To the Dreamworld

On the march, Tenten pins her hopes on the Treasured Tools of the Sage of Six Paths she has recovered, aiming to track down Kumogakure shinobi who can teach her their use. Madara's fallen forehead plate strikes the scroll and turns her gaze skyward just as the Infinite Tsukuyomi takes hold. She lunges for the tools and is swallowed by the God Tree's roots, then finds herself, bewildered, back in her own bedroom in the Leaf. Out on the streets she is thrown by the sight of her teammates carrying personalities nothing like the ones she knows.

A meal with them at Yakiniku Q ends early when Tenten cuts out. Failing to recognize the Fourth Hokage's face on the cliff, she deduces she is under a genjutsu she cannot dispel. Her research into it and her growing distance leave her comrades worried, and Hinata seizes her weapons scroll and demands to know what is wrong. When Tenten tries to wrestle it back, Menma Namikaze steps in and hands the scroll over, and as villagers gather she loudly condemns the false village while a passing merchant takes a curious interest.

Episode 427 of Shippuden falls under Birth of the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki and adapts chapter 677. Per Studio Pierrot's blog, the dream unfolds in the setting of Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie, though what was a genuine dimension in the film is only a dream here. A continuity slip also shifts Menma from between Sasuke and Sakura to the left in the next shot. It aired in Japan on September 3, 2015, and in English on January 9, 2018, with the opening "Wind" and the ending "Rainbow's Sky."
