The battle begins with Jūra ignoring Mitsuki and Araya, but paying attention to Sarada. Soon after, he speeds off to find Boruto, who prepares by throwing shurikens around rocks to activate his teleportation. Noticing the enemy's approach, Boruto anticipates the attack.
Teleportation technique challenges Jūra's raw power
Jūra launches a Tailed Beast Ball toward Boruto and Konohamaru, forcing Boruto to remove his ally from the line of attack. After rescuing him, he delivers Konohamaru to safety and returns to the offensive. A Rasengan to Jūra's back marks the hero's initial response. The technique, though powerful, is insufficient to knock down his opponent.
Boruto uses teleportation again to evade the attacks. Even so, Jūra expresses surprise at his opponent's agility. The fight intensifies with the realization that Boruto has mastered the Hiraishin no Jutsu, an instantaneous movement technique.
Meanwhile, Kashin Koji and Eida discuss the scenario for the confrontation. The conversation suggests that Boruto may not have a realistic chance of winning. Furthermore, the mystery surrounding the young ninja's source of information, who knows details about the thorn soul, also emerges.
Rasengan Uzuhiko becomes Boruto's last hope
Boruto believes the Uzuhiko Rasengan is his only effective option. However, Jūra uses Mokuton (wood element) to capture Boruto. Even though he tries to escape, he is struck and loses control of the katana. Jūra takes the opportunity to seize the weapon while Boruto remains immobilized.
At a crucial moment, Boruto activates Uzuhiko, releasing a powerful aura of wind that destroys the wooden prison. He teleports to the katana's location and attacks Jūra with the blow. The opponent falls to his knees, signaling the impact of the jutsu.
Despite the initial success, the situation quickly changes. Jūra manages to resist Uzuhiko, neutralizing the technique. Boruto shows despair as he realizes his trump card has failed. The final scene shows Jūra standing unharmed before a weakened Boruto.
