Naruto Shippuden

There's no sign of the enemy.

I don't see our forces either.

We're too scattered.

We must gather the troops together.

You're right.

Captain Kakashi!

Yurui's unit is requesting reinforcements!

Omoi's in that unit. What's up?

They're engaged in a fight with Ameyuri Ringo!

Ameyuri Ringo…

One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen

who wields the Lightning Blade, Fang…

I'll go!

I'm going too.

Ameyuri Ringo uses the Lightning Style.

I may be able to neutralize her with my own Lightning Style.

The Lightning Blade: Ameyuri Ringo!

Stop hiding!

Isn't there anyone here that can send shockwaves through my heart?

Lightning Style: Lighting Fang!

Cowards aren't my type!

Where are the reinforcements?!

As punishment… I'm going to burn you to a crisp!

Lighting Style: Thunder Gate!

Yurui!

Hang on, Yurui!

It's over… Everything's…going dark…

Don't give up, Yurui!

Help is on the way!

Nurui… It's in… your hands now…

Yurui! Yurui!

Damn it! I've had it with this!

How many have died already?

Is this what war is?!

Are we the only survivors?

It looks that way.

I'll take command from now on.

I have seniority here.

Ameyuri Ringo went after the other platoon

in the other direction.

But she'll be back.

We have to decide what to do quickly.

It's obvious. We retreat.

Are we running away?

Just because she's one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?

Are you suggesting we take on Ameyuri Ringo?

Well…

That's not like you, Omoi.

I thought you were the cautious type, just like me.

War is not the place for revenge.

And besides, we don't have a chance

against someone with a Ninja Blade.

They are like elephants and tigers. We're mere ants.

Then why the hell are we here?!

Don't get full of yourself, Omoi.

Are you trying to be a hero now?

In any case, I'm the leader now!

We'll create a diversion for Ameyuri Ringo and make our escape.

How boring… Not a single soul to give me a thrill.

Oh, that's right.

There were two or three more back there.

Maybe they're more my type.

That flash of lightning earlier…

There's no doubt it was Ameyuri Ringo's Lightning Style.

Damage of this scope, in an instant.

Not even a hundred chunin could defeat her.

Well, who knows…

In a desperate moment like this,

a hero could rise up from among them.

Wishing for the survival of our scattered comrades

is one thing.

Hoping for a hero is just wishful thinking.

Whatever the case, judging from the traces of battle,

Ameyuri Ringo is headed north.

There should be survivors beyond that.

Let's hurry!

Damn it… If we keep running and running…

Pretty soon, we'll circle the globe.

And if we keep circling the globe over and over again,

we'll forget why the hell we're fighting.

And no one will think that I'm still alive.

I'll keep running and running until I die.

If that's the case, then…

Captain! Are we still gonna keep running away?

If we keep running, maybe the reinforcements will arrive

and take care of that bitch.

Waiting for others to bail us out?!

What are you doing?

We have to make it look like we put up a fight…

Otherwise, who knows what they'll say after the war.

How stupid. Talk about ego…

And this trap is so obvious!

It's like telling the enemy exactly which way we're running.

Nothing good's gonna come from following this guy!

You can't run away from me.

They call this a trap?

They must think I'm stupid.

I'm never going to let you go!

Just who is this Ameyuri Ringo anyway?

A woman known to be an exceptional user of the Lightning Style.

Although she died young from an incurable disease,

it's said she never lost her prey.

There's no escaping her?

That's enough, Kayui!

Nurui!

You knew this, and still…

Here she comes!

Damn it! She's faster than I thought.

Of course, she's gonna catch up! This is such a lame strategy!

We can't outrun her!

Let's fight!

No! It's no use!

How far can we run?!

She always gets her prey, right?!

I know!

Well, do you know that our lives are in your hands?!

That's why we're retreating!

How can you call yourself a shinobi?!

Have you even thought about our fallen comrades?!

Omoi! You don't understand Nurui!

And Nurui, you too!

Why don't…?!

Shut up, Kayui!

I've…

had enough of running!

Omoi…

I know…about your reputation in the village, Nurui.

Omoi! That's enough!

That you being cautious is just to hide your cowardice!

Well, I'm a cautious guy, but I'm no coward!

Stop it, Omoi!

Fighting is useless right now!

We can't be heroes!

The thought didn't even cross my mind!

I just keep seeing Yurui's face as he was dying!

And even if we escape somehow,

I can't go on living with that image

constantly flashing through my mind.

Stop it, Omoi!

Fighting is useless right now!

We can't be heroes!

The thought didn't even cross my mind!

I just keep seeing Yurui's face as he was dying!

And even if we escape somehow,

I can't go on living with that image

constantly flashing through my mind.

Omoi!
