The Heart Stone
Damn it I can't be relaxing like this.
How long do we have to stay here?
Like I said
In order to get out of here,
you must find the "Heart Stone" that is yours, and yours alone.
But that is only possible
for those who have the will to train, right?
All you have is the desire to leave this place.
If you realize, or grasp something while you're here,
you'll obtain the Heart Stone.
Who thought up a stupid rule like that?
It seems you have a bad habit of
only looking at things on the surface.
Well, that can't be helped.
You didn't come here with the intent to train.
It's fine. Just go to sleep, Old Man.
Damn it!
I really stumbled into an inconvenient location.
Who's there?!
That's my line!
This is sacred Hidden Stone land.
Trespassers are not welcome, Boruto Uzumaki!
How do you know my name?
Quit pretending like you don't know!
Have you forgotten the Genbu Shinobi Trio of the Hidden Stone,
who left a lasting impression at the Chunin Exams?!
Oh yeah
Come to think of it, there were some guys like that
who faded away in the first round.
What did you say?!
I'll make you take those words back now!
Huh?
Get ready!
The Ultimate Genbu Secret Technique!
Ninja Art, Genbu Winter Wind Emperor Formation!
Number , Release!
Hey, are you okay?
You set a trap in advance with these rocks, didn't you?
Very smart, Boruto!
Your nose is bleeding.
Hey, Boruto.
For firewood—
L-Lord Third!
It's such an honor
to be able to see you here, of all places.
Hey, you're just talking to Old Man Ohnoki.
How dare you speak to the legend of the Hidden Stone
in such an insolent manner!
Aren't you—?
I am Sekki, a member of the Genbu Shinobi Trio!
That's right, that's right!
What are you doing here?
Thank you for asking!
I have been training here all alone,
searching for the Heart Stone!
I see, I see.
And is your search going well?
Oh yes, of course!
So in the end, you spent three days and three nights without food or
water and didn't find it?
What happened to all of your food?
I brought plenty with me, but
I ate it all on the first day.
That's not good!
So, Lord Third, what are you doing here with someone like Boruto?
I'll tell you.
This old man you respect so much, got my friends
Out of danger?
He saved your friends, right?!
No, that's not it!
Leave it to the legend of the Hidden Stone!
That's why I admire him!
Boruto
Earlier, why didn't you—?
It's no use telling him the truth.
Besides, look
I never thought that looking for the Heart Stone would be so hard
He's not gonna find it, any way you look at it.
Rest assured, Sekki.
Boruto will help you find your Heart Stone.
Huh, what's up with that?!
Will he be any use?
Shut up!
If Sekki finds his Heart Stone, we may be able to exit with him.
Either you help him, or we die here.
Seriously?
It seems her flesh is deteriorating faster than anticipated.
Doctor said that if he's able to clone my heart,
the problem might be solved.
Is the analysis going smoothly?
A strong Curse Mark has been placed on my heart, so it's taking time.
But it should be over in one or two more examinations.
Mitsuki, you coming here has been our salvation!
We all owe you our lives.
A problem?
Extremely high technology was used in constructing Mitsuki's heart.
Furthermore, a troublesome Curse Mark is in the way.
Can you replicate it or not?! Just tell me!
It's possible.
But it requires a certain part.
What is it?
A human heart.
One for each for you including Sekiei and the rest
Five all together, huh?
But Master most likely won't authorize
the sacrifice of human lives.
We were created in the first place, to protect weak humans.
But that means eventually, Lord Ku, you and the others' lives will
Are you saying that unless we survive,
we can't protect humans?
But taking anyone from the Hidden Stone would be too conspicuous.
What else can we do?
Earth Style: Mountain Jutsu!
I have to get to the Hidden Leaf Village
I need to inform Naruto!
You're—!
Hmm
This isn't it.
Does this thing really exist?
I just can't believe such a special stone is around here, somewhere!
It's not about its appearance, Boruto.
The hardship you endure and the effort you put into finding
the Heart Stone are what gives it its value.
You're one to talk!
Don't get so riled up.
Hey, go easy on the water!
I know, but they say thirst makes you lose your concentration.
Quit making excuses for everything!
Man, the future looks so bleak.
Nope
This one's not it, either.
Hey, how about this one?
It's sparkly and sorta looks special.
That's totally not it!
Hey!
Didn't I say it wasn't about the appearance?!
What's with your stuck-up attitude?
You just have to pick one, right?
So, if it's only the shape that counts
My late granny used to say that
you'll know when it's the real one,
when you hold it in your hand.
I'm gonna find my Heart Stone,
and I'm gonna become the Tsuchikage for sure!
You wanna become the Tsuchikage?
Aren't you aiming a little too high?
Don't underestimate me, Boruto!
Don't get too cocky,
or my ultimate technique will spew fiery flames at you!
Stop it.
Anyway, I was told you can't use jutsu or chakra here.
No worries!
My Ultimate Genbu Secret Technique doesn't require chakra!
Get ready!
Ninja Art, Genbu Winter Wind Emperor Formation!
Number Release!
Owww
You were lucky!
If dust didn't get in my eye just now, you'd be dead!
Like I said, quit making stupid excuses.
You narrowly escaped, Boruto!
Make sure you ice that.
I said I'm fine!
Ow!
My back!
Are you okay?
What happened?
I dozed off and found myself almost falling off of the boulder and
We can't leave you alone, Old Man!
Okay, so where does it hurt? Here?
Ow!
N-No, not there!
Then where is it?
Here?!
Y-You're k*lling me!
Not like that, Boruto.
You're only gonna make it worse!
You're very good!
My granny had a bad back too,
and I used to give her a back rub every night.
You mentioned that your granny's
Granny was always worried
that I still hadn't found my Heart Stone
Before she d*ed
I wish she could've seen me as a full-fledged shinobi.
My dear Sekki, don't be hasty.
You must believe in your will.
Yes!
Well, how do you feel, Lord Third?
Oh It's been ages since my back has felt so good!
It's as though I've grown feathers.
Take it easy, or you'll end up straining your back again.
It's heavily secured here.
What are they hiding there?
I gotta think of a way!
What do you think you're doing?
Rejoice
You have been chosen to help with our plans.
I don't recall ever agreeing to anything.
Damn it!
Accept your fate.
If you're a shinobi, you must be prepared to die for a mission—!
Continue.
I'll see what's going on.
Now, take a deep breath.
Then, you'll go to sleep.
This is
The Shadow Strangle Jutsu!
He stopped his breathing by choking himself!
Looks like I still inhaled a little
What's happening?
Seems like a malfunction
Search thoroughly again to find anything unusual!
Master Ku!
Bad news!
What happened?
Kirara's genjutsu has—!
Sir Kontsuchi! Sir Kontsuchi!
What happened?!
We heard a noise and rushed over
And he was unconscious.
All right.
If that goes as planned, it will be a piece of cake from here on out.
Who is it?
What do we do?
We can't afford a commotion in the village right now.
Hey, Boruto
Do you think there really is such a thing as a Heart Stone?
Don't be such a wimp!
Who do you think I'm doing all this for anyway?!
I know that, but
Oh well, I guess this stone will do.
Are you sure that stone is okay?
Would you be able to tell your granny in heaven,
that that's the one?
This isn't it!
Ow, damn it!
You don't search for it with your eyes.
Lord Third!
Inside everyone's heart is a stone that belongs only to them.
Yes
What's really important, is
What's really important, is the Will of Stone inside you.
Lord Tsuchikage?
I can tell the worth of someone's will just by looking at them.
Ohnoki
Hidden within the will you possess
is the power to change the entire world.
But, if you aren't careful
that precious will of yours may disappear.
Disappear?
Barriers
As you keep running into barriers, you may abandon your will,
make excuses or perhaps even replace it with hatred.
"Make excuses or perhaps even replace it with hatred?"
Listen well
This is the one thing you must sear into your hearts:
Making excuses
cannot be excused!
A pun?!
You dare call it a pun?!
Damn it!
Listening to your stupid pun made me thirstier!
Sekki, give me some water!
Hey! It's empty!
Sorry
Let's go refill this!
I was gonna save you some.
But, you know
If you keep glossing over things like that, you'll never make it.
But, you know
You plan on making excuses all your life?
W-When it's time to buckle down, I do!
Even me!
You mean that Ultimate Technique that never hits the target?
Shut up!
If my punches miss, it means
when it does strike, it's probably awesome!
Did you just seriously say that?
What ifbecause my technique has no effect even when it strikes
I'll never be able to believe ever again,
that I could have won if I did hit the target?!
Hey, you know
You don't understand, Boruto!
W-What?!
Are you mad?
Sekki!
Get out of here, Sekki!
Oww!
Granny!
Damn it!
Oh no!
I told you to get out of here!
I wanted to, but—!
Damn it!
If I could use my jutsu, we wouldn't be stuck here.
What do we do, Boruto?
If I can't infuse chakra, there's nothing I can do!
What is it?
Sekki, that Ultimate Technique of yours
You can do it without chakra, right?
Yeah, but it's useless. I've never once—!
Another excuse?
Let's do this!
Jump, Sekki!
Do it!
Making excuses, cannot be excused!
It's the first time my Genbu Winter Wind Emperor Formation hit!
This is the one!
Boruto, look! This is my Heart Stone!
See? This side looks like my late granny's profile!
Well, if you say so, I'm happy for you.
Well done, Sekki!
Lord Third!
Granny, I did it!
I found my Heart Stone!
The stone's glowing!
Huh?
This must be the exit, Lord Third!
Hey, Sekki! Wait!
Over here, Boruto!
Whoa. We really did get out
Why?
Did you doubt it?
Thank goodness!
Lord Third!
Huh? Boruto?
Lord Third!
He won't lose his way anymore, huh?
So
What do we do now, Old Man?
Master Ku.
Kontsuchi has regained consciousness.
Shinobi are gathering at the Tsuchikage's Office.
It's only a matter of time
before they figure out the situation with Kurotsuchi.
Wake those two up.
We will now take control of Hidden Stone Village.
Boruto, you're missing the point.
We don't want to hurt anyone.
We just want to create a world where everyone can live happily.
You expect me to believe you?
Boruto
Then bear with me a little longer
I want to show you something.
Where are you taking me, Old Man?
You'll soon find out. It's just a little farther.
You said earlier you want to create a world
where everyone can live happily.
What's that about, ya know?
The place we're going to,
is the ideal place to make you realize this.
