    Mitsuki… Mitsuki…
[00:07] ---
    Mitsuki! Mitsuki!
[00:08] ---
    Mitsuki!
[00:10] ---
    Mitsuki!
[00:12] ---
    You're still a child right now,
    so you may not understand yet…
[00:15] ---
    But I know you'll eventually see it!
[00:17] ---
    You need to stop Orochimaru!
[00:19] ---
    Mitsuki, he's trying to deceive you
    because you're still a child!
[00:24] ---
    Come to me.
[00:27] ---
    Hey! Mitsuki!
[00:28] ---
    Mitsuki…
[00:30] ---
    Mitsuki!
[00:31] ---
    Now…
[00:36] ---
    Since I'm just a kid…
[00:39] ---
    …all that doesn't really matter to me.
[00:43] ---
    As for anything to do with me,
    I'll decide for myself!
[00:57] ---
    So even I…can dream…
[02:31] ---
    The Hardest Rock in the World
    
    
    
    
[02:32] ---
    The Hardest Rock in the World
    
    
    Huh?! You've never had
    a dream before this?
[02:35] ---
    No.
[02:36] ---
    You really are strange,
    you know that?
[02:40] ---
    So… What am I supposed
    to choose?
[02:43] ---
    It doesn't mean anything
    unless you make the choice.
[02:46] ---
    For once, you said you wanted
    to eat something.
[02:48] ---
    That's why we're keeping
    you company.
[02:49] ---
    Hey, can you hurry up
    and decide?
[02:52] ---
    I've been waiting, you know?
[02:56] ---
    So you're having
    the same thing I am?
[02:59] ---
    I want what you want.
[03:01] ---
    Can you not smile like that
    when you say stuff like that?
[03:04] ---
    You're so honest, Mitsuki.
[03:06] ---
    Don't you ever feel like rebelling?
[03:09] ---
    Rebelling?
[03:10] ---
    Yeah, like when you just want
    to go against your parent?
[03:16] ---
    I guess I don't ever feel like that.
[03:20] ---
    Hey!
[03:21] ---
    Hey, you're late,
[03:23] ---
    you—?
[03:28] ---
    Inojin, your shoulder…
[03:30] ---
    Sorry, can we not talk about it.
[03:33] ---
    Listen… This one's a masterpiece.
[03:36] ---
    Yesterday, we had a mission
    at a poultry farm.
[03:44] ---
    Hey, look!
[03:46] ---
    An egg! I wonder if it was just laid?
[03:49] ---
    An omelet or sunny-side up?
[03:51] ---
    You gonna eat it, Chubs?!
[03:53] ---
    What?
[03:54] ---
    This egg's…
[04:07] ---
    And the chick totally bonded with him.
[04:11] ---
    Man, what's going on?!
[04:14] ---
    It's imprinting.
[04:15] ---
    What's that?
[04:16] ---
    When a chick hatches
    out of its egg,
[04:18] ---
    he thinks the first thing
    he sees is his parent.
[04:22] ---
    And a bonding takes place.
[04:24] ---
    And that's called
    the "imprinting effect."
[04:28] ---
    The first thing it sees
    gets imprinted in his heart…
[04:35] ---
    That's interesting, huh?
[04:37] ---
    Isn't that nice, Daddy Inojin!
[04:40] ---
    Give me a break!
[04:42] ---
    Come on now…
[04:44] ---
    We're helping with security for
    the Five Kage Summit today.
[04:47] ---
    Eat up and let's get to work!
[04:50] ---
    Yeah, yeah…
[04:54] ---
    By all rights,
[04:55] ---
    we should have reconvened
    right after Momoshiki's attack,
[05:00] ---
    but it got pushed back.
    So I apologize for that.
[05:02] ---
    All the villages experienced chaos.
[05:06] ---
    The Otsutsuki Clan
    is the main agenda, right?
[05:09] ---
    Considering the importance
    of the topic,
[05:12] ---
    we've asked the previous Kage
    to join us.
[05:16] ---
    Let's not stand on ceremony.
[05:19] ---
    Shall I peel one for you?
[05:21] ---
    Oh, thank you.
[05:23] ---
    Where's Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki?
[05:26] ---
    About that…
[05:27] ---
    We were together until we entered
    Hidden Leaf Village, but…
[05:31] ---
    But when I realized—
[05:32] ---
    So the legendary Ohnoki
    has gone senile too?
[05:38] ---
    Knowing Ohnoki, he's probably blown up
    a building or two by now.
[05:43] ---
    I guess it can't be helped.
[05:45] ---
    He's probably
    sightseeing somewhere.
[05:48] ---
    Well, I'll send someone
    to go look for him.
[05:50] ---
    So can we start, Kurotsuchi?
[05:52] ---
    Yeah, please do.
[05:54] ---
    Seriously, that old geezer!
[06:04] ---
    Stay on your toes.
[06:06] ---
    Yeah, but we're only keeping watch.
[06:10] ---
    Mitsuki, got any interesting stories
    that'll wake me up?
[06:15] ---
    Maybe this isn't interesting,
    but can I ask you something?
[06:19] ---
    Huh?
[06:21] ---
    Have you ever felt uneasy
[06:24] ---
    that maybe your thoughts
    weren't your own, Boruto?
[06:29] ---
    What kind of question
    is that all of a sudden?
[06:31] ---
    Earlier, that chick thought
    Inojin was its parent.
[06:36] ---
    Maybe it's more accurate to say
    it was forced to believe that?
[06:40] ---
    Like it's caught in a genjutsu
    that it can't break out of.
[06:45] ---
    If so, then maybe this feeling
    of wanting to be with you guys…
[06:51] ---
    Maybe I'm being made
    to feel this way…
[06:56] ---
    That's just the feeling I got.
[06:58] ---
    Listen, we're not chicks.
[07:02] ---
    There's no way
    you've been imprinted, okay?
[07:05] ---
    I see…
[07:07] ---
    You're right.
[07:11] ---
    What about you, Boruto?
    Got any fun stories?
[07:15] ---
    Hmm…
[07:17] ---
    Oh yeah…
[07:22] ---
    My dad gave me
    a strange quiz yesterday.
[07:25] ---
    Lord Seventh did?
[07:27] ---
    What's the hardest rock
    in the world?
[07:32] ---
    The hardest rock in the world…?
[07:35] ---
    Are you saying,
[07:36] ---
    the Great Stone Faces
    are carved out of it?
[07:38] ---
    That's not what I mean…
[07:40] ---
    But it's like a treasure to shinobi.
[07:45] ---
    Do you know what that is, Boruto?
[07:48] ---
    Hmm…
[07:50] ---
    It's gotta be a diamond, huh?
[07:51] ---
    There's no way
    the answer's that simple.
[07:54] ---
    I guess not.
[07:55] ---
    Damn it…
[07:57] ---
    Now that I remembered his question,
    it's really bugging me.
[08:02] ---
    Hey, let me see it.
[08:03] ---
    I wonder if something happened?
[08:04] ---
    I dunno.
[08:06] ---
    I'll go and ask.
[08:11] ---
    Hey, you know…
[08:12] ---
    You should try to listen more seriously
    to Mitsuki's troubles.
[08:16] ---
    I do listen!
[08:18] ---
    If you keep taking things so lightly,
    he might stop liking you.
[08:22] ---
    That'll never happen.
[08:24] ---
    We're actually really good friends!
[08:27] ---
    Yeah sure, you'll regret it one day.
[08:30] ---
    This man seems to be lost
    in the village.
[08:34] ---
    So, they want us to help
    look for him.
[08:37] ---
    Ohnoki of the Land of Earth…?
[08:39] ---
    Hey, isn't this
    theThird Lord Tsuchikage?
[08:42] ---
    Hey, perfect timing!
[08:45] ---
    Huh? What is?
[08:47] ---
    Lord Tsuchikage is from
    the Hidden Stone Village.
[08:50] ---
    In other words, he's an expert
    on rocks, right?
[08:53] ---
    He's got to know what
    the hardest rock in the world is!
[09:03] ---
    So he's over a hundred years old…
[09:05] ---
    Even if he is
    the Third Tsuchikage,
[09:07] ---
    finding a frail old man like him
    should be easy.
[09:11] ---
    Don't you guys even know?
[09:13] ---
    He's known
    as Ohnoki the Fence-Sitter,
[09:15] ---
    but he's famous as a hero's hero
    in the shinobi world.
[09:18] ---
    This man's Particle Release Jutsu is
    a super-rare Kekkei Touta.
[09:23] ---
    Hmm…
[09:24] ---
    This old man, huh?
[09:27] ---
    Oh…
[09:28] ---
    Hey!
[09:30] ---
    What's the big idea?!
    Give it back!
[09:33] ---
    This drawing…
[09:36] ---
    doesn't look like me at all!
[09:39] ---
    Could you be…Mr. Ohnoki?
[09:44] ---
    You're Boruto Uzumaki, aren't you?
[09:47] ---
    How do you know my name?
[09:50] ---
    I've had my fair share of looking
    after Naruto.
[09:55] ---
    And you're Sarada of
    the Uchiha Clan, right?
[10:00] ---
    And you are…um…
[10:03] ---
    I'm Mitsuki.
[10:04] ---
    I see.
[10:06] ---
    They've been looking for you,
    Mr. Ohnoki.
[10:09] ---
    You have to return to
    the Five Kage Summit…
[10:11] ---
    I don't want to!
[10:12] ---
    I want no part of
    that boring meeting!
[10:17] ---
    You say that, but…
[10:19] ---
    If you insist on taking me back…
[10:23] ---
    I'll turn you all into dust
    with my Particle Style…
[10:28] ---
    Owwww…
[10:30] ---
    That's the Particle Style?
[10:32] ---
    No way…
[10:33] ---
    Just being touched by
    the Particle Style
[10:35] ---
    is supposed to make you disintegrate
    to an atomic level.
[10:38] ---
    My back… My back…
[10:42] ---
    Here you go!
[10:44] ---
    It's working!
[10:46] ---
    Okay now, just be good and…
[10:48] ---
    By the way, old man…
[10:50] ---
    What is it?
[10:51] ---
    Hey, Boruto!
[10:52] ---
    Do you know what the hardest rock
    in the world is?
[10:56] ---
    What? You don't even know that?
[10:59] ---
    So you know?!
[11:00] ---
    C'mon, tell me!
[11:03] ---
    Hmm, what should I do?
[11:06] ---
    Please! I'll do anything!
[11:09] ---
    Oh? Well then…
[11:11] ---
    Instead of taking me into custody,
[11:14] ---
    if you show me around
    the village…
[11:17] ---
    Then I'll consider telling you.
[11:20] ---
    Seriously?!
[11:21] ---
    Boruto!
[11:21] ---
    You should heed the request of
    an old man whose days are limited.
[11:26] ---
    If you're okay with it, Boruto,
    I don't mind.
[11:28] ---
    C'mon, Mitsuki, not you too?
[11:30] ---
    All right!
[11:32] ---
    I'll show you around!
[11:55] ---
    DUMPLINGS
    
[12:01] ---
    Are you sure it's all right?
[12:03] ---
    To ditch the Five Kage Summit?
[12:06] ---
    They're probably talking
    nonsense anyway.
[12:11] ---
    EARTH WATER FIRE WIND LIGHTNING
    
    
    There was one more person…
[12:13] ---
    calling himself an Otsutsuki, right?
[12:15] ---
    Yeah, the one with the fishing rod.
[12:18] ---
    We should dispatch
    a subjugation force immediately.
[12:21] ---
    Sasuke's gone after him.
[12:23] ---
    It would be unwise to act in haste.
[12:26] ---
    Aside from those three…
[12:28] ---
    we should assume there are others
    in the Otsutsuki Clan.
[12:31] ---
    Maybe we shouldn't be
    assembled like this,
[12:34] ---
    making dull conversation?
[12:36] ---
    That's exactly the reason
    why it's essential that we assemble.
[12:43] ---
    You peel so carefully.
[12:46] ---
    I have a thing about stuff like this.
[12:48] ---
    How can you be so calm?
[12:50] ---
    We could be attacked at any moment!
[12:53] ---
    According to the intel from Sasuke,
    the Otsutsuki Clan's ability
[12:57] ---
    to move through dimensions
    requires enormous energy.
[13:00] ---
    It's safe to assume
[13:01] ---
    we have a little more time before
    they can attack again—
[13:03] ---
    How can you be so easygoing?
[13:07] ---
    Just eat it peel and all!
    It's full of nutrients!
[13:11] ---
    I have a delicate nature, you see…
[13:13] ---
    Hey!
[13:14] ---
    Can we stop trivializing
    the situation at hand?!
[13:17] ---
    What's the point of
    panicking right now?
[13:20] ---
    When you have as much
    experience as we do,
[13:22] ---
    we don't jump at every little thing.
[13:25] ---
    Another bad dream like
    Kaguya's attack,
[13:28] ---
    is enough to make anyone nervous.
[13:30] ---
    But nothing is gained
    by being unsettled.
[13:33] ---
    I-I'm not unsettled!
[13:36] ---
    But you…and even Ohnoki,
    have no sense of the danger!
[13:41] ---
    Speaking of which…
[13:43] ---
    Grandpa Ohnoki always
    used to say…
[13:47] ---
    We have
    the "strongest thing in the world."
[13:55] ---
    I can't even see
    what's in front of us.
[13:59] ---
    Don't complain.
[14:01] ---
    You must always heed
    the words of an old man
[14:03] ---
    whose days are limited,
    to the very end.
[14:06] ---
    You keep saying that!
[14:08] ---
    Hey, is this geezer really
    a legendary shinobi?
[14:14] ---
    SAFETY FIRST
    
[14:16] ---
    Hey, let's start heading back.
[14:19] ---
    Okay, okay!
[14:29] ---
    It's dangerous!
[14:37] ---
    Particle Style…
[14:38] ---
    Atomic Dismantling Jutsu!
[14:43] ---
    Hey!
[14:44] ---
    What's that?!
[14:46] ---
    Just now, that was…
[14:48] ---
    the Particle Style…
[14:53] ---
    Awesome!
[14:54] ---
    That was super amazing, y'know!
[14:57] ---
    Huh?
[14:59] ---
    Hey, old man! Old man!
[15:04] ---
    Grandpa!
[15:05] ---
    Grandpa Ohnoki! Wake up!
[15:09] ---
    C'mon, Grandpa Ohnoki!
[15:12] ---
    Oh… Kozuchi…
[15:17] ---
    You're alive!
[15:19] ---
    I thought you'd…
[15:23] ---
    Old man…
[15:26] ---
    You okay?
[15:36] ---
    Forgive me…
[15:38] ---
    Yeah…
[15:40] ---
    But that Particle Style
    was awesome!
[15:43] ---
    Sorry we were so suspicious.
[15:47] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[15:49] ---
    By the way…
[15:50] ---
    Hmm?
[15:51] ---
    Earlier…I could have sworn
    you said Kozuchi…
[15:55] ---
    Yes…
[15:56] ---
    Kozuchi is my grandchild.
[16:02] ---
    He was…very smart.
[16:09] ---
    Did he die?
[16:13] ---
    He was just about your age.
[16:19] ---
    Well, it's all in the past.
[16:22] ---
    Even if the Five Great Nations
    have a strong union…
[16:26] ---
    sometimes you cannot protect a life.
[16:29] ---
    That is reality.
[16:37] ---
    Now then!
[16:39] ---
    You have all
    been very good to me…
[16:42] ---
    I guess I should give you
    the answer to your question…
[16:47] ---
    What's he doing?
[16:48] ---
    Who knows?
[16:52] ---
    Now choose, which of these
    is the world's hardest rock.
[16:56] ---
    One of these is it?
[16:59] ---
    Do you know the answer?
[17:02] ---
    Hmm?
[17:03] ---
    None of them seem very special.
[17:06] ---
    Hmm…
[17:09] ---
    Could it be this one?
[17:11] ---
    I pick this!
[17:13] ---
    And you, Mitsuki?
[17:20] ---
    I'm good.
[17:22] ---
    Then the two of you… You're sure?
[17:26] ---
    – Y-Yeah!
    – Yeah!
[17:29] ---
    Both of you are…
[17:31] ---
    wrong.
[17:33] ---
    I knew it!
[17:35] ---
    I figured it was that one.
[17:38] ---
    This one…is wrong too.
[17:41] ---
    – Huh?!
    – Huh?!
[17:43] ---
    The hardest rock in the world is…
[17:49] ---
    The bedrock you have inside you…
[17:52] ---
    Huh?
[17:53] ---
    No matter what the adversity,
    your bedrock never shatters.
[18:00] ---
    Your will is the bedrock that is
    the hardest "rock" in the world.
[18:03] ---
    That's the answer.
[18:05] ---
    So that's it. Now I get it.
[18:09] ---
    It goes for you all too…
[18:10] ---
    No matter what hardship or sorrow
    you encounter from now,
[18:15] ---
    never discard your bedrock,
    your will.
[18:19] ---
    Right!
[18:21] ---
    The world's hardest "rock," huh…
[18:24] ---
    Well, I knew that from the beginning.
[18:26] ---
    Well, that's a lie!
[18:28] ---
    Well, I did know!
[18:29] ---
    You didn't even have a clue!
[18:32] ---
    Say that again!
[18:33] ---
    Humph!
[18:34] ---
    Just a minute!
[18:36] ---
    Hey, Boruto!
[18:39] ---
    It seems your bedrock is
    a bit shaky.
[18:44] ---
    It's very complicated…
    This thing called will.
[18:48] ---
    It's something that you don't acquire
    without sacrifice.
[18:53] ---
    You need to have faith to get it.
[18:56] ---
    Obtaining a will…
[18:59] ---
    But how do I make sure
    that it's really my own will?
[19:06] ---
    That is a difficult question…
[19:10] ---
    Just…
[19:11] ---
    Just?
[19:13] ---
    If you keep hitting a wall,
    and you keep clinging to it…
[19:21] ---
    Then perhaps…
    that's your true will.
[19:29] ---
    It's gotta be like I figured out
    the answer myself…
[19:32] ---
    So don't say anything
    to my dad.
[19:34] ---
    Don't say anything?
[19:36] ---
    Why, I gave that quiz
    to Naruto myself.
[19:39] ---
    No kidding, really?
[19:41] ---
    Damn it, Dad!
[19:43] ---
    He acted like he came up
    with the question himself.
[19:45] ---
    I had fun sightseeing,
    thanks to you all.
[19:50] ---
    If you are ever in the Land of Earth,
    come and visit me.
[19:55] ---
    Well, that's only if I'm still alive.
[20:01] ---
    Okay, anyway…
[20:03] ---
    We'll escort you to
    the Hokage's Offices…
[20:05] ---
    Before that, I want to eat
    another stick of dumplings.
[20:10] ---
    After all, I'm…
[20:12] ---
    …an old man whose days
    are limited, right?
[20:23] ---
    So it was just a trick question…
[20:26] ---
    We wasted our time thinking
    so hard about it, right, Mitsuki?
[20:32] ---
    Really?
[20:35] ---
    I thought it was a good answer.
[21:36] ---
    AN
    
[21:40] ---
    The Five Kage Summit is over.
[21:41] ---
    You think we'll be relieved
    from guard duty today?
[21:43] ---
    I hope so.
[23:26] ---
    So Mitsuki lived here…
[23:29] ---
    Did you know, Boruto?
[23:30] ---
    I heard he lived alone, but…
[23:34] ---
    We never heard him talk
[23:35] ---
    about his parents or
    his home village, did we?
[23:38] ---
    Yeah…
[23:40] ---
    Even though
    we were always together…
[23:43] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:46] ---
    "Mitsuki's Will"
    
    
[23:48] ---
    I guess we really didn't know
    everything about Mitsuki…

    MITSUKI'S WILL
