Hit the gas!
There's no need to finagle, oh yeah!
We'll go all through the night.
I'll complain at the end,
the balance is zero, oh yeah!
We'll whittle the days away...
When you open your heart a little,
and pull someone close to you,
Your feelings will surely reach them deeper, yeah...
Hurry it up! Wring it out!
Though my legs are all tangled, they will surely take me far...
Even if I steal it and manage to grasp it,
If it isn't you, then what's the point?
So I'll go far into the distance...
Now for the next match.
It looks like I can have nice battles with the rookies this year.
Uzumaki Naruto
Inuzuka Kiba
My turn! My turn! My turn!
Thank you for waiting! It's finally my turn!
Hell yeah! We got lucky!
We can win against him for sure, Akamaru.
Show me how much you've grown.
I'll do this!
Akamaru Joins the Fight!!
Which One Will be the Underdog?
Akamaru joins the fight!!
Which one will be the underdog?
Seventh match, Uzumaki Naruto versus Inuzuka Kiba.
I'm tired from all that waiting!
It's finally my turn to show off my moves!
That's my line! Drawing you as my opponent means I've already won!
Right, Akamaru?
Keep dreaming! You can't win against me!
Why you...!
Hey! Don't bring puppies in here!
He's going to interfere with the battle.
Idiot, Akamaru's going to fight, too.
Hey, hey! Is that okay?
Yes, animals and bugs are treated as weapons.
It isn't a problem.
Oh, well! It's a good handicap.
Acting tough, eh?
Then...
Akamaru, don't do anything. I'll do this alone.
Naruto! Don't lose to that guy!
It's finally his turn.
Naruto, eh?
Sorry to say this, but he can't defeat Kiba...
Kakashi.
Naruto-kun, I want to cheer you on, but I'm on Kiba-kun's team, so...
Kiba-kun might get mad, but...
Naruto-kun...
Kiba is... lucky.
I don't know how much stronger he got after becoming a Genin...
(Henge no Jutsu: Transformation Technique)
We're going to review the Henge no Jutsu today.
You will transform yourself into Hokage-sama.
His original abilities were...
Henge!
So noisy... I was having a nice nap.
That was a joke. I did it on purpose.
Quit fooling around, Naruto!
This is your third year in the academy!
Geez, who is that?
We just changed classes, and we've found a funny guy already.
He did a good job getting everyone's attention.
Trying to be funny, eh?
Do it again, you idiot!
Henge!
Are you doing that on...
Is this for real? You've been in the academy for three years, and you still can't transform properly?
You all just watch...
I'm going to become the real Hokage one day!
Are you stupid? You? Hokage?
I'll beat you in one hit out of pity.
Oh? Whatever...
But you can't defeat me.
I told you not to act tough!
Then...
Please begin...
(Gijyuu Ninpou, Shikyaku no Jutsu: Beast Mimicry, Four Legs Technique)
Gijyuu Ninpou, Shikyaku no Jutsu.
Let's go.
He's fast!
He won't be waking up for a while, Mr. Examiner.
Just as I thought.
There's no way that Naruto can beat Kiba.
Naruto-kun, you look so foolish.
See?
Geez, he's weak.
Naruto-kun.
Yes...
I'm going to become greater than the Hokages!
Then I'm going to make all the villagers recognize my existence.
Those words... I've made fun of them for a long time, too...
This is a Jounin... A real ninja.
I have to run.
At this rate... we'll... we'll get killed for sure!
Are you hurt...
Scaredy cat?
Become stronger than me.
Damn it!
Why you... Why did you do that?
The idiot and coward I see right now can't be the Sasuke I know.
Don't mess with us!
What...?
But I was wrong.
Hey...
Are you hurt...
... Scaredy cat?
I'm not going to take back my words.
That's my way of the ninja.
Naruto...
Tell everyone.
Don't...
Don't underestimate me!
Oh? Tough boy, eh?
Naruto-kun!
Get him, Naruto!
You're bleeding, so stop pretending to be cool!
Stop with the tough act!
I went easy on you! Just so I could see how strong you were.
Why don't you stop acting tough and use your dog or whatever!
You're going to regret that...
Let's go, Akamaru!
Smoke bombs?
Take this!
I can't see anything... This isn't good.
I have to get out of the smoke, or I'll get beat.
He fell for it!
What?
Damn it, I can't see anything.
All right! Way to go.
Good job, Aka...
Akamaru...? Why?
Why?
You fell for it.
You... transformed!
Ouch... Damn it...
Let go!
You taste like a dog!
Where's Akamaru?
Over here.
Akamaru!
Damn it...
No way, that's Naruto?
He's on equal ground against Kiba... No, he might even be better than him.
There's no way Naruto can do something crafty like using the Kage Bunshin and the Henge jutsu together.
He's good at using his jutsu at the right time.
He's better than I thought.
He sure is interesting... He bit the guy on his own, and then got mad.
Naruto-kun, that was amaz...
That was amazing, Naruto!
Looks like you've gotten a little stronger.
But it's over.
I'm going to get serious now.
Really? But you can never defeat me!
He's grown even more during the exam.
This is quite the surprise.
Is that the Naruto that was an all-time failure?
It looks like he's no longer the Naruto we knew.
Yes.
What did Kakashi do?
But...
The growth of Kiba and Akamaru might be greater than his.
Naruto.
You're going to give me back my Akamaru.
What the..? What did you give him?
His fur became red...
(Aka: Red)
That's why his name is Akamaru.
Food pills?
Kiba is planning to end this now.
Let's go, Akamaru!
(Gijyuu Ninpou: Beast Mimicry Ninja Technique)
Gijyuu Ninpou...
Jujin Bunshin: Half-beast Clone)
Jujin Bunshin!
His eyes look dangerous...
He used some weird drug! Isn't this considered doping?
Is this allowed?
Yes.
Food pills are considered a tool.
You always say that!
What the...? What did he eat?
A food pill.
Food pill?
It's a special medicine that allows a soldier who uses it to fight three days and three nights straight.
It's high in protein and is quickly absorbed into the body.
It also has substances that act as both a stimulus and tranquillizer.
Kiba and Akamaru's chakra have most likely doubled temporary.
Now this match will end.
Let's go!
Shikyaku no Jutsu!
Naruto!
Naruto is in a bad situation.
Kiba has chakra surrounding his body, and he is a total combat-type fighter that brawls like a beast.
The food pill that doubles his chakra is perfect for him.
Naruto-kun...
Crap.
This guy doesn't need a handicap.
Even if I gather all my chakra to my legs, I can only run away at most.
At this rate...
I see a vulnerable spot!
Take this! Man-Beast Taijutsu move...!
(Gatsuga: Fang over Fang)
Gatsuga!
That's our difference in skill.
I'm...
... going to become a Hokage... I can't lose here...
You? Hokage?
When you're weaker than me?
I'll become Hokage for you!
You know inside that you can't become Hokage,
so stop acting tough!
That's wrong, Kiba-kun...
Naruto-kun... isn't that weak.
I'm going to... receive the title of Hokage!
You all just watch!
Naruto-kun is different from me in that he believes in his own worth.
I really think he's amazing.
It's a very hard thing to do...
I understand.
But still, no one tried to...
Look at the true Naruto-kun.
Hey, that kid is the kid. He was the only one who failed.
Serves him right.
If he becomes a ninja, it's only going to cause trouble.
Because he's really a...
Hey, it's forbidden to say more than that.
No one tried to recognize the real Naruto-kun.
Bunshin no Jutsu!
But now...
Everyone is watching.
Stand up, Naruto!
Everyone has recognized him.
If you compete with me over the title of Hokage...
You're going to become the underdog.
Can you hear me?
The sky is limitless and blue,
The sea is endlessly large
to you, please keep your smile or else I'll cry.
you don't have to look around now
because everyone are in these hands
wanting to cry
wanting to run
if you forget happiness then sing
light was born and dark was born
the two is together
feeling harmonia, telepathy
Can you hear me?
