allow the rest of the team to go on. Jiroubou was extremely skilled in earth-based Ninjutsu as well as hand to hand combat, using a brutal style of elbows, shoulder tackles and head butts. However, Chouji had come prepared with a case of 3 special pills, each one increasing his abilities as they were consumed. Chouji began to turn the tables when he wound a thread around himself, lining it with kunai and launched himself, becoming a spiky moving sphere that even pierced a stone wall Jiroubou set up. The kunai lodged into him, drawing blood, forcing him to activate his cursed seal.

Chouji then moved onto another set of moves in his arsenal, enlarging his limbs to immense sizes and swatting Jiroubou. As a c’oup de grace, Choujihim even bigger trash, he prepared to deliver the killing blow to the helpless "Fatass". Chouji’s mind wandered back to the days when he was rejected by others, but Shikamaru was quite willing to do little more than hang out, watch the clouds and eat with him. Apologizing, Chouji took the last pill, knowing he wouldn’t be able to join the others.

As Jiroubou hit the ground, Chouji stood up. Huge streams of chakra emerging from him in the intricate shape of butterfly wings. Chouji himself had now changed in size as the pill instantly converted all the fat in his body into chakra, leaving him slimmer. Now even stronger than Jiroubou, he proceeded to punish him for what he did, transferring all the newly-made chakra into his hand.
