The anime adaptation of "Naruto Gaiden" arc is just around the corner.
The official website of "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" has confirmed that the anime series will enter the said arc sometime in August.
The "Naruto Gaiden" arc will cover Masashi Kishimoto's mini manga series called "Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring." The story takes place 15 years after the Fourth Shinobi World War, and focuses on Sarada Uchiha as she explores the mystery surrounding her birth.
It has been a long time since Sarada's birth, but she has never seen her biological father, Sasuke. Due to this, she will start questioning her identity and will even openly question the validity of her parents' marriage.
After some hesitation, Sarada decides to find Sasuke to personally ask him about her birth. But things will take a turn for the worse when she becomes the target of a dangerous cult due to the lineage she shares with her father. The said cult is headed by Shin Uchiha, a former follower and test subject of Orochimaru.
