[00:17] ---
    I'm heading out, Father!
[00:28] ---
    Mom, I'm leaving!
[00:31] ---
    You're awfully late.
[00:33] ---
    Aren't you supposed to be on
    Lord Seventh's guard detail today?
[00:36] ---
    No.
[00:37] ---
    I'm accompanying
    the previous Hokage,
[00:39] ---
    so it's not a big deal if I'm late.
[00:40] ---
    Previous? You mean, Kakashi?
[00:43] ---
    And Mr. Guy, too!
[00:44] ---
    I'll probably be gone
    for 2 to 3 days.
[00:46] ---
    So, don't wait up for me.
[00:48] ---
    Be careful!
[00:49] ---
    Okay!
[00:54] ---
    My name is Mirai Sarutobi.
[00:57] ---
    By the way,
    Mom has unmistakably black hair,
[00:59] ---
    and so did my late dad.
[01:01] ---
    And this is my unruly hair!
[01:09] ---
    I'm told my father gave me
    the name Mirai.
[01:13] ---
    The reason why
    he named me that?
[01:15] ---
    Hmm… Maybe because it sounds
    optimistic and thoughtful?
[01:18] ---
    It probably sounded like
    a lucky name.

    The Steam Ninja Scrolls:
    The S-Rank Mission!
    
    
    
[02:55] ---
    The Steam Ninja Scrolls:
    The S-Rank Mission!
    
    And that's
    my grandpa,
[02:57] ---
    the Third Hokage, Hiruzen!
[03:00] ---
    Please!
[03:01] ---
    Please make sure today's mission
    will be a huge success!
[03:07] ---
    Yeah, I'm praying.
[03:09] ---
    Of course, I'm going to pray!
[03:10] ---
    Lord Seventh's someone
    I respect a great deal
[03:12] ---
    and he personally asked me
    to take this mission!
[03:15] ---
    No one will lay a finger on Lord Sixth…
[03:18] ---
    and Mr. Guy too,
[03:18] ---
    as long as I'm around!
[03:22] ---
    I can understand praying
    to the other Hokage…
[03:24] ---
    but praying to my dad
    won't get you anywhere.
[03:27] ---
    Boruto?
[03:28] ---
    Shikamaru Sensei!
[03:30] ---
    Hey!
[03:31] ---
    How unusual!
    I don't see you together often.
[03:34] ---
    He wanted to try the new burger, so…
[03:38] ---
    It was pretty average though.
[03:40] ---
    Are your taste buds destroyed?
[03:42] ---
    And naturally, I had to pay.
[03:45] ---
    Damn it,
    that was a horrible experience…
[03:48] ---
    Are you going on a mission, Mirai?
[03:50] ---
    Oh, that's right. It's today…
[03:52] ---
    I'll be guarding Lord Sixth…
    and Mr. Guy, too!
[03:56] ---
    I'm early, so I stopped by
    to see Grandpa's face…
[04:00] ---
    You've become a fine ninja.
[04:03] ---
    I'm still just a student
    in your presence, Sensei!
[04:06] ---
    You don't have to take
    that tone with my dad.
[04:10] ---
    I…am…not!
[04:14] ---
    Are you using them?
[04:16] ---
    Yes, of course!
[04:18] ---
    But they're quite difficult.
[04:21] ---
    I can't seem to use them
    like you do, Sensei.
[04:25] ---
    Your Chakra Nature
    is just like your dad's.
[04:29] ---
    There's no reason why you can't master
    your dad's Chakra Blades.
[04:34] ---
    Thank you, Sensei!
    I'll do my best!
[04:39] ---
    See? There's that tone again.
[04:41] ---
    That's enough out of you!
[04:43] ---
    One day, Shikadai,
    you're gonna get it!
[04:47] ---
    I'm counting on you
    when that day comes, Mirai Sensei!
[04:50] ---
    Dad!
[04:52] ---
    Give up while you can, Shikadai!
[04:55] ---
    Oh, that's right, Sensei!
[04:56] ---
    The answer is "bonds," correct?
[04:58] ---
    What's this all of a sudden?!
[05:01] ---
    Your quiz! Did you forget?
[05:04] ---
    The "king" that a shinobi
    should protect!
[05:07] ---
    Oh, that…
[05:10] ---
    "King" can also be read as gem,
[05:13] ---
    so it's in regard to that saying
[05:16] ---
    about a flawless
    and unbonded gem, correct?
[05:20] ---
    So, what's precious to a shinobi
    is their flawless bonds!
[05:24] ---
    Wrong.
[05:25] ---
    What?! That's not right?
[05:29] ---
    Mirai. You overthink things.
[05:32] ---
    Look at it more simply.
[05:35] ---
    FIRE
    
    
    
    
[05:36] ---
    FIRE
    
    
    
    Sensei!
[05:38] ---
    I'll get it right next time!
[05:40] ---
    Do your best!
[05:42] ---
    And then, Himawari was
    being such a know-it-all!
[05:46] ---
    There's nothing wrong with that.
[05:47] ---
    I'm jealous that
    you have a little sister.
[05:50] ---
    I wish I had siblings!
[05:52] ---
    I'm jealous of you, Mirai.
[05:54] ---
    I want to hurry up and
    become a chunin,
[05:56] ---
    so I can go on missions
    higher than B-rank.
[06:01] ---
    Yeah well…
[06:03] ---
    Just between us,
[06:04] ---
    my mission today
    is an important mission
[06:07] ---
    that surpasses even an S-Rank!
[06:11] ---
    S-rank?
[06:12] ---
    What kind of mission is it?
[06:15] ---
    You see, Boruto…
[06:19] ---
    Strolling around the villages along
    the national border with Lord Sixth?
[06:23] ---
    And Mr. Guy, too!
[06:25] ---
    Looks like
    a leisurely vacation to me.
[06:29] ---
    Absolutely, on the surface it does.
[06:31] ---
    However, Lord Sixth…
    and Mr. Guy too!
[06:33] ---
    …are personally going
    on this mission!
[06:35] ---
    There's just no way
    this is just an ordinary trip!
[06:38] ---
    A shinobi must be able to
    read between the lines!
[06:41] ---
    I'm supposed to pretend
    that I'm just accompanying them!
[06:44] ---
    But if something happens,
[06:46] ---
    I have to put my life
    on the line to protect Lord Sixth…
[06:49] ---
    It's obvious this is going to be
    an extremely difficult mission!
[06:53] ---
    Well, if you say so.
[06:56] ---
    Give it your all, Mirai!
[06:57] ---
    See ya!
[06:59] ---
    That kid's got no charm at all!
[07:01] ---
    Oh well.
[07:07] ---
    In a few days' time,
    the Leaf Village, no…
[07:09] ---
    the entire Shinobi World will know
    of the great achievements
[07:12] ---
    made by me, Mirai Sarutobi, who
[07:15] ---
    "crushed the evildoers and protected
    Lord Sixth…and Mr. Guy, too!"
[07:25] ---
    Hey, Kakashi,
    this breeze sure is nice, isn't it?
[07:28] ---
    Yeah, I'm so glad the weather
    turned out so nice.
[07:33] ---
    How come there's no tension
    in the air?!
[07:36] ---
    Besides, what's with all that luggage
    for just a 2 to 3-day long trip?
[07:40] ---
    Isn't that too much?
[07:42] ---
    Has he forgotten that
    he's a shinobi?
[07:45] ---
    Mirai…
[07:46] ---
    Yes, Mr. Guy!
[07:48] ---
    Have you forgotten…
    that you're a shinobi?
[07:51] ---
    What?!
[07:53] ---
    We're supposed to
    be ordinary citizens.
[07:56] ---
    We can't make it
    so obvious that we're shinobi.
[08:00] ---
    Oh, pardon me.
[08:05] ---
    Mirai, blending into the masses
[08:08] ---
    YOUTH
    
    is also a shinobi technique. Hup!
[08:11] ---
    I don't think ordinary citizens
    walk on their hands, though…
[08:15] ---
    Guy, don't you think
    you're sticking out a little too much?
[08:19] ---
    Way to go, Lord Sixth!
    Such a wise observation!
[08:22] ---
    I guess I stick out whatever I do.
[08:24] ---
    A bull-headed shrike, huh?
[08:26] ---
    Bring back memories.
[08:27] ---
    About what?
[08:29] ---
    Remember when you decided
    to do one-handed push-ups
[08:33] ---
    over a large post driven
    into the ground?
[08:38] ---
    That time, your hand slipped and
    you fell, belly first, onto the post,
[08:41] ---
    and ended up vomiting.
[08:43] ---
    Since then, every time
    I see a bull-headed shrike,
[08:45] ---
    I remember you,
    all bent over that post.
[08:49] ---
    Would you please forget
    about that?
[08:52] ---
    W-What kind of a conversation is this?
[08:55] ---
    I mean, seriously,
[08:56] ---
    how can they take this upcoming
    S-rank mission so lightly?
[09:00] ---
    No, no!
[09:01] ---
    This is the superior technique
    of blending into the masses!
[09:04] ---
    I must hand it to Lord Sixth!
[09:05] ---
    He makes himself look
    so absent-minded…
[09:07] ---
    masking his true stature
    as the previous Hokage!
[09:09] ---
    He must be continually dodging evil
    left and right!
[09:13] ---
    Right! Carelessness is
    a shinobi's worst enemy!
[09:16] ---
    Like this knapsack…
[09:18] ---
    I have to keep my hands
    free at all times,
[09:20] ---
    so that I can use my kunai or
    shuriken at any moment.
[09:26] ---
    Well… There are exceptions,
[09:28] ---
    but anyone carrying
    a large knapsack…
[09:30] ---
    should be viewed with suspicion
    as a possible shinobi.
[09:36] ---
    That cane!
[09:37] ---
    Is it actually a hidden sword?!
[09:52] ---
    What's the matter?
[09:53] ---
    You have such a scary look
    on your face.
[09:55] ---
    Huh? Oh, it's nothing!
[09:57] ---
    Don't tell me you suspected
    that old man just now
[09:59] ---
    of being a shinobi?
[10:01] ---
    As if!
[10:02] ---
    I was just checking
    that grassy area over there
[10:05] ---
    to make sure no enemies
    leap out at us!
[10:08] ---
    The grassy area, huh?
[10:10] ---
    I don't think that happens, usually…
[10:13] ---
    Y-You're right!
[10:15] ---
    Your ears are red!
[10:16] ---
    They're burning!
[10:18] ---
    They are not!
[10:20] ---
    Calm down!
[10:22] ---
    This journey is just beginning.
[10:23] ---
    If I wear myself out now,
[10:25] ---
    I won't be any good on
    this S-rank mission!
[10:28] ---
    You do know where
    the hallowed ground is, don't you?
[10:30] ---
    Yeah, I checked.
[10:33] ---
    Hallowed ground?
[10:35] ---
    Hallowed ground…
[10:36] ---
    In other words,
    a place that's sacred!
[10:37] ---
    See! I knew there was something!
[10:39] ---
    Is it a secret code?
[10:41] ---
    This is starting to smell like
    an S-rank mission!
[10:48] ---
    Is that it?
[10:50] ---
    Yeah…
[10:51] ---
    Here we go! Hallowed ground!
[10:59] ---
    Here we go!
[11:04] ---
    A draw again?!
[11:07] ---
    Okay, once more!
[11:10] ---
    That's about all
    we'll get with a rubber kunai.
[11:13] ---
    Well, that was a nice challenge
    between friends!
[11:15] ---
    All right! We'll try again
    at the next shop!
[11:18] ---
    Yeah!
[11:19] ---
    Huh? You're going to do it again?
[11:21] ---
    Shouldn't we head for
    the sacred place?
[11:23] ---
    Hold on…
[11:25] ---
    My arm!
[11:27] ---
    They're always around
    in touristy places like this.
[11:30] ---
    A pickpocket?
[11:31] ---
    Sorry, but can you go call
    a security guard?
[11:35] ---
    – There you go!
    – Oh…!
[11:39] ---
    Oh… Damn it!
[11:41] ---
    So dumb!
[11:43] ---
    Hold it!
[11:46] ---
    Hey, wait!
[11:50] ---
    Tree Bind Death!
[11:53] ---
    What the hell is this?!
[11:56] ---
    Let me go!
[12:00] ---
    Stop!
[12:09] ---
    I've gotten old.
[12:11] ---
    When I was young, I could punch 100,
    no, 200 pickpockets
[12:14] ---
    before they could even grab
    my wallet.
[12:18] ---
    You shouldn't punch someone
    before they even do anything wrong.
[12:23] ---
    Well, that's true.
[12:26] ---
    Will you two cut it out?!
[12:28] ---
    How can you be so careless!
[12:32] ---
    It's my fault for allowing
    a pickpocket to get near you.
[12:34] ---
    But the two of you have to be
    more aware of danger!
[12:39] ---
    In the first place, just grabbing
    his arm is not enough!
[12:43] ---
    You should've at least
    broken his arm!
[12:46] ---
    I wouldn't do that
    out of nowhere!
[12:48] ---
    I'm not Guy.
[12:50] ---
    I wouldn't go that far either.
[12:52] ---
    But, Lord Sixth!
[12:54] ---
    Listen up, Mirai.
[12:55] ---
    We're supposed to be disguised,
    so don't call me that…
[12:59] ---
    Calling him Lord Sixth is like
    announcing to the world
[13:01] ---
    that he's the Hokage.
[13:04] ---
    I-I'm sorry, Mr. Kakashi!
[13:06] ---
    And Mr. Guy, too…
[13:08] ---
    Here. Open it.
[13:14] ---
    TOO BAD.
    LET'S NOT DO BAD THINGS, SHALL WE?
[13:17] ---
    That's my spare wallet.
[13:20] ---
    Spare…wallet?
[13:23] ---
    To be well prepared means
    no worries.
[13:25] ---
    Being earnest is a good thing.
[13:27] ---
    But there are other ways
    besides power to settle things.
[13:33] ---
    Anyway, that's how it is!
[13:35] ---
    I see… I guess I went
    a little overboard.
[13:40] ---
    You're right!
[13:42] ---
    A petty thief is nothing
    compared to
[13:44] ---
    a mission that's even higher
    than S-rank!
[13:46] ---
    Right, Mr. Kakashi?!
[13:48] ---
    Mr. Kakashi?
[13:50] ---
    There it is…
[13:52] ---
    There's no mistake.
[13:54] ---
    There "it" is?
[14:01] ---
    That's "the tree in question."
[14:04] ---
    We finally found…
[14:07] ---
    the hallowed ground!
[14:17] ---
    This is the hallowed ground?
[14:19] ---
    Yeah, it seems so.
[14:21] ---
    Since it's hallowed ground,
    it must be very important, correct?
[14:26] ---
    That's what they say
    about hallowed ground.
[14:28] ---
    Guy!
[14:28] ---
    Oh!
[14:30] ---
    Mirai!
[14:31] ---
    Yes, sir!
[14:32] ---
    I'm standing right on it!
[14:35] ---
    On the hallowed ground that
    is Make-Out Paradise!
[14:40] ---
    Make-Out…?
[14:43] ---
    Make-Out Paradise!
[14:45] ---
    Kakashi's favorite book,
    ever since he was young!
[14:47] ---
    This is the location where
    the movie adaptation was filmed!
[14:51] ---
    Huh…? What?
[14:54] ---
    This is bad…
    I don't follow at all…
[14:57] ---
    MAKE-OUT PARADISE
    
    My long-cherished dream
    has been realized!
[15:00] ---
    You've always said
[15:01] ---
    you've wanted to come here
    for a long, long time, Kakashi!
[15:04] ---
    For a grown man to get
    so emotional,
[15:06] ---
    it must be one magnificent book!
[15:09] ---
    Um… What's the book,
    "Make-Out Paradise," about?
[15:15] ---
    What is it about?
[15:17] ---
    It's about…
[15:19] ---
    Can't say! I can't say!
[15:22] ---
    If it's that famous,
    I'd like to read it too.
[15:26] ---
    It's too soon for you!
[15:29] ---
    You saying that makes me
    even more curious!
[15:33] ---
    Then read this book!
[15:35] ---
    I supervised the compilation of
[15:36] ---
    "Leap Out Youth! 24 Hours
    of Hot-Blooded Exercises"!
[15:40] ---
    There's an accompanying video
[15:42] ---
    and you can exercise along
    with me for 24 hours too!
[15:44] ---
    Twenty-four hours?
    That's just not possible!
[15:48] ---
    No need to be shy!
[15:49] ---
    Okay, let's take
    a commemorative photo together!
[15:52] ---
    Make-out Paradise!
[15:57] ---
    I thought the "hallowed ground"
    was related to our mission.
[16:02] ---
    Can we re-focus and get back
    to our mission?
[16:05] ---
    Why don't we spend the night
    in this town?
[16:07] ---
    It's getting late.
[16:09] ---
    You're right!
[16:10] ---
    A nice, hot soak will
    wash away our fatigue.
[16:13] ---
    We're on vacation, after all.
[16:15] ---
    Huh? Vacation?
[16:18] ---
    You have it rough, though.
[16:20] ---
    Unless it's some kind
    of mission on paper,
[16:24] ---
    you can't leave
    the village like this.
[16:28] ---
    So, the purpose…
    of this trip…
[16:30] ---
    was really…just to take a vacation?
[16:34] ---
    So, the mission that was
    supposed to surpass S-rank…
[16:37] ---
    There's nothing like that.
[16:38] ---
    I thought it was strange…
[16:41] ---
    You were so pumped up
    about things.
[16:44] ---
    What?!
[16:54] ---
    Guard duty. Nothing unusual.
[16:58] ---
    It's so cold!
[16:59] ---
    It may be a holiday for them,
    but a mission is still a mission.
[17:02] ---
    I'll do this! Of course! But…
[17:05] ---
    Tempura, huh?
    Must be nice…
[17:09] ---
    Hey, he stole one!
[17:10] ---
    C'mon! Acting like a kid,
    at his age?!
[17:12] ---
    And Mr. Kakashi didn't even notice!
[17:16] ---
    Huh?
[17:19] ---
    Huh? Mr. Kakashi?
[17:23] ---
    You're gonna catch a cold!
[17:28] ---
    I can't enjoy my meal while
    you're out here doing this.
[17:32] ---
    B-But you didn't even notice when
    your tempura got stolen.
[17:36] ---
    Tempura? Oh!
    I've never been a fan of it.
[17:40] ---
    Guy always eats it for me.
[17:42] ---
    Even though, at his age,
[17:44] ---
    he's always complaining
    about indigestion.
[17:46] ---
    He's nice, isn't he?
[17:48] ---
    Is that so?
[17:50] ---
    Why don't you quit chomping on Food Pills,
    and come join us?
[17:55] ---
    No thank you!
[17:56] ---
    I'm just an attendant!!
[17:59] ---
    Wow, I'm just like a kid,
    acting so proud.
[18:02] ---
    I'm terrible.
[18:03] ---
    Besides, if I don't eat Food Pills
    and act like I'm on a mission…
[18:07] ---
    I wouldn't know
    what I'm doing here.
[18:09] ---
    Then at least go warm up
    in the hot springs!
[18:12] ---
    Aren't you cold out here?
[18:14] ---
    This is part of my mission, so…
[18:16] ---
    Watching you reminds me of Asuma
    when he was young.
[18:20] ---
    That awkwardness is so like him.
[18:26] ---
    Haven't people told you?
[18:28] ---
    Many people have told me
    about my father,
[18:32] ---
    but to be honest,
    it hasn't hit home.
[18:34] ---
    He's my father,
[18:36] ---
    yet everyone else knows
    much more about him…
[18:39] ---
    Am I like him?
[18:42] ---
    You're exactly like him.
[18:44] ---
    The way you put on a tough front,
    your stubborn sharpness…
[18:49] ---
    Was he sharp?
[18:52] ---
    He had the eyes of a carnivorous beast
    going after its prey.
[18:55] ---
    He sure didn't look like someone
    on a vacation.
[18:58] ---
    I see…
[19:00] ---
    Not getting any prizes at
    the target-practice game,
[19:02] ---
    and all of that…
[19:03] ---
    Was that just part of the plan
    to fool ordinary people?
[19:07] ---
    No, that was for real.
[19:10] ---
    Huh?
[19:11] ---
    Guy thought that if
    we won you a prize,
[19:14] ---
    you'd loosen up a little.
[19:17] ---
    But that Kuraa-ma toy
    was just too hard to get!
[19:20] ---
    I see.
[19:23] ---
    You're just too much for me.
[19:26] ---
    But I've been thinking lately,
[19:29] ---
    that my generation can't ever
    be like yours, Mr. Kakashi.
[19:35] ---
    What do you mean?
[19:36] ---
    The types that we encounter daily
    are armed bandits
[19:40] ---
    or at most, degenerate shinobi.
[19:42] ---
    There's no way catching
    petty bad guys like that
[19:45] ---
    will let us surpass
    the previous generation
[19:47] ---
    who put their lives on the line
    and fought.
[19:50] ---
    Hmm?
[19:52] ---
    I know being at peace
    is a good thing!
[19:54] ---
    But in an age of peace like this,
[19:57] ---
    I wonder what purpose continuing
    to be a shinobi serves?
[20:00] ---
    So that's why you were
    so enthusiastic this afternoon?
[20:06] ---
    You wanted to leave your mark,
    and win some recognition?
[20:11] ---
    That sounds about right.
[20:13] ---
    I'm sure my father never stressed
    over something trivial like this.
[20:19] ---
    Asuma would be very happy
    to see you now.
[20:24] ---
    Thank you for that, even if
    you're just trying to console me.
[20:27] ---
    I'm going to take a long, hot soak,
    and complete this mission!
[20:30] ---
    Sounds like a great idea!
[20:32] ---
    But now, I'm starting to regret that
[20:36] ---
    this will all be over in two days.
[20:39] ---
    Um…well…
[20:41] ---
    I believe I told them the mission
    was going to take 20 days.
[20:45] ---
    Huh?!
[20:47] ---
    Maybe you misheard "20"
    as "2" days?
[20:51] ---
    I got it wrong!
[20:55] ---
    I thought so!
[20:56] ---
    N-No, actually…
    the "2" kept sticking in my mind.
[21:00] ---
    With running around packing
    and praying at my dad's altar…
[21:04] ---
    20 days turned into 2 days!
[21:07] ---
    What do I do? I only brought
    two days' worth of clothes!
[21:10] ---
    What do I do?
[21:11] ---
    What do I do?
[21:12] ---
    I wondered why your backpack
    was so small.
[21:15] ---
    A bath! For the time being,
    I'm just going to take a bath!
[21:20] ---
    NOW CLOSED
    
[21:25] ---
    You're…quite an airhead,
    aren't you?
[21:28] ---
    It's just now! Only just now!
[21:31] ---
    Anyway, we'll be crossing
    the national border tomorrow
[21:34] ---
    and entering the Land of Steam.
[21:36] ---
    Just bear with it until then, okay?
[21:37] ---
    Well, good night.
[21:46] ---
    The Land of Steam…
[21:49] ---
    The land where
    my father's killer was born…
[23:26] ---
    The people of
    this hot springs district
[23:28] ---
    are all wearing dog or cat masks…
[23:30] ---
    I wonder what's going on?
[23:31] ---
    It's the Dog and Cat festival…
    or the Cat and Dog Festival.
[23:35] ---
    It's the day when dog lovers
    and cat lovers fight it out!
[23:38] ---
    What?! Mr. Kiba's here!
[23:42] ---
    Next time on Boruto:
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:44] ---
    "The Steam Ninja Scrolls:
    The Dog and Cat War!"
    
    
[23:47] ---
    Kiba and his girlfriend are fighting!
