[00:06] ---
    The final round will be a one-on-one battle.
[00:10] ---
    In other words, you'll have to
    fight each other.
[00:14] ---
    A one-on-one battle?
[00:15] ---
    Only the winners
    will get to become a chunin.
[00:19] ---
    This means only half of you
    will become chunin.
[00:23] ---
    No way!
[00:26] ---
    Just when we thought we'd become chunin,
[00:28] ---
    they're gonna make us fight each other.
[00:31] ---
    There's no way we'd let you become
    a chunin that easily, right?
[00:35] ---
    Damn it! What a cruel way of doing things.
[00:38] ---
    I have one question.
[00:41] ---
    Are you going to tell us today
    who we'll be going up against?
[00:47] ---
    Are you planning to analyze your opponent?
[00:50] ---
    The final round...
[00:52] ---
    ...has already begun.
[00:57] ---
    In this round, you will be judged
    on your ability to
[00:59] ---
    adapt the situation and formulate
    an appropriate response.
[01:01] ---
    Your opponent will be announced
    on the day of your match.
[01:04] ---
    You're free to spend tomorrow
    resting or training.
[01:11] ---
    Prepare in any way you like.

    the Final Round*
[02:46] ---
    I have failed!
[02:49] ---
    Are you all right?
[02:53] ---
    Man, I thought I was gonna be a chunin today.
[02:56] ---
    Well, I had a feeling that
    it wouldn't be over yet.
[03:01] ---
    Anyways, I can't afford to do
    anything uncool from this point on.
[03:04] ---
    Also, this is starting to feel kind of fun.
[03:08] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[03:12] ---
    I've been through all sorts of experiences.
[03:15] ---
    I want to show my dad and everyone else
[03:19] ---
    how much I've matured
    since the last Chunin Exam.
[03:22] ---
    And that I've become more than strong enough.
[03:25] ---
    Such confident words!
[03:27] ---
    Then how do you feel?!
[03:30] ---
    It's true, the Chunin Exam is important.
[03:33] ---
    But this is just one of many
    milestones ahead of us.
[03:36] ---
    My goal is to become Hokage, after all.
[03:41] ---
    What about you, Mitsuki?
[03:42] ---
    And don't just say,
    "I don't care either way."
[03:45] ---
    I won't say that.
[03:47] ---
    Because either way isn't fine.
[03:51] ---
    Both of you are aiming to become chunin,
[03:53] ---
    my goal is also to pass the chunin exam.
[04:01] ---
    If Team 7 has to fight each other,
    don't hold back.
[04:07] ---
    That goes without saying!
[04:09] ---
    No hard feelings if you lose to me.
[04:11] ---
    Though, it would be great
    if we all become chunin.
[04:16] ---
    Yeah, let's give it everything we've got.
[04:25] ---
    Where are you going
    so early in the morning?
[04:28] ---
    I'm training with Mitsuki
    in preparation for tomorrow.
[04:31] ---
    The Chunin Exam, was it?
[04:34] ---
    Is Sarada going to train too?
[04:36] ---
    Sarada said she was going to
    get advice from Mr. Sasuke.
[04:40] ---
    That's not fair, is it?
[04:42] ---
    Mr. Sasuke is my master!
[04:45] ---
    You seem really worked up.
[04:48] ---
    Of course I am.
[04:49] ---
    Everyone's been training just for tomorrow.
[04:52] ---
    Want to come along, Kawaki?
[04:54] ---
    No thanks.
[04:56] ---
    I don't quite understand what's going on,
[04:58] ---
    but just don't embarrass yourself.
[05:00] ---
    Shut up!
[05:01] ---
    Of course I won't, ya know!
[05:06] ---
    So, it's just the two of us today,
    as expected.
[05:08] ---
    There's no way I could invite Metal.
[05:11] ---
    He was so depressed yesterday.
[05:14] ---
    Yeah, he was.
[05:18] ---
    Anyway, there's only one thing
    we can do right now.
[05:22] ---
    Pass the exam, right?
[05:26] ---
    We can't afford to lose, for Metal's sake.
[05:29] ---
    You two are late!
[05:32] ---
    Metal?! What are you—!
[05:36] ---
    Please allow me to assist.
[05:39] ---
    I need at least one of you
    to pass the exam tomorrow!
[05:46] ---
    Thinking about that is making me
    feel kind of nervous!
[05:50] ---
    Please make sure you pass tomorrow!
[05:54] ---
    Thank you, Metal.
[05:56] ---
    Anyway, we don't have much time, right?
[05:59] ---
    Let's go!
[06:00] ---
    Okay!
SIGN    TECHNOLOGY LABORATORY
[06:07] ---
    Hello!
[06:09] ---
    Ah!
[06:10] ---
    Why if it isn't Denki...
[06:13] ---
    ...and the rest of Team 5!
[06:15] ---
    Sorry for always using your resources.
[06:18] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:20] ---
    I welcome any requests from
    the young researchers of the Leaf!
[06:25] ---
    My researcher's spirit is all fired up!
[06:37] ---
    I'm preparing a testing room
    as fast as I can.
[06:40] ---
    Come, I'll help you prepare the item!
[06:44] ---
    It's fine, I'll do it.
[06:47] ---
    According to the rules,
[06:48] ---
    I'm limited to Scientific
    Ninja Tools of my own creation.
[06:52] ---
    I see...
[06:54] ---
    But please be sure to allow me
    to watch your test.
[06:57] ---
    Please!
[07:00] ---
    I never thought you would be
    using "that" in the Chunin Exam.
[07:05] ---
    I absolutely can't let
    this opportunity pass me by.
[07:09] ---
    Denki...
[07:11] ---
    Since Scientific Ninja Tools
    are allowed now,
[07:13] ---
    even though I'm less skilled in
    combat skills than everyone else,
[07:17] ---
    this greatly increases my chances
    of becoming a chunin.
[07:20] ---
    It seems that all that research
    you did was worthwhile!
[07:24] ---
    This is a one-in-a-million opportunity.
[07:27] ---
    I have to do whatever I can to win!
[07:30] ---
    It's rare seeing you this worked up.
[07:33] ---
    One can never be too enthusiastic.
[07:38] ---
    That is because only the best genin
    in the Leaf remain in this round!
[07:43] ---
    That sounds pretty convincing
    coming from someone who failed.
[07:46] ---
    Please do not mention that!
[07:48] ---
    – Oh man!
    – Sorry, sorry.
[07:51] ---
    The only question is
    who I'm going to fight...
[07:55] ---
    Well, there are some guys
    you just don't want to fight,
[07:58] ---
    like Team 7.
[07:59] ---
    Inojin and Chocho of Team 10
[08:03] ---
    aren't too far behind Team 7
    in terms of accomplishments.
[08:05] ---
    Yeah, they're all strong opponents.
[08:08] ---
    What about Wasabi's team?
[08:10] ---
    We've got a better record than they do...
[08:16] ---
    Can you honestly say that
[08:17] ---
    after seeing Miss Tsubaki's Snowstorm Slash?
[08:20] ---
    Isn't there anyone else?
[08:23] ---
    Well, there's Houki from Team 25.
[08:27] ---
    Aside from the fact that he takes on
[08:28] ---
    ANBU Black Ops missions under Mr. Sai,
[08:30] ---
    I don't know anything about him.
[08:32] ---
    He is quite unsettling.
[08:37] ---
    All right, fine!
[08:39] ---
    At any rate, there's no point
    in fretting about this!
[08:42] ---
    We just have to throw ourselves
    headfirst into this!
[08:44] ---
    Well, we should adjust our fighting style
[08:47] ---
    based on our opponent...
[08:51] ---
    The testing room is ready.
[08:54] ---
    Metal, would you like to act as
    my practice opponent
[08:57] ---
    for the final round?
[08:59] ---
    Of course!
[09:01] ---
    There are no easy opponents
    in tomorrow's match.
[09:03] ---
    Even though this is a test run,
[09:04] ---
    I want you to come at me
    with everything you've got.
[09:06] ---
    Everything I've got?
[09:08] ---
    Please do not blame me
    if something happens!
[09:15] ---
    This is—!
[09:17] ---
    The one most likely to pass
    might be Denki.
SIGN    BARBE-Q
[09:31] ---
    This isn't like you...
    inviting us out to eat, Shikadai.
[09:34] ---
    So good!
[09:35] ---
    Well, I figured I should do this
    once in a while.
[09:38] ---
    Ever since my dad was a kid,
[09:40] ---
    this has been the place
    to discuss important things.
[09:42] ---
    Honestly, you're thinking too much about it.
[09:48] ---
    So good!
[09:52] ---
    Hey, stop eating and say something.
[09:57] ---
    Well, we're going to split the bill,
[09:59] ---
    so I need to get my money's worth.
[10:01] ---
    Your money's worth?
[10:03] ---
    It's mostly just been you eating.
[10:05] ---
    That's the issue, right there.
[10:06] ---
    Huh?
[10:08] ---
    You haven't eaten anything at all.
[10:12] ---
    You're acting calm,
[10:14] ---
    but it's clear that you're super
    nervous about tomorrow's exam.
[10:19] ---
    That's not true!
[10:22] ---
    You're no match for Chocho.
[10:24] ---
    Here, this is ready.
[10:26] ---
    You should eat too, Inojin.
[10:27] ---
    That's right!
[10:31] ---
    Thanks.
[10:32] ---
    Hey, Old Man!
[10:33] ---
    20 more orders of salted
    beef tongue with green onions!
[10:36] ---
    Sure thing!
[10:37] ---
    You idiot! Are you planning on spending
[10:38] ---
    your entire month's paycheck on meat?!
[10:41] ---
    Like I said, we're splitting the bill...
[10:44] ---
    Splitting the bill is a battle.
[10:53] ---
    In battle, one must use any means necessary.
[10:56] ---
    Shikadai...
[10:57] ---
    ...look after my body.
[10:59] ---
    This is the only way to stop Chocho...
[11:03] ---
    when she's serious!
[11:04] ---
    The only way?
[11:06] ---
    Are you going to—?!
[11:08] ---
    Ninja Art!
[11:09] ---
    Mind Transfer Jutsu!
[11:14] ---
    You won't be able to eat now.
[11:17] ---
    Honestly, what a ridiculous thing to do.
[11:21] ---
    As a result of my training,
[11:23] ---
    the success rate of
    my Mind Transfer has gone up.
[11:27] ---
    Now Chocho won't be able to—
[11:31] ---
    What?!
[11:33] ---
    What's the matter?
[11:34] ---
    Her body...
[11:37] ---
    is reflexively—!
[11:43] ---
    This is...
[11:46] ---
    no different from before!
[11:55] ---
    Ah, that was really satisfying.
[11:58] ---
    I probably don't need to
    eat barbeque for a while.
[12:01] ---
    How weird.
[12:03] ---
    I haven't eaten anything at all,
    but I feel totally full.

[12:10] ---
    Our parents have brought us here,
    ever since we were little, huh?
[12:16] ---
    Of course.
    We've been together since we were born.
[12:18] ---
    That's right.
[12:20] ---
    Because of that,
    we even had matching pajamas.
[12:25] ---
    I didn't like that, though.
[12:27] ---
    Come to think of it, you're right.
[12:31] ---
    Should we get the bill?
[12:32] ---
    Thanks to someone,
    I'm sure it's gonna be ridiculous.
[12:36] ---
    I got it today.
[12:38] ---
    What?! Are you sure?
[12:39] ---
    As a chunin, this is the last time
    I'll be able to treat you as genin.
[12:48] ---
    From tomorrow, we split the bill.
[12:58] ---
    Shikadai was totally acting cool.
[13:01] ---
    Did you notice it?
[13:03] ---
    The vest?
[13:07] ---
    That was the vest Shikadai got
    when he became a chunin.
[13:11] ---
    Of course I did.
[13:12] ---
    Even though he became a chunin,
[13:15] ---
    he never wore it.
[13:17] ---
    I heard from Mrs. Temari that he
    just left it hanging in his room.
[13:26] ---
    He won't come out and just say it,
[13:28] ---
    but he just wants the three of us
    to wear matching vests together.
[13:30] ---
    Damn it, Shikadai's so cool, isn't he?
[13:36] ---
    We can't afford to lose tomorrow.
[13:38] ---
    Yeah!
[13:47] ---
    This is where you were.
[13:50] ---
    At first, I was thinking of
    giving you some advice, but...
[13:54] ---
    Anyways, Hako and Renga,
    it's a shame you didn't make it.
[13:57] ---
    There's no need to worry.
[13:59] ---
    Houki will become a chunin for us.
[14:02] ---
    You're quite confident, aren't you?
[14:04] ---
    You've taught us
[14:06] ---
    the fighting style of the Anbu Black Ops.
[14:08] ---
    If you're no match in power,
    there's no need to attack head-on.
[14:12] ---
    It doesn't matter if you lose a challenge
[14:14] ---
    as long as you win the match.
[14:17] ---
    I've hidden all unnecessary pride
    and emotion beneath my mask.
[14:22] ---
    These are all things
    you've taught us, Mr. Sai.
[14:27] ---
    I'm looking forward to tomorrow!
[14:32] ---
    Do your best!
[14:38] ---
    Let's stop here for today.
[14:40] ---
    I can still keep going!
[14:42] ---
    If we keep going,
    you'll be exhausted tomorrow.
[14:45] ---
    That's... not true...
[14:49] ---
    Wasabi!
[14:53] ---
    You've done everything you could.
[14:55] ---
    All that's left is the battle with yourself.
[14:58] ---
    You say that, but it's a one-on-one battle.
[15:01] ---
    I honestly don't want to go
    up against Boruto or Sarada.
[15:06] ---
    Being discouraged is not allowed, Wasabi!
[15:09] ---
    Tomorrow, I'll be cheering you on
    louder than anyone else there!
[15:14] ---
    That makes it sound like
    you're the one fighting.
[15:17] ---
    Let's lighten the mood
    by going to Thunder Burg—!
[15:24] ---
    Tsubaki?
[15:28] ---
    It's from the Land of Iron.
[15:32] ---
    You said that's a letter
    from the Land of Iron...
[15:34] ---
    So, what's going on?
[15:38] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[15:40] ---
    What's the matter?
[15:41] ---
    Is it bad news?
[15:43] ---
    No...
[15:46] ---
    In fact, it is good news.
[15:51] ---
    I'm so relieved!
[15:53] ---
    So? What's happening?
[15:55] ---
    The truth is, it concerns me.
[15:59] ---
    I will be returning home!
[16:03] ---
    And as a candidate for a leadership position
[16:04] ---
    in the Land of Iron!
[16:06] ---
    By leaving the team,
[16:07] ---
    I'll be causing the both of you
    a great deal of trouble...
[16:09] ---
    But, my long-standing wish has come true!
[16:16] ---
    Congratulations! That's amazing!
[16:18] ---
    You came here to help revive
    the Land of Iron, after all.
[16:23] ---
    I feel kind of proud
    we got to be a part of that!
[16:25] ---
    It was well worth the effort
    to come here to study.
[16:30] ---
    This is all thanks to the both of you!
[16:37] ---
    I lost my composure there.
[16:41] ---
    The Land of Iron is a place
    rich in tradition,
[16:43] ---
    but it is also constrained
    because of them.
[16:45] ---
    I shall use what I have
    learned in the Leaf
[16:47] ---
    to transform it into a nation that
    is more wonderful than any other.
[16:52] ---
    I was able to take that first step!
[16:56] ---
    When will you be... going back home?
[16:59] ---
    Once the Chunin Exam is over.
[17:02] ---
    I want to succeed in the exam
    before I depart.
[17:05] ---
    I want to give hope to everyone
    in the Land of Iron.
[17:08] ---
    I'm sure everyone will be happy!
[17:11] ---
    I cannot afford to lose tomorrow.
[17:15] ---
    What's wrong with you guys?
[17:17] ---
    Why are you spacing out like that?
[17:18] ---
    Don't tell me you're scared
    about tomorrow's match.
[17:22] ---
    What are you talking about?
[17:24] ---
    We're just relaxing, considering
    how easy this is gonna be!
[17:27] ---
    I feel bad, so I'll lend it to you some time.
[17:32] ---
    Huh? What are you gonna lend me?
[17:35] ---
    My chunin vest.
[17:37] ---
    You probably won't ever get
    a chance to wear one anyway.
[17:40] ---
    What did you just say?!
[17:42] ---
    Try saying that once more!
[17:42] ---
    Please stop!
[17:43] ---
    I'll say it as many times as you like!
[17:48] ---
    Stop it, you two. We're inside a restaurant.
[17:53] ---
    What did you do today?
[17:56] ---
    We were testing a Scientific Ninja Tool.
[17:58] ---
    We've been inside the lab all day.
[18:02] ---
    I see...
[18:07] ---
    I wanted to get some advice from you, Dad.
[18:11] ---
    I see.
[18:13] ---
    You're far more skilled as
    a shinobi than I was at your age.
[18:19] ---
    That's not true.
[18:21] ---
    I told Boruto this as well...
[18:24] ---
    if there's one thing I can say...
[18:26] ---
    It's that a shinobi must always be prepared.
[18:28] ---
    Prepared?
[18:30] ---
    I was always prepared
    when I went into battle.
[18:35] ---
    During that recent battle...
[18:38] ---
    I lost the Rinnegan,
    a big source of power for me.
[18:41] ---
    But I have no regrets.
[18:44] ---
    Is it because you were always prepared?
[18:57] ---
    I'm prepared as well.
[19:25] ---
    How unusual.
[19:29] ---
    Oh, it's you, Sarada.
[19:32] ---
    I never expected to see you
    training by yourself.
[19:34] ---
    Well, um, this is...
[19:38] ---
    There's no need to be embarrassed.
[19:39] ---
    That's true.
[19:40] ---
    I work hard despite the talent
    I was born with.
[19:44] ---
    I'm the perfect lady!
[19:47] ---
    That's right! That sounds like you!
[19:51] ---
    I can't let Shikadai continue
    being the only chunin, right?
[19:56] ---
    I'm kind of jealous.
[19:59] ---
    Ino-Shika-Cho just feels special, you know?
[20:05] ---
    It makes me a little frustrated.
[20:08] ---
    True. Ino-Shika-Cho is special.
[20:10] ---
    We're like family,
    or something along those lines.

    But they're also my biggest rivals.
[20:17] ---
    I may rely on them, but I'll never
    take advantage of them.
[20:20] ---
    If I keep going at this rate,
[20:22] ---
    I'll just end up
    taking advantage of Shikadai.
[20:24] ---
    Chocho...
[20:26] ---
    Look at me. What am I babbling on

    That part of you.
[20:38] ---
    Well, you're the only one I can talk to
[20:41] ---
    about these kinds of things, right?
[20:47] ---
    Let's make sure we become
    chunin together tomorrow!
[20:50] ---
    No one can stand in our way!

[23:26] ---
    All right, I'll announce the first match.
[23:28] ---
    The first match:
    Inojin Yamanaka vs. Houki Taketori!

    doesn't mean I'll be holding back.
[23:38] ---
    I'll win.
[23:39] ---
    Houki Taketori, huh?
[23:41] ---
    He's in the ANBU right?

    But you know, I'll win this.
