[00:11] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting, Koji.
[00:18] ---
    Everything's ready now.
[00:20] ---
    Is that all you're taking?
[00:23] ---
    It doesn't look like much.
[00:25] ---
    I only need one section of cell fragments
[00:28] ---
    and the digitized data aggregate.
[00:31] ---
    The work itself can be done
    using their equipment.
[00:36] ---
    That aside...
[00:37] ---
    Looks like we've got ourselves
    a secret weapon.
[00:41] ---
    It's all thanks to the data
    you gathered in the Leaf.
[00:44] ---
    It's always good to have
    a lot of secret weapons.
[00:48] ---
    Especially since our opponent is Jigen.
[00:52] ---
    Shall we get started?
[00:53] ---
    Very well.
[00:57] ---
    Summoning: Steam Toad!
[01:15] ---
    It would be great if they have
    good coffee over there...
[01:23] ---
    Hold on a second!
[01:25] ---
    It doesn't look like you geezers
[01:27] ---
    are going on a friendly little date.
SIGN    1\fad(460,880)\pos(525,236)}Amado's Defection*
[03:05] ---
    Where do you think you're going, Amado?
[03:08] ---
    And without Jigen's permission, no less.
[03:11] ---
    I'm not turning a blind eye...
[03:13] ---
    if you're committing treason!
[03:15] ---
    I'll deal with this, Amado.
[03:17] ---
    Hope you don't mind.
[03:18] ---
    Actually... there's no need to bother.
[03:22] ---
    Time to go to sleep... Delta.
[03:31] ---
    That's... an emergency shutdown code!
[03:36] ---
    Oof, there we go.
[03:38] ---
    All right. I'm ready when you are.
[03:41] ---
    Do it.
[03:47] ---
    When you arrive, stay close
    to the wall and head right.
[03:51] ---
    Good luck.
[03:53] ---
    I wish you luck as well.
[03:58] ---
    Ninja Art: Reverse Summoning.
[04:23] ---
    The air outside is awfully cold.
[04:33] ---
    I suspect I've been similarly programmed.
[04:43] ---
    Expansion Jutsu!
[04:46] ---
    Followed by...
[04:47] ---
    What?
[04:48] ---
    Human Boulder!
[04:51] ---
    Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll!
[04:54] ---
    Everyone! Why don't we break for lunch soon?
[04:56] ---
    Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll!
[04:58] ---
    It's unusual of them to say
    they want to train.

[05:00] ---
    That surprised me...
[05:00] ---
    Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll!
[05:03] ---
    But it seems they're still
    bothered by the fact

[05:07] ---
    that they couldn't catch
    the intruder on their own.

[05:09] ---
    Oh well...
[05:11] ---
    I guess I'll go get them some refreshments.
[05:14] ---
    Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll!
[05:16] ---
    Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll!
[05:21] ---
    Aww!
[05:27] ---
    Ow!
[05:30] ---
    Shadow Paralysis Jutsu.
[05:32] ---
    You let your guard down, Inojin.
[05:34] ---
    This is a battle royal, you know.
[05:38] ---
    The same goes for you too.
[05:40] ---
    Partial Expansion Jutsu!
[05:43] ---
    Oh no!
[05:47] ---
    I really thought you would go after Inojin...
[05:50] ---
    I figured you might think that,
[05:53] ---
    so I read the hidden meaning a little.
[06:00] ---
    A new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho, huh?
[06:03] ---
    Great!
[06:04] ---
    It's my lucky day!
[06:05] ---
    Huh?
[06:06] ---
    Sorry, but could you keep me
    company for a bit?
[06:11] ---
    Huh?
[06:13] ---
    Who are you?
[06:18] ---
    Hey, wait!
[06:20] ---
    Stop right there.
[06:24] ---
    The Hidden Leaf Village is down this way.
[06:27] ---
    What do you want, Old Man?
[06:29] ---
    I'll discuss that directly with
    your father, Shikadai Nara.
[06:36] ---
    I would be obliged if you'd take me to him.
[06:43] ---
    I told you to stop.
[06:45] ---
    You're way too sketchy, Old Man!
[06:55] ---
    What?!
[06:57] ---
    What is he—?!
[06:58] ---
    Is that a Scientific Ninja Tool?!
[07:02] ---
    You're kidding, right?!
[07:03] ---
    He... overpowered my Shadow Paralysis!
[07:06] ---
    Shikadai!
[07:14] ---
    I need you to stay quiet for a little while.
[07:19] ---
    There's no need to worry.
[07:21] ---
    It's a harmless drug.
[07:23] ---
    However...
[07:28] ---
    Whether you survive or not
    depends on your father.
[07:33] ---
    Mom! Can you hear me?!
[07:36] ---
    Inojin?
[07:37] ---
    What's the matter?! Where are you right now?!
[07:39] ---
    We're right outside the village, and Shikadai...
[07:41] ---
    Shikadai is in trouble!
[07:43] ---
    Can you get a hold of Mr. Shikamaru quick?!
[07:47] ---
    I see...
[07:48] ---
    We'll need Kara's technology
[07:51] ---
    in order to repair Kawaki's body, huh?
[07:53] ---
    I'm analyzing it as fast as I can,
[07:56] ---
    but even that is taking a while to do.
[07:59] ---
    But if he continues to use
    that prosthetic arm,
[08:01] ---
    his bodily functions will weaken, right?
[08:04] ---
    Isn't there anything you can do?
[08:05] ---
    As I said before,
    because of its unique structure,
[08:10] ---
    I believe repairs will take much more time...
[08:13] ---
    We can't dawdle like this!
[08:15] ---
    His body won't hold up!
[08:17] ---
    Boruto, don't get so worked up.
[08:20] ---
    It's not like I'm going to die.
[08:21] ---
    But still—!
[08:23] ---
    Shikamaru! Can you hear me?
[08:25] ---
    It's an emergency!
[08:26] ---
    What's the matter, Ino?
[08:28] ---
    Shikamaru, stay calm and just listen to me.
[08:31] ---
    Shikadai was captured by a man
[08:33] ---
    who claims to be a member of the Kara.
[08:36] ---
    A bomb has been attached to his neck.
[08:39] ---
    Sai and the others are hurrying
    to the scene right now.

[08:42] ---
    What did you say?!
[08:44] ---
    The man's name is Amado.
[08:46] ---
    He wants to talk to you.
[08:50] ---
    Hey, Shikamaru?
[09:01] ---
    Sensei!
[09:06] ---
    Who are you?!
[09:07] ---
    He did that to Shikadai
    in the blink of an eye!
[09:11] ---
    Let go of the child!
[09:13] ---
    Moegi Kazamatsuri, huh?
[09:15] ---
    What?!
[09:16] ---
    How do you know my name?
[09:18] ---
    Sorry, but I have no intention
    of talking to you.
[09:20] ---
    Please just stay quiet over there.
[09:22] ---
    I'm gonna have you stay quiet!
[09:25] ---
    Earth Style: Gravel!
[09:31] ---
    Moegi, stop!
[09:33] ---
    I've restrained his arms and legs.
[09:34] ---
    How nice of the Anbu
    Black Ops to finally drop in,
[09:37] ---
    Sai Yamanaka.
[09:39] ---
    Listen very carefully, okay?
[09:42] ---
    You see what's hanging from
    the tree branch behind me?
[09:49] ---
    It's the same thing
    that's around Shikadai's neck.
[09:54] ---
    I'm going to trigger it
    to detonate right now.
[09:57] ---
    Without being able to move at all.
[10:01] ---
    What did you say?!
[10:04] ---
    Boom.
[10:11] ---
    Do you get it now?
[10:13] ---
    There's no point in restraining me.
[10:15] ---
    Furthermore,
[10:17] ---
    Shikadai's collar is set
    to automatically detonate
[10:21] ---
    in roughly 48 hours.
[10:25] ---
    I'm the only one who can disarm it.
[10:28] ---
    In other words...
[10:29] ---
    I don't recommend killing me.
[10:33] ---
    Moegi!
[10:35] ---
    Release your jutsu and let him go.
[10:42] ---
    Let's hear your demands.
[10:44] ---
    Talk.
[10:47] ---
    Before I do that...
[10:49] ---
    I just want to apologize
    for the circumstances
[10:51] ---
    that forced me to take
    such drastic measures.
[10:54] ---
    Forgive me.
[10:56] ---
    I wasn't intending on hurting anyone.
[10:59] ---
    But time is of the essence.
[11:03] ---
    Sorry, but I'm not feeling
    very trusting right now.
[11:07] ---
    I don't care about your opinions.
[11:09] ---
    Like I said, there's no time.
[11:12] ---
    Let me speak to Shikamaru Nara.
[11:15] ---
    Hurry!
[11:16] ---
    I'm listening, Old Man.
[11:18] ---
    Who are you?
[11:20] ---
    Oh?
[11:22] ---
    So, this is the Yamanaka Clan's
    jutsu that I've heard all about.
[11:25] ---
    How convenient.
[11:27] ---
    You don't have time, right?
[11:29] ---
    Cut the chit-chat.
[11:31] ---
    Why do you want me?
[11:36] ---
    Normally, this is something
    I would ask the Hokage directly,
[11:41] ---
    but I felt it was only proper that
    I run it by his advisor first.
[11:46] ---
    And besides, after the
    Hokage's defeat by Jigen,
[11:49] ---
    I'm sure he must be unavailable.
[11:51] ---
    And I hear you're the one
[11:53] ---
    with decision-making authority
    in such situations.
[11:56] ---
    That's why.
[11:58] ---
    He knows that Jigen took down Naruto...
[12:02] ---
    At the very least,
    it seems like he wasn't lying

[12:06] ---
    about being a member of Kara...
[12:08] ---
    Ino!
[12:09] ---
    I'm with Naruto and Dr. Katasuke right now...
[12:12] ---
    Can you link everyone so we can talk?
[12:15] ---
    You make it sound like it's easy!
[12:17] ---
    All right, just leave it to me.
[12:19] ---
    You said your name was Amado, right?
[12:22] ---
    I'll let you in on something.
[12:23] ---
    Our Hokage is already back in action.
[12:27] ---
    He's standing right next to me.
[12:29] ---
    What?
[12:30] ---
    His ability to recover is greater
    than I had heard.
[12:33] ---
    Is it the power of the Nine Tails?
[12:35] ---
    That voice!
[12:37] ---
    It's Amado!
[12:38] ---
    What is he doing here?
[12:39] ---
    I'm Naruto Uzumaki, the Seventh Hokage.
[12:43] ---
    Tell me, what do you want with the Leaf?
[12:46] ---
    Why if it isn't Lord Hokage.
[12:48] ---
    I'm glad you're in good health.
[12:51] ---
    This makes it worth risking
    my life to come here.
[12:56] ---
    Let me get to the point.
[12:58] ---
    I, Amado...
[13:01] ---
    wish to defect to the Leaf.
[13:04] ---
    What?!
[13:06] ---
    In return, I shall provide you with intel
[13:10] ---
    on Kara, Jigen...
    the Ten Tails... and the Otsutsuki.

[13:14] ---
    I'll share everything I know.
[13:20] ---
    The intel I possess should be
    extremely beneficial to you.
[13:27] ---
    If the Leaf accepts my defection,
[13:30] ---
    then I shall offer all of it
    to you willingly.
[13:32] ---
    And of course, I will release Shikadai.
[13:35] ---
    Now then, think it over and decide quickly.
[13:40] ---
    Time isn't on our side.
[13:42] ---
    Damn it!
[13:43] ---
    There's no way we can trust him!
[13:48] ---
    By defection,
[13:49] ---
    does it mean he ran away from the Kara?
[13:52] ---
    I don't know what happened,
[13:55] ---
    but if he wants the Leaf to shelter him,
[13:57] ---
    does it mean his life is in danger?
[13:59] ---
    He ran away from Kara?
[14:02] ---
    Amado's betrayed Kara?
[14:04] ---
    This doesn't make any sense.
[14:06] ---
    What is happening?
[14:10] ---
    All right... Fine!
[14:12] ---
    Sai, restrain Amado and bring him in.
[14:15] ---
    I'll interrogate him at my office.
[14:18] ---
    Naruto, are you serious?!
[14:20] ---
    In order to save Shikadai,
    we have no other choice.
[14:24] ---
    There's no time to think about it.
[14:26] ---
    We'll decide whether he's trustworthy or not
[14:28] ---
    after listening to what he has to say.
[14:31] ---
    I guess that means
    you've prepared for the worst.
[14:35] ---
    It's quite impressive you would
    do this for a single shinobi.
[14:38] ---
    I'm sure you already know,
    but I'll say it anyway.
[14:41] ---
    Don't do anything funny...
[14:44] ---
    It won't end well for either of us.
[14:47] ---
    Of course.
[14:48] ---
    You won't regret this.
[14:50] ---
    I promise you.
[15:11] ---
    It's been quite a while, hasn't it?
[15:14] ---
    What of your mission?
[15:16] ---
    It's still in progress... Lord Jigen.
[15:20] ---
    Even as we speak.
[15:23] ---
    Have a seat.
[15:25] ---
    Let's hear your report.
[15:32] ---
    Shikadai...
[15:45] ---
    You could offer your visitor
    a cup of coffee at the very least.
[15:49] ---
    It's going to be a long story,
[15:51] ---
    so I'd like to clear my head before I start.
[15:54] ---
    Don't push your luck.
[15:56] ---
    Just be grateful you're sitting in a chair.
[15:59] ---
    Didn't I tell you earlier that
    restraining me is pointless?
[16:03] ---
    If you want, I can blow up
    Shikadai's head right now.
[16:11] ---
    You bastard!
[16:13] ---
    I'm gonna kill you!
[16:17] ---
    Stop, Shikamaru!
[16:18] ---
    What's that gonna accomplish?
[16:20] ---
    This isn't like you!
[16:26] ---
    Just get to the point,
[16:29] ---
    before I run out of patience!
[16:33] ---
    When it comes to your son,
    you're just a father, huh?
[16:38] ---
    The ex-general in you would be disappointed.
[16:40] ---
    That's enough!
[16:43] ---
    My patience won't last very long either.
[16:48] ---
    What's with that bastard?
[16:50] ---
    Does he have any intention of talking?!
[16:52] ---
    I bet you this is all a trap!
[16:55] ---
    Amado...
[16:56] ---
    He's the head of Kara's Research
    and Development Division.
[17:00] ---
    It's not an exaggeration to say
[17:02] ---
    that he knows everything about Kara.
[17:04] ---
    Jigen's never granted him leave to go out.
[17:09] ---
    The fact that he's here
[17:10] ---
    is an act of treason
    that will incur Jigen's wrath.
[17:13] ---
    I bet Amado's come here prepared to die.
[17:16] ---
    That's how I see it.
[17:18] ---
    The head of R&D?
[17:20] ---
    Does that mean he was the one
    who modified your body?
[17:24] ---
    Yeah... that's him.
[17:28] ---
    And not just me.
[17:29] ---
    Every one of the Kara's cyborgs
    were created by him.
[17:33] ---
    Amazing! So, he's the genius scientist!
[17:36] ---
    I-If his defection is approved...
[17:40] ---
    I'd love to have him exert
    his skills at my lab!
[17:46] ---
    Hold on a minute, Doctor!
[17:47] ---
    But it would be to Kawaki's benefit too!
[17:51] ---
    That's true, but...
[17:54] ---
    What the hell are you plotting...
[17:57] ---
    Amado?!
[17:59] ---
    First, start sharing that intel of yours.
[18:03] ---
    Even just a part of it is fine.
[18:06] ---
    Whether we approve your request
    for asylum or not comes after.
[18:10] ---
    You're coming on quite strong,
    aren't you, Lord Hokage?
[18:13] ---
    Do you even care if Shikadai dies?
[18:16] ---
    You won't do that.
[18:18] ---
    There's no way.
[18:20] ---
    If you did, our negotiations would
    breakdown and you would die.
[18:24] ---
    You wouldn't do that after coming this far.
[18:27] ---
    If the Leaf turns me away,
    I'll have nowhere to go.
[18:31] ---
    Even if I manage to get away from here,
[18:33] ---
    I could never escape from Jigen.
[18:36] ---
    I'm dead either way.
[18:38] ---
    You'll accept my demands, no matter what.
[18:41] ---
    I still want to hear your story.
[18:45] ---
    Don't worry.
[18:47] ---
    I won't pull a dirty trick like
    betraying you after we talk.
[18:51] ---
    I give you my word as Hokage.
[19:04] ---
    The Hokage, huh?
[19:07] ---
    Fine.
[19:09] ---
    Let's begin.
[19:13] ---
    But before that...
[19:15] ---
    I have a transmission from a friend.
[19:17] ---
    What?!
[19:19] ---
    Sorry, Shikamaru...
[19:21] ---
    Could you put my glasses
    on the edge of that table
[19:24] ---
    and aim them towards that wall?
[19:26] ---
    What did you say?
[19:27] ---
    Don't worry!
[19:29] ---
    I truly want this negotiation to go well.
[19:34] ---
    So, hurry and do as I ask.
[19:37] ---
    Shikamaru...
[19:51] ---
    What's that?!
[19:53] ---
    Something is being projected on the wall!
[19:59] ---
    Koji Kashin...
[20:00] ---
    Is he the masked man that
[20:03] ---
    Konohamaru said could use the Rasengan?!
[20:06] ---
    Koji Kashin.
[20:08] ---
    He's my one and only collaborator
    within Kara.
[20:13] ---
    He is sharing what his Scout Toad
    is seeing in real time.
[20:20] ---
    This is in real time?
[20:23] ---
    Where are they?
[20:25] ---
    Just keep watching.
[20:28] ---
    You would never make a move
    unless Amado wanted you to.

[20:33] ---
    Which means you conspired
    with him to crash that airship.

[20:39] ---
    In order to let Kawaki escape...
[20:42] ---
    They let me escape?
[20:44] ---
    Koji Kashin and Amado?!
[20:46] ---
    What's going on?
[20:54] ---
    It's Jigen!
[20:56] ---
    That's Jigen?
[20:58] ---
    I want to know your motives...
[21:01] ---
    Both yours and Amado's.
[21:03] ---
    What do you gain by revolting against me?
[21:07] ---
    I'm very curious about that.
[21:09] ---
    You pretend to act composed,
[21:12] ---
    but you can't hide your ragged breathing.
[21:15] ---
    What?
[21:27] ---
    I won't kill you right away.
[21:30] ---
    I'm going to make you spill everything first.
[21:36] ---
    How impudent!
[21:38] ---
    A Shadow Clone, huh?
[21:40] ---
    My motive? It's quite simple.
[21:46] ---
    Right from the very beginning...
[21:49] ---
    I was created to kill you.
[23:26] ---
    Created to kill me?
[23:28] ---
    Indeed. That is my supreme objective.
[23:31] ---
    And my reason for existing.
[23:33] ---
    You're a pathetic man.
[23:35] ---
    You're just Amado's creation.
    A conveniently moveable pawn.
[23:40] ---
    You're nothing more than
    a tool being used by Amado.
[23:43] ---
    Next time on Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:
[23:46] ---
    "True Identity"
SIGN    TRUE IDENTITY
[23:47] ---
    I'm fine with being a tool.
    For that's what shinobi are!
