[00:05] ---
    Yagura the Fourth Mizukage
[00:08] ---
    used fear to rule this village
    in the past.
[00:13] ---
    I am Yagura's grandchild.
[00:16] ---
    The blood of a mass murderer
    courses through my veins.
[00:21] ---
    I could never succeed him
[00:22] ---
    as one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen
    and lead this village.
[00:27] ---
    I'll be satisfied with
    being Chojuro's aide.
[00:30] ---
    At least, that's what I thought…
[00:33] ---
    until I met…
[00:36] ---
    Boruto Uzumaki.
[00:49] ---
    About the candidacy test for
    the Great Twin Swords Hiramekarei…
[00:53] ---
    I'd like to take it.

[02:30] ---
    Declaration of War
    
    
    About the candidacy test for
[02:31] ---
    Declaration of War
    
    the Great Twin Sword Hiramekarei…
[02:33] ---
    I'd like to take it.
[02:36] ---
    You would? I'm glad to hear it.
[02:40] ---
    Before you were born,
[02:41] ---
    there was a great conflict
    known as the Fourth Great Ninja War.
[02:46] ---
    During that war,
    over a fifth of the men and women
[02:49] ---
    fighting for the Allied Shinobi Forces
    were lost.
[02:53] ---
    I have the greatest respect for you
    and all my predecessors
[02:55] ---
    who helped to end it.
[02:58] ---
    It was possible
[02:59] ---
    due to the sacrifice of many skilled
    and experienced shinobi.
[03:04] ---
    And they all believed in the future.
[03:08] ---
    A future in which every village
    had a stake.
[03:12] ---
    And that is why I want to
    pass on the Hiramekarei
[03:14] ---
    to a young shinobi
    who can carry the torch.
[03:18] ---
    I'm sure those who went
    before us would agree.
[03:28] ---
    I accept with great honor.
[03:42] ---
    Great Twin Sword Hiramekarei.
[04:09] ---
    Pretty sweet sword.
[04:11] ---
    Why'd you call me out so late?
[04:16] ---
    Sorry.
[04:18] ---
    I wanted to show you
    before anyone else.
[04:23] ---
    The one entrusted with this sword
    will forge the future of the village.
[04:29] ---
    Boruto, thanks to you,
    I was able to make up my mind.
[04:32] ---
    Aw, I didn't do anything.
[04:34] ---
    No, you spoke the truth.
[04:38] ---
    Blood ties don't matter.
[04:40] ---
    I'm the one who decides how I live.
[04:43] ---
    Good for you, Kagura!
[04:44] ---
    If you're gonna be the leader,
[04:46] ---
    the village will be in good hands.
[04:49] ---
    I hope I'm up to it…
[04:52] ---
    I guarantee it!
[04:54] ---
    You'll be fine!
[04:56] ---
    It's strange. Hearing you say it,
    somehow I believe it.
[04:59] ---
    I'm a good judge of people, ya know.
[05:14] ---
    Yikes!
[05:24] ---
    We meet again, Kagura.
[05:27] ---
    You…!
[05:32] ---
    What're you doing?!
[05:33] ---
    Mr. Shizuma!
[05:34] ---
    Hey Kagura…
[05:36] ---
    And Boruto Uzumaki!
[05:39] ---
    You were at the harbor!
[05:41] ---
    The name is Shizuma Hoshigaki.
[05:44] ---
    It seems my errand boys caused
    some trouble yesterday.
[05:48] ---
    Sorry about that.
[05:49] ---
    So the guys who kidnapped
    Denki were yours?
[05:53] ---
    Well, we beat them
    at their own game.
[05:56] ---
    The younger ones are riled up
[05:59] ---
    because of this senseless
    reconciliation policy.
[06:04] ---
    So whaddya want?
[06:06] ---
    Your entrance just now
    wasn't too funny.
[06:09] ---
    Mr. Shizuma…
[06:11] ---
    You're still supposed to
    be under penitence
[06:14] ---
    because of your actions
    in the last mission.
[06:17] ---
    Yet you—
[06:18] ---
    Penitence is something
    one places on themself.
[06:23] ---
    I can sorta agree with that!
[06:26] ---
    Besides, fairly soon now
[06:28] ---
    we won't have to take orders
    from the current Mizukage.
[06:32] ---
    What does that mean?
[06:34] ---
    What else?
[06:36] ---
    The time has come for a war
    to reclaim our dignity.
[06:40] ---
    Mr. Shizuma…
[06:41] ---
    Come off it!
[06:43] ---
    You're either crazy or half-asleep!
[06:50] ---
    My eyes are wide open
    and I'm perfectly sane.
[06:54] ---
    Kagura, you now have
    the Great Twin Sword.
[06:58] ---
    It is time.
[07:01] ---
    We kill the Hokage's son,
    then declare war.
[07:05] ---
    What're you saying?
[07:07] ---
    There won't be any war!
[07:09] ---
    He's right, Mr. Shizuma.
[07:11] ---
    The world has just started down
    the path to peace.
[07:14] ---
    I'm going to put this sword
    to use for that purpose.
[07:17] ---
    Peace?
[07:19] ---
    Mei Terumi and Chojuro
    are just toying with you.
[07:24] ---
    Lord Chojuro is a noble man.
[07:27] ---
    He's doing all he can
[07:29] ---
    to keep the peace in this village
    once ensnared in chaos.
[07:32] ---
    It's all for show!
[07:35] ---
    Chojuro plans to get rid of everyone
    who doesn't agree with his methods.
[07:41] ---
    Impossible…
[07:43] ---
    Countless villagers still suffer
    from the scars left by war.
[07:48] ---
    Don't tell me you're unaware.
[07:51] ---
    I know…
[07:53] ---
    Kagura, you have suffered more
    than anyone in the village.
[08:14] ---
    Y-You got—
[08:35] ---
    Stop, Kagura.
[08:38] ---
    That's enough…
[08:40] ---
    Kagura, what're you doing?!
[08:43] ---
    Sh-Shizuma…! I…
[08:46] ---
    It's Yagura's blood.
[08:47] ---
    He's the grandson of
    that mass murderer…
[08:51] ---
    How could Lord Chojuro admit
    a guy like that into the Academy?
[08:55] ---
    When he wields a sword,
    he goes berserk.
[08:58] ---
    Even if he has the skills,
    we can't endorse a shinobi like him…
[09:06] ---
    I… I…
[09:08] ---
    You're the way you should be.
[09:12] ---
    Fighting to kill is the way of
    the Blood Mist shinobi.
[09:16] ---
    There's nothing wrong with you…
    Kagura Karatachi.
[09:22] ---
    Mr. Shizuma…
[09:25] ---
    The age to come is going to need
    warriors like you.
[09:34] ---
    Kagura, I will protect you.
[09:45] ---
    Mr. Shizuma, I'm grateful to you
    for defending me all these years.
[09:50] ---
    But I cannot go along
    with you anymore.
[09:54] ---
    If you continue to incite trouble,
    I will be ordered to punish you.
[09:59] ---
    Punish?
[10:02] ---
    The one who must be punished
    is Chojuro.
[10:08] ---
    Chojuro is using assassins
    to get rid of insurgents.
[10:14] ---
    Kagura, what's wrong?!
[10:18] ---
    It doesn't make sense, does it?
[10:21] ---
    There's no way reform
    can proceed smoothly
[10:23] ---
    in the Blood Mist Village.
[10:26] ---
    He seems calm and upright,
[10:27] ---
    but behind the scenes,
    he's ruthless.
[10:32] ---
    The fact that my family's name
    no longer appears on the memorials
[10:36] ---
    is undeniable proof.
[10:38] ---
    The current regime wants to erase
[10:40] ---
    every vestige of those
    who were a nuisance.
[10:44] ---
    The same goes for your family.
[10:47] ---
    We will fight
[10:49] ---
    so that those whose very existence
    was erased can rest in peace!
[10:53] ---
    Now come, Kagura!
[10:58] ---
    Remember this?
[11:03] ---
    This is the scar you gave me.
[11:06] ---
    Ever since that day,
    I've looked out for you.
[11:09] ---
    No matter how you try to change,
    you belong with me.
[11:18] ---
    Kagura, what's the matter?!
[11:20] ---
    Hey, mister!
[11:22] ---
    Sorry. I may not look it,
    but I'm still 18.
[11:27] ---
    Don't go tempting my friend
    with your nonsense!
[11:31] ---
    Nonsense?
[11:33] ---
    You think it so only because
    you've been pampered your whole life.
[11:37] ---
    Shut up!
[11:45] ---
    What is it? Has something upset you?
[11:48] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[11:51] ---
    Time to give it a try…
[12:01] ---
    Hmm?
[12:03] ---
    Like those? You can't deflect them
    with a sword.
[12:07] ---
    That's more like it.
[12:09] ---
    It's not worth killing you otherwise.
[12:11] ---
    Shizuma!
[12:15] ---
    Address me as "Mr. Shizuma"!
[12:19] ---
    Address these!
[12:22] ---
    Buntan.
[12:26] ---
    Wha—?!
[12:27] ---
    This childish Lightning Style
[12:30] ---
    is nothing compared
    to the real thing, little boy.
[12:35] ---
    Ichirota.
[12:36] ---
    Right here.
[12:38] ---
    Hassaku.
[12:39] ---
    Here!
[12:40] ---
    Hebiichigo.
[12:41] ---
    Understood.
[12:43] ---
    Who the hell are these guys?
[12:45] ---
    Kyoho.
[12:46] ---
    Yeah!
[12:55] ---
    You didn't hafta summon
    so many guys!
[12:57] ---
    It's my way of showing respect
    to the Hokage's son
[13:00] ---
    before he meets his death.
[13:02] ---
    Enough messing around.
[13:05] ---
    I know more than Lightning Style.
[13:07] ---
    Wind Style: Consecutive Wind Fist!
[13:13] ---
    This is my lethal…Boruto Stream!
[13:24] ---
    Water Style…
[13:25] ---
    Water Forge Jutsu.
[13:37] ---
    "Boruto Stream"? What a laugh!
[13:40] ---
    For a moment, you had me scared.
[13:42] ---
    He's so pitiful, it's not even funny.
[13:45] ---
    Poor thing…
[13:46] ---
    He hasn't realized that
    he's about to die.
[13:53] ---
    This is what "fighting to kill"
    really means.
[13:56] ---
    A high price to learn it, eh?
[13:58] ---
    Boruto!
[14:04] ---
    You should know…
[14:06] ---
    that we are the new Seven Ninja
    Swordsmen of the Blood Mist!
[14:12] ---
    There's only six of you!
[14:15] ---
    Oh, you still don't get it?
[14:19] ---
    Kagura… Kill the bastard.
[14:25] ---
    I'm…the seventh…?
[14:35] ---
    In the lands around the Middle Sea,
    times are tense.
[14:39] ---
    Now, if the son of the Hokage
    were to be killed in Mist Village,
[14:41] ---
    it would be cause enough
    not only to sink the peace treaty,
[14:45] ---
    but for war to erupt.
[14:47] ---
    And in the chaos, we shall mete out
    Heaven's punishment.
[14:51] ---
    Exactly.
[14:53] ---
    War?
[14:56] ---
    What? The old man's not
    coming home again?
[15:00] ---
    Looks that way.
[15:02] ---
    But your father
    is doing his best
[15:05] ---
    so that you two can live in peace.
[15:08] ---
    He wants there to
    never be another war.
[15:13] ---
    You've got to be crazy.
[15:16] ---
    As if I'd let another war begin!
[15:20] ---
    Oh? You think you can stop it?
[15:24] ---
    On with it, Kagura.
[15:34] ---
    Kagura…
[15:36] ---
    You made up your mind
[15:38] ---
    to accept the sword for
    the good of your village.
[15:42] ---
    You can't let guys
    like this change it…
[15:46] ---
    Good… That's the way, Kagura.
[15:49] ---
    I will protect you,
    like I've always done.
[15:56] ---
    Why you—!
[16:01] ---
    Mr. Shizuma…
[16:03] ---
    You're saying you will forge
    a future that is more just?
[16:08] ---
    I swear it on my life.
[16:10] ---
    I don't intend my life to end
    in disgrace.
[16:14] ---
    Go, Boruto.
[16:16] ---
    Kagura…
[16:18] ---
    My hands… my blades…
    are stained with blood.
[16:24] ---
    I don't…want to kill you.
[16:27] ---
    Come now, don't be naïve!
[16:29] ---
    No, it's okay.
[16:31] ---
    My dear friend has drawn his sword,
    yet makes a request.
[16:36] ---
    And if we were to take him on
    when Kagura's of a mind,
[16:39] ---
    we'd be the ones cut down.
[16:49] ---
    Your life's been spared,
    Hokage's son.
[16:52] ---
    Now go home and let him know…
[16:55] ---
    The revolution has begun!
[16:58] ---
    We go.
[17:05] ---
    Don't go, Kagura!
[17:13] ---
    It seems I will always be
    the grandson of Yagura.
[17:19] ---
    Kagura!
[17:22] ---
    Kagu…ra…
[17:32] ---
    Boruto.
[17:34] ---
    Boruto!
[17:35] ---
    Boruto!
[17:38] ---
    Oh… Sarada…
[17:41] ---
    Thank goodness, you're awake.
[17:43] ---
    Sarada, how'd you know I was—
[17:46] ---
    Oww!
[17:47] ---
    Careful!
[17:48] ---
    Well, he came to tell me.
[17:51] ---
    H-Hey…
[17:53] ---
    You!
[17:55] ---
    You're one of Shizuma's jerks!
[17:58] ---
    Oww!
[17:59] ---
    N-No…
[18:01] ---
    I'm not anymore!
[18:02] ---
    What? What do you mean?
[18:05] ---
    He was beaten terribly,
    and ran away.
[18:08] ---
    It seems this Shizuma used him,
    then kicked him out.
[18:15] ---
    Sarada treated my wounds!
    I'm beholden to all of you!
[18:21] ---
    Boruto, what have you been up to?!
[18:25] ---
    I-I'm sorry! I didn't know!
[18:29] ---
    I had no idea Mr. Shizuma was
    really trying to start a war.
[18:33] ---
    And not knowing clears you
    of guilt?
[18:37] ---
    H-He only told us we were going
    to do something great.
[18:41] ---
    I…I wanted that…
[18:43] ---
    I kept telling you not to cause
    trouble on our field trip.
[18:48] ---
    Now what do we do?
[18:50] ---
    There's only one thing
    to do right now…
[18:55] ---
    I'm going to save Kagura.
[18:59] ---
    What?!
[19:08] ---
    Shizuma Hoshigaki?
[19:10] ---
    He's definitely got skill,
[19:12] ---
    but he was more famous
    for his bad behavior.
[19:15] ---
    Imagine a guy like that staging
    a coup d'état!
[19:24] ---
    Slipped away, did you?
[19:27] ---
    So this Shizuma fellow took
    Kagura hostage?
[19:32] ---
    No.
[19:34] ---
    They were trying to convince
    Kagura to join them.
[19:37] ---
    What?!
[19:39] ---
    Hey… ‘Fess up, Hachiya!
[19:42] ---
    Was there something between
    Kagura and Shizuma?!
[19:44] ---
    K-Kagura will never defy Mr. Shizuma…
[19:49] ---
    Why not?
[19:51] ---
    Kagura once wounded Mr. Shizuma.
[19:56] ---
    So that's where that scar came from.
[19:59] ---
    Kagura is, without a doubt,
    a powerful swordsman.
[20:03] ---
    But he has a weakness.
    He can't control his emotions.
[20:08] ---
    That explains Kagura's dislike of swords.
[20:13] ---
    If Kagura feels indebted because
    of the hurt he caused,
[20:17] ---
    Shizuma can use that against him.
[20:20] ---
    Mr. Shizuma wouldn't hesitate
    to do that.
[20:23] ---
    Taking advantage of people's feelings…
[20:26] ---
    That heartless—!
[20:27] ---
    We have to notify all the sensei.
[20:31] ---
    Hey, don't tell me…?!
[20:34] ---
    Sorry, Sarada.
[20:36] ---
    I'm the field trip manager.
[20:38] ---
    Making sure it ends without
    incident is my job.
[20:44] ---
    It's useless trying to stop you.
[20:46] ---
    Well then, I'm coming too.
[20:48] ---
    What?!
[20:49] ---
    Well, it's my job to keep an eye
    on you during the field trip.
[20:53] ---
    I have to see this through
    to the end.
[20:57] ---
    Not that I want to.
[20:59] ---
    I did something to Kagura
    that I can't take back…!
[21:04] ---
    All right, then!
[21:05] ---
    The three of us will save Kagura!
[21:08] ---
    Even supposing we forget
    your actions,
[21:10] ---
    if those other guys do manage
    to start something—
[21:12] ---
    You think
    there'll really be a war?!
[21:15] ---
    Don't panic. I got an idea.
[21:22] ---
    Listen, this isn't a war.
[21:26] ---
    It's a fight between us and them!
[21:47] ---
    All right, time to start a war.
[23:25] ---
    With these swords
    we can start a revolution.
[23:28] ---
    The blades are heavy.
[23:30] ---
    Do I even have the right
    to wield them?
[23:32] ---
    It's too late to turn back now.
[23:35] ---
    The great Yagura's blood
    flows through you—
[23:37] ---
    Take what rights you want!
[23:39] ---
    The past cannot be changed…
[23:42] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:45] ---
    "The New Seven Ninja Swordsmen!"
    
    
[23:47] ---
    This village, which harbors
    the pride and blood of Yagura,
    
    
[23:50] ---
    will be saved by me!
