My son is inside of there.
My son!
It's dangerous. Please stand back!
Let go! Don't touch me!
Take Lord Sanzui to a safe location!
Let go! Don't touch me!
Follow me!
Water Style: Water Wall!
Dr. Katasuke!
Sarada! Calm down!
What can a captain do if they're panicking?
He's conscious.
I'll look after him!
I want the both of you to guard the area!
Those looked like flames on screen just now, didn't they?
What's going on?!
I can't get through to the Mizukage's Office.
Keep calling them until you do!
I want to know what's going on!
If you aren't assigned to anything,
I'd like you to take the medical team to the village!
– Yes, sir! – Yes, sir!
I guess that information about a terrorist attack was accurate.
Damn it!
Kagura, I'm heading back.
Wait! It's faster to go by Thunder Train.
Could you arrange a Thunder Train?
Yes, sir!
I'd like to request a Thunder Train to head to the village.
Hello? Hello?!
What's the matter?!
We suddenly lost the connection.
Sorry,
but it looks like you're going to have to travel there on your own.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's start fishing.
The Unleashed Villain
This is Block 7. Please respond!
It's no good.
Our signal is being jammed.
What?!
There's an intruder in Block 7!
We are currently engaged with them.
An intruder?!
Damn it! Just when we're shorthanded too.
Sorry, Boruto, but this is where we part ways.
Wait!
I'm coming with you!
Are you sure?
Sarada and Mitsuki can handle things.
Thank you.
Do you think this attack is connected with
the terror attack earlier?
That would be a reasonable assumption,
but we don't know what the enemy is after.
Why would they target a prison?
A water leak, huh?
There was an explosion earlier, right?
Hey, guard, what's going on?
There's no reason to hide anything. C'mon!
Hey!
What's going on?!
Quiet down, you guys!
Do you want to be sent to solitary?!
Something doesn't seem right.
I sense a storm coming.
This way.
This is...
It's the Water Prison Jutsu!
Stay back!
It will draw you in if you touch it.
Are you all right?
Who did you go up against?
The Funato...
There's no mistake.
I'll never forget those features.
I found him.
Well done.
Your sensory abilities are unmatched.
All that's left is for us to—!
Wait.
Let's let this guy handle things.
He should be fine for now.
Hey, what's this about the Funato?
It's probably the remaining members of the dissolved pirate clan
who were probably living in the shadows.
I'm sure they are trying to rescue Araumi.
So, that airship crash was meant to draw attention away from this!
Our staff is providing security for the ceremony,
so we're short-handed at the moment.
Though on land, this location is like an isolated island,
so we can't immediately call-in reinforcements.
Damn it! They totally got us.
But thankfully, you're here.
Will you help me out, Boruto?
Of course!
You'd think I'd abandon a friend in trouble?
I feel confident with you here!
He's totally conscious,
but please examine him just in case.
You can count on us.
Have you been able to contact the Young Lord?
I'll let you know when I do, so please don't worry.
We found unidentified bodies in the burning ship.
We believe they are connected to this incident in some way.
They may have allies in our midst.
Don't let anyone leave these grounds
until the investigation is over.
Yes, sir!
Lord Chojuro,
we can't contact anyone outside of the village from here.
Please return to the Mizukage's office.
Understood.
I'm counting on you to take care of the rest.
What's happening outside?
Calm down.
As long as the emergency power supply doesn't go out,
we're safe here.
What's the matter?
I heard something.
Did you hear that? I heard something!
I don't hear anything.
I'm positive I heard something just now.
Damn it, you're losing your nerve from fear.
Grandma warned me not to work at a prison.
Damn it!
Hey, where did you go?!
What?!
Who are you guys?!
We've come to get you, Father.
I'll get some water right away.
No, wait!
Hey, you. Did you know?
That the human body is 60 percent water.
How many years have passed?
It's been five years.
Let's go, Father.
Our clan is waiting for you back home... on the sea.
Don't move from that spot!
As warden, I will take you all into custody.
Oh?
What a young warden.
It seems you took very good care of my father.
I'm going in.
This ends here.
What is that?!
Rasengan!
Is that thing alive?!
Water Style: Clear Mirror Still Water!
A perfectly clear mirror made of water.
But water's true nature is volatile!
Water Style: Super Exploding Water Shockwave!
How long are you going to play with those weaklings?
Let's go!
Lord Araumi, we're glad you're safe.
We shall lead you safely back to our home on the sea.
Make it quick.
You've taken a liking to that Leaf brat's chakra, huh?
How dare they treat us like trash!
There was nothing we could do.
How are things going?
Don't worry.
Our brethren from all over the nation
should be signaling us shortly.
From today, this island is under the control of the Funato!
Defy us, you'll die!
Did you hear?
Every place from Oshima all the way to the eastern islands
have fallen into the hands of the Funato.
Damn those has-been pirates.
Are we going to keep letting them have their way?
That's the reason why we have this base on the front lines.
Hey! What is that?
What?
This is horrible!
Boruto!
You were safe!
Yeah, Kagura's with me!
Is Dr. Katasuke all right?
He has minor injuries,
but I'm making sure he gets a thorough checkup just in case.
I see.
This is not the time to let your guard down.
There may be enemies still lurking around here.
No.
This was most likely a diversion.
I can't believe the airship crash was a diversion.
While we were dealing with that,
VOW
members of the Funato attacked the prison
and escaped with Araumi off-island.
Even if we wanted to track them down,
all the ships in port have had their engines destroyed.
It looks like they've totally outwitted us.
If only we had realized their existence sooner.
We have learned something curious in relation to that.
The day before yesterday, the body of a regional governor
who drowned was discovered.
We found proof that this governor had been in contact with the Funato
and was trying to keep this incident hidden.
We believe this governor was responsible
for spreading rumors of a terrorist attack
to distract us.
We'll deal with that later.
It's too late now.
That aside, are you still unable to contact
the base on the front lines?
Yes, we suddenly lost contact with them.
That base is our key position in the eastern sea.
If it were to fall, we'll be at a disadvantage in future battles.
I know that!
Form an investigative team right away.
This is our top priority.
Boruto, you're back!
Mitsuki, did you find anything out?
It seems that the base on the front lines of the eastern sea
has fallen.
There are rumors that unidentified weapons were used.
It certainly looks like it has something to do with
this terrorist attack.
The prison was attacked,
and they escaped with Araumi Funato.
This is all my fault.
I heard the report.
We also latched onto the information
about a terrorist attack.
You're not the only one responsible.
Hold on a second!
Speaking of the eastern sea...
Isn't Team 5 on a mission near there?
Yeah,
but we're unable to contact any of the islands in that area.
Denki!
They're shinobi as well.
I'm sure they can look after themselves.
It's not just Team 5.
Researchers from the Hidden Leaf are also on that island.
We have no idea what their situation is right now.
We need to go there right away.
But the entire Land of Water
has just been placed under a state of emergency.
Even if we wanted to go help them,
as outsiders, we won't be able to move freely.
Are you saying we should abandon them?!
Kagura!
Sorry, I overheard you.
I have an idea.
VOW
Indeed, as my special advisor,
you are allowed great authority during emergencies.
You believe this is one of those situations, correct?
No one is foolish enough to abandon a friend in trouble.
If it were possible, I would like to help as well.
But right now,
our top priority is to investigate and defend the islands
that we've lost contact with.
I don't have the manpower to spare.
We won't cause any problems.
I'm sure you already know;
our command of the eastern naval waters
has fallen to the hands of the enemy.
Once you go in,
you won't be able to call in reinforcements or contact anyone.
It's an extremely dangerous area.
That's all the more reason why we need to go assist them.
VOW
Understood.
Take this with you.
You're giving me the Hiramekarei?
I'm sure you'll make better use of it than me.
By the way, I hope you're not going in there
without taking any subordinates.
About that...
I have some people in mind.
Get on out!
This is an order from Lord Kagura!
Are you sure we'll be okay in this boat?
I can vouch for its speed!
I've escaped from pirates countless times.
I'm not getting on that rickety boat!
You're nothing but an ignorant brat!
Don't judge my immaculate craft!
It's nothing like that.
It's just a rickety boat.
Well, it doesn't look like something
that would be carrying shinobi.
I think it could work.
Also, we couldn't find any other ships
that looked like they could move.
That aside, what about the money?!
I'm going to need compensation!
The Leaf will totally pay you!
That aside, Kagura's late.
He said he would be coming with some new subordinates.
It looks like he's here.
– What? – What?
– What?! – What?!
What?!
It's been a while, hasn't it, young lady of the Uchiha?
Kagura, are they the subordinates you were talking about?
They're definitely skilled.
They also have access to secret information
we're not privy to.
Even so, it's too dangerous!
It would be better if we handled this ourselves!
There's no time for debate.
You were allowed permission to move freely
on the condition that you become a part of my team.
But I can't believe you would give them back their ninja blades!
A stone was sticking out.
It would be dangerous if someone tripped on it.
Do you have any complaints?
All I have are complaints!
If you don't get on quick, I'm gonna charge you extra!
It looks like we just have to accept this.
I said I wasn't getting on!
This is a part of your mission!
I'm getting off of this boat!
I'll buy you taiyaki!
Let me off!
I'll tell Lord Seventh!
Don't say I didn't warn you, okay?
I'm glad you understand, Boruto.
There's no telling when we'll encounter
the Funato on these waters.
Let's proceed carefully.
If they find us, we can just kill 'em, right?
That's right!
With my Nuibari,
I'll pierce them through and finish them!
It doesn't seem like you've reformed at all
from your time in prison.
