No way. I can't lose here.

That's right. I gotta pass the tuning exams to keep walking down the path to

becoming the Hokage!

I won't let you!

Water style bullet!

Hoka!

What? Water style this powerful with no water nearby?

You're dying!

Even though it's lightning style?

Yeah,

we're okay.

Boruto, are you alright?

Are you seriously asking me that?

All right.

This means Lord Sevens will finally get to see how strong we are in round three.

Oh, yeah.

You're right.

He got through again.

It seems he used it this time around.

Oh, great. So he finally used it. Did you get any footage?

Yes. Hmm.

Minsky, what number is your match?

Fifth, I think. I couldn't even eat my breakfast this morning.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

But you're eating right now.

No way. I didn't even know I was eating.

All right. From this point on, everyone's an enemy.

Seems so.

I want to fight you guys, so don't lose too fast, okay? That goes without

saying.

I have a feeling that we aren't going to be defeating anyone all that easily.

Come on, let's show them the Leaf's true strength.

Because the winner's going to be me.

Yeah,

you know it.

Thank you.

consists of individual matches.

They will be held tournament style.

We purposely did not pit teammates against one another in the first

But if you win, you may end up facing each other later.

Please make sure you verify what number your match is.

There will be three divisions of matches.

And then, once those have been completed, the winners in blocks A, B,

battle in a three -way final.

Uzumaki of the Hidden Leaf versus Yurui of the Hidden Cloud.

The first match.

Begin.

You're about to get smoked wholesale, bozo.

Smoked wholesale?

It means you're gonna live.

Then just say that. You don't have to feed around the bush so much.

Maybe I'll stop beating around the bush right now.

Like I'd let you.

No way, those things explode?

Shinky, hey.

You wanted to face Boruto, right?

Looks like that might not happen.

I'm not interested in fighting anyone weak.

But be careful of the other two. They look tough, especially Mitsuki.

I don't need your advice.

When I get in there, I want to crush whoever I'm up against. Even that

guy. The caliber of students taking these exams is really quite sad.

Sneaking around playing hide -and -seek, huh?

Damn it.

That gum's getting in the way.

All right.

Guess it's time to grind this guy.

Oh, so that's the gum I've heard

about that uses chakra as a catalyst. Is that right?

Yeah, it is pretty interesting, isn't it?

No way. I'm not about to lose here.

Kid can't even aim right.

No way!

No way. Was that real?

Amazing. But how did he manage to bend it that much?

But it looks like you're the one who got smoked here.

Um, was it Shirai?

It's Yui.

The winner is the Hidden Leafs Boruto Uzumaki!

Nicely done. That kid's good.

Damn it, that makes me so angry.

Who would ever guess that both our teams would be eliminated before the finals?

But, of course, the secret weapon that we were hoping to enter in the

competition was already promoted to tuning before this joint exam even

I suppose it just can't be helped.

You think they would have won if they came? Such doting parents are annoying,

Mizukage. Yes, well, I shall take that to heart.

Not bad.

So, when exactly did you practice that little move?

Oh, you know, it was a piece of cake.

This brings back memories of our tuning exams, doesn't it? You know, come to

think of it, that was the first time we met you, Tamari.

Oh, yeah, that's right. You had such a bad attitude then.

I don't recall.

Actually, you still kind of have a bad attitude.

Oh, Shikidai's opponent is from the Hidden Sand?

That's where you were born, right, Tamari?

You must have mixed feelings.

Listen up, Shikidai! If you lose, then it's game over!

Give it all you've got!

All right, Shikidai, come on. Don't turn this into a bad match.

Well, anyway, go easy on me, would you?

The second match!

Shikidai Nara of the Hidden Leaf versus Yodo of the Hidden Sand!

And begin!

Stand ready.

Don't act like I'm ranked lower than you.

Damn it. What a bad attitude.

Fine, it's a drag, but I'll attack first.

I won't let you escape.

Come on, Tickadai. What are you doing out there?

We're always the ones who create an opening for him with a diversion.

At least after this, he'll appreciate what we do.

Yeah, you're right. See what happens when you slack off in Taijutsu practice.

Still, that girl has seriously sharp eyes, huh?

To be able to dodge an attack like that so easily?

Yeah, there's definitely something about her.

Oh, like what?

Just watch.

I think Shikidai's about to test something out.

Damn it. Acting so calm and cool.

All right.

Even that failed?

Get it together, Shikidai, and get your aim right!

So can this Yoda girl read shadows or something? No, Shikidai.

Don't waste your chakra like that.

She's moving around so much.

Are you done yet?

All right, then. I guess now it's my turn.

This is where things get serious.

Let's do this.

What was that just now?

Was it Wednesday or... Again!

Those are high frequencies, huh?

If they hit me again, I'm done for.

But no matter what, I can't afford to lose this early in the game.

Her reaction was slightly delayed just now.

But why?

Chewed up gum.

How gross.

Damn it.

That guy.

I get it.

It's sound, isn't it?

At first, I thought that you had exceptionally sharp eyes.

But even in that smoke bomb, and with that feint, you countered easily.

Which means you weren't actually relying on your eyes after all.

When you took your hood off, I noticed that your earbuds were gone, so it

crossed my mind.

But honestly, who would have ever imagined that you could hear the slight

of me merely shifting my weight as I turned to control my shadow?

That explains why your reaction was slightly delayed earlier.

It's because I stepped on that gum.

Your hearing is really frighteningly good.

I suppose that I should commend you for noticing that. But shifting your weight

is a subconscious habit. So realizing what's happening doesn't mean that you

actually control it.

You use earbuds to keep your oversensitive ears in check, don't you?

You nervous?

Huh? Your heart, it started beating faster.

Your breathing is shallow.

It's so painfully obvious.

Yeah, so what if all that's true?

No, don't let her manipulate you!

Too slow!

She could die.

Here, I thought that since you're Lady Tamari's son, you'd have at least a

little skill.

But I guess the Hidden Sand is the best to... Please stop like that.

You're disrespecting my mom, who's now a citizen of the Hidden Leaf Village.

You set the paper bombs off on purpose? There was no other way for me to muffle

the sound of my shoes when I shifted my weight.

So, shall we call this a match?

I give up.

Shikidai Nara!

Oh, yeah!

Oh, yeah!

Oh,

sorry about that. Pardon me.

She sure gave you a hard time. Yeah, so what?

Sarada. Go all out, all right?

Three seconds.

Watch me.

Huh?

I've heard that you've been dreaming about becoming the Hokage.

Let me give you a reality check.

Now, Sarada Uchiha from the Hidden Leaf versus Tarui from the Hidden Cloud.

Ready?

Two.

Three!

The winner is Sarada Uchiha!

Yeah, all right! Nice!

This means we got three straight wins.

Piece of cake.

Good thing your opponent was so weak.

Give me a break.

It isn't that she was weak, not at all.

I'm just so much stronger.

Well, okay. I guess that I'll make it four in a row, then.

Match four.

Inojin Yamanaka of the Hidden Leaf versus Araya of the Hidden Sand.

Inojin! Stay focused!

Quite a long weapon you have.

And these are my weapons.

As the saying goes, the pen's mightier than the sword.

Oh. Do you think that makes you look cool or something?

I'll pull that pretentious mask right off your face.

Ninja Art Super Beast Scroll!

How's that?

I made them with paper bombs inside.

No damage at all?

No way!

You were very close.

This is my lightning style overdrive. There's nothing you

can do to stop me.

Electrical signals sent from the brain are what make muscles move.

I can use lightning style to speed up those signals so that I'm more powerful.

You get it?

What is that?

Well, well.

Oop.

I'm not supposed to use that.

Now show me what's up next.

What was that just now?

The winner is Mitsuki of the Hidden Leaf!

Amazing! All right, I'm loaded up with calories.

Nice. Okay, I'll do this nice and easy.

Do your best, Cho -Cho. Of course.

Hand.

Come on, Mitsuki, give me your hand.

Yay!

Make sure you do your best out there.

Yep, I'm on it.

Well, Cho -Cho's the last one.

The last match of the first elimination round.

That boy's the ace from your village, isn't he, Gaara?

Is he strong?

You'll soon see.

Hey, hold on a second. Are you one of those shy boys?

Did you avert your gaze because you're enthralled by my charm?

I should apologize in advance.

Huh? And what does that mean?

I'm not so good with discretion.

Now, the final match of the first round.

Chocho Akimichi from the Hidden Leaf versus Shinki of the Hidden Sand.

Begin!

Well, this is turning out to be a real drag.

This is the first time, isn't it, that we've had a proper fight?

Let's do this fair and square.

No hard feelings, all right? Don't cry when you lose.

Next time on Boruto, Naruto Next Generation, Boruto vs.

Chikadai. Hey, wait.

Before that, there's still my match, you know. Both of you, quit getting all

fired up. You better watch me, you've got that?
