A memorial service is being held in remembrance of the many fallen from the Fourth Great Ninja War. Shikamaru and Ino reminisce about their fathers who died carrying out their duties until the very end in the hopes of a better future. Meanwhile, Ao, an aide to the Fifth Mizukage Mei, pays a visit to the Village Hidden in Leaves.

Those with a Karma gradually lose control of their minds and bodies as they undergo Otsutsukification. Naruto convenes a Five Kage Summit to discuss what they should do about Boruto’s condition, as well as Cord, one of the leaders of Kara.

Ikada returns home after learning that his sister has been severely injured in battle. He spends the next few days looking after her and is visited by Funamushi’s son Kobuna. Kobuna asks Ikada if he will join the fight. Ikada tells him that he is not suited for battle. Despite his feelings, his father Araumi and the other members of the Funato Clan are annoyed that he isn’t joining the fight.

While Boruto and the others are forced to participate in Ouga’s experiments, Sarada and her team investigate Boruto’s disappearance and discover the existence of a suspicious individual.

Meanwhile, Boruto is shocked to discover the identity of someone who may be working for Ouga. Just then, a test subject is found dead—killed for reasons that have nothing to do with the experiment.
