[00:07] ---
    He's late.
[00:08] ---
    What is he doing?!
[00:12] ---
    You're always so hard on Boruto.
[00:15] ---
    I have a goal.
[00:18] ---
    And in order to reach it,
    I have to be reliable and fulfill my missions.
[00:21] ---
    I can't afford to be late!
[00:25] ---
    By the way, what about you?
[00:28] ---
    Huh? Me?
[00:29] ---
    Yeah, like, are there
    certain missions you'd prefer to do?
[00:33] ---
    I never asked you, so…?
[00:37] ---
    Well…
[00:39] ---
    I'm happy doing missions
    that Boruto wants to do.
[00:44] ---
    I don't mean to nag you, but…
[00:47] ---
    Don't you have a will
    of your own?
[00:52] ---
    This is something I decided
    on my own.
[01:00] ---
    Yes, this is…
[01:03] ---
    something I decided myself.
[02:36] ---
    The Path Lit by the Full Moon
    
    
[02:57] ---
    He's awake?
[03:08] ---
    You drank the medicine
    that I prepared earlier…
[03:11] ---
    so you'll be okay.
[03:13] ---
    Now, take one more dose…
[03:16] ---
    and you'll feel better.
[03:20] ---
    Here…
[03:41] ---
    When he's fully awake,
    please bring him to my room.
[03:45] ---
    Take care of the rest.
[03:48] ---
    Got it.
[03:55] ---
    Hey.
[03:56] ---
    Hey.
[04:00] ---
    Are you okay?
[04:06] ---
    Who…
[04:09] ---
    am I?
[04:14] ---
    We're on the sixth attempt now.
[04:19] ---
    SNAKE
    
    It would be nice
    if the next one goes as desired…
[04:26] ---
    Why was I lying in bed?
[04:28] ---
    It figures you don't remember
    the bad stuff…
[04:32] ---
    Huh?
[04:33] ---
    You failed your top secret mission
[04:34] ---
    as part of Lord Orochimaru's
    two-man team.
[04:37] ---
    You were injured
[04:39] ---
    and Lord Orochimaru
    had to carry you back to this hideout.
[04:43] ---
    You don't remember?
[05:00] ---
    Pretty good!
[05:09] ---
    I-I'm sorry. I…just…
[05:12] ---
    Your body seems to remember…
    that you are a ninja.
[05:18] ---
    Huh?
[05:24] ---
    You were captured by
    a certain man in the city…
[05:26] ---
    and your memories were erased.
[05:28] ---
    I'm really sorry…
[05:30] ---
    I just wanted to make sure.
[05:32] ---
    If your shinobi abilities
    had been wiped out too,
[05:35] ---
    Lord Orochimaru would have been
    really disappointed.
[05:38] ---
    Oro…chi…maru…
[05:44] ---
    Yes, I am Orochimaru.
[05:48] ---
    And I'm your parent.
[05:50] ---
    My parent?
[05:53] ---
    That's right.
[05:54] ---
    Which is why you're special to me.
[05:57] ---
    And why we shall go
    retrieve your memory.
[06:00] ---
    Retrieve my memories?
[06:02] ---
    How?
[06:07] ---
    This man is a shinobi
[06:09] ---
    who has the ability to steal
    others' memories…
[06:12] ---
    …and stockpile them as his own.
[06:17] ---
    He can also manipulate people by
    implanting different memories,
[06:22] ---
    or of course, reinserting the very ones
    he stole in the first place.
[06:27] ---
    Mitsuki…
[06:28] ---
    your memory was taken by this man.
[06:32] ---
    In order to restore you,
[06:33] ---
    we must capture this man and
    transplant your old memories.
[06:38] ---
    We call this man Log,
    and his ability, Experience Stealing.
[06:46] ---
    The two of us shall return
    to where this man is.
[06:50] ---
    Just a minute.
[06:52] ---
    Then…
[06:54] ---
    Our previous mission,
[06:55] ---
    why were you and I
    confronting this man…?
[07:01] ---
    Naturally…to steal every bit of intel
[07:04] ---
    he'd collected up until now…
[07:06] ---
    …by taking him alive.
[07:09] ---
    Except that,
[07:10] ---
    he swiped our precious intel instead.
[07:14] ---
    You said your name
    is Orochimaru, right…?
[07:17] ---
    If you were with me on the mission…
[07:19] ---
    then your memories
    might have been doctored too?!
[07:23] ---
    And also,
    are you my mother or father?!
[07:29] ---
    That doesn't matter.
[07:33] ---
    You used to know that I am
    one of the Legendary Sannin.
[07:38] ---
    And that I'm no ordinary shinobi…
[07:45] ---
    Then why would you take someone
    as weak as me along on such a mission?
[07:49] ---
    You seem to underestimate yourself…
[07:52] ---
    I already told you…
[07:54] ---
    You're special.
[07:56] ---
    You're my child.
[08:00] ---
    You just don't remember right now…
[08:02] ---
    I am quite fond of you.
[08:06] ---
    This is for our sake too,
    as parent and child.
[08:10] ---
    But…
[08:13] ---
    You, as a child, ought to just listen
    obediently to me.
[08:25] ---
    I just…
[08:27] ---
    I just want to know who I am…
[08:30] ---
    And that will all be settled
    if you come with me.
[08:42] ---
    Beyond this point is his barrier.
[08:45] ---
    What are we going to do?
[08:47] ---
    You're going to take it down.
[08:49] ---
    Huh?
[08:51] ---
    That's why I brought you along
    the last time.
[08:54] ---
    Only you can breach this barrier.
[08:58] ---
    I…don't have that
    kind of power…
[09:00] ---
    You've just forgotten.
[09:03] ---
    You possess a special power.
[09:06] ---
    I will show how to use it.
[09:27] ---
    That's your power…
[09:29] ---
    Now, let's go.
[09:38] ---
    Looks like we were noticed, after all.
[09:42] ---
    You really didn't have to come to me.
[09:44] ---
    I was planning to make
    my way to you eventually…
[09:47] ---
    To get the key
    that opens that thing.
[09:50] ---
    Paralysis Jutsu!
[09:56] ---
    I'll have you return it this time…
[09:59] ---
    Along with this child's memories.
[10:01] ---
    Oh?
[10:03] ---
    So, my Paralysis Jutsu
    doesn't work on you anymore.
[10:09] ---
    They're fast!
[10:41] ---
    Nice armor…
[10:43] ---
    My fangs can't penetrate.
[10:45] ---
    Did you modify it?
[10:46] ---
    You're not scary if
    your poison can't reach me.
[10:50] ---
    Ninja Art: Armor Eater!
[10:58] ---
    I let you get away easily before…
[11:01] ---
    But not this time.
[11:04] ---
    Mitsu…ki…
[11:07] ---
    You…
[11:09] ---
    have a Sage Power…
[11:12] ---
    and…
[11:17] ---
    Yeah…
[11:18] ---
    He's the one
    I really need to watch…
[11:21] ---
    He gave me a lot of trouble
    last time.
[11:24] ---
    I can't move!
[11:27] ---
    Heh, you didn't release
    the Paralysis Jutsu.
[11:31] ---
    Looks like you've forgotten
    your own powers.
[11:35] ---
    Without that power
[11:37] ---
    you're just an ordinary brat!
[12:00] ---
    You were too preoccupied
    with the larger snake…
[12:04] ---
    But even the venom of a small snake,
    one that I can slip through
[12:07] ---
    a gap in your armor,
    is sufficient.
[12:12] ---
    The poison of the Curse Mark
    will render him
[12:13] ---
    immobile and mute
    for a while.
[12:16] ---
    Mitsuki, keep an eye on him
    for a little bit.
[12:21] ---
    You can move now, can't you?
[12:27] ---
    What are you going to do?
[12:28] ---
    There's something I'm looking for here.
[12:31] ---
    It won't take me long to find it.
[12:34] ---
    Just don't go near him,
    no matter what.
[12:58] ---
    Such strong poison…
[13:02] ---
    Don't worry…
[13:05] ---
    I can just barely speak…
[13:08] ---
    The antidote I prepared…
[13:11] ---
    …was only this good, huh?
[13:14] ---
    But it's…painful like this…
[13:18] ---
    Come here…
[13:19] ---
    Please take my mask off.
[13:23] ---
    Are you trying to deceive me?
[13:25] ---
    No…
[13:26] ---
    If you take this mask off,
[13:28] ---
    you'll know that it's just the opposite.
[13:31] ---
    I'll say this much.
[13:34] ---
    The one who's deceiving you…
[13:37] ---
    is Orochimaru.
[13:40] ---
    I bet…Orochimaru hasn't
    told you anything…
[13:44] ---
    none of what's really going on.
[13:47] ---
    Just like it was with me.
[13:51] ---
    Don't you know at all?
[13:54] ---
    Who you really are?
[13:57] ---
    I-I'm…Orochimaru's child.
[14:01] ---
    And…
[14:03] ---
    I erased extraneous memories last time,
[14:07] ---
    but…now…
    he's using that against you, huh?
[14:12] ---
    Now…come here…
[14:15] ---
    and take my mask off.
[14:34] ---
    I'm also…Mitsuki.
[14:37] ---
    Just one that was made before you.
[14:41] ---
    What's going on?
[14:43] ---
    We're both artificial beings
    created by Orochimaru.
[14:47] ---
    Mere vessels to fulfill his ambitions.
[14:50] ---
    "Tsuki" is an old name for a vessel.
[14:51] ---
    VESSEL
    
    "Tsuki" is an old name for a vessel.
[14:53] ---
    And "Mi" is the sixth
    of the 12 zodiac creatures…
[14:54] ---
    SNAKE
    
    And "Mi" is the sixth
    of the 12 zodiac creatures…
[14:56] ---
    …the snake.
[14:57] ---
    That's where our name,
    Mitsuki, comes from.
[14:59] ---
    MITSUKI
    
    That's where our name,
    Mitsuki, comes from.
[15:03] ---
    We're artificial beings?
[15:05] ---
    The thing he's searching for, is the seed
    that served as our source material.
[15:11] ---
    He cultured it to create both of us.
[15:15] ---
    It's also why you're able to break
    the barrier that was placed here.
[15:19] ---
    I stole that seed from
    Orochimaru to destroy it…
[15:23] ---
    …that was my plan.
[15:28] ---
    But, in order to open
    the case that it's in,
[15:32] ---
    I needed a key that
    Orochimaru possesses…
[15:36] ---
    But why destroy it?
[15:38] ---
    Life produced artificially isn't human.
[15:42] ---
    It's a construct born from a selfish ego!
[15:47] ---
    Something created by twisting
    the laws of nature by pretending to be god!
[15:49] ---
    We are vessels of his greed,
[15:52] ---
    a mere projection of
    Orochimaru's narcissism.
[15:54] ---
    I was created as Orochimaru's son.
[15:57] ---
    I was exceptional,
    and when I escaped his side,
[16:01] ---
    he desired a replacement.
[16:04] ---
    Orochimaru will keep making
    more beings like us to suit his whims.
[16:11] ---
    Neither you nor I were meant
    to exist in this world.
[16:15] ---
    I'll return things to
    the way they should be.
[16:19] ---
    But first…
[16:21] ---
    I'm going to get rid of you…
[16:23] ---
    Orochimaru!
[16:26] ---
    No matter how you came
    into this world,
[16:29] ---
    you two are no different
    from any other.
[16:33] ---
    You are both my absolute
    and perfect children,
[16:36] ---
    whom I cannot help but love.
[16:38] ---
    You bear within you,
    more power than I.
[16:42] ---
    Do you know how much I've eagerly
    awaited your existence?
[16:46] ---
    Is it wrong for a shinobi like me
    to desire children?
[16:51] ---
    If there is one thing in this world
    that people are forgiven for,
[16:56] ---
    it is acts born of and done for love!
[17:02] ---
    Do you really think that gives you
    license to do whatever you want?
[17:06] ---
    Do you really think you can
    control everything?!
[17:09] ---
    I don't consider what I do
    to be pretending to be a god…
[17:13] ---
    I'm only abiding by
    what god has granted us…
[17:17] ---
    That's all.
[17:18] ---
    Mitsuki!
[17:20] ---
    You're still a child,
    and you may not understand…
[17:23] ---
    But you'll eventually realize
    that this is wrong!
[17:25] ---
    You need to stop Orochimaru!
[17:28] ---
    As the adult version of you,
[17:30] ---
    I'm telling you the time to do so,
    will definitely come one day!
[17:33] ---
    Mitsuki, he's trying to deceive you
    because you're a child.
[17:38] ---
    I have the seed,
    and I have the key.
[17:41] ---
    Come here, Mitsuki.
[17:44] ---
    I'll make you a much
    better sibling, okay?
[17:48] ---
    Hey! Mitsuki!
[17:50] ---
    Mitsuki, now!
[17:53] ---
    Mitsuki!
[17:54] ---
    Now!
[18:08] ---
    Since I'm just a kid…
[18:11] ---
    all that doesn't really matter to me!
[18:15] ---
    The things you adults are
    talking about, that is.
[18:21] ---
    As for anything to do with me…
    I'll decide for myself!
[18:52] ---
    Seems he finally
    achieved Sage Transformation.
[18:55] ---
    Yes.
[19:02] ---
    What did you put into the scroll this time?
[19:06] ---
    Well…let's just call it
    a photo of the sun.
[19:13] ---
    The sun, huh?
[19:15] ---
    He finally managed on the sixth try…
[19:19] ---
    to not go for either of our choices.
[19:21] ---
    But instead, he said he'll find
    a third option all on his own.
[19:26] ---
    However, will it go well?
[19:29] ---
    I'd rather avoid
    a seventh undertaking.
[19:32] ---
    And I don't want to use that
    memory-removing drug again.
[19:39] ---
    As an artificial being who
    can carve out his own path…
[19:42] ---
    he'll succeed in illuminating the dark.
[19:45] ---
    I was afraid neither of you would
    be able to become the light.
[19:50] ---
    Since you and him…
    are both my children.
[19:57] ---
    But isn't this
    the result you desired?
[19:59] ---
    Having set up and put on
    such an elaborate charade.
[20:04] ---
    Well, he likely can't become
    the light on his own.
[20:08] ---
    It's only if he's able to find a sun
[20:11] ---
    TOP SECRET MISSION COMPLETED
    
    who will stick by his side
    and shine upon him…
[20:14] ---
    will he become moonlight and
    illuminate the dark.
[20:20] ---
    So not as a vessel in
    subterranean darkness,
[20:23] ---
    but as a moon in the darkness
    of the sky, eh?
[20:26] ---
    A cracked cup vessel
    can't hold anything, you know.
[20:30] ---
    But a broken moon in the night
    will eventually wax full.
[20:36] ---
    Yes, my real name is…
[20:44] ---
    Mitsuki.
[20:51] ---
    Hey, guys!
[20:53] ---
    I'll be right there!
[20:58] ---
    You're late!
[21:00] ---
    I'm so sorry!
[21:01] ---
    There was this lost kid
    on my way here,
[21:04] ---
    so I helped him look for his mom.
[21:07] ---
    Lies.
[21:08] ---
    What? Why'd you just decide
    that I was lying?
[21:11] ---
    Because it happens all the time, right?
[21:15] ---
    Hey, Mitsuki!
[21:17] ---
    You believe me, don't you?!
[21:20] ---
    I don't really care either way…
[21:23] ---
    – Huh?
    – Huh?
[21:24] ---
    Since I've already decided
    to trust both of you.
[21:31] ---
    Let's go.
[21:33] ---
    We'll be late.
[21:34] ---
    – Right.
    – Okay.
[21:45] ---
    I can finally see the sun.
[23:26] ---
    Team 7 will be going on
    our first mission soon, huh?
[23:28] ---
    We'll carry out any sort of mission that
    gets thrown our way, successfully!
[23:32] ---
    Missions are ranked, aren't they?
[23:34] ---
    I wonder which lowest-ranked
    one we'll be….
[23:36] ---
    Well, let's just start off with
    the highest-ranked one
[23:39] ---
    right off the bat and show them
    just how awesome Team 7 is!
[23:43] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:46] ---
    "Team 7: The First Mission!"
    
    
[23:49] ---
    It will be a piece of cake,
    even by myself!
    
    
[23:51] ---
    TEAM 7: THE FIRST MISSION!
