Yeah.

Oh, thank you, Porito.

Mom, it's okay.

Dad!

Welcome back.

You okay, big brother?

This is nothing.

The attack by the Otsutsuki clan caused a lot of damage in the village.

And it meant that we had to cancel the tuning exams.

The official report was that the five Kage joined forces and put an end to the

whole incident.

And soon, things began to return to normal in the village.

Dad also went back to his usual hectic schedule.

I get it now. Being Hokage really is hard.

As for me...

Are you sure that you don't want me to get you a new one, Boruto?

Yeah. It looks cool like that.

See you next time.

Do you think an apology changes things?

You're right. I can't undo what I did.

But I just... I just wanted to apologize for... for putting you through that.

Thank you.

I don't know exactly what that scientific ninja tool is capable of, but

you dare cheat like that again.

Later.

You going around apologizing to everyone?

What's the deal, you guys? If you're gonna mock me, go home.

The exams were canceled, so maybe you should just drop it.

No, I gotta own up to it.

Yeah. I mean, it was all your fault to begin with.

All right already.

Why do you think I'm apologizing?

I'm guessing this isn't the end of things with them, is it?

I sincerely doubt it. As long as they plan on coming after the chakra in this

land, I'm sure that they're going to attack again.

Then for now, I guess all that we can really do is keep on investigating the

ruins left behind by Kaguya. What worries me right now is the one who got

Yeah, but you better be extra careful.

According to Gaara and the others, he hasn't revealed his full powers yet.

I know that.

See you later.

What, you're leaving?

Yeah. I'm the only one who's able to track him.

But... Why don't you just stay here and rest for just a little bit longer?

You know, to hang out with Sakura and Saruna.

That's all.

You're in no position to talk.

By the way, about the results of the tuning exams.

Even though we had to cancel it, we did still get to observe everybody's

abilities.

Which means that the next step is to meet up with the other villages to

exactly how we should move forward. Oh, that's right.

And we need to figure out what we're going to do about Katasuke and the

scientific ninja tools.

That reminds me, we got word that Killer B returned to the Hidden Cloud Village.

He's okay.

Old Man B is okay?

Oh, man, thank goodness.

Oh, uh, I was thinking that I'd like to take some time off. Uh -huh.

But I probably shouldn't. No, no, that's fine, of course. You're the Hokage,

after all.

You can decide whenever you want to take time off.

Right. But first, just make sure that you take care of all this paperwork.

How long is all of this going to take me?

Ever since the exams were canceled, we've been so busy.

I mean, I haven't even had a break.

After the Otsutsuki incident, there's been a lot of cleaning up to do and a

bunch of other little missions, too.

After all.

We are pros at public works.

Well, I wouldn't go stretching the truth quite that far.

Mitski, how are you? You feeling better now?

Yes, I'm okay.

Thank goodness.

You were hurt so badly back there. We started to get worried you weren't going

to make it.

Oh, well, back then, I infused more chakra than usual.

That's why I was hurt more.

Yeah? Oh, I didn't know that. Yes.

It was a good thing my parent made me strong.

That's what saved me.

Uh, your parent?

Oh. Yes.

Man, am I tired.

How many missions are we gonna have to go on? What a drag.

And it's all because someone did too well at the tuning exam.

Hey, come on.

I gotta try hard sometimes or else my dad will lose faith.

Besides, I don't want to lose to Boruto.

Look, Shigedari, hold on.

Why are you apologizing to me right now?

Well, I mean, I told you that I'd hear what you had to say, but I've been so

busy and made you wait, so... That doesn't matter at a time like this. Of

it does.

Listen, I'm the one saying sorry.

I'm apologizing, too.

Hey, stop that, Shigedari. Knock it off. Don't mess with me. You're so slow. You

just noticed? Just shut up. All right?

So, anyway, in the end, you had to take on a whole bunch of stuff all by

yourself. At least let me apologize for that.

So I'm sorry.

You're not supposed to apologize first, though. Oh, right.

Anyway, I feel bad I cheated. I'm really sorry.

Don't worry about it.

So, what was the power of the five kage like?

Those guys are, like, crazy strong.

And especially my dad.

But, uh, I haven't lost to him yet, you know? I swear, I'm gonna be an even

greater shinobi than my dad.

Hmm.

Hey, Boruto, do you remember the names and faces of the guys who took part in

the tuning exams?

Huh? You remember what kind of guys were there, right?

Yeah, of course. That's easy.

I think he's the guy with the iron sand, and then... Hold on.

You were hardly watching them at all.

There were a lot of amazing guys, you know.

If you don't pay attention, they'll get ahead of you.

What does that mean?

It means that I didn't like losing to you one little bit either.

I've decided that I'm going to become a shinobi on my own terms.

I won't let myself be affected by what my parents or what my clan says.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

We said that we weren't going to follow in our parents' footsteps.

But we've been doing it without even knowing it.

That's why I'm gonna go further than my dad ever even imagined.

There you go, talking big again.

But before that, I'm gonna beat you.

Even if you were to try using that scientific ninja tool again.

I'm never using that thing again, you know.

What is it, Shinki?

I was just thinking about Boruto Uzumaki.

He's foolish, reckless, and was supposed to be just a trivial low -level ninja.

And yet... He stood his ground.

Against a mighty foe one couldn't hope to defeat.

And he took him down.

Well, you just looked unpassively, is that right?

Hey, I'm only kidding. Don't glare at me.

Are you okay?

Shinki, I was the one who held you back.

I didn't allow you to go and fight.

I beg your pardon, father, but that isn't the real issue here.

Whether I had your permission or not, I had no chance of winning that fight.

Go up against Boruto Uzumaki and you'd defeat him hands down.

No mistake about that.

Isn't that enough for you?

I'm able to fight because I have you, Shinki.

Don't be impatient.

From my point of view as Kage, you've all just started on your own paths.

Focus on the road ahead, not those who walk beside you.

You must learn that your ninja way stretches far into the distance.

Boruto Uzumaki.

Well so far nothing else out of the ordinary has happened

I

Haven't seen that guy aside from that one time and I haven't had

that weird paralysis from then either That wasn't something as simple as mere

paralysis.

And it appears that no one other than you, and me, of course, with my

seems to have noticed what occurred back there.

Look, I'm not trying to scare you or anything.

But what happened to you back there wasn't normal.

So be on your guard.

If you sense something strange, then tell me.

You got it?

Hmm.

Well, no use worrying about it now.

I'm just going to stay focused on what's right in front of me.

Oh, yeah.

This is yours.

For now, you hold on to that.

It's proof you're my student.

Oh, okay.

When you come back to the village, you're going to train me again, right?

Sure. But that's only if you've mastered the basics that I've already taught

you.

You can count on that.

So what were you and Boruto talking about, huh, Dad?

It wasn't anything. Don't worry.

So, how long are you going to stay in the village?

It'll take another day to fully analyze all the data.

Then you know what you should do? Keep me company while you're waiting.

Okay, what do you want to do?

Well... What I'd really like to do is perfect my fireball juicer.

Just in case, for some day.

Sounds good.

All right!

Come on, let's go!

Oh, and tonight, Mom said she'll be waiting for us and making us a special

dinner.

Come on, let's go, Dad!

This is rare.

You coming in person.

I understand that you almost used Sage Jutsu in front of everyone.

Do you know what revealing it to the village would have meant?

That power cannot be used in front of others.

Most people won't know what to make of something beyond their comprehension.

I don't really care either way.

What's worse would be the light of the sun disappearing.

Is Boruto truly your son, then?

In order to ascertain that, you need to stay and live among them longer.

However, if you're okay with it, I suppose I have nothing more to say.

Sorry to bother you. If I linger too long, then who knows what people will

So I should be going.

Come home once in a while, so I can see in person how you're changing.

And thanks to the efforts of the five Kage, the incident was resolved.

But regrettably, the tuning exams had to be cancelled as a result. With us now

is the Genin who was at the scene and became caught up in the incident.

Now, let's hear all about it in your own words.

Yes, I see.

So please tell us, what do you think the most important thing is for a Shinobi

to have?

I'd say teamwork and perseverance.

Oh, how wonderful.

You know, there's something else I'd like to add. My dad said, what you got

here means less than what you feel in here.

Thank you for joining us today for the broadcast.

How come all of a sudden you're acting like the spokesperson for the rest of

Actually, I was interviewed as well, though.

Look, I don't know, okay? I just showed up and answered whatever questions they

asked. That's all.

Honestly, you're always so glib. I'm surprised that you didn't drag down my

and all the others right along with you. I can't help it if I'm good.

Oh, man.

I just knew that I should have tagged along with you guys. You know, you

are pretty amazing.

You are the seventh Hokage's son and the fourth's grandson.

Eventually, you'll be... Hey, Boruto.

You want to be Hokage.

Well, don't you?

Hmm.

Being the Hokage.

Yeah,

no thanks.

Huh?

Tell you what, when you become Hokage, I'll be your right -hand man, okay? I'll

make sure to guard you real well.

Uh, what?

To me, being Hokage is only one path.

Just because my grandpa and dad were Hokage doesn't mean I have to walk the

one.

But what I really want, Sarada, is to be a shinobi like your dad.

Because I, I've got my own ninja way.

What is it?

Look, do I have something on my face?

No, not really.

It's just... I was just thinking that your eyes are much bluer than Lord

are. Huh?

Mitski and I were talking about it before.

Right, Mitski?

Hmm? Oh, were we?

I gotta go.

I just remembered something I have to do.

Hey!

What was that all about?

I guess everyone's just busy. I should go, too. I have to report in.

Okay. See you tomorrow.

Heed this warning.

Beware, for those blue eyes shall eventually take everything from you.

And know this as well, that those who defeat the gods cannot remain

ordinary individuals any longer.

I'm home.

Oh, Dad!

Hey. Welcome home.

Your father bought this for us.

What? He did?

Sorry I'm late, but happy birthday.

Thanks so much, Daddy.

Dad, you... Oh, I guess you aren't a shadow clone this time, huh? What's the

big idea of doing that out of the blue?

But it was your fault to begin with! What was that?

You guys! Me too! Hey, come on! Be careful, Himawari!

All right, that's enough! Cut it out, all of you!

Or I'm gonna put the cake away!

You can't do that! No! Mom, I'm really sorry!

Come on, let's go eat the cake.

Yeah, good idea. I'm practically starving here.

Me too.

But Boruto, go wash your hands first.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Mommy!

I'll help.

All right.

Why don't you get the plates and set the table? Yeah, okay.

Hey, I can help you guys out too, you know.

Dad, you just go ahead and sit down.

I'm sure you're tired.

I mean, you gotta be at your age, am I right?

Look, don't treat me like an old man, you know?

Happy birthday. Make a wish.

Cheers!

Oh no, I overslept!

I'm late too!

Yeah, well, that's because you stayed up all night playing video games, you

know. I didn't hear you say no. You were playing just as much as me.

Come on, Dad.

Get it together, would you?

Give it your all, Lord Seven.

Uh -huh.

I won't remain ordinary?

Fine. Bring it on.

Whether it's destiny or a curse, go ahead and try interfering with my ninja

I never planned on being ordinary after all.

I'm a ninja.

That's right. I don't plan on becoming Hokage.

That was Dad's story.

My story starts right now.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Thank you for watching!

Uzumaki, huh?

Yes, I see.

So, that's the one who Tonari was observing.

He could pose a real threat to us in the future.

It would be best to take preemptive measures now.

Or, rather... Either

way, this is all going to be quite interesting.

A mission to guard a handsome actor?

Finally. Who knew such an incredible encounter would happen to me?

It's just so beautiful.

Hey, don't get carried away. Focus on your mission. Hey, Boruto, butt out. A

different kind of story is about to begin. A story of romance. Little kids

should get lost.

All right.

Starting now, it's Next Time on Boruto. Naruto Next Generation.

Super Chocho Butterfly Mode.

A story all about me.
