Lee's Primary Lotus to counter attack Tenten fails and Lee fall deep into the canyon. Tenten looked into the deep canyon, but when Lee wasn't coming out she had a flashback.
Tenten has always been a huge fan of Lady Tsunade as a legendary kunoichi. She has always strived to be Tsunade and swore to become her.
Guy sensei lectured Lee, Neji and Tenten that one can strive to be a great ninja even without genjutsu and ninjutsu, so long as they have great passion and determination. Lady Tsunade is exceptional when it comes to taijutsu especially with her strength. Once she almost killed Jiraiya, her sensei and legendary Sannin.
When Tenten got a bit frustrated with all the training and little results, Lee tried to calm her down by telling her that Tsunade was lucky to inherit the talents of First Hokage. Talent is not more important than determination though. Each shinobi is simply suited to different things. Lady Tsunade does have talent, monster strength and abilities of a Medical Ninjutsu. When Lee mentioned Medical Ninjutsu, Tenten was very interested.
After Lee put in a good word to Medical Corps, Tenten started learning Medical Ninjutsu. Her first attempt to control chakra of a fish and to revitalize the fish cells, did not go so well. She was told she wasn't suited for it. The fish turned out to be a great dish they all enjoyed. Tenten was frustrated with the fact that she wasn't suited for any great skills Tsunade had, but when Lee mentioned Summoning jutsu Tenten's eyes lit up.
Lee explained to her that Summoning jutsu is a type of Transportation Technique and he let Tenten try it out. Summoning to Tenten's great surprise worked out just fine. Lee suggested that she signs a contract and using his Summoning Jutsu transported ninja tortoise. But Tenten expected a slug instead, so this ninja tortoise got insulted and left. Lee explained to Tenten that getting a summoning contract is not an easy task.
Tenten had tried getting into a bar to drink sake and start gambling, as for these Tsunade is also legendary, but since she is under age she got kicked out. Guy sensei seeing how hard Tenten keeps trying to be someone she is not, pronounced her a Ninja Tool Specialist.
Lee says that he has to open up to number five, the Gate of Closing of the Eight Inner Gates. This is of course a forbidden jutsu, that eat away at the body of the user. Rock Lee wants to learn this one badly, but because of his illness he was refused shinobi status by Tsunade. This was a death sentence to Lee. Lee underwent a surgery and right after his surgery went out to save Gaara from Hidden Sand. Guy sensei was of course tremendously happy to see Lee live and well.
Scene goes back to the beginning when Tenten thought she lost Lee in this waterfalls. Tenten dives in and Lee is saved. Lee realized that to move up a level in the Eight Inner Gates he may have to train even harder. Tenten suddenly realized that she no longer wants to become Lady Tsunade. She just wants to be a legendary kunoichi.
The title of next Naruto Shippuden episode 238 is "Sai's day off". Sakura and Naruto are friends. There are friends and there are comrades. What is the difference? Well this is a difficult question is it not?
