    Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kabuto are ambushed by ninja from the Rain Village. The Rain Ninja use a special jutsu that creates illusions of themselves. Every time one of the illusions is hit, it just comes back. They also are using real weapons and using the illusions to hide where their attacks come from. Naruto of course charges at them and Kabuto has to intervene to save Naruto from an attack. Naruto then performs his Multi Shadow Clone jutsu and he and his clones attack. The others join in and soon everyone is tired out. Now the Rain Ninja show themselves and .....moreless

    In this episode we see how much stamina Naruto has because even though he is exhausted he was able to punch a Rain Genin. Like Sasuke, I also thought that there was something I didn't like about Kabuto. He and I were correct. Kabuto in the end of this episode it is reviled that he is one of Orochimaru's spies or subordinates. In this episode both Kabuto and Sasuke's team get to the tower. I did like the episode. The episode had a lot of fighting because of the clones. The tricks that there were in this episode was also a good part because we see the trick that team 7 had making Naruto's clones seam like team 7.moreless

    Okay, now that the figured out that they have been spotted, it's time to battle the Rain ninjas. There were a lot of them. They attacked Team 7. After a while, they Team 7 was able to work together they beat all the Rain Ninjas. But those were the clones. The real ninjas were hiding behind the clones sending out attacks. Now the real battle starts. Kabuto save them a few times. With hard work from Sasuke using his Sharigun and Naruto using his Shadow Clones, they were able to defeat Oboro. This episode is was a very good episode .moreless

    Kabuto and Team 7 realize that the Rain Genins' clones are just illusions. Naruto sets up a trap. He disguises his own shadow clones to look like Kabuto, Sasuke, and Sakura. They fight all night, and the Rain Genin think that their opponents are too tired to move. Then the real Sakura, Sasuke, and Kabuto corner them. Naruto struggles, but manages to take down the Rain Genin team and take their scroll. At one point during the battle, Kabuto's eyes turned red. It was cool!!!!! Anwayz, after the battle, the four of them head towards the tower and meet up with Kabuto's team. Team 7 goes in their gate. Kabuto's team goes in their too, except Orochimaru is inside. Kabuto gives him all the information he collected on Team 7. He was lying to them the whole stinkin' time!!!!!moreless

    • In the scene where Sasuke is thinking about how surprising it is that Naruto still has the stamina to punch the Rain ninja, the leaf symbol on his headband is much smaller than it usually is. In the next shot, it is back to normal. Edit
