Naruto 461

Guidelines For Using My Translations

[TN: After returning from Japan, completing a hellish assignment (including losing about two hundred words in a crash and having to retype them from scratch), taking a breather and getting somewhat addicted to Tales of VS, I'm finally back and getting down to work on my backlog! Installment 7: three chapters of Naruto!]

1
[Insert text: Sasuke is unstoppable! He charges towards the Raikage...!!]
Juugo: Sasuke! / Don't charge in alone! // (He's lost his cool completely...)

2
Naruto
#461: Cloud VS Taka
Darui: Suiton: Suijinheki!!
[TN: Water Element: Water Barrier]
Sasuke: (Him...!)
Darui: Raiton: Kangekiha!!
[TN: Lightning Element: Wave of Awe]

3
Darui: Boss... it looks like this guy's affinity is lightning all right, just like the information states.
Shii: He possesses fire, as well. Doubtless he'll use his Katon jutsu soon enough. / ...Darui, be extremely careful how you use your water jutsu.
Darui: Yeah...
Suigetsu: Sounds like information on Sasuke's been leaking out, doesn't it?
Karin: That... That guy... in the middle... that couldn't be...
Juugo: These people are Jounin from the Cloud... / The big one in the centre is the Raikage. / They won't be easy to get past.
Samurai: Requesting backup. / We have been defeated by Sasuke.

4
Shii: (I'll stop him in his tracks!)
Juugo: Something's coming!
Shii: Raigen Raikouchuu!
[TN: Lightning Illusion, Shining Lightning Pillar]

5
Juugo: (Obscuring our vision?!) // ! // Sasuke...!

6
Sasuke: Don't let it throw you off, Juugo. This is genjutsu.
Shii: (That Sharingan is something...)
Raikage: You may have seen through it, but it's still too late!!
Sasuke: !
Karin: !! // (Sasuke!!)

7
Suigetsu: Nghh!! // (This guy's power is unreal!)

8
Suigetsu: If I weren't made of water, that would've taken both my arms off...! // Aghhhh... dammit! My Kubikiri-Bouchou...!!
Juugo: It was already damaged from the battle with the Hachibi, after all...
Darui: .........
Karin: Th... That was close...! / Nice work, Suigetsu!
Sasuke: Both of you... That was unnecessary.
Suigetsu: That's the thanks I get for coming out and saving your ass...? / You don't have to be like that! Even if it is like you...

9
Samurai: Shinobi fight such crude, rough battles... these people are outrageous!
Darui: Shii... investigate the area, find out if he has any other allies hiding nearby. / It'd be a huge pain if they just kept popping out one after the next...
Shii: I believe there was one more of them... / ...but if I focus on searching, it will be difficult for me to assist in the battle...
Darui: We don't need your help. / Me and the boss can handle these guys.
Karin: Crap...! At this rate, if I keep up my search for Danzou, that Shii will find me in no time! // I'll just have to conceal my chakra for the moment...
Suigetsu: I told Karin to see if she could find Danzou's location... / But I guess that plan's ruined. // I'm sure she'll conceal her chakra now... that's how her abilities are.
Juugo: That man in the rear is a tracking-type... we'll just have to take him out... // I'll handle it.

10
Samurai: Ao-dono... I would like you to confirm whether the Hokage's doujutsu is still active.
Ao: No... the Chakra flow within his body is calm for the moment. / His jutsu is inactive.
Danzou: Do not worry. / I cannot use my doujutsu many times in a day.
Ao: We will be the judges of that. / You are not a man to be trusted.
Danzou: To think that the Byakugan had fallen into the hands of another village... / Had you been a traitor Hyuuga from Konoha, I would have killed you at once.
Gaara: .........

11
Ao: I daresay since I possess one of your secrets, you now mean to eliminate me at some point... / ...but you will not succeed.
Mizukage: Should he attempt it, I will enter the fray. // The jutsu that manipulated the Fourth Mizukage, and that eye... / The two may be connected in some way.
Mifune: Hokage-dono... The use of ninjutsu in this place is forbidden. // You have lost a great deal of trust through your actions... I may have seen fit to choose you without the need to resort to such measures......
Danzou: A mere possibility was not sufficient. // I fully intend to use whatever means necessary to protect this shinobi world. // This world must be united. // Just as the First Hokage, Hashirama, united the clans to form a single village... / ...now, we must unite the villages and make the shinobi world as one. // Mere discussion will never be enough to achieve that unity... / Nothing will change if we take our time and allow morals to restrain us. // That will lead only to the destruction of this world at Akatsuki's hands.

12
Tsuchikage: It always takes time to bring one's ideals to fruition. // Being too hasty only causes a man to lose sight of his surroundings and ultimately fail... as you have just done. / At any rate, the ideal you speak of is an impossible one! // No matter how good your intentions, you will invite mistrust, ill feelings, and ultimately hatred. / Danzou... I cannot even trust the words you are saying right now.
Danzou: Trust, or the lack thereof, is not important... / What matters is results.
Gaara: If that is truly the nature of the world... of humans... then there is no future. // Sharing with one another... bonds of trust... / Remove those from the world and all that remains is fear. // These days I find immoral methods and resignation extremely difficult to accept.
Tsuchikage: You make difficult statements so easily... // ...for a brat who still knows nothing about governing a village...

13
Tsuchikage: If there's anything you'd like to ask, I suggest you do so. / Your elders here will be glad to give you some pointers... isn't that right, Danzou? ...Hahahah...
Kankurou: What was that, old man?!!
Temari: Leave it, Kankurou! He is still the Tsuchikage... the leader of another village!
Gaara: ...Then allow me to ask one thing.
Tsuchikage: Good! I will answer whatever you put to me... boy.
Gaara: When did you people abandon your selves?
Tsuchikage: !!
Danzou: .........
Mizukage: (Such a pure boy...)

14
Kankurou: Heh!
Temari: Now, Gaara... what do you propose we do? / We lent our assistance to Konoha in their original attempt to recover Uchiha Sasuke, but now he is working with Akatsuki...
Gaara: ...... // Uchiha... Sasuke...
Kurotsuchi: He sure got you there, huh, old man?
Tsuchikage: Oh, be quiet!
Akatsuchi: Tsuchikage-sama... what do we do now? / Do we depart for battle?
Tsuchikage: Don't be ridiculous! What if my joints got even worse?!
Kurotsuchi: I'd like to see this Sasuke... apparently he took out Deidara-nii!
Tsuchikage: ...Do as you wish! // But if you get mixed up in the Raikage's fight, you'll die for sure... don't interfere.

15
Kurotsuchi: All right! // What about you, Akatsuchi?!
Akatsuchi: I don't want anything to happen to the Tsuchikage-sama's back, so I'll stay with him.
Fuu: Danzou-sama... I would ask that you send one of us down there to retrieve the Sharingan.
Ao: Oh, you Konoha people are going to stay right where you are! // The Raikage-dono told me to keep an eye on you!
Danzou: Fuu, Torune, enough... we should do as they say for the moment.

16-17
Juugo: Guahahahahahah! I'll kill the lot of ya!! // Ahaaaahhh!!!!
Darui: That change of personality is even more striking than the physical alteration... this guy...
Shii: Concentrate! This man's chakra is outrageous!!
Suigetsu: That Juugo... he finally let his murderous urges loose. // You think he'll even remember we're his allies?
Raikage: Hmph... // Don't get so cocky!!!!
[Insert text: The Raikage's eyes are frenzied! This battle just got serious!!]
