Kakashi Hatake leads Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, and Rock Lee on a mission to escort the extravagant Prince Michiru Tsuki and his spoiled son Hikaru to the prosperous Land of Moon after they return from a long trip around the world. Guarding the two high‑ranked figures is already difficult, but the prince’s impulsive decision to bring along an entire circus, especially a saber‑toothed tiger that Hikaru wants to own, throws the assignment into chaos. Just as the convoy appears to be on schedule, the arrival at the Land of Moon triggers an unexpected crisis: the greedy Chief Minister Shabadaba has seized control of the country.
