Ep. 186: Boruto outsmarts Ao using tools while protecting his unconscious teammates
Aired on February 14, 2021
Mitsuki, Sarada, and Konohamaru corner Ao, but Boruto tricks him into using a chakra-draining Scientific Ninja Tool. Ao counters with Mirror Drones that fire powerful projectiles, knocking Konohamaru unconscious. Boruto orders Sarada and Mitsuki to guard Konohamaru and Katasuke, then uses Paper Bombs to defeat the drones and Ao alone. Rather than killing Ao to avenge Mugino, Boruto makes him realize the consequences of his actions, leaving Ao staring at the sky. As Team 7 prepares to celebrate, Ao spots Koji Kashin standing atop the ruins above him, alerting the Leaf ninja to their presence.
