Boruto Naruto Next Generations

Prior to entering the Ninja Academy, Boruto meets a boy named Denki, who is being forced to join the academy for the sake of his father's company.

After being suspended for the uproar he caused at the entrance ceremony, Boruto makes his way to the academy for the first time. His classmates ostracize him for being the son of the Seventh Hokage and for being suspended. Iwabe Yuino, one of Boruto's classmates, picks a fight with him. Iwabe is an older student who has a keen sense for battle, but was held back a year for his bad behavior. At first, Boruto ignores him no matter what he says. But when he sees Iwabe punch Denki for telling him to stop, Boruto can't ignore him any longer.

At the suggestion of Shino Aburame, their homeroom teacher, Boruto and his classmates split off into gendered teams to capture flags placed on the roof. Boruto and the rest of the boys' team quickly head for the roof, but they struggle with traps and the girls' team, led by Sarada Uchiha and Chocho Akimichi. Desperate to capture a flag before the girls' team, Boruto tries out a Summoning Jutsu, but he ends up summoning something unexpected!

Boruto, Shikadai and Mitsuki arrive at the location they are told to go to by Shino. They notice their teacher is acting different than he usually does— and Shino suddenly attacks them! Shino belongs to the Aburame clan, a clan of Insect Users. He unleashes a swarm of Parasitic Insects. Boruto and the others can't match the skill of someone who's a jonin. But even in this situation, Mitsuki remains calm and coldly stares at Shino.

Cho-Cho's scared because she thinks she's being watched by someone, so she decides to catch them in the act. She succeeds in snagging Magire Kakuremino, and it turns out he wasn't watching Cho-Cho, but Sumire, the class rep, whom he secretly likes. Cho-Cho urges him to declare his love, and at first Magire hesitates. But he takes the leap and tells Sumire how he feels!

The shadowy, warped chakra that only Boruto can see takes over more people, causing them to rampage. It only affected people within the Academy at first, but now it’s extending its reach into the village. Can it be stopped? And later, a Visual Jutsu places Boruto within a dream—and afterward, Boruto declares the dream has awakened his Byakugan, the Kekkei Genkai unique to his mother’s Hyuga Clan. Naruto does not believe him, so Boruto seeks advice from his grandfather, Hiashi Hyuga.

Under his father and grandfather’s guidance, Boruto spars with his aunt Hanabi. Boruto has sought this match in order to win acceptance from his father, but no matter how hard he tries, he can’t activate his Byakugan in any form. He begins to doubt that he even saw the shadowy warped chakra at all, and feels even worse when people begin to think he lied. But then Boruto sees another person being manipulated by the mysterious shadow

Boruto nicknames the mysterious shadow “The Ghost” and is excited when he and his friends Shikadai and Mitsuki decide to solve the recent “Ghost Incidents.” Shino secretly lends Boruto a helping hand by giving their class an assignment to research different workplaces. Meanwhile, Sai, who once served in The Foundation of the ANBU Black Ops, makes a big discovery while investigating the same incident under orders from the Hokate.

During a tour of workplaces for their school assignment, Sumire, Wasabi Izuno and Namida Suzumeno get wrapped up in the Ghost Incident and are hurt. Boruto feels bad that he wasn't there to prevent their harm, and becomes more determined to solve the case. With the help of Tayori Kuroyagi the postal worker, along with Shikadai and Mitsuki, the team scans the village more closely. Then Shikadai and Mitsuki realize one possibility from something Boruto says casually.

The Ghost incidents suddenly come to an end and Boruto and his classmates are puzzled, but Mitsuki seems to know something they don't. Mitsuki himself realizes he's been undergoing some puzzling changes and questions his classmates in order to figure out his predicament. Soon after, a mysterious chakra begins to spread throughout the village.

After Mitsuki reveals more information about the Ghost incidents, Boruto is determined to find and stop the culprit! Meanwhile, Seventh Hokage Naruto and his top advisors are shocked to learn who the perpetrator is from the results of Sai's investigation. Just then, Nue—an enormous otherworldly beast—appears! The imminent danger to the village forces the Sixth Hokage, Kakashi, out of retirement!

The late Danzo Shimura was the founder and leader of the Foundation, an elite branch of the ANBU Black Ops. The recent incidents have been masterminded by someone who had sworn to carry on Danzo's wishes. Boruto is able to enter another world with his strange "eye." The perpetrator wields the Gozu Tennou, a weapon that relies on the power of the beast Nue, and is set on destroying the village. Boruto desperately tries to dissuade them, but can Boruto's thoughts unleash a curse from the past?!

The ghost incident that threatened the Hidden Leaf Village is over, and now Boruto is unable to awaken the mysterious power he used. Things return to normal in the village and the Academy, but one thing still troubles Boruto and his classmates...

Boruto pulls a prank and is pursued around the village by Naruto. Seeing this, Sarada can't help but be exasperated, but a part of her grows wistful as she thinks of her father, Sasuke, whom she hasn't seen since she was a baby. She begins to feel doubt after she sees a photo of Sasuke with a young woman wearing glasses. Sarada becomes determined to learn the truth. Will the secret of Sarada Uchiha's birth be revealed?!

After Sarada is nearly attacked by Sasuke, she is upset with her father for not recognizing her and for no answers to her questions. After Sarada runs off, Naruto tries to comfort her, but they are attacked by Shin and a mysterious man.

After Sakura is kidnapped by Shin, Naruto is unable to locate her, which makes Sarada worried. To find Shin, the group decides to head to the person he may have a connection to: Orochimaru.

After deciding she wants to be the one to save her mother, Sarada and the others hurry to Shin's hideout to find Sakura.

The Leaf Village becomes excited with the arrival of the other Kage for the Five Kage Summit. Boruto takes this opportunity to graffiti the Hokage Stone Faces. Meanwhile, Sarada begins to practice using her Sharingan.

Boruto and his class head to the Water country, towards Village of the Hidden Mist, for a field trip. Guided by Kagura Karatachi, Boruto and his friends couldn’t believe that a village that is so overflowing with life and modern used to be called the Village of the Bloody Mist, and that children were made to battle each other to the death back then. However, there are ninjas in the Hidden Mist that are unhappy with the current situation of the village too.

Boruto and his friends are being led through the Village of the Hidden Mist by Kagura and the 6th Mizukage, Chojuro, visiting their Academy. The Hidden Mist have increased their attention on sword techniques, and Boruto, seeing this intense view of the lesson, becomes excited. He then requests a bout with Kagura from Chojuro.

Tsurushi Hachiya had been with Kagura throughout the Academy years, and now he finds Boruto a nuisance, and attempts to draw Boruto and his friends out by abducting Denki. In an attempt to save Denki, Boruto and his friends join Kagura, and head towards Hachiya, and battle with a large group of allies that had been gathered against them. During that time, a truth that Kagura had been hiding comes to light.

Kagura makes up his mind to accept the famed sword Hiramekarei from Chojuro, but unwittingly becomes part of a plot set up by Kagura’s old acquaintance, Shizuma Hoshigaki, a man who opposes the new, peaceful shinobi order.

Kagura unlocks the storeroom to let Shizuma take the Mist Blades. The New Seven Ninja Swordsmen begin an insurrection, the end goal being to turn their village back into the Blood Mist Village! News of the rebellion reaches Chojuro and Mei, the current and previous Mizukage. They are determined to execute the perpetrators, along with Kagura, who aided them. In order to change Chojuro's mind, Boruto makes an astonishing announcement.

Chojuro leads Boruto and Sarada to the location where Shizuma and his "New Seven Shinobi Swordsmen" are based. Shizuma uses his jutsu to create a fog that clouds the trio's vision, and they end up getting separated. Sarada is forced into one-on-one combat with a kunoichi, Buntan Kurosuki, who wields the Lightning Blade, Kiba the Fang! In the thick fog, Sarada uses her Sharingan, but her enemy is stronger than expected. Driven into a corner, she comes up with a counterattack. Meanwhile, Boruto goes up against none other than Kagura.

Boruto urges his friend Kagura to return with him, but Kagura rejects him and begins to attack. Although Boruto is desperate to save him, Kagura once again falls under a spell and is unable to defy Shizuma. Then someone steps in between the two as they battle. It's Mitsuki, and he has obtained intel about the rebellion. Just what is the intel, and can Boruto save his friend?

[Filler] The field trip comes to an end, and Boruto and his friends prepare to return to Hidden Leaf. Chojuro, the Mizukage, sees them off, but Kagura is nowhere to be seen. The class makes it back to the Leaf Village safely and Boruto is relieved to be home. But Himawari isn't her usual cheerful self. She's been looking forward to the souvenir that Boruto promised her, which he completely forgot to get! Boruto decides to tell the truth and beg for Himawari's forgiveness, but he misses his chance, and things gets worse!

While Boruto is watching on, Naruto and Sasuke begin their battle against Momoshiki, who has attained further power. As the two heroes who defeated Kaguya who was also from the Otsutsuki clan in the past, Naruto and Sasuke demonstrate their tremendous power to overwhelm Momoshiki. However, the intrusion of an unexpected party disrupts the situation. Naruto and the others are cornered in a desperate situation. Boruto is then entrusted to enact a crucial strategy by his master, Sasuke.

The ninja from the various villages who had gathered for the Chunin Examinations begin their road home, and life in the village gradually returns to normal. Boruto, who broke the rules in the Chunin Examination, made his apologies to everyone, and is now concerned about Momoshiki’s statement of “from henceforth you will be shouldering a cruel destiny”. What will Boruto make of this statement through all of his experience until now?

Akamichi Chocho of the Inoshikacho trio has a well rounded body type and loves delicious food. In saying that, due to her age she starts wanting a handsome boyfriend, and so begins to look after her figure. During that time, Team 10 of the InoShikaCho trio and Team 7 with Boruto and friends are tasked to protect the main actor of a popular television drama, Tomaru, and his in-show girlfriend Ashina, together. Boruto gathers to hear about the details of the mission, and sees a pretty young lady he had never seen before.

Team 7 and Team 10 are visiting the filming location of the drama for their mission when they are attacked by ninja wearing gas masks, and an actress has been injured. The main actor Tomaru has specified a person to stand in for the actress, and that person is Chocho……!? Tomaru has taken an interest in the slimmed down Chocho, and Tomaru’s attitude and has Chocho over the moon.

The main actor of a television drama Tomaru has been kidnapped by the ninjas who appeared previously during a shoot, and they are demanding a ransom. Chocho is extremely concerned about Tomaru, and is angry at Tomaru’s bodyguards, Jonin Konohamaru and Moegi, for being unable to prevent this from happening despite being there. The female lead Ashina has been chosen to be the one to pay the ransom by the kidnappers, but among all this, Boruto and Shikadai can’t help but feel that something is off about this whole situation.

Metal has begun training to study the ultimate Taijutsu technique, the “Eight Gates”, from his father Rock Lee. To prevent himself from losing his nerves and failing at the training, Metal sought out an item that can calm his nerves. But for some reason the item has no effect, and is told by his father to stop the training. At this time, Metal meets his father’s mentor, Might Guy, who fought in the Fourth Great Ninja War, and faced off against the mastermind of the war together with Kakashi.

The first Five Kage Summit since the Otsutsuki clan’s invasion is being held in the Village of the Hidden Leaf, and the past Kages are also gathering. However the third Tsuchikage Ohnoki who was meant to come has not appeared, and the meeting has begun without him. Around this time Boruto and rest of Team 7 are attending a meeting with other ninjas in regards to security during the summit. But Boruto is bored by this unexciting mission, and is completely disinterested. Mitsuki then poses a certain question to his teammates of Team 7.

The ninjas who were guarding the entrance to Village of the Hidden Leaf have been attacked by someone, and Mitsuki has vanished. The unknowing Boruto and Sarada visit Mitsuki’s house, where he lives by himself, to pass on a message that a mission that was planned for them has suddenly been cancelled. Having not met him, they grow concerned and begin looking for him. On the way, they meet the Jonin of the village, who have been summoned by the Hokage, and enquires as to what is going on.

Boruto and Sarada have snuck out of Konohagakure to go look for Mitsuki despite the village being on high alert. Seeking clues on Mitsuki’s whereabouts, the two head toward the lab of his so-called “parent”, Orochimaru. Boruto manages to catch the guards off guard and sneak through the entrance into the lab. Upon seeing what lay within, together with what he heard from Orochimaru, Boruto realizes that he actually doesn’t know anything about Mitsuki. Around this time, the village figures out that Boruto and Sarada are missing, so Shikadai and the rest of Team 10 are entrusted with the task of tracking them down.

Seeking clues on Mitsuki’s whereabouts, Boruto and Sarada decide to go to Ryuchi Cave, home to the White Snake Sage that Orochimaru spoke of. Unfortunately, they have no clue where Ryuchi Cave is located. To make matters worse, Team 10 (lead by Moegi) block their path in order to bring them back by any means necessary. Boruto and Sarada manage to shake them off, but can the two really make it all the way to the White Snake Sage?

Boruto and Sarada manage to shake them off, but can the two really make it all the way to the White Snake Sage?

The White Snake Sage tells Boruto and Sarada to acquire scales called “Gekirin” from the wild serpent Garaga. As they travel through Ryuchi Cave to get the Gekirin, an enormous snake appears before them. This snake was in fact Garaga, but Boruto and Sarada find themselves in a tough spot, overwhelmed by its size and ferocity. Meanwhile, Moegi from Team 10 reports back to Konohagakure. From her report, it seem that somebody who acquired knowledge of the village’s top-secret information may be related to Mitsuki’s disappearance.

Determined to get their hands on the Gekirin via whatever means necessary, Boruto teams up with the others to try and corner Garaga. But Garaga’s ability to accurately detect the location of his opponents and the ability to change them into stone forces Boruto into a hard battle. Amidst the battle, Boruto and his friends recall a strangeness in Garaga’s movement and form a strategy according to that, and are finally able to corner Garaga. Then, Boruto raises a certain proposal to Garaga.

Mitsuki is taken by Hidden Stone Ninjas, Kokuyō, Sekiei and others. Yokuyō* (Kokuyō) and the others are heading towards their home country, the Land of Earth. On the other side, after receiving the information from the White Snake Sage using his power that Mitsuki is headed towards the Land of Earth, Boruto and his group are also advancing towards the Land of Earth.
