Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Lost Tower

In a mission assigned by the village of Konoha, Naruto Uzumaki must capture Mukade, a renegade ninja known for his extraordinary abilities. The mission takes him to an ancient and glorious historical site known as "Ouran," whose ruins hold both secrets and dangers. After a fierce confrontation, Naruto manages to corner Mukade, who reveals his true purpose: to unleash the power of a dormant ley line hidden deep within the ruins. This mystical power, capable of altering the course of time, is unleashed by Mukade, creating a blinding light that envelops Naruto.

What initially seems like a common attack turns out to be far more dangerous than Naruto had anticipated. The energy released by the renegade affects Naruto in an unexpected way, sending him back in time, 20 years before the main events of the series. In this new and mysterious context, Naruto finds himself transported to a distant past, where circumstances are completely different from what he knows. Disoriented and confused by the time travel, he wakes up in a Konoha that has yet to be marked by the dramatic events that would change his destiny and that of his friends.

It is here that Naruto encounters a key figure in the village's history: the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. This meeting marks a crucial point in the narrative, as Minato, who is considered a legend among the people of Konoha, is also a mysterious figure to Naruto, given that his image was always surrounded by rumors and stories. The interaction between Naruto and Minato opens a range of emotions and tensions, as although Naruto is aware of his legacy as the son of the Fourth Hokage, he is not prepared to face the complexities of this encounter in the past.

As Naruto tries to find a way back to his time, he must make difficult decisions, facing not only the threats of that era but also the emotions that arise from being so close to his father. The mission to capture Mukade becomes a much deeper and more personal adventure, full of discoveries that will change his life forever.
