Uzumaki Boruto

Uzumaki Boruto (うずまきボルト) is a shinobi from Konohagakure's Uzumaki clan, and a descendant of the Hyuga clan. He is also a member of Team Konohamaru. Boruto is the son of Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Hinata. He is also the older brother of Uzumaki Himawari. Including the nephew of Hyuga Hanabi and the late Hyuga Neji. And lastly he is the grandson of Uzumaki Kushina, Namikaze Minato and Hyuga Hiashi. Boruto acts like his father in some ways. But he admires and acts like his role model, Uchiha Sasuke. He wants to follow in Sasuke's footsteps to become a great shinobi, and to have a great relationship with Naruto.

Background
Boruto is the first child of Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Hinata. On one peaceful morning, during winter time in Konoha. He and his younger sister, Uzumaki Himawari, came running out to embrace their father while he was training outside. With Boruto excitedly asking him to play with them. Naruto suggested that they have a snowball fight, much to Boruto and Himawari's excitement. As their snowball fight commenced, Hinata decided to join in and Naruto warned his children that when their mother got serious, she was incredibly strong.

Years later, on the morning of Naruto's inauguration as the Seventh Hokage. Hinata asked her two children to wake their father up, and when Himawari was unable to do so. Boruto proceeded to yell and jump on their father, effectively waking him up. While getting ready to go out, Boruto and Himawari got into an argument about taking her stuffed panda toy to the ceremony. To which Boruto told his sister that he was embarrassed on having to carry the toy in the village. Including that he would to carry it if she gets tire of holding it. He then told her not to bring it, which resulted to the toy being ripped in half. Despite Boruto admitting that he goofed up this time, and apologized to her.

Himawari got extremely angry, and had awakened her Byakugan for the first time. She then began attacking him, while Boruto was unable to defend himself. Naruto quickly rushed in to see what all the commotion was about, and tried to calm Himawari down, however she refused to listen. When Naruto stood in front of Boruto to protect him, Himawari knocked her father out by hitting his chakra points in a single strike, making Naruto unconscious. While thinking of what an attack that knock out his father, could also do to him. Boruto flee throughout the house in fear by hiding in a closet, he vowing to himself to never make his little sister extremely angry ever again. But he was eventually found by his sister.

Personality
Boruto is quite similar to his father, both tending to be loud, energetic, and stubborn. When ever frustrated or excited, he ends his sentences with "Dattebasa" (だってばさ). Which is similar to Naruto's "dattebayo". Boruto has a high opinion of himself and his abilities and freely brags about them. Though, unlike Naruto when he was Boruto's age, Boruto's boasts are usually justified. This cockiness resulted in Boruto not valuing his teammates or teamwork in general early on, to the point where he believed he could do everything and anything on his own. Unlike his father, Boruto was shown to be quiet intelligent, and at times he tends to be highly coy about his feelings. Which was to the point where he pretends not to actually care until he later shows his softer side when no one is around. But especially to his younger sister, to the point where he warned his father to be at Himawari's birthday party or else he would never forgive him.

Despite their similarities, Naruto and Boruto are different in a number of ways: Naruto was an orphan, whereas Boruto's family is always there for him. Naruto was ostracized by kids his age, but Boruto has many friends. Naruto had to work hard for his abilities and recognition, whereas Boruto's talents come to him naturally and he receives praise without even trying. Because of all this, Boruto lacks an appreciation for things earned with effort, causing him to cheat at video games rather than play them as intended and use the Kote rather than train to master ninjutsu on his own. It's turns out that after Naruto had became Hokage, Boruto no longer referred to Naruto as "Dad" instead he started to refer to his father as "Shitty Dad", due to Naruto's Hokage duties having him spend less time with Boruto, Hinata and Himawari.

Boruto has a very close attachment to his parents, as he refers to them as "Mom" and "Dad". He does at least appreciate his mother and sister, becoming angry when either of them are hurt physically or emotionally. Which was proven true when it was shown that, Boruto and Hinata had an argument on the night that Naruto didn't show up for Himawari's birthday due to working longer than usual. Including when he became worried for his mother's well-being when he discovered that she was injured in an attempt to save Naruto.

But Boruto had a hostile relationship with his father overall ever since Naruto became Hokage. He loves his father and is overjoyed whenever they spend time together, but the responsibilities of the Hokage office prevent Naruto from being around all the time. Boruto feels neglected and comes to hate the role of Hokage for taking his father away. Boruto's methods of dealing with this are numerous. To make he do anything to gain Naruto's attention, often motivated solely by the prospect that his father will notice. He hates the Hokage title, believing it is only fitting for those with no loved ones. So Boruto strives to become strong enough to surpass his father, therefore by trying to surpass Naruto's legacy.

What he does not do is express how he feels to Naruto, pretending to be disinterest whenever Naruto tries to connect with him. Eventually, when Boruto is finally exposed to the complications of his father's life and witnesses how hard work can make a respectable shinobi, he forgives his father's busy schedule and stops trying to take the easy options in life. This was proven true, when Naruto was capture during Momoshiki and Kinshiki's attack. Boruto decided to go save his father while also wanting to learn about his father's past instead of his weakness. In which it had led him to wear his father's old jacket, and on the fact that the attack had made Boruto extremely worry for his father's wellbeing and safety. After his father was rescue, Boruto finally stop referring to his father as "Shitty Dad" and started to refer to him as "Dad" again. While being happy that his relationship with Naruto is no longer strained, and that he is happy with things remaining the same for his family as long as he can hear more stories about his father's childhood past. Including that Naruto is now home more often, and Boruto is supportive of his grueling work schedule. Along with both of them encourage one another to do their best, and finally bumping fists with each other. Follow by after becoming a young hero like his father, Boruto was shown doing the same interviews that his father did. Including that Boruto no longer hates the Hokage title.

Boruto has known Uchiha Sarada since they were young, though they lack the same sort of relationship that Naruto had with Sarada's father, Uchiha Sasuke, when they were younger. Instead of constantly competing with each other like their fathers did, Boruto and Sarada are civil and respectful. While Sarada has always been sympathetic of Boruto's desire to be closer with Naruto, Boruto has not always been considerate of her own desires to be Hokage, for a time only helping her when it suits his own needs. After reconnecting with his father, Boruto has a change of heart, deciding to do whatever he can to help Sarada become Hokage, a dynamic just like the one Naruto and Sasuke have in adulthood. Boruto is also on good terms with Sasuke himself, admiring him for being his father's only equal; he calls Sasuke "uncle" despite the fact that they never met until after he becomes a genin. It was through Sasuke's tutelage and his admiration for him, that Boruto made it his goal to become a shinobi like him.

Appearance
Boruto bears a striking resemblance to his father, having his blond hair and blue eyes. He has three long bangs that hang over his forehead and the rest of his hair flares out on the sides and back. Boruto also has an ahoge (アホ毛) on the top of his head, which resembles the stem of a leaf. From his mother, he inherited the shape of both her eyes and face. He has two whisker markings on each cheek — which He inherited from his father.

In the post credit scene of Naruto Shippuuden movie 7, Boruto wore a black tracksuit. It is reminiscent of the orange one Naruto wore for most of the series. It had a red fire symbol on the left breast matching an insignia his mother once wore on her jacket in Part I, and red stripes along the sides of his pants. Behind Boruto's jacket, there was a symbol that resembled a bolt. He wore a pair of white sandals with this outfit.

Early in his days as a Ninja Academy student, his outfit is quite similar to this. Boruto wore a black tracksuit with red lining and stripes along the bottom and sleeve cuffs. Beneath the jacket, which he wore open and cuts off at the midriff, he wears a plain white T-shirt and a bolt tied to a string around his neck, and black pants. He also wears white shinobi sandals.

In the Boruto movie, he wears a black tracksuit outfit that has the jacket with magenta strikes on each side of the sleeves, including a pair black pant with shinobi bandages attach to his right leg that he uses for his kunai holder. Along with wearing a black Konoha forehead protector on his forehead and wearing black open-toed boots on his feet. Later on, when he goes to rescue his father after being removed from the Chunin Exams by cheating, Boruto wears the original orange tracksuit jacket that Naruto wore during Part I. He wears it by having it open and unzipped. Along with Naruto's jacket, he is seen wearing Sasuke's scratched forehead protector in place of his own. After the rescue mission is complete, Boruto gets his forehead protector back from his father. Along with wearing bandages on his right arm after it got seriously injured from him and his father using the Parent and Child Rasengan on Otsutsuki Momoshiki. Just like his father at his age, Boruto starts to wear his jacket torn up, thinking it looks cooler that way, as a sign to finally respecting his father.

Abilities
Boruto is variously called a prodigy and an elite genin, whereas that Mitsuki believes it's inevitable he'll be Hokage someday. When his father trains with him prior to his graduation from the Ninja Academy, Naruto briefly forgets he's only fighting a Ninja Academy student and contemplates going all out to keep up with Boruto. His skills are further refined under Sasuke's tutelage, granting him the maneuverability and precise aim needed to blind one of Momoshiki's Rinnegan. Although not his specialty, Boruto is competent in taijutsu. His combat style bears a strong resemblance to the Gentle Fist, utilising open palm strikes. With his father and Sasuke's aid, he could also defeat Momoshiki.

Kage Bunshin No Technique
Despite his young age, Boruto has shown the ability to use high ranking ninjutsu, despite the fact that he is only a genin. He's shown proficiency in using the Shadow Clone Technique, which he is able to skilfully switch places between himself and the clone. Because it's the trademark signature technique of his father, Boruto doesn't take too much pride of the accomplishment. Unlike his father who can creat a thousand clones, it turns out that Boruto can use four clones, since he admitted that four clones is his limit.

Rasengan
At Sasuke's insistence, Boruto learns how to perform the Rasengan from Sarutobi Konohamaru. Although it takes extensive practice, Boruto eventually becomes able to form it without shadow clones, the aid of which his father relied upon for years. Boruto's Rasengan is noted to initially be much smaller, however he eventually becomes able to create a normal-sized Rasengan after more training.

Taijutsu
Boruto has shown a degree of taijutsu proficiency since he was an Ninja Academy student, being able to spar with his father's shadow clones. He is also capable of using the Gentle Fist fighting style. But only for a limited extent since he does not possess the Byakugan, thus he cannot target an opponent's chakra points.

Shurikenjutsu
Sasuke also taught Boruto how to curve his shuriken in shurikenjutsu, increasing their accuracy and lethality.

Nature Transformation
Unlike his predecessors, Boruto is capable of throwing the Rasengan by unconsciously applying the Wind Release nature transformation, and letting it vanish mid-flight. As a sign of his prodigal abilities, Boruto learned to use Wind Release, Lightning Release, and by the time of his Chunin Exams, Water Release without any training required.

Cooperation Ninjutsu
Boruto has shown some skill in cooperation ninjutsu through his training with Sasuke. He was able to replicate his master's and his father's feat against Momochi Zabuza, which took out Momoshiki's Rinnegan to prevent him from absorbing anymore ninjutsu. He and Naruto can also perform their own version of the Parent and Child Rasengan, which was strong enough to defeat Otsutsuk Momoshiki.

Epilogue
When classes at the Ninja Academy are dismissed early due to the Five Kage Summit taking place in Konoha. Boruto tries to convince his classmates to help him pull a prank, believing a successful prank despite all the security would be a testament to their abilities. But all of his classmates refused, so he defaces the Hokage Monument by himself. He's stopped by Uzumaki Naruto, who orders Boruto to clean up the graffiti, but Boruto sadly suggests that they do together. Naruto reminds him that, as the Hokage, that the entire village is like his family Including that he can't always make time for his children. He asks that Boruto endure the hardship of their frequent separation.

As their graduation from the Ninja Academy approaches, Boruto and his classmates train with their parents to prepare them for their final exams. Naruto sends one of his shadow clones to train with Boruto and the two spar. Having not had the opportunity to do this with his dad in quite some time, Boruto tries very hard to be capture so they can spend more of time together. Because Naruto has other responsibilities that he needs to focus on; his adviser, Nara Shikamaru, catches Boruto with his Shadow Imitation Technique so they can bring the game to an end.

When Naruto leaves the village on a mission shortly afterwards. Boruto is sent by his mother to see Naruto off and deliver a lunch to him, but when he arrives late at the village's gate he finds that Naruto has already left. Annoyed, Boruto decides to go home despite Mitsuki's observation that they could still catch up to Naruto. At this suggestion, Uchiha Sarada and Akimichi Chocho suddenly appear and offer to deliver the lunch for him. In the end, Boruto reluctantly agrees. When they finally return, Boruto thanks Sarada for what she did. She insists that she should be thanking him, as she got a lot out of the experience and has now decided that she wants to become Hokage. But an angry Boruto scoffs at the idea, calling it weak.

Boruto movie
After becoming a genin, Boruto is assigned with Sarada and Mitsuki to Team Konohamaru. They are given a mission to capture a panda, but he gets into an argument with Sarada over whether it is a regular panda or an aggressive bear that looks like a panda. Boruto shows off his prodigious talents by using multiple shadow clones with ease, which earns him praise from Mitsuki but a scolding from Sarada for being reckless. Mitsuki comments how Boruto might become Hokage due to his father being the Seventh Hokage and his grandfather being the Fourth Hokage, but Boruto reacts to this with disinterest. After the bear is caught, Boruto reacts in amazement when Konohamaru gives them a demonstration of his Kote and uses it to launch a Rasengan, which ends up veering off course and destroying a farmer's house, much to the local's anger.

When they report to Naruto, Boruto energeticly shouts that the mission was easy with his prodigious skills including that he doesn't need teamwork. But Naruto shows disdain due to Boruto’s actions. Boruto gets into an argument with his father when Naruto asks his son to address him as "The Seventh" rather than "Dad". Naruto then asks Knohamaru what has he been teaching Boruto. But Boruto tells Naruto that he doesn't know anything about him, and not to blame Konohamaru. Including that he never bothers to watch over him, since he already has learned Wind Release, Lighting Release and now Water Release. Then with the topic of teamwork, Naruto tries to remind the importance of teamwork to Boruto. But he said he could do missions with just his clones. Angered that his father is still spending more time working, Boruto reminds Naruto that it's Himawari's birthday and he better be at home or else Boruto will never forgive him.

Then Katasuke entered soon after to ask Naruto's permission to allow the participants of the upcoming Chunin Exams to wear his latest invention, the Kote, a forearm device that stores various types of ninjutsu inside of it. However Naruto refused since it did not show one's true potential as a shinobi and saw it as a sign of cheating. Since Naruto had forbid the Kote to be use in the Chunin exams, this angers Boruto by telling his dad that times have change and so will the way we fight. He leaves the office saying that his father's timeline is lame.

Afterwards, Boruto meets up with Katasuke, who gives him a new software for his video game and asks Boruto if he would be taking part in the Chunin Exams, which Boruto says that he will not. At a restaurant, Boruto joins Shikadai and Inojin to play video games before he is joined by Sarada and Mitsuki. Sarada reminds Boruto about her dream of becoming Hokage and Boruto is keeping her from it by refusing to register for the Chunin Exams. Boruto retorts that if she wants to be Hokage, she better be alone for the rest of her life or else it will cause problems to those around her. Shikadai and Inojin ask Boruto beat the boss in their game, but Boruto gives them his new software to make the game easier. This makes them upset at Boruto for cheating and they leave, much to his confusion.

Sarada tells Boruto they should take part in the Exams so they can show off their abilities to Naruto, and he finally gives in after finding out that Naruto has to watch the finals. Boruto asks Sarada if her father, Sasuke, will come watch her in the Exams, to which she replies she doubts it. Boruto says his father told him that Sasuke is considered to be the other Hokage and refers to him as "Uncle Sasuke". As they talk about Sarada's father, Mitsuki says his parents told him that Sasuke is the only person who can fight evenly against Naruto, prompting Boruto and Sarada to wonder about his parents. Before they can ask him, Hinata and Himawari arrive to pick up Boruto and get ready for Himawari's birthday party. Boruto then runs in to his mother and sister and they walk home together.

Upon arriving home, Boruto was surprised but happy to find that his father showed up. Himawari's birthday goes well until Naruto starts carrying her birthday cake to the table, but he suddenly disappears dropping the cake on the table. It turns out however, that it was revealed to have been a shadow clone. After seeing this, Boruto got angry and lashed out about this to his mother. Hinata tried to remind him that Naruto's job as Hokage was important to the village, but Boruto wasn't swayed. He retorted that his grandfather wasn't alive when Naruto was a child and Naruto must have been lucky to never have parents, stating he envies his father for never having to put up with this sort of negligence. Which had saddened Hinata who told him that even though he and Naruto are different, she said to him that he was lucky to have a father here. Boruto says that he is disappointed with Naruto for Himawari's sake, and not his own. Rushing upstairs, Boruto finds Naruto's old, tattered jacket and throws it out of the window in a fit of rage.

When he heard the doorbell ring, he thought it was his father and was about to punch him before he saw it was Sasuke instead, and apologised. As Sasuke asked Hinata for Naruto's whereabouts, Boruto realised Sasuke was his father's rival and starts to admire him. After leaving from his meeting with Naruto, Boruto tries to attack Sasuke, who confronts him. Boruto asked Sasuke to take him as his student because there was someone he wanted to defeat. Unimpressed, Sasuke asked Boruto if he could use the Rasengan, to which Boruto said no, and Sasuke said he couldn't be his student if he couldn't use it.

That same night, Boruto goes to Konohamaru and demands to be taught the technique. However, Boruto is dismayed to start off the training with a water balloon and a rubber ball. Though it takes many days and Boruto finds the use of water balloons as a training device ridiculous, he eventually learns to create a Rasengan on his own. After a few days of training, Boruto was able to perform the Rasengan and showed it to Sasuke, who noted its' small size. Thinking Sasuke meant he failed, Boruto angrily threw the Rasengan and ran off, unaware, the Rasengan disappeared and struck a tree, which Sasuke noticed and decided to accept him as his student. Boruto goes to Katasuke and says the training didn't bring results, as he tells Katasuke. While comforting him, Katasuke entices Boruto to use the Kote to create the Rasengan, telling him that by using it, he will be able to surpass his father. Boruto agrees to use it without hesitation.

With the Kote, Boruto is able to create a standard-sized Rasengan and shows it to Sasuke, who notices the Kote under Boruto's sleeve and was reluctant to take him as his student. After an outburst from Boruto about his earlier promise, Sasuke agrees to take Boruto on as his student and help prepare him for the Chunin Exams so that Boruto can impress Naruto. Boruto progresses well under Sasuke's guidance, yet he still wishes to be the standout of the Chunin Exams. While taking a break from their training, Boruto asks Sasuke about Naruto's weaknesses. Sasuke elaborates that Naruto was full of weaknesses, but he overcame them to become the person that he is now. Sasuke teaches Boruto the shurikenjutsu, but Boruto complains it is Sarada's specialty because of her being Sasuke's daughter and an Uchiha. Sasuke responds by creating multiple clones and telling Boruto that the shadow clone technique is Naruto's specialty but hard work makes it possible for others to learn.

The first round of the Chunin Exams is a true or false quiz regarding a question about the fifth volume of a novel series. Knowing that Sarada had read the series, Boruto asks her for the answer, only for her to tell him that even she doesn't know as she was not aware there even was a fifth volume. Sarada asks Boruto which answer he thinks her father would choose and he replies with false since Sasuke isn't the conventional type. When he asks her why, Sarada says that she wants to take a different path than her father. When it is revealed that both answers are incorrect, Boruto and his teammates find themselves falling down a pit with a lake of ink at the bottom. Boruto is saved by Sarada and Mitsuki from falling into the ink. Boruto notices that the ink stretches across to both pits and Sarada deducts that the quiz was a sham from the start since there isn't even a fifth volume and it is revealed that anyone who falls into the ink is disqualified. Boruto feels hopeless when he realizes he would have been disqualified if not for his team members quick actions.

After winning the first round, Boruto was annoyed with Naruto congratulating him via email and not sending a shadow clone instead, leaving him more desperate to do anything to win his father's recognition. Progressing to the second round, they are forced to compete against other teams for flags. While Sarada and Mistuki leave to attain other teams' flags, Boruto stays behind to defend their flag and is attacked by three Kirigakure genin brothers. Boruto resorts to using the Kote when he was overpowered by the three brother's shadow clones. He is able to defeat them by using Water Release and Lightning Release on his opponent knocking them out. He then radios Sarada to finish the round, which leds to him and his team to pass the second round. Once they regroup, Sarada scolds Boruto for not being as happy as he should, but then tells him that his eyes are even bluer than his father's, which makes him blush and is given a fright when Mitsuki unexpectedly gets in his face to look for himself.

Boruto returns home that evening and is congratulated by his mother and sister for passing. As he sits in his room recuperating, Boruto starts to feel guilty about using the Kote. But Naruto enters his room in person shortly afterwards to personally congratulate him on passing the second round. Naruto tells Boruto not to lose to Shikadai in the next round and attempts to initiate a fist bump with his son, but Boruto doesn't return the gesture since he didn't want to risk his father discovering the Kote on his arm and simply smiled at him. Narut bumps Boruto on the chest and tells him that he'll be watching before he leaves. Boruto remarks afterwards that Naruto's brief words could have been put in an email, but he is nevertheless moved to tears by his father coming to see him.

In the third round, Boruto was first matched against Yurui. Desperate not to lose in front of his father, Boruto resorted to using the Kote so he attacks from afar and was able to defeat Yurui and progress through the round until he was finally matched against Shikadai. During the match, Shikadai catches him and all four of his shadow clones with the Shadow Imitation Technique. Although Boruto can't directly do anything to escape, he is able to use the Kote to make several dozen shadow clones, and won after Shikadai forfeit the match. However, Naruto had realized that Boruto was wearing a Kote after Hinata used her Byakugan and was disappointed that Boruto had been cheating throughout the exams. He takes his son's forehead protector, then deems Shikadai as the winner, and disqualifies Boruto, telling him they will talk when they get home. Angry, Boruto berates him for giving him a lecture when Naruto is never home and therefore doesn't realize that if he had payed more attention to Boruto then he would never have been in a situation such as this.

Then Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Otsutsuk Kinshiki appear soon after to capture Naruto and start attacking the arena, causing massive chaos. As Naruto urges Boruto to go somewhere safe, Momsohiki knocks Naruto out of the arena. Boruto tries to fight Momoshiki with the Kote, only for Momoshiki to absorb all of his attacks, leaving him scared and defenseless, however Naruto jumps in to protect his son just in time. They are then joined by Sasuke and Sarada. Momoshiki reveals that he and Kinshiki plan to take the world's charka for themselves to grant themselves unfathomable power without ever needing to train to earn any of it. To this end, their plan reminds Boruto of the Kote. Momoshiki attacks with the jutsu he's absorbed, including those earlier used by Boruto.

When Sarada shows fear at Momoshiki's impressive display of his strength, Boruto creates a Shadow Clone to protect Sarada. Naruto protects them with his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode - which Boruto hasn't seen before - though even with help from Sasuke's Susanoo it cannot shield all of Momoshiki's attacks. While trying to defend themselves as well as all the people evacuating, Naruto ends up sacrificing himself to protect Boruto, Sasuke, and Sarada from Momoshiki's jutsu while he engages Momoshiki with his Tailed Beast Mode and asks Sasuke to take care of Boruto. Before Naruto disappears, he turns to smile at his son and Boruto who is amazed by Naruto's power calls out to him before falling unconscious.

When he wakes up, he finds Sarada and Mitsuki watching over him. As they explain to him what happened, Boruto hears his sister crying out to their mother and finds her being healed by Sarada's mother, Haruno Sakura. Demanding to know what happened to his mother, Sakura explains to Boruto that Hinata was injured after trying to save Naruto from Momoshiki and Kinshiki. Realizing that his father is gone, Boruto became distraught and runs out of the hospital. Once outside, he trips over a box and as he gets up. He sees the Kote on his wrist and angrily rips it off, and throws it away because it unfavorably reminds him of Momoshiki. He then starts walking again continuing to the Hokage Tower.

Feeling guilty for how he treated his father, Boruto wonders into Naruto's office and finds his father's old jacket. He then puts it on, and comments on how uncool he looks. Sasuke, having followed Boruto, agrees with him. Sasuke informs Boruto that he received scorn at the Exams for cheating, is technically not a shinobi anymore and that if it was not for his little sister who adores him and his mother who worries over him, he'd be just like how Naruto used to be. Boruto demands to know how his father overcame his hardships, to which Sasuke replies that he should ask Naruto himself and further elaborates that he can still sense Naruto's chakra and intends to rescue him. Boruto asks Sasuke why he would bother with someone like him, to which Sasuke replies that he believes Boruto is a strong shinobi who could potentially surpass Naruto one day and Sasuke's number one student including that just like Naruto that he is a idiot who dislike losing.

With his confidence restored, Boruto decides to join Sasuke and the other four Kage on the mission to rescue Naruto. As they prepare to leave, Sasuke lends Boruto his old forehead protector. Sasuke uses his Rinnegan to open a portal to the dimension where Naruto is being held and just before they leave, Hinata arrives with, Sakura, Sarada and Mitsuki, to stop Boruto from going in fear for his safety. However, seeing Boruto wearing his father's old jacket and Sasuke's forehead protector, she is reminded of Naruto when he was young and decides to trust him. Boruto asks Sarada and Mitsuki to look after everyone before following Sasuke into the portal.

Once arriving in the other dimension, they find Momoshiki attempting extract Kurama from Naruto and they engage in battle. As Sasuke and Boruto then rescue Naruto from the tree. Naruto asks about why is Boruto here and why he's wearing the jacket. Sasuke says that many things happened but Boruto has become a shinobi. After freeing Naruto, his father comments on how seeing Boruto wear his old jacket was like looking at his own shadow clone. When Boruto asks Naruto if he looks a little cool in his father's old jacket, Naruto tells him that he does even more than before. Which surprised Boruto on figuring out that his father has been watching him all along. When Naruto tries to apologize for inadvertently neglecting him. Boruto says that he is fine with things remaining the same, and he only asks Naruto that whenever they can meet up now that instead of giving lectures. That he just wants Naruto to tell him about his childhood past, to which Naruto tells Boruto ok.

After Momoshiki absorbed Kinshiki, Boruto watched on in awe as Naruto and Sasuke fought against Momoshiki and defeated him. However Katasuke, who had followed them, rushed in and used his device to shoot a barrage of attacks at Momoshiki, which Momoshiki absorbed and used his new strength to attack them. Boruto is protected by Sasuke from Momoshiki's attacks.

While Momoshiki had Naruto and the Kage trapped using the Shadow Imitation Technique and was preparing to finish them off, Sasuke ordered Boruto to use his Rasengan to stop Momoshiki and although Boruto was hesitant that his jutsu would not work, Sasuke encouraged him that he can give his best. Boruto was ultimately successful in hitting Momoshiki with his Vanishing Rasengan and thus able to free Naruto and the Kage. When Sasuke tells Boruto to use his Rasengan again, he is unsure again but his father tells him that it's alright and Boruto is okay with Sasuke's plan. With his father's help, Boruto is able to create a giant Rasengan while Sasuke began to distract Momoshiki long enough for Boruto to attack him, but little did Momoshiki know that both Boruto and Sasuke were working together in order to take out the Rinnegan eye in his palm, which allowed him to absorb ninjustu attacks. While Boruto and Naruto's chakra were mixing together, Boruto was able to see Naruto's memories, including the many losses he had to endure in order to become the shinobi he is today. Boruto then attacked Momoshiki with his giant Rasengan and Momoshiki, unable to absorb, was destroyed and as a result, Boruto's right arm was severely burned. After Momoshiki is killed, Boruto is standing up after using the Parent and Child Rasengan. Then they all return to Konoha.

After the battle, Boruto becomes very popular among the villagers and is even considered as a young hero, because of his involvement in defeating Momoshiki. He also poses for a photograph with Naruto, Sasuke, and the other four Kage.

Boruto's life sees many changes once he comes back home. One morning, Boruto eats breakfast with his family while playing his video game, while using a non-hacked video game character from the start without cheating, even though it makes the game more difficult. Including that Naruto is home more often and Boruto is supportive of his grueling work schedule. Follow by that Boruto no longer hates the Hokage title, but he still doesn't want to be Hokage. As he prepares to meet with his team and Naruto to head over to his office, Boruto tells his mother not to worry about mending his torn jacket as he thinks it looks cooler the way it is. As Boruto and his father head out, the two of them bump fists and encourage each other to do their best. While going to meet his team, Boruto used shadow clones to attend the same type of interview as Naruto did with Boruto being asked the same question and Boruto answering exactly like his father did “To be a Ninja, you need to remember, it’s about: Effort and Will-Power!” Then his clone that has been interviewed disappears after that.

Boruto and his teammates are given a mission to capture the giant panda, which is running loose in the village. Mitsuki comments on all the attention Boruto has been receiving lately but Sarada is still angry at Boruto for cheating and Boruto says he has already apologised many times to her about that. Sarada questions Boruto on whether or not he wants to become Hokage now, however Boruto explains to her that he has no interest in becoming Hokage but he supports Sarada's dream of becoming Hokage and he will protect her no matter what, which makes her blush. He also adds that his goal is to become a ninja like Sasuke and follow his own ninja way.

Video Games
Uzumaki Boruto is a playable character in the following video game:
 * Naruto Shippuuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4

Uzumaki Naruto
Boruto's father is Uzumaki Naruto, a legendary tall man with good talent and an appearance similar to him. Boruto has a loving relationship with his father, by often playing with him whenever he has free time. Years later on the day of his Seventh Hokage inauguration, Naruto got caught in a fight between Boruto and Himawari. With the result of his sister's teddy bear having to accidentally been destroyed by Boruto, the fight is what led to Himawari finally awakening her byakugan. Naruto then stepped in to defend Boruto from Himawari's Gentle Fist-strike and took the blow instead, rendering him unconscious. This shows that he cares about Boruto's safety, even when he tries not to harm both of his own children.

Although he loved his father, Boruto's relationship with him grew more complicated as Naruto's duties as Hokage detracted him from spending enough time with his family, which made Boruto feel neglected, including to hate the Hokage title. Boruto would occasionally pull pranks such as defacing the Hokage Monument just to seek his father's attention. Despite reprimanding Boruto for his behavior, Naruto understood what his son wanted and lectured him to endure any hardship as a true shinobi would. Eventually, Naruto reached a compromise by using his shadow clones to play hide-and-seek with Boruto, with the condition that he can't use Sage Mode since that'd make the game too easy, which also helped with his son's training.

However, Boruto would react with dismay at the mention of him following in the footsteps of his father and late grandfather, since he often felt like he lived in both of their shadows. When Boruto's team reported to Naruto on the mission with catching a Panda. Boruto energeticly shouts that the mission was easy with his prodigious skills including that he doesn't need teamwork. But Naruto shows disdain due to Boruto’s actions. Boruto gets into an argument with his father when Naruto asks his son to address him as "The Seventh" rather than "Dad". Naruto then askew Knohamaru what has he been teaching Boruto. But Boruto tells Naruto that he doesn't know anything about him, and not to blame Konohamaru. Including that he never bothers to watch over him, since he already has learned Wind Release, Lighting Release and now Water Release. Then with the topic of teamwork, Naruto tries to remind the importance of teamwork to Boruto. But he said he could do missions with just his clones. Boruto was even angry that Naruto has become more strict and serious compare to back then when he was not the Hokage yet.

He even warned Naruto to show up at Himawari's birthday party, or he will never forgive him. But when Katasuke entered soon after to ask Naruto's permission to allow the participants of the upcoming Chunin Exams to wear his latest invention, the Kote, a forearm device that stores various types of ninjutsu inside of it. Naruto refused since it did not show one's true potential as a shinobi and saw it as a sign of cheating. Since Naruto had forbid the Kote to be use in the Chunin exams, this angers Boruto by telling his dad that times have change and so will the way we fight. He leaves the office saying that his father's timeline is lame.

But when Naruto sended a shadow clone to attend the party, Boruto was angry that Naruto didn't keep his promise. But Boruto felt bad knowing that his father was an orphan, but did not know what Naruto had to endure when he was young. Including that Naruto told Boruto that his late grandfather was not around when Naruto was a child. But knew that his father told him that his late grandfather was the Fourth Hokage. Due to this, Boruto knows that his father had never learned about or experienced a father-son relationship. Boruto even admitted that Naruto must have been lucky to never have parents, which had saddened Hinata. In Naruto's defense, Hinata even told Boruto that he was lucky to have a father where as Naruto did not.

As a result, Boruto tended to rebel against his father and used any means to surpass his legacy, even by cheating in the Chunin Exams. However, after being caught cheating by his father, and being removed from the exam including almost seeing his father nearly die. This experience changed Boruto, making him finally understand the true meaning of being a shinobi and finally respecting Naruto including the title of Hokage.

Once arriving in the other dimension, they find Momoshiki attempting extract Kurama from Naruto and the four kage engage in battle. As Sasuke and Boruto then rescue Naruto from the tree. He asks about why is Boruto here and why he's wearing the jacket. Sasuke says that many things happened but Boruto has become a shinobi. After freeing Naruto, his father comments on how seeing Boruto wear his old jacket was like looking at his own shadow clone. When Boruto asks Naruto if he looks a little cool in his father's old jacket, Naruto tells him that he does even more than before. Which surprised Boruto on figuring out that his father has been watching him all along.

Naruto even apologized to Boruto for not always being there for him. Boruto says that he is fine with things remaining the same, and he only asks Naruto that whenever they can meet up now that instead of giving lectures. That he just wants Naruto to tell him about his childhood past, to which Naruto tells Boruto ok. Naruto was even surprised that Boruto can do the Rasengan, and he even told Boruto that he needs to trust in Sasuke when it comes to the Uchiha making good plans with the Rasengan. Which had led Naruto to help Boruto do the Parent and Child Rasengan during the battle with Momoshiki. While Naruto and Boruto's chakra were mixing together, Naruto was able to show his memories to Boruto, including the many losses he had to endure in order to become the shinobi he is today. After the battle, Naruto is able to reconcile with his son after this, by vowing as a father to always watch his son grow up as a great shinobi. Then Naruto posed for a photograph with Boruto, Sasuke, and the other four Kage. Naruto even tended to Boruto's injuries by bandaging his son's left arm, since it was seriously injure and had giving him back his forehead protector.

Due to the fact that Boruto finally decided to take his training seriously by wanting to be a great shinobi like Sasuke. Which had led him to finally make the normal actual size Rasengan that Naruto uses. Due to this, Naruto and Hinata are able to have a normal family moment together at the end of the movie, where Naruto and Boruto ate breakfast together while Hinata fixes up Boruto's jacket. Including that Naruto is home more often and Boruto is supportive of his grueling work schedule. Then as Boruto left to meet with his team and Naruto left to go to work, both wished each other to do their best and bumped fists with each other. Now that he starts to admire his father again, it turns out that Boruto used a shadow clone to attend the same interview that Naruto did on the day of Himawari's birthday. Including that everything that he taught Boruto about how to be a shinobi have finally reached him. This had brought a smile on Naruto's face since he was watching the interview in his office.
