03x107 - The Steam Ninja Scrolls: The Dog and Cat w*r!

[bunniefuu]

What's wrong?

Oh, it's nothing!

Actually

I totally misunderstood and thought this was a two-day mission,

so I didn't bring enough clothes

And I was thinking how I'd really like to take a bath now

You'd better call on your mental strength to get over that.

That's something you just have to deal with

on any long mission—

The problem with you is that you think mental strength is everything.

Listen up, Mirai! Stamina is what counts in the end!

Just take a dip in one of the rivers over there like I used to—

I can't do that!

Times have changed, you know!

I hate this hair that I got from my mom.

Oh yeah, your hair is unruly just like Kurenai's!

Basically, I just take after my mom the most.

Even my best jutsu are the genjutsu that I inherited from her.

Hmm

Well

We can talk about that once we get into town.

Oh!

We're finally here!

The hot springs district at the border.

I bet you'll get to take a bath there!

Then let's hurry!

Huh?

My, myso self-serving!

Okay, let's go to the hot springs first!

The Steam Ninja Scrolls: The Dog and Cat w*r!

The Steam Ninja Scrolls: The Dog and Cat w*r! Welcome all.

How about some Dog Hot Spring bean-jam buns?!

Dogs are so passé!

How about some Cat Hot Spring cookies?

That's weird. I heard this was supposed to be a quiet town.

I wonder if we'll be able to secure a room?

THE ONCE-A-YEAR TIME FOR FUN! FESTIVAL HAVE FUN JOSTLING EACH OTHER!

THE ONCE-A-YEAR TIME FOR FUN! FESTIVAL HAVE FUN JOSTLING EACH OTHER! Looks like there's a festival going on.

A festival?

Everyone's wearing either a cat or dog mask.

I wonder what kind of a festival this is?

The name of the festival isn't on there.

Wouldn't you usually put that on the poster?

Oh, I get it!

This festival is the Dog and Cat Festival,

or the Cat and Dog Festival.

Why are there two names?

Look at the middle of the street.

Do you know what that is?

Is it something that has to do with the Festival?

It's a border.

What? In the middle of the town?

The Land of Fire and the Land of Steam

have a friendly relationship.

They have no problems with each other in their daily lives.

However, the day of the Festival is a different story.

DOG

This is the Dog Hot Springs.

Once upon a time, when this town was still a village

A dog appeared out of nowhere

and told the young villagers to start digging.

Lo and behold, they hit a hot spring!

And the village prospered.

Since then, the story of that dog being a messenger from the Dog God

has been passed down by the villagers,

and the hot springs was named the Dog Hot Springs.

And they lived happily ever after.

Why did you make yourself sound like an old man?

Just getting into it, I guess.

CAT And that's the "Cat Hot Springs."

CAT

Once upon a time

Wait, let me tell the story!

Long, long ago

A cat appeared

out of nowhere, and

Stop right there!

This is the exact same story, right?

Yeah, how did you know?

I just had a feeling.

Yes, but there's more to that story.

According to one account,

a third god that's neither a dog nor cat appeared at the end.

A third god?

Yes, the God of Destruction cloaked in flames.

The God of Destruction?

Its name was

Its name was?

Lord Nenu!

Huh?

You know, "Ne" from Neko (Cat) and "Nu" from Inu (Dog)

Never mind.

It's a silly name, it's probably not true.

Anyway, the residents either believe in the Dog God or the Cat God

and that conflict is the basis of this festival.

That's why the festival has two names

that couldn't be listed on the poster.

I see how it is

But lately, I hear dog and cat lovers from other lands

are coming down for the festival too.

See?

I guess there are dog and cat lovers everywhere, huh?

This festival is a fighting festival.

FESTIVAL Burly men draped in loincloths

Raising a w*r cry as they crash shrines of dogs and cats

into each other.

If you're from the Land of Fire,

you probably would have heard of it.

Fate must have brought us here, on the day of the festival.

What do you think?

Let's stay and watch the shrine fight from some box seats!

You've loved this sort of thing ever since you were little, huh?

P-Please wait!

I cannot allow this as your bodyguard!

Hey! What if something happens here?!

Dogs reign supreme!

Keep a dog for three days and they'll never forget your kindness.

Even after three years, a cat will forget your kindness.

But that's what's great about 'em!

A cat doesn't suck up to people.

It's the ultimate creature that stands at the top of the world.

Oh, come on! I almost lost you two!

Can you please not wander away from your bodyguard?

Who cares about you cat lovers?!

Yeah, that's right! You're way outta line!

Heaven did not create anything better than dogs!

Yeah, you tell 'em!

Wow, someone's really looking for a fight!

Peace wouldn't exist in Ninja World without dogs!

Mr. Kiba?!

Huh? Hey, if it isn't Mirai!

Kiba Inuzuka's an outstanding investigator

in the Leaf Police Force and a remarkable Ninja Hound user.

He was also one of Mom's students...

So, what are you doing here?

Oh, welluh

I got here and hit it off real nice with the dog lovers.

They're flattering him and it's gone to his head.

It's so stupid.

Miss Tamaki!

She comes from a clan of Cat Users

and is Kiba's girlfriend

Or, so I thought

Speak for yourself.

You've become the leader of the cat lovers!

Wait, so what's going on here?

Listen to me, Kakashi Sensei!

See the Dog Hot Springs and the Cat Hot Springs over there?

We decided to talk it over to see which one to go in first, but

Hey! The majority already ruled in favor of the Cat Hot Springs.

But you just have to keep rehashing it!

You just can't let it go, can you?

Hey! Of course, you're gonna get the majority

if you include all of your cats!

You got a problem?

I said, I'd be fine going to the Cat Hot Springs, didn't I?

But I hate that you agreed even though you don't want to!

Huh? But that's not what I‘m doing!

Yes, you are! I am not!

Don't tell me, you're here on a date and

you're fighting over such a trivial thing?

Whatever! If that's how you're gonna act,

then I'm going all in as the leader of the cat lovers!

Okay, bring it on. You better be ready!

CAT DOG

Oh dear.

Not even a dog wants to be a part of a couple's fight.

Yeah, neither does a cat.

Hey, shouldn't we do something?

This is turning into more than just a couple's spat!

Well, it is a private matter between those two

You don't always have to see eye to eye when you're in love.

That, too, is a part of youth.

CLOSED TODAY

Struck out again.

Don't you think the friction between

the cat lovers and the dog lovers is getting worse?

I think it's because those two became the leaders.

Hmm, if this continues,

we won't even be able to find an inn.

And I won't be able to take a bath!

No, I mean, we have to get those two to make up

or it will affect my bodyguard duties.

Right?

Well, that's true to some extent.

In that case, resolving the conflict between

the cat and dog lovers is also a part of the mission, right?

I guess so.

That's absolutely right!

It's a mission that

young shinobi must take on with all their might!

A mission!

I understand.

For the sake of a bath, let me take on that mission!

Hey

There she goes.

Make up with him?

Yes! I'm sure you don't want to spend

your long-awaited date like this.

He never gets a day off from the Police Force,

so I made him come out with me today.

But he keeps carrying on like that!

Well, he does do things in his own special way.

Maybe I was wrong.

I thought he understood me a little better.

A date, huh?

Oh well. I was really excited about it, too.

But with the way things turned out

Oh!

I'm sure Kiba doesn't want to fight with you either.

DOG Who would've thought that the legendary Ninja Hound user,

DOG Kiba Inuzuka, would grace us with his presence?

He took part in the Great Ninja World w*r

and is now a sharp investigator.

He's known as the man closest to being a Hokage

among Ninja Hound users.

Oh, c'mon...that's all true.

I heard that you know

every single walking trail in the country.

Your love of dogs led you

to create and sell your own dog food.

I hear you even taste-test it yourself!

Amazing!

That's right!

I'm Kiba!

We'll win!

As long as Kiba's with us, we'll beat the cat lovers!

W-What are you doing?!

Well

I don't know but they just really love me.

Shouldn't you make up with Miss Tamaki?

I-It's her fault!

Yeah, but still,

it's a lot cooler if you're the one to apologize first.

Dogs never go back on their decisions!

Mirai, as Kurenai Sensei's daughter, how helping us?

The honor of the Ninja Hound is at stake.

I don't know what to say

What should I do? If this continues

Oh, I know! This might work.

Is this from Kiba?

Yes. He wants to make up with you and wrote you a letter.

Hmm

He did this?

Actually, I wrote it!

I hate to trick her, but if they make up,

then the end justifies the means.

And their relationship will be mended!

Hey

What the hell is this?

Huh?

Look at this part

"As a peace-offering,

come with your cats to the hot springs inn."

"And let's sit around the heated table

and eat tangerines together."

Huh? What's wrong with that?

Cats hate tangerines and citrusy scents!

He knows that!

This letter may seem like a peace-offering,

but it's really just to harass me!

What? Really?!

Oh no! Cats and tangerines

just go together with heated tables, so!

Two can play at that game. I'm going all out now.

I'll show him how vindictive cats are!

Everyone!

Get ready for an all-out confrontation!

Let's show those dogs that they're useless without their pack,

and also what happens when cats get serious!

Big Sister! I pledge my loyalty to you, forever!

Oh no!

Outta the way, move aside, Lord Kiba's coming through!

Down with the cat lovers! Dogs are the best!

Aww yeah! We'll show you how great dogs are.

Let's go.

Let's go! We'll show you the power of cats!

You're outta your league, dog lovers!

Tamaki?!

I see dogs are more important than me, Kiba.

N-No, that's not true.

Yes, dogs are important, but so are you

I guess you and I just don't get along, after all

No, that's not!

I

That woman rejected Mr. Kiba's affections!

We'll inflict divine punishment on you!

Attack!

W-Wait, you guys!

I see. So that's how it's gonna be!

Everyone, engage the enemy!

Cats! Dogs!

What do we do?

We have to talk them out of this!

Hmm, with tempers flaring like that,

I doubt they'll want to talk.

B-But!

Maybe they'll just have to fight until everything is destroyed.

Destroyed?

The God of Destruction cloaked in flames.

Flames!

Do you have a lighter on you, Mr. Guy?

A lighter?

Yeah, but what for?

I'll return it!

H-Hey!

Fire Style: Flint Yagura!

Fire?!

What the hell is this monster?

W-What is going on?

Humans engaging in futile battles

My name is Nenu, the flaming God of Destruction!

Nenu's a superstition,

but maybe these people are devout enough

that they'll believe

Actually it's more like please believe it!

You're!

The third god that lies dormant in this land.

Lord Nenu! Lord Nenu!

Seriously? That quick?!

Precisely!

I am indeed Nenu.

The god that shall put an end to the conflict

between dogs and cats.

Just as a child is born from two parents,

this town was born under the divine protection

of the Dog God and Cat God.

However, if you choose not to end the fighting

Then my flames will bring about catastrophic destruction.

Fighting will only bring about destruction and regret

Is that what you all want?

Good, it looks like it's working!

What?!

You monster! You think you can ruin the festival?

I won't let you do that.

No way!

Please stop, Mr. Guy!

Get hit and disintegrate!

Dynamic entry!

Hey, look!

The wall's come down!

The wall that separated us came down!

That indeed is the messenger of destruction

sent by Lord Nenu.

Lord Nenu created harmony by destruction!

It's a sign from god telling us to become one and get along!

I don't know why but I'm feeling great.

I-I'm sorry.

I think I put Mirai through a lot

I'm sorry I forced you to take a day off

and dragged you around.

Why don't we take a soak?

Sure, but separately, okay?

What?

Silly!

I'm talking about the men's bath and the women's bath!

BATHS

BATHS

I finally got to take a bath!

You did good. Great job on your mission.

Oh, no! It's because you gave me a hint.

I didn't do anything.

And what I did on a whim just happened to work out.

Oh, c'mon!

It worked out because you have a good head on your shoulders.

Just like your dad.

Like Dad?

Yeah. The lighter was Asuma's trademark.

Oh

Even if you don't remember,

Asuma lives on inside of us.

Dad does?

Your dad's Fire Style and your mom's genjutsu

In the spur of the moment,

you merged those two and used it.

It shows that it's not just Kurenai,

but both Asuma and she, are deeply rooted in you.

I was so caught up in it, but I took a chance

Some things you'll never know unless you take a chance.

Guy's hot-blooded logic comes in handy sometimes.

All right, I'm going to go take another soak.

I haven't tried the salt boiler hot springs yet.

Thank you so much!

My dad, huh?

I want to know more about him!

Miss Tenten, thank you so much for bringing my luggage!

Seems like things are going well with the sensei.

I'm relieved!

I don't know if I'm on the same wavelength as them, though.

Other than that, I'm managing!

I-It's terrible!

Mr. Guy! What happened?!

Next time on Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:

"The Steam Ninja Scrolls: The Haunted Inn!"

There was a ghost!
