Synopsis
With Naruto Uzumaki as the Seventh Hokage, Konohagakureplans to host the Chūnin Exams to train new shinobi from all of the five allied villages. Among the entrants are Team Konohamaru: Sasuke Uchiha's daughter, Sarada Uchiha, who adores Naruto; Mitsuki, an exceptionally talented yet mysterious shinobi; and Boruto Uzumaki, Naruto's son who shows great potential but despises and resents his father for not having the time to spend with his family because of his work.
Meanwhile, Sasuke, who has been on a mission in another dimension, appears before Naruto to warn of a strange impending danger he has sensed. Naruto and Sasuke talk about shinobi of their mutual childhood's era. As they do, Boruto hears from Sarada that Sasuke is Naruto's "one and only rival". Wanting to discover his father's weak spot and surpass him, Boruto meets Sasuke and begs him to train him and take him on as an apprentice. Sasuke, who realises his friend's situation, promises to be Boruto's teacher "on one condition". Boruto decides to apply for the Chūnin Selection Exams alongside Sarada and Mitsuki to show his real abilities to Naruto.
Boruto and the others persevere through the first examination, a match of intelligence; the second examination, a match of teamwork; and the third examination, showcasing one-on-one fighting in a coliseum watched over by the Five Kage. In the end, Boruto is seen clashing againstShikadai Nara, the son of Shikamaru Nara.
At that time, a huge explosion appears that twists and warps space, revealing an ominous duo shrouded with an evil aura, Momoshiki and Kinshiki, who both appear during the Exams to assassinate Naruto with the Rinnegan. Sasuke then guards a petrified Boruto. Stepping in front to shield them, Naruto smiles faintly as he disappears after being hit by Momoshiki's jutsu.
An inconceivable foe lies ahead as Sasuke, the Kage and Boruto, with a determination of steel, charge into the other dimension!
