There you go.
ん？ こんな朝早く どっからだ？
Where'd this one come from so early in the morning?
な！ こいつは砂隠れ最速の タカ丸マルじゃないか
Th-This is Takamaru, the fastest messenger in all the Hidden Sand!
（木ノ葉の里の忍）あ…

これは…
What's this...?!
第１級の緊急通信文
It's a level-one emergency message!
すぐに暗号班に連絡を
Contact the Cipher Corps immediately!
（うずまきナルト） 任務に就くのも久しぶりだな
It's sure been a long time since I've been on a mission...
ワクワクするってばよ
I'm so excited!
（春野はるのサクラ）ナルト
Naruto, accept the mission without complaint,
どんな任務を言い渡されても 文句を言わずに ちゃんと受けるのよ
no matter what we're ordered to do.
（ナルト）ああ 分かってるってばよ
I know!
（はたけカカシ）だと いいけど
I hope so...
（くノ一）どいた どいた！ （ナルト･サクラ）うわあ
Move it, move it!
（サクラ）何？
What was that?
Watch it, you! Be more careful!
危ねえじゃねえか 気をつけろってばよ
（カカシ）暗号班が呼び出されたか
So the Cipher Corps was summoned, huh...?
すると さっきの鳥が 運んできたのは…
Then what the bird from earlier brought must've been...
You said there's a level-one emergency message?
（くノ一） 第１級の緊急通信文だと？
Are you sure?
間違いないのか
（木ノ葉の里の忍）はい ここに
Yes. It's right here...
（くノ一）砂からか…
It's from the Sand, huh...?
解！
Break!
（木ノ葉の里の忍） そいつが きたってことは
That message coming here means...
（木ノ葉の里の忍） 砂に 何かあったに違いない
No doubt something's happened in the Sand!
（くノ一）分かった すぐに解読する
Okay!
I'll get right to deciphering it!

I remember now.
この人柱力じんちゅうりきには 何人かの兄弟がいたな
This Jinchuriki guy had some siblings.

たぶん こいつがそうだな うん
This is probably that guy...
名前は確か カンタロウ いや カンパチだったか？
I think his name was Kantaro... I mean, Kanpachi, or something...?
（カンクロウ）カンクロウだ
It's Kankuro!
くっ…

（ナルト）なあ 何が あったんだってばよ？
The Kazekage of the Hidden Sand has been taken
砂隠れの風影が 暁あかつきという 組織の者に連れ去られた
by members of the organization called the Akatsuki.
（カカシ）ああ （サクラ）あっ
あ… 我愛羅があらが
Gaara...
Those guys again, huh...?
また あいつらか
We have more information concerning the Akatsuki.
（綱手） 暁に関しては我々のほうが 多くの情報を持っている
And so the Hidden Sand has officially requested our help...
そこで砂隠れから 正式に応援を要請してきた
（シズネ）ああ！ 綱手様 まさか カカシ班を…
Tsunade-sama, don't tell me you're going to have Team Kakashi...?!
This is a time of emergency.
緊急時だ のんびり 人選している暇はない
I can't be wasting time on personnel selection.
それに 実際に暁と戦った者もいる
And besides, we've got someone here
who's actually fought against the Akatsuki...
（シズネ）それは そうですが…
I understand that, but...
I will now issue Team Kakashi a new mission.
（綱手）これよりカカシ班に 改めて任務を言い渡す
Go to the Village Hidden in the Sand immediately,
直ちに砂隠れの里へ行き 状況を把握し木ノ葉へ伝達
find out what's going on and report back to the Leaf...
After that, you will follow the orders of the Hidden Sand
その後 砂隠れの命に従い 彼らをバックアップしろ
and provide them with back-up!
（カンクロウ）うう… なぜだ？
How...?
How...?!
なぜなんだ？
How can he read my movements like this...?
なぜ こうまで こちらの 動きが読まれるんだ
しかも ヤツは さっきから ほとんど動いてねえ
And on top of that, he's hardly moved at all the whole time...
What's the matter? Are you already finished...?
（サソリ） どうした もう終わりか？
（カンクロウ）くっ…
Like hell I am!
んなわけねえじゃん！
Poisoned Mist Inferno...
毒霧地獄 バリバリ100連発！
Consecutive Needle Combo!
（カンクロウ）ウッ… （サソリ）終わりか？
Are you finished?
No way... How is he not affected by being in the Poisoned Mist?!
（カンクロウ） バカな！ 毒霧の中に いたってのに平気なのかよ
Making people wait any longer than this goes against my policy...
（サソリ） これ以上 人を待たせるのは 俺のポリシーに反するんでな
そろそろ こちらから いかせてもらうぜ
I think it's just about my turn now!
Salamander has an iron wall defense...
山椒魚さんしょううおは鉄壁の防御
数万トンの岩の直撃にも 耐えることができる
It can withstand a direct hit from a few thousand tons of rocks...
フフフッ
You won't be able to inflict even a scratch on me.
お前は俺に 傷１つ つけることもできねえ
It's safe to say the defensive strength of that puppet
（サソリ） 確かに その傀儡くぐつの防御能力は
最高レベルと言っていいだろう
is indeed of the highest level.
However...
だが 弱点が ないわけじゃない
There's always a weakness.
It's futile!
（カンクロウ）ムダだ！
あ！
N-No way...
バ… バカな
He figured out Salamander's weakness in one glance...?
山椒魚さんしょううおの弱点を ひと目で見破っただと？
う… うわ！
うう…
No matter how strong the puppet may be,
（サソリ）例え どんな頑丈な傀儡くぐつでも
the movable parts of the joints are weaker than the other parts.
稼働部分である関節は ほかより強度が劣るものだ
Now then, shall we go for the finale?
さて フィナーレといくか
（湯飲みにヒビが入った音） （テマリ）ん…
I usually don't believe in stuff like this, but...
（テマリ）こういうのは あまり信じないんだが
I've kind of got a bad feeling about this...
なんだか胸騒ぎがする
（カンクロウ）てやあ！
How...?
（カンクロウ） なぜだ？ なぜ こうまで 仕込みの手順を読まれるんだ
How can he read my hidden weapon attack schemes...?
（サソリ）筋はいい だが 相手が悪かったな
You've got solid talent...
However, you picked the wrong opponent.
Your puppets with the hidden poison weapons...
お前の傀儡くぐつ 毒仕込みのカラクリは
全て お見通しだ
I can see through them all...
（カンクロウ） ああ 烏からす 黒蟻くろあり 山椒魚さんしょううお！
Crow! Black Ant! Salamander!
This is the first time
（カンクロウ）ここまで仕込みを 読まれたのは初めてだ
my hidden weapon attacks have been read like this...
（サソリ）フフッ 不思議そうな顔してる
You look puzzled...
You're wondering how I figured out your attacks, huh?
なぜ仕込みがバレた？ そりゃあ そうだ
Of course I did.
Crow...
烏からす 黒蟻くろあり 山椒魚さんしょううお
Black Ant...
Salamander...
The one who created these three puppets is none other... than me!
この３体の傀儡くぐつ人形を 作ったのは ほかでもない
この俺だ！
（カンクロウ）な！
（カエル）ゲロゲロ ゲロゲロ
（カエル）ゲーロゲロ ゲーロゲロ
（カエル）ゲロゲロ
（自来也じらいや）うわ！
（自来也）ええ… ろ…？
（カエル）ゲコ
その巻物は…
That scroll...?!
You idiot! Hurry up and show it to me!
バカもん！ 早く見せろ
（カエル）ゲコ
（自来也）ん～ 何々？ 砂隠れの里の風影が…
What...?
The Kazekage of the Hidden Sand has been...
Looks like this isn't the time to be sleeping like this!
こりゃ のんびり寝ている 場合じゃないのう
（サソリ）少々 人を待たせる ことになってしまったが
I ended up making someone wait a bit...
But I never thought my opponent would be
お下がりを持っている カワイイ後輩が相手とは
one of my adorable juniors using hand-me-downs.
久々に楽しい戦いだったぞ
I haven't had such a fun fight in quite some time.
Then, you're... the celebrated master craftsman of the puppet unit,
じゃあ てめえが傀儡くぐつ部隊の 天才造形師とうたわれた
Sasori of the Red Sand?!
赤砂のサソリだってのか？
I'm honored that a kid like you knows my name.
（サソリ）お前のようなガキにまで 名を知られているとは 光栄だな
You left the Sand over twenty years ago.
20年以上も前に 砂を抜けたお前が なぜ…
What're you doing here?!
（サソリ）死ぬ前に そんなに聞いてどうする？
What's the point of asking such a thing before you die?
あ… うあ
くっ… あ… 体が しびれてきやがった
My body's getting numb... Don't tell me he also uses poison...
まさか こいつも毒を…
But when?
だが いつ？
I know! At that moment!
そうか あのとき！
The poison's circulating, huh...? You're finished!
（サソリ） 毒が回ってきたな とどめだ
ん？
ふん
苦しむだけだというのに そうまでして生きていたいなら
You're just going to suffer. But if you want to live that badly...
I won't finish you off!
とどめは やめだ
However, that poison will kill you in less than three days.
ただ その毒だ ３日ともたずに お前は死ぬ
Gaara...
（カンクロウ）我愛羅…
ちっきしょう
Damn it...!
There he is! He's over there!
（砂の里の忍）いたぞ あそこだ 倒れてる
He's collapsed! And his puppets are smashed...
（砂の里の忍）傀儡くぐつもバラバラだぞ
Okay, we're off now!
（ナルト）んじゃ 行ってくるってばよ
We'll be back, Master.
では綱手師匠 行って参ります
Right...
（綱手）ああ
（イルカ）ん…
Naruto, good luck!
ナルト 頑張れよ
Thanks.
おう
Hey!
おお これから任務か ナルト？
Are you off on a mission now, Naruto?
That's right!
（ナルト）押忍
Oh, more importantly.
（自来也）おっと それより
綱手 情報だ
Tsunade, I've got some information for you.
砂隠れの風影が…
- The Kazekage of the Hidden Sand... - I know.
（綱手）知ってる 今から こいつらを砂に送るところだ
I'm just about to send them off to the Sand now.
Right, right.
うん うん
You know about the Akatsuki and Naruto, don't you...?
（自来也）暁とナルトのことは お前も知っとるだろうのォ
緊急事態だからな 最善の選択をしたまでだ
It's an emergency situation you see...
I just made the best choice I could.
Oh, come on...
まったく お前は…
Naruto, come here for a second.
ナルト ちょっと こっちこい
Hm?
（ナルト）ん？
いいか ナルト 暁 相手に決して無理はするな
Listen up, Naruto. Don't get reckless against the Akatsuki.
They've got business with me.
あいつら俺に用があるんだから
So this time I'll go to them!
今度こそ こっちから 出向いてやらあ
You have indeed gotten stronger...
確かにお前は強くなったがのォ
But if you don't keep cool, you'll just be asking for trouble.
冷静を欠けば 必ず 墓穴を掘ることになるぞ
すぐに熱くなるのは お前の悪い癖だのォ
Losing your cool right away is a bad habit of yours.
Naruto... I think you know...
ナルト 分かってるとは思うが あの力は使うなよ
But don't use that power.
I know...
（ナルト）分かってるってばよ
Kakashi...
カカシ ナルトがあまり ムチャしないよう見張ってくれ
Keep an eye on Naruto and make sure he doesn't do anything too reckless.
I'm counting on you. Okay?
頼んだぞ のォ
Okay.

Kakashi-sensei, Sakura-chan, let's get a move on!

H-Hey, wait up!

心配か？
No, I'm not...
いえ あいつは もう 私の心配するような
He's no longer a weak Shinobi I need to worry about...
弱い忍びでは ありませんから
And the same goes for Sakura.
それにサクラも…
Growth is sure a mysterious thing.

Intelligence Research Report by the Anbu Black Ops.
The Leaf and Sand Alliance.
（綱手）中忍(ちゅうにん)試験のさなか 始まった木ノ葉崩し
The attempt to crush the Leaf began suddenly during the Chunin Exams.
The Sand Shinobi betrayed the Leaf by conspiring with Orochimaru in an attack against them.
木ノ葉を裏切り 大蛇丸おろちまるに加担した砂の襲撃を受け
And the Leaf was hit extremely hard by such events as the death of the Third Hokage.
３代目 火影ほかげが絶命
木ノ葉の受けた被害は甚大であった
後に風影は大蛇丸に 暗殺されていたことが判明
However, it became known that the Kazekage had already been assassinated by Orochimaru.
砂隠れの里は 事件の発端が 大蛇丸によるものと公表し
As soon as the Village Hidden in the Sand learned of this,
they made public that Orochimaru was the culprit behind the incident
and announced a full surrender.
全面的な降伏を宣言
As the recovery of national power was urgently needed,
国力の復旧を急務としていた 木ノ葉は砂との同名を締結した
the Leaf accepted their surrender and the Leaf and the Sand formed an alliance.
Presently, the Sand is incorporating the Leaf's training program
現在では新人育成に
木ノ葉の演習プログラムを 取り入れるなど 交流も深い
in their development of recruits
and interaction between Leaf and Sand Shinobi is on the rise.
ちなみに シカマルと テマリの交際疑惑だが
Incidentally, as for the alleged relationship between Shikamaru and Temari,
Shikamaru himself commented by saying
シカマル当人が中忍ちゅうにん試験の 打ち合わせとコメント
that they were just having a meeting about the Chunin Exams.
It seems Naruto jumped to the wrong conclusion.
ナルトの早とちりだった模様
From here on, it is likely that the Leaf and the Sand will continue to forge an amicable alliance.
以上 今後も木ノ葉と砂は
良好な同盟関係を 築いていくと思われる
