Chapter Summaries

Sasuke agreed to fight Feng Yao after Danzo threatened Boruto, while Hiruzen Sarutobi prepared to use Hashirama and Madara to defeat him. Madara broke free of Danzo’s control, the battle paused, and Hiruzen tried to persuade Madara that Feng Yao’s plan to unite the Shinobi World would mean oppressive rule.

• Sasuke agreed to fight Feng Yao because Boruto was in Danzo’s custody, though he remained ready to use his Rinnegan to protect him.
• Hiruzen Sarutobi rejoiced at the prospect of controlling Hashirama and Madara, but Danzo could not command Madara because Madara had freed himself from the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu.
• Kakashi explained how a reincarnated person could escape the caster’s control, and Hiruzen released his control over Hashirama and Tobirama.

• Hiruzen Sarutobi appealed to Madara by arguing that Feng Yao’s plan to unite the Shinobi World would put it under one man’s oppressive rule, and Madara reconsidered the argument.

• Madara Uchiha, Hashirama, and Sasuke each manifested a towering warrior, and Madara laughed as he welcomed fighting alongside Hashirama again.
