**[00:06] ---**
Do your best, Big Brother!
**[00:09] ---**
Stay calm while you take the test.
**[00:11] ---**
If you haven't forgotten the things
you've learned until today,
**[00:14] ---**
you'll definitely pass!
**[00:16] ---**
Yeah, I know!
**[00:25] ---**
*Oh well, just in case…*
**[00:32] ---**
Okay, I'll be going, ya know!
**[00:34] ---**
Bye!
**[02:08] ---**
*Rivals, Gather!*
**[02:10] ---**
Oh, here they come!
**[02:12] ---**
Hey!
**[02:16] ---**
You look like you're ready to go.
**[02:19] ---**
What happened?
**[02:21] ---**
Until recently,
you were sounding like Shikadai,
**[02:23] ---**
saying how it was gonna be drag…
**[02:25] ---**
Right?
**[02:26] ---**
I don't know what caused
the change in heart.
**[02:29] ---**
I told you!
**[02:31] ---**
I'll show everyone
the fruits of my training.
**[02:34] ---**
Looks like everyone else
is here too.
**[02:36] ---**
Hey!
**[02:37] ---**
Let's all do our best!
**[02:39] ---**
I'm so nervous!
**[02:47] ---**
None of them seem like
they're too eager.
**[02:49] ---**
You can't really tell
just by looking at them.
**[02:52] ---**
Oh, all three of them
have the same face!
**[02:55] ---**
They're from the Hidden Mist.
**[02:58] ---**
Their names are…
**[02:59] ---**
Takanami, Sazanami
and Makinami Senka…
**[03:03] ---**
Triplets?
**[03:05] ---**
I wonder what kind of
Ninja Arts they use?
**[03:08] ---**
Which team looks
strong to you, Iwabe?
**[03:11] ---**
Well…
**[03:24] ---**
They look like they've got
some hidden strengths.
**[03:29] ---**
They could end up as our rivals.
**[03:32] ---**
The Genbu Shinobi Trio
representing the Hidden Stone!
**[03:36] ---**
Their background and the Ninja Arts
they use are a total mystery…
**[03:39] ---**
They look super strong!
Do you even think we can win?
**[03:44] ---**
Calm down!
**[03:46] ---**
Compared to the guys we've had to
fight up to now, they're nothing.
**[03:53] ---**
Damn it, he always
gets so carried away!
**[03:57] ---**
*So that's Boruto Uzumaki.*
**[03:59] ---**
*The son of The Seventh Hokage,*
*Naruto Uzumaki*
**[04:02] ---**
*who defeated Father in the past…*
**[04:05] ---**
What's going on, Shinki?
**[04:08] ---**
It's nothing.
**[04:09] ---**
Let's go.
**[04:10] ---**
The opening ceremony
will begin soon.
**[04:16] ---**
Quiet!
**[04:17] ---**
Looks like everyone is here.
**[04:20] ---**
We will now begin
**[04:21] ---**
the first Chunin Exams of
the Five Allied Villages!
**[04:28] ---**
As you all know, this is the first
selection exam in history
**[04:32] ---**
sponsored by all five villages.
**[04:35] ---**
The Hidden Leaf.
**[04:36] ---**
The Hidden Cloud.
**[04:37] ---**
The Hidden Mist.
**[04:39] ---**
The Hidden Stone.
**[04:40] ---**
And the Hidden Sand.
**[04:42] ---**
At this time, you are all getting
the rare opportunity
**[04:45] ---**
to fight against ninja
from other villages.
**[04:48] ---**
This is your chance to use
the jutsu that you're proud of!
**[04:56] ---**
*Good grief…*
**[04:57] ---**
*Are they even motivated*
**[04:59] ---**
*to participate in*
*this important event?*
**[05:02] ---**
Everyone, I ask you
to freely demonstrate
**[05:04] ---**
the fruits of your training!
**[05:06] ---**
– Right!
– All right!
**[05:08] ---**
Exam One will begin promptly
at noon in Exam Venue A.
**[05:14] ---**
Until then, the time is yours.
Use that time to rest or train!
**[05:22] ---**
Dismissed!
**[05:24] ---**
Two Chunin Exam
Cheer burger combos, correct?
**[05:28] ---**
So? What's going on?
**[05:29] ---**
Burgers again? On a day like this?
**[05:34] ---**
They say you can't wage war hungry!
**[05:37] ---**
Well, there's still time
until the first exam.
**[05:40] ---**
This can be our strategy meeting.
**[05:43] ---**
Yeah, but Mitsuki is late…
**[05:46] ---**
I wonder what he's doing?
**[05:50] ---**
*These guys were at*
*the opening ceremony…*
**[05:57] ---**
Hey, you mind switching with us?
**[06:00] ---**
Huh?
**[06:01] ---**
There's only two of you.
We've got three.
**[06:06] ---**
It's only natural
**[06:07] ---**
to seat the larger party
at the booth, right?
**[06:09] ---**
We have three too.
**[06:12] ---**
One of us isn't here yet.
**[06:13] ---**
That's none of our concern.
**[06:15] ---**
It's his fault for being slow.
**[06:18] ---**
There you have it.
So, if you get it, move.
**[06:23] ---**
You can't be ninja
if you're slow like that.
**[06:26] ---**
What?!
**[06:28] ---**
No, Boruto!
**[06:29] ---**
Don't make trouble
before the exams.
**[06:31] ---**
Boruto?
**[06:33] ---**
Oh, I see…
**[06:34] ---**
You're the son of
the Seventh Hokage…
**[06:38] ---**
I was curious to see
how good a ninja he was…
**[06:40] ---**
Who woulda thought
he'd be such a weakling?
**[06:43] ---**
Why you—!
**[06:46] ---**
Huh?
**[06:49] ---**
That's my seat.
**[06:52] ---**
Who the hell are you?!
**[07:03] ---**
Why are you
staring at me like that?!
**[07:08] ---**
Boruto, how are these guys—?
**[07:14] ---**
What's—!!
**[07:15] ---**
My body's…
**[07:16] ---**
What's going on…
**[07:22] ---**
That's enough.
**[07:23] ---**
*Who are these guys?*
**[07:25] ---**
*What's with that cape?*
**[07:28] ---**
What's the point of fighting here?
**[07:35] ---**
Sorry, our third member's here now.
**[07:38] ---**
Could you please
find a seat elsewhere?
**[07:40] ---**
Whatever.
**[07:43] ---**
We'll see you at the Exams.
**[07:50] ---**
Um… Thank you!
You were a big help.
**[07:53] ---**
No worries.
**[07:55] ---**
Shinki's like that.
**[07:58] ---**
Let's go.
**[07:58] ---**
Right!
**[08:03] ---**
Shinki, huh?
**[08:05] ---**
Who is he anyway?
**[08:06] ---**
Oh, um…
Ah, it's right here.
**[08:10] ---**
Shinki…representing
the Hidden Sand Village.
**[08:14] ---**
Oh…
**[08:15] ---**
Seems he's the adopted son
of the Fifth Kazekage.
**[08:19] ---**
The son of one of the Five Kage.
**[08:21] ---**
He's just like you, Boruto.
**[08:24] ---**
Kazekage?
**[08:26] ---**
It's him, huh—?
**[08:32] ---**
Boruto…
**[08:35] ---**
Oh…
**[08:36] ---**
Lord Mizukaze!
**[08:38] ---**
It's been a long time.
**[08:39] ---**
Thanks again for last time!
**[08:42] ---**
I wanted to bring Kagura along,
**[08:44] ---**
but I left him in charge of
the village in my absence.
**[08:48] ---**
I see.
**[08:50] ---**
However, I have a message from him.
**[08:53] ---**
He's looking forward to seeing
you again, as a fellow chunin.
**[08:57] ---**
He wanted me to tell you that.
**[08:59] ---**
Kagura said that?
**[09:01] ---**
He's training hard every day
to be my successor.
**[09:09] ---**
I see…
**[09:10] ---**
So, he's doing his best too.
**[09:13] ---**
Do your best too!
**[09:15] ---**
The guys from my village
are all pretty strong too.
**[09:20] ---**
The Senka Triplets
from the Hidden Mist…
**[09:23] ---**
I guess beating all of them
isn't going to be that simple…
**[09:32] ---**
Fine by me.
**[09:33] ---**
Whoever I go up against,
I'm not gonna lose!
**[09:41] ---**
Hey, there Tsuchikage!
**[09:43] ---**
You're awfully eager
to watch from the first exam.
**[09:48] ---**
Same to you guys.
**[09:50] ---**
Well, it is history's first
joint exam of the five villages.
**[09:54] ---**
I wonder how many genin
will be worth watching this time.
**[09:59] ---**
It's nice that we're
at peace these days,
**[10:02] ---**
but as a result, the number
of chunin has decreased.
**[10:06] ---**
We need new blood from these exams.
**[10:10] ---**
By the way, is Gaara,
the Kazekage not coming?
**[10:14] ---**
The exam has already begun.
**[10:16] ---**
He should be on his way now.
**[10:18] ---**
Oh, we're all here now.
**[10:21] ---**
It's about to start.
**[10:26] ---**
Okay, I see everyone's here?
**[10:29] ---**
I will now announce the outline
of the first round.
**[10:34] ---**
The exam for Round One is…
**[10:45] ---**
a true or false quiz.
**[10:47] ---**
TRUE OR FALSE QUIZ
**[10:52] ---**
Huh…?
**[10:53] ---**
– Huh?!
– Huh?!
**[10:57] ---**
What is this?
**[10:59] ---**
A quiz?
**[11:01] ---**
The question will be given
in Exam Venue B
**[11:04] ---**
which is 20 km from here.
**[11:07] ---**
Any genin who does not
arrive to the venue
**[11:10] ---**
within one hour of this stopwatch
will be disqualified.
**[11:13] ---**
Furthermore, along the way,
various traps have been laid.
**[11:18] ---**
If you get caught up
and can go no further means…
**[11:20] ---**
– you're disqualified as well.
– Boruto! Look!
**[11:23] ---**
Only participants who arrive to
Venue B within the time allotted
**[11:26] ---**
– will be allowed to take
– That stopwatch
**[11:27] ---**
– the true or false quiz…
– is moving!
**[11:28] ---**
– …so please pay attention
– Let's run!
**[11:29] ---**
to the time.
**[11:31] ---**
Any team who is late,
even by a second, will be—
**[11:41] ---**
Oh… I wasn't done explaining…
**[11:45] ---**
Your explanation itself is a trap.
**[11:48] ---**
If they listened until the end,
they wouldn't have made it in time.
**[11:52] ---**
At least they can
figure out that much.
**[11:55] ---**
This year's participants
are an elite group.
**[11:58] ---**
I would hope so.
**[12:02] ---**
Oh boy…
**[12:03] ---**
It's our first joint exams ever…
**[12:06] ---**
But he has no intention of
making this easy for any of them.
**[12:15] ---**
This is an exam,
and it's also a serious battle.
**[12:18] ---**
I won't be going easy on you, okay?
**[12:24] ---**
Traps have been laid!
**[12:26] ---**
Be careful as you proceed!
**[12:37] ---**
Seems the time's come
to show them what we're made of.
**[12:40] ---**
The ultimate technique of we,
the Genbu Trio!
**[12:44] ---**
Ninja Art, Genbu Winter Wind
Emperor Formation!
**[12:47] ---**
Number 108 – Release!
**[12:50] ---**
Respond to my name and manifest!
**[12:52] ---**
Jet black—!
**[12:57] ---**
EXPLODE
**[13:10] ---**
We couldn't see
their ultimate technique…
**[13:13] ---**
What was he saying at the end?
**[13:17] ---**
L-Let's go!
**[13:19] ---**
Nothing much we can say to losers…
**[13:23] ---**
So uncool.
**[13:25] ---**
Those three!
**[13:26] ---**
When they get back home,
**[13:27] ---**
they're gonna start training again
from the very beginning.
**[13:29] ---**
I'll see to it, personally.
**[13:38] ---**
These traps
aren't worth using this…
**[13:42] ---**
Oh… Not bad at all.
**[13:44] ---**
Then how about this?
**[13:54] ---**
Try not to use your jutsu.
**[13:56] ---**
No need to show
the enemy our skills.
**[14:00] ---**
– Got it.
– Right!
**[14:21] ---**
Easy!
**[14:23] ---**
*And…I still have more*
*tricks up my sleeve…*
**[14:31] ---**
Let's go, Sazanami, Makinami.
**[14:33] ---**
Yes, Elder Brother.
**[14:35] ---**
I'm ready anytime.
**[14:59] ---**
We took a lot of time.
**[15:01] ---**
We made it with
five minutes to spare.
**[15:07] ---**
Damn it!
**[15:08] ---**
Look at them with
their unconcerned expressions!
**[15:12] ---**
There's more left than I thought.
**[15:14] ---**
Still, it's what we speculated.
**[15:17] ---**
Well, the real exam starts now.
**[15:26] ---**
Each team of three
**[15:27] ---**
will stand on the side they believe
is the correct answer.
**[15:33] ---**
So, it really is
a true or false quiz!
**[15:35] ---**
They sure prepared
some elaborate steps to this…
**[15:38] ---**
Those who answer incorrectly,
namely…
**[15:42] ---**
those who turn black, will fail.
**[15:44] ---**
Turn black?
**[15:46] ---**
All right, here's the question.
**[15:48] ---**
In the 5th Volume of the Shinobi
Military Strategy Handbook,
**[15:51] ---**
the following passwords appear:
**[15:52] ---**
Moon is day. Mountain is river.
Flower is nectar.
**[15:56] ---**
True or false?
**[15:58] ---**
How am I supposed to know that?!
**[16:00] ---**
Umm…
What was it?!
**[16:02] ---**
I don't remember three passwords…
**[16:09] ---**
Sarada, are you familiar
with that book?
**[16:11] ---**
I've read it.
**[16:13] ---**
But the library only had up to
**[16:14] ---**
the 4th Volume of
the Military Strategy Handbook.
**[16:18] ---**
Who knew there was a fifth scroll…!
**[16:20] ---**
What about you, Mitsuki?
**[16:25] ---**
I guess we'll just have to
go by instinct.
**[16:29] ---**
*I guess this will be of no use*
*in a quiz.*
**[16:38] ---**
Damn it! We have to hurry up
and decide or we'll fail!
**[16:41] ---**
Boruto, which one do you think
my dad would choose?
**[16:45] ---**
Huh? What's up with that question?
**[16:47] ---**
Just answer.
**[16:51] ---**
False, I think.
**[16:53] ---**
Mr. Sasuke doesn't seem to be
the straightforward type.
**[16:56] ---**
Right? I think so too.
**[17:02] ---**
I'm choosing a different path than
Dad and I'll become the Hokage.
**[17:06] ---**
Then, we'll choose true?
**[17:08] ---**
Yes.
**[17:09] ---**
Will you go along with me, guys?
**[17:12] ---**
This is fun!
Thinking will get us nowhere.
**[17:17] ---**
Let's just take a gamble, Sarada!
**[17:30] ---**
Time's up.
**[17:32] ---**
The correct answer is…
**[17:43] ---**
It's ink! A pool of ink!
**[17:45] ---**
*Did we fail?*
**[17:49] ---**
*Damn it…here?!*
**[17:52] ---**
*Does it all end here?!*
**[18:00] ---**
*They failed over there too?!*
*What's the right answer?*
**[18:04] ---**
*Those who turn black, will fail.*
**[18:07] ---**
Mitsuki!
**[18:11] ---**
Boruto!
**[18:15] ---**
So that's it!
**[18:23] ---**
We barely made it.
**[18:34] ---**
I see…
**[18:36] ---**
It didn't matter
if we chose true or false.
**[18:39] ---**
That quiz was a sham
from the start.
**[18:42] ---**
There was never really
a fifth volume at all.
**[18:45] ---**
"Those who turn black, will fail…"
**[18:48] ---**
That's what he said.
**[18:50] ---**
You're okay
if you didn't turn black.
**[18:53] ---**
You pass if you didn't fall into
the pool of ink.
**[18:56] ---**
So that's what he meant.
**[18:58] ---**
Man… It's exactly the kinda
crappy test my dad would think up.
**[19:04] ---**
Exactly!
**[19:06] ---**
Some looked at
the approaching pool of ink
**[19:08] ---**
and realized that they made
the wrong choice…
**[19:12] ---**
and just chose to let
the ink stain them.
**[19:15] ---**
If you're that gutless,
you don't deserve to become chunin.
**[19:20] ---**
The real purpose of the first test…
**[19:24] ---**
…was to see what you decided to do
**[19:25] ---**
the instant you realize you were
backed into a difficult situation.
**[19:27] ---**
Do you "give up" or did you
"refuse to give up"?
**[19:30] ---**
Those who did not fall into the ink
made the right choice.
**[19:34] ---**
The first round of the Chunin Exams
has now ended!
**[19:43] ---**
Round Two is in three days.
**[19:44] ---**
Let's do our best!
**[19:46] ---**
Of course!
**[19:47] ---**
We're going to pass the next one,
no matter what!
**[19:49] ---**
Right, Boruto?
**[19:50] ---**
Huh? Y-Yeah…
**[19:52] ---**
For sure!
**[19:54] ---**
Hah, you sure can talk big.
**[19:58] ---**
You were helpless
without the other two.
**[20:01] ---**
What did you say?
**[20:05] ---**
Shinki? What's the matter?
**[20:07] ---**
No, it's nothing.
**[20:10] ---**
Yes, it seems he didn't have
an opportunity to use it this time.
**[20:14] ---**
Yes, if he's going to use it,
it should be on a bigger stage…
**[20:27] ---**
Looks like Boruto's team
made it through round one.
**[20:30] ---**
I see.
**[20:32] ---**
Maybe you should say
a few words to him…
**[20:39] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:48] ---**
Big Brother, dinner's ready!
**[20:52] ---**
He's exhausted.
Let's let him sleep.
**[20:55] ---**
Uh-huh.
**[21:09] ---**
*Congratulations on passing*
*the First Round!*
**[21:12] ---**
*Do your best on the Second Round!*
*— From Dad.*
**[21:16] ---**
An email?
**[21:18] ---**
He didn't even send a Shadow Clone?
Stupid old man.
**[21:21] ---**
DELETE
**[21:29] ---**
SAVE
**[21:44] ---**
You just watch…
**[21:46] ---**
I'll show you in the second round,
for sure.
**[21:49] ---**
And I'll make you acknowledge me,
no matter what!
**[23:25] ---**
If we're going to show Lord Hokage
how strong we are,
**[23:28] ---**
we just have to make it through
the Second Round!
**[23:32] ---**
I have to pass the Chunin Exams
**[23:33] ---**
and proceed on the path
to becoming the Hokage!
**[23:36] ---**
We're counting on you,
because I don't want to lose.
**[23:40] ---**
You don't have to remind me.
**[23:43] ---**
Next time on Boruto
Naruto Next Generations:
**[23:46] ---**
"The Reason I Can't Lose"
**[23:48] ---**
I can't lose here!
**[23:51] ---**
THE REASON I CAN'T LOSE
