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
Not yet? Idate hasn’t come, yet?
My lord, we finally found evidence
regarding the matter we were investigating.
Oh, I see.
Mm, good work.
My lord, is there something amiss?
No, it’s nothing.
Concentrate on my Chakra.
We’re saved.
Sasuke, are you okay?
Naruto, I’m counting on you.
Protect Idate.
The Last Leg: A Final Act of Desperation
Poison needles won’t work on me.
How dare you do that to Sasuke and Sakura?!
Rest easy.
I’ll send you to the place where they are real soon.
I won’t go so easily!
Naruto.
But what do I do?
The Rasengan won’t work on his sword.
It doesn’t matter.
Those two are waiting for my help!
Saving each other again, huh?!
They wouldn’t survive falling off this cliff.
Shut up!
Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu.
Oh…you’re going to run away from here using such a diversion?
Don’t mess with me! Who’s going to run away?
Naruto, it’s futile. That technique won’t work on that sword!
It’s futile!
Naruto!
Just like the Uchiha loser earlier,
why is it that each and every Leaf Village Ninja is an idiot?
Shut up!
I’m going to save those two!
Are you seriously thinking they’re alive after falling off this cliff?
You should’ve gotten out of here.
As if…
I'd abandon my comrades and run away!
That’s my answer to the tenth problem!
What’re you saying?
One more time.
Eat this.
Idiot.
Rasengan!
Naruto…!
You still don’t get it?! You don’t have a chance of winning!
Damn!
That's…
the damage Sasuke inflicted.
That's it!
If I aim for that…
I can win!
You saying you still want to fight? Give it up, already!
Shut up! Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Sasuke…
Sasuke gave me a chance! I won't waste it!
Naruto…
Stay still!
Sasuke! They’re using the Water Clone Jutsu!
I know!
Trust us, Idate! We’ll protect you, no matter what!
S-Sakura…
Go on ahead. We’ll be right behind you.
Sakura!
I…
I hate people who don’t know when to quit.
This is the end.
A foolish cheap trick.
What?!
I’m saying I can’t stand this saving each other business.
Idate!
Your opponent is over here!
Above!
Rasengan!
What?!
It can’t be!
Naruto, you did it!
Naruto…
You’re really something.
Yeah, well…
Sakura!
Naruto…! Idate…!
Sakura!
She’s okay?
Sasuke’s okay, too.
I’m coming to save you now, believe it.
Idiot. Forget about us and get going to the finish line, quick!
Oh, that’s right.
But what should we do about this?
Leave it to me.
We’ll cut the rope and go to the opposite bank in one swing!
I get it!
I thought the worst of myself.
But Boss Jirocho trusted in me.
I trust you more than anyone.
It was the first time I was trusted by someone.
So I wanted to win this race for the boss, no matter what.
But in reality, I can’t win just with such feelings.
So many times along the way, I felt like giving up.
Watch out!
But each time,
you guys risked your lives to save a lame duck like me!
Naruto, I’m sorry.
I should’ve trusted you guys from the start.
What’re you saying?
Say stuff like that after winning the race.
You’re right.
Naruto!
Idate!
Okay, do it!
Right!
Boo! Boo! Boo!
Now that's a rousing welcome.
Naruto, at this rate, we’ll crash into the rocks!
I know. Leave it to me!
Release Chakra from the bottom of my feet.
It’s the very last Chakra!
Then stick to the rocks with Chakra!
All right, Naruto!
Now dash to the finish line!
Sakura, I’ll come back to help you right away!
Okay. Let’s go, Idate.
Right!
Run steady, Fukusuke!
Stay sharp until the end.
Shut up! I know.
Geez…spoiling my good mood.
I can see the Todoroki Great Shrine.
Boss!
Blast it!
Good, good.
Idate.
– Hey! – Oh!
Hey! What’s that?
Here he comes!
Idate of the Wasabi Family’s here!
Go!
You can still catch up!
What?!
Idate!
Idiot!
What’re you doing, Fukusuke?! Run!
Damn it!
I won’t lose.
I will not lose!
I won’t give up until the very end!
Like heck. I won’t be passed up after I've come this far!
– All right! – He caught up.
Blast this guy…!
I won’t lose, you little…!
Blast…
Idate…!
Come on, Idate!
Boss!
Go! Idate…!
All right!
I did it!
Idate.
You ran a fine race.
Boss!
You did well.
Boss, I’m sorry. I’m truly sorry.
You fool. What’re you apologizing for?
You won.
No, please let me speak.
I really want to apologize now. I’m truly sorry!
You're making no sense to me. What a totally weird guy.
Well done, Idate.
I was wrong about you.
Okay, Idate. Go receive the winner’s blessing.
Yes!
Hey, Idate!
Hey, you idiot!
Bringing shame upon the boss! You’re prepared, aren’t you?
I-I’m sorry!
The winner!
Idate Morino of the Wasabi Family!
He finally did it.
Hey, hey… Just a minute.
Kyuroku.
Along the way, he rode on the back of a hired Ninja.
This is a violation.
W-What?
There’s proof.
Look at this photo.
Racing until the end on your own strength is the rule of this race.
Therefore, Idate is disqualified.
The winner is Fukusuke Hikyakuya of the Wagarashi Family.
No way.
H-Hold it. That was…!
I’ll hear no excuses! Jirocho, it’s a promise.
I order the Wasabi Family dissolved immediately.
Just a minute.
There is no such rule anywhere. Do not speak nonsense!
M-My lord!
Or perhaps…
you have a reason for wanting the Wagarashi to win at all cost?
No, nothing like that.
Could it be because you would not be able to do things like this?
Look.
You fool! Retire and enter the monastery!
Yes, yes, my lord!
Kyuroku Wagarashi.
Y-Yes?
Word of your evil deeds has reached my ears as well.
Your sins against the people of Degarashi Port are severe.
Therefore, the Wagarashi Family is to be dissolved as of today.
Understood?
Y-Yes, sire.
Today is an auspicious day.
With this, the matter is settled.
Thanks for the help, Naruto.
Idate, this is good-bye, huh?
I’ve come to get the wounded.
Ibiki.
B-Big Brother!
Where are the wounded?
Over here.
Okay, get him on the boat, quickly.
R-Right.
Um, excuse me.
What is it?
N-Nothing.
Brother!
Wait, Big Brother!
Who are you?
The man who called me Big Brother died three years ago.
Big Brother… I figured out the answer to the tenth problem!
I’ll never betray a comrade again!
I can trust others now!
He's looking good now.
'Bye, Idate. Let’s meet again.
Good-bye. See you around.
Yeah. You guys come again, too, okay?
I wish you good health, Boss!
Yeah…
See ya!
Take care!
An interesting guy as always.
No wonder the Fifth Hokage sees potential in him.
Naruto! Thanks!
Idate! Next time, it’ll be a battle with me, believe it.
Sasuke, does it hurt?
No.
Thank goodness.
Those wounds will heal immediately once we get back to the village.
Right.
The rumors were true.
The survivor of the village’s honorable Uchiha Clan…
is just a good-for-nothing kid…
I couldn’t beat him!
And yet, he…
that Naruto...!
Once in a long while, once in a while
The remnants of a person broken by dreams
Look like a mountain
Clinging to the Divine, clinging to Buddha
The remnants of a person crying
Look like a mountain
Rendezvous with a happy dance circle
This is my victory pose, round and around (round around)
Shake shake shake Let’s look
With a bye-bye rhythm that never ends
Look like a mountain
Hey Sasuke and Naruto, what's happened to both of you?
This is a hospital, and Sasuke's still recuperating!
Even you should know better, Naruto.
Stop the antics already!
Why, why's this happening?!
