04x177 - The Iron Wall's Sensing System

[bunniefuu]

MONKEY RAM SNAKE

The automated system has detected an intruder

in the vicinity of the A-Un Gate.

And the cross-check?

The chakra isn't registered.

Notify the Search Team!

Have them head there immediately!

HORSE SNAKE

We received the chakra of the intruder.

We'll head there immediately to restrain them!

Don't move!

Excellent!

First off, the new system is a success!

BOAR DOG BIRD MONKEY

Since the last Great w*r,

The Iron Wall's Sensing System

peace has prevailed between the Five Great Nations.

That's why we've been able to maintain

a low level of security in the Leaf Village.

However, in recent years,

interaction between nations has continually increased,

and more suspicious characters have been able to infiltrate.

So, with the cooperation of the Scientific Ninja Tools Team,

a new sensory system has been developed.

This system is based on the Jutsu Formula

that was used during the Great w*r which was placed

BOUNDARY

throughout the village so that our predecessors could detect intruders.

Now, thanks to science,

the system has been completely automated.

With this technology,

RAM HORSE SNAKE

every inch of the village will be enveloped in a barrier, day and night.

And anyone who passes through

NINJA A-UN

will have his or her chakra automatically sensed.

Any chakra that doesn't correlate with the registry,

can be immediately identified at the scene.

However, with this system,

detection is possible only immediately after one passes the barrier.

So, in order to capture an intruder,

like in the test just now, swift response is essential.

Dad's got a difficult job.

We've asked you young members with sensory abilities to assemble

and participate in an operational test to collect data

to ensure this system is working properly.

As part of this operational test,

organized infiltration teams will hit the barrier in succession.

You will pursue them as members of the search team.

That is all!

– Right! – Right!

What? You guys were called up to do this too?

Yeah, as part of the infiltration team!

By the way, Inojin…

Since when were you part of the Sensory Unit?

I'm not!

My scores on the ability test were good,

so they suddenly called me up.

Wow!

I didn't know you had sensory skills.

Well, my mom taught me the basics when I was a kid.

It isn't something that's hard to do.

The Yamanaka Clan are specialists

in sensory perception and transmission, after all.

Though I'm really more suited for the Super Beast Scroll,

so I'm not too sure about this whole thing.

Maybe this is just for today.

What's that thing you've been poring over since earlier?

The Bingo Book.

We were ordered to memorize the new additions.

It's such a drag.

Chunin don't have it easy, huh?

Man, this is a drag for me too!

Hey, you!

You're Inojin Yamanaka, right?

Yes.

I'm going to be your partner in a two-man team for this.

I'm Kohan Yamanaka.

Nice to meet you.

Sorry to interrupt your conversation.

Not at all.

I'm Shikadai Nara with the infiltration team.

This is Boruto Uzumaki.

Nice to meet you, ya know!

Thanks for your help in collecting valuable data.

We're relying on you!

– Roger! – Roger!

Okay, we'll be going.

See you later, Inojin!

Yeah!

Is something the matter?

Oh, no…

I just didn't know Ms. Ino had such a grown son.

Let me just say this in advance, I'm not my mother.

I know that.

I'm not going to pull any punches, so be prepared.

In that case,

I would appreciate it if you made some allowances…

I don't think that's gonna happen.

Is my mom that famous?

Yeah!

After the Great w*r,

she took the lead in rebuilding the sensory network.

So, everyone respects her.

I've only seen Mom working at the flower shop.

Is it really okay to put her in charge of sensing?

I don't see any problem with that.

In fact, team morale is up since we've been reinstated for on-site duty.

Reporting! East side, HA-B sector.

Unregistered chakra detected. Transmitting now.

Roger. We'll head there immediately.

Let's go!

Right!

First, show me what you've got.

The intruder should be around here.

Track the chakra that we received.

Right.

What?

What is it?!

Oh, what? That's weird.

Is it going to take a while?

Well, how do I put this?

It's been a while, so…

Time's up. Please finish up.

Roger!

Huh?!

Don't worry. This is just an operational test.

You'll have more chances.

I'll give you a little hint.

Seems you might know this next intruder!

Try finding them!

Right!

Found 'em!

Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll!

Hey!

Get 'em!

I found them!

Too bad!

I was over here.

Hey, are you okay?

Sensory perception is pretty hard, isn't it?

FIRE

I'm so tired.

You didn't get a single one right.

To be honest, I've never properly sensed before.

What?!

What is it?

And you're Ino's son?

Unfortunately…

Oh, sorry. Forget what I said.

Anyway, do your best this afternoon too.

That's why I told you I'm not my mom.

How's the data?

Yes, it will be done soon.

Start analyzing as soon as they're collated.

Sensory is crucial to the village's defense.

It all starts here!

Let's build the best system ever, together!

MONKEY RAM HORSE SNAKE DOG

– Right! – Yes! Okay!

All right. Leave it to us!

Could you do this?

Inojin!

You're done with the morning test, right?

Uh… yeah.

Seems you didn't do well at all.

Well, yeah.

W-What is it?!

I'm sorry.

Huh?

Sorry for pushing you to do something you don't like.

You don't have to participate in the afternoon test if you don't want to.

See you later!

Mom!

Sorry, sorry!

Let's move on to the next phase immediately!

– Roger! – Roger!

What's the matter?

Dad…

I think I disappointed Mom.

I thought I could do a little better.

Do you know why Mom is so proud of sensory missions?

Because it's what the Yamanaka Clan does, right?

You're only half right.

The number one reason is because she respects your grandfather.

Grandpa who died in the Great w*r?

Mr. Inoichi was a great ninja.

He was always able to read the situation,

and even though he knew he was going to die,

he stayed on his ninja path until the end for the sake of his friends.

Your mother is trying to carry on his will.

But she never told me to do sensory stuff.

Even just now–!

She doesn't want to force her wishes onto you.

She just wants you to take a serious look at yourself.

In the same way Mr. Inoichi's way of living his life inspired her,

she feels maybe it could inspire you.

So, there's no reason to force yourself.

For the time being…

I think you should just do what you can do with everything you've got.

I think that's more than enough.

He's not coming. I guess it didn't work out, after all.

Mr. Kohan!

You're late!

I'm sorry!

Um!

Huh?

Can you teach me the tricks to sensory perception, again?

Huh?

Please!

Sensory Ninjutsu is similar to Mind Transfer Jutsu.

First, you have to calm yourself,

and focus your mind.

Like Mind Transfer,

you sense chakra at the point where you focus your mind.

There are two people approaching from the rear corner.

Good job!

Still, this is hard.

Even now, I can only sense at close range.

You'll get used to it in time.

Unregistered chakra detected in sector G

by the outer southeast wall, near the maintenance facility.

Search team in the vicinity, please head to the site.

Let's go.

Right!

This is where the chakra was detected.

Here?

The workers are touching the barrier, right?

Yeah, but their chakra is registered.

Even if they come and go, the system wouldn't set off an alert.

So, this means, an intruder is trying to slip into this group.

So, we have to correctly single out the unregistered chakra

from all this chakra?

Yeah, and quickly. Can you do it?

I will!

There's definitely a strong reaction.

What is it?

I sensed weird chakra just now…

Weird chakra?

Over there!

Hey!

What?!

Oh, you found me, huh?

Hey, Inojin!

Shikadai?!

Good job distinguishing him from the rest!

Huh? Well…

I wish you had run around a little more, but…

Come on… That's a drag.

Otherwise, you can't call it an operational test.

Still, I think you're getting the hang of sensory perception.

You're wrong.

It wasn't Shikadai.

I was concerned with some different chakra that was here.

Oh yeah, there was another worker here.

But that chakra!

There was definitely another person's chakra here.

But I didn't sense anything unusual about it.

How was it weird?

Well, how do I put this?

It felt sorta rough and creepy.

Maybe you were sensing so much chakra at once,

you couldn't parse through all of the information?

No, but—!

You can get mixed up sometimes.

That's not it!

I get it.

Let's ask around then.

Thank you!

Damn it.

This is Kohan.

Sorry, but can you match up the data again?

Roger. Checking the waveform.

MOKUME ARAI

Mokume Arai. He's registered.

There's a record of him touching the barrier a little earlier as well,

but there's nothing of concern.

Roger that. Thank you.

You heard her.

But it was really weird chakra.

It's making me feel uneasy! It seemed different from the others!

So, what do you want us to do?

Well…

Excuse me.

Is it all right if we look into this a little bit?

But—!

Inojin can be grumpy and cynical, but he never lies.

Please!

Besides, this is an operational test for the sensory barrier, correct?

Then collecting this kind of data will have some significance, right?

That's true, but…

You're that concerned?

Yes! Please!

All right.

Check until you're satisfied.

Thank you!

I'll finish up the rest.

When you're done, make sure you report back!

Right!

Thanks, Shikadai.

But calling me grumpy and cynical was uncalled for.

It's true though. Anyway…

Boruto should be nearby too.

Let's get his help and find this weird chakra quick.

Yeah!

Mokume Arai?

I'm pretty sure he's with the maintenance crew.

But he's off today.

What?

But he was at the construction site.

His chakra was sensed and verified too.

What's going on?

It's not too strange since it's his day off,

he could have just been walking around nearby.

Excuse me! Do you know where he is?

Umm…

Mokume's not in the village.

Not in the village?

He went to a wedding of a friend who lives outside the village.

He left yesterday on the Thunder Train.

I dropped him off at the station myself, so there's no mistake.

What does this mean?

This Mokume guy is sketchy, after all.

He left through the A-Un gate yesterday,

but his chakra is here today?

It means he snuck back into the village…

It's suspicious, right?

Yeah.

Why would he have to do that?

Hey…

Was it actually him that came back?

It's possible someone did a transformation and snuck in.

That's impossible.

No matter who you disguise yourself as,

your own chakra doesn't change.

You can't fool the barrier.

Chakra doesn't change…

No way!

Huh?

It's him!

Yorishiro…

…Hyoi?

He has the ability to copy someone else's chakra.

Copy someone's chakra?!

Yeah.

It's a very rare jutsu.

If he pretended to be someone else with this trick,

it's totally possible he could pass through the sensory barrier.

So, this Hyoi guy is pretending to be Mokume Arai?

But for what reason?

He's a thief.

He's been selling classified village information

and other things worth money.

We received intel that the Land of Fire might be his next target,

so he was added to the Bingo Book.

Then that's more reason we have to find him fast!

Calculating the time that I got a sense of him,

he couldn't have gotten that far.

Yeah, but there's one snag.

If he's already transformed into someone other than Mokume,

it'll be harder to find him.

So, what do we do?

That's why, Inojin, we have to rely on you.

Huh? Why?!

You're the only one who sensed that chakra.

Your sensory perception is the key to finding Hyoi.

But I'm still not as good as my mom.

In any case, let's try finding him!

Y-Yeah…

So, we think it's possible he's Hyoi Yorishiro,

MONKEY RAM HORSE SNAKE DOG

and we're heading for the town on the south side of K sector.

Ms. Ino, what should we do?

Please mobilize the search teams who are standing by.

Roger.

Inojin!

Mom?

Thank you for your report. Also…

Don't think about me. Just give it your all!

Huh?

Do your best!

Huh? What's that supposed to–?

What's up?

GOOD FOOD ALLEY

W-With all these people, how am I gonna–?!

Inojin, just try generally sensing this whole area.

I can't! I can't sense an area this wide!

I'm not my mom.

You don't know unless you try!

Inojin, you're the only one who can sense that chakra.

Let's do what we can right now.

And if you don't sense anything, we'll think of the next step.

Oh!

For the time being…

I think you should just do what you can do with everything you've got.

Don't think about me. Just give it your all!

I'll do it.

I'll do whatever I can!

Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll!

What are you trying to do?

The Super Beast Scroll is infused with my chakra.

By using it,

I'll be able to expand the scope of my sensory perception!

Damn it! My chakra's–!

Found him!

What's going on?

Hyoi Yorishiro!

You're not getting away now!

Damn it!

Shikadai!

What?!

Gotcha!

This won't hold me!

Inojin!

I got this!

Super Beast Scroll!

There's no mistake.

You're Hyoi Yorishiro.

That looks painful.

A job well done, huh?

Yeah!

MONKEY RAM HORSE SNAKE DOG

Thank you for the hard work.

The operation test handed us a real big catch.

About Inojin Yamanaka… His sensory skills…

…just won't do.

According to the report,

his other skills are still lacking in order to be a sensory ninja.

You know what they say,

"Nothing like desperation to sharpen your focus."

But…

That's more than enough for me!

We're having the Scientific Ninja Tools Team

add a filter to detect imposters.

So, we'll be good from now on.

And it's all thanks to you guys.

It was just by chance.

Are you going to close the flower shop?

Huh?

I mean, you really seem to enjoy it.

I'm not closing up.

Huh?

Whether it's using my sensory skills to protect the village

or making people happy with the flower shop…

They're both important to me and things I want to do.

That's why I want you to do what you want,

and not worry about anything!

Well, I'll do my best!

The day of the memorial service always makes me think

about that day.

Our fathers entrusted and left everything to us.

But sometimes I wonder if it was meant just to raise our morale.

Maybe one day… just like our dads,

the time will come when we'll lead by example

and believe in our children and leave everything in their hands.
