You're going awfully fast.

Once we're in the Land of Fire,

the end of your mission will be in sight.

We can't let our guard down just yet.

Well, there's no need to be so uptight.

Anyway, I wonder how Boruto is doing?

First comes tag, then hide-and-go seek?

Why don't you just hand over the One Tail soon?

I have to buy some time until Shinki delivers Shukaku!

Aren't you aware that it's useless to hide, Boruto Uzumaki?

Boruto and Shinki

Please stop!

You're in the Land of Fire.

Entry into our territory

without authorization from the Leaf is prohibited.

You're Lord Kazekage's—!

I have no intention of fighting you.

Lord Kazekage sent me on an urgent mission to see Lord Hokage.

Mission? Please tell me the details.

I must speak directly with Lord Hokage.

That's not possible.

Tell me the details right now.

I cannot discuss this…

…to anyone under jonin rank.

Then I'll hear you out.

Mr. Sai!

I thought you were on vacation?

Yes, and it was fun.

Once I returned, Lord Seventh asked me to head to the Land of Wind.

There's been no contact from Sasuke,

so, I was on my way to investigate.

During the Chunin Exams, you were the—!

Why do you need to see Lord Seventh so urgently?

I see…

Otsutsuki is currently being distracted by a decoy.

Get in touch with border security.

Tell them to be on high alert.

Yes, Sir!

And I'll deliver Shukaku to Lord Seventh.

Mirai and Shinki, please standby here.

Yes, Sir!

Damn it!

A clone?

I can't move!

It can't be!

You misled me.

So, the other boy has the real one, does he?

Shukaku's probably with my dad right about now.

Too bad, huh—?!

It seems you're not a clone.

Why you—!

Since it's come to this…

I have no choice but to use you as a hostage.

Damn it!

I'll never be your hostage!

That's not for you to decide.

Naruto Uzumaki…

will no doubt agree to a trade, in exchange for your life.

I wonder about that…

Shinobi aren't influenced by things like that.

Then let's test it out, shall we?

We'll see if he's swayed or not,

when he sees you battered and broken!

I'll extract your chakra just up to the brink of dying.

All right, it's over.

Impressive of you to sacrifice your real body.

But it's too bad, really.

This time, it's really over!

What?!

Shinki!

What are you doing here?

Why did you come back?

I've ensured Master Shukaku's safety.

I've completed my mission.

Now, I'm free to do whatever I please!

Well, okay.

Let's leave it at that.

Damn it!

Hey!

You can guarantee that you're gonna do this rationally, right?

No, I can't!

Huh?!

That's so unlike you!

I wonder whose fault that is?

I accomplished my mission.

But I don't feel satisfied at all.

That's all!

I don't know if we can bring him down, but…

Together, we'll crush him!

Yeah!

All right, one hostage is quite sufficient.

So, let's have the other one die!

Black Iron Wings!

He disappeared!

He moved through a different dimension!

That's inconvenient.

This sensation!

I've felt it before.

That looks like the Jougan!

You have such a troublesome eye!

That eye is—?

You can tell where he's going to appear?!

Yeah.

If we can just send him into the other dimension one more time…

Even if you know my position, you have no chance of winning!

Over there!

This is nothing!

Bet you can't tell who's the real one!

It doesn't matter if I destroy all of you, right?

Too late!

Black Iron Fist!

Rasengan!

Did we…get him?

Ouch! I didn't expect this much out of you.

I'm gonna kill you!

If you didn't come back to help,

you wouldn't have to go through all of this.

I came to beat him…

I didn't come back for your sake.

I should've expected that. You still piss me off.

Now, die!

Sasuke?!

How did you get here?

Someone kept opening and closing the Time-Space many times.

Thanks to that, I was able to pinpoint this location.

Chidori!

He disappeared?!

He doesn't seem to have disappeared into Time-Space…

I'm out of chakra, huh?

Looks like I can't pursue Urashiki any further.

Sasuke!

Thank goodness you're alive…

Where am I?!

Lord Kazekage!

Oh good!

That hurt!

Looks like I'm okay, though.

Guess it wasn't smart to use my secret weapon.

Hey!

Look!

Lady Temari!

Lord Shikadai!

You're both safe!

Quickly, we have to tend to your—!

Wait.

First, where's Kankuro?

A different platoon found Lord Kankuro a short while ago. He is safe!

Thank goodness.

FIRE

Your son played the decoy and that's why…

…I was able to make it here.

You need to go and do something quick!

Who would've imagined this was happening?!

Shikamaru.

I'm going to the scene right now!

Take care of things here!

There's no need for that.

Sasuke!

It's been three days,

but there's been no sign of Otsutsuki's movements.

But we don't know when and where he might appear next.

There's the issue with the Tailed Beasts too.

We have to discuss this with the other Kage.

Yeah, we should make arrangements and call for a Five Kage Summit.

I'm indebted to Boruto.

Please thank him for me.

Sure.

But we caused you a lot trouble as well.

Boruto is just like you, and yet so unlike you.

He's smarter than you were when you were young.

Huh?!

That's not true, ya' know!

MEDICAL In the end, Urashiki got away from us.

Still, Shukaku made it to Lord Seventh safely,

and everyone's alive.

I'd say that's good enough this time.

More importantly, are you ready for the scolding you're gonna get

from your mom?

You lied about leaving, right?

Don't come to me crying.

You even lied to Himawari this time.

A-Anyway!

Guess I'll go pay Shinki a visit!

Shinki?

He already left the hospital.

What?!

While you were sleeping,

Uncle Gaara came by and Shinki was discharged.

Huh?!

He didn't even say bye!

They're leaving on the Thunder train this afternoon.

Damn it!

That's leaving soon!

Be careful, okay?

Please come to the Leaf to visit Boruto again.

Yes.

Anyway, I have to get going.

Sorry I can't stay to see you off properly.

Don't worry about it.

Good job delivering Shukaku here safely, Shinki.

The mission was accomplished.

But I still don't understand what you told me, Father.

Boruto has something that you don't possess at this point in time.

You will probably come to learn what that is.

I've learned nothing from him.

To him, his emotions are everything.

He's just naïve.

Without power to go along with it,

he'll lose both his friends and his missions.

That's why I will prove it to him.

That the path I walk will ensure no regret or loss of friends.

Shinki!

What do you want?

Hey, man!

If you're gonna leave, tell me!

Why should I?

At least say bye to a friend when you leave!

Take care, okay?

Next time you come to the Leaf… I'll show you around.

You too.

Do your best not to die.

Huh?!

See you again, Shinki!

How long are you going to stay in that tea kettle, Shukaku?

That's what I wanna know! That damn fox just made fun of me!

Sorry about that. It's just to keep you safe.

You're going to be staying with me for a while.

I don't like being under the same roof with that damn fox one bit!

It's a talking Shukaa-ku!

Shukaku's Trick

It won't be bad using this to search out his weakness, is it?
