"The Power to See the Future" (未来を読むチカラ, Mirai o Yomu Chikara) is episode 134 of the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime.
Synopsis[]
Boruto and Naruto continue attacking Urashiki in vain. Sakura watches them from afar. Sasuke tries to buy them some time, and tells Boruto to run away with Naruto. Jiraiya summons a toad and flees, grabbing Naruto and Boruto. Sasuke grabs Urashiki, and jumps down a cliff into a river, still holding Urashiki. Naruto tends to Jiraiya's injury, while Boruto is tied to a tree, and wishes to go back and save Sasuke. Urashiki gets out of the river angry at Sasuke's interference, and grabbing his sword, decides to go after him. Sakura finds an unconscious Sasuke by the river and moves him. Jiraiya, Naruto, and Boruto discuss Urashiki's claim of being able to see the future. Boruto wants to go save Sasuke, but Jiraiya stresses they must figure out Urashiki's jutsu first. Boruto notices Jiraiya's stab wound and realises something. He wants to test out a theory. Urashiki finds Sakura and Sasuke's trail. Sakura tends to Sasuke, and when Urashiki arrives at their general vicinity, without having found them, tells her he'll spare her if she hands Sasuke over. Boruto and Naruto arrive. They attack with explosive tag kunai, and wired kunai to bind to a tree, but he just vanishes out of them. Urashiki counters Boruto's attack from a blindspot, and gets some of his blood on him. He attacks Jiraiya, who's hidden behind a tree. Jiraiya counters with a Fire Release. Urashiki flies above it. Jiraiya attacks with toad oil, Urashiki simply vanishing through the attacks. Jiraiya and Boruto notice the bloodstains on Urashiki drying as he does. Jiraiya creates an earth wall to allow them to escape. Urashiki pursues them. Boruto and Jiraiya discuss how the blood on Urashiki dried quicker than theirs. They consider the ways the blood could have dried faster, and Jiraiya concludes that Urashiki isn't seeing the future, but rather turning back time for himself, the extra time he experiences accounting for the quicker drying blood. Urashiki finds them with his Byakugan and attacks. He boasts how his jutsu allows him to experience the same moment many times and pick the best course of action. Jiraiya gets them all inside a toad's stomach, having deduced Urashiki can't turn back time more than a few seconds. Naruto and Boruto create shadow clones, many of which attack Urashiki, causing him to keep using his ability to avoid their attacks. Urashiki walks towards them, but suddenly coughs blood. Jiraiya reminds him they're in a toad’s stomach, in a highly acidic environment. While he kept turning back time, Urashiki exposed himself to the acid vapours for much longer, which took its toll on him. Jiraiya takes them out of the toad, and Boruto accelerates Naruto, who lands a Rasengan on Urashiki. Konohamaru, Udon, and Moegi watch from nearby. Sakura continues tending to Sasuke. Meanwhile, Urashiki stirs on the ground.
