05x246 - A Heavy Loss

[bunniefuu]

Who said I was going to do that?

What?!

I did this so you could taste the same despair I felt

when you robbed me of Lady Seiren right before my eyes!

This time, you're going to get robbed!

Now you'll know!

Bo...ruto!

A Heavy Loss

Funamushi!

Damn it!

How dare you do that to Kagura!

How could you?!

Water Style: Imminent Danger!

I'm gonna k*ll you all!

Boruto?!

He's fast!

Rasengan!

Hey!

Kagura!

Kagura!

Kagura! Hang in there!

Lord Funamushi!

Let's regroup and reorganize for now!

Don't be ridiculous!

I need to avenge Lady Seiren...

Until I do that—

Withdraw!

– Yes, sir! – Yes, sir!

Hang in there!

Kagura!

Will Kagura be okay?

I've finished closing up the wound.

Why won't the bleeding stop?!

Isn't there anything else we can do?!

We're trying right now!

Our location makes it difficult to provide any more medical treatment!

Kagura...

Kagura, you're going to be okay.

Stay with us!

Everyone...

It's fine...

I can't...

hold on...

anymore.

What are you saying?!

That's right, Kagura!

I'm probably...

not going to make it.

Don't give up!

More importantly...

I have a request.

The village...

Please protect the village!

Yeah, we got it.

Stop talking!

I'm relieved because I know you'll keep them safe.

Buntan...

I'm glad you stuck with me this far.

I'm grateful.

What are you saying?!

We're just getting started, aren't we?!

Hebiichigo...

When you get back, take this...

PETITION

I told them to release...

the three of you.

Those two I can understand...

But I have no right to accept this.

I tried to k*ll you and escape, remember?

But...

you didn't.

And...

you came back, didn't you?

But that's—!

Kyoho...

Take care of Buntan and Hebiichigo.

Make sure...

you get home safely...

together.

Boruto...

I'm counting on you to take care of the rest.

Kagura?

Kagura!

Kagura!

Damn it!

They're not making any moves.

Which means that it's true...

Yes. They're stalling for time.

According to the intel we received from Kagura,

a separate Funato unit is traveling by land.

There's no mistake that their goal was to draw us here.

It seems they haven't realized that we know already.

Do you believe the enemy intends on staying like this?

You plan on staying put like this?

Don't worry.

The more time we buy ourselves, the better our advantage will be.

If we keep our enemy focused on us,

Seiren will have an easier time moving over land.

When we get word that we've taken control of the land,

we'll go in all at once and defeat them.

We have to be patient until then.

If you say so, Big Brother.

You don't agree with this?

I don't.

If we jump onto that ship and take Chojuro's head,

we can end this now, right?

If we do that,

the best we can expect is for us to end up taking each other out...

Use your head.

Use my head?

Complicated things are difficult for me.

I'm not intelligent like you, Big Brother.

That's why...

I want Father to recognize me for my strength!

Tenma...

I understand how you feel...

but don't be hasty.

I... don't know my parents.

I was abandoned and I lived like a stray dog.

You again?!

Why you—!

Hey, wait!

No one bothered to help me.

I was surprised by his strength.

If I also became strong...

then—!

Take me with you!

I want to be strong like you!

Oh?

What's your name?

Tenma!

I like you.

Come with me, Tenma.

From today on, you're gonna be my son.

Learn everything you can about the sea at my side.

Isari, look after this kid!

Yes!

To become stronger than anyone...

Well done, Isari.

You are truly strong.

I want Father to acknowledge me!

I want Father to praise me!

What are you doing?!

Isari, get it together!

I'm so sorry!

Are you listening, Tenma?

I...

just...

want Father to...

A message, huh?

Yeah...

What does it say?

It's from Funamushi's Unit.

Seiren's been injured.

Seiren has?

How?

Before the ambush, they went to get Ikada,

and it seems Kagura and some Leaf Shinobi got them.

What?! Then what about the plan?

Looks like we have to change things up.

In that case,

let's take Chojuro's head right now!

I'm sure that's what Father would want!

We can't!

Don't act recklessly.

I'm going to reformulate our plan.

Kagura...

You must be filled with regret...

Please...

Please...

try to rest in peace.

I'll never forgive the Funato!

I'm saying that we should

immediately go to their camp and avenge Kagura!

Boruto's right.

We've suffered a heavy loss, but the same goes for them as well.

If we att*ck them right away, we'll have a chance of winning.

Calm down for a minute!

I understand how you feel, but...

If you understand, then we need to go right now!

But in order to defeat Funamushi, we'll need to do some prep work.

Prep work?

You're talking about a plan... right?

Yeah.

Before we do that, isn't there something we need to decide?

Who's going to take Kagura's place?

We've made it this far because we followed Kagura's orders.

Or rather, he brought us this far.

Now that he's gone...

Whose orders should we follow from here on out?

You're saying we need a captain, right?

Yeah.

I think...

you should do it.

Yes, I agree.

Though I think you'll be a less reliable captain than Kagura.

I also think that's a good choice.

I have no objections, either.

Yeah.

Uh-huh.

Then it is decided.

Understood.

What do we do now?

They already know that this is our base

and Funamushi still hasn't given up on getting his revenge.

He'll probably att*ck this location again.

We need to prioritize defending the village

and prepare to take down the enemy.

I'm Kagura Karatachi.

Thanks for coming!

Trusting someone even if they're trying to hurt you...

is amazing, isn't it?

You're the one who taught me that, Boruto.

Me?

I did?

That's right.

Damn it!

What do you want?

Don't be like that.

Are you all right?

What do you mean?

You told us before...

Your Otsutsuki powers are being suppressed by Amado's medicine.

Yeah.

Then why did your Karma appear again?

That was...

You don't think the drug stopped working

and Momoshiki's trying to control you again—?

That's not possible!

Are you able to use the Karma without any risks now?

Huh? What does that mean?

The drug was definitely effective.

As proof,

I was conscious of my actions earlier, right?

Explain what's going on!

As you know,

the Karma is already % extracted in my body.

But thanks to Amado's drug, the extraction process stopped.

Yeah...

So, Momoshiki can't take control of me like before.

But once my body's undergone Otsutsukification,

there's no going back.

I'm still able to freely use the power I gained from the Karma.

Are you really sure that's safe?

I'll be fine.

Honestly, I have no intention of leaning on the Otsutsuki.

If that's the case, that's good...

Lord Isari!

It's Lord Tenma!

I'll settle this all at once.

Lord Tenma's boat is gone!

Tenma, you're being too hasty!

Listen up! Our target is Chojuro.

Yes, sir!

Yes, sir!

Just you wait, Father.

This time, I'm going to...

Summoning: Fiddler Crab!

TIDE

I knew you'd take advantage of the mist and come here...

I've got Chojuro.

You guys k*ll everyone else!

Yes, sir!

Yes, sir!

Water Style: Water Scales!

Single Claw Bisection!

Your head is mine!

Water Style: Water Fang b*mb!

What are the Funato's motives?

If you tell me, I'll let you live.

Obviously, we plan on crushing the Hidden Mist!

You should be begging for your life!

How unfortunate.

Father...

I just wanted you...

to praise me.

Tenma!

We're withdrawing for the time being.

Chojuro...

You're not going to get away with this!

Don't you think we should be the ones making a move?

There's no need to discuss it.

Let's go take down that bastard Funamushi!

I feel the same way! I want to take him down too.

But Kagura wanted to protect this village.

So...

Next time on Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:

"For Kagura"

FOR KAGURA

I'm going to take the best possible actions to protect this village!
