Synopsis
With Naruto Uzumaki as the Seventh Hokage, Konohagakure is planning to host the Chūnin Exams to train new shinobi from all of the five allied villages. Among the entrants are Team Konohamaru: Sasuke Uchiha's daughter, Sarada Uchiha, who adores Naruto, Mitsuki, an exceptionally talented yet mysterious shinobi, and Boruto Uzumaki, Naruto's son who shows great potential, but despises and resented his father for not having the time to spend with his family because of work, leaving him alone.

Meanwhile, Sasuke, who's been on a mission in another dimension, appears before Naruto to warn of a strange impending danger he has sensed. Naruto and Sasuke talk about shinobi of their mutual childhood's era. As they do, Boruto hears from Sarada that Sasuke is Naruto's "one and only rival." Wanting to discover his father's weak spot and surpass him, Boruto meets Sasuke and begs him to train him and take him on as an apprentice. Sasuke, who realises his friend's situation, promises to be Boruto's teacher "on one condition." Boruto decides to apply for the Chūnin Selection Exams alongside Sarada and Mitsuki to show his real abilities to Naruto.

Boruto and the others persevere through the first examination, a match of intelligence, and the second examination, a match of teamwork. The third examination is one-on-one fighting in a coliseum, watched over by the Five Kage. In the end, Boruto is clashing against Shikadai Nara, the son of Shikamaru Nara.

At that time, a huge explosion appears that twists and warps space, revealing an ominous duo shrouded with an evil aura, Momoshiki and Kinshiki whom both appear during the Exams and attempt to assassinate Naruto with the Rinnegan. Boruto is petrified and unable to do a thing while Sasuke guards him. As Naruto steps in front to shield them, he smiles faintly and disappears in front of Boruto from being hit by the Momoshiki's jutsu.

An inconceivable foe lies ahead as Sasuke, the Kages and Boruto, with a determination of steel, charge into the other dimension!
