However, the Ten-Tails proves to be much too powerful for the pair of Tailed Beasts, forcing them to retreat into their hosts and leaving Naruto, Kakashi and Guy at the mercy of its own Tailed Beast Ball. However, Kurama quickly takes charge of the situation and uses a strategy with Kakashi to deliver Gyuki close enough to the Ten-Tails to launch a Tailed Beast Ball at point blank range. Transcription: " Shinobi Rengōgun no Jutsu!" ( Japanese: 忍連合軍の術!)įollowing the Ten-Tails' arrival, Obito and Madara quickly attach themselves to it and launch an attack against Naruto and the others. Despite the apparent victory, the revived Ten-Tails appears from the fading smoke. Afterwards, as Gyuki attempts to break through the Gedo Statue's barrier, Naruto turns his attention to the Gedo Statue as he and Killer Bee use two Tailed Beast Bombs in hopes to destroy the statue before its regeneration into the Ten-Tails is complete. Convincing Naruto to let him control his body for a bit, Kurama reinvigorates Kakashi with a chakra boost and tricked Obito into warping the copy ninja into the other dimension so he can lose his advantage through Kamui. Hearing Naruto's words as an allusion to Obito's childhood ideals, Kakashi gains the resolve to protect his student. Luckily, while stopping Madara's Susanoo from killing him, Killer Bee, and Guy, Naruto uses a shadow clone to save Kakashi. Meanwhile, Kakashi Hatake tries to understand Obito's reasons but is severely drained from overusing his Sharingan as he gets endlessly pummeled. In one scene, Obito Uchiha's Sharingan is mistakenly depicted with two tomoe instead of three.Transcription: " Kakashi no Ketsui" ( Japanese: カカシの決意)Īfter repelling Naruto Uzumaki's Super Mini-Tailed Beast Ball while chiding Obito for deviating from the plan, including the method of his resurrection, Madara decides to take matters into his own hands to capture the remaining tailed beasts by using the First Hokage's Wood Dragon to bind Kurama and Gyuki.Hanzō is shocked to hear that the Akatsuki, a group that shares the same ideal as him, is responsible for this. Danzō arrives at Hanzō's residence, with the corpses of the fallen shinobi, whom he recognised as members of Hanzō's clan. Yahiko departs and the remainder of the Akatsuki follows, expressing their trust in him. Danzō arrives to the location, to witness the defeated corpses of the "Iwa shinobi". The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is unwillingly summoned by Nagato but Yahiko and Konan stop him. Nagato is enraged, having witness Yahiko and Konan being beaten. This effort is in vain as the Konoha Anbu disguised as Iwa-shinobi refuse to negotiate and assault the three. There, they meet with a group of people, who want to attack Iwagakure but the Akatsuki insists solving the issue through peace talks instead. Meanwhile, Yahiko, Konan and Nagato head to a small village that was earlier attacked. At Hanzō's residence, he is informed of the Akatsuki by one of his men and expresses his approval for an organisation which shares the same ideal as him. Yahiko is determined that the Akatsuki can surpass Hanzō one day. Elsewhere at Amegakure, Kyūsuke brings letters of requests to Yahiko, which the Akatsuki will fulfil. Jiraiya is satisfied to learn that the orphans are now growing up and reminisces of his time with them. Kakashi comes looking for Jiraiya and tells him that the Ame Orphans are attempting to bring about change in Amegakure, through dialogue instead of military might.
