The Konoha 11 rush in to contain Naruto's rampaging clone, and Dokku's belief helps the unconscious Naruto reclaim himself, just as Disonasu unveils the secret weapon buried beneath Tonika Village.
As the Nine-Tailed Naruto clone lunges at Dokku and the orphans, Might Guy and Rock Lee arrive to drive it back, and Kabuto again fails to bring the beast to heel. The rest of the Konoha 11 pour in: Team Asuma backs up Sakura and Kakashi while Team Kurenai covers Naruto. Tenten and Neji get boxed in by the reanimated puppets, and Kakashi breaks off to pursue Kabuto. The creature seizes the unconscious Naruto to drain his chakra, which the Nine-Tails willingly feeds it. Hinata tries to shield Naruto and is hurled back, caught mid-air by Neji.
Swollen with the stolen chakra, the beast grows larger and lays waste to Hachō Village, even loosing a Tailed Beast Ball that streaks past Yamato, Sai, Deidara, and Hidan battling outside the walls. Before it can crush Dokku and the boy, Kabuto summons a snake to gulp them both down and slips away. Deep within the Hole beneath Tonika, Naruto once more faces the Nine-Tails in his mind. Dokku calls to him and is met with fury, then asks what burden true strength carries and makes Naruto settle on why he wants power at all. Memories of his Konoha comrades and Sasuke flood back, and the seal within him regains its strength.
Dokku hands Naruto his own headband as a sign of faith. Elsewhere Leo sets out to rescue their teacher by fetching the mysterious iron bars the Tonika Village Head had spoken of. Inside the hall, Kabuto approaches with two reanimated puppets and Disonasu, exposing the leader's treachery, and Disonasu produces a scroll that reveals the Saezuri, a strange radiant light that stuns both Naruto and Dokku.
