[00:14] ---
    What do you think about Kokuri?
[00:17] ---
    He's originally a member of
    the Mujina Gang, after all.
[00:19] ---
    I think he's still hiding something.
[00:21] ---
    Yeah, seems he's hidden the money
    he stole from the Mujina Gang.
[00:25] ---
    And he committed aggravated robbery
[00:28] ---
    that landed him here
    at Hozuki Castle, right?
[00:30] ---
    I think we just have
    to ask him directly.
[00:34] ---
    Hey, Kokuri.
    You got a minute?
[00:36] ---
    What is it?
[00:37] ---
    Where's the money you stole?
[00:41] ---
    I hid the money in a safe place.
[00:45] ---
    You can't tell us?
[00:47] ---
    I will!
[00:48] ---
    When I get outta here.
[00:50] ---
    But you know—!
[00:51] ---
    If you're talking about cash,
    let me in on it too.
[00:54] ---
    We're not talking about
    anything like that.
[00:57] ---
    I'm done.
[00:58] ---
    You're going already?
[00:59] ---
    My appetite's not great.
[01:01] ---
    I understand.
[01:03] ---
    Who can eat the rotten food
    they serve here?!
[01:06] ---
    Hold on!
[01:08] ---
    We're not done talking
    about the money.
[01:10] ---
    Hey! Since it's the gang's money
    we're talking about,
[01:13] ---
    it's a lot, right?
[01:15] ---
    How much are
    we talking about, anyway?
[01:17] ---
    How should I know?
[01:19] ---
    Don't act dumb!
[01:20] ---
    We're friends, right?
[01:22] ---
    Let's be pals.
[01:25] ---
    Those guys—!
[01:27] ---
    Although our mission to
    protect him for the time being
[01:29] ---
    is going smoothly,
[01:31] ---
    Kokuri isn't going to
    tell us anything, huh?
[01:33] ---
    You're right.
[01:35] ---
    We just have to confirm if
    Kokuri is someone we can trust.
[03:09] ---
    Kokuri's Secret
    
    
    
[03:16] ---
    Have you given any thought
    to what we talked about?
[03:20] ---
    About getting rid of Kokuri?
    I already said no to any murder.
[03:22] ---
    It's not murder.
[03:24] ---
    All you have to do is send him
[03:26] ---
    to Hozuki Castle Number 2
    where my underlings are.
[03:29] ---
    It's nothing bad.
[03:30] ---
    You just have to authorize it.
[03:33] ---
    My underlings will
    take care of the rest.
[03:36] ---
    Transferring a prisoner isn't
    that easy.
[03:39] ---
    Kokuri stole our money
    and ran away.
[03:42] ---
    What he took is many times more
    than the jewels I gave you.
[03:46] ---
    What would you do if I said
    you get to keep it all?
[03:51] ---
    I'm just spreading
    the luck around.
[03:55] ---
    Be careful who you say things to.
[03:58] ---
    Are you that afraid of Mujo?
[04:00] ---
    Don't underestimate me.
[04:02] ---
    I'm the warden around here.
[04:04] ---
    If Kokuri is up to something,
    I'll make sure he's punished.
[04:18] ---
    Hold it.
[04:20] ---
    You both smell fishy.
[04:23] ---
    We haven't done anything bad.
[04:26] ---
    What's your connection to Kokuri?
[04:29] ---
    There's nothing.
[04:31] ---
    We're just friends.
[04:32] ---
    Friends?
[04:33] ---
    I don't know what
    you're scheming,
[04:36] ---
    but don't think
    you can fool me!
[04:38] ---
    We're not scheming anything,
    Warden Benga.
[04:45] ---
    Well, I've got many ways to
    find out about their secrets.
[04:54] ---
    You seem to be friendly
    with Boruto and Kokuri.
[05:01] ---
    No way!
[05:02] ---
    They're such pains!
[05:04] ---
    You really get what
    I'm talking about.
[05:07] ---
    I don't wanna get involved
    with them.
[05:09] ---
    In fact, I wish I could be
    in another cell.
[05:12] ---
    By the way…
[05:14] ---
    You made quite a lot from that bet
    with Doragu, didn't you?
[05:17] ---
    Me?
[05:18] ---
    I didn't win anything!
[05:20] ---
    Don't lie.
[05:22] ---
    Whenever you lie,
    your nostrils flare up.
[05:26] ---
    What?!
[05:27] ---
    Well, never mind.
[05:28] ---
    I hear your little sister's sick
    and needs money.
[05:32] ---
    Huh?!
[05:34] ---
    I'm sorry, Warden Benga!
[05:36] ---
    You're so thoughtful!
[05:40] ---
    Want one?
[05:42] ---
    Can I?
[05:43] ---
    No need to hold back.
[05:47] ---
    Delicious, aren't they?
[05:49] ---
    I haven't eaten one in so long!
[05:50] ---
    Thank you!
[05:52] ---
    No need to thank me.
[05:53] ---
    I bought them with your money.
[05:57] ---
    You sure had a lot
    squirreled away, didn't you?
[06:01] ---
    Unauthorized savings is
    prohibited at Hozuki Castle.
[06:05] ---
    I'm confiscating your money.
[06:07] ---
    Please wait!
[06:09] ---
    Is your sister that precious to you?
[06:12] ---
    "Your big brother's traveling
    in the Land of Lightning right now.
[06:17] ---
    "Recently, I helped a young boy who
    was being attacked by Rogue Shinobi.
[06:20] ---
    "Everyone showed me
    so much respect.
[06:22] ---
    "I was wounded in the battle,
[06:24] ---
    "but I consider it
    my badge of courage, so don't worry."
[06:27] ---
    Really?
[06:29] ---
    The guy who's known
[06:30] ---
    as the coward of Hozuki Prison
    fought with Rogue Shinobi?
[06:34] ---
    I don't think you're capable
    of such bravery!
[06:38] ---
    I wouldn't mind letting
    your little sister know
[06:40] ---
    that you're a convict.
[06:42] ---
    On top of which,
[06:43] ---
    if she learned that you committed
    aggravated robbery
[06:45] ---
    in order to get money to
    pay for her surgery…
[06:47] ---
    your sister's illness is bound
    to get worse.
[06:51] ---
    Please…
    don't let my sister know.
[06:55] ---
    I understand she's in the hospital
    after her surgery
[06:58] ---
    thanks to the aid
    from the Medical Foundation.
[07:01] ---
    Yes.
[07:02] ---
    Don't you want to see her?
[07:04] ---
    What do I have to do?
[07:06] ---
    Find out what Kokuri and
    Boruto are up to.
[07:09] ---
    If I turn into a rat,
[07:11] ---
    everyone will hate me like Kedama,
    and I'll get beaten up.
[07:14] ---
    Don't worry.
[07:16] ---
    This is just between us.
[07:19] ---
    No one will find out.
    And you'll get your money back.
[07:22] ---
    But—!
[07:24] ---
    Who cares if the other inmates
    hate you?
[07:27] ---
    Isn't your little sister important?
[07:30] ---
    You'll really let me see her?
[07:34] ---
    I'm not a liar.
[07:43] ---
    I can't believe they did
    something so horrible.
[07:45] ---
    Everyone's bored and
    has time on their hands.
[07:49] ---
    Do you like flowers?
[07:51] ---
    It's not about liking or hating them.
[07:55] ---
    Then why take care of them?
[07:59] ---
    I've forgotten already.
[08:05] ---
    What did you want to show me?
[08:07] ---
    Come with me and you'll find out.
[08:14] ---
    This is for my little sister.
[08:16] ---
    Don't hold it against me.
[08:20] ---
    It's in here?
[08:21] ---
    Yeah.
[08:22] ---
    Hold on for a minute.
[08:36] ---
    Boruto?
[08:43] ---
    Are you over there?
[08:47] ---
    Tsukiyo!
[08:49] ---
    I thought you were in solitary!
[08:53] ---
    I came out to kill you.
[08:59] ---
    Boruto!
[09:00] ---
    Are you okay?!
[09:03] ---
    Guard!
[09:04] ---
    Help!
[09:08] ---
    Why isn't anyone coming?!
[09:14] ---
    Boruto!
[09:16] ---
    Run!
[09:17] ---
    But—!
[09:18] ---
    Where'd you hide our money?
[09:21] ---
    I don't know!
[09:22] ---
    Want him to die?
[09:25] ---
    Stop!
[09:27] ---
    All right! All right!
[09:30] ---
    The money's…
[09:32] ---
    all gone!
[09:34] ---
    You were the accountant.
[09:35] ---
    We know you took the money,
    there's no mistake.
[09:37] ---
    And there's no way
    you can spend that much!
[09:40] ---
    I'm not lying!
[09:41] ---
    The day I ran away,
[09:42] ---
    I donated all the money!
[09:45] ---
    Release!
[09:53] ---
    Tsukiyo?
[09:54] ---
    Are you serious?
[09:56] ---
    I never heard of anyone
    donating the money they stole.
[09:59] ---
    It's certainly not something
[10:01] ---
    a member of a gang
    of robbers would do.
[10:03] ---
    What's going on?
[10:05] ---
    Sorry we were rough with you.
[10:07] ---
    We used genjutsu on you
    in order to find out the truth.
[10:26] ---
    Damn it.
[10:27] ---
    I wonder if the Leaf
    will believe us
[10:29] ---
    if we report that the entire amount
    was donated?
[10:32] ---
    But I believe you.
[10:36] ---
    Boruto.
[10:41] ---
    Boruto and that girl are Leaf Shinobi?!

    It's hard to believe,
    but it seems to be true.
[10:53] ---
    C'mon, Mitsuki!
[10:55] ---
    You don't have to
    double check everything.
[10:57] ---
    This is part of our mission too, right?
[11:00] ---
    It's his fault for hiding it from us.
[11:03] ---
    I'm sorry for lying.
[11:06] ---
    So, you were a good guy,
    after all!
[11:09] ---
    Hey, what are you doing?!
[11:12] ---
    Actually, I'm not a good guy at all.
[11:20] ---
    I wasn't good at ninjutsu,
[11:22] ---
    so I was hired as an accountant
    at a certain company.
[11:27] ---
    Here's today's sales.
[11:28] ---
    Deposit it at the bank.
[11:31] ---
    Okay.
[11:34] ---
    Later, I found out that
[11:36] ---
    it was money
    that the Mujina Gang stole.

[11:44] ---
    When I learned that the money
[11:46] ---
    was all from
    the previous day's attack,
[11:49] ---
    my mind went blank and
    I ran away in desperation.
[12:07] ---
    Then I realized that
    I ran off holding the money.
[12:10] ---
    In the middle of
    my panic and confusion,
[12:12] ---
    MEDICAL FOUNDATION
    GIVE CHILDREN A HELPING HAND
    
    I saw a poster.
[12:14] ---
    MEDICAL FOUNDATION
    GIVE CHILDREN A HELPING HAND
    
    
[12:20] ---
    This was stolen money.
[12:22] ---
    I wanted it to be used
    to help sick kids.
[12:26] ---
    So, I donated it all!
[12:29] ---
    I can't believe you survived.
[12:32] ---
    I didn't feel alive.
[12:43] ---
    A Mujina Gang member spotted me,
    and I ran like hell.
[12:58] ---
    Swimming was the one thing
    I've always been good at.
[13:01] ---
    And it saved my life.
[13:07] ---
    I felt like I'd been given
    a second chance,
[13:09] ---
    and I swore I'd atone
    by helping people.
[13:12] ---
    What are you doing?!
    Hand it over!
[13:14] ---
    Hey, let go!
[13:17] ---
    One day,
[13:18] ---
    I was trying to help a woman
    who had her wallet stolen.
[13:21] ---
    I punched the pickpocket and
    returned the wallet to the woman.
[13:24] ---
    Of all the luck,
[13:27] ---
    it turned out the woman
    was the pickpocket,
[13:29] ---
    and the man I punched
    was the victim!
[13:34] ---
    I was charged as
    the woman's accomplice,
[13:36] ---
    and sent here for
    aggravated robbery.
[13:40] ---
    But what could I do?
[13:42] ---
    I was guilty of being a member
    of the gang, after all.
[13:45] ---
    I got it, ya' know.
[13:47] ---
    Boruto.
[13:48] ---
    Okay, no more secrets
    from now on!
[13:51] ---
    But I don't have the money!
[13:53] ---
    And you're still going to protect me?
[13:55] ---
    Is that what you're worried about?
[13:58] ---
    The money doesn't matter at all.
[14:00] ---
    Just trust us Leaf Shinobi.
[14:02] ---
    We'll protect you for sure!
[14:05] ---
    Okay, thank you!
[14:10] ---
    HIDDEN GRASS TIMES
    MYSTERY!
    A LARGE DONATION HELPS
    THE MEDICAL FOUNDATION!
    
[14:15] ---
    He donated all the money
    he stole?
[14:18] ---
    Kokuri is such an idiot.
[14:21] ---
    But now, I know everything
    about them.
[14:24] ---
    I'll be able to see my little sister.
[14:27] ---
    And I'm taking this as proof.
[14:31] ---
    HIDDEN GRASS TIMES
    MYSTERY!
    A LARGE DONATION HELPS
    THE MEDICAL FOUNDATION!
    
[14:34] ---
    The money that Kokuri donated…
[14:37] ---
    Was that—?
    My sister—?!
[14:47] ---
    We got word from
    the Hidden Grass.
[14:50] ---
    Kokuri's going to be paroled.
[14:53] ---
    It seems his prison term had
    been unfairly lengthened.
[14:56] ---
    Damn it, so irresponsible!
[14:58] ---
    I've always known Mr. Mujo to be
    strict about regulations.
[15:02] ---
    He may be
    the Lord of Hozuki Castle,
[15:04] ---
    but I guess it's hard
    to oversee everything.
[15:07] ---
    Well, once he's released on parole,
[15:10] ---
    Boruto and the team's mission
    to guard Kokuri will be over.
[15:13] ---
    That's a relief.
[15:16] ---
    Please notify Boruto
    and the others quickly.
[15:18] ---
    I'll contact Mr. Mujo.
[15:21] ---
    Yes, please do.
[15:22] ---
    All that's left is for Kokuri
    to get to the Leaf
[15:25] ---
    where we can question him.
[15:26] ---
    We'll finally get intel
    on the Mujina Gang!
[15:33] ---
    I hope you learned something
    about Boruto and Kokuri.
[15:37] ---
    Yes…
[15:38] ---
    About Boruto and the others…
[15:43] ---
    They…
[15:47] ---
    …don't have any secrets between them.
[15:51] ---
    You're gonna lie to me?
[15:58] ---
    Useless bastard!
[16:01] ---
    It's true!
[16:02] ---
    There's nothing on those guys!
[16:05] ---
    That's not the case at all, is it?
[16:08] ---
    Do you want your little sister to
    know you're in Hozuki Castle?
[16:13] ---
    Neither Boruto nor Kokuri
    have any secrets!
[16:18] ---
    Why you—!
[16:20] ---
    You realize
    what's going to happen?
[16:24] ---
    Mr. Benga!
[16:26] ---
    Lord Mujo is summoning you.
[16:27] ---
    What a pain!
[16:29] ---
    Hey, Haie!
[16:31] ---
    Make his term longer and
    throw him into solitary.
[16:34] ---
    Yes, sir.
[16:37] ---
    Scum!
[16:42] ---
    You messed up,
    defying Mr. Benga like that.
[16:50] ---
    Your big brother fought
    with that jerk Benga
[16:55] ---
    and protected the man
    who saved your life.
[16:59] ---
    This will be
    my real badge of courage.
[17:08] ---
    Kokuri's going to
    be released on parole.
[17:11] ---
    Parole?
[17:12] ---
    Is there a problem?
[17:14] ---
    No, but—!
[17:15] ---
    He's a criminal!
[17:18] ---
    This was decided by
    the Hidden Grass Village.
[17:21] ---
    I understand.
[17:23] ---
    By the way, I got word that
[17:25] ---
    you've been extending
    prison terms arbitrarily.
[17:28] ---
    Is that true?
[17:29] ---
    It was just to punish
    rebellious behavior!
[17:34] ---
    Whatever the reason,
[17:36] ---
    I cannot overlook such improper actions
    taken against the inmates.
[17:39] ---
    Are you siding with criminals here?
[17:42] ---
    That's not what I'm doing.
[17:45] ---
    Benga…
[17:46] ---
    you're on indefinite suspension.
[17:50] ---
    Expect harsh punishment
    from the Hidden Grass.
[17:54] ---
    You don't have
    a future here anymore.
[17:57] ---
    Lord Mujo!
[17:59] ---
    Think hard and repent
    on your actions.
[18:02] ---
    That's—!
[18:03] ---
    Please, I'll never do it again!
[18:06] ---
    I cannot bend the rules.
[18:09] ---
    I'm very sorry!
[18:10] ---
    Please forgive me, Lord Mujo!
[18:13] ---
    Benga!
[18:16] ---
    We're done talking.
[18:18] ---
    You may leave—!
[18:30] ---
    Think hard and repent
    on my actions, you say?
[18:35] ---
    Don't get smart with me.
[18:43] ---
    As long as this doesn't exist…
[18:45] ---
    Hozuki Castle and
    Kokuri's money are mine.
[18:52] ---
    Mr. Mujo!
[18:55] ---
    What happened?
[18:56] ---
    Stand back!
[19:01] ---
    Mr. Mujo!
[19:05] ---
    I didn't expect you to come to me.
[19:08] ---
    I'm transferring Kokuri to
    Hozuki Castle Number 2.
[19:11] ---
    Satisfied now?
[19:14] ---
    It seems that luck
    has smiled on you as well!
[19:17] ---
    Where's Kokuri's money?
[19:19] ---
    Don't be so hasty.
[19:21] ---
    I have an idea where he hid it.
[19:24] ---
    If you betray me, you know
    what will happen, don't you?
[19:27] ---
    I don't stand for betrayal either.
[19:32] ---
    Keep your word.
[19:35] ---
    Luck is within our grasp.
[19:40] ---
    Something's not right.
[19:42] ---
    It's past dinner time,
    but we're still locked up.
[19:46] ---
    Not only that,
    old man Kamata's gone.
[19:49] ---
    I wonder if something happened?
[19:51] ---
    I haven't seen him since
    this morning in the cafeteria.
[19:54] ---
    Maybe his stomach's bothering him?
[19:56] ---
    Things aren't the same
    without that loudmouth.
[20:02] ---
    Attention!
[20:05] ---
    From today, I'm standing in
    as the lord of the castle,
[20:08] ---
    and I'll be looking after you all!
[20:10] ---
    Standing in as
    the lord of the castle?
[20:12] ---
    What happened to Mr. Mujo?
[20:14] ---
    That deserves a punch,
[20:15] ---
    but it's a good question.
    Let me give you an answer.
[20:18] ---
    The lord has fallen ill.
[20:20] ---
    What did you say?
[20:21] ---
    I don't know what you're scheming,
[20:23] ---
    but there's no one here
    to protect you anymore.
[20:26] ---
    What happened to
    old man Kamata?
[20:28] ---
    He's in solitary.
[20:30] ---
    What's going on?
[20:32] ---
    You're gonna be released
    from this castle.
[20:34] ---
    Really?
[20:36] ---
    Your transfer to Hozuki Castle Number 2
    has been authorized.
[20:40] ---
    By early next week,
[20:42] ---
    you'll be reunited with
    your old friends.
[20:45] ---
    That's not good! Not there!
[20:48] ---
    What are you doing?!
[20:51] ---
    Be friendly with each other
    while you can.
[21:00] ---
    It's all over.
[21:02] ---
    I'm gonna be killed.
[21:04] ---
    Don't worry, Kokuri.
[21:06] ---
    You have us.
[21:07] ---
    But why are they in a rush
    to transfer you?
[21:11] ---
    I don't know!
[21:13] ---
    Hozuki Castle Number 2 is where
[21:14] ---
    members of the Mujina Gang
    are locked up.
[21:18] ---
    If I'm transferred there,
    there's no doubt I'll be killed.
[21:21] ---
    The transfer will take place
    at the start of the week.
[21:24] ---
    Without Lord Mujo,
    we can't contact the Leaf Village.
[21:28] ---
    It's over for me, after all!
[21:30] ---
    I told you it'll be okay, didn't I?
[21:31] ---
    But—!
[21:33] ---
    The way it stands,
[21:34] ---
    we have to do it before
    you're transferred.
[21:36] ---
    What are we going to do?
[21:37] ---
    We're gonna take Kokuri
    and break out of here.
[21:40] ---
    Break out?!
[21:43] ---
    I made a promise to
    get Kokuri out of here
[21:47] ---
    and take him to
    the Hidden Leaf.
[21:49] ---
    I'm gonna protect him for sure!
[23:26] ---
    We don't have much time
    before Kokuri gets transferred
[23:28] ---
    to Hozuki Prison Number 2.
[23:29] ---
    For us to break out of here
    with Kokuri…
[23:32] ---
    …we have to find a safe route
[23:34] ---
    and a way to release
    the Celestial Prison Jutsu.
[23:35] ---
    We've got a bunch of obstacles
    to overcome, don't we?
[23:37] ---
    We have to proceed carefully
    without any missteps.
[23:39] ---
    Honestly, this is going to be tricky.
[23:41] ---
    Next time on Boruto:
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:44] ---
    “Breaking Out of Hozuki Castle”
    
    
    
[23:47] ---
    We'll do it tomorrow morning.
    
    
    
[23:48] ---
    We have to do everything we can
    
    
    
[23:50] ---
    to make sure the prison break
    will be successful by then!
