Arc 9The Demon Tribe’s Stand
Naruto and Sasuke helped the Demon Tribe survive Danzo the Wanderer’s black-armored army, then faced Danzo himself after bringing Kimimaro the Wanderer into their circle. Danzo appeared to die when Sasuke and a warrior struck him, but the arc left his Mangekyō Sharingan and the identity of the headless corpse unresolved.

- Naruto, Sasuke, Pain the Wanderer, and Jiraiya the Wanderer found tribes burned by black-armored warriors, rescued Konan the Wanderer, and learned Danzo the Wanderer was directing the attacks.
- Naruto stabilized Konan the Wanderer’s conflicting powers, and Tobirama the Wanderer and Zabuza the Wanderer organized the tribes against Obito the Wanderer and Danzo the Wanderer.
- The black-armored army attacked the Demon Tribe, but Naruto, Sasuke, Jiraiya the Wanderer, Pain the Wanderer, and the tribe’s fighters drove it back with powerful attacks.
- Obito and Torune the Wanderer attacked Naruto at the Demon Tribe, but Naruto used a Clay Clone and Flying Thunder God to injure Obito and leave Torune motionless before escaping with Sasuke.
- Naruto and Sasuke learned Kimimaro the Wanderer served Orochimaru the Wanderer, and Naruto treated the samurai poisoned during Torune’s raid.
- Kakashi the Wanderer carried the comatose Obito away through a spatial vortex, leaving Black Zetsu behind, while Danzo the Wanderer later found Black Zetsu and Torune’s body.
- As Naruto and Sasuke shared a meal with the Demon Tribe, Danzo the Wanderer arrived and killed a man, and Sasuke and another warrior struck him, leaving a headless corpse.
