The young generation of shinobi are taking their chunin exams, but it seems like it's not meant to continue. Not only did Naruto catch his son cheating in the final test, there is also threat looming. What's going to happen in "Boruto" Chapter 5?
In Chapter 4 of the manga, Shikamaru reminds Naruto that the kids passed the first two tests in the chunin exams and reminds the busy seventh Hokage that "it's important." This prompts Naruto to pay his son a visit in his room to congratulate him, something that the young Uzumaki does not really appreciate - because he is hiding a wrist band under his sleeve.
In the third test, spectators gather in the arena to watch participants show off their skills in face-to-face combat. The Seventh is also there and, just like the other parents, it seems he could not be more proud of his son's performance.
Boruto faces off with Shikamaru's son Shikadai and gets trapped in his shadow. But when the young Uzumaki makes a huge number of clones akin to his father's own abilities, the young Nara gives up, not so different from his own dad.
However, Naruto realizes that something is wrong. When the round finishes and is announced that Boruto will advance to the next round, the Seventh goes to his son, takes his arm, and sees him wearing a banned device. The Kote, or a science ninja weapon, allows a user to use ninja techniques without using chakra. In short, his son cheated and he's no happy about it.
Meanwhile, Sasuke, who is with a team deciphering and analyzing a scroll that they previously found, is having a bad feeling. He suddenly says that the chunin exams should be stopped. Some distance away, two strangers are heading straight for Konoha, and it seems that they are coming for the Fox inside Naruto.
"Boruto" Chapter 5 is likely to show how Naruto will address his son's dishonesty. There are speculations that the Hokage will humiliate the young genin in front of everyone, and this could result in Boruto resenting his father even more. There are also guesses that the whole team will be prevented from moving forward with the exams.
With Sasuke trying to stop the exams, will Boruto and his friends be spared the humiliation before it happens? Fans will find out in "Boruto" Chapter 5.
