[00:26] ---
    That was close!
[00:28] ---
    I can't just leave you behind.
[00:31] ---
    I can't get caught here either.
[00:42] ---
    I gotta get back to the rendezvous
    point as soon as possible, or else…
[02:17] ---
    Ohnoki's Thoughts, Ku's Thoughts
    
    
    
[02:27] ---
    Where am…I?
[02:31] ---
    You're finally up, Old Man.
[02:36] ---
    Boruto!
[02:38] ---
    You saved my life?
[02:41] ---
    I wasn't really trying to.
[02:45] ---
    I didn't even realize
    I was carrying you.
[02:49] ---
    Anyway…
[02:50] ---
    What were you doing with
    those guys?
[02:53] ---
    What the hell is going on?
[02:56] ---
    I already told you.
    I'm doing it for peace.
[03:00] ---
    I don't get it.
[03:02] ---
    Because of them,
    a lot of Leaf shinobi died!
[03:07] ---
    That is something I deeply regret.
[03:10] ---
    But this is all for the sake of
    peace in the Ninja World.
[03:14] ---
    It's also to help protect you,
    as well.
[03:18] ---
    Why do we need to be protected?!
[03:22] ---
    It's because you're weak.
[03:24] ---
    Huh?!
[03:25] ---
    Do you even know
    what I can do, Old Man?
[03:28] ---
    I do.
[03:30] ---
    Young people these days
    are weak and unreliable.
[03:34] ---
    What did you say?!
[03:36] ---
    I defeated the Otsutsuki!
[03:38] ---
    Don't let it go to your head!
[03:40] ---
    I have my own reasons
    for doing what I'm doing.
[03:43] ---
    Though right now,
    you probably won't understand.
[03:46] ---
    Oh, is that right?
[03:48] ---
    I've had enough of this!
[03:50] ---
    You're on your own from here!
[03:51] ---
    I'm going back to my friends.
[03:54] ---
    You can't.
[03:55] ---
    What?!
[03:57] ---
    I never thought
    we'd end up here…
[04:01] ---
    What the hell are you
    talking about?
[04:03] ---
    This is the Sanzu Plains.
[04:06] ---
    It's surrounded by
    a powerful barrier.
[04:09] ---
    Once inside,
    you can't get out easily.
[04:14] ---
    You're just lying
    to keep me from leaving.
[04:19] ---
    I'm not lying.
[04:21] ---
    I don't believe you!
[04:23] ---
    I'll just go out
    the way I came in.
[04:26] ---
    Then go ahead and try!
[04:40] ---
    What the hell's happening?
[04:42] ---
    No matter how far I walk,
    I end up in the same place.
[04:45] ---
    The Sanzu Plain is a Hidden Stone
    shinobi training ground.
[04:51] ---
    The only way to get out is to find
    your individual "heart stone"
[04:54] ---
    that lies somewhere here.
[04:59] ---
    Then all I have to do is find
    that heart stone?
[05:03] ---
    How about…
[05:06] ---
    this one.
[05:07] ---
    This will be my heart stone!
[05:10] ---
    It's not that simple.
[05:13] ---
    Then is there
    an easy-to-follow strategy?
[05:16] ---
    Nope.
[05:18] ---
    The heart stone's glow is visible
    only to self-reliant people
[05:22] ---
    who truly confront who they are.
[05:27] ---
    A person who is unwilling to train
    will never find it.
[05:31] ---
    Are you serious?
[05:33] ---
    Damn it!
[05:35] ---
    In that case, I'll use my shadow
    clones to find a way out of here!
[05:39] ---
    Shadow Clone Jutsu!
[05:43] ---
    Hey…
[05:44] ---
    Just so you know, you can't use
    jutsu within this barrier.
[05:48] ---
    No jutsu, either?!
[05:50] ---
    Just how important is this stone?
[05:53] ---
    That depends on how you look at it.
[05:56] ---
    It is, after all, just a pebble.
[05:59] ---
    Just a pebble? With no powers?
[06:02] ---
    It's not the stone itself
    that has value.
[06:06] ---
    It's about how you found it.
[06:09] ---
    The significance is in the process.
[06:11] ---
    Wha—?!
[06:13] ---
    That is so old-fashioned!
[06:17] ---
    The young people in the village
    say the same thing.
[06:20] ---
    They all mock tradition.
[06:24] ---
    Nowadays, nobody comes here
    to search for their heart stone.
[06:30] ---
    Huh? Wait a second…
[06:32] ---
    When you say nobody…
[06:34] ---
    You mean…?
[06:36] ---
    That's right.
[06:37] ---
    The two of us are doomed to rot
    in here without ever getting out.
[06:42] ---
    Quit messing around!
[06:43] ---
    There's no way we can accept that!
[06:46] ---
    Well, that's our reality now.
[06:48] ---
    Rather than finding an exit,
[06:50] ---
    we have to think about
    how we can survive here.
[06:54] ---
    EARTH
    
[07:00] ---
    Have you found
    the master yet?
[07:03] ---
    Regrettably, no.
[07:05] ---
    I had the Akuta comb the area,
    but we still haven't found him.
[07:11] ---
    Then assign more Akuta
    to the search!
[07:15] ---
    But if we expand
    the search too far,
[07:17] ---
    the villagers will become aware of
    the Akutas' presence.
[07:21] ---
    That's what we have Kirara for.
[07:23] ---
    Have her keep things quiet.
[07:26] ---
    Lord Ku, there is a human saying,
[07:29] ---
    that you just can't keep people
    from talking.
[07:32] ---
    It means you can't keep rumors
    from spreading.
[07:37] ---
    Then what would you do?
[07:39] ---
    It's simple, really.
[07:42] ---
    Eliminate every witness.
[07:45] ---
    No. That would be against
    the master's wishes.
[07:48] ---
    We must keep any harm to the humans,
    at an absolute minimum.
[07:52] ---
    Then we will lead the search
    by the Akuta ourselves.
[07:57] ---
    Requesting permission to head out.
[07:58] ---
    I said no!
[08:02] ---
    This is an important moment in
    realizing Master's plan!
[08:06] ---
    Your task is to increase
    production of Akuta.
[08:12] ---
    Use the Akuta to search
    for the master
[08:16] ---
    —and do it secretly!
[08:18] ---
    – Yes, sir!
    – Yes, sir!
[08:26] ---
    What is all of this?
[08:27] ---
    I collected all of this myself!
[08:29] ---
    Isn't it quite human?
[08:31] ---
    It is?
[08:33] ---
    What?
[08:34] ---
    You've lived among humans,
    but you don't even know?
[08:38] ---
    No one I knew did anything
    like this.
[08:42] ---
    Huh? Is that right?
[08:45] ---
    That's weird.
[08:46] ---
    That's not what the intel
    I gathered told me…
[08:50] ---
    Hey, Mitsuki. What are you doing?
[08:54] ---
    Kirara was showing me her things.
[08:57] ---
    A messy room as usual.
[09:00] ---
    Why don't you just dump
    all this stuff?
[09:03] ---
    Keep your dirty hands
    off of my things!
[09:05] ---
    Don't you see how wonderful
    these are?
[09:10] ---
    Who cares? It's all trash.
[09:12] ---
    I'll kill you.
[09:13] ---
    Well, you can do that later.
    Right now, Lord Ku has orders.
[09:16] ---
    He wants you to clamp down further
[09:17] ---
    on information going around
    in the village.
[09:19] ---
    Humph…
[09:20] ---
    You'll never understand humans.
[09:25] ---
    Hey, I've noticed things have been
    pretty noisy since yesterday.
[09:28] ---
    Is there something going on?
[09:30] ---
    I heard some Hidden Leaf shinobi
    came looking for you.
[09:33] ---
    Lord Ku chased them away.
[09:38] ---
    Anyway, when will I get to meet
    Lord Ku?
[09:42] ---
    Things are pretty busy today.
[09:45] ---
    I see. I can wait.
[09:57] ---
    Shikadai.
[10:01] ---
    Shi-ka-da-i.
[10:05] ---
    I guess it's not working.
[10:07] ---
    Okay… How about this one?
[10:10] ---
    Cho-Cho.
[10:13] ---
    Too hard, huh?
[10:15] ---
    This is Cho-Cho.
    Do you understand?
[10:17] ---
    Cho-Cho, the Chubs.
[10:18] ---
    Chubs!
[10:20] ---
    Chubs! Chubs!
[10:21] ---
    Very good, Akkun!
[10:24] ---
    Who's there?!
[10:30] ---
    Sarada! Cho-Cho!
[10:31] ---
    I'm destroyed. I lost weight.
[10:35] ---
    Are you being pursued?
[10:36] ---
    It's crawling with Akuta
    over there.
[10:39] ---
    Where are Boruto and Shikadai?
    Aren't they with you?
[10:43] ---
    Are you saying…
    they're not here yet?!
[10:47] ---
    Maybe they're lost.
[10:49] ---
    Should we look for them?
[10:51] ---
    It's too risky to move right now.
[10:53] ---
    We should wait and see first.
[10:56] ---
    I can't walk another step!
[11:05] ---
    Chubs!
[11:08] ---
    I can't…
[11:11] ---
    I'm so hungry, I can't move.
[11:14] ---
    Damn it.
[11:17] ---
    At this rate, I'll die.
[11:20] ---
    So uncool. This just shows
    that I'm just all talk.
[11:26] ---
    I'm so thirsty.
[11:29] ---
    Water…
[11:32] ---
    That's cold!
[11:35] ---
    Oh, Old Man?!
[11:36] ---
    Like I said… Looks like
    you can't survive here.
[11:43] ---
    Come with me.
[11:45] ---
    Huh?
[11:49] ---
    Here's some water.
[11:50] ---
    Drink.
[11:53] ---
    You sure?
[11:55] ---
    Just drink.
[12:00] ---
    I feel alive again!
[12:03] ---
    You're a lifesaver!
[12:06] ---
    Wanna eat?
[12:07] ---
    You sure?
[12:09] ---
    Here.
[12:13] ---
    A bug?!
[12:14] ---
    It's a valuable source of protein.
[12:16] ---
    It's quite good.
[12:18] ---
    What?! Isn't there anything else?
[12:21] ---
    If you don't want it,
    you can starve to death.
[12:25] ---
    What will it be?
[12:31] ---
    I'm not gonna die here!
[12:36] ---
    Oh?
[12:42] ---
    It's good!
[12:44] ---
    What did I tell you?
[12:46] ---
    Why did you offer me
    water and food?
[12:50] ---
    Well, I figured I owe you
    for saving my life.
[12:54] ---
    My conscience couldn't
    just let you die.
[12:59] ---
    Old Man…
[13:00] ---
    So?
[13:01] ---
    Was I right, or what?
[13:05] ---
    Well, never mind.
[13:06] ---
    For now, lend me a hand.
[13:08] ---
    There's a limit to how much food
    one person can forage.
[13:13] ---
    For now, let's call a truce.
[13:51] ---
    Quite a big change
    from this morning…
[13:55] ---
    Still, it's amazing how much food
    is available here.
[13:59] ---
    Sourcing provisions off the land
    is a basic skill for shinobi.
[14:02] ---
    Didn't they teach you that
    at the Academy?
[14:05] ---
    I read about it in a textbook,
    but we didn't actually do it…
[14:10] ---
    If you keep a sharp eye out,
    you'll see it.
[14:14] ---
    You found bamboo leaves and
    cicada shells, didn't you?
[14:18] ---
    I get it! That means there's material
    for utensils, and insects we can eat.
[14:26] ---
    You didn't realize that—
    and that's a problem.
[14:28] ---
    My word…
[14:30] ---
    Young people these days
    are all about book learning,
[14:33] ---
    but no real-life resourcefulness.
[14:35] ---
    Sorry about that.
[14:37] ---
    So, you finally admit to
    your own shortcomings?
[14:41] ---
    This and that are
    two different things!
[14:45] ---
    Hot!
[14:46] ---
    Don't rush!
[14:48] ---
    Let it cool before you eat.
[14:58] ---
    Unlike the old days,
    you have everything now.
[15:03] ---
    But has that made you stronger
    in the true sense?
[15:10] ---
    When we were young,
    it was a time of war.
[15:15] ---
    There was constant fighting.
[15:17] ---
    We were desperate just to survive.
[15:20] ---
    That forged us
[15:23] ---
    and became our strength.
[15:25] ---
    Are you saying things were better
    when you were at war?
[15:28] ---
    That's not what I mean.
[15:30] ---
    But in a world at war,
    experience counts.
[15:35] ---
    Especially in times like these,
[15:37] ---
    if you don't exercise self-control
    and train constantly,
[15:41] ---
    you won't be able
    fight enemies like Kaguya.
[15:44] ---
    You've actually fought
    the Otsutsuki,
[15:48] ---
    so you know what
    I'm talking about.
[15:52] ---
    I don't ever want to see
    innocent people die again…
[15:59] ---
    That's why I created Ku
    and the others.
[16:05] ---
    Master… Dear Father…
[16:08] ---
    We await your order.
[16:12] ---
    Now that you mention it,
    he called you "Dear Father."
[16:16] ---
    Is it because—?
[16:17] ---
    That's right.
[16:19] ---
    Ku was created from my cells.
[16:22] ---
    He's man-made.
[16:24] ---
    A synthetic human.
[16:27] ---
    Don't be so surprised.
[16:29] ---
    There's one like him among you,
    as well.
[16:39] ---
    The technology that created Ku
    and those like him
[16:41] ---
    is still in its infancy.
[16:43] ---
    To perfect it,
    I need Mitsuki's help.
[16:47] ---
    That's why I invited him here.
[16:52] ---
    If my plan succeeds,
[16:55] ---
    Ku and those like him
    will fight in your place.
[17:00] ---
    They will dutifully protect
    all of you.
[17:03] ---
    But…
[17:05] ---
    I cannot bear the thought
    of promising young people like you
[17:09] ---
    becoming casualties.
[17:14] ---
    The plan is entering
    its final stages.
[17:18] ---
    I'm confident Ku and the others
    can see it through
[17:21] ---
    even without my presence.
[17:24] ---
    I've finally come this far.
    Finally!
[17:33] ---
    So, you're Ku?
[17:35] ---
    We meet at last. I'm…
[17:36] ---
    There's no need for introductions.
[17:39] ---
    With your help,
[17:41] ---
    we are about to gather
    vital data on your heart.
[17:44] ---
    We're grateful to you.
[17:46] ---
    But isn't there
    a Curse Mark on my heart?
[17:50] ---
    It's an older Curse Mark.
[17:52] ---
    It will take time,
[17:53] ---
    but we'll eventually be able
    to complete the analysis.
[17:56] ---
    We can do it now,
    because you've come.
[18:00] ---
    I have one other reason
    for coming here.
[18:04] ---
    I want to know
    the secret behind a will.
[18:07] ---
    The secret behind a will?
[18:09] ---
    You and I,
    we were created by humans.
[18:13] ---
    Were our souls, as well?
[18:15] ---
    Do you think the individual will
    inside of me
[18:17] ---
    is something given to me by humans?
[18:19] ---
    If you want to know the answer,
[18:21] ---
    you should ask the human
    who created you.
[18:25] ---
    However, it seems
    you haven't done that.
[18:28] ---
    Why do you think that is?
[18:32] ---
    I don't know.
[18:34] ---
    They say humans go through
    a rebellious stage as they mature.
[18:38] ---
    If that's true,
[18:39] ---
    then your behavior is
    not all that unusual.
[18:42] ---
    My will is a sign of maturing?
[18:45] ---
    Or, you may have been programmed
    that way to begin with.
[18:50] ---
    But what difference does it make?
[18:55] ---
    To me, either way is fine.
[18:58] ---
    My master possesses
    a noble purpose.
[19:02] ---
    He needed an empty vessel
    to fill with that purpose…
[19:05] ---
    That vessel is me.
[19:07] ---
    This body that Master has given me
    could have been an empty one.
[19:12] ---
    That is why I call myself Ku,
    as in "empty."
[19:15] ---
    I'm told, once upon a time,
    vessels were called tsuki.
[19:19] ---
    You and I are the same, Mitsuki.
[19:23] ---
    An empty vessel…
[19:26] ---
    Does being an empty vessel
    dissatisfy you?
[19:31] ---
    There's no need to
    lament being "empty."
[19:35] ---
    Emptiness expanded to its very limits
    looks down on all it encompasses…
[19:41] ---
    It becomes sora…the sky.
[19:48] ---
    Reading human books again?
[19:51] ---
    Yeah, they're fun.
[19:53] ---
    It says humans can overcome adversity
    depending on one's attitude.
[19:59] ---
    I wonder if that applies to us?
[20:01] ---
    Ridiculous.
[20:03] ---
    That stuff's not going to make
    a difference in strength.
[20:06] ---
    In the first place,
[20:08] ---
    we Synthetics have nothing
    that we can call a soul.
[20:12] ---
    Huh? Where's Mitsuki?
[20:14] ---
    With Lord Ku.
[20:16] ---
    I wanted to show him how beautiful
    I look with this new umbrella I got.
[20:21] ---
    INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY
    
    
    Quit doing stuff like that.
[20:23] ---
    INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY
    
    Just take over for the Tsuchikage
    like you're supposed to.
[20:26] ---
    Huh?!
[20:27] ---
    Don't tell me that
    when you're the one who's slacking!
[20:30] ---
    Huh? Who's slacking?
[20:33] ---
    I'm not the one having fun
    pretending to be human like you are.
[20:37] ---
    I'm studying the human soul.
[20:39] ---
    What can you understand
    about humans from a book?!
[20:43] ---
    Both of you, shut up.
[20:45] ---
    Humans aren't worth it.
[20:47] ---
    Stop wasting your time
    on things like that.
[20:49] ---
    – How dare you!
    – What?!
[20:52] ---
    Okay, okay.
    That's enough.
[20:55] ---
    I get that you're interested
    in humans,
[20:58] ---
    but among us here,
[21:00] ---
    the one who best
    understands humans is me.
[21:07] ---
    Kakou…
[21:08] ---
    When you're done,
    can I borrow that book?
[21:11] ---
    I'm interested in books
    about humans.
[21:13] ---
    Take it now if you like.
[21:16] ---
    Sure?
[21:18] ---
    Here you go.
[21:24] ---
    Kakou?
[21:28] ---
    It just started all of a sudden.
[21:30] ---
    Kirara!
[21:31] ---
    Kakou needs first aid!
[21:33] ---
    Kirara?!
[21:36] ---
    This isn't beautiful at all…
[23:25] ---
    Damn it!
[23:26] ---
    I can't be stuck here
    relaxing like this.
[23:28] ---
    We really ended up in
    a bad location!
[23:30] ---
    Like I told you,
[23:31] ---
    to get out of the Sanzu Plains,
    you have to find your heart stone.
[23:35] ---
    Does that thing really exist?
[23:37] ---
    I just can't believe such
    a special stone is around here, somewhere!
[23:41] ---
    Next time on Boruto
    Naruto Next Generations:
[23:43] ---
    "The Heart Stone"
    
    
    
[23:45] ---
    If you realize or grasp something
    while you're here,
    
    
    
[23:48] ---
    you'll obtain the heart stone.
