Run!!! Curry of life (Japanese: 走れ!!!生命のカレー, - Hashire!!! Seimei no karē) is episode 157 of the anime series Naruto.

[edit] Plot

Rock Lee attempts to continue his fight with Raiga but the opponent asks why does he fight so hard. Rock Lee says that he wants Gai to acknowledge him. Raiga mocks him about how he lives for Gai and tells him that Gai conducts his funeral and uses Lightning Dragon Tornado. This basically creates a lightning tornado in the shape of a dragon. Meanwhile, Tenten and the others are pursuing Raiga and Lee gets shocked so hard that you see his bones and heart followed by him rolling down the cliff in a comedic way. Raiga looks down the cliff and wonders where Lee has gone and Tenten sees Lee in front of her and shakes Lee like crazy but he remains like a puppet.

Karashi decides to feed Lee and gives Tenten two plates of curry from a giant potful they brought along. Karashi's mom punches Karashi in the face and tells him to bring another plate to Neji. Karashi hurries off, with Ranmaru's help in holding Lee's mouth open, Karashi's mom dumps a giant spoonful in Lee's open mouth and makes him chew. Lee still stays asleep but soon he gets up and eats all of the curry in the pot like crazy. Tenten force feeds Naruto, with the result being Naruto able to breath a stream of fire. Naruto struggles and sees Tenten and asks wasn't she supposed to fallen off a cliff and Tenten responds that he should have known it was a trap. Karashi feeds a slightly woken up Neji with a spoonful of curry, who makes a shocked face and falls asleep again. Lee, who has finished all of the curry, falls head over heels and complains that the world is spinning.

Ranmaru wonders what is wrong with him and Karashi's mom explain's via flashback. A comedic skit follows of Karashi attempting to bring the heavy pot over to his mom, th weight causes him to stagger and knock a bottle of wine into the pot, this causes a chain reaction of other comedic events of other things falling on Karashi. She says that there shouldn't be any real problem but then Lee gets up and laughs hysterically. Ranmaru hears Raiga coming towards him and Karashi's mom. He tells her that he will go and distract Raiga. Ranmaru goes over and Raiga hugs Ranmaru with a bear hug and carries him on his shoulders while saying they should go have fun and do more bad things. Ranmaru turn's his eyes red and unleashes "Hiding in the Mist." Raiga wonders what the fog is about, Ranmaru states that he is their eyes and will guide them. Raiga agrees, Ranmaru starts to point Raiga in the direcion of the cliff. A startled Tenten realizes that Ranmaru plans to atone for all the trouble he has caused by sending him and Raiga off a cliff.

Ranmaru states there is nothing to worry about because Neji, Naruto and Lee are all dead, just then, a drunk loud Lee rushes toward their direction. Lee punches him hard and does a drunken dance and almost barfs. Raiga takes this as an insult and Lee dodges all the lightning attacks along with an upward kick. Ranmaru falls off and Naruto saves him. Naruto wants her to stay here but Ranmaru wants Naruto to take him with him to Raiga. Raiga can't find Ranmaru and says that he will remember this and uses Lightning Strike Armor. Raiga's body becomes covered in lightning and starts to run at Lee. Lee starts rolling around in the dirt in weird ways before finally charging towards Raiga. Lee gets a punch in at Raiga's abdominal area, but they both get thrown back by the force. Raiga gets up first from the ground and states that the armor protected him from receiving any damange while Lee was the one who receivd all the critical damage. Just then, Naruto jumps over Raiga and drops Ranmaru off on the ground. Ranmaru runs toward Lee and places out his arms to as shiled Lee from Raiga. Raiga asks what he is doing, Ranmaru states that they have been searching for the meaning of living for so long and that Raiga should try the Curry of Life so that they won't suffer anymore. He states that he will see that they are not alone and they must stop hurting people but Raiga covers his ears, saying that if Ranmaru says selfish thinks like that, they cannot be Two in One anymore!

Ranmaru wants Raiga to strike him down since if he was dead, their strength fails. Raiga summons two bolts of lightning to hit himself, which Naruto interprets as a threat and uses Mass Shadow Clones but Raiga is even angrier then ever. Lee wakes up and thinks he is drunk from seeing so many Narutos and goes back to sleep. Karashi is having his share of troubles as Neji refuses to wake up with Tenten awake. Tenten tries to feed Neji but Karashi waves his arms frantically and when Tenten feeds him, Neji's face turns red, then he scratches at his chest and falls asleep again. Naruto blames Raiga for trying to kill Ranmaru. Raiga can only think about how Ranmaru had apparently betrayed him and prepares to fight. Raiga says that he is the leader of the Seven Swordsmen Shinobi and Naruto asks him about Kisame. Raiga says that the next time he sees Kisame, he will conduct a funeral for him as well then saying that he hates everyone in the Seven Swords.

Raiga then says that Ranmaru was his only friend but Ranmaru had made other friends, then saying they are no longer two in one. He screams about who taught him of the outside world and uses his lightning to kill all of the clones in a single strike and prepares to kill Ranmaru. Five Naruto appear from the smoke and use his new move, Clone Whirling Heel Drop which kicks Raiga in the head with the heel 5 times in succession. Then Naruto uses Clone Body Blow then a punch of punches to the jaw. Raiga spits blood and falls over the cliff, saying to himself the Ranmaru is free and conducts his own funeral using his own lightning, basically incinerating him. Naruto stands over the edge along with Ranmaru and looks down.

Back at the Curry of Life Shop, Karashi is lecturing Ranmaru about how he makes curry and that he is too quiet.

"You have to mix curry more wholeheartedly in order to make it into the true curry of life."

Karashi's mom comes and bangs Karashi's head with a spoon, calling him impertinent and that he is a hundred years too young to know the meaning of true. Then that he has to start from the beginning as well. Team Gai prepares to leave and Tenten tells Ranmaru to do a good job. Karashi's mom says that it is a long trip of Konoha and made them 10,000 times stronger curry to sustain them. Team Gai looks at a red steaming blob of curry. They are astounded.

Tenten: What's with that terribly spicy-looking red color?

Naruto: It's making my eyes sting.

Lee *apparently in love with the curry*: It looks delicious!

Team Gai *astounded*: You can't be serious?!

Neji and Naruto grab Lee and run out the door, saying that they have to hurry or they will be late for Tsunade. Tenten hurries after them as Karashi's mother calls them a group of humble children. The episode ends with Lee screaming curry as he is dragged by Neji and Naruto.
