Kisame quotes from Naruto

Kisame

Hey Itachi, it'll be a pain in the neck if this kid makes a run for it. Maybe I ought to chop off a leg just in case.

It's hard to believe it's been a year already. Your instructors tell me you're among the most playful of their students, always full of fun. You're very brave. It's hard to hide sadness behind laughter.

Iruka

[As a child] What makes you think I'm sad about anything?! It's a noble thing to die in the line of duty, right? My parents gave their lives to protect this place from the fox demon. I'm the son of heroes. How can I be sad when they died that way?! I'm not even sad because they went and left me all alone. If I cry, it's 'cause I'm proud.

It's all right, Iruka. I know that somewhere inside of you, there's a boy curled up in a ball of pain. But remember this, you are not alone. Inside every ninja of the Hidden Leaf Village burns the Will of Fire.

Iruka

The Will of Fire?

It's what gives us the strength to defend our village. It's the unbreakable bond that ties us all together. It's what makes us a family. I wonder, do you have it yet, young as you are?

Kakashi

Are those for Hayate? Better make it quick. The Hokage's funeral has already begun.

And you, Kakashi? Paying respects to Obito? Instead of constantly inventing new excuses for being late, why don't you simply come here earlier?

Kakashi

I did, I've been here since dawn. This place makes me think about the mistakes I've made in the past... and I've made so many of them.

Naruto

Iruka sensei, why do they do it? Why do people risk their lives for other people?

Iruka

Well, when someone passes away it's the end. His past and future, all the dreams he once had, they disappear along with him. This is true even if he dies honorably in battle as so many have, as Hayate did. All the ties that bind him to the living are severed, all but one, the most important of all: people. Parents, siblings, friends, lovers... the people who were important to him. And these people, the ones left behind, are joined together in a great circle by their shared memories of him, a circle of friendship, trust, and sacrifice that grows larger and stronger as time passes. It's hard to explain it. We remain in the circle together. We have no choice. It's important to us.

Naruto

So we do it because we have to. I get it, sort of. Still I'm sad he's gone.

Kakashi

Think how sad it would be if he died for nothing. But he left us something priceless. Don't worry, you'll understand one of these days.

Naruto

Hey give me some credit, that much I get.

Sakura

The rain, it stopped.

Naruto

Bye Iruka sensei, see you later.

Iruka

All right. Do you see it, Lord Hokage? The will of fire is stronger than ever. The sparks you left behind have kindled the flame among the young leaves on the next generation, a mighty flame, Lord Hokage. It will burn brightly and it will shine its light up on our village and keep it warm and safe for many years to come, and someday out of that flame will come a new Hokage.

Kisame

Well it survived, but barely. The damage is extensive.

Itachi

Not long ago it was at the height of its glory. Look at it now.

Kisame

[scoffs] You sound almost sad. Don't tell me you still have feelings for your old home?

Itachi

No. None.

Kisame

[about Asuma] This guy is getting on my nerves. Can I kill him?

Itachi

Well I guess we're not going anywhere without a fight. Just try not to overdo it. Your moves tend to stand out.

Kisame

They're as good as dead.

Itachi

I see, genjutsu.

Asuma

He's bearing down with just the edge of his sword. His strength is unreal.

Kisame

[his sword is revealed to be covered in dermal denticles] My massive blade, Sharkskin. It doesn't slice, it cuts to ribbons!

Kakashi

You're not the only ones, are you? There are seven more of you out there searching, hunting. I know all about you. You call yourselves the Akatsuki right?

Asuma

Akatsuki?

Itachi

Kisame, we'll take Kakashi, but we don't need the others. Get rid of them.

[intercepts Kisame] Severe leaf hurricane!

Kisame

Well, who have we here?

The Leaf Village's fiercest beast of battle, I'm Might Guy!

Kisame

You're Might Guy, huh? Mighty stupid looking Guy!

Kisame

[on Jiraiya] If we fight him, then both the Uchiha clan and the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist will have their names dragged through the mud.

Itachi

True, but still, even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness.
