It seems that I've found you at last.

It took me a while, Lord Tonari Otsutsuki.

So you finally arrived, celestial being.

Come now, why stand on formality? We are from the same clan.

I thought the Otsutsuki clan's fate was going to reach an end with me.

Quite the contrary. The main family of the Otsutsuki clan doesn't feel that

Main family?

If they really exist, Why did they forsake us for a thousand years?

We saw everything.

The incident involving the woman with the Byakugan was quite unfortunate.

You endured such humiliation, and yet you still continue to risk your life for

that planet. I really do have to hand it to you.

However, this means that you're betraying the clan.

You may believe that you made the very first move because of what you did to

that woman's son.

But that was hasty.

You act like you know everything.

But you never came until today. What would you know about that planet?

You're right. We don't know.

And that is exactly the reason why we were dispatched here.

We were? You mean... Well, let's leave it at that.

Now, about the invite.

I'm up for it.

But I'm free.

I don't have the authorization to actually kill a member of the clan.

So, don't worry. Just enjoy your stay at the Palace of the Dragon King for the

next 10 ,000 years.

Well, now then. I hope I get to reel in a big catch.

No!

Stop!

Boruto isn't strong enough just yet.

Thank you.

ninja war do you have any thoughts that you'd like to share yeah most hey look

lord hokage i don't think there are a lot of ninja now what's he doing but

anyway what's most important is to communicate so people know everything

happens you know yes you're right as seventh hokage naruto uzumaki just said

current peace was reached after many wars But we must never forget that this

piece was made possible by the sacrifice of many, many shinobi. So to preserve

this hard -won piece, we must make sure to teach this history to the youth, to

the next generation.

Yeah, we got all of that already.

I've heard it so often that it's become a real drag.

I know, it's even in our textbooks.

Now, we turn our attention to the tuning exam, which the five villages have

agreed to sponsor jointly for the first time.

So tell me, do you have any advice to give to all the Genin who are going to

participating this year?

Hmm. Well, uh, remember these three things.

Three things?

Teamwork and perseverance and, uh, that's it. Good luck to you all.

Uh, that was only two things.

Anyway, thanks so much for those inspiring words.

And a big thanks to all of you out there for joining us live for our discussion

today. And thanks again for coming on the show, Lord Hokage.

Sure thing.

Well,

it seems that Lord Hokage is just as busy as ever.

I can't believe he had a Shadow Clone do the interview.

Man, Lord Hokage is just so amazing.

At this rate, I won't be able to change a thing.

For practically forever, I never even thought about becoming a ninja.

But here I am, about to become a Chunin. Look, don't get ahead of yourself.

You can celebrate after you actually pass.

Oh, yeah. We still have the exams to get through.

Hey, Boruto, don't do anything stupid until we get our recommendation letters,

all right?

No pranks for the time being, huh?

Yeah, about all that, honestly, I couldn't care less about any of it. Huh?

Becoming Chunin or Jonin?

It's kind of like having a license, right?

Why should we get so hung up on rules that people from a long time ago came up

with? I mean, we ought to just go for it and become even greater ninja.

Huh? What do you mean, even greater?

Well, you know, kind of like Sasuke.

Huh?

Are you talking about Sarada's dad?

He doesn't take orders from anyone.

He battles powerful enemies on his own terms.

Now I know they're a ninja like that. I see. He's real mysterious, too.

There's a lot that's cool about him.

It's way cooler than going on TV and rambling on.

Look, Boruto.

Why do you gotta go making things complicated now?

Oh, come on. I'm not at all. I got into the academy and decided to become a

ninja with all you guys, didn't I?

That's totally for real. You can't deny that.

It's just that I've been doing a little thinking lately about some other ways

that I can become even cooler. I just want to do things my own way, that's

You do know the guys who want to show off are the only ones who say things

that, don't you? No, that isn't it.

Oh, then what is it? Like I said, I want to do things my way.

Well, later.

God damn it.

Sometimes he's such a drag.

Well? Here are the application forms for the upcoming tuning exams.

So this means that you're officially recommending us, right?

Well, yeah.

All of your hard work has already been acknowledged, which means I can breathe

little easier.

Well, there were some times when things got chaotic.

Boy, I'll say. They sure do work us getting to the bone. Oh, come on. If you

don't want it, I can take the recommendation back. No, I never said we

want to take the exams.

Right, Cho -Cho?

Huh? Did you just say you didn't want to chew on eggs and ham?

No, we're talking about taking the tuning exams.

Go get your ears checked.

Next time we go to barbecue, you'll pick up the check?

You're not even listening.

The thing about pawns, anything is possible.

So it's to be or not to be, huh?

In the end, it's all up to you.

Huh?

Oh, it's nothing.

Anyway, let's get this over with and become tuning.

Taking exams over and over again is such a drag.

Yeah, I agree.

I mean, having to take exams all of the time is only going to cut into the prime

of my youth.

This is the prime?

How sad.

Huh? What did you just say to me? You know what? Maybe you need to go and get

your eyes checked.

I'm sorry.

You've been so busy sending out clones for this Zetsu thing.

I'm okay. Don't worry about it.

The tuning exams are coming up soon. I'll manage somehow.

Oh, Katosuke, what do you need?

Well, you see, as the head of the scientific ninja tool team, I have a

to make, Lord Seventh. Oh, what is it? For the upcoming tuning exams, we'd like

your authorization to use the ninja tool our team made.

Oh, that's right. I read the report a while ago. It seems that they've made

considerable progress lately.

We have.

And they're now battle ready.

That was a wind style jutsu. You know, that's actually pretty interesting.

Isn't it? You just have to change the cartridge and you can use any jutsu you

want. Oh, I see.

Then the Genin won't have to go through such harsh training, and they'd have

more ninjutsu to use.

What do you think? Their performances would be more elaborate as well.

Thanks for showing us, Katasuke.

But I can't approve it.

The Chunin exams are not a performance.

Their purpose is to nurture Shinobi.

All the more reason to use this scientific ninja tool, then. It was

the modern Shinobi.

Taking the easy way out on a test to measure their skills will only end up

shortchanging them. Yeah, that's true. I get it. But there's also a school of

thought that says masterfully using copied jutsu, just like the six tokage,

the mark of an outstanding ninja too.

Yes, you're right. If that power comes from inside.

But the whole purpose of the tuning exams is to measure the strength that

individual genin's managed to cultivate.

Oh, I see.

Excuse me.

Do you think I was too rude to him?

Don't worry about that.

You're absolutely right about this one.

Okay.

When will Lord Seventh understand?

Will he ever get it?

Technology must be used to make things efficient.

What's wrong with that?

The young lord understands it much more clearly.

No, I mustn't. No, I should know better.

I'm a scientist. I have to remain optimistic.

Oh, that's right.

The young lord asked me for some data for that game.

Oh, yeah!

I stopped that boss's attack with one shot!

What? How?

Your character got super strong all of a sudden.

I'm ready now, Boruto.

I'm just waiting on you.

Okay, sorry.

Hold on. How'd your stats get so high?

You used something, didn't you, Boruto?

Yeah, so what if I did?

If I use it, it's really easy to defeat the boss.

Here, I can give you my data, too.

Seriously, Boruto?

This is a cheat, although your level is impressive.

All right, I think I'm done.

This game is really only fun because I have to sneak away from Mom to play it.

Oh, come on, Shikidai, don't be so boring. Isn't it a real drag?

I mean, why play if it's not to win?

So you're an expert at video games too, huh? I brought an application for you.

Here.

Look, what do you want, Mitsuki?

I already told you I'm not interested in doing that. Oh?

Are you serious? Yes, I understand that. Damn it. What is going on with you,

Boruto?

If that's truly the way you feel, then fine. I don't really care either way.

But are you sure?

Of course it's not okay!

I was worried, so I came down here, and this is what you have to say?

Meetski's being totally useless, too.

My dream's to become Hokage.

Are you really telling me that you're going to destroy my dream?

Just give me a break.

I can't just keep wasting all of my time being stuck as a genin, you know.

I've got to pass the exams, and soon.

You make it sound like it'll be easy. Yeah, right?

So what's it gonna be? Are you gonna help me or get in my way? Look, I'm not

gonna get in your way. You can go ahead and do whatever you want to do.

What? Were you even listening to the teachers earlier?

You've got to have a full three -man team to be allowed to enter the tuning

exam. I'm sure you can find someone else.

But it's too late now. There's no way I could find someone that easily.

She's got a good point.

It's not as if our teamwork just came together overnight or something like

That's true.

Yeah, so what? I don't care.

You have been acting so weird lately.

Why are you being so stubborn? Whatever.

Hey, Boruto.

Know what? I think what you want is for your father to praise you, right? Oh!

And just what would you know about me anyway?

I know quite a lot, because you are the sun in my sky.

So that's it, huh, Boruto?

You could be such a brat sometimes.

I can hear you. Listen to me, Boruto.

The way you're acting is really uncool.

Is this really the person you want to be?

Come on, Boruto.

In the tuning exams, we can show Lord Sevens what we've got. So what do you

What's that?

This is our big chance. Do this, and you'll be able to show your dad and

everybody else out there in the audience just how amazing you are. And I'll be

able to pass the exam.

I will, too.

Guess there's no choice.

Okay already.

Guess you guys just can't do anything without me. Three -man team, whatever.

Just leave it to me.

So easy.

You really know how to manipulate him. I can hear you.

A man doesn't go back on his word, right?

Well, yeah.

Look, I really couldn't care less about being a chunin, but I'll just ace the

exam, wow everyone, and make them all see that Boruto Uzumaki has finally

arrived. Big brother!

But before all of that, there's something I have to go take care of.

I gotta check on an important promise.

We're back!

Big Brother is home!

Hi. Welcome home.

Daddy!

Hey! We're back! We're back!

We're back! You actually made it.

You remembered, huh?

Your promise.

You actually kept it.

Well, uh, yeah.

Then we're even.

The thing is, I can put up with it.

Because I'm a man.

But still, if you didn't follow through on your promise and made Himawari cry, I

would have let you have it.

We're even now. I'll forgive you today.

Well, thanks for that.

It's fine. As long as you understand.

Okay.

All right.

Everything's in place.

Okay. And here comes your cake.

Whoa. It's huge.

Himawari's birthday party is just about to get started for real now.

A

shadow.

Big brother, it's all right.

That damn... It's Himawari's birthday.

What the hell does he think this is?

Boruto! Boruto! Let me go, Mom!

I've had enough of this.

I'm gonna go beat that loser up for what he just did. Boruto, your father has to

work very hard for the people of the village. And what about us, huh? Aren't

part of the village, too?

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

Look, I understand.

But it doesn't mean he's forgotten about you, too. I've heard that lame excuse

so many times, I've lost count.

Enough already.

I'm just so sick and tired of it.

Boruto.

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.

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

But still, it's different with you.

You still have a father who's actually here.

Porto.

Mommy.

Oh, Himawari.

I'm so sorry.

It's so dirty.

And it's torn to shreds.

But still, it's different with you.

You still have a father who's actually here.

This is so uncool!

Dad is.

And so am I.

Oh, now you show up, you stupid old man!

I thought you were my dad.

So you're Naruto's son.

Your name?

It's Boruto.

Uzumaki. What's going on, Boruto?

Is that really Sasuke?

It is!

Is Naruto here?

I think he's still at the Hokage's office.

I see.

Sorry to intrude.

He's the one who is Dad's rival.

Sasuke Uchiha.

I just have to bring down my dad.

Why go so far to rebel against your father?

He broke a sacred promise between us.

And besides, he keeps treating me like a kid.

Tell me this. Can you perform the Rasengan?

Next time on Boruto Naruto Next Generation.

Sasuke and Boruto.

That'll be a piece of cake, you know? I'll go and master it right away.
