[flashback] Each of you will be given a new team to lead. These earrings are my gift to you to celebrate our success. Whatever the future holds never forget you were members of Squad 10.
The Leaf aren't heathens. They venerate their ancestors and follow the Will of Fire. In fact, one could say their motives for fighting are just as justified as yours.
No. I do not intend to ridicule the reasons why you do battle. After all you and I are birds of a feather. It doesn't matter what you do to justify war. Religion, philosophy, resources, land, revenge, love, even on a whim. No matter how trivial the motive, they're all worthy causes for war. There will always be war. The reason can be found later. Human instinct seeks conflict.
The villages have downsized to save money, and many shinobi have lost their jobs. Shinobi exist to fight. They risk their lives for the sake of this land, yet this is how they're rewarded.
If I can't look left and right at the same time all by myself, then I just need to create more clones. They can look left and right for me and then I can divide up the responsibility.
So my shadow clone earlier gave you a hint huh? Of course only Naruto has both the chakra and the shadow clones for a method like that to work. I couldn't accomplish that. I bet even the Fourth Hokage couldn't. But him... Just what I expect from a ninja like you, Naruto. You're full of surprises. I'm not sure how to say this, but I think I've started to take a liking to you kiddo!
I know teamwork's important, but right now I need to cross this bridge and cross it alone, no matter how dangerous a bridge it turns out to be. If I can't work my way to the other side, I'll just be a kid forever. [Sasuke appears in his mind] So please, please don't take away my chance to prove what I can do.
You and your God don't frighten me. You see, you can I believe in different things. Wanna know what I believe in? The will of fire. Right now the god you should be worried about isn't your stupid Jashin or anyone else. It's me. Because I'm the one who's about to pass judgment!
[last words] You fool! Don't say I didn't warn you! The day of retribution will come, and the Way of Jashin will punish you! Yes, and then I'll be the one passing judgment! My teeth, that's all I'll need, you'll see! And I'll tear you to pieces!
