That's crazy!
Mitsuki has a will!
And since you keep insisting,
I don't believe all this talk about Fabrications having no will!
There's no way I can cooperate in a plan like that.
I've explained what I wish to do.
If still you aren't convinced…
If you oppose this heartfelt vow of mine…
Then it can't be helped.
We'll just go back to being enemies.
It looks like someone has come for us, just in time!
He's a Fabrication too!
Lord Ohnoki, our plan is at a standstill.
Please return immediately.
Can I take this one into custody?
Yes…
We can't afford to let the Hidden Leaf get wind of this.
Earth Style: Mud Wall!
Kakou!
Make sure you do no harm!
Okay!
Irritating pests!
Still, I wasn't expecting you to attack first.
Is that what they call the basic fighting instinct in humans?
Damn it!
I can't lose here!
The Sensation of Living
If you have nothing to do, go look for Boruto and Shikadai.
Chubs.
Why you—!
If they haven't returned after all this time…
What do we do?
Maybe those two escaped into the city.
That's—!
Mr. Akatsuchi?!
Oh no, is he dead?!
I'm okay… I'm not dead.
Are you all okay?
Actually, Boruto and Shikadai aren't back…
That's not good.
Damn it! What a pain!
Particle Style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu!
He knows Particle Style too?!
Tsk…
You're a nimble one.
Damn it!
I can't approach him carelessly.
Oh? Could your heart be pounding right now?
Let me get a taste of that feeling!
What are you talking about?
Give me a taste of it!
The old man's not here!
C'mon, what do you say?
No way!
Cho-Cho! We're heading over there!
Roger!
Inojin, take Mr. Akatsuchi to the cave!
Got it! Be careful, you two!
Are they fighting?
Did I get him?
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
This is fun!
Fighting is really fun, after all.
It feels kinda tight and itchy around here…
Is that how it feels when your heart's pounding?
Quit saying stuff that makes no sense!
All right!
Tsk!
What?!
A clone?!
Is it over already?
Cha, damn it!
Sarada?!
Thank goodness you're okay, Boruto…
We were worried, you know!
Cho-Cho!
Reinforcements, huh?
That's more like it.
‘Cuz it woulda been so boring,
if it ended this soon!
He must be hiding somewhere.
Tie him up as soon as you find him!
All right!
That's right! Naruto was summoned by the elders.
Hello, this is the Office of the Hokage…
Is that you, Dad?!
Shikadai, that you?!
Where are you now?
Dad, don't say anything, just listen.
What?!
Come with me!
Yeah, the village has been taken over!
I understand the situation.
Now listen, just lay low.
If you get captured again,
there's no guarantee you'll stay alive.
Dad, but I…
I've analyzed the situation,
and we don't have a moment to waste.
I… I've got to do what I can!
Wait, Shikadai!
"The knight that jumps far, falls prey to a pawn," huh?
Dad, I'm sorry for acting so selfishly.
But I came here of my own will.
I'm in enemy territory, but…
I have no intention of making a move where I'll fall prey to a pawn.
Hey, Shikadai!
Hey!
Shikadai, what happened?!
Are you okay? Hey, Shikadai!
Hey, Shikadai!
Shikadai!
Very nice!
I'm really starting to have fun!
Damn you!
Cha, damn it!
Oww…
Not being able to get close is bad.
Yeah…
He had his chance just now,
but he didn't attack with his Particle Style.
Thanks to that, we're okay.
Was there a reason for that?
What's he doing here?
You must be defective if you don't recognize me.
Stop it!
Are you with them too?
So this is where you've been hiding.
You're trying to protect him?
He was on your side to begin with, right?
At least I'm not turning my back on him, like you guys!
Very cute,
but still useless in a real battle.
It's not just cute, you see?
Sorry, but…
I'm going to seal you away.
You draw pretty nice pictures.
Make sure you draw a pretty picture of me too.
I'll pass.
I only draw things I want to draw…
FIRE
Why would Old Man Ohnoki do this?
I'm also worried about Mitsuki's role in all this.
This calls for quick action.
Granny Tsunade and Kakashi Sensei, we need your help too.
Shikamaru.
We'd like you two, as the former Hokage,
to explain the situation to each village and obtain their approval
for the Hidden Leaf's intervention into the Hidden Stone's affairs.
All right. Leave that to us.
However, the problem lies with the Feudal Lords, huh?
I'll meet personally with the Feudal Lords,
and get authorization to cross their borders.
Judging from past experience…
getting their permission will take time.
Even if you were to see them right away,
the procedures and what-not will take several days.
That'll leave Boruto and the others…
It will be fine.
No matter what it takes, I'll make sure Lord Seventh gets
to the Hidden Stone immediately.
I gotta say, you were like this when I was the Hokage,
and you are still so reliable.
Particle Style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu!
I thought so!
Hey, close-range combat's out!
Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!
After you release a Particle Style attack,
you can't use ninjutsu.
I'd say for about 20 seconds.
I've gotta hand it to you, Sarada!
You figured out my weakness and took advantage of it.
Your fighting style is so interesting.
Fighting is really interesting!
He's weakening!
Yeah, it's our chance.
Let's fight some more!
Let me get a taste… of the sensation of living!
All right!
Let's use these 20 seconds and finish this!
Of course!
No way!
Dodge!
That was close!
H-How can he still fire?
C'mon, c'mon! Attack me!
Let me have more fun!
There's no way to get closer!
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
Boruto!
Earth Style: Erupt!
Okay, with this, I win!
Are you okay, Boruto?
Yeah, that was a close call, but I think it's over.
Thank goodness!
Thanks, you guys.
The both of you being here was a huge help.
Let's return to the cave for now and…
Old Man?
Kakou… Why?
Why didn't you listen to me?
You said that Fabrications don't have a will of their own…
But to me, it seemed like he definitely had a will.
Anyway, I'm sorry, Old Man…
But you're gonna stay with us.
Guys! Are you okay?!
Inojin, you came too?!
Uh-huh…
I was worried about everyone.
But I'm glad you're all okay.
Yeah, things got really, really bad.
But let's go back to the cave and…
Hey!
What's going on?
No way, is he under a genjutsu?!
Okay, well done.
Mr. Akatsuchi!
Lord Ohnoki, good to see you.
It's you, Kirara…
Absolutely not beautiful at all.
You'll come with me without making any trouble, right?
All right, Lord Ku is waiting in the new city.
You guys were born for the sake of peace!
So why are you hurting humans?!
That is not our idea.
You guys have a will, a heart too!
We do not have a heart.
That is why we're better than you humans.
Next time on Boruto Naruto Next Generations:
"Clash: Kokuyou!"
Just give up and die already.
I'll provide you with the place where you'll die.
CLASH: KOKUYOU!
