Naruto is having a hard time figuring out the gender of the armadillo and asked for the help of Killer Bee, but the armadillo refuses to tell. Meanwhile, Motoi senses something down below the sea is coming at them.
It is already expected that Tsuchikage won't go down that easily. The one that Deidara and Tobi have destroyed was Tsuchikage's rock clone. Akatsuchi and Kurotsuchi are both happy to see the resurrected Deidara. But Tsuchikage tells them that it's not the real one.
[GoogleAd]Motoi can't believe that their hideout is already known by the Akatsuki. The Turtle Island screams for pain when the Manda II bites its tail. As Kabuto and Deidara heard the scream, they immediately flew down the island to escape Tsuchikage.
Manda II is the clone of Orochimaru's Manda. Kabuto used many drugs to enhance the cells of Manda. He's proud that his creation is much better than the original one. This second Manda is bigger, stronger and wiser. When Deidara saw the island, he started to ask questions about it. Kabuto tells him that it's a giant turtle and inside it they will find the Eight and Nine Tails.
In order to stop the giant turtle from moving away, Deidara caused a huge explosion underneath it. And now, the giant turtle capsized, and it can no longer swim. Inside the turtle, Naruto and the rest of the people and animals are overturned. Thanks to Yamato's Wood Style Deep Forest Emergence Jutsu, they safely landed on trees. Despite of what's happening, Motoi tells them that they must still act like it's an S-Rank Mission, so that Naruto won't notice that there's something wrong going on.
Outside the turtle island, Deidara and Kabuto land on its tummy. Deidara battles with Tsuchikage and Akatsuchi, while Kabuto controls the serpent as it chokes the poor giant turtle. Inside, Naruto wants to go out and check, because he's confused with the tremors and the world-turning-upside-down. Thankfully, Yamato convinces Naruto to just stay and leave it up to them.
Aoba, Motoi and Yamato go outside and saw Kurotsuchi attacking Kabuto. Kurotsuchi used her Quicklime Jutsu, trapping Kabuto in cement. As a member of the Intel Division, Aoba interrogates Kabuto, still stucked on the cement. All of a sudden, Kabuto widely opens his mouth and a hideous creature gets out of his body. He has molted and attacks them. The molted Kabuto eats Yamato, and crawled fastly to his serpent. Kabuto went inside the nose of Manda and together they disappeared.
Tsuchikage helps Aoba get out of the cement. He is also worried about Yamato, and the intel he possesses. Kabuto goes back to the Akatsuki, and presents Yamato to Madara. Kabuto tells Madara that Yamato is the Nine Tails Guardian, and they can get useful intel from him.
At the Allied Shinobi Force headquarters, Tsunade, Raikage and the rest had an important meeting. Tsunade orders to contact Ao and the Sensory Unit. Gaara shows Tsuchikage the new Allied forehead protector that has been designed when he was gone. Fourth Great Ninja War is about to begin, ninjas are going through their formations, medical supplies are being checked and restocked. The title of this Naruto Episode is "Assemble Allied Shinobi Forces". Tsuchinage saves Nine Tails and Eight Tails, but Yamato gets captured.
