[00:13] ---
    WRITTEN TEST
    
    Okay, time's up!
[00:14] ---
    WRITTEN TEST
    
    
[00:15] ---
    WRITTEN TEST
    
    Pencils down!
[00:17] ---
    I'll be collecting your tests.
[00:18] ---
    SHINOBI
    
[00:21] ---
    That was perfect, Denki!
[00:23] ---
    You saved my butt!
[00:25] ---
    If you hadn't distracted Sensei,
[00:28] ---
    I wouldn't have been able to steal
    the test questions so easily.
[00:31] ---
    Security's lax,
[00:33] ---
    but there's always someone
    in the teachers' lounge.
[00:36] ---
    Is that what you guys were up to?
[00:38] ---
    Isn't that cheating?
[00:39] ---
    Are you serious?
[00:42] ---
    A week ago, Shino Sensei…
[00:45] ---
    Check the exam questions
[00:46] ---
    and figure out your strategy.
[00:48] ---
    …told us to!
[00:50] ---
    Basically, he told us to
    steal the questions
[00:53] ---
    from the teachers' lounge
    during that time, right?
[00:56] ---
    They're testing our skills
    as ninja to collect intel.
[01:00] ---
    Though it's all a drag…
[01:02] ---
    Is that what he meant?
[01:03] ---
    I totally wasn't listening.
[01:07] ---
    Are you gonna be okay, Boruto?
[01:08] ---
    You took the exam without
    doing anything, right?
[01:11] ---
    It was easy!
[01:12] ---
    I didn't even need to study
    for a test like that.
[01:16] ---
    You're awesome, Boruto!
[01:17] ---
    But I'm not going to lose.
[01:19] ---
    I'm going to go all out on
[01:21] ---
    the practical application
    exam tomorrow!
[01:24] ---
    Uh… I'm starting to get
    nervous right now.
[01:27] ---
    I wonder what the practical
    application exam is going to be about?
[01:29] ---
    It's probably gonna be tough.
[01:32] ---
    No need to get so scared.
[01:34] ---
    A test isn't a big deal anyways.
[01:36] ---
    In any case, it's probably not
    going to be that hard.
[01:38] ---
    Let's wrap this up and
    become ninja already!
[01:50] ---
    Boruto Uzumaki got a perfect score, eh?
[01:53] ---
    He's quite a kid.
[01:54] ---
    Lord Sixth! When did you—?!
[01:56] ---
    Though… I think he's a bit
    too confident.
[03:33] ---
    The Graduation Exam Begins!
    
    
[03:37] ---
    Coordinated Light Formation!
[03:41] ---
    Oh…what?
[03:42] ---
    What are you doing?
[03:44] ---
    Oh, I was just testing
    my Sealing Jutsu.
[03:48] ---
    You're lacking enough chakra…
[03:51] ---
    I guess I can't use it
    during a real battle.
[03:53] ---
    Denki!
[03:56] ---
    Huh? Sorry, Iwabe!
[03:58] ---
    Everyone looks pretty carefree…
[04:04] ---
    Sh-Shino Sensei!
[04:07] ---
    I'm going to explain the rules for
    the final practical application exam.
[04:11] ---
    First, tie this white bandana
    around your head.
[04:16] ---
    It represents your life.
[04:19] ---
    If it's taken from you, you fail.
[04:22] ---
    The exam will be conducted as
    an actual combat situation.
[04:25] ---
    The arena is this entire forest.
[04:27] ---
    You will be battling us.
[04:30] ---
    And the time limit is 24 hours.
[04:34] ---
    By the way, this target is just
    like your bandana.
[04:39] ---
    If you destroy it,
[04:41] ---
    we will not be able to fight.
[04:43] ---
    What?
[04:44] ---
    We have to fight Shino Sensei
    and the others for the exam?
[04:46] ---
    This is gonna be easy!
[04:48] ---
    But don't we have to watch out
    for Konohamaru Sensei?
[04:51] ---
    Isn't he aiming to
    become the Hokage?
[04:53] ---
    Oh really?
[04:54] ---
    Then it's not a big deal at all.
[04:56] ---
    And these bandanas and
    targets are only in the way.
[05:00] ---
    Let's just fight regularly.
[05:03] ---
    Then we can't use discretion, can we?
[05:11] ---
    Lord Sixth!
[05:13] ---
    Old Man Kakashi!
[05:15] ---
    Hey, Boruto!
[05:20] ---
    Call me Lord Sixth when
    we're with the others…
[05:24] ---
    I know it's a bother to do, though…
[05:25] ---
    S-Sure.
[05:27] ---
    What are you doing here,
    Old Man Lord Sixth?
[05:31] ---
    What am I doing?
[05:33] ---
    Well, I'm the proctor.
[05:35] ---
    Huh?!
[05:37] ---
    Lord Sixth is the proctor?!
[05:39] ---
    You're kidding, right?
[05:40] ---
    You came to test how
    strong I am, huh?
[05:43] ---
    This is awesome!
[05:44] ---
    The Hidden Leaf's famous
    child genius
[05:46] ---
    who became a jonin at age 12!
[05:48] ---
    The Sixth Hokage who forged peace
    after the Great Ninja War...
[05:51] ---
    And he's going to be our proctor?!
[05:52] ---
    I think this is going to
    turn out to be a drag…
[05:55] ---
    Calm down, guys!
[05:57] ---
    Old Man Kakashi's already retired!
[06:00] ---
    Like I said, call me, Lord Sixth.
[06:02] ---
    He's not our enemy, ya know!
[06:05] ---
    I know all about you guys too.
[06:08] ---
    Huh? What do you mean?
[06:10] ---
    I know that you're the group
    of troublemakers.
[06:13] ---
    That's why I became the proctor.
[06:16] ---
    We can't let troublemakers
    become shinobi.
[06:20] ---
    Huh?
[06:22] ---
    Let me repeat,
[06:23] ---
    we don't need troublemakers.
[06:27] ---
    I'll be watching.
[06:28] ---
    Whether you have what it takes to become
    a worthy shinobi or not.
[06:33] ---
    Let's see... First…
[06:38] ---
    If you can take this bell away
    from me, you'll pass.
[06:41] ---
    How's that?
[06:42] ---
    By the way, headbands and targets
    are only for clarifying decisions.
[06:48] ---
    We don't want to go overboard
    and end up killing someone.
[06:54] ---
    Sounds like fun.
[06:56] ---
    We'll show you what we're made of!
[06:59] ---
    I'd like to ask a question…
[07:03] ---
    There's one bell for
    each participant, right?
[07:05] ---
    Nope, there isn't.
[07:07] ---
    I'm saying there just this one bell.
    That's all.
[07:11] ---
    Wait a second!
[07:13] ---
    Does that mean you're only
    gonna pass one person?!
[07:16] ---
    You can quit if you don't like it.
[07:19] ---
    Although that will be
    an automatic fail.
[07:21] ---
    In this day and age,
    we have enough personnel.
[07:24] ---
    It's not a big deal if
    no one passes.
[07:29] ---
    How can you do something
    so messed up?
[07:31] ---
    What's messed up about it?
[07:34] ---
    That's because, in a real battle,
[07:36] ---
    there's no way to predict what
    you'll come up against.
[07:40] ---
    Don't forget…
[07:41] ---
    In the world that
    you're striving to enter,
[07:45] ---
    one mistake can mean death.
[07:47] ---
    That's the reality.
[07:49] ---
    The Sensei are being scary…
[07:52] ---
    We will be acting as
    Lord Sixth's bodyguards.
[07:55] ---
    To get to Lord Sixth,
    you must get through us.
[07:59] ---
    We don't plan on making it
    easy for you.
[08:02] ---
    And there you have it.
[08:04] ---
    We're not going to
    hold back either...
[08:05] ---
    so, come at us with
    intent to kill.
[08:10] ---
    Show us your resolve.
[08:13] ---
    Are you sure what about you said?
[08:16] ---
    Yeah, because there's no way
    I'll lose to schoolkids
[08:21] ---
    who just pal around and
    refuse to grow up.
[08:27] ---
    You have 24 hours starting now.
[08:30] ---
    On your mark…
[08:31] ---
    No need for that!
[08:33] ---
    I'll settle this…
    right now!
[08:42] ---
    Good grief…
[08:44] ---
    Like father, like son.
    You're so impatient.
[08:46] ---
    Never mind.
    We start now.
[08:52] ---
    What are we gonna do?
[08:55] ---
    They're making fun of us!
[08:56] ---
    Hey, wait!
[08:58] ---
    Who just pals around?
    Yeah right!
[09:01] ---
    I won't let you get away!
[09:10] ---
    I'm gonna become
    a ninja this year, for sure!
[09:12] ---
    I'm determined too,
    and we're not gonna lose!
[09:15] ---
    You two are great rivals!
[09:18] ---
    I won't lose either!
[09:27] ---
    Enko, they're going ahead.
[09:29] ---
    Aren't we going after them?
[09:31] ---
    You say that,
[09:32] ---
    but you want to use Iwabe and
    the others as a diversion,
[09:35] ---
    to preserve your energy.
[09:37] ---
    Well, that won't work. Houki!
[09:39] ---
    What did you say?
[09:41] ---
    Like I'd pull a cheap trick
    like that!
[09:43] ---
    We'll see about that.
[09:45] ---
    Let's get after them!
[09:47] ---
    Damn…
[09:50] ---
    Wait, Doshu!
[09:55] ---
    Going after Lord Sixth blindly
    will only end badly.
[09:58] ---
    We first have to figure out
    a strategy to get the bell first.
[10:02] ---
    But, but…
[10:03] ---
    What do we do if someone gets
    to Lord Sixth first?
[10:07] ---
    There's only one bell.
[10:09] ---
    That's…
[10:11] ---
    Just think about that when
    we come up against him.
[10:15] ---
    Boruto!
[10:16] ---
    It's just an exam.
[10:18] ---
    Don't be so serious.
[10:20] ---
    If it doesn't work out,
[10:21] ---
    we'll just have to practice more
    or take a make-up exam. That's all.
[10:25] ---
    That's so like you, Boruto.
[10:26] ---
    Mitsuki!
[10:27] ---
    But it's a fact that from the moment
    Lord Sixth said start,
[10:30] ---
    everyone's gone off on their own.
[10:34] ---
    Even Shikadai's not here.
[10:37] ---
    It just may be the case that
    we can't just do anything we choose.
[10:42] ---
    You planted a GPS
    on the Lord Sixth!
[10:44] ---
    Good job, Shikadai!
[10:46] ---
    It's a drag to use more energy
    than necessary.
[10:50] ---
    I feel bad for Boruto, but this time,
    we've got to act on our own.
[10:54] ---
    My mom and dad will nag if
    I don't make it as a ninja.
[10:59] ---
    That's why we just have
    to go with what will work.
[11:02] ---
    The Ino-Shika-Cho goes
    back a long time, doesn't it?
[11:05] ---
    Huh?
[11:06] ---
    This is…
[11:07] ---
    It's really close, huh?
[11:09] ---
    Partial Expansion Jutsu!
[11:20] ---
    A bug!
[11:21] ---
    They got us.
[11:22] ---
    This is bad.
[11:24] ---
    We fell for the Sensei's strategy
    to separate us.
[11:34] ---
    Hey, something hasn't felt
    right since earlier, huh?
[11:37] ---
    You sense it too?
[11:40] ---
    You're right.
[11:41] ---
    I think I've seen
    this giant tree before.
[11:46] ---
    Such easy pickings
    when they're scattered.
[11:48] ---
    One genjutsu complete!
[11:56] ---
    Guys, this is an individual exam.
[11:59] ---
    And you're saying that…
[12:00] ---
    because your aim is to
    separate all of us, right?
[12:04] ---
    At least in the beginning,
[12:05] ---
    it's more effective if we work
    together to get rid of obstacles.
[12:10] ---
    And, Anko Sensei…
[12:11] ---
    Sweets have nothing to do
    with the exam.
[12:14] ---
    Oh, but please let me
    have the bell, okay!
[12:16] ---
    This isn't time to talk
    about that, chubs!
[12:21] ---
    So, I'm gonna have to deal
    with the weaklings?
[12:24] ---
    They really underestimated me.
[12:30] ---
    Anko Sensei's battling over there.
[12:32] ---
    Yeah, we've gotta find Lord Sixth
    as soon as we can.
[12:34] ---
    Yeah, early bird gets the worm, right?
[12:38] ---
    Yeah!
[12:44] ---
    What was that?
[12:53] ---
    The early bird gets
    the worm or not…
[12:56] ---
    Did you think you'd get past us
    that easily, hey?
[13:01] ---
    Anyway… Here comes
    the second wave.
[13:12] ---
    Big Bro Konohamaru!
[13:14] ---
    Call me Sensei, hey!
[13:28] ---
    You don't seem to understand
    what Lord Sixth said!
[13:33] ---
    I'll show you what
    a real battle is like.
[13:40] ---
    Hey! Wait, Boruto!
[13:41] ---
    Where are you going, hey?!
[13:43] ---
    As if I'd wait!
[13:45] ---
    I don't waste time
    on low-scoring points,
[13:46] ---
    or troublesome word problems!
[13:49] ---
    Don't you know the first thing
    about exams?!
[13:52] ---
    Are you treating me like
    a word problem, hey?!
[13:55] ---
    My target is only Old Man Kakashi
    for the passing score!
[13:59] ---
    Damn it. He really knows all
    the tricks of the trade…
[14:03] ---
    Well? Don't you need to go with him?
[14:06] ---
    If it was the correct thing to do,
[14:08] ---
    you wouldn't have allowed Boruto
    to pass so easily.
[14:11] ---
    Well, as expected,
[14:13] ---
    you seem to understand better
    than Boruto. But—!
[14:16] ---
    Let's do this, Class Rep!
[14:18] ---
    Right!
[14:25] ---
    Hey, how are we gonna
    find Lord Sixth?
[14:28] ---
    I don't know, but right now…
[14:31] ---
    I'm gonna search from
    the top of the highest tree.
[14:38] ---
    Wind Style: Breakthrough.
[14:41] ---
    Whoa!
[14:43] ---
    Lord Sixth is up ahead.
[14:46] ---
    If you want to pass,
    you must take me down first.
[14:49] ---
    But it will be impossible
    to reach him.
[14:52] ---
    That's because, I—
[14:53] ---
    Lightning Style: Snake Lightning!
[14:58] ---
    Boruto, you go on ahead.
[15:00] ---
    What?!
[15:01] ---
    Leave this to me.
[15:03] ---
    Are you sure?
[15:05] ---
    Yes. I want to battle Sensei.
[15:07] ---
    Okay, I'm going ahead!
[15:11] ---
    Hey!
[15:14] ---
    Let's do this, Shino Sensei.
[15:21] ---
    All right, so where is Lord Sixth?
[15:24] ---
    A very carefree
    and simplistic method…
[15:28] ---
    but searching from up high
    isn't such a bad idea.
[15:41] ---
    Shadow Clones, huh?
[15:45] ---
    Too easy!
[15:52] ---
    I'm ready, Old Man Kakashi!
[15:55] ---
    I'm gonna pass the exam!
[16:19] ---
    Snakes!
[16:27] ---
    Just like a Special Jonin…
[16:29] ---
    I guess you're not just some
    middle-aged lady who loves sweets.
[16:32] ---
    You only realized that now?
[16:34] ---
    Goes to show you shouldn't take
    middle-aged ladies for granted!
[16:39] ---
    Damn it!
[16:41] ---
    Shikadai!
[16:47] ---
    Mud Wall!
[16:55] ---
    When did you all—?
[16:57] ---
    The genjutsu counter that
    you taught us worked perfectly.
[17:01] ---
    There's nowhere to run.
[17:03] ---
    Guess you could call it
    a reversal of fortune…
[17:06] ---
    You kids are pretty tough…
[17:12] ---
    I'm not letting you get past me,
    Shino Sensei.
[17:16] ---
    How unusual…
[17:17] ---
    You've never shown this
    much determination before.
[17:20] ---
    I thought you weren't too interested
    in exams like this.
[17:23] ---
    That might have been the old me.
[17:26] ---
    But now, through Boruto,
    I've started to see many things.
[17:31] ---
    At the very least…
[17:33] ---
    I want to help Boruto,
[17:35] ---
    pass the exam with him and
    become ninja together.
[17:39] ---
    And one more thing.
[17:41] ---
    In the beginning,
[17:42] ---
    I said there was nothing more
    that I could learn from you.
[17:45] ---
    Now I know that you are the one
    I must challenge
[17:47] ---
    with everything I've got.
[17:49] ---
    It seems…
[17:51] ---
    I'll need to get
    a bit more serious here.
[18:07] ---
    The Sharingan, huh?
[18:09] ---
    So, you'd already awakened it?
[18:11] ---
    But it looks like you still
    haven't mastered using it.
[18:14] ---
    Summoning!
[18:18] ---
    What is this thing?!
[18:20] ---
    Sarada!
[18:22] ---
    Thanks.
[18:23] ---
    Lightning Style!
[18:27] ---
    Be careful!
[18:28] ---
    Konohamaru Sensei's true power
    is nothing like this.
[18:32] ---
    Nue, huh?
[18:33] ---
    It's much smaller than
    the last time I saw it,
[18:36] ---
    but it's still nasty.
[18:38] ---
    Whether it's the Sharingan or Nue…
[18:41] ---
    they're more troublesome
    than I imagined, hey.
[18:44] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[18:49] ---
    Did Naruto teach you
    the Shadow Clone?
[18:52] ---
    You think I'd ask for anything
    from that stupid old man?
[19:07] ---
    You used Substitution to
    switch places with my clone?!
[19:10] ---
    You and your father are so alike.
[19:13] ---
    We are not!
[19:28] ---
    You're pretty good.
[19:37] ---
    I didn't think you'd get this far.
[19:39] ---
    I must say, you are his son.
[19:43] ---
    You say that,
[19:44] ---
    but you still have your insects
    that you haven't used.
[19:48] ---
    Anyway, it makes no difference to me.
[19:51] ---
    Well, I can't kill
    my own student, can I?
[19:54] ---
    Anyway, there's more to the exam.
[19:57] ---
    Go on ahead.
[19:58] ---
    Yes.
[19:59] ---
    But Boruto might have
    already settled this.
[20:03] ---
    That's not possible.
[20:05] ---
    The reason is because,
    Lord Sixth is not lenient.
[20:12] ---
    To have come this far before
    even graduating from the Academy…
[20:17] ---
    Even in my eyes,
    you're a cut above the rest.
[20:21] ---
    A real genius.
[20:23] ---
    You finally get it?
[20:25] ---
    But it's no good.
[20:29] ---
    You are not suited
    to become a ninja.
[20:31] ---
    What?!
[20:33] ---
    You lack one decisive element.
[20:37] ---
    I don't wanna hear
    a lecture from you!
[20:42] ---
    If I take that bell from you,
    I pass, right?
[20:47] ---
    Of course.
[20:49] ---
    Here we go!
[20:50] ---
    Yeah!
[20:51] ---
    – Wind Style! Gale Palm!
    – Wind Style! Gale Palm!
[20:53] ---
    – Take this… Lethal…
    – Take this… Lethal…
[20:54] ---
    Boruto Stream!
[21:09] ---
    It's mine!
[21:17] ---
    Not again!
[21:21] ---
    You hid the real you underground,
    to lure me out with clones…
[21:26] ---
    You almost got the bell.
[21:34] ---
    Taijutsu, ninjutsu…
[21:36] ---
    You excel all around,
    and are a cut above the rest.
[21:39] ---
    You have the skills of a genin…
[21:41] ---
    no, you have the skill level
    of a chunin.
[21:44] ---
    Ouch!
[21:45] ---
    And that's the reason why,
    this is the end of the line for you.
[21:49] ---
    Damn it!
[23:25] ---
    You can't just become a ninja.
[23:27] ---
    That is, unless you have resolve.
[23:29] ---
    How would you know
    anything about me?!
[23:32] ---
    I know plenty.
[23:33] ---
    This year's Academy students
    are horrible.
[23:36] ---
    They underestimate what a ninja is.
[23:37] ---
    It must be your influence on them.
[23:40] ---
    That's—?!
[23:41] ---
    Me?
[23:42] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:46] ---
    "A Shinobi's Resolve"
    
    
[23:48] ---
    I just can't acknowledge
    this group as ninja.
