Episode Summary
Dawn at the Valley of the End. The last exchange is barely a jutsu at all — two emptied bodies trading a punch that costs Naruto an arm and Sasuke the argument. They wake side by side on the riverbank, too broken to move, and finish the fight the only way it was ever going to end: talking. Sasuke's confession of envy and loneliness, Naruto's refusal to let him bleed out alone, and the seal of reconciliation re-staged with stumps and a shared trickle of blood. The series' founding rivalry closes its loop.
