After episode 17 of the Boruto saga around the rather disappointing character of Sarada , episode 18 shows us how Naruto becomes Hokage . 👑 Although this episode does not follow the main plot, this transitional episode is much more interesting than the previous one! Within this short break, the Boruto saga invites us to immerse ourselves in an important moment in the life of the next Hokage, Naruto.
Indeed, this episode actually relates the day of the coronation ceremony of the protagonist Naruto . This episode 🎞️ tells the story that had already been shown to us previously in the OAV preceding the release of the film Boruto: Naruto the Movie . Although this episode is a carbon copy of the OAV flashback ⚡, this time we have the chance to see a moment of complicity between Naruto and his son, Boruto.
But it was also the perfect opportunity for the Boruto Saga to confirm Naruto's limitless love for Japanese noodles, ramen . 🍜 We see during the episode that the small restaurant where Naruto spent his time had had the opportunity to develop over the years. It is now gigantic and modern.
How did Naruto become Hokage?
Naruto is by far the most emblematic character of his series, a joyful character 😀 and determined to accomplish his greatest dream, he made friends with a lot of ninjas from different countries around the world. In search of recognition since a young age, his ambition will allow him to quickly reach the heights of his art in order to be able to defend his village and the world from numerous invaders.
This ambition will allow him to obtain both recognition from the members of his Konoha village 🔥 as well as from other countries. He is a major player like his friend Sasuke Uchiha in the last greatest Shinobi wars. It is also all his feats that will allow him to realize his dream and become the Hokage of the village of Konoha and at the same time rally other countries to his cause.
The day Naruto became Hokage
On the morning of Naruto's inauguration as Hokage , he seems to have trouble waking up. This is why his wife Hinata asks her children, Boruto and Himawari, to go wake up their father. Cute Himawari fails, as Boruto literally jumps on her. During breakfast at the table, Hinata says that she will go get her cape before the ceremony in case it is not finished. Naruto also remembers that Kakashi's cape was not finished in time when he became Hokage. Hinata 🧿 asks Naruto to quickly go to the ceremony location with the children while she leaves to quickly get her husband's cape.
Arriving and finding that Naruto still hasn't arrived, Hinata rushes home. Naruto is ready to leave, but Boruto and Himawari argue over a stuffed panda that Himawari absolutely wants to take with her, however, Boruto seems quite embarrassed that his sister is seen with a stuffed animal in front of the villagers. As they tug at each other, the panda ends up tearing itself in two. Angry, Himawari awakens his Byakugan and attacks a terrified Boruto. Confused and alarmed, Naruto attempts to stop the fight, but is struck by Himawari's finger in the abdomen, and causes a painful reaction that knocks Naruto unconscious.
At the ceremony, Sarada is in the audience with her mother and friends, and meets Chōchō, who hopes the event will be over soon. Sarada silently wonders why the Hokage is taking so long to appear. Kakashi tells Shikamaru that they can't wait any longer and decides to have Konohamaru play the role of Naruto. 🦊 As the inauguration begins, Sakura expresses her pride in seeing Naruto achieve his dream, while Iruka states that Naruto will face difficult times.
At the Uzumaki residence, Hinata finds Naruto unconscious! All his chakra points were touched by his daughter Himawari, which had the effect of leaving him unconscious for the rest of the day. Hinata then wonders who could have done such a thing. Boruto hides in a closet from his sister, who enters the room with a murderous look and asks him if he is playing hide and seek with her. Just when it seems Himawari has found him, Boruto screams in fear! 😱 Not thinking that his sister possessed such strength at such a young age.
