Jiraiya saves Naruto from Kisame just in time. It turns out that Itachi and the Akatsuki organization are definitely after Naruto to obtain the power of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Intent on confronting Itachi, Sasuke rushes to the town where Naruto is staying. On the way, tragic memories of his past come flooding back.

Naruto is helpless against Gaara's immense power. However, after seeing Sasuke risking life and limb to save him and Sakura...

While Naruto declares that he fights for his comrades, Gaara says he fights for himself. Gaara's sad past is revealed. Naruto compares Gaara's past with his own and begins to feel compassion towards him.

By the time Naruto and Sakura catch up, Sasuke has exhausted his strength and collapsed.

Half of Gaara's body has transformed and Sasuke continues his battle against him.

Shino appears as Sasuke and Kankuro battle. Leaving Shino to handle Kankuro, Sasuke goes after Gaara.

The battle between the Hokage and Orochimaru rages on. Finally, the Hokage resorts to a Jutsu unknown to Orochimaru, the Sealing Jutsu known as “Reaper Death Seal.”

Sasuke finally catches up to Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro. Kankuro escapes with Gaara leaving Temari to face Sasuke.

Orochimaru traps the Hokage inside a barrier and continues to battle.

Along with Pakkun, Naruto, Sakura and Shikamaru are in hot pursuit of Sasuke. Pakkun senses nine of Orochimaru's men coming after them.

The Sound and Sand Ninja, along with Orochimaru, begin their move to destroy Hidden Leaf Village. The arena becomes a battleground.

During the match, someone has used genjutsu to put everyone in the arena to sleep. The Sand Ninja led by Orochimaru have begun their plan to destroy the Hidden Leaf Village.

Sauske's speed and moves are identical to Lee's taijutsu. But Gaara is not an opponent who can be defeated with just taijutsu.

Sasuke and Gaara'a match begins. Gaara begins his attack, but Sasuke has increased his speed to a level that amazes the audience.

In Shikamaru and Temari's match, Shikamaru who had the upper hand suddenly makes a surprising decision!

Sasuke's match is postponed and suddenly, it is Shikamaru's turn. He has shown no eagerness to fight, thinking that his is merely a secondary match...

Lee decides to use the forbidden move, Hidden Lotus, as a last resort.

Lee uses the banned technique Primary Lotus to attack Gaara.

Gaara finally appears in the ninth match, and his opponent is taijutsu (physical technique) specialist Lee.
