Plot
Two years after the events of the Fourth Shinobi World War, the moon begins to descend towards the Earth. With the moon now a meteor that would destroy everything on impact, Naruto must deal with this new threat. Meanwhile, Toneri Ōtsutsuki, a descendent of Hamura Ōtsutsuki determined to carry on his ancestor's legacy, appears and kidnaps Hanabi Hyūga after failing to seize Hinata, who tries and fails to give Naruto a personal gift of love — a red scarf she knitted herself in remembrance of one Naruto used to wear back in the Academy — at the Konohagakure Winter Festival. Naruto, Hinata, Sakura, Sai, and Shikamaru are deployed to go and rescue Hanabi. Shikamaru is also given a special clock held only by the five Kages, which apparently is counting down to doomsday. Toneri returns and Hinata joins him, much to Naruto's shock and confusion. Thus, Naruto has to save both of them, unaware he is going to finally return Hinata's feelings. Hinata is knocked unconscious and the scarf she made is damaged. At some point, Toneri steals Hanabi's Byakugan and implants them in his own empty eye sockets, awakening the Tenseigan sealed by Hamura's descendants over the last millennium. He also succeeds in capturing Hinata, proposing her to marry him; she "accepts" his offer in order to save Hanabi, which causes Naruto to fall into a deep depression after being thoroughly beaten by Toneri. After a three day recovery process Naruto wakes up and sees Sakura severely weakened due to saving his life. Sakura talks with Naruto and helps him realise that Hinata truly loves him. With new-found strength, Naruto leads the charge into Toneri's moon base. Meanwhile, in Toneri's palace, Toneri asks that Hinata craft a red scarf for him, similar to the one she made for Naruto. Hinata, however, uses this as a chance to attempt to destroy the Tenseigan. Toneri catches her, encases her in a huge bird cage, and destroys the scarf she knitted for him. Naruto's team finally catches up and a massive attack on Toneri's palace begins. The team splits and Sai and Shikamaru rescue Hanabi, whose eyes are bandaged. Toneri, however, has managed to unlock the Tenseigan sealed by his clan over the last thousand years, unlocking the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, which gives him enough power to slice the moon in half. Naruto similarly enters Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, and a huge duel ensues. Near the end, Naruto grasps the last remaining shred of the scarf Hinata had originally made for him and seemingly redirects and channels his chakra shroud into the fist holding the scrap and delivers a devastating punch, which is enough to depower Toneri and pin him against a wall. Hinata uses this chance to retrieve Hanabi's Byakugan. Eventually, Naruto manages to defeat Toneri, stop the moon from falling, and save Hinata. Naruto then confesses his love for Hinata and the two kiss. The movie ends with a series of flash-forwards of Naruto and Hinata's wedding and their children, Boruto and Himawari.
