**[00:04] ---**
Boruto, where are we?
**[00:07] ---**
I don't know!
**[00:09] ---**
I figured if I used the Karma,
**[00:11] ---**
I could whisk us away to another dimension
**[00:13] ---**
just like how the Otsutsuki do.
**[00:18] ---**
Damn it!
**[00:19] ---**
I guess you got that
"act first, think later" attitude
**[00:21] ---**
from me, huh?
**[00:22] ---**
His lifespan should only last
about two days...
**[00:25] ---**
Do everything we can to prevent him
from leaving this place!
**[00:29] ---**
Amado told you that, didn't he?
**[00:31] ---**
How foolish.
**[00:32] ---**
He needs to be appropriately punished.
**[00:36] ---**
But before I do that...
**[00:46] ---**
Naruto, above you!
**[00:48] ---**
Momoshiki's Vessel, Boruto Uzumaki...
**[00:52] ---**
Your Otsutsukification has
progressed further than I expected.
**[00:56] ---**
It's already 70...
maybe even 80 percent complete.
**[01:01] ---**
How much power hides within you?
**[01:04] ---**
Show me!
**[01:09] ---**
Chidori!
**[01:13] ---**
Boruto!
**[01:15] ---**
That detestable Rinnegan...
**[01:18] ---**
You're in the way.
**[01:23] ---**
I never thought you would be
the one to impede me,
**[01:26] ---**
Boruto Uzumaki.
**[01:31] ---**
I could easily go back using
Transportation Ninjutsu,
**[01:34] ---**
but we'll just continue
going back and forth.
**[01:37] ---**
I should just
get rid of you all here,
**[01:40] ---**
where no one else can interfere.
**[01:42] ---**
Then, I can take my time
looking for Kawaki later.
**[01:45] ---**
With the Hokage and the Uchiha dead,
**[01:48] ---**
the people of the village will surrender
**[01:50] ---**
and willingly divulge where Kawaki's located.
**[01:53] ---**
Don't underestimate us, ya know!
**[01:55] ---**
Things aren't gonna go that easily!
**[03:34] ---**
*You have nothing...*
**[03:36] ---**
*You are empty...*
**[03:38] ---**
*And more than anything,
you loathe your empty self.*
**[03:42] ---**
*There is a hole in your heart.*
**[03:45] ---**
*Nothing you gain will ever fill it.*
**[03:48] ---**
*It will only just spill through that hole.*
**[03:52] ---**
*That's precisely why
I bestowed the Karma upon you.*
**[03:55] ---**
*It's the only thing that
can fill your punctured heart...*
**[04:01] ---**
*It's a special mark.*
**[04:09] ---**
You awake?
**[04:11] ---**
Amado!
**[04:13] ---**
You're finally awake, huh?
**[04:15] ---**
Where am I?
**[04:16] ---**
While you were out,
**[04:18] ---**
Isshiki revived and
showed up here in the Leaf
**[04:21] ---**
to find you.
**[04:23] ---**
Don't worry.
**[04:24] ---**
This place is safe for now.
**[04:27] ---**
The Hokage and the others are above
fighting to take him down.
**[04:31] ---**
Technically, they're not above us.
**[04:33] ---**
Lord Shikamaru!
**[04:35] ---**
Naruto and Sasuke followed Isshiki
into another dimension.
**[04:39] ---**
It seems that Boruto dragged Isshiki there
**[04:41] ---**
using Transportation Ninjutsu.
**[04:44] ---**
The Young Lord did that?!
**[04:45] ---**
The Sensory Team is doing
everything they can
**[04:47] ---**
to track their whereabouts.
**[04:50] ---**
Damn it!
**[04:52] ---**
What do you think you're doing?
**[04:53] ---**
Isn't it obvious?!
**[04:55] ---**
I'm going after them with my Karma!
**[04:56] ---**
Calm down and look closely.
**[05:01] ---**
It's gone!
**[05:03] ---**
There's no trace of my Karma!
**[05:05] ---**
Your Karma was meant
for Isshiki's resurrection.
**[05:10] ---**
However, he resurrected using
Jigen's Karma instead.
**[05:14] ---**
Just as Koji and I had schemed.
**[05:17] ---**
And once resurrection occurs,
all other Karma get deleted.
**[05:22] ---**
In other words, you're no longer his Vessel.
**[05:26] ---**
You are officially free.
**[05:30] ---**
The reason why he came
to the Leaf was so that
**[05:32] ---**
he could implant another Karma into me,
**[05:36] ---**
right?
**[05:37] ---**
Yeah, that's right.
**[05:40] ---**
Then I'm not officially free.
**[05:43] ---**
Gimme a break.
**[05:45] ---**
Lord Seventh and the others
are desperately fighting
**[05:47] ---**
to prevent that from happening.
**[05:50] ---**
For now, let's be patient
and have faith in them.
**[05:52] ---**
But they're facing a monster
worse than Jigen, right?
**[05:57] ---**
Monster he may be...
**[05:58] ---**
But he's one the God of Death
already has his eye on.
**[06:02] ---**
He only has about one or two days left...
**[06:05] ---**
Even a monster can't escape death.
**[06:09] ---**
If we can avoid him
**[06:11] ---**
implanting you with another Karma
before his life runs out,
**[06:15] ---**
we win.
**[06:46] ---**
Chidori!
**[06:48] ---**
*Got him!*
**[07:08] ---**
Dad!
**[07:11] ---**
Naruto!
**[07:12] ---**
Only my shadow clone was hit!
**[07:15] ---**
Anyway, be careful!
**[07:16] ---**
I've lost sight of him!
**[07:25] ---**
Sasuke!
**[07:29] ---**
Dad!
**[07:45] ---**
You bastard!
**[07:48] ---**
Rasengan!
**[07:52] ---**
Damn it!
**[08:06] ---**
You bastard!
**[08:25] ---**
I'll get you all, one at a time.
**[08:27] ---**
You're up first.
**[08:44] ---**
Next up...
**[08:51] ---**
Mr. Sasuke!
**[08:53] ---**
Are you okay?
**[08:54] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[08:56] ---**
Hold on a second.
I'll get these rocks off you!
**[09:22] ---**
Honestly, when it comes
to the both of you...
**[09:25] ---**
Like father, like son...
**[09:27] ---**
I figured you would do that.
**[09:30] ---**
My plan won't be diverted
even one millimeter.
**[09:34] ---**
His plan?
**[09:36] ---**
Still, even if his life is
coming to an end,
**[09:39] ---**
they've lost to him before.
**[09:41] ---**
Even if it is Lord Seventh and
the others we're talking about,
**[09:43] ---**
will they be able to hold
him off for two days?
**[09:46] ---**
Looking at their raw strength,
I can see why you'd be concerned.
**[09:49] ---**
But it's not as if they don't have a chance.
**[09:52] ---**
However, this all depends on
whether Boruto has become aware
**[09:56] ---**
of what his *potential value*
against Isshiki is.
**[10:00] ---**
Don't move from that spot... Sasuke Uchiha.
**[10:04] ---**
That being said, I don't think you can.
**[10:09] ---**
Mr. Sasuke!
**[10:25] ---**
What do you mean by "potential value"?
**[10:28] ---**
As I said earlier,
the Ten Tails is the seedling
**[10:31] ---**
necessary for growing a Divine Tree,
**[10:34] ---**
but this is no ordinary planting, of course.
**[10:37] ---**
You can't just bury it in soil
and add water.
**[10:40] ---**
For Ten Tails to become a Divine Tree,
**[10:42] ---**
there is one special condition
that must be met...
**[10:44] ---**
A very special requirement
that must be fulfilled.
**[11:13] ---**
Why did you stop?
**[11:15] ---**
That was your chance...
**[11:17] ---**
to kill both of us at once.
**[11:19] ---**
Damn you.
**[11:22] ---**
I knew it...
**[11:24] ---**
So, I was right.
**[11:27] ---**
You can't kill me, can you?
**[11:31] ---**
What do you mean by that, Boruto?
**[11:34] ---**
Boro mentioned something before.
**[11:36] ---**
That thanks to me,
**[11:38] ---**
the time limit on their plan
might as well been lifted.
**[11:44] ---**
Their plan?
**[11:45] ---**
The one involving the Divine Tree
that Amado mentioned?
**[11:49] ---**
That's probably it.
**[11:50] ---**
They plan to use me as part of that plan.
**[11:55] ---**
In other words,
**[11:57] ---**
he can't afford to have me die!
**[12:00] ---**
A special requirement?
**[12:02] ---**
Quit stalling and just spill it.
**[12:08] ---**
You need to feed the Ten Tails...
**[12:12] ---**
a living Otsutsuki.
**[12:18] ---**
Kunai are useless.
**[12:19] ---**
Don't move!
**[12:21] ---**
Don't even move a finger.
**[12:24] ---**
I won't hesitate to do it.
**[12:26] ---**
Boruto!
**[12:28] ---**
Is that supposed to be a threat?
**[12:31] ---**
If you think I won't go through
with it, you're wrong.
**[12:35] ---**
I've been prepared,
**[12:38] ---**
ever since the moment I entered this battle!
**[12:43] ---**
You bastard!
**[12:46] ---**
Run, Boruto!
**[12:48] ---**
But Mr. Sasuke!
**[12:49] ---**
Our only choice is to wait
until his life runs out!
**[12:53] ---**
Try to buy us enough time until—
**[12:59] ---**
Mr. Sasuke!
**[13:06] ---**
You have to feed the Ten Tails an Otsutsuki?
**[13:09] ---**
That's right.
**[13:10] ---**
That's the only way
**[13:12] ---**
the Ten Tails will transform
into the Divine Tree.
**[13:14] ---**
This is the most likely reason
why the Otsutsuki
**[13:19] ---**
invade a planet in pairs.
**[13:22] ---**
One of them becomes a sacrifice, huh?
**[13:24] ---**
One gets eaten to cultivate the Divine Tree
**[13:27] ---**
and the other watches over
and guards the tree's growth...
**[13:30] ---**
Until the Chakra Fruit develops, that is.
**[13:33] ---**
I can't believe they would
sacrifice their own lives
**[13:35] ---**
to obtain this fruit!
**[13:37] ---**
Indeed, it can only be described as bizarre.
**[13:41] ---**
However...
**[13:43] ---**
They have the Karma.
**[13:46] ---**
Precisely!
**[13:48] ---**
The sacrificial Otsutsuki uses Karma
**[13:51] ---**
to prepare a Vessel ahead of time,
for resurrecting later.
**[13:55] ---**
That's what it's for.
**[13:57] ---**
It's convenient.
**[13:59] ---**
Does that mean that Isshiki
and Kaguya intended on doing
**[14:02] ---**
the same thing long ago...?
**[14:03] ---**
Kaguya, being lower ranked,
would have been the sacrifice.
**[14:07] ---**
That was how it was supposed to go.
**[14:10] ---**
But that was stalled
due to Kaguya's betrayal.
**[14:15] ---**
And Isshiki was forced to live
as a parasite inside Jigen's body,
**[14:19] ---**
and go on with the plan without Kaguya.
**[14:22] ---**
By that, you mean that
Isshiki would have to
**[14:26] ---**
feed himself to the Ten Tail
to make the Divine Tree grow?
**[14:29] ---**
That's right...
**[14:30] ---**
Since there were no other Otsutsuki around.
**[14:34] ---**
Oh!
**[14:35] ---**
What's the matter, Sumire?
**[14:36] ---**
Could it be that as a substitute,
Isshiki plans to—?
**[14:42] ---**
Excellent deductive skills,
Miss Sumire Kakei.
**[14:49] ---**
I don't intend on killing you.
**[14:52] ---**
I'll admit that, Boruto Uzumaki.
**[14:56] ---**
However...
**[15:02] ---**
I apologize for any misunderstanding.
**[15:10] ---**
I have no qualms about hurting you.
***SIGN*** 1\fad(1000,1)\pos(534,246)}Sacrifice*
**[15:26] ---**
Didn't you say you were
prepared to die, Boruto Uzumaki?
**[15:30] ---**
That makes things simple.
**[15:33] ---**
I'll let you in on the plan in advance.
**[15:39] ---**
You're going to get eaten...
**[15:42] ---**
by Ten Tails!
**[15:44] ---**
Are you saying Boruto is going
to be Ten Tails' food?!
**[15:48] ---**
That's right.
**[15:50] ---**
According to the Kara's plan,
**[15:51] ---**
Isshiki was going to sacrifice himself.
**[15:55] ---**
Because there were no other options.
**[15:58] ---**
But when Boruto showed up...
**[16:01] ---**
they were given a new choice
to sacrifice him instead.
**[16:05] ---**
Also...
**[16:07] ---**
apparently there are variations
to Chakra Fruit.
**[16:11] ---**
Just as with apples and oranges,
**[16:13] ---**
where a healthy tree will bear good fruit,
**[16:17] ---**
a vigorous Divine Tree will beget
a good Chakra Fruit.
**[16:21] ---**
A young and healthy Otsutsuki
would make better sustenance
**[16:25] ---**
than a decrepit one whose death
is approaching...
**[16:29] ---**
obviously.
**[16:31] ---**
Oh no... Young Lord!
**[16:33] ---**
I now get why he wouldn't
want to kill Boruto.
**[16:37] ---**
But that alone probably won't be enough
**[16:40] ---**
to give us an opportunity to defeat him.
**[16:42] ---**
So, what does Boruto intend to do?
**[16:45] ---**
Who knows?
**[16:46] ---**
We just have to let things play out.
**[16:50] ---**
Hey, Amado!
**[16:51] ---**
Tell me how much of this is going
just as you'd schemed?
**[16:56] ---**
What was that?
**[16:57] ---**
Kawaki!
**[16:58] ---**
If Lord Seventh and the others are defeated,
**[17:00] ---**
you're dead as well.
**[17:02] ---**
So, how come you're not sweating?
**[17:03] ---**
How are you able to sit there
**[17:05] ---**
with such a calm expression on your face?
**[17:07] ---**
I don't really sweat that much usually.
**[17:09] ---**
What the hell kind of an answer is that?!
**[17:11] ---**
Damn it, you brat...
**[17:13] ---**
Why are you so irritable?
**[17:15] ---**
Calm down!
**[17:16] ---**
Taking your anger out on him
won't do any good.
**[17:18] ---**
Is this really the best plan?
**[17:21] ---**
Was there really no other way?
**[17:26] ---**
I simply make what appears to be
**[17:28] ---**
the best choice available to me at the time.
**[17:32] ---**
Just like everyone else.
**[17:34] ---**
What's critical is that you are
always prepared to accept
**[17:38] ---**
whatever result that choice yields,
no matter what it is!
**[17:42] ---**
That Karma you loathed so much is gone.
**[17:46] ---**
Which also makes it possible
to defeat Isshiki.
**[17:50] ---**
Sure, the Hokage and
company's chances are slim,
**[17:55] ---**
but it doesn't change the fact that
this was our one and only prospect.
**[17:59] ---**
I understand the frustration
of being unable to do anything.
**[18:02] ---**
But right now,
**[18:03] ---**
waiting patiently here may be
your best option, Kawaki.
**[18:15] ---**
Is it powerlessness that's irritating you?
**[18:19] ---**
Or is it grief over losing your powers?
**[18:24] ---**
What did you say?!
**[18:25] ---**
Never mind. Forget I said that.
**[18:39] ---**
*What a sorry state you're in, Naruto.*
**[18:42] ---**
*You plan on just dying like this?*
**[18:46] ---**
Shut up.
**[18:47] ---**
I'm the Hokage!
**[18:49] ---**
Protecting the village and everyone
is more important than my life.
**[18:54] ---**
I'll keep clinging to him and never let go,
**[18:59] ---**
not until that bastard's life runs out!
**[19:02] ---**
So, what's your plan against someone
**[19:04] ---**
whose strength is on
an entirely different level?
**[19:09] ---**
So, no real plan, huh?
**[19:15] ---**
Naruto...
**[19:17] ---**
You're really prepared to die, aren't you?
**[19:21] ---**
Yeah...
**[19:22] ---**
I'm sorry, Kurama.
**[19:29] ---**
In that case, there might be a way.
**[19:33] ---**
Really?!
**[19:35] ---**
It's a do or die, last stand,
final secret weapon sort of thing.
**[19:40] ---**
Rather than getting killed disgracefully,
**[19:42] ---**
it's worth giving it a try.
**[19:44] ---**
What—?!
**[19:45] ---**
If you had something like this,
why didn't you say so sooner?
**[19:50] ---**
Because you'll die.
**[19:52] ---**
Do this and it's over.
**[19:57] ---**
But if you don't do it, you'll die anyway.
**[20:01] ---**
Even so, it's not a choice
to be made lightly.
**[20:04] ---**
So, you decide.
**[20:20] ---**
Kurama, I'm counting on you!
**[20:23] ---**
Are you sure?
**[20:24] ---**
Yeah...
**[20:25] ---**
I've been prepared for a long time.
**[20:28] ---**
From the day I became Hokage...
**[20:30] ---**
No, actually...
**[20:32] ---**
ever since I decided I wanted
to be the Hokage!
**[20:43] ---**
You'll be devoured by Ten Tails and die,
**[20:46] ---**
in order to cultivate the Divine Tree.
**[20:49] ---**
But there's no need to despair.
**[20:52] ---**
The Divine Tree shall consume
all life on this planet anyway.
**[20:59] ---**
The only difference lies in *when* you'll die.
**[21:12] ---**
It can't be!
**[21:13] ---**
Is it him?!
**[21:23] ---**
Dad?
**[21:41] ---**
Dad, your appearance—?!
**[21:43] ---**
There's no need to worry anymore, Boruto.
**[21:50] ---**
I'll take him down.
**[23:26] ---**
I never knew he had such a jutsu!
**[23:29] ---**
Naruto, you're not planning on—?!
**[23:32] ---**
How could he still have such
an ace up his sleeve?
**[23:36] ---**
Even still, I'll be the one who wins!
**[23:40] ---**
Next time on Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:
***SIGN*** DECISION
**[23:43] ---**
"Decision"
**[23:44] ---**
Bring it on, Otsutsuki.
**[23:46] ---**
I'll show how serious I really am.
