[00:06] ---
    Let's take stock of our situation.
[00:08] ---
    The ones who tricked us and escaped
    with the Hashirama Cell
[00:11] ---
    were those lookalike shinobi, right?
[00:13] ---
    Yeah.
[00:14] ---
    I remember seeing those earrings.
[00:18] ---
    When we met Kirisaki at the pub,
    they were there in disguise.
[00:22] ---
    So we were being watched
    since then?
[00:25] ---
    Probably.
[00:26] ---
    They used some method to
    get past the tight security
[00:30] ---
    got one step ahead of us and…
[00:32] ---
    …killed the Lady of the Castle
    and stole the Hashirama Cell.
[00:37] ---
    We don't even know what village
    they're from, right?
[00:41] ---
    This is just about the only lead
    we have.
[00:51] ---
    Tracking…tracking…
[00:53] ---
    Anyway, after making it this far,
[00:56] ---
    looks like we don't have to worry
    about guys coming after us.
[00:58] ---
    Don't let down your guard!
[00:59] ---
    There are shinobi from other lands
[01:00] ---
    trying to get their hands on
    the Hashirama Cell too.
[01:02] ---
    I know that!
[01:09] ---
    Boruto! Sarada!
[01:16] ---
    Lightning Style?!
[01:17] ---
    What was that, all of a sudden?!
[01:23] ---
    Who are they?
[01:28] ---
    Hey, you!
[01:30] ---
    What?!
[01:31] ---
    Are you guys after
    the Hashirama Cell too?!
[01:34] ---
    Are you the guys who proclaimed
    you were Hidden Leaf shinobi,
[01:36] ---
    who murdered Sakuya,
    the Lady of Fushuu Castle
[01:38] ---
    and escaped with
    the Hashirama Cell?
[01:41] ---
    No way, a little kid like him?
[01:43] ---
    What a surprise.
[01:45] ---
    Quit looking down on me!
[01:47] ---
    Hand over the Hashirama Cell.
[01:50] ---
    We don't have it, ya know!
[01:53] ---
    We're gonna have to verify that.
[01:55] ---
    What?!
[01:56] ---
    I already said we don't have it!
[02:00] ---
    So, are you gonna keep this up,
    or are you gonna come clean?
[02:02] ---
    If you don't hand it over,
[02:04] ---
    you're gonna get hurt.
[02:08] ---
    You wanna do this?!
[02:10] ---
    Wait!
[02:11] ---
    Why are you stopping me, Big Bro?!
[02:14] ---
    You're Mr. Omoi from
    the Hidden Cloud, right?
[02:20] ---
    You're—!
[02:21] ---
    Is that you, Konohamaru?
[02:23] ---
    Yes!
[02:24] ---
    You know him?
[02:25] ---
    He's a close aide to Lord Raikage
    of the Hidden Cloud.
[02:29] ---
    And also,
    he's a close friend of Karui's.
[02:33] ---
    A friend of Cho-Cho's mom?!
[02:35] ---
    First, answer my question
    from before.
[02:37] ---
    Did you kill Sakuya and
    steal the Hashirama Cell?
[02:43] ---
    Like I already said, you're wrong!
[02:45] ---
    Someone framed us!
SIGN    1\fad(250,500)\pos(509.333,266.667)}The Pursuers*
[04:21] ---
    A rumor was
    going around that
[04:22] ---
    the Hashirama Cell was
    in the Land of Silence.
[04:25] ---
    Lord Raikage felt it could turn
    into a dangerous situation…
[04:29] ---
    so, he ordered Marui, Kakui and me
[04:31] ---
    to sneak into the Land of Silence
    and investigate.
[04:35] ---
    Then all of a sudden,
    there was a big commotion.
[04:38] ---
    That's when we heard that
    Leaf shinobi murdered
[04:42] ---
    Sakuya, the Lady of Fushuu Castle
    and stole the Hashirama Cell.
[04:44] ---
    The guys who framed us
    spread those lies!
[04:48] ---
    As a result,
[04:49] ---
    we're being pursued by a bunch
    of different groups of people.
[04:52] ---
    And? Do you know who
    the real perpetrators are?
[04:56] ---
    No, other than the fact
    that they are shinobi.
[05:00] ---
    This is the weapon
    they used to kill Sakuya.
[05:05] ---
    Is that poison?
[05:08] ---
    I've seen the same thing before.
[05:10] ---
    Huh?!
[05:11] ---
    It was when a VIP from
    the Hidden Cloud was assassinated.
[05:15] ---
    Shinobi from the Land of Haze used
    the same kind of poison.
[05:19] ---
    So they're shinobi from
    the Land of Haze?!
[05:28] ---
    If Haze shinobi stole
    the Hashirama Cell,
[05:32] ---
    and it gets into
    the hands of evildoers…
[05:35] ---
    Or some kinda mad scientist…
[05:40] ---
    This could turn into
    something really bad!
[05:42] ---
    No, not just that!
[05:44] ---
    What do we do if the cell
    drastically starts multiplying?
[05:48] ---
    Even if we retrieve it,
[05:49] ---
    it could continue to multiply
    until finally, it explodes!
[05:54] ---
    If that happens,
    there's no controlling it!
[05:57] ---
    Oh, man.
[05:58] ---
    It's starting…
[06:00] ---
    Mr. Omoi's going into
    a frantic thought spiral…
[06:02] ---
    Huh?
[06:03] ---
    That was a thought spiral?
[06:05] ---
    That's not what it is!
[06:06] ---
    It's fact that rumors about
    the Hashirama Cell
[06:08] ---
    are spreading like wildfire!
[06:10] ---
    Hordes of shinobi from around
    the world might be on their way.
[06:14] ---
    If that happens, this could turn
    into something really bad!
[06:17] ---
    No, what's "really bad" is
    your negative thinking, Mr. Omoi.
[06:22] ---
    He's such a worrywart.
[06:25] ---
    He's worse than a worrywart,
    don't you think?
[06:27] ---
    I think an explosion is
    a bit far-fetched.
[06:30] ---
    Normally, in situations like this,
[06:31] ---
    you have to think about
    worst-case scenarios!
[06:33] ---
    So, if things escalate, you can
    keep calm and deal with them!
[06:39] ---
    – Yeah, yeah.
    – Yeah, yeah.
[06:41] ---
    In the first place,
    the Hashirama Cell
[06:43] ---
    has been under
    the Hidden Leaf's supervision.
[06:45] ---
    It hasn't been determined
    how other people got a hold of it,
[06:50] ---
    but we have to recover it,
    no matter what.
[06:52] ---
    If that's how it is,
    we'll help you.
[06:55] ---
    It's safe to believe that
    the Haze shinobi are planning
[06:58] ---
    to take the Hashirama Cell
    back to their land.
[07:01] ---
    Which means the shortest route
    back home for them
[07:03] ---
    is over the mountains.
[07:06] ---
    About that…
[07:07] ---
    Apparently, if the Hashirama Cell
    is stimulated in any way,
[07:10] ---
    it runs the risk of
    going out of control.
[07:12] ---
    So, I don't think they would choose
    the mountainous route.
[07:15] ---
    I see.
[07:16] ---
    Then…
[07:18] ---
    it's highly probable
    they took that road.
[07:37] ---
    No signs of the Hashirama Cell
    going out of control right now.
[07:41] ---
    Yeah.
[07:47] ---
    No sign of any pursuers either.
[07:49] ---
    The Leaf shinobi probably
    got trapped, just like we planned.
[07:54] ---
    Let's hurry while
    we still have the chance.
[08:29] ---
    Move.
[08:30] ---
    Who are you?
[08:32] ---
    Are you here to steal
    the castle's treasures?
[08:35] ---
    Sorry, but it belongs to us.
[08:37] ---
    If you get it, leave now!
[08:40] ---
    Just move.
[08:42] ---
    What?!
[08:44] ---
    Didn't you hear us?!
[08:46] ---
    What a pain!
[08:48] ---
    Just get 'em.
[08:50] ---
    You really are fools who
    just can't listen, aren't you?
[08:58] ---
    You should've just obediently
    listened to me.
[09:01] ---
    Then you wouldn't have had to die.
[09:23] ---
    There's no point in lingering here
    any longer, huh?
[09:49] ---
    Here, take these!
[09:52] ---
    I have no interest
    in things like that.
[09:56] ---
    I want to ask you something,
[09:59] ---
    Where's the Hashirama Cell?
[10:05] ---
    You know what will happen
    if you don't tell me, right?
[10:09] ---
    It was stolen!
[10:11] ---
    By whom?
[10:13] ---
    Hidden Leaf shinobi stole it along
    with the treasures and ran off.
[10:19] ---
    And where are they now?
[10:22] ---
    They're not here anymore.
[10:24] ---
    Word is that they used
    an underground route to escape.
[10:27] ---
    I see!
[10:56] ---
    Be careful, Hiruga!
[10:58] ---
    If the Hashirama Cell goes
    out of control here,
[11:01] ---
    our mission is over!
[11:03] ---
    I'm sorry!
[11:05] ---
    At the rate we're going,
[11:06] ---
    it will take a while
    to get to the border.
[11:09] ---
    Want to switch?
[11:10] ---
    Yeah, thanks, Asaka.
[11:17] ---
    As long as we cross our border,
[11:19] ---
    they can't come after us.
[11:22] ---
    Yeah…
[11:23] ---
    The Hashirama Cell
    will help our nation.
[11:26] ---
    We have to get it home safely,
    at any cost!
[11:31] ---
    For Yoruga too.
[11:53] ---
    His sacrifice will not be in vain!
[12:07] ---
    So, what happens when
    the Hashirama Cell
[12:09] ---
    is transplanted into someone?
[12:10] ---
    A part of their body starts
    turning into wood.
[12:18] ---
    The power of the Hashirama Cell
    is frightening.
[12:21] ---
    Whoever gets their hands on it…
[12:22] ---
    What about it?
[12:31] ---
    Who's there?!
[12:45] ---
    I finally found you.
[12:48] ---
    It took a while to get information
    back in that village, but…
[12:51] ---
    You're the shinobi from
    the Hidden Leaf?
[12:54] ---
    How clever of you to use
    an underground route to escape.
[12:58] ---
    It's one after another!
[13:00] ---
    Who are you?
[13:03] ---
    Introductions are unnecessary.
[13:12] ---
    What does that mean?!
[13:14] ---
    Let's just say that every person until
    now who has seen my face, is dead.
[13:19] ---
    You've just seen my face,
    so I'll be killing you as well.
[13:24] ---
    No one who knows
    of my existence, lives.
[13:27] ---
    That's why introductions
    are unnecessary.
[13:31] ---
    I was completely
    under the impression
[13:33] ---
    that you had the Hashirama Cell.
[13:35] ---
    But it seems that's not the case.
[13:38] ---
    You think you can take us on
    by yourself?
[13:41] ---
    Stop looking down
    on Hidden Leaf shinobi!
[13:43] ---
    But if we all fight him…
[13:45] ---
    Leave this to us.
[13:48] ---
    You guys continue pursuing them.
[13:49] ---
    "Them"?
[13:51] ---
    I see, so you know who has it.
[13:56] ---
    It's fine, so just hurry up and go!
[13:58] ---
    We leave him to you, Mr. Omoi!
[14:00] ---
    Just take care of this guy quickly
    and catch up to us!
[14:04] ---
    Mr. Omoi, thank you.
[14:06] ---
    Sure.
[14:12] ---
    Let's wrap this up this quick.
[14:14] ---
    If we take too long,
    we may not be able to catch up.
[14:19] ---
    Like, we might not know
    which road to take…
[14:22] ---
    Then, we'll lose them for sure and…
[14:24] ---
    We won't have any clues to go on…
[14:26] ---
    And before we know it,
    we'll get lost and
[14:27] ---
    we might cross a nation's
    borders without permission…
[14:30] ---
    Then we'll be branded as
    wanted criminals in the Bingo Book!
[14:34] ---
    Everything will be fine.
[14:36] ---
    You are so negative!
[14:38] ---
    C'mon. Let's finish this and
    catch up with them.
[14:42] ---
    You guys never take me seriously.
[14:44] ---
    C'mon, let's do this fast!
[14:46] ---
    – Right!
    – Right!
[15:03] ---
    Someone's approaching.
[15:06] ---
    It could be the Leaf shinobi.
[15:07] ---
    Are they close?
[15:10] ---
    No, I can't tell yet.
[15:12] ---
    But they're definitely pursuing us.
[15:15] ---
    We have to cross the national
    border before they catch up.
[15:17] ---
    But if we speed up,
    it'll stimulate the Hashirama Cell…
[15:22] ---
    Asaka, Hiruga…
[15:24] ---
    What is it?
[15:25] ---
    About our pursuers.
[15:26] ---
    At this rate, they're going to
    catch us eventually.
[15:29] ---
    If that happens,
[15:30] ---
    we won't be able to fulfill
    our mission for our nation.
[15:33] ---
    Let me stay back to stop them.
[15:36] ---
    Yuuga—!
[15:39] ---
    It's my turn now.
[15:42] ---
    I'll do whatever it takes
    to stop them.
[15:50] ---
    I understand.
[15:54] ---
    Well said, Yuuga.
[15:56] ---
    We'll complete this mission
    without fail.
[15:59] ---
    Please take care of things here.
[16:02] ---
    We live…
[16:05] ---
    – …for the sake of the mission!
    – …for the sake of the mission!
[16:12] ---
    So fast!
[16:14] ---
    This guy's not
    your run-of-the-mill opponent.
[16:16] ---
    That's for sure.
[16:17] ---
    Don't let down your guard.
[16:19] ---
    If you do, you're dead.
[16:20] ---
    For once, I agree with Mr. Omoi.
[16:23] ---
    Yeah, for sure.
[16:44] ---
    I'm not letting you get away.
[16:50] ---
    Oh, my!
[17:08] ---
    All right!
[17:09] ---
    Got him!
[17:09] ---
    Let's go!
[17:16] ---
    What?!
[17:17] ---
    It didn't work?
[17:20] ---
    Marui! Kakui!
[17:21] ---
    Withdraw!
[17:31] ---
    Marui! Kakui!
[17:34] ---
    This is getting a little more fun.
[17:37] ---
    Who are you?!
[17:47] ---
    Both roads look flat and easy.
[17:57] ---
    We have to find some clues that
    point us to which path they took.
[18:00] ---
    Hey, look at this!
[18:06] ---
    The grass has been stepped on.
[18:08] ---
    I think they took this road.
[18:14] ---
    I don't see any other tracks.
[18:17] ---
    Knowing that…
[18:27] ---
    Let me have a little more fun!
[18:30] ---
    Lightning attacks
    don't work either.
[18:31] ---
    He's countering my sword
    with just his fists!
[18:38] ---
    Ordinary methods won't work
    on this guy.
[18:46] ---
    Cloud Style: Deception Slice!
[18:51] ---
    I knew it. He doesn't have
    any weaknesses, huh?
[18:54] ---
    Is that all you've got?
[18:57] ---
    Cloud Style:
[18:58] ---
    Back Slice!
[19:02] ---
    He countered that too, huh?
[19:06] ---
    Then…how about this?!
[19:08] ---
    Cloud Style: Crescent Moon Slice!
[19:17] ---
    That has no effect on me.
[19:20] ---
    Not much longer now.
[19:22] ---
    Just as he's getting used to
    thwarting my sword in succession,
[19:25] ---
    I'll—
[19:27] ---
    Reverse Mist Slice!
[19:31] ---
    How's that?!
[19:33] ---
    You can't tell where the blade
    will appear, can you?!
[19:39] ---
    I'm just getting started!
[19:43] ---
    Such child's play!
[19:50] ---
    Was that all just a diversion?
[19:52] ---
    I'll use this jutsu that Lord Bee
    personally taught me…
[19:55] ---
    My Personal Style:
    Reverse Mist Slice!
[20:03] ---
    I guess it's about time
    I got serious.
[20:06] ---
    No way, even after all this time?!
[20:13] ---
    I wonder what's taking
    Mr. Omoi and the others?
[20:15] ---
    That guy that showed up…
    was kinda strange.
[20:19] ---
    Yeah.
[20:20] ---
    I wonder who he is?
[20:22] ---
    One thing's for sure,
    he's after the Hashirama Cell.
[20:26] ---
    He said to leave 'em to us…
[20:29] ---
    But Mr. Omoi's super negative…
[20:31] ---
    What if he's still
    muttering nonsense?
[20:33] ---
    Hey, you guys!
[20:34] ---
    Just focus on what
    you have to do, okay?
[20:37] ---
    Right now, think only about
    going after the Hashirama Cell.
[20:40] ---
    I know that!
[20:56] ---
    They got here
    faster than I expected.
[20:59] ---
    I can't believe they got away
    from all those pursuers.
[21:07] ---
    But I won't let them
    proceed any further.
[21:11] ---
    No matter what I have to do.
[21:29] ---
    It's you!
[21:34] ---
    You framed us!
[21:36] ---
    You're shinobi
    from the Haze, right?
[21:39] ---
    How sharp of you.
[21:42] ---
    What's more, I'm not letting you
    go after my older brothers.
[21:46] ---
    What?!
[21:47] ---
    We're not handing over
    the Hashirama Cell.
[21:50] ---
    You die here.
[23:27] ---
    I'm not letting you proceed any further.
[23:30] ---
    Is he the Haze shinobi?
[23:32] ---
    Are you the only one here?
[23:34] ---
    Are you trying to take on
    all five of us on your own?
[23:36] ---
    Well…
[23:37] ---
    Under normal conditions,
    it might be futile.
[23:40] ---
    But I wish you wouldn't
    look down on me.
[23:43] ---
    Next time on Boruto:
    Naruto Next Generations:
SIGN    THE FORBIDDEN
    JUTSU OF DEATH
[23:46] ---
    "The Forbidden Jutsu of Death"
[23:47] ---
    What's going on?
    What is this jutsu?!
