[00:12] ---
    WE HAVE YOUR FRIEND.
    IF YOU WANT HIM BACK,
    COME TO PIER NUMBER 4.
[00:16] ---
    What have they done?
[00:22] ---
    Who the hell are they, anyways?
[00:25] ---
    Tsurushi Hachiya…
[00:26] ---
    He's a genin who was in
    my class at the Academy.
[00:29] ---
    He's a genin?!
[00:30] ---
    A guy like that?!
[00:32] ---
    He can't stand the fact
[00:33] ---
    that our village has turned
    into a tourist destination.
[00:39] ---
    We have to go save Denki
    soon or else—!
[00:41] ---
    No, we have to inform
    Lord Chojuro first.
[00:43] ---
    We can't do that.
[00:45] ---
    If this thing blows up,
    our field trip will be cancelled!
[00:49] ---
    Hey, you're strong, right?
[00:52] ---
    I think we can do this
    without relying on the adults.
[00:56] ---
    That's…
[00:59] ---
    We'll make sure this
    doesn't turn into a big deal.
[01:01] ---
    So lend us a hand, will ya, Kagura?
[01:10] ---
    I got it.
[01:13] ---
    A lot of time has already passed…
[01:16] ---
    We've gotta hurry!
[02:48] ---
    A Shinobi Bout of Friendship
    
    
    
[03:01] ---
    It should be around here…
[03:08] ---
    Denki!
[03:10] ---
    Are you okay?!
[03:11] ---
    Boruto!
[03:13] ---
    Hey, let Denki go right now!
[03:16] ---
    Well, that all depends on you.
[03:20] ---
    If you all get on your knees
    and bow your head,
[03:22] ---
    I might just consider it.
[03:24] ---
    Huh? That's ridiculous.
[03:27] ---
    Don't get carried away, you jerk!
[03:30] ---
    Hachiya, are you out of your mind?
[03:32] ---
    What's the point of doing
    something like this?!
[03:34] ---
    Shut up and stay out of this!
[03:37] ---
    You're just a lapdog
    sucking up to the Hidden Leaf.
[03:43] ---
    This is war between the Leaf and us!
[03:46] ---
    A war? In this day and age?!
[03:48] ---
    You guys are so dumb, it's clichéd.
[03:51] ---
    This is really a drag.
[03:52] ---
    Hey, you said you wouldn't
    cause trouble…
[03:55] ---
    But they seem bent on fighting.
[03:59] ---
    We'll teach you to fear
    the might of Blood Mist Shinobi!
[04:04] ---
    That sign!
[04:05] ---
    Crimson Mist Barrier Jutsu!
[04:09] ---
    The mist—!
[04:13] ---
    Now, one can see anything
    from the outside.
[04:15] ---
    In here, no one will be
    able to help you…
[04:19] ---
    while we beat
    the hell out of you.
[04:22] ---
    So, no matter how much noise
    we make, no one will notice?
[04:26] ---
    That's convenient.
[04:27] ---
    No kidding. If we get found out,
    our field trip is over.
[04:31] ---
    Wait, you guys. Calm down!
[04:34] ---
    Say that to them!
[04:35] ---
    We've got a lot more guys with us.
[04:38] ---
    It won't be like earlier
    this afternoon!
[04:40] ---
    Get them!
[04:51] ---
    Super Beast Scroll!
[05:04] ---
    Fall back and regroup!
[05:08] ---
    What the hell—?!
[05:10] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[05:15] ---
    Things are tough if
    you fall into your own trap!
[05:19] ---
    Die!
[05:24] ---
    Is that sword still just for show?
[05:28] ---
    A coward like you
[05:29] ---
    becoming one of
    the Seven Shinobi Swordsman…
[05:33] ---
    is a disgrace to the Blood Mist Village!
[05:35] ---
    Kagura!
[05:36] ---
    Stay away!
[05:39] ---
    What? Why don't you just
    kill him too?
[05:43] ---
    You know, like you did before!
[05:48] ---
    Shut up!
[05:50] ---
    Kagura…
[05:55] ---
    I'm gonna let you in
    on a little secret…
[05:57] ---
    This guy changes when
    he draws his sword.
[06:01] ---
    When he was at the Academy,
[06:02] ---
    he dropped a bunch of
    his classmates into a sea of blood.
[06:06] ---
    Quit saying stupid things!
[06:08] ---
    I'm not lying!
[06:10] ---
    After all…
[06:12] ---
    this guy's the grandson of
    the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura.
[06:19] ---
    Seriously?
[06:23] ---
    And look at how pitiful
    he is now.
[06:26] ---
    He's so afraid of cutting someone,
    he can't even touch his sword.
[06:30] ---
    So sad!
[06:33] ---
    If you're Yagura's grandson,
    act like it!
[06:37] ---
    I'm not…like Yagura!
[06:40] ---
    That's for sure.
[06:42] ---
    You're not like him at all.
[06:44] ---
    You're just an idiot!
[06:52] ---
    Kagura!
[06:56] ---
    I got 'im!
[07:07] ---
    What's that? A wooden sword?
[07:16] ---
    K-Ka…
[07:42] ---
    Kagura!
[07:50] ---
    What?!
[07:57] ---
    Hey, could...you...wait?
[08:07] ---
    Just shut up.
[08:12] ---
    The mist is…
[08:15] ---
    Denki! Are you okay?
[08:18] ---
    Uh-huh.
[08:19] ---
    I was waiting for an opportunity
    to jump in.
[08:21] ---
    Heh… Not bad!
[08:24] ---
    We were outnumbered though.
[08:27] ---
    Are you really genin?
[08:30] ---
    Hachiya!
[08:32] ---
    Damn it…
[08:35] ---
    You'll be sorry!
[08:36] ---
    Let's go!
[08:39] ---
    Get lost, you guys!
[08:43] ---
    Is anyone there?!
[08:45] ---
    Security's on their way!
[08:46] ---
    That's not good.
    Let's run, ya know!
[08:55] ---
    I'm beat!
[08:57] ---
    It looks like our sensei
    haven't gotten wind of this.
[09:00] ---
    So, mission accomplished!
[09:02] ---
    You guys…
[09:04] ---
    Hey, are you really
    Yagura's grandson?
[09:16] ---
    Yes, it's true.
[09:20] ---
    Is it also true that you hurt
    your classmates at the Academy?
[09:32] ---
    When I snapped out of it,
[09:34] ---
    everyone was on the ground
    around me…
[09:41] ---
    I realized then…
[09:44] ---
    that I really am
    Yagura's grandchild.
[09:48] ---
    Even now, I struggle for control
    when I hold a sword.
[09:54] ---
    I…
[09:56] ---
    I'm afraid of wielding
    a sword.
[09:59] ---
    No wonder you looked so relieved
    after sparring with Boruto.
[10:05] ---
    Huh?
[10:08] ---
    Was it that obvious?
[10:10] ---
    This is a personal problem
    that I have to bear.
[10:12] ---
    Please forget about it.
[10:14] ---
    Now let's go back.
[10:16] ---
    After that beat down,
[10:17] ---
    I doubt if Hachiya and his group
    will try anything else.
[10:39] ---
    Regarding the peace treaty
[10:42] ---
    between the nations
    surrounding the Middle Sea…
[10:44] ---
    the Lands of Fire, Water,
    Waves and Sea…
[10:53] ---
    Lady Mei, perhaps you should
    go easy on the alcohol.
[10:56] ---
    I'm fine.
[10:58] ---
    I just need to control
    my internal chakra…
[11:05] ---
    See?
[11:06] ---
    It's a knack we kunoichi have.
[11:09] ---
    Very well…
[11:11] ---
    Now, what we should be doing…
[11:14] ---
    is analyzing the state of affairs.
[11:17] ---
    Because the Land of Water
    does not wish to sign…
[11:21] ---
    a peace treaty.
[11:22] ---
    That is our conclusion.
[11:29] ---
    The Feudal Lords of
    our nation believe
[11:31] ---
    that instability along
    the Middle Sea
[11:34] ---
    provides more opportunities
    for power and expansion.
[11:42] ---
    If only they could limit
    their lust to other things…
[11:46] ---
    I agree.
[11:51] ---
    Let's just finish up
    this discouraging discussion
[11:54] ---
    so you can enjoy
    the Hidden Mist's nightlife.
[11:57] ---
    All right?
[12:01] ---
    Then is it all right to
    conclude that
[12:03] ---
    the Hidden Mist does not agree
    with the Land of Water?
[12:08] ---
    Yes…
[12:09] ---
    Exactly.
[12:11] ---
    The Land of Water can
    say what it likes.
[12:12] ---
    We, the Hidden Mist,
    only wish to preserve stability.
[12:17] ---
    However, if the Lands of Wave
    and of the Sea
[12:19] ---
    continue their quests
    for expansion,
[12:21] ---
    the Land of Water will be put
    in a risky position.
[12:25] ---
    If the two nations clash,
    our village will be forced to act too.
[12:30] ---
    I understand that.
[12:32] ---
    And Hidden Mist Village
    cannot go back
[12:33] ---
    to being called the Blood Mist.
[12:36] ---
    Don't worry…
[12:38] ---
    Both Lord Sixth and I…
[12:42] ---
    will do all we can
    to support the peace treaty.
[12:57] ---
    I think we're okay now…
[12:59] ---
    but you shouldn't go out
    alone anymore.
[13:02] ---
    I understand.
[13:06] ---
    Okay, I'll leave you here.
[13:10] ---
    Hold on a minute!
[13:12] ---
    Come and have some fun with us.
[13:14] ---
    I'm sorry, I just don't feel
    like it right now.
[13:17] ---
    Just come.
[13:19] ---
    Our sensei aren't here!
[13:21] ---
    C'mon, I said no!
[13:23] ---
    Don't worry!
[13:24] ---
    Wait a second!
[13:32] ---
    So that's your move?
[13:34] ---
    Well then, here!
[13:36] ---
    What?!
[13:37] ---
    Okay then…
[13:39] ---
    How's this?!
[13:45] ---
    Shinobi Bout!
[13:46] ---
    No way… already?!
[13:48] ---
    H-Hey wait!
[13:50] ---
    Hey, can't you use that card?
[13:53] ---
    We're already done here…
[13:59] ---
    Guess I win again.
[14:01] ---
    I'll win the next one for sure!
[14:04] ---
    That's the spirit, Kagura.
[14:06] ---
    Huh? You still wanna play?
[14:08] ---
    You can't just win and run!
[14:10] ---
    I didn't know you were like this.
[14:12] ---
    Oh, uh…
[14:15] ---
    Just ignore him.
[14:21] ---
    I didn't think you'd get this hooked
    on Shinobi Bout, Kagura.
[14:26] ---
    I'm surprised at myself too.
[14:28] ---
    I hardly ever played any games…
[14:32] ---
    I never knew
    they could be this fun.
[14:34] ---
    Right?
[14:35] ---
    That sad expression you had earlier
    is completely gone.
[14:39] ---
    Huh?
[14:44] ---
    You guys…
[14:51] ---
    Thank you.
[14:52] ---
    Well, you don't seem to
    have any friends, so…
[14:56] ---
    Isn't that Hachiya
    a friend of yours?
[14:59] ---
    What makes you think that?!
[15:02] ---
    Well, they were classmates
    at the Academy.
[15:04] ---
    It's true, Hachiya used
    to be my classmate…
[15:08] ---
    But he got hooked on the stories
    about the Blood Mist Village
[15:11] ---
    and started hanging out
    with a bad crew…
[15:14] ---
    and just like that,
    we'd grown apart.
[15:19] ---
    It's not like I had friends before,
    but it hurt.
[15:24] ---
    The fact that you were
    Yagura's grandson bothered you,
[15:27] ---
    so you put up a wall, right?
[15:34] ---
    That's right.
[15:40] ---
    O-Okay, I'll start!
[15:48] ---
    So, Kagura…
    Why did you become a ninja?
[15:55] ---
    To survive.
[15:57] ---
    That's all there was,
[15:58] ---
    if you didn't want to be
    poor and struggle.
[16:04] ---
    But Yagura's blood flows in me.
[16:07] ---
    So people were always distant
    with me.
[16:14] ---
    But I met someone who
    saw me as a human being.
[16:24] ---
    But during our first combat training…
[16:35] ---
    You got—
[16:50] ---
    Yagura's blood flows in me.
[16:53] ---
    That's my fate.
    Nothing can change that.
[16:58] ---
    Ever since that moment,
[16:59] ---
    I've fought against
    the voice inside me.
[17:05] ---
    So it never happens again.
[17:09] ---
    Like what happened with
    Yagura so long ago?
[17:14] ---
    The memories of
    the Blood Mist Village and its sins…
[17:17] ---
    will never fade.
[17:20] ---
    Just like the blood that
    flows in my veins.
[17:24] ---
    Yagura's sin…is my sin.
[17:29] ---
    That's got nothing to do with you.
[17:34] ---
    I'm me.
[17:35] ---
    And you're you.
[17:37] ---
    What our dads and grandpas did
    has nothing to do with us.
[17:40] ---
    We do things our own way.
[17:45] ---
    That's all that matters for Boruto.
[17:47] ---
    But you're so diligent and
    never mess around.
[17:50] ---
    You're like someone
    who's really driven, aren't you?
[17:52] ---
    To keep thinking about something
    beyond your control…
[17:55] ---
    Isn't that a drag?
[17:57] ---
    You came to my aid, Kagura!
[18:00] ---
    So I only have words
    of gratitude for you.
[18:06] ---
    Although that swordplay earlier
[18:08] ---
    didn't belong to someone
    who's in a dilemma.
[18:11] ---
    Why are you guys…
[18:13] ---
    so nice to me?
[18:15] ---
    ‘Cuz we're friends. What else?
[18:18] ---
    You threw off criticism that
    you're Yagura's grandson,
[18:21] ---
    and made something of yourself.
[18:22] ---
    That's why Lord Mizukage
    chose you to be
[18:24] ---
    one of the Seven Ninja
    Swordsmen of the Mist.
[18:27] ---
    So why not just be up front
    about it and accept it?
[18:31] ---
    It's the same with games.
[18:33] ---
    You never know if it's gonna
    be fun until you try it!
[18:54] ---
    You may be right…
[18:56] ---
    Shinobi Bout!
[18:58] ---
    – Huh?!
    – Huh?!
[19:00] ---
    Hey, just like that?!
[19:02] ---
    Without any warning?!
[19:04] ---
    Um… What just happened?
[19:07] ---
    Having three cards is rare.
[19:11] ---
    I win.
[19:12] ---
    Damn it!
[19:14] ---
    Thank you.
[19:16] ---
    That was really gutsy…
[19:18] ---
    The way you blocked
    those successive red cards.
[19:21] ---
    But I lost…
[19:23] ---
    Shall we play again?
[19:29] ---
    Boruto! It's time for
    evening roll call!
[19:32] ---
    Who cares!
    It's just roll call anyways.
[19:34] ---
    Now let's play again!
[19:37] ---
    Do you know what
    your role is here?
[19:42] ---
    I guess it's time to call it for today.
[19:45] ---
    I got it.
[19:50] ---
    Here, you can have these.
[19:51] ---
    Huh? Really?
[19:52] ---
    Yeah.
[19:53] ---
    Boruto!
[19:54] ---
    I'm coming, okay?
[19:56] ---
    Let's play again.
[19:58] ---
    S-Sure.
[20:04] ---
    SHINOBI
    BOUT
    
[20:24] ---
    It's been a while…
    since you drew water for me.
[20:31] ---
    So, how are you?
[20:33] ---
    Are things going smoothly
    with the Hidden Leaf?
[20:36] ---
    Yes.
[20:38] ---
    I'm glad.
[20:39] ---
    They call me "friend"
    and treat me as an equal.
[20:45] ---
    I can't remember the last time…
    I had so much fun.
[20:51] ---
    It brought back memories…
    of how I used to be.
[20:57] ---
    Lord Chojuro…
[21:02] ---
    About the candidacy test
    for the Hiramekarei…
[21:05] ---
    I'd like to take it.
[21:19] ---
    I see…
[21:21] ---
    So Kagura went to see the Mizukage.
[21:40] ---
    That's fine.
[21:43] ---
    It all starts now…
[23:25] ---
    Hey Kagura, and Boruto Uzumaki…
[23:28] ---
    Hey, you're the guy
    we saw at the harbor!
[23:30] ---
    Mr. Shizuma!
[23:31] ---
    Now that you have
    a Shinobi Sword in your possession,
[23:33] ---
    it's time for war!
[23:35] ---
    What are you talking about?
[23:37] ---
    To fight until killed is
    what Blood Mist Shinobi do.
[23:40] ---
    We need guys like you now,
    in this era, Kagura.
[23:45] ---
    Next time on Boruto:
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:48] ---
    "A Declaration of War!"
    
    
[23:49] ---
    I'll protect you.
[23:51] ---
    A DECLARATION OF WAR
