In order to protect his village from Deidara's explosive clay, Gaara uses his chakra to create a giant sand shield.

In preparation for Tenchikyo, Yamato conducts a half-day simulation in order to get a grasp on the fighting skills and jutsu of Team Kakashi. Sai abandons Naruto to conclude the simulated mission successfully.
The day for capturing the spy is finally here. Just as planned, Yamato takes on Sasori's likeness and waits until the Akatsuki spy appears. The spy turns out to be none other than Kabuto.
Faced with Orochimaru, his sworn enemy, Naruto suddenly releases the power of his Nine-Tailed Fox. When Yamato sees Naruto's fourth tail appear, he recalls Jiraiya's tale of how he nearly lost his life to the transformed Naruto.

Naruto's strength is recognized by his fellow genin, except Sasuke. But while Naruto enjoys a close relationship with his father, Sasuke's father, Fugaku, constantly compares Sasuke with his older brother Itachi and barely pays attention to him…
Sasuke takes his frustrations out on Naruto and the two begin to fight, this time with their respective new jutsu. Minato steps in just before it turns into a disaster. From this encounter, Sasuke realizes that he is nowhere equal to Naruto in strength and joins the Leaf Police Force, determined to beat him one day.
Three years have passed since Sasuke joined the Leaf Police Force, and he's now lieutenant.

Now that his training with Jiraiya has ended, Naruto returns to Hidden Leaf Village and has an explosive encounter with Sasuke in the middle of town!

Sasuke has left with Orochimaru, but Naruto is not about to give up. Determined to bring Sasuke back, he returns to the village with Shikamaru and the others. Meanwhile, Yahiko appears in the village, calling himself "Pain" and seeking revenge for the Hidden Leaf's betrayal.
Seeing Hinata almost die triggers Naruto's anger and he goes into Nine Tails State. Naruto's power is enormous, but Pain releases his jutsu to seal him away. Hatred consumes Naruto as he tries to break the seal. With Naruto unable to calmly control the Nine Tails' power, the village steadily heads toward destruction.
Several months after Pain's attack, Jiraiya arrives with intel regarding the Akatsuki, who are attacking shinobi villages and kidnapping their Kage and jonin. He also reveals that Sasuke is working with them. Naruto is determined to bring his friend and comrade Sasuke back, once and for all!
Naruto wants to bring Sasuke back to the village, but Sasuke burns with a desire to bring Naruto down. Why is Sasuke so confrontational, and how did his feelings toward Naruto develop? The truth rises to the surface during Sasuke's relentless attack. Where will this battle lead? Find out in the conclusion of the "Jiraiya Ninja Scrolls."
The shinobi under Madara's Infinite Tsukuyomi continue to slumber and have pleasant dreams. Meanwhile, Naruto and the others have escaped the genjutsu, thanks to Sasuke's protective Susano'o. As Sasuke starts remembering the death of Itachi, his Sharingan starts to resonate and show him the truth that Itachi never spoke a word of.
Having experienced the Great Ninja War as a young child, Itachi constantly questions the meaning the life and death, distancing him from other children his age. Soon after entering the Academy, Itachi exhibits his genius and finds himself at the top of his class.
Upon graduating from the Academy, Itachi becomes a genin and joins a team that includes Tenma, Shinko, and their Jonin Leader, Minazuki Sensei. They accept a mission from Granny Cat to look for a missing feline who's a skilled Ninja Cat!
Itachi accompanies his friend Shisui on a three-part training exercise. The two come across a battle between the Hokage's ANBU and the Foundation. Itachi is confused by their motives and can't discern which side is right or wrong. But Shisui is unwavering in his determination to stop the fighting.
Itachi joins the ANBU and is quickly promoted to captain. But he must report directly to Danzo, and is placed as a double agent to observe the Uchiha clan, who are in the midst of planning a coup d'état. With dissatisfaction rising within the clan, the Uchiha ultimately decide to carry out their revolt, and the fateful night approaches.
Itachi becomes a rogue ninja and joins the Akatsuki. He is welcomed and introduced by Pain and Orochimaru as the ex-Leaf ANBU and the man who massacred his entire clan. Itachi is paired up with a man named Juzo, and their first job together is to fulfill an assassination request in the Land of Water.
Itachi is partnered with Kisame and begins his missions as a member of the Akatsuki. The duo succeeds in recruiting Deidara, so Pain assigns the newly formed team of Deidara and Sasori to hunt down the deserter Orochimaru. Meanwhile, intel comes in about an immortal killer, so Itachi, Konan and Kakuzu head out to the Land of Steam.
Itachi confronts Sasuke, who for years bore the shame and anger that Itachi brought upon their clan. The truth behind Itachi's story comes to light. Back on the battlefield of the Fourth Great Ninja War, Naruto and the others fight Madara, and just as he is declaring his victory, something unexpected occurs...
Kaguya Otsutsuki suddenly emerges from Madara's body. She is the mother of Hagoromo, the Sage of the Six Paths who entrusted his powers to Naruto and Sasuke. Kaguya's power is immense and instantly sends Naruto and Sasuke to an alternate dimension. Naruto and Sasuke are the only ones who can seal away Kaguya, but they can't find a jutsu that works against her!
Kaguya Otsutsuki suddenly descends from the heavens as the people of the Land of Sou look on in surprise and suspicion. But their king, Tenji, is enthralled by her and takes her for his concubine. In this age of endless war, Kaguya wishes for nothing but peace. But as the self-proclaimed protector of the Divine Tree, she soon finds herself engulfed by the tides of chaos and war.
Near the Divine Tree is an area known as the Peak of Demise. No one is allowed to go near it, except those chosen by Kaguya to undergo a ritual she has established. Gamamaru, a Sage Toad, says the truth lies beyond the peak—those words stir Hagoromo's curiosity, and he decides to head out to investigate.
Kaguya is furious that Hagoromo has broken the law. Hagoromo finds out what Kaguya did in the past and makes up his mind to fight her. Knowing nothing about her, Hagoromo cannot trust her—he wonders if the love and the despair she experienced are the sole cause of her anger. Unable to reach an understanding, mother and sons begin their long, sad battle.
Black Zetsu reveals that he masterminded and influenced all the events from the end of Ashura and Indra's era to the current Fourth Great Ninja War. Naruto rejects Black Zetsu's claim that the entire history of shinobi was solely for the resurrection of his mother, Kaguya. Naruto and Sasuke work together to seal away Kaguya, but they can't find a way to counter her.
The Infinite Tsukuyomi does not affect Hashirama, Tobirama, Hiruzen and Minato because they are reanimated. Hagoromo, the Sage of the Six Paths, appears and explains to the four that Hashirama and Madara are the reincarnations of his sons Ashura and Indra. Hagoromo recounts the tale of how he founded Ninshu, the Ninja Creed, and about the lives of Ashura and Indra.
Hagoromo's two sons, Ashura and Indra, share a happy childhood, training and playing together. Indra is naturally gifted with great talent, and at a tender age is nicknamed the "genius of Ninshu." On the other hand, Ashura has no aptitude for Ninshu. Still, the two boys are very close. But Hagoromo is unaware of the malevolent power stirring in the shadows…
Hagoromo sends the brothers to two battle-scarred regions left untouched since the fight with Ten Tails. He then announces that he will choose his successor depending on the outcome of their missions.
Ashura sets out on a journey, intending never to return. He ends up in a village where the people suffer from a mysterious illness.
Everyone believes that Indra is the best choice to be Hagomoro's successor, and the sage's indecision begins to cause anxiety among his followers. Finally, Ashura returns home, and Hagoromo reveals who he has chosen.
Finally, the truth will be revealed... Do not miss the unveiling of the legend.
Before Naruto and Sasuke can attempt to seal Kaguya away, she transports Sasuke into a different Time-Space. Obito realizes that Kaguya's ability to travel through Time-Space is similar to Kakashi's and his own Visual Prowess. Obito and Sakura team up and begin the search for Sasuke.
Fearing that he will once again break a promise, Obito uses the last of his power to bring Sasuke and Sakura back, but the thought of his inability to protect Rin nags at him as he loses consciousness.
Recalling the time when he shared Naruto's desire to become Hokage, Obito opens up to Naruto about his dreams.
Chakra—whose energy connects this world to those beyond—allows Obito to leave Rin's side for a moment and appear in Kakashi's inner psyche. Obito gives him his Magekyo Sharingan and leaves with a parting wish that Kakashi become the Sixth Hokage
Team 7 joins forces and succeeds in sealing away Kaguya, and the Tailed Beasts that Kaguya absorbed are also freed. Black Zetsu escapes the seal to lie in wait for another time to resurrect his mother, but Naruto is not about to let him go!
The battle with Kaguya is over, and all that is left is for Naruto and Sasuke to combine their powers and release the Infinite Tsukuyomi. But before they can do this, Sasuke makes a shocking declaration.

Naruto and Sasuke are enveloped in a huge, intense light after exchanging attacks. When they come to, scenes from their childhood unfold. Is this just a figment of their imagination? Or could this be the afterlife?
"I'll be a better shinobi than Lord Hokage! Then all the villagers will have to acknowledge my existence at last!" True to his word, Naruto has walked his own path until there are none who do not recognize that he's become a great shinobi and a hero who has saved the world. But what path will Naruto take now? How will the world of the shinobi change? This is the story of the boy who blew through the hearts of all like a "shippu," an irresistible gale. This is the story of Naruto Uzumaki.
As a result of having the Nine Tails sealed inside of him, Naruto is feared and hated by the villagers. He trains all alone in the woods, but one day, a certain man appears and strikes up a conversation with Naruto. Elsewhere, in the Leaf Village, a celebration is held to mark Hinata's third birthday, where she meets Neji for the first time.
As a child, Sasuke craved attention from his older brother Itachi. Sasuke and Itachi have a chance to spend some time alone when their parents are away. Meanwhile, Sakura is very shy and tends to spend her free time by herself. One day, her new friend Ino gives her a present.
Gaara spends his days with Yashamaru, his surrogate parent. Meanwhile, a bored Shikamaru pulls a prank on Choji.
Ever since he was young, Jiraiya has been a little pervy. He tries to involve Orochimaru in many of his exploits as well as his schemes to get Tsunade's attention. In Kakashi's story, we see him living on his own since his father, Sakumo, died. Rin and Obito are fascinated by Kakashi, but his aloofness makes him hard to figure out.
"The fourth Great Shinobi World War has ended. But Sasuke decides to continue his solitary journey—this time to atone for his sins. Meanwhile, back at the Leaf Village, there is a growing number of missing shinobi. As Kakashi—the sixth Hokage—and the others discuss these incidents, the Leaf is attacked by a mysterious group of shinobi."
Instead of returning to the Hidden Leaf, Sasuke sets out with Chino and Nowaki to investigate the cause of the exploding humans.
Orochimaru brings Sasuke to the Coliseum fighting ring, to lure out En Oyashiro, who may have some information regarding the Exploding Human incident. The match is called off when more Exploding Humans appear and the opportunity to meet Oyashiro seems lost. However, impressed by Sasuke's Sharingan, Oyashiro approaches him in person.
Sasuke uncovers Fuushin's true identity at last, and begins to fight him. The moment Sasuke tries to read Fuushin's memories with his Sharingan, a wave of genjutsu from a massive red eye causes Sasuke to lose consciousness. He awakens to find himself alone, and sees tracks in the snow that indicate Fuushin has barely escaped alive.
After the Great War, many missing and Rogue Ninja made their way into the Land of Silence. Sai, who has infiltrated the region to investigate, sends a cryptic message back to the Leaf. Shikamaru, determined to find out what's happening, heads for the Land of Silence with two members of the ANBU, Soku and Ro. However, they must first get past a heavily guarded checkpoint.
Shikamaru and his team are within range of Fushu Castle, where Gengo is purported to be. But they are unable to glean any intel about the man. Learning that Gengo will make a public appearance, Shikamaru and company infiltrate the square, where they see Sai being held captive.
Shikamaru is captured while trying to save Sai and stop Gengo. Far from giving up, he racks his brain to find a away out of the situation. Just as an opportunity presents itself, Ro and Soku appear under Gengo's control!
Ino, Choji, and Temari rush to Shikamaru's aid! Choji takes on Ro, Temari goes after Soku, and Ino goes after Sai! Meanwhile, Shikamaru pursues Gengo. Can Shikamaru defeat Gengo's evil ambitions? The final battle begins!

He's advised that the gift should be something that befits the Kazekage. He also learns that the Raikage is planning to perform a dance. Kankuro chimes in and suggests Gaara should dance as well—further plunging Gaara into indecision.
Shino and Kiba still don't have a wedding gift for Hinata's wedding. Kiba's made it his goal to become the next Hokage, but unlike his teammates, who are steadfastly chasing their dreams, Shino is unsure about his.
