Manga

The debut chapter of the Boruto manga opens on a wrecked Konoha where Boruto and Kawaki clash, then rewinds to a younger Boruto's resentment of his father and the events that pull him into the Chunin Exams and toward Sasuke.

The opening of Sasuke's solo journey sends him to a far-off land in search of a cure for Naruto's mysterious illness. A robbery, a case of mistaken intentions, and a deliberate arrest land him inside a prison whose real secrets he came to uncover.

The opening chapter of Konoha Shinden follows young Mirai Sarutobi, who loses her way chasing a stray cat and stumbles into a rogue ninja who calls her craft obsolete. A brush with defeat and a lesson from Shikamaru mark the first step toward the shinobi she hopes to become.

The debut chapter of the series introduces Naruto Uzumaki, an outcast orphan who holds the sealed Nine-Tailed Fox. It sets his dream of becoming Hokage against the village's mistrust and ends with his first true friendship.

Sasuke settles into prison life while probing its central mystery, the dragon Menō. Between a slacker cellmate and a rigged dice game, he tests the beast in secret and uncovers both a healing power he cannot explain and a warden who cannot be deceived.

The second chapter of Naruto introduces the Third Hokage's mischievous grandson, Konohamaru, who latches onto Naruto as a mentor. Bonding over a shared dream of becoming Hokage and a shared frustration at being overlooked, the two rascals reach a surprisingly mature understanding.

Mirai clears a bandit hideout but wrestles with whether she is a ninja in her own right or only her father's shadow. A new assignment escorting two retired legends across the border promises far less danger than its rank suggests.

Boruto chases a shortcut to greatness, hoping to win Sasuke as a teacher by mastering the Rasengan. His impatience and a piece of forbidden tech set up a lesson about cheating, while two invaders quietly begin hunting the tailed beasts.

Beaten as punishment and poisoned by the dragon's claws, Sasuke nearly falls before a familiar rescuer arrives. The chapter reunites him with Sakura, reveals the true target of his mission, and points the search toward the prison's own library.

A light Konoha Shinden chapter follows Mirai as she chaperones Kakashi and Guy on what looks like a mission but plays out as a vacation. A stolen wallet, a fake secret assignment, and a beloved novel keep her guessing about the two veterans.

The hunt for the star chart leads to the prison library and a marathon card game. Sakura outlasts a gambling-addicted attendant to win a forbidden key, and the recovered book ties the constellations to the Sage of Six Paths and to a nagging sense of recognition in Sasuke.

The chapter that introduces Team 7's jōnin leader and sets up the bell test. Awkward introductions give way to Kakashi's survival trial, where a lone bell short of the group teases who might be sent back to the Academy.

The fourth chapter of Konoha Shinden: Steam Ninja Scrolls follows Mirai on a low-stakes border assignment that stretches far longer than she expects and lands her in the middle of a town split down the middle by cats and dogs.

A near-fatal petting of the dragon hands Sasuke the clue that cracks the star cards. Armed with the Nine-Tails insight, he and Sakura pose as a government messenger and his staff to slip into Zansūru's office, only to find a baffling secret waiting below.

The fifth Boruto chapter erupts as the Chūnin Exams are shattered by two Ōtsutsuki invaders. Disqualified and reeling, Boruto watches his cheating device prove useless against Momoshiki, while Naruto, Sasuke, and the Kage scramble to shield a stadium of civilians from an enemy hunting chakra itself.

The fifth chapter of the Steam Ninja Scrolls spin-off sets a lovers' quarrel against a citywide festival feud. Mirai looks for a way to bridge the split between the town's cat and dog camps before Kiba's romance falls apart.

Chapter 5 puts the new Team 7 through the bell test. While Sasuke and Sakura lie in wait, Naruto charges Kakashi head-on, only to be swatted aside by a jōnin who barely looks up from his book. His clever clone gambit ends in an embarrassing surprise.

Loser is the sixth chapter of the Boruto manga, tracing the fallout after Momoshiki's abduction of Naruto. Wracked by guilt, Boruto trades his gadget for his father's ideals and sets out with Sasuke to bring the Hokage back.

A quiet ryokan stay turns into a study of Might Guy in this Konoha Shinden chapter. Between hot spring chatter about courage and a rumored haunting, Guy goads Kakashi into a ping pong showdown while Tenten cooks up a scheme of her own.

The chapter that closes out the bell test. Sasuke proves the toughest of the three, Naruto gets caught raiding lunch, and Kakashi delivers a blunt verdict that stops short of sending anyone back to the Academy.

Chapter 8 closes the bell test with Kakashi's lesson on teamwork, and the way his three students finally break his rule to help one another earns them a passing grade.

Fed up with menial chores, Naruto pushes for a real assignment, and Team 7 gets one: guarding an old bridge builder on the road to the Land of Waves. The trip turns deadly almost as soon as it begins.

Kakashi unveils his hidden Sharingan to counter the assassin Zabuza, and the two ninja trade blows through a veil of mist where nothing, not even the fighters themselves, is quite what it seems.

The thirteenth chapter of the manga finds Kakashi outmaneuvered on the Land of Waves job, snared inside Zabuza's watery cage. With the jonin sealed away, the duty of guarding Tazuna lands on his three genin, and Naruto chooses to charge forward rather than obey the order to run.

Chapter 14 of the Konoha Shinden: Steam Ninja Scrolls manga has Mirai break Ryūki's control over Tatsumi with a new wind technique. The clash forces her to confront the same doubt that drives her enemy: what a shinobi is worth in an age of peace.

Kakashi drills Team 7 in a climbing exercise meant to sharpen their control over chakra, exposing a surprising gap in the squad's rankings. Across the way, a recovering Zabuza and his loyal ally prepare for a rematch.

Chapter 19 tours the impoverished Land of Waves through Sakura's eyes while Naruto and Sasuke turn their tree-climbing practice into a stubborn contest, and Tazuna recounts how his family and country lost all hope under Gatō.

Boruto chapter 19 sends Team 7 to a crash site swarming with autonomous ninja-weapon puppets, where they reunite with an injured Konohamaru and cross paths with the mysterious retired shinobi Ao.

Blue Vortex chapter 20 runs two desperate fights side by side, as Konohamaru gambles on Matsuri's feelings and Sarada refuses to betray a friend. Both struggles pivot on love, and one of them ends with a new pair of eyes opening in the sky.

Chapter 20 tells the story behind Inari's despair. A remembered father figure, a flooded land, and a public execution explain why hope died in the Land of Waves, and why Naruto refuses to let it stay dead.

Recovering from grueling tree-climbing practice, Naruto meets a gentle stranger who shares a lesson about where real strength comes from. Neither realizes the boy is the masked enemy from the recent battle, and the exchange leaves Naruto ready to finish his training.

Boruto chapter 21 has the Konoha team set a trap for the jutsu-absorbing Ao, luring out his blindspot so Boruto can turn Ao's own philosophy about tools against him with a decisive Rasengan.

In this Blue Vortex chapter, Sarada finally wields the Mangekyō Sharingan she never realized she had, cutting down Ryū before the power leaves her spent. Meanwhile the mounting cost of the plan weighs on those steering it, and Boruto defies orders to save Konohamaru.

Chapter 22 slows down after a stretch of brutal tree-climbing drills to look inward, as young Inari lashes out at the relentlessly upbeat Naruto and Kakashi quietly defends the boy he has been pushing. The calm shatters the next morning when two familiar foes are found waiting at the bridge.
