**[00:07] ---**
*We passed the Academy's*
*graduation exams,*
**[00:09] ---**
*and we're on the path*
*to becoming real shinobi.*
**[00:14] ---**
*And finally,*
*it's time for our first mission!*
**[00:21] ---**
FIRE
**[00:24] ---**
HOKAGE
**[00:25] ---**
HOKAGE
Okay, listen up.
**[00:26] ---**
HOKAGE
This is where all jonin, chunin,
and genin ninja…
**[00:27] ---**
This is where all jonin, chunin,
and genin ninja…
**[00:28] ---**
receive their mission assignments.
**[00:32] ---**
You probably know already,
**[00:34] ---**
but for every ninja mission,
there is someone who requests it.
**[00:38] ---**
JONIN
CHUNIN
GENIN
Missions can range from conflict
resolution between nations,
**[00:40] ---**
INFORMATION - RECEPTIONIST
to preserving peace in a village,
**[00:42] ---**
a guarded escort...
**[00:44] ---**
looking for something
that's been lost by an individual,
**[00:46] ---**
and a number of other things.
**[00:48] ---**
We'll carry out any sort of mission that
gets thrown our way, successfully!
**[00:52] ---**
Mission are ranked, aren't they?
**[00:55] ---**
I understand they're ranked high
to low from S to D levels.
**[01:00] ---**
And that administrators assign
teams according to their abilities…
**[01:05] ---**
Oh? Exactly.
**[01:08] ---**
You know so much, Sarada.
**[01:10] ---**
Everyone should know this much.
**[01:13] ---**
All right!
**[01:14] ---**
Let's just start with the highest-ranked
one right off the bat
**[01:17] ---**
and show them just
how awesome Team 7 is!
**[01:21] ---**
Sorry to dampen
your enthusiasm, but…
**[01:24] ---**
newbies like you are broken in slowly
with C or D missions at first.
**[01:30] ---**
Shucks!
I guess it can't be helped.
**[01:34] ---**
This is our first mission, and if it's gonna
be something at that level,
**[01:37] ---**
let's just wrap it up quickly and
get paid our reward by our sponsor.
**[01:41] ---**
Is that how it goes?
**[01:42] ---**
Yeah…
**[01:43] ---**
It will be a piece of cake,
even by myself!
**[01:45] ---**
"A piece of cake,
even by yourself," huh?
**[01:50] ---**
Lord Seventh…
**[01:52] ---**
No mission is "a piece of cake,"
ya know.
**[03:27] ---**
HOKAGE
**[03:29] ---**
*Team 7: The First Mission!*
Why are we here?
**[03:31] ---**
*Team 7: The First Mission!*
It's tradition to receive
**[03:32] ---**
your first mission assignment
from the Hokage himself.
**[03:35] ---**
You should feel honored.
**[03:37] ---**
– Yes!
– Yes!
**[03:40] ---**
Now then…
**[03:42] ---**
Team 7's first mission is…
expelling bandits.
**[03:46] ---**
Yes…
**[03:53] ---**
A small village at
the border between
**[03:56] ---**
the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind
called the Green Banks,
**[03:58] ---**
is requesting this mission.
**[04:01] ---**
This area is dotted
with farming villages
**[04:03] ---**
who've maintained their way of life
for generations.
**[04:07] ---**
This year, the harvest has
been poor due to drought.
**[04:10] ---**
As a result, the neighboring village
is stealing food
**[04:13] ---**
from the Green Banks' storehouses,
**[04:16] ---**
and they want us to stop them.
**[04:18] ---**
In other words,
it's a conflict between villages?
**[04:21] ---**
Yeah…
**[04:22] ---**
We just have to stop this fight, right?
**[04:26] ---**
A piece of cake, after all.
**[04:28] ---**
Don't act so smug!
**[04:30] ---**
You guys need to take
your missions…
**[04:32] ---**
more seriously, got it?!
**[04:35] ---**
"You guys"?
**[04:37] ---**
He may have knack for these things,
but he's stupid and reckless.
**[04:39] ---**
So please don't lump me with him.
**[04:41] ---**
Sarada, damn it!
**[04:42] ---**
What?!
**[04:44] ---**
That critique had
a touch of admiration.
**[04:47] ---**
H-Hey!
**[04:48] ---**
Anyway…
**[04:50] ---**
Even if it's a D-rank,
a mission is a mission.
**[04:53] ---**
If you take it lightly,
you'll get burned.
**[04:56] ---**
Also, teamwork is very important.
**[05:02] ---**
Give it your all!
**[05:08] ---**
Boruto…
**[05:09] ---**
It's finally time for
your first mission!
**[05:12] ---**
You seem kinda happy,
Big Brother!
**[05:15] ---**
You think so?
**[05:17] ---**
Oh yeah, Mom.
**[05:19] ---**
What was your first mission like?
**[05:22] ---**
Huh? Mine?
**[05:25] ---**
Well…
**[05:26] ---**
I just remember being nervous.
**[05:31] ---**
Nervous?
**[05:32] ---**
Like nervous with excitement?
**[05:34] ---**
No.
**[05:35] ---**
There were wars still
going on back then.
**[05:39] ---**
So, there were lots
of risky missions.
**[05:43] ---**
Even if it was my first mission,
**[05:44] ---**
it wasn't something to be
so excited about.
**[05:48] ---**
Hmm…
**[05:50] ---**
Oh no! I've gotta go.
**[05:55] ---**
I'm off!
**[05:57] ---**
Be careful.
**[05:58] ---**
Good luck, Big Brother!
**[06:00] ---**
Okay!
**[06:02] ---**
I'll wrap it up quick!
**[06:05] ---**
*I'm gonna show that*
*stupid old man that*
**[06:08] ---**
*a mission like this is*
*a piece of cake for me!*
**[06:17] ---**
Okay, it's about time to get going.
**[06:23] ---**
I've given Konohamaru the details
of the situation over there.
**[06:28] ---**
It all sounds
a little suspicious to me.
**[06:33] ---**
That's right!
**[06:34] ---**
It's Shikadai's first mission
today too, right?
**[06:36] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:39] ---**
Guess we've both reached
the age where
**[06:42] ---**
we're worrying about
our sons' first missions.
**[06:45] ---**
What a drag.
**[06:48] ---**
That's so like you, Madame!
**[06:50] ---**
"Madame" sounds just lovely!
**[06:52] ---**
Damn it!
**[06:53] ---**
They call this a guarded escort?
**[06:56] ---**
This is definitely not what I pictured.
**[06:59] ---**
Are we really bodyguards?
**[07:01] ---**
It's more like following around
a rich lady on a shopping spree.
**[07:05] ---**
So cute!
**[07:06] ---**
Shall we take a break soon, Cho-Cho?
**[07:09] ---**
I know a shop nearby that
has the most divine sweets!
**[07:16] ---**
Oh my, then we must go there!
**[07:18] ---**
We'll have to get there quickly
before they sell out.
**[07:20] ---**
They only make
a limited amount every day.
**[07:22] ---**
Really? Oh then…
**[07:24] ---**
Hey, you two!
**[07:26] ---**
– We have to hurry!
– Hurry!
**[07:27] ---**
Chubs is the only one
getting carried away.
**[07:31] ---**
Damn it, what a drag!
**[07:34] ---**
I'm sure Shikadai is doing
his best around now.
**[07:38] ---**
Yeah… I hope so.
**[07:48] ---**
Hey.
**[07:49] ---**
What?
**[07:50] ---**
I just want to make it
clear from the start.
**[07:52] ---**
Don't do anything to
**[07:54] ---**
leave a mark on
my record, okay?
**[07:57] ---**
Huh?
**[07:58] ---**
I don't want anything to cloud
my road to becoming the Hokage.
**[08:02] ---**
I don't want your failures to
be reflected on my record!
**[08:07] ---**
Shut up!
**[08:09] ---**
What's up with that attitude?!
**[08:13] ---**
You two really get along well.
**[08:14] ---**
– Are you kidding?!
– Are you kidding?!
**[08:17] ---**
Let's take a little break.
**[08:22] ---**
Team 7, before we start
this first mission,
**[08:26] ---**
there's something I need
to tell you.
**[08:29] ---**
Lord Hokage already
told you this, but…
**[08:32] ---**
what's important to the success
of a mission is teamwork.
**[08:37] ---**
We've heard that already.
It's getting boring.
**[08:41] ---**
Just hear Sensei out!
**[08:44] ---**
Fine.
**[08:46] ---**
And also, to respect
each other's skills and worth.
**[08:50] ---**
And one more thing…
**[08:52] ---**
This is the most crucial part
of a mission.
**[08:57] ---**
When you encounter danger,
don't try to resolve it alone.
**[09:01] ---**
Always work as a team
that includes myself,
**[09:04] ---**
or figure out a plan amongst
the three of you.
**[09:08] ---**
Never take action
on your own, got it?
**[09:11] ---**
Boruto, listen carefully.
**[09:14] ---**
All this refers to you.
**[09:16] ---**
Huh? Why?!
**[09:18] ---**
Because you're the most
reckless one! Why else?!
**[09:22] ---**
Huh?
**[09:23] ---**
I agree.
**[09:25] ---**
What? You too, Mitsuki?
**[09:28] ---**
Understand?!
**[09:31] ---**
– Yes!
– Yes!
**[09:43] ---**
Is that it?
**[09:48] ---**
If you can't discern various kinds
of danger,
**[09:51] ---**
you've got a long way to go.
**[09:53] ---**
Okay, break's over!
**[09:59] ---**
It's coming into view.
**[10:12] ---**
Once we cross this bridge,
we'll reach our destination.
**[10:18] ---**
It doesn't seem like we can cross.
**[10:29] ---**
*Is this the only bridge?*
**[10:44] ---**
I believe they're the shinobi
from the Hidden Leaf, Lady Kiri.
**[10:48] ---**
I see.
**[10:54] ---**
They're just kids!
Will they be any good?
**[10:59] ---**
I've heard that
they're definitely skilled.
**[11:04] ---**
Lower the bridge.
**[11:13] ---**
Wow!
**[11:16] ---**
*So, the drawbridge can only*
*be controlled from that side.*
**[11:26] ---**
Are you from Hidden Leaf Village?
**[11:27] ---**
Yes.
**[11:28] ---**
Welcome and thank you for coming.
**[11:30] ---**
W-What's that?
**[11:32] ---**
Oh…
**[11:34] ---**
They're collecting toll for the bridge.
**[11:37] ---**
Toll?
**[11:38] ---**
In order to sustain our poor village
which has little resources…
**[11:41] ---**
our previous village head
planned the bridge
**[11:44] ---**
and personally oversaw
its construction.
**[11:47] ---**
Thanks to him, our village is
faring much better than in the past.
**[11:52] ---**
He seems to have been
a great leader.
**[11:56] ---**
Oh yes…
**[11:58] ---**
He always called
the villagers his family,
**[12:01] ---**
and gave it his all to help us.
**[12:03] ---**
He would give his life
to protect the village.
**[12:05] ---**
That's how great he was.
**[12:09] ---**
You said previous village head.
Did he retire?
**[12:14] ---**
He passed away suddenly,
three months ago.
**[12:18] ---**
His daughter took over his position.
**[12:22] ---**
Three months ago…
**[12:24] ---**
That's just about the time the village
started getting attacked?
**[12:27] ---**
Yes…
**[12:28] ---**
After we installed
the new village head,
**[12:30] ---**
the neighboring villages started
treating us with contempt.
**[12:34] ---**
That's been the rumor going around.
**[12:48] ---**
This way please…
**[12:50] ---**
DISCUSSION
**[12:58] ---**
This is Lady Kiri,
the head of this village.
**[13:02] ---**
She's still just a kid!
**[13:04] ---**
Shh!
**[13:05] ---**
Are you from the Hidden Leaf?
**[13:07] ---**
Yes…
**[13:09] ---**
Answer one question for me
before starting this mission.
**[13:13] ---**
You sent these mere children
to fulfill our request…
**[13:16] ---**
is the Hidden Leaf short
on manpower?
**[13:18] ---**
What?!
**[13:19] ---**
They are all skilled.
I can vouch for that.
**[13:22] ---**
I see…
**[13:23] ---**
I just hope that statement
doesn't turn into a lie.
**[13:27] ---**
Let me go over the request
once more.
**[13:29] ---**
Yes.
**[13:31] ---**
Due to drought, this year's harvest
has been very scarce.
**[13:36] ---**
Not only for our village,
but for this entire region.
**[13:41] ---**
As a result, people from
the Pale Blue Valley
**[13:44] ---**
have frequently been stealing provisions
from our storehouses.
**[13:48] ---**
Yes, that is our understanding.
**[13:50] ---**
And our job is to stop them
from ever attacking again.
**[13:56] ---**
Yes, at first it was.
**[13:59] ---**
At first?
**[14:02] ---**
Until now, we've thwarted
the enemy by ourselves.
**[14:07] ---**
However…
**[14:08] ---**
They've hired shinobi.
**[14:11] ---**
Could you leave us alone
for a moment?
**[14:13] ---**
– Huh?
– Huh?
**[14:16] ---**
Hey! What are you doing?!
**[14:19] ---**
Let's go.
**[14:20] ---**
C'mon!
**[14:26] ---**
This makes the mission
a B-rank or higher…
**[14:29] ---**
This will be too difficult
for the genin.
**[14:37] ---**
I wonder what's gonna happen?
**[14:40] ---**
If we're dealing with shinobi,
**[14:42] ---**
I doubt we'll be taking
on this mission.
**[14:44] ---**
How can you say that?!
**[14:46] ---**
We've come all the way here.
**[14:48] ---**
We can't just turn around
and go home.
**[14:49] ---**
It will look so uncool!
**[14:51] ---**
I agree that it won't look good
**[14:53] ---**
if we end up quitting partway
through the mission.
**[14:56] ---**
A mission must always
be completed, right?
**[14:59] ---**
Then we have no choice
but to do this.
**[15:01] ---**
That's right!
**[15:02] ---**
Hey! Let's work together to try and
convince Konohamaru Sensei!
**[15:09] ---**
What?!
**[15:09] ---**
It came from over there!
**[15:14] ---**
What happened?!
**[15:33] ---**
*So heavy!*
**[15:37] ---**
Boruto, don't take any risks!
**[15:40] ---**
You've got no backbone.
**[15:46] ---**
Are you…from the Hidden Leaf?
**[15:51] ---**
Ashimaru!
**[16:02] ---**
I couldn't do anything…
**[16:05] ---**
Looks like turning back now
will be a blight
**[16:08] ---**
on the honor of the Hidden Leaf…
**[16:13] ---**
Hurry and tend to him!
**[16:19] ---**
It seems the enemy isn't after
what's in the storehouse.
**[16:25] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[16:26] ---**
Will you be completely honest
with me?
**[16:33] ---**
There's nothing to fear.
**[16:34] ---**
Just leave it to me.
**[16:36] ---**
Lady Kiri, if you order us,
we'll take up arms as well!
**[16:40] ---**
Absolutely not!
**[16:41] ---**
Why do you think I asked
the Hidden Leaf shinobi to come?
**[16:44] ---**
But!
**[16:45] ---**
Let me handle this!
**[16:49] ---**
Follow me.
**[16:52] ---**
You too.
**[16:55] ---**
Guess the mission is on.
**[16:57] ---**
It's my chance to show my stuff.
**[16:59] ---**
How can you be so calm?
**[17:02] ---**
You almost got killed.
**[17:05] ---**
Idiot! I let the enemy
get in close on purpose,
**[17:07] ---**
so I could check him out.
**[17:10] ---**
Oh, is that right?
**[17:11] ---**
Learn how to read
the situation, Mitsuki.
**[17:15] ---**
So…
**[17:16] ---**
What's the enemy after?
**[17:21] ---**
Unless you tell us,
we can't strategize properly.
**[17:27] ---**
We'll accept the mission, so…
**[17:30] ---**
please tell us everything.
**[17:36] ---**
The deed to the bridge.
**[17:38] ---**
That's what they're after.
**[17:41] ---**
Unless I turn it over to them,
they'll continue to attack the village.
**[17:46] ---**
Is that thing that important?
**[17:48] ---**
Of course, it is!
**[17:50] ---**
That's the bridge
that my father built!
**[17:52] ---**
I can't turn it over to them!
**[17:54] ---**
Boruto!
**[17:56] ---**
And who else is aware of this?
**[18:01] ---**
Lady Kiri… You're the only one, right?
**[18:10] ---**
Shinobi from the Hidden Leaf, huh?
**[18:13] ---**
The girl acted on her own
without even consulting us…
**[18:16] ---**
I toyed with them a little as
a way of welcoming them, but…
**[18:20] ---**
You should've killed them quickly.
**[18:23] ---**
Silence!
**[18:24] ---**
We may be in an age of peace,
but the Hidden Leaf Village
**[18:28] ---**
still has many exceptional shinobi
who survived the Great War.
**[18:33] ---**
I have no desire to cross swords
with them…
**[18:36] ---**
So, what do we do?
**[18:39] ---**
In any case, we just have
to get the deed, right?
**[18:43] ---**
I'm going to have you
work a little.
**[18:46] ---**
Fine.
**[19:02] ---**
Fire!
**[19:06] ---**
It's all turning out
just as we expected.
**[19:09] ---**
Yes…
**[19:10] ---**
That attack earlier was
to analyze our strength, right?
**[19:14] ---**
Probably.
**[19:16] ---**
and the fact that they didn't waste any
time in returning means…
**[19:18] ---**
Damn it! Are they putting us down?
**[19:23] ---**
Help!
**[19:24] ---**
Th-That guy!
**[19:26] ---**
Wait, Boruto!
**[19:28] ---**
I can do this myself!
**[19:33] ---**
Run, mister!
**[19:34] ---**
Don't tell me…
you're from the Pale Blue Valley?
**[19:41] ---**
Huh? You're!
**[19:46] ---**
You guys?
**[19:48] ---**
Why?!
**[19:49] ---**
Boruto, are you okay?
**[19:51] ---**
Didn't Sensei tell you not
to go off on your own?!
**[19:54] ---**
Shut up!
**[19:56] ---**
Anyway, what's going on?
**[20:00] ---**
It's genjutsu…
**[20:01] ---**
Everyone's being controlled
by a genjutsu.
**[20:04] ---**
Which means it's not
a good idea to kill them?
**[20:06] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:08] ---**
What do we do?
**[20:09] ---**
First, we have to find the jutsu user…
**[20:11] ---**
He should be among them, but…
**[20:18] ---**
What are you guys doing?
**[20:21] ---**
Stay away!
**[20:22] ---**
Hey, what's wrong?!
**[20:24] ---**
Iori!
**[20:25] ---**
Is that guy also under a genjutsu?!
**[20:29] ---**
Damn it!
**[20:36] ---**
It's no use!
I can't find him!
**[20:39] ---**
Don't panic!
**[20:41] ---**
Think.
**[20:42] ---**
Isn't there a way to find
the jutsu user
**[20:44] ---**
without harming the other villagers?
**[20:48] ---**
It will get a little rough, but…
**[20:50] ---**
What if I suppress the force
of my Wind Style,
**[20:53] ---**
and use it over a wide area?
**[20:55] ---**
I see…
**[20:56] ---**
The one who can withstand
that Wind Style is…
**[20:58] ---**
a shinobi.
**[21:00] ---**
All right, Mitsuki.
Do it!
**[21:03] ---**
Wind Style: Breakthrough.
**[21:15] ---**
Where's the shinobi?
**[21:17] ---**
Everyone's down.
**[21:20] ---**
He got away.
**[21:22] ---**
Boruto!
**[21:26] ---**
The village head is missing!
**[21:28] ---**
He's right!
**[21:32] ---**
Don't tell me it was that guy!
**[21:34] ---**
That means he was with the enemy.
**[21:38] ---**
Damn it!
**[21:39] ---**
Wait!
**[21:41] ---**
Didn't I tell you not to act
on your own?!
**[21:50] ---**
Damn it, so uncool.
**[23:26] ---**
They're very violent.
**[23:27] ---**
I can't fight them and protect you
at the same time.
**[23:30] ---**
Just because
I'm a kid doesn't mean—!
**[23:31] ---**
Calm down!
**[23:32] ---**
We're resuming the mission.
**[23:34] ---**
I'll take care of those guys,
**[23:36] ---**
and you three will rescue
the village head
**[23:38] ---**
and complete your first mission
successfully!
**[23:40] ---**
Got it…
**[23:43] ---**

Naruto Next Generations:

"Strength in Unity"
**[23:47] ---**

what teamwork is!
