At the desolated beach, the sand ninjas fight back against the armored bulky warriors. Gaara orders the ninjas to use Desert Imperial Funeral to shine a flare and reveal a large warship. Naruto Uzumaki, Shikamaru Nara and Sakura Haruno deliver a lost pet ferret to the village confusing as a cat. Soon, they meet to encounter a mysterious knight Temujin who falls from the cliff with Naruto. Shikamaru and Sakura then discover a giant ship. Naruto and Temujin wake up to find themselves in a moving caravan led by Kahiko and Emina, who named the ferret Nerugui. Shikamaru finds Kamina and Ranke activating the capsule lab and use the imprisoned children to place souls on each soldier bodies.
At the cathedral, warlord Master Haido informs Naruto and Temujin about the Gelel Stone, a mysterious powerful mineral controlling the traveling caravan which the annihilated clan lost it. Haido plans to get the stone in order to make the world in peace. Naruto and Temujin head to the beach, where Gaara defeats Ranke and Kamina flees, while Shikamaru and Sakura save Kahiko from Fugai. Temujin recalls his past memory, before Shikamaru restrains him and reunites with the others. They interrogate with Temujin, but he and Kahiko leave the caravan. At the Gelel Mine, Naruto and friends confront Haido for sacrificing anyone. As Haido and Naruto pursue Kahiko and Temujin below the platform elevator, Shikamaru, Sakura and Kankuro defeat Kamina and Fugai. At the Chamber of Sealing, Haido informs Temujin that he killed his parents. After destroying Teumjin's stone, Haido tries to use his power of the real one to kill him, but the sacrificing soldiers arrive to save the repentant Temujin. As Naruto uses the green and orange Rasengan to destroy the stone and defeat Haido, Naruto, Temujin and Kahiko discover the mine losing control. Temujin uses the Space-Time Hole to destroy the mine and Naruto saves him.
