    This time, I'm not letting you
    get away!
[00:22] ---
    Found him!
[00:23] ---
    Direction: 11 o'clock,
    30 meters ahead!
[00:27] ---
    Okay, I'm gonna settle this
    right now!
[00:38] ---
    Gotcha!
[00:43] ---
    He's headed your way, Mitsuki!
[00:45] ---
    Leave it to me.
[01:00] ---
    There, there… Don't struggle.
[01:02] ---
    Damn it!
[01:03] ---
    How did we get stuck with
    a mission to find a lost cat?
[02:40] ---
    A Ninja's Job
    
    
    
[02:41] ---
    A Ninja's Job
    
    
    Thank you so much!
[02:43] ---
    A Ninja's Job
    
    
    My kitty…
[02:44] ---
    runs away from home sometimes.
[02:47] ---
    No problem,
[02:48] ---
    I'm glad we found your kitty
    safe and sound!
[02:53] ---
    For all the fuss it caused,
    it was a boring mission.
[02:58] ---
    Listen…
[02:59] ---
    Dealing with…that kind of trouble
    is part of our jobs as genin.
[03:04] ---
    I know, but…
    all we've been doing lately
[03:07] ---
    is dealing with problems
    in the neighborhood.
[03:09] ---
    Like removing a hornet's nest…
[03:11] ---
    Mediating a fight between drunks…
[03:14] ---
    Are those worthy missions for us?
[03:17] ---
    You feel that way too,
    don't you, Mitsuki?
[03:19] ---
    What? I enjoy them.
[03:22] ---
    Besides, I get to do them with you.
[03:25] ---
    That's right,
    I forgot you're like that.
[03:28] ---
    All right!
[03:30] ---
    Our next mission's gonna be
    something more challenging!
[03:33] ---
    Let's go, Mitsuki!
[03:35] ---
    – Huh?
    – Okay.
[03:36] ---
    Hey, wait up!
[03:36] ---
    Oh, come on!
[03:39] ---
    I'm saying…
[03:41] ---
    Give us…
[03:43] ---
    a flashier mission, ya know!
[03:47] ---
    The request that
    you're making is…
[03:50] ---
    Man, it's no use talking
    to you, Miss Suika.
[03:54] ---
    Let me go talk to
    my stupid old man.
[03:57] ---
    Oh, Mr. Konohamaru!
[03:59] ---
    Didn't I tell you that
    Lord Seventh is busy,
[04:01] ---
    so you're to get your mission orders
    from the assignment desk?
[04:06] ---
    But at this rate,
[04:08] ---
    we'll never prove ourselves
    and it's a waste of our talents.
[04:12] ---
    I don't think you really understand
[04:14] ---
    what a ninja's job is
    in this day and age.
[04:17] ---
    Huh?
[04:18] ---
    In the past, they could
    happen at any time.
[04:20] ---
    But do you think showy battles
    are commonplace
[04:22] ---
    in an age of peace?
[04:25] ---
    Uh… Well that's…
[04:26] ---
    You might have gotten
    the wrong impression
[04:28] ---
    since your first mission
    involved enemy ninja…
[04:31] ---
    But missions like that
    are actually very rare.
[04:33] ---
    What? Come on!
[04:35] ---
    That's like saying we only
    do odd jobs like handymen!
[04:38] ---
    Don't talk like that.
[04:40] ---
    Every job we do is important.
[04:42] ---
    We serve the village and
    support its welfare.
[04:44] ---
    And besides, it's not only you guys.
[04:47] ---
    All your classmates are
    working diligently
[04:50] ---
    on similar low-key missions.
[04:52] ---
    So, it's not just us?
[04:54] ---
    Also, the time you spend
    as a genin,
[04:58] ---
    is when you learn the realities
    of the village and the world
[05:00] ---
    through such low-key jobs.
[05:04] ---
    I bet you were fed that line
    by my dad, weren't you?
[05:09] ---
    That being the case…
[05:10] ---
    please take care of your missions!
[05:14] ---
    I can't take this!
[05:16] ---
    Maybe I shouldn't have
    become a ninja.
[05:19] ---
    He's such a child.
    Such an idiot.
[05:24] ---
    We bring you breaking news.
[05:26] ---
    The incident involving
    a gang of armed robbers
[05:28] ---
    that attacked the Hidden Leaf
    Central Department Store
[05:31] ---
    LEAF NEWS LIVE!
    ARMED ROBBERS ARRESTED
    
    
    
    
    has been resolved swiftly.
    
    
[05:33] ---
    Rock Lee quickly stopped them
    in their tracks,
[05:36] ---
    along with Kiba Inuzuka
    of the Police Force.
[05:40] ---
    Actually, I could've easily
    handled this alone.
[05:44] ---
    I guess I just won over
    more female fans, eh.
[05:46] ---
    Metal, are you watching?
[05:48] ---
    This is the result of daily training!
[05:51] ---
    LEAF NEWS LIVE!
    ARMED ROBBERS ARRESTED
    
    
    
    Trained muscles will
    never let you down!
    
    
[05:53] ---
    LEAF NEWS LIVE!
    ARMED ROBBERS ARRESTED
    
    
    
    
    Th-Thank you very much.
    
    
[05:55] ---
    That concludes our live report
    from the scene.
[05:57] ---
    It seems like missions
    that are really dangerous
[05:59] ---
    are settled by those guys right away.
[06:01] ---
    – Then we're only here to make
    – However, much remains unknown*
[06:03] ---
    – those jonin look good.
    – about the gang's background,
[06:05] ---
    and there is still a possibility*
[06:06] ---
    LEAF NEWS LIVE!
    ARMED ROBBERS ARRESTED
    
    
    
    
    of more organized crime.
    
    
[06:08] ---
    LEAF NEWS LIVE!
    ARMED ROBBERS ARRESTED
    
    
    
    – This is boring.
    –The investigation continues.
    
    
[06:10] ---
    There's no incentive to work hard
[06:12] ---
    unless people know about
    our accomplishments.
[06:15] ---
    Let's hurry home and play.
[06:16] ---
    I can't wait!
[06:18] ---
    That's right!
    I can't waste time!
[06:20] ---
    TOYS
    
    
[06:21] ---
    TOYS
    
    Thank you very much!
[06:26] ---
    I almost forgot that
    today's the release date.
[06:30] ---
    What kind of game is it?
[06:32] ---
    Seems you were really
    looking forward to it.
[06:35] ---
    "Super Ninja Hero Battle 2"!
[06:37] ---
    You create your own ninja avatar
[06:39] ---
    and make them stronger,
    and win battles.
[06:41] ---
    It's a super fun game!
[06:43] ---
    It's the sequel I've been waiting for!
[06:46] ---
    Oh…
[06:47] ---
    The first one was amazing.
[06:50] ---
    I stayed up all night
    playing it
[06:52] ---
    and Mom got really mad at me.
[06:55] ---
    Want to play it?
[06:57] ---
    I swear you're gonna get hooked.
[06:59] ---
    If you'll teach me how to play…
[07:01] ---
    There you are!
[07:06] ---
    I've been searching
    all over for you!
[07:07] ---
    Huh? What is it, Sarada?
[07:10] ---
    Konohamaru Sensei's sent out
    an emergency summons!
[07:12] ---
    It's probably just gonna
    be a mission
[07:14] ---
    to look for a lost cat or dog…
[07:17] ---
    That's not what it's for!
[07:18] ---
    We're to apprehend a robber
    who's barricaded himself in a bank!
[07:22] ---
    Bank…robber…
[07:25] ---
    …barricaded himself?!
[07:30] ---
    Don't move!
[07:33] ---
    Didn't you hear…
[07:35] ---
    me?!
[07:38] ---
    A kind of mission that's worthy
    of my attention!
[07:43] ---
    Yes!
[07:45] ---
    This is it!
[07:47] ---
    My chance is finally here!
[07:50] ---
    LEAF BANK
    
[07:54] ---
    That's the crime scene?
[07:56] ---
    It's sure different from
    what I imagined…
[07:58] ---
    Hey!
[08:00] ---
    I've been waiting for you guys.
[08:01] ---
    You're Team 7?
[08:04] ---
    Yeah… Who're you, mister?
[08:06] ---
    I'm Kotaro Fuuma of the Police Force.
[08:09] ---
    I'm in command here.
[08:12] ---
    Thanks for coming!
[08:14] ---
    S-Sure.
[08:16] ---
    Nice to see you again,
    Captain Kotaro.
[08:20] ---
    Oh, Sarada!
[08:22] ---
    I haven't see you for
    a little bit, and my,
[08:24] ---
    look how you've grown!
[08:25] ---
    You know this guy?
[08:28] ---
    Hey! Don't run your mouth!
[08:31] ---
    Mr. Kotaro is a Special Jonin and
[08:33] ---
    he's the captain
    of the Police Force!
[08:35] ---
    It's fine.
    No need to be so formal here.
[08:39] ---
    That's right!
[08:40] ---
    Members of the Uchiha Clan
    have served
[08:42] ---
    in the Police Force
    for generations, right?
[08:44] ---
    Yes. And I'm hoping
    that in time,
[08:48] ---
    Sarada will also join the Force.
[08:50] ---
    Well… I don't know about that.
[08:53] ---
    Never mind that.
    What about the suspect?
[08:56] ---
    Where is this nasty villain holed up?
[08:59] ---
    Well, about that…
[09:01] ---
    U-Um…
[09:06] ---
    Huh? Who's that?
[09:08] ---
    What is it? Have you decided
    to surrender quietly?
[09:12] ---
    N-No way!
[09:14] ---
    BOMB
    
    You think I'm fooling around?!
[09:16] ---
    BOMB
    
    I'll really gonna set off this bomb!
[09:20] ---
    I'm serious!
[09:21] ---
    That's the villain?
[09:23] ---
    I'm serious!
[09:24] ---
    Okay, okay.
[09:26] ---
    It's dangerous, so put it away!
[09:28] ---
    So, what are you demands?
[09:31] ---
    W-Well…
[09:33] ---
    Please wait a moment…
[09:36] ---
    I mean…just wait!
[09:40] ---
    What's up with him?
[09:41] ---
    He's not quite what I pictured.
[09:44] ---
    What a unique bank robber.
[09:46] ---
    Well, there you have it.
[09:49] ---
    Not only that,
[09:50] ---
    the people in the bank
    were evacuated ages ago.
[09:52] ---
    Rather than being
    a hostage situation,
[09:55] ---
    it's kinda more like talking someone
    out of killing himself…?
[09:59] ---
    That's why instead of a jonin,
[10:00] ---
    the mission's being
    passed down to us?
[10:02] ---
    Th-This is totally different!
[10:05] ---
    What happened to the big fight
    to subdue the suspect?
[10:08] ---
    Where's my moment
    where I shine?!
[10:12] ---
    Still, that bomb could be real.
[10:15] ---
    Yes, it's because of that possibility,
[10:17] ---
    that we can't force his hand.
[10:19] ---
    And that's why you were called.
[10:22] ---
    I see.
[10:24] ---
    Want to try to talk him
    out of this? Or…
[10:26] ---
    What will you do?
[10:27] ---
    If you're not game,
    I don't mind doing this without you.
[10:32] ---
    Of course, if that's the case,
[10:34] ---
    I'll be sure to report it to Sensei that
    you weren't any help this time.
[10:39] ---
    Who said I'm out?
[10:44] ---
    I'll come up with something
    to settle this fast
[10:46] ---
    and make the jonin lose face!
[10:48] ---
    I'm gonna settle this.
[10:54] ---
    Why did I end up doing this?
[10:58] ---
    No, there's no turning back now!
[11:01] ---
    And if that's the case,
    I'll go out in a blaze of glory…
[11:04] ---
    Go out in a blaze of glory?
[11:06] ---
    Huh?
[11:09] ---
    Hey, hold on!
[11:11] ---
    I won't do anything, ya know.
[11:13] ---
    Look, as it is, we don't know
    what the hell you want.
[11:16] ---
    I thought we'd just talk,
    face to face.
[11:18] ---
    Huh?
[11:20] ---
    You see…
[11:21] ---
    I'm like the negotiator
    for the guys outside…
[11:24] ---
    You can call me your hostage.
[11:26] ---
    W-What are you up to?
[11:28] ---
    Are you gonna look for
    a chance to arrest me?
[11:31] ---
    No, I won't do anything like that.
[11:33] ---
    If you don't trust me,
    you can tie up my hands or feet.
[11:37] ---
    Here…
[11:44] ---
    He's simply too reckless.
[11:47] ---
    Are you worried?
[11:48] ---
    If anything, I'm worried about
    the suspect's safety…
[11:53] ---
    Um…
[11:55] ---
    Damn it!
[11:56] ---
    I can't tie it right.
[11:59] ---
    Hey, want me to hold
    that detonator for you?
[12:03] ---
    Huh? Oh, thanks!
    That'll be a big help—
[12:05] ---
    What?! Like I'd give it to you!
[12:08] ---
    Th-There.
[12:10] ---
    Hey, you're really bad at this stuff.
[12:12] ---
    Are you serious about
    robbing the bank?
[12:17] ---
    Even the safe is still locked…
[12:22] ---
    Is it because the bank employees
    got away,
[12:25] ---
    and now you're stuck
    because you can't open it?
[12:30] ---
    For real?
[12:33] ---
    You don't look like someone
    who'd commit a crime,
[12:36] ---
    so why'd you do this?
[12:38] ---
    Th-That's…
[12:38] ---
    What's your name?
[12:41] ---
    Haguruma…
[12:42] ---
    Listen, Mr. Haguruma…
[12:44] ---
    Why don't you just turn yourself in?
    Then you'll get off lightly.
[12:47] ---
    It's stupid to ruin your whole life
    because of this.
[12:52] ---
    Ruin my life, huh?
[12:54] ---
    It's already ruined.
[12:55] ---
    Huh?
[12:56] ---
    I was…fired from my job
    two months ago.
[13:00] ---
    My boss blamed me for something
    I don't even remember doing.
[13:04] ---
    What do you mean?
[13:06] ---
    I was a programmer for
    a game company.
[13:10] ---
    My job was behind the scenes
    and the work was intense,
[13:14] ---
    but it was fulfilling
    and I was good at it.
[13:17] ---
    The problem occurred during
    the last project I was on.
[13:21] ---
    The team leader gave me
    a schedule
[13:23] ---
    that normally would be
    impossible to meet.
[13:25] ---
    But I was ordered to complete it,
    no matter what.
[13:29] ---
    And? Did you finish the game?
[13:32] ---
    Yeah, I managed somehow.
[13:34] ---
    But as a result of the workload,
[13:36] ---
    several of my coworkers
    collapsed from exhaustion.
[13:39] ---
    We just couldn't take
    the team leader's abuse anymore,
[13:42] ---
    and were going to file an appeal.
[13:44] ---
    But…
[13:46] ---
    the team leader got wind of it.
[13:48] ---
    He accused me of selling
    company secrets to a rival company
[13:50] ---
    and submitted proof
    that he made up…
[13:53] ---
    TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT NOTICE
    HAGURUMA
    
    and got me fired.
[13:56] ---
    Th-That's terrible!
[13:58] ---
    I was made into an example
[13:59] ---
    to make sure no one else
    opposed him.
[14:02] ---
    To make everyone stop complaining
    and keep working.
[14:04] ---
    How can something like
    that be allowed?!
[14:07] ---
    That's totally ridiculous!
[14:11] ---
    Maybe it's hard for you
    to understand, but…
[14:14] ---
    it happens a lot in the adult world.
[14:17] ---
    Especially in the times we live in.
[14:20] ---
    LEAF BANK
    
[14:21] ---
    So…
[14:22] ---
    that suspect might be
    a disgruntled employee?
[14:26] ---
    Yeah…
[14:27] ---
    After the Great Ninja War,
[14:29] ---
    there was drastic expansion
    in the world.
[14:31] ---
    Overall, things improved,
[14:33] ---
    but the gap between
    the rich and poor grew as well.
[14:38] ---
    After getting fired for something terrible
    like leaking company secrets,
[14:43] ---
    no other company would hire me.
[14:46] ---
    I got sick from the shock of it all
    and went into debt
[14:48] ---
    to pay for my medical treatment
    and living expenses.
[14:51] ---
    And they turned out to
    be unscrupulous loan sharks
[14:53] ---
    and the money I owed ballooned…!
[14:56] ---
    Okay, I understand why
    you got so desperate.
[15:00] ---
    Damn it!
[15:01] ---
    I want to beat up
    that rotten boss of yours!
[15:05] ---
    You're angry for my sake?
    Thank you.
[15:09] ---
    But that's not my only grudge.
[15:11] ---
    What do you mean?
[15:13] ---
    I was happy working behind
    the scenes on a game
[15:16] ---
    as long as everyone
    enjoyed playing it.
[15:18] ---
    That's what sustained me when
    I was doing the grueling work.
[15:22] ---
    But…
[15:23] ---
    No one knew how hard I worked,
[15:25] ---
    or that I ended up like this.
[15:28] ---
    When I realized this,
    nothing mattered anymore, you know?
[15:31] ---
    Oh…
[15:33] ---
    There's no incentive to work hard
[15:35] ---
    unless people know
    about our accomplishments.
[15:42] ---
    And so, I pretended that
    I was a bank robber…
[15:45] ---
    But I'm done now.
[15:47] ---
    What do you mean?
[15:50] ---
    I feel better after telling you
[15:53] ---
    all the things I couldn't get off
    my chest until now.
[15:55] ---
    It was the first time.
[15:57] ---
    Mr. Haguruma?
[16:00] ---
    You took a moment
    to listen to this fool,
[16:02] ---
    so I don't want
    to drag you into this.
[16:06] ---
    Hey, you're not—!
[16:11] ---
    I activated the bomb.
[16:13] ---
    In five minutes,
    this place will be blown to bits.
[16:16] ---
    But I can't let you get hurt.
[16:20] ---
    So, I'm going to close
    this door behind me.
[16:23] ---
    I'll blow myself up with
    a loud bang
[16:25] ---
    as a final protest to
    my damned boss.
[16:27] ---
    H-Hey?!
[16:28] ---
    You're okay with that?!
[16:31] ---
    It's perfect…today's the release date
    of that game.
[16:34] ---
    This might make the news…
[16:35] ---
    Huh?
[16:37] ---
    The last game I worked on.
[16:40] ---
    You probably don't know it,
    but it's Super Ninja—
[16:42] ---
    Super Ninja Hero Battle 2?!
[16:44] ---
    I know it! Look…
    In my jacket pocket!
[16:51] ---
    This is…
[16:53] ---
    SUPER NINJA HERO BATTLE
    
    
    
    – my game!
    – Yeah!
[16:55] ---
    You're…a fan of my game?
[16:59] ---
    I played the first one
    for hours on end,
[17:01] ---
    and cleared every mission.
[17:03] ---
    And I plan to play
    the second one just as much!
[17:06] ---
    It's the first time…
[17:08] ---
    anyone's said something
    like that to my face!
[17:10] ---
    I'll tell you as many times
    as you want!
[17:14] ---
    Hey, you have to hear
[17:15] ---
    what I think about Part 2
    after I play it!
[17:17] ---
    So, don't do anything stupid!
[17:24] ---
    Yeah… You're right.
[17:27] ---
    I wouldn't want to
    miss hearing about it.
[17:30] ---
    Then Mr. Haguruma—!
[17:32] ---
    Yeah, I'm not gonna kill myself.
[17:37] ---
    That's more like it!
[17:40] ---
    Now, all of a sudden…
[17:43] ---
    I'm scared of this thing.
[17:45] ---
    Yeah, so hurry and turn it off!
[17:48] ---
    Yeah, I just have to quickly
    press this twice…
[17:52] ---
    Huh?
[17:53] ---
    What are you doing?
[17:55] ---
    Weird… is there connection failure?
[17:58] ---
    Is there a bug in the program?!
[18:00] ---
    A-At this rate…
[18:02] ---
    Oh no! Can't you take it off?!
[18:06] ---
    I made it so it's hard to take off.
[18:08] ---
    I wasn't expecting to take it off.
[18:11] ---
    I know! Mr. Haguruma!
[18:14] ---
    Untie my hands!
[18:20] ---
    All right!
[18:24] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[18:28] ---
    That thing runs on electricity, right?
[18:31] ---
    Okay.
[18:32] ---
    You're gonna feel a little shock.
[18:34] ---
    Sorry in advance!
[18:42] ---
    – Lightning Style!
    – Lightning Style!
[18:49] ---
    Boruto isn't coming out.
[18:51] ---
    Maybe he's having a hard time
    convincing the suspect.
[18:54] ---
    He said he was going to
    take the detonator
[18:56] ---
    the moment he had a chance…
[18:57] ---
    Maybe this plan was too much
    for him alone!
[19:01] ---
    What was that just now?!
[19:02] ---
    That was…Lightning Style?
[19:06] ---
    Oh!
[19:10] ---
    Boruto?!
[19:12] ---
    Mission accomplished, ya know!
[19:17] ---
    Well done!
[19:19] ---
    Thanks to you, no one was hurt!
[19:24] ---
    Look, Mr. Haguruma is…
[19:27] ---
    After questioning the suspect,
[19:29] ---
    we believe he was under
    extreme mental duress
[19:30] ---
    and unable to make
    sound decisions.
[19:32] ---
    Furthermore…
    after inspecting the explosive…
[19:35] ---
    It was just a worthless appliance
[19:38] ---
    that wouldn't have
    caused any fatalities.
[19:40] ---
    Huh?! What the hell—?!
[19:42] ---
    After causing all that panic!
[19:45] ---
    Considering the circumstances,
[19:46] ---
    and his sincere regret
    at this moment…
[19:48] ---
    His punishment probably
    won't be too severe.
[19:53] ---
    Good job, Boruto!
[19:56] ---
    Yeah!
[19:57] ---
    But…
[19:59] ---
    What's he going to do from now?
[20:03] ---
    As for that…
[20:08] ---
    Yes, hello?
[20:10] ---
    Hey, Boruto! How did the mission go?
[20:14] ---
    Huh?
[20:15] ---
    Sure, if there's anything I can do…
[20:20] ---
    If it's that, I think I can help.
[20:23] ---
    The Kaminarimon Company is
    always looking for exceptional people!
[20:30] ---
    Okay, we've made our report.
[20:32] ---
    I'm gonna go home to relax
    and play my game!
[20:35] ---
    That sounds like fun.
[20:37] ---
    I have to be ready to go tomorrow,
[20:38] ---
    no matter what the request,
    ya know?
[20:41] ---
    Huh? What caused
    that change of heart?
[20:46] ---
    Well… how do I put it…?
[20:51] ---
    Even if there's no glory in a job,
    it still has value.
[20:55] ---
    Did I actually hear you say that?
[20:58] ---
    Maybe it's gonna storm tomorrow.
[20:59] ---
    – What did you say?!
    – What?
[21:03] ---
    Someone instigated the suspect
    to barricade himself in the bank?
[21:06] ---
    Is that what you're saying?
[21:08] ---
    Yes.
[21:09] ---
    It became clear during
    questioning earlier.
[21:12] ---
    I wondered why
    someone so timid
[21:14] ---
    would try something so bold.
[21:17] ---
    At first, my intent was to die
    without telling anyone.
[21:21] ---
    But moments before I jumped
    in front of a passing train,
[21:23] ---
    a man came up to me.
[21:26] ---
    And that person gave him the idea
    of barricading himself?
[21:30] ---
    Yes.
[21:31] ---
    And they told him
    where security was lax,
[21:33] ---
    and even at what time…
[21:34] ---
    Just who would do such a thing?
[21:37] ---
    Excuse me!
[21:38] ---
    What's up?
[21:41] ---
    What?!
[23:27] ---
    The case that Boruto
    and his team solved
[23:29] ---
    was just a diversion to distract us.
[23:32] ---
    Damn it!
[23:33] ---
    Seems like it's the work of these guys
    who call themselves noble thieves.
[23:36] ---
    The Byakuya Gang?
[23:37] ---
    They've been active in several
    other villages here and there.
[23:39] ---
    They're an anonymous group.
[23:42] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:45] ---
    "The Byakuya Gang Surfaces!"
    
    
[23:47] ---
    Damn you, Byakuya Gang!
    I'm gonna capture you!
    
    
[23:50] ---
    THE BYAKUYA GANG SURFACES!
