Looks like migration season is about to start.
I've heard that they start migrating right at dawn.
There are still some infected birds among them, right?
At this rate, the Curse Mark will spread throughout the world!
Boruto!
Get away…from me!
Mr. Jugo!
Hurry, let me see your true self!
Tosaka!
What have you done?!
Migration Season
What are you trying to do?!
I want to fight Jugo to test just how strong my Curse Mark is.
But what's the point if he's in his weakened state, right?
Is that why you used those drugs on him?!
You just don't know when to give up!
Mr. Jugo!
Huh?
Oh dear.
How are we going to deal with this many?
Don't just stand there!
Don't you want to protect these birds
that Jugo cherishes so much?
The red eyes!
We have to isolate the birds with red eyes!
Red eyes, got it!
Found one.
There!
Where is it?
The one on the right!
Oh!
Sarada!
Sarada! What are you doing?
Thank goodness, you're okay!
We managed somehow.
What are you doing in the water?
This is an emergency!
Help us find all the Wild Geese with red eyes!
I still feel numb.
Damn it!
Mr. Jugo!
Damn it, what's Suigetsu doing?!
Regardless, we'll do whatever we can until the very end!
– Right! – Right!
You're just as stubborn, aren't you?!
Hmm?
It's almost dawn!
If the Wild Geese succeed in spreading
the Curse Marks all over the world,
I'll be able to obtain samples that are much more interesting!
Not gonna happen!
Huh?
What the hell is he?
Don't you think I'm strong?!
You're mine!
What—?!
I'm gonna let you watch the finale from a front-row seat!
S-Stop!
I have to admit, even I'm getting irritated!
Quit wasting time, and just show me how strong you really are!
Hurry up and release your strength!
Stop this!
Mr. Jugo doesn't want to hurt anyone!
You say the strangest things.
That's just like telling a tiger not to go wild.
See?
Jugo actually wants to rampage!
That's his destiny!
Finally, the real performance begins!
Mr. Jugo!
I was starting to get tired of waiting!
We're going to fight each other now!
And I'll defeat you
to prove that my Curse Mark is the best in the entire world!
Orochimaru… can't hold a candle to me!
Bye-bye, Jugo!
Huh?!
This isn't happening…right?
He's absorbing the Curse Mark?
Mr. Jugo…
Boruto!
That was close!
There are too many!
There's no end to this!
Let's do our best!
It's only a matter of time before the birds take flight.
Sarada, I hate even saying this, but…
if you really want to stop the spread of this infection,
shouldn't we gather them up and torch them all right now?
We can't do that…
It's over.
No one's gonna hurt you.
Stop it!
I don't wanna fight you!
Boruto!
Damn that Jugo!
If you're gonna go on a rampage, do it close by!
When did I get like this?
Damn it!
It's useless.
Jugo can no longer… be stopped…so easily…
Shut up!
He'll probably…
keep rampaging like this… until he dies.
I won't let that happen!
I'll kill you.
I'll kill you!
Boruto!
Are you all right?!
I think so…
Nue, get back!
Nue! Get away from him!
Nue!
We'll only get caught up in it if we go in now.
We have to think of a better way!
Go wild, Jugo!
Total destruction is your destiny!
Shut up!
Trying to deny it is useless.
Every living creature…
is born to a fate… that cannot be reversed.
To hell with fate!
More of your empty musings?
Genetics this, or destiny that…
I'm not gonna be bogged down by that stuff!
Say what you will.
Any second now, the Wild Geese will take flight.
And the Curse Mark I created will spread all over the world.
I can't wait!
Ms. Karin, please wait!
If we let even one bird take off…
the threat of it spreading to birds in other locations will increase.
Then, we'll end up having to cull all the other birds as well!
Sarada, give that back to me.
I know how hard it is for you, but…
No. If we're going to use this, I have to do it myself.
After all, this mission was assigned to us.
Nue…
We have to stop him ourselves.
But how?
That time…
Big Bro Konohamaru stopped Jugo with his Rasengan.
You're saying, if he sustains serious damage,
it's possible he'll revert to his original state?
Yeah, but…
No matter how I look at it,
my Rasengan's not gonna be powerful enough.
That's it!
My Rasengan may not have enough force.
But if I factor in the speed that he'll come at me with,
it will multiply its force many times over.
You're going to face him head on?
If you do that, Boruto, you might—!
One wrong move, and I'm a goner.
But I have to do this.
Nue!
Nue, you've done enough.
Jugo!
Come on.
Let's settle this!
Some things might never come true,
no matter how hard you wish for them…
But the one thing you can't ever give up on…
is the desire to become who you want to be!
Boruto…
Shadow Clone Jutsu!
– Go! – Go!
Rasengan!
Wake up, Jugo!
No way!
Damn it!
My body's—!
I thought it was a good idea.
That guy's trying so hard…
Mr. Jugo…
I…really…
Boru…to…
Mr. Jugo!
That's…ridiculous!
The sun is…
The migration's gonna start!
With this Paper Bomb and my Fireball, I'll…
I'm sorry, Boruto.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jugo!
Mitsuki!
Leave it to us.
Us?
That's—?!
A serum to neutralize the effects of the Curse Mark.
We took it from their base camp.
Suigetsu, can you do it?
I'm only doing this for Jugo. Got that?
Looks like we made it in time.
Yes.
Look.
Yeah…
Go! Go!
All right!
I've made my decision!
We have to clean all of this up?
You know what they say
about leaving a place the way you found it.
You're going to the Scientific Ninja Tools Department?!
Don't tell Boruto and the others yet.
I want to tell them myself later.
You're really gonna leave?
Actually, they were trying to recruit me earlier.
I need to figure out how to synergize better with Nue.
And I want to find a way through science.
Are you serious?!
But wasn't the Scientific Ninja Tools Department
suspended after that incident?
There are plans to restart it from scratch.
At first, I was going to turn them down, but…
Boruto said we can't give up
on trying to become who we want to be.
You're such a task master.
This is a part of the mission!
So, can we call this mission… a success?
Yeah!
All that's left is to return to the village with Tosaka
and make him confess everything he knows about the Curse Mark.
Suigetsu and Karin took Tosaka and left a while ago.
Th-They left?!
Hey, hey!
I'm never gonna let this go!
We helped them out…
So, this is the least they can give us.
You're gonna pay for this, got that?!
Are you sad to part ways with Sarada?
Not really!
Besides, it's nothing like that!
Really? You seemed awfully kind to her, though.
You may've assisted in her birth,
but you're not feeling maternal, are you?
I said, it's nothing like that!
Oh!
What are you giggling about?
Huh?! Mind your own business!
His Rasengan worked.
Honestly, you are so reckless.
You could've died, you know.
Well, I stopped him, so it's all good, right?
I wonder what Mr. Jugo's going to do from now?
Who knows?
But the one who has to decide… is Mr. Jugo himself.
Do you believe it's possible?
– Huh? – Huh?
That one day… I can fly too?
Boruto, Mitsuki! I found a kitten.
It's pretty tiny! Is it lost?
I don't know. But it keeps shaking!
I'm worried and I want to take it home with me,
but we can't have pets at our place.
I'd have to ask my mom first.
So, Mitsuki! Can you take care of it for a little bit?
Next time on Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:
"The Little Roommate"
I got it. Leave the kitten to me.
