Team 7 sets out on their first mission. Their client is a village who has been plagued by bandits, and their mission is to eradicate them. They meet Kiri, a young girl who has just been installed as the village head after her father's sudden death. The team soon realizes that this mission is far more dangerous and complicated than first expected.

Udon Ise the jonin captain of Team 5, issues a direct order from the Hokage to Iwabe, Denki and Metal, which states: "In order to attract more students to the Ninjutsu Department of the Academy, you will appear in a PR video documentary." During the Byakuya Gang incident, the three were under suspension, and could only watch as their genin classmates leapt into action. The trio decide to do their best in the documentary in order to prove their prowess, but Udon seems skeptical...

Konohamaru tries to rescue Remon by checking up on Kankitsu, but he is caught and forcibly taken back to the Leaf Village. Boruto becomes suspicious when he sees Kankitsu alone and acting as if nothing has happened. He decides to investigate the situation, only to be shocked by the sight that unfolds before him! Meanwhile, Konohamaru is disciplined by the Hokage after receiving a complaint from Remon's village.

While chasing down Urashiki, Boruto and Sasuke get hit with a strange Otsutsuki weapon. They find themselves in the Hidden Leaf, but years before Boruto was born. Although there's no sign of Urashiki, Sasuke thinks they should proceed carefully. Suddenly, a very young Naruto appears with Jiraiya and the two start questioning the "outsiders."

Boruto's grandfather Hiashi's birthday is approaching and there's going to be a small family celebration. Boruto is chosen to select a birthday present, but he doesn't know what will please his grandfather, so he visits the Hyuga household and sneakily gathers information.

Boruto has a dream about the day he defeated Momoshiki Otsutsuki. It ends up bothering him so much that he can't focus on his mission. He then meets Tento, the son of Ikkyu Madoka—the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire—who’s in the Hidden Leaf for a meeting with the Hokage.

Cho-Cho and Choji go to the sweet shop after their training session, only to be disappointed that they are unusually out of azuki bean sweets. After hearing thieves have been raiding the deliveries, Cho-Cho plans to team up with Anko Mitarashi, her friend in desserts and beloved Ninja Academy instructor, to protect the azuki beans that she loves, and capture the bandits!

Boruto and the others manage to escape Yuuga's barrier, but this time his younger brother Hiruga gets in their way. Like Yuuga, Hiruga will resort to any method to fulfill his mission and uses his jutsu to seal away Boruto and the others. As Boruto tries to break the jutsu, he’s baffled by their rabid fighting style and their willingness to risk their lives.

Konohamaru and his teammates report their findings that the Kara receives outside assistance from people called Outers, and that these Outers may have covertly infiltrated the Five Great Shinobi Nations. Though Naruto feels that, as Hokage, he is responsible for protecting the village, he is unable to decide on a course of action.

Team 7 learns that Ao is now an enemy that works for Kara. After Mugino's plan allows them to escape, they begin to strategize on how to handle the situation. Meanwhile, the members of Kara learn that there may be a traitor among them.

Kawaki goes into town with Naruto to get a new vase to replace the one that he broke. On the way to the Yamanaka Flower Shop, they are joined by Sarada. Unaccustomed to peaceful everyday life, he snaps at Sarada’s attempts to talk to him, and almost attacks a child for bumping into him.

Boruto, Kawaki and the others sense something has happened to Naruto. But before anyone can act, Shikamaru and his subordinates arrive and erect a barrier around the Uzumaki home to contain Kawaki, believing he can't be trusted.

Isshiki regains his true form and goes to the Leaf Village to recapture Kawaki. The Leaf shinobi prepare for his arrival. Boruto is willing to fight, but he becomes frightened at the possibility of losing control of his Karma again.

Boruto is visiting the prison when an airship explodes during the ceremony. Just as he is about to rush to the scene, the facility is attacked, so he stays to help Kagura fight off the assailants. Will they be able to stop the attempted prison break of the leader of a gang of pirates?

A coded message believed to have been left by Funamushi reveals that the Hidden Mist Village is in danger. Kagura tells Boruto and the others of his plan to stop the enemy at a village on the route there. Everyone hurries to the destination, and it turns out Kagura lived in this village when he was little and has many fond memories of it. When Boruto and the others arrive, they try to get people to help them as they rush to prepare their plan to protect the village and the Hidden Mist!

Sarada, Mitsuki, and Boruto decide to meet with the Mizukage. Chojuro is heading into battle against the pirates, so Boruto and his friends ask the shipbuilder Kajiki for help. Thanks to Kajiki, they manage to reach Chojuro, but when they try to reason with him to stop the battle… Meanwhile, Ikada sails the raging seas with the intent to destroy the Shinonome 1, the brand-new power plant developed by the Land of Water.
