A stone statue?!!
He switched places!
You're sloppy, Kinshiki.
Rinnegan, huh.
Uzumaki Naruto is my father,
he's not like the others.
And he's the busiest shinobi in the village.
In other words, he is the Seventh Hokage.
But, that's no excuse...
...for him to ignore me.
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
You really trashed everything here.
I am your opponent, you damn panda.
Huh? That's a bear.
It's a bear that looks like a vicious panda.
Piece of cake. It's only an ugly panda!
I said it's a bear. Boruto, you idiot!
Does that really matter?
What's most important now
is to lure this bear-panda towards Konohamaru-Sensei
Cha—?!
See? That panda was a piece of cake.
Leave it to the son of the Seventh and grandson of the Fourth.
Someday, he'll probably become the Hokage too, huh?
I'm going to be the Hokage!
Shadow Paralysis Jutsu!
The recovery team will be here soon.
Thank you so much.
Umm, Konohamaru-Sensei.
That jutsu you used earlier.
Wasn't it a Secret Jutsu of the Nara Clan?
Yeah.
Wow, cool!
Is that the new Scientific Ninja Tool I've heard rumors about?
News reaches you fast, Mitsuki.
It's a prototype from the Scientific Ninja Tool Team.
Getting data from this was also part of the mission.
It's an extremely small scroll.
This contains that jutsu?
This thing can seal ninjutsu.
Shikamaru-san's Shadow Paralysis Jutsu was sealed in this.
This is my Rasengan.
I can...
...release it like this!
Wow!
That's amazing. Can anyone use it?
Yeah.
Chakra has nothing to do with it. I would even go so far as saying.
You don't even have to be a ninja to use it either—
Konohamaru-Sensei.
Since one's own chakra isn't involved,
the aim could go off a little which could pose a problem.
The most important thing is to communicate properly, you know?
You're right.
As the Seventh Hokage, Naruto-san just said.
That's how our current peace was established
after the wars in the past.
But we must not forget that this peace was made possible
through the many sacrifices of many shinobi.
That's right, you know?
So, to ensure that these fallen shinobi of past wars
did not die in vain, and to preserve this peace,
we must teach the youth
of the next generation, about this.
That's right, you know.
We can't say that the scars left by the past wars between
the five villages have completely healed.
However, through the efforts of the Seventh Hokage,
the five villages which were once at odds have become one.
And step by step, they are making inroads toward progress.
You've got that right, you know.
We are an advanced society of information and communication,
and we must also continue to guard the peace and prosperity that we have secured.
Now, about the Chunin Exams which, for the first time,
the five villages have agreed to sponsor together.
Do you have any words for the genin who will be taking part?
Naruto-san.
Just remember these three things!
Teamwork, perseverance and
• • • •
That's all! Good Luck to everyone!
That was just two.
Anyways, thank you for those inspiring words.
We've been bringing this to you live today.
Hey, Dad, I'm not talking to a Shadow Clone, am I?
Of course not. This is the Hokage's office.
And by the way,
don't call me "Dad" in here. It's Hokage-sama or Lord Seventh.
So? How did it go?
Well, it was an easy mission. I could've done it all by myself.
What's important for a shinobi is teamwork and perseverance.
You must train as a team—
I didn't even have to train to create three Shadow Clones of myself.
I know Wind Style, Lightning Style, and recently, even Water Style—
Konohamaru!
What have you been teaching him?!
Just because you don't know anything about me
don't blame my teacher!
You've never even bothered to watch me!
Forget it.
What's important is—
Never mind that.
You do know what day it is today, don't you?
If you forget my lil sister's birthday, I will never forgive you.
Excuse me.
Oh, Katasuke.
As the head of the Scientific Ninja Tools Team,
I have a request, Lord Seventh.
What is it?
For the upcoming Chunin Exams,
we would like your authorization to use
the scientific tools developed by our team!
Then the genin won't have to go through such harsh training
and they can widen the scope of their individual ninjutsu!
Their performance will also be more elaborate.
And if we market them to other villages,
The outside income will benefit the Hidden Leaf Village.
No!
The Chunin Exam is not a performance.
The purpose is to nurture shinobi.
I see.
I'm sorry I bothered you.
This isn't the lame era you grew up in, Dad.
Hey, Boruto! Wait!
I was about to give him the application for the Chunin Exam!
Here you go.
Thanks again.
Don't forget the new software too.
You know I won't.
By the way, Young Lord, are you taking part in the Chunin Exams?
Nope.
That's a shame.
I'm sure everyone wants to see your skills.
Especially your father.
The Hokage is in the audience during the Chunin Exams?
Of course.
m 0 0 l 1834.75 0 l 1834.75 187.875 l 0 187.875
BORUTO, LEVEL MAX
So, you're also a pro at video games.
CHUNIN
What do you want, Mitsuki?
I already said I'm not interested!
Konohamaru-Sensei asked us to give this to you.
We need a three-man team,
in order to qualify for the Chunin Selection Exams.
If you don't apply, we can't take part.
Like I care.
My dream is to become the Hokage.
Are you going to destroy my dream?!
I...
...don't want to be the Hokage!
The Hokage's position isn't hereditary.
Fine. You can become the Hokage, then.
And stay alone for the rest of your life!
A Hokage is a nuisance to the people around him!
Boruto, we need a third person too, or we can't advance.
We don't have a chance to beat the next boss without you.
Then, I'll give you my data.
This one has shortcuts and is really easy.
Uh, I don't really want that.
It's okay. Someone gave them to me.
What?!
It's a cheat.
Huh? You leaving?
Yeah.
This is only fun because I have to sneak away from Mom to play it.
Oh well, I'd better go too.
We should at least have our applications.
Look, we are a team. Can we talk about this?
Come on, Boruto.
Let's show Lord Seventh what we've got!
In these exams!
I'm sure everyone wants to see your skills.
Especially your father.
Okay I get it already.
You want me to participate? Fine, I'll participate.
He's so simple.
By the way, Sarada, is your dad coming to watch?
Who cares about someone who couldn't become the Hokage?
You're wrong. My dad used to say,
that Uncle Sasuke is the other Hokage.
He's just being modest!
Sasuke-san is the only shinobi who could rival the Seventh Hokage.
That's according to my parents, who's even more awesome than both of your dads.
What is it?
By the way, who are your parents anyway?
You've never told me either.
Well, it's—
Onii-chan!
Today is my birthday! Hurry up and let's go home!
OK!
Sorry, I have to go!
Hurry up, Onii-chan!
Mom, I'll hold the bags.
Himawari, we're gonna feast tonight.
So Boruto does know how to smile.
Yeah.
Hey!
So you did remember.
Happy... birthday... to you
You're a precious person...
...and it's your birthday.
Congratulations!
A Shadow Clone.
Boruto! Boruto!
Let me go, Mom!
Your father has to work hard for the people of the village.
It doesn't mean he's forgotten about the two of you!
Why?!
Why did my dad have to be the Hokage?!
He just sits at his desk all day and acts bossy!
Anyone can do it!
Being the Hokage is a tough job.
It's an indispensable duty, crucial for the survival of the village passed down throughout the generations.
And the children of the Hokage are expected to be grateful for being born into this stupid situation, huh?!
I heard our grandpa was also the Hokage.
And when Dad was a kid,
Grandpa Hokage wasn't even alive!
So I guess Dad's lucky, he never experienced the "Joy" of having a parent around.
I know it's sad not to have your father around on important days.
But it's different with you.
You have a father who's here.
It's not about me.
But, Himawari...
Forget it.
Boruto.
I messed up again.
Hey, Dad... What am I supposed to do?
Hey, what happened?!
Let me clean up.
You should go home and rest.
It's so dirty and tattered.
But it's different with you.
You have a father who's here.
This is so lame!
Could it be?
Is Dad home?
I'm sorry. I thought you were my dad.
You're Naruto's son?
What is your name?
Uzumaki Boruto.
Is that you, Sasuke-kun?
Is Naruto here?
I think he's still at the Hokage's office.
I see. Sorry I bothered you.
He's the one who's Dad's rival.
He's really cool!
What's this?
A gift from Kaguya palace.
Sasuke!
I'm getting a grim feeling about this.
I can't even read it with my Rinnegan.
There is also a guy who worries me.
He didn't follow me though.
Well, I guess I'm not going home.
Let's figure out what this scroll says.
By the way...
Why do you have it?
I picked it up on the way here.
Oh I see.
I also met your son.
He seems just like you when you were young.
Nah, he's nothing like how I used to be.
He's a lot more like you when you were young.
No. I take that back.
He's different from you as well.
The clothes he wears always look brand new.
I guess we're just behind the times.
You're wrong about that.
The soul of a shinobi remains the same.
That applies to your son too.
I doubt it.
By the way, I think I win this contest.
You're one to talk, loser.
He disappeared!
You're amazing!
You used to be my dad's rival, right?
I get it now. Brand new, huh?
Please make me your disciple!
There is someone I want to bring down, no matter what it takes!
Can you do the Rasengan?
If you can't, you can not be my disciple.
That's a piece of cake!
Naruto...
That contest earlier, isn't over and decided yet.
Konohamaru-Sensei!
What's all this, eh?
Please teach me your Rasengan!
I've got to get the hang of it right now!
So you want to learn it for the Chunin Exams and shock the Seventh Hokage.
Now you're talking like a shinobi!
Well, yeah.
Imagine, a teacher like me who gets to pass on this jutsu to the Hokage's son!
Fourth Hokage, Seventh Hokage!
I swear, I'll finish this very important task!
What happened to all your enthusiasm from earlier?
Come on, once more.
Look at me carefully and try to copy me, kore!
I know. I know!
But this doesn't seems to work at all, kore!
You don't have to copy the way I speak, kore!
No, I wasn't copying the way you speak, I was talking about "this"!
"This" thing in my hand. "This"!
Will you cut it out with the kore, kore already?!
What kore are we even talking about?!
And why does it have to be a water balloon?!
Isn't there a better way to do this?!
It took three years for the Fourth Hokage to master this jutsu
and another six months to perfect it.
Going by how difficult it is to master.
This is an A-Rank jutsu.
Damn! Still no good!
I did it!
Congratulations!
All right, to the next stage.
What? A rubber ball this time?!
You're kidding me, right? Kore?
I rock!
UCHIHA
That's awfully small!
I'd be hard-pressed to call that Rasengan.
But the basics are—
Damn!
You're always so strict, Dad.
Since you probably don't know Boruto very well.
Let me tell you, Boruto usually isn't like this.
It's a miracle he even managed this far.
You get it, don't you?
He jumped to the wrong conclusion.
I didn't say he failed.
I was going to accept him as my student.
Special Sale, all goods 30% - 40% Off
and double the points right now.
If you register on Hiddenleaf.net, you get three times the points!
Damn.
What's the matter?{Haru :- here comes our evil guy}
I see.
That's terrible.
But I've got just the thing for that.
It's cool, smart, and easy to use.
And you'll get exceptionally good results.
And this is....
what the shinobi of your generation looks like.
Don't you agree?
Now!{haru:- please die}
Let's choose the ultimate technique that's perfect for you.
When did I become so dirty?{haru :- like he wasn't a cheater from the start }
Yosh!
Rasengan!
Hey! Hey!
So what do you think?
That's all from only one day?
I'm not like my dad, when it comes to talent.{haru:- talent of a cheater}
It seems you're quite different from Naruto.{haru:- ikr}
I had hoped it wasn't the case.
So? What do you say? About making me your disciple?
Fine. You can be my disciple.
Tell me about my dad.
When he was a brat, all he did was go around saying he'd become the Hokage. He was quite the loser.
A loser?
And very stubborn.
No. Not that!
I want to know my dad's weaknesses, you know!
Weakness?
Listen...
He was full of weaknesses. He was a good for nothing.
But he puddled himself up with his own strength
and became the Hokage.
You do not need to understand who Naruto is now.
You need to know the Naruto who made it all the way here.
What's that supposed to mean?
It's finally time!
Good luck and do your best!
You're awfully lively this morning, Mom.
Does Dad coming home after such a long time makes you so happy?
What? Don't be silly!
Well, I can tell these things about you, Mom.
Anyways, I'm off!
Aren't you just as happy, Sarada.
You won the bet with my dad, Boruto.
W-Well, yeah.
So what will you do now that you're my dad's disciple?
I want to learn about my dad's weakness.
I don't mean to criticize you or anything.
But before you challenge the Seventh, we have to become chunin.
Do you understand?
That's why I want to train and learn from Uncle Sasuke
and show my dad my power at the Chunin Exams!
The power that's gonna topple him some day!
It's "Our" power!
Really, what are you thinking?
Isn't it obvious?
I'm thinking we're gonna come out on top at the Chunin Exams.
CHUNIN
I don't mean to criticize you or anything.
But sometimes, you're not that irritating.
Please don't forget about me, okay?
I didn't expect the chakra to be dispersed in this manner.
The Divine Tree has been cut down, and there is no sign of Kaguya.
It seems the creatures of this planet
have gained unnecessary knowledge.
We'll just have to retrieve it one by one.
Take this!
I'll give that back to you, doubled.
It seems that the Chakra-Turned-Monster had possessed a human body.
Is that all?
Well, I did use most of the pills while traveling through time-space.
Momoshiki-sama, there is an even greater reaction to the east.
I believe the massive accumulation of chakra that we seek is there.
How's that?
You're able to bend it a little now.
The next one is that.
How am I supposed to bend it that far?
Use your head a little, and don't expect an immediate answer.
I know.
You must be victorious Boruto-kun, no matter what happens!
When you're in a bind, Scientific Ninja Tools will come to your rescue.
No need to think so hard.
Is he even going to try?
Well, he's my son, so it can't be helped.
We will now begin the Chunin Selection Exam.
Everyone, this is the time to utilize everything you have learned so far!
Just watch, stupid old man.
I'm gonna make it to the end using my own strength.
All right, we'll begin the first round.
Each team of three will stand on the side they believe is the correct answer.
This is the question!
m 0 0 l 1834.75 0 l 1834.75 187.875 l 0 187.875
TRUE OR FALSE, THE PASSWORDS IN VOLUME 5 ARE "MOON IS DAY, MOUNTAIN IS RIVER, FLOWER IS NECTAR. True (O) or false ( X)?
In the fifth volume of the "Shinobi Strategist Detective Story",
The Three Passwords that appear are as follows:
Moon is day
Mountain is river
Flower is nectar
True or false?
I don't even know that story!
Sarada, you know this novel?
Sort of, but I only read up to volume 4.
I didn't even know that there was a fifth volume.
Then we might as well give up.
At least give an educated guess, Mitsuki.
Boruto, which do you think my dad would choose?
Probably false.
He's not the conventional type.
But hey, what's this all of a sudden?
I plan to become the Hokage by choosing a different way from my dad!
Then we should go for true, right?
Yeah! Let's go, guys!
All right, you've all decided on your answer?
The wrong answer is...
In other words, those who turn black will fail.
What do you mean by "turn black"?
You'll see.
The answer is...
We got it wrong!
Damn!
Ink! It's a pool of ink!
I get it.
Damn!
Is it over?
Over there is...
Is that the "false" hole?
This "true or false" choice probably has no meaning.
The quiz was a hoax from the beginning!
There was no fifth volume!
Those who fail will turn black.
Those were his words.
So long as you do not turn black, you're safe.
It's exactly the kind of awkward and oblivious test my dad would make.
Precisely!
After seeing the pool of ink and realizing your mistake,
if you gave up and let yourself plunge into black ink.
You do not deserve to be a chunin.
The main objective of the first round was to see
the second answer you were forced to make instantly after.
And when driven into a difficult situation, whether you gave up or not.
Those who didn't fall into the ink are correct.
This marks the end of Round One of the Chunin Selection Exams!
The second round will start in three days!
All right!
We did it!
He managed to make it through somehow.
Boruto's team made it through the Round One.
O-Oh.
Are you still thinking about last time?
I'm one to talk, but...
perhaps you should give him a pep talk?
Congratulation on passing the first round. Good luck for the next round!! - Dad
An e-mail?
He didn't even send a Shadow Clone?
Stupid old man.
Everyone knows Shuriken Jutsu is Sarada's specialty!
I mean, she's your daughter.
She's an Uchiha, after all!
According to your reasoning, Boruto.
This jutsu should be your specialty as well.
I guess so.
This is Dad's specialty, right?
You can't make any more excuses.
Naruto can make over a thousand Shadow Clones.
I know that!
I'll blow them away during the Second Round!
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
I guess four is still my limit.
The Second Round consists of capturing a flag,
and guarding the flag in your territory while you encroach on enemy territory.
Namely, this is an offensive and defensive battle!
It's three against three so,
half the teams will be dropped after this round.
Most of the matches are over.
There's just one set of teams left.
I don't see the enemy, are we okay?
I'm guarding our flag. So relax and just attack!
We're counting on you, Boruto!
If we're going to show the Seventh Hokage how strong we are,
we have to make it through the second round.
I don't need you to remind me.
Your surprise attack didn't work.
Five against three.
You know who has the advantage, right?
Who has the advantage now?
Sarada! You go!
I'll join you later!
Boruto!
There's no water around, but he has a water style this powerful?!
He even knows...
...Lightning Style?
I'm fine now.
Sarada! Grab the flag!
That's what I'm doing.
We did it!
I guess we managed somehow.
Yeah, it was a piece of cake.
As expected, Boruto.{haru:- this movie should be named as " Boruto the cheater"}
You're a shinobi who's going to be the Hokage someday.
Excuse me! But that's gonna be me!
He's good.
I couldn't even see him weaving signs.
I guess that's to be expected of the Seventh's son.
Okay, that makes four teams.
This round has ended.
Thanks, Shino. You've been a great help.
He got past the second round as well.
It seems that he used it this time around.
I see. Did you get footage of it?
Yes.
Next is the third round.
Yeah.
Boruto!
This means... that... finally!
The Seventh will get to witness how strong we are!
Can't you be a little more happy about it?
I-I know!
I knew it.
Your eyes are bluer than the Seventh's.
Really?
They are! I'm sure of it!
You pay close attention, don't you?
Ask him to show you next time.
The Seventh is nice, so he won't say no.
Uh, yes?
I'm impressed.
About what?
Boruto and his team, of course.
They made it through the Second Round.
I see....
Well, see you later.
You came all the way here just to tell me that?
Well, it's important news.
By the way, Shikadai's team also made it too.
We just might see a battle between our sons!
Is it going to take more time to decipher?
Sorry, looks like they hit a snag.
I see. I'll come back later.
Sasuke.
I heard you're training him.
Did Boruto tell you that?
No. Konohamaru did.
I see.
Maybe you were right.
The soul of a shinobi remains the same.
I believe that to be true.
I'm home.
Welcome home!
Congratulations, Onii-chan!
I just passed the Second Round. It's no big deal, you know!
Are you hurt?
I'm fine.
But I'm tired, so I'm just going up to my room.
I don't need any dinner, either.
H-Hey! I said I don't need any dinner.
What is it?
D-Dad!
Well...
I heard you had passed the Second Round.
Y-Yeah.
I... umm...
What is it?
If it's nothing, can you go?
You...
You did well.
Well, see you later.
You came just to say that?
Well, it's important.
It's very very important.
Oh, one more thing.
W-What?
Don't lose to Shikadai!
Like I'd lose.
I'll be watching.
See you later.
If that's all he had to say, he could have just e-mailed.
Stupid old geezer.
It's time.
Yes.
I'm sure you are all well aware,
but the Third Round consists of individual battles.
You will probably face a teammate who knows your skills.
You will have three matches. The winners in block A, B and C will battle in a three-way final.
Are you ready?
Yes!
m 0 0 l 1834.75 0 l 1834.75 187.875 l 0 187.875
UZUMAKI BORUTO VS YURUI
The Third Round of the Chunin Selection Exams will now begin.
Challengers, step forward!
Uzumaki Boruto of the Hidden Leaf and...
Yurui of The Hidden Cloud.
First match, begin!
You're all going down in one fell swoop.
"One fell swoop"?
It means you're gonna lose.
Then just say it and don't beat around the bush!
Maybe I'll stop beating around the bush with this match.
Like I'll let you!
It exploded?
You did well.
I'm not gonna...
...lose here!
It won't reach all the way here.
How did he bend it that much?
Sorry, but it looks like I took you down in "one fell swoop."
Um... Was it Charai?
It's Yurui.
Winner is the Hidden Leaf's Uzumaki Boruto!
He won! He Won!
The kid's good.
All right, I'll win too!
Cha...!!
Aww yeah!
m 0 0 l 1834.75 0 l 1834.75 187.875 l 0 187.875
UZUMAKI BORUTO VS SHIKADAI NARA
Seventh match.
Begin!
Shadow Clones?
It would be great if you gave up soon.
I give up.
Doesn't this scene look familiar?
It'll be our turn to take the stage soon.
That young fool wields it nicely without exposing himself, doesn't he?
The winner is Uzumaki Boruto of the Hidden Leaf.
He moves onto the final!
Yes!
Amazing.
What's the matter, dear?
Hinata, use your Byakugan and check out Boruto's hand.
This is what we deciphered from the scrolls.
My suspicions were right on the mark.
Is there something wrong?
We have to let Naruto know immediately.
Unfortunately, we'll need to postpone the exams.
Well...?
It's some kind of ninja tool.
It seems he had it attached to his arm.
Is it...?
What's with the Hokage?
He's so proud of his son,
he couldn't stop himself from going out there.
That's a doting parent for you.
Dad, did you see that?
Next up is the final round!
What's this about?
This is...
This is prohibited in the exams.
Using a ninja tool instead of your own chakra
defeats the purpose of the Chunin Exams which is to nurture new shinobi.
Lee, Uzumaki Boruto is disqualified.
Please change the winner to Shikadai Nara.
He's been exposed.
We have no choice but to act now.
Uzumaki Boruto has been disqualified for using an illegal ninja tool!
He didn't fool around, did he?
Therefore, the winner is Shikadai Nara from the Hidden Leaf.
So this is what it's like to have an idiot son who drags the Hokage's name through the mud.
You're kidding?
Since when did he have it?
Boruto...
You're disqualified for not following the rules.
What happened to Onii-chan?
Did he do something wrong?
Boruto...
Follow me.
We are in the middle of the exam.
We'll talk later.
We'll talk later?
Do you even have the time for that, Dad?
If you had taught me all this before,
I...
I would've never end up in a situation like this!
He's right, you know.
Boruto-kun couldn't win, and we were very disappointed, Lord Seventh.
To be honest, I wanted to make this announcement after he won.
You guys!
Everyone, hear this!
Boruto-kun used a Scientific Ninja Tool.
It is banned in here.
But, there is no denying that this Scientific Ninja Tool
made it possible for him to reach this point!
Katasuke!
That's why! The Five Kage and people from all the villages,
this was the perfect venue to demonstrate this amazing Scientific Ninja Tool and—
Get behind me, quick!
Hey, hey! What's with you guys?!
Don't approach them!
This arena is where I show off my—
Our top priority is to prevent any casualties.
I can see the fox with my Byakugan.
It's dangerous here, go to where the others are—!
This child is the last one remaining.
Take care of her.
I'm going to check over there.
Sarada!
Dad?!
You don't seem to be hurt.
This is payback for the last time!
That was close!
Boruto! Are you all right?
Yeah, what about you?
How trivial.
It was sucked in?!
Kinshiki.
Yes!
We can't use our powers here.
We'll end up dragging everyone into this.
It seems like I'm their target.
I'll lure them.
Who are you?!
My name is Kinshiki Otsutsuki,
This is Momoshiki Otsutsuki-sama.
What do you want from me?!
We will turn the scattered chakra into one fruit.
And finish what Kaguya failed to do on this seedbed.
According to the scroll.
It was recorded that these guys would come to steal the fruit of chakra.
That's why Kaguya was amassing an army of White Zetsu.
First Kaguya, and now this.
What do they plan to do with the fruit?
They plan on making pills.
Pills?
Medicine.
Precisely. As long as we have this,
we are eternally young, immortal, and invincible.
You poor, inconvenient humans.
Unless you train and persevere senselessly, you get nowhere.
Now watch me!
With this pill, instantly, with no effort, and so easily...
I acquire true power.
Quit shitting around!
That's not true power!
Vulgar creatures like you wouldn't understand.
What will you do?
I don't want to soil my garments, but I shall do it anyway.
I'll have to rearrange the seedbed, and make it beautiful anyway.
There's also the jutsu I acquired earlier.
No...
It's meaningless.
What is this?
I didn't know Dad had a power like this.
Take this!
And this!
If the real you goes down, it's all over!
Thanks, Sasuke.
Naruto-kun.
It'll all be over after this.
But you must not die, Fox.
Sasuke.
Take care of both of them.
Got it.
Uncle!
Dad!
Let's do this, Kurama!
You'd better not be out of shape!
Don't be stupid!
I'm ready to go anytime!
Roger that!
Listen...
He was full of weaknesses. He was a good-for-nothing.
But he pulled himself up with his own strength
and became the Hokage.
You don't need to understand who Naruto is now.
You need to know the Naruto who made it all the way here.
Dad!
You're awake.
Is this the hospital?
Everyone's been transported here.
Lord Seventh protected us all.
I see.
So everyone's safe?
Mama!
Himawari?!
Hinata!
It's me. Can you hear me?
Mama!
It's all right. She'll be fine.
What happened, Mom?!
She charged right after him.
Why'd she do something crazy like that?!
She tried to bring Naruto back.
Dad...
Boruto...
When Dad was a child,
Grandpa Hokage wasn't even alive!
So I guess Dad's lucky, he never experienced the "Joy" of having a parent around.
Why does my dad have to be the Hokage?!
He just sits at his desk all day and acts bossy!
Anyone can do that!
I am...
so lame.
You've got that right.
At the exams, everyone scorned you.
You were stripped of your headband,
and you can't even call yourself a shinobi now.
On top of that, you made your little sister cry,
your mother's been hurt, and your father is gone.
If it weren't for your sister who adores you
and your mother who worries so much about you,
you'd be in the same situation, Naruto used to be in the past.
So, what are you gonna do?
My dad...
How did my dad do it?
Seems like you're not just interested in his weakness anymore.
Then, ask Naruto yourself.
I'm going to rescue him.
I can sense his chakra.
In other words, he's not dead yet.
Uncle Sasuke, why do you bother with me?
You're actually a very powerful shinobi.
I lost to him.
But you can become someone who surpasses him.
How can you tell that?
You're his son,
and you're my number one student, right?
And besides,
you're a bigger loser than Naruto ever was.
A loser.
Does that mean?
I mean, you hate to lose.
Aren't you forgetting about us?
We can't ignore the Hokage
and tarnish the reputation of the Five Kage.
Let's do it!
Wow...
The Five Kage.
It's feels just like the old days with Naruto.
I feel my power surging.
No, there is still something missing.
This is...?!
With this Rinnegan,
the number of shinobi I can send after them is limited.
Considering our present battle strength,
this is the best we can do.
Take care of Naruto.
Boruto!
Mom!
Boruto...
I'm gonna go.
You're finally carrying yourself like a shinobi.
Let's go!
Sarada, Mitsuki, take care of everyone!
Boruto...Take care of your dad.
It's them...
This is taking too long.
Sorry about that...
You see we ninja
don't like to make things easy.
Let's do this!
Don't think you can get away from us.
Vulgar creatures!
Sasuke.
And you too? Why are you wearing that?
Things happened,
and well, he's become a shinobi.
I feel like I'm looking at my own Shadow Clone.
Do I look a little cool at least?
More than before.
So you were keeping an eye on me a little.
I'm sorry... For everything up until now.
From now on...
It's fine the way it was.
But, when you can manage to be around, instead of lecturing me.
I want you to tell me stories about your past.
Sure...
You're cornered.
Aren't you talking about yourself?
You impudent!
Honenuki!
Kurotsuchi!
Ash Stone Sealing Jutsu!
We'll hold him here!
Sorry we're late!
Naruto!
Don't use ninjutsu on them!
You can absorb jutsu, and then release it, right?
It's the same setup as those toys from the Scientific Ninja Tool Team.
Then we'll go with taijutsu.
That's a simple decision.
Momoshiki-sama...
Now, Momoshiki-sama...
It seems the time has come to consume my chakra.
Just as in the past, when my guardians entrusted me with their power.
Do not waver.
That goes without saying!
It's like I'm looking at the old me.{sasuke looks soo sexy}
No kidding.
Let's teach him a lesson.
Sasuke!
Yeah!{here comes my fav. fight. >.<}
Amazing!{nailed it}
Make sure you get the power of this Scientific Ninja Tool on camera!
Right.
Take this!
This is payback for what you did to me earlier!
There they go again, interfering.
Them again!
You have my thanks, fools!
My chakra.
This is a fine ability.
Now, I'll be careful with you.
I won't kill the fox.
But the rest are nuisances.
Now is the time!
Remember what I said. Now release your Rasengan!
Can I really—?
Trust your master.
That's why I brought you here with me.
Rasengan?!
Go!!
What?!
What just happened?
What is the meaning of this?
When did you learn the Rasengan?!
Do you know how hard it is to perfect?
But this Rasengan adds a sudden Change in Chakra Nature,
then disappears.
I see!
Boruto, do it again.
But my Rasengan's—
Just do as Sasuke says.
O-Okay!
How dare you?! You foiled my garment twice.
Just how much has he endured to reach this point?
I don't feel like losing!
I can make as much as I want.
We only have one chance, you understand?
Here we go!
Roger that!
There is no second chance.
The rest depends on you.
Boruto!
No way!
Go... Boruto.
Rasengan!
You're a mess.
So are you.
Yeah. I can't even stand.
I won this contest.
A shinobi's soul remains the same...
even for your brat.
Boruto...
You're right.
The situation is different from the time when my father was the Fourth Hokage.
I am the Hokage now and I'm still here.
And I'm here to take care of you...
until you grow up.
It's okay, Mom. Leave it as it is.
My clothes look cool like that.
Mom, my jacket.
I have to go now.
Aren't you gonna be late, Daddy?
Oh, yeah.
Dad, your lunch!
Crap, I almost forgot it.
Thank you, Himawari.
Boruto also forgot it.
I'm leaving!
I'm going to leave now!
Have a good day.
Boruto, are you doing a mission today?
Yeah. You work hard too, Dad!
Got it!
What's important is to train hard and learn, you know?
Even though you're still a genin
you fought alongside the Five Kage and saved us from danger.
What's the most important thing for a shinobi?
Teamwork and perseverance!
Oh, how nice!
My dad told me,
it's not about how you think here but what you know and feel here.
I see.
Finally, is there something you want to say for the Chunin Selection Exams?
This time I will succeed, you know!
The event is hosted directly.
A Shadow Clone?
I hope you're the original.
Of course!
Since then, you've been busy with television interviews.
Even though you cheated.
How many times should I apologize for it?
Just forgive me already!
A panda escaped from the zoo!
No, it's a bear!
Anyway, it's directed towards you.
Understood!
Not again?!
I'll be the decoy, so you guys capture it.
Understood!
You two, do it right this time.
Boruto, you're son of the Seventh Hokage
and grandson of the Fourth Hokage—
Hey, Boruto.
Deep down inside, don't you want to become the Hokage too?
Me, the Hokage?
I don't want to!
But, when you become the Hokage,
I'll be your assistant.
I'll guard you.
For me, the Hokage is just a road.
Just because my grandpa and my dad were Hokage,
doesn't mean I have to walk on the same road.
Sarada...
What I want is...
to become a shinobi like your dad.
I will follow my own ninja way!
Okay, this is it.
Let's do it, Boruto! Mitsuki!
All right!
Itsudatte ima datte bokura wa chanto mi o musunde
Always, even now, we're planting the seeds
ima datte tobitatteyuku
Even now, we're taking flight.
kyou mo hi ga noboru to ippo fumidasu
Today, when the sun rises, I take another step forward
kinou no jibun towa chigau hazu nanoni na
Though I thought I'd managed to change since yesterday
doushite kidzuite kurenain darou?
I wonder why you don't seem to notice
tsunotta fuman ga kokoro no naka de uzuku
The anxiety building in my heart begins to ache
mita koto nai mono bakari demo
Even if I only look at things I've never seen before,
kiita koto nai mono bakari demo
Even if I only hear things I've never heard before,
kono aoi me ni usturu nowa
What reflects in these blue eyes is
itsudatte ima datte tooku mukou hashiru kage
always, even now, a shadow running in the distance
boku datte tada matteiru wake janai kara
But it's not like I'll just be waiting around forever
itsudatte ima datte bokura wa chanto mi o musunde
Always, even now, we're planting the seeds
ima datte tobitatteyuku
Even now, we're taking flight
mitomeraretai to jidanda fundetanda
I've been stamping the ground, demanding you acknowledge me
kotoba ni dekinai kuyashisa ga soko ni aru
Within this lies a vexation I can't put into words.
tsuyokunaritai to negaeba negau hodo
The more I wish that I could be stronger,
karamarwari shiteshimau
The more I'm just spinning my wheels
tsuyogatte tsuyogatte, kowai mono shirazu datte
Playing tough playing tough not afraid of a thing,
mata waratte gomakashite, honne wa ienai mama
But just laughing it off keeps me from finally telling you how I feel
iya ni natte iradatte, umaku dekinai jibun ga ite
Sick of myself and pissed off, there's a part of me that just can't get it right
dame datte tachidomatteshimau
Thinking it's impossible, I end up at a standstill
dokyou mo nai kuseni makezugirai de, mata namida koboshite
Though I don't even have the guts, I'm still a sore loser again, my tears fall
kono hatenai fuan toka kono uzumaki no naka
As feelings like my unending anxiety form a whirlpool
itsunomanika hi ga kuretetta
By the time I realized, the sun was already setting
ame datte kaze datte ukenagara susundeiku
Assailed by the rain, assailed by the wind, I push onward
boku date yareru tte tobikondeyuke
I'm diving in, believing I can do it too
itsudatte ima datte bokura wa chanto mi o musunde
Always, even now, we're planting the seeds
ima datte tobitatta sugata ga mieru kana
Even now, can you still see our flying forms
yogoretatte yaburetatte hoshigatta mono datta
Even if we ended up filthy and torn, it was something we desired
ima wa koko ni aru nosa
It's right here with us now.
As I said, this is a bear!
Be quiet! It's a panda!
It's a bear! No, a panda!
Bear!
You've gotten pretty close to each other.
Panda!
Bear!
It would be nice if you could show my parents some respect as well.
Oh yeah, I forgot to ask.
Who are your parents?
Huh? Didn't I tell you?
He's called Orochimaru.
Who?
You mean, you're the son of Orochimaru?
So, is he your father? or your mother?
Well, it doesn't really matter.
So who is this Orochimaru?
And what do you mean by "it doesn't really matter"?!
