The movie is based on Kazuhisa Sakaguchi's 2013 novel “Nintama Rantaro: The Dokutake Ninja Team’s Strongest Strategist” and illustrated by Soubee Amako. The story centers on Rantaro's teacher Hansuke Doi losing a battle against Sonnamon and Zatto Konnamon becoming a teacher at Ninjutsu Academy.
At the Ninjutsu Academy, Doi teaches young ninjas known as "Nintama." One day, he goes out for a battle against a ninja from the rival clan, but vanishes without a trace. The Nintamas worry for Doi's safety, especially Kirimaru, a war orphan who lives with him.
At the same time, the Academy receives troubling news that their rivals at Dokutake Castle may be scheming something. The older ninjas infiltrate the castle to investigate, but they are stopped by Tenki, whose face is identical to Doi.
Bonds of friendship get tested as the Ninjutsu Academy students face their most powerful enemy yet. Will Rantarō, Kirimaru, Shinbe and the others be able to rescue Doi-sensei?
