{{ | The episode begins with {{TRT}} after they had captured {{an|Serena}} and [[Shinobu]] instead of their intended target. However, Shinobu performs the ninja body switch, allowing the two to readily escape Team Rocket's capture device. The {{p|Skarmory}} then blast Team Rocket out of the village. | ||
Meanwhile, Ash and Sanpei begin to battle against [[Heidayu]]. Heidayu's {{p|Bisharp}} dodges all attacks from {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Frogadier}}, and [[Sanpei]]'s Greninja, and then attacks all three with {{m|Shadow Claw}}. Despite Frogadier's frubbles and Greninja's {{m|Night Slash}}, Bisharp remains unfazed and proceeds to attack them with {{m|Snarl}}. As they are about to lose against Heidayu, [[Saizo]] comes in to battle with his {{p|Barbaracle}}. Outnumbered, Heidayu retreats on a Skarmory, mentioning that he had bought enough time for Kagetomo. While Ash and Sanpei try to go after him, Saizo stops them, explaining that acting carelessly may cause them to lose their opportunity to save [[Hanzo]]. At the village, the Skarmory fleet have also begun to retreat. | |||
At [[Otori Mountain]], Hanzo is captive with Kagetomo and his ninja corp. Hanzo tells Kagetomo to remove his mask as it was obvious from the ropes tying him that it was he who had captured him. | |||
At the village, Saizo tells everyone that it was Kagetomo and his henchmen who had kidnapped the chief. He explains to Ash and his friends that Kagetomo was a powerful ninja from the [[Ninja Village]] who was to be the next village chief. However, he had run away with Heidayu because he was denied the position of chief due to his thirst for power. Kagetomo had then formed a ninja force to capture Hanzo. Saizo had planned to stop him, but had come to late to save Hanzo. | |||
Back at Otori Mountain, Hanzo asks Kagetomo whether it was the chief's emblem that he desired. However, Kagetomo says that he would not steal it, but instead, Hanzo would give it to Kagetomo at tomorrow's festival and announce him the new chief. In the meantime, one of the villagers had found where Hanzo was being held captive. Heidayu notices this and tells Kagetomo. However, Kagetomo is unfazed, and reveals that it was all part of his plan. | |||
Ash and the group, along with Sanpei, his brothers, Shinobu, and some villagers, begin to head off to Otori Mountain. Along the way, Heidayu and some of his ninja subordinates intercept them. Nihei says to Saizo that they will handle things here while Saizo and [[Ippei]] go on. A raging battle then starts between Heidayu's ninja force against Ash and his friends. Ash brings out his Pikachu and Frogadier while Sanpei brings out his Greninja. Both again battle Heidayu and his {{p|Bisharp}}. | |||
Back at the village Hanzo declares Ippei as the new village | During that time, Saizo and Ippei have reached Hanzo, and Kagetomo challenges Ippei to a battle. Kagetomo states that the winner of the battle will become chief over the Ninja Village. Ippei's Greninja and Kagetomo's Weavile then begin a fierce battle. | ||
On the other side, Ash and Sanpei are having trouble defeating Heidayu's Bisharp. After knocking Pikachu, Frogadier, and Greninja with {{m|Snarl}}, Bisharp runs to attack the injured Pikachu with {{m|Shadow Claw}}. However, before the attack lands, {{p|Frogadier}} jumps ahead of {{AP|Pikachu}} and pushes back Bisharp. As it does so, Frogadier evolves into {{p|Greninja}}. Ash's evolved Greninja then attacks with its newly learned {{m|Water Shuriken}} and thereafter transforms into Ash-Greninja for first time. It then quickly defeats Bisharp with an extremely powerful {{m|Cut}} and then reverts back to its original form before Ash could understand what had happened. {{an|Clemont}}, {{an|Serena}}, Nihei and Shinobu then readily defeat the other ninjas. | |||
Meanwhile, Ippei is facing difficulty battling Kagetomo's {{p|Weavile}}. Hanzo silently appreciates Weavile's power but says that it lacks one thing which Ippei has. As the battle continues, Ash and the rest arrive to see Ippei battling Kagetomo. Ippei's Greninja uses {{m|Double Team}} which Weavile promptly removes with a powerful {{m|Giga Impact}}. However, in that time, Greninja | |||
emerges from the ground to attack Weavile. It then finishes off with Water Shuriken, defeating Weavile. While Kagetomo becomes angry at Weavile, Hanzo tells Kagetomo that his Weavile is far stronger than Ippei's Greninja. But Hanzo mentions that Kagetomo lacks one thing Ippei has, that is, devotion for the dreams of the people, Pokémon, and even the whole world. | |||
Back at the village, Hanzo declares Ippei as the new village chief as he passes the chief emblem to him. Later, Kagetomo with Heidayu, Hanzo and Ippei, accepts his mistakes and decides to dedicate his powers for the world. For this, Kagetomo decides to go off on a journey to explore the world. He then tells Ippei to take care of the village before leaving with Heidayu. | |||
Next morning, Ash and his friends leave the Ninja Village with their best wishes. After they leave, at the underground monument for the village hero, Nihei tells Hanzo, Ippei and Saizo about Ash's Greninja's mysterious transformation. Ippei mentions that this must mean the hero from the past had saved the village again. | |||
