A Ninjutsu Battle of the Sexes!

A Ninjutsu Battle of the Sexes! is the fourth episode of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations .

## Summary [ ]

Shino recruits the help of Konohamaru to teach his class about the Summoning Jutsu. Konohamaru summons a Toad much to the amazement of most of the students except Boruto . When accused of jealousy by Sarada , Boruto tries and fails to summon a creature since, as Shino explains to him and the class, he has not signed any contract with a summoning creature.

While they practice summoning shurikens instead, the class soon becomes divided as the girls argue with the boys over maturity. While Konohamaru and Shino ponder what to do about the constant outbreaks of infighting, the class almost breaks out into another boys vs. girls battle at lunch. Shino intervenes just in time and instead gives the two sides the task of playing capture the flag within the Academy while he assesses each one's strengths and weaknesses.

Things come to a head as both teams make their way to the rooftop: Boruto, who has stolen a scroll from the Academy once again attempts the Summoning Jutsu, intending to summon a small toad to scare the girls. Instead, an unknown creature appears and strikes at Chōchō , throwing her off the building. Boruto and some other students are able to catch her, but the beast sets its sights on them while they helplessly dangle from the roof. Konohamaru arrives in time to defeat the beast with his Rasengan and Sumire silently steals the flag winning the match for the girls. Later, Boruto apologizes for putting Chōchō's life in danger, prompting the girls to put a rain check on collecting their favor.

While they prepare to head home, Shino advises them that they first needed to clean up the now crumbling Academy building, while Konohamaru wonders how Boruto was able to pull off summon such a large creature in the first place. In the distance, a hidden figure looms over them all.
