Rock away your existence,
Shouting that you are here...
A new journey begins now.
As we survived through the changing seasons,
we gained knowledge and strength, (just looks like a survival game)
But the forgotten memories,
of the feelings abandoned within the flows of time,
have also been lost.
When sinking down, we learned loneliness.
But now we've met each other, we are no longer alone.
Unveil your feelings, Those high emotions
Those tears will change your fate.
Pound your heartbeat against the darkness,
We're sure to meet, Under the same flag of pain
I'll give it to you straight...
Your next mission was commissioned by a certain Feudal Lord's daughter.
You are to act as her double.
I don't know where she heard about you,
but you apparently bear a striking resemblance to the princess.
Therefore she requested that you be the one who carries it out...
A double...?
Is someone targeting the princess?
Well, if anything, she's the one who's doing the targeting...
Huh?
Not to worry.
You're already an admirable Hidden Leaf Shinobi.
Furthermore, I've arranged for you to have an assistant.
Assistant?
Grandma Tsunade! You have a mission for me?
And one from a Feudal Lord to boot!
Huh?! Lady Tsunade!
Sorry, but all the other guys are too busy.
Just me and this guy?
Yup. Do your best to carry out the mission.
The client is a Feudal Lord's daughter, huh...
Wow... I guess that means that I've finally became good enough
to handle amazing missions like this, huh?!
Hey, don't get too excited.
Terrible things happen when you're like that.
I know... Just leave things in my capable hands!
You're really a piece of work...
Ino Screams! Chubby Paradise!
Thank you for coming from afar.
That's the client?
She and Ino really do look alike, but...
I It's a bit of a stretch...
It's all right. I have an idea of what you wish to say.
My physique doesn't really resemble that of the double there...
That's what you're thinking, right?
- Oh... not at all... Umm... - To be honest,
- I don't think you resemble her at all. - Hey!
Well, I don't blame you for thinking that. But here, have a look at this!
T That's... Ino!
That's what I looked like a short time ago...
Truth be told, I only got like this
after it was decided that I was to have an arranged courtship.
An arranged courtship?!
The other party is Master Chikara from the neighboring Land of Udon.
Ever since I saw his picture,
my feelings for him have deepened day by day.
And as the day of the arranged courtship grows closer,
I have become increasingly nervous, my cheeks have been flushed,
and my heart has been pounding.
I can't even sleep at night.
And because of that stress, I've started overeating...
It goes without saying that you'll get fat if you pig out.
Of course, I've taken appropriate countermeasures!
I've been using something that cuts all the fats and carbohydrates that I ingest...
"Easy -Peasy Slim Special
It didn't work, did it?
I placed too strong hopes in it...
How can I possibly have an arranged courtship
with the man I'm infatuated with when I look like this?
So that's my situation... Now, let's get to the main issue.
I want you to attend the arranged courtship in my place
and make it a success at any cost.
Huh?! So this double thing
is just to act on you behalf at some arranged courtship?!
What do you mean by "some arranged courtship"?!
I mean, when you talk about doubles, you thinks of situations
where someone's life is in danger and that sort of thing.
What are you talking about?!
The princess's entire life is at stake! This is major!
Oh! So you understand a heart in love...
I sure do... A girl always wants to look cute
for the guy she loves.
Even if she's a fake?
It can't be helped. I mean, guys prefer slender girls.
That's exactly right!
I'm counting on you.
Sure thing! Leave it to me!
But even if the arranged courtship goes well...
The gap is just too big.
I'll just have to lose weight by the day of the wedding.
I already have a plan in place for that.
This supplemental type diet food, "Supplement Slender"!
If I supplement all three meals with this...
Why don't you draw on the lessons you're supposed to have learned...?
In any case, I'll use my charms to make this arranged courtship a success!
This annex is where I often played in my childhood.
I plan to use this to listen in on the arranged courtship from here.
Huh... That's pretty convenient.
I would love to meet him in person if I could, but...
Hey, is he that cool looking?
Of course he is!
He's someone with something really special about him!
Well then, just make sure he falls for you.
Leave it to me!
I thought you weren't motivated...
Well, this is a mission after all.
So I think I'll pull myself together and hustle!
Don't do anything unnecessary, okay!
W What's up?
The sound is getting closer!
- What? - It's so bright!
There are many a handsome man in this world,
but this man is renowned even among them!
This man makes Land of Udon what it is...
that sexy man with glistening sidelong glances!
The oh so great young prince Chikara...
Kneel down and bow before him!
Sorry.
It appears that I have kept you waiting, princess
You're... Master Chikara?
He's even more intense than Intense Brow Sensei.
I'm sorry, pretty girl.
I have constitutional low blood pressure.
Dunno. He looks more like he has high blood pressure to me...
What?
D Do you always scatter flower petals?
Flowers are wonderful.
They truly allay the fatigue of your mind and your body.
Don't you find them relaxing?
I I guess...
Okay then, next...
Hey, don't you think he's different from her description...?
I mean, he's fa...
Fa?!
Stop!
These sweets are really fabulous, aren't they?
Do excuse us a little.
What the heck are you doing, out of the blue like that?!
It's women's intuition.
I got the same vibe from him as Choji.
That word is probably taboo.
Oh, I see!
Gimme a break!
What's up with that uselessly intense chubby guy showing up
when she told us he'd be a handsome prince?!
But wouldn't his physique be a perfect match for her?
I'm sure there must be some mistake.
There's no way a girl would fall in love with a guy like that.
But maybe that's the princess' taste in men...
That's impossible. I mean...
He's flashy!
Intense...!
And a fatso!
He's a freak! A freak!
There's gotta be a mistake! I'm sure of it!
Y You think so?
What are you saying?
There's no mistake that that's Master Chikara, the man of my heart.
I thought so...
What an elegant man...
I deeply regret that I cannot see him up close with my very own eyes.
I guess one could say that everybody has their own set of woes.
Listen, make sure that he takes a liking to me no matter what!
Stop complaining and get the ball rolling with dogged persistence!
I will convey that to her.
Has you tension not eased? Music is good for relaxation.
Please, you need not go to the trouble...
- What did she say? - She said there's no mistake.
She wants you to bulldoze on ahead!
I can't believe it!
It's our mission, you know!
I know that...
Princess Fuku... do you like roses?
Yes... very much so...
Great! I love roses too!
In the language of flowers, they signify love!
But don't their meanings differ depending on their color?
For example, yellow roses are supposed to mean " Let's break up...
It's nonsense to discriminate because of color...
I mean the flowers are not at fault, after all.
For you.
Hey... wait!
Huh?
I can't do it! I can't do it!
There's no way! He's too intense.
There's no way I can act as a substitute for the princess!
Calm down. Stop saying that and do your best.
Nope. I just can't stand him physically.
Oh, I got it.
If you just think of him
- as a somewhat intense Choji... - Choji has fat on him
for the sake of his Ninjutsu...
I don't have the slightest idea what purpose that prince's fat serves.
That's a pretty severe opinion, you know...
I'm going off somewhere for a moment.
Huh? Hey, where are you going?!
Gimme a break, that girl's a handful...
Well, this is for the sake of a mission after all.
I guess it's about time for Naruto to lend a helping hand!
What is it?!
I'm not judging you, but I think you should pass on that young prince.
There's something wrong with his head. I'm positive!
What are you saying? He's a passionate and wonderful man!
But...
I hired the Leaf to provide me with substitute for
the arranged courtship and bring it to success.
You're a professional Shinobi, right?
So I suggest you get on it and get the job done!
The atmosphere in there hasn't been very congenial at all!
You need to be aggressive in making yourself appealing to him!
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Chikara!
That's right! Just like that... huh?
That jerk...!
H Hey!
P-P-Princess?
Master Chikara... Could you loosen my sash for me, please?
But... but...
Please.
Oh my gosh!
There's a creepy crawler up here under the roof that looks like a sow bug!
Mind Destruction Jutsu!
A creepy -crawler that looks like a sow bug?
An insect?
Oh... she vanished...
What the heck are you thinking?!
Where is the princess?
I don't know.
She vanished...
What is going on anyway?
This is starting to irritate me... I can't get what's happening from here.
Why are you meddling! I was just one step away!
What do you think you're doing, dressed up like Princess Fuku?!
I'm telling you!
In one of Pervy Sage's books happened to glance at,
this is the kind of thing that worked.
I don't believe that anyone would use such a garish advance!
That's dirty!
There's absolutely no way a type of guy like you
would ever be mistaken for the protagonist of a boy's comic!
Huh! I was doing a way better job than you were!
Gimme a break...
Now that things have come to this,
I need to take care of business before another meddler gets in the way!
Huh... You gotta be kidding...
It looks like my help is needed if this mission is going to be a success.
Princess... where in the world have you been?
Please forgive me. I was so nervous I just flew into a panic earlier on...
You really seemed like a totally different person.
I'm so sorry.
You were such a wonderful person, that it became almost unbearable...
Non. That is bad.
We must change the air in here then.
Oh, in that case, I will...
Hi... Chikara!
Huh?
That just now, outside the sliding paper door...
What's the matter?
There was one more... princess!
That can't be... Impossible.
INNERINO Naruto...!
But I'm very moved that you have such deep feelings for me
that you actually saw a vision...
Vision? No, I definitely saw...
You mustn't look!
P-Princess?
Damn...I did that without thinking...
Oh goodness me...
In my ardent desire for you to look just at me, I...
What intense passion...
All right... As you wish, princess.
- Huh? - Allow me to catch
those hot feelings in fine style!
Could this be...?
Come, don't hold back.
Huh?!
You may not kiss him! No kisses!
Oh!
Goodness, you cannot be too careful these days!
Who told you that you could go as far as kissing him?!
Oh, it's not that I wanted to...
I'd have to say that you actually came to my rescue.
Don't bandy words with me!
Listen carefully, holding hands is as much as I can concede to you...!
You're too loud!
The princess vanished again.
- Princess! - Princess!
This isn't good! I better hurry back.
Don't try anything funny in there!
I know that! In any case, we can't let him see the two of us together!
Hurry back to your room, Princess!
All right.
Gimme a break that Ino...
Dumping me in the lake like that. Thanks to her I'm freezing!
This is bad! I gotta pee... Gotta go!
I don't know where the toilet is around here.
There's nobody around... Well, it is an emergency situation after all.
Huh?!
W W What the heck do you think you're doing over there looking like me?!
No... this is... um...
How shameless! Stop that immediately!
I can't stop it...
Do you not understand that I'm telling you to stop!
It's impossible to stop so sudden!
Hey!
Wait up!
I wasn't quite emotionally prepared earlier on...
However, the feelings I have for you in my heart are true.
Princess...
Master Chikara...
I have harbored a secret love for you for a long time.
Please, take me...
Huh?
- I wonder what that sound is? - I have no idea...
Rain?
What a beautiful rainbow...
Stop, I say!
I told you, it's impossible!
Ouch!
Princess?!
Naruto!
You idiot!
Forgive me for this one, please!
I won't forgive you!
Look what you've done!
Ouch... Stop!
What in the world is going on?!
Oh no!... Umm... this is, well...
All right, that's enough... We can't fake it any longer.
I apologize for having hoodwinked you. I am... the bona fide Fuku.
You mean to say that the princess up to now was an imposter?
That is correct.
What is the meaning of all this?
I wouldn't have imagined that things would come to such a finale!
No, that's not correct, Master Chikara!
Out of my way!
The super body I fantasized about in my dreams! My ideal personified!
Bravo!
- Huh? - Huh?
My cute princess. Please marry me!
I'm delighted, Master Chikara!
Hail the future wife!
What is this anyway...?
Somehow it seems like our mission turned out to be success in the end...
I think?
Could it be? I put all my efforts in making advances on a guy
who's not my type in the least and got rejected.
Moreover, it was a totally wasted effort...
Is that what happened?
But, everything turned out well. So isn't it okay?
And both of them look so happy together...
That's not the problem! A damsel's heart has been wounded...
I can't believe that, of all things, I was brushed off by a guy like that...
He didn't even glance in your direction at the end there.
Stop it! Don't remind me.
You can never knows what a person likes, can you?
Nope... there's no way I'll acknowledgerthat!
A man's got to like a slender girl better!
In order to become even more of a woman,
I'm going on a diet! On a diet!
Wait... wait up!
On a checkerboard night
when the stardust's are rapidly dancing
I just can't come out and say, "Ah, I don't want to go home yet."
Suggestively
Spat at that beloved face!! Mister Cricket
The Trombone gradually going off key
While on the sweaty center stage does bug me.
But more importantly, the fuzziness I feel in my undeveloped chest,
I wonder if it's from that coke I just drank?
Naruto, let's make some bittersweet memories of youth together!
- Huh? - No need to be shy.
I am ready both in mind and body!
What are you blabbing about all of a sudden?!
It was long...
To think how much I've waited for this moment!
I have no idea what you're talking about!
Here I come Naruto! Please become my first.
Just a minute.
Next Time: "Viva Dojo Challenge! Youth is all about Passion!"
