible...
How were you able to predict these guys' movements?!
There's no way you could have heard the differences in my music patterns!
I wasn't listening to the sounds at all.
There's something other than the sounds
that give away your command patterns, isn't there?
Your fingers!
It can't be!
The movement of the three...
Are you saying you memorized my finger movements and predicted?
There's no way that's possible!
Your right index finger and ring finger...
The sound that you make with those
along with the left middle finger and pinkie,
that middle crab pincher man stands ready.
Your right thumb and index finger,
and your left index finger and pinkie, the club man charges.
While you were dodging my attacks and looking for me,
I was observing each and every one of your finger moves in detail...
analyzing and memorizing them.
It's no use...
They're bound by Shadow Possession Jutsu.
The most interesting rule of the Shogi play is that
you can use pieces you obtain as your own pieces.
From here on out... it's my turn to attack...
This time I'll hunt you down using the three pieces.
You're looking pretty composed.
Stand ready with a kunai knife at least.
My weapon is just this flute!
I told you that there hasn't been a person
who's heard the sound of this flute and lived, idiot!
That's some confidence!
Retreat!
Too bad you aren't able to use the pieces, hey!
Next it's my turn!
What?!
Shadow Possession Jutsu, successful.
I told you.
That I'd hunt you down using the pieces.
I used the three pieces as bait.
In attacking, the first hand is the trick, a fake.
The basics are to score with the second hand.
Bastard...
It can't be helped.
Now that it's come to this I'll need to force out with power.
I didn't think that I'd get to second state in a place like this...
It ticks me off but...
I'll acknowledge it.
This guy was a pretty impressive scum.
What is...this?
It's true you're somewhat sharp, but...
It won't go as you've planned from here!
What?!
Is she gonna force herself out of the Shadow Possession Jutsu?
What's with that tremendous Chakra?
The Jutsu's gonna come loose!
I can't be worrying about saving Chakra anymore.
There's no other way but to use that Jutsu!
Ninja Art: Shadow Strangle Jutsu!
Is he grabbing my body with the shadow?
It's just as if I'm being grabbed by a real hand...
But, no more than this!
Damn! What an incredible strength.
At this distance I'll lose to that strength!
Take this!
Demon Flute. Chains of Fantasia!
This is bad!
Is this a...Genjutsu?
Where are you aiming?
I can't move my body...
While in second stage,
I manipulate many Genjutsu with my flute.
Of those, this one is an appropriate for that little rat.
The reason is...
This Genjutsu stops the movement of the prey and ties it up!
How's that? How's it feel to be the one tied up?
So this was your last move huh? Unfortunately, it's a return checkmate!
Little rat!
What...?
This guy...
He broke his own finger with his own shadow!
Did he release the Genjutsu with that pain?
On top of that, he kept pretending to be bound by the Jutsu?!
I told you this already
that the first hand is the trick, a fake.
The basics are to score with the second move.
Moreover this second move... it's a little different from earlier.
With the Shadow Strangle Jutsu,
the closer in distance you are to the subject the stronger the hold.
Damn. I carelessly got too close...
No, that's not it.
The most careless thing was the words you said earlier,
"my weapon is just the flute."
You're looking pretty composed.
Stand ready with a kunai knife at least.
My weapon is just this flute!
I told you that there hasn't been a person
who's heard the sound of this flute and lived, idiot!
No way...
That's right.
The reason I threw the kunai knife right in front of you and missed...
was to lead you to pick it up and come closer to me, you see?
For the first time, I spoke to you
And you smiled
For the first time, I was able to speak
In my own words
Would you think it was a bother if I approached you?
Despite my doubts, I worked up my courage
My clumsy attempts with words
You listened without turning away
No wonder I get carried away by you
But you don't feel anything for me, do you?
I feel so sad
But...
For the first time, I spoke to you
And you smiled
For the first time, I was able to speak
In my own words
For the first time, I spoke to you
And you smiled
For the first time, I was able to speak
In my own words
For the first time, I spoke to you
No way, that's ridiculous!
Am I having a dream or something?!
But it's too intense to be a dream!
That suit with its outstanding ventilation and supple fit.
On top of that, those eyes, that hair, those eyebrows!
You! Why are you here...?!
Next time: "The Leaf's Handsome Devil!"
I sense the approach of a storm!
