Several years after the Fourth Shinobi World War, Naruto has finally become the Seventh Hokage, and a time of peace and prosperity has descended upon the Leaf Village.

As this battle ensues, Boruto comes to realize the struggles his father once experienced-and what it truly means to be a ninja.

In order to do so, he enlists the help of Naruto's childhood friend and rival, Sasuke Uchiha. Upon learning that his father will watch the aspiring ninjas who will participate in the upcoming Chunin exams, Boruto is driven to prove to him that he is worthy of his attention.
