Where am I?

Naruto!

Sarada? You're awake!

Wait,

why isn't Dad attacking?

Naruto could easily obliterate that thing if he wanted to, but it would take

everything around him in the process.

To protect everyone.

Where's my dad?

Lord Seventh protected all of us.

He... Mommy!

Himawari.

Hang in there, Hinata.

It's me. Can you hear me?

Mom!

Big brother!

Are you okay, Boruto?

I'm totally fine.

What happened to Mom?

She'll be fine.

It's okay.

What happened, Mom?

How'd you get hurt?

She charged right in after him.

Why? That's crazy.

Your dad had collapsed, and they were going to take him away, so he tried to

Naruto back.

So what?

Dad. To protect everybody else in the village, he took the brunt of the

attack.

You remember what Naruto always said, right?

He believed that it was his duty to protect everyone in the village, no

what.

Thank you for

watching!

Everyone else.

Me too.

They're in critical condition.

In the midst of all that chaos, I guess they stole his chakra.

Shizune and her team are treating him.

They haven't left his side.

And everybody else is just fine.

All thanks to Lord Seventh.

Boruto. Boruto.

Oh, thank goodness. You're actually okay.

We were all so worried.

Oh, thanks.

I'm totally fine.

I think Lord Hokage is too.

Yeah.

What happened to everyone? They ended up getting caught in that last explosion.

Luckily, their injuries aren't very serious.

And that's all thanks to Lord Hokage.

It's a miracle things weren't any worse.

Hey, Boruto!

There aren't enough hospital rooms, so we're gonna need to...

You think it's okay to let him go off alone?

Well, I wonder what's going to happen now.

What do you mean?

Back when Boruto defeated you in your match, frankly, I was amazed.

But who knew he was using a forbidden scientific ninja tool?

So heavy.

Anyway, they totally messed up our tuning exams.

They'll probably have to do it over, huh?

Yeah, who knows?

Although, if I get to battle that super handsome guy again, I guess it wouldn't

be all that bad.

Is that really all you can think about right now?

It's pretty shallow, you know.

You mean what happened to Lord Hokage?

I guess that I just have faith that someone like Lord Hokage wouldn't ever

guys like that beat him.

Am I right, chicken eye?

Uh -huh. Yeah, you're right.

I'm amazed that you endured this long.

After this, it's over.

Kurama, you'd better not be out of shape now.

Don't be foolish.

I'm always ready to go.

Right.

Damn it.

Damn.

Like I told you.

I'm going to show everyone the results of my training.

You just watch.

I'll definitely show you what I can do in the second round. No matter what, I'm

going to make sure you acknowledge me.

Do not lose to Shikidai.

Like I'd lose.

I'll be watching.

Dad,

did you see me?

I actually won!

Well, explain yourself.

Go on.

I just wanted Dad to acknowledge me and to treat me like I'd come into my own.

But in the end, it turned out to be the exact opposite.

Are you done?

I couldn't do a thing.

Not a single thing.

Dammit!

You're no longer a ninja either.

He's completely right, you know?

Don't worry Naruto is okay

Leave the rest to me. I'll handle it

Maybe

dad is

That's Grandpa's photograph.

It's up on the wall here.

Just let me go, Mom!

I'm gonna go over there and be - Your father has to work very hard for the

people of the village. And what about us, huh? Aren't we part of the village,

too?

When you're Hokage, it's okay to just ignore your family?

Look, I understand, but it doesn't mean that your father's forgotten about you,

too. I've heard that lame excuse so many times that I've lost count.

Enough already.

I'm just so sick and tired of it.

Boruto.

Anne, when Dad was a kid, Grandpa Hokage wasn't even alive.

So I guess dad's just lucky that he never had to experience the joy of

parent around.

It's no wonder he doesn't care.

Why does my dad have to be the Hokage?

He just sits there at his desk all day acting bossy.

Literally anybody at all could do that job.

I know.

But it's really hard not having your father around on important days.

Still, it's different with you.

You still have a father who's actually here.

You remember what Naruto always said, right?

He believed that it was his duty to protect everyone in the village, no

what.

I just... I just didn't really get it till now.

It's me.

I'm uncool. You got that right.

What? Sasuke?

At the exams, everyone scorned you.

You were stripped of your headband and can't even call yourself a shinobi right

now.

On top of that, your father's gone.

Frankly, without the sister who adores you and the mother who worries so much

about you, you'd be just like how Naruto used to be back then.

What you need to know now isn't the current Naruto, but the Naruto who made

this far.

So my dad... Can you tell me what he would have done?

I guess that means it's not just his weaknesses you're interested in now.

Well then, you should just ask him yourself.

We're saving him.

My dad? The Lord?

I'm able to sense his chakra.

I can't tell if he's hurt or not, but at the very least, he's still alive.

If you're gonna go rescue the Hokage, I hope you'll let all

of us pitch in and help, too.

After all, the Otsutsuki clan can't be ignored.

Our sworn friend's been kidnapped, so standing around would disgrace the five

Kage's name. Let's do it. Let's make those guys regret that they ever made us

their enemy.

Wow.

What exactly was written in the scroll?

It contained a warning that there would be pursuers coming to this land, because

Kaguya stopped supplying chakra to the Otsutsuki clan.

She was making preparations to attack them once they arrived. That's the gist.

I see.

So what they're after is a massive amount of chakra, then. So that's why

tails was targeted.

Which means the reason the Hokage was taken was to extract the nine tails from

him. That seems pretty clear to me.

But for them to time their attack right when they did... The tuning exams are

crucial, and those two ruined them.

I was attacked by the one that plucked away chakra.

That is a dangerous power, and so I won't let you use it.

He's able to steal chakra and jutsu with that fishhook of his.

If our enemy is the Otsutsuki clan... Then business as usual isn't going to

work. Yes, we have to be prepared for the worst.

We must not let the divine tree which steals chakra from people regenerate

again.

The one called Kinshiki has the ability to make weapons from stolen chakra.

He attacks with ferocious power and speed.

The other one is called Momoshiki.

Fire style bullet, homerun!

He absorbs his foe's jutsu with the Rinnegan in his palm, and he returns it

an even greater intensity.

Using jutsu against Momoshiki is just going to rebound back against you.

Now that's troublesome.

We'd better brace ourselves.

This one's gonna be really tough.

Where is Naruto now?

The scroll revealed the location where those two can be found.

Naruto is probably there with them. I've already analyzed it with my Rinnegan.

Then I guess we'd better get going.

What are you waiting for, Boruto?

You actually intend on bringing him along?

Hey, come on. You're joking, right? I agree.

That would be far too dangerous.

Absolutely. There's no doubt in my mind that he should stay home and... I'm not

joking.

Remember, he is Naruto's son after all.

And my pupil.

There's a reason why I'm taking him.

Reason?

Maybe I should... I'm saying it's okay.

Listen carefully, Boruto.

Those guys are dangerous, but knowing that, there's still a reason why I'm

bringing you along.

Huh?

If enough of us should fall victim to them, or in the worst -case situation,

we're driven into a corner... If that time comes, you must take over.

That's why I'm bringing you.

But if someone as strong as you... You're actually quite a strong shinobi.

I may have lost to him. But if you put your mind to it, you might be able to

surpass him.

No, I can't.

Yes, you can.

I know because you're a worse loser than Naruto ever was.

What are you talking about?

A loser? I just mean you hate to lose.

I know that you can do it.

Trust your teacher.

Okay, then. I'll go.

No. Hold on a second. There's still something that's missing.

But isn't this... You know, I threw that headband away once.

But your father, he kept it safe for me.

We made a promise a while back.

That I'd hold on to it till the day we could have a real fight.

I'm giving it to you.

Okay, then.

If he has your authorization, I guess we have no choice but to take him along,

Sasuke. Mm -hmm.

All right, let's go.

Dad, please.

Me too.

Sarada, once I go, you'll be the only one here with the Sharingan.

Stay with Kakashi and Shikamaru. Protect the village.

I got it.

But be careful, okay, Dad? And you'd better come back soon.

That's the plan.

Leave everything here to us. Just focus on bringing Naruto back home safely.

Shikidai, listen.

I get it. You've got something that you need to do right now.

Explanations are a drag.

Just get it done, all right?

I'll listen to what you have to say when you get back.

Okay.

We'll use this to get to them.

I'm gonna go now.

You take care of your dad.

He's in your hands, Botadil. Good.

Now you're finally acting like a shinobi.

Let's go.

Sarada, Shikidai, take care of everyone.

Hang on, Dad.

I'm coming for you.

to make things easy, you know? You ninja are merely fodder.

Stop resisting.

Just let us extract your chakra.

There's no way that's gonna happen.

I plan on wrapping this up quickly so I can hurry back to him.

Next time on Boruto, Naruto Next Generation.

Rescuing Naruto.

After I defeat you, that is.
