S7E148 The Heir to Darkness
Naruto and his team, accompanied by Hotaru and Utakata, head back to Mount Katsuragi to strategize their next steps. Tonbei shares a method to eliminate the forbidden jutsu from Hotaru, which would diminish its potency. Hotaru mentions that the return of a man named Shiranami could restore the clan. Determined, Naruto vows to search for Shiranami within two days. Unbeknownst to them, the very man they seek is actually pursuing the forbidden jutsu for himself. Meanwhile, Utakata reflects on whether Tsurugi’s claims about his master are true.
