Chapter 335 Empty

early morning

Boruto opened his eyes.

[…Morning…]

He sat up.

[There is a mission today...]

Screen turn

Hinata's questioning voice was heard from Naruto's house.

【Where is the meeting place? 】

Boruto seemed to have something stuffed in his mouth.

[Hmm... Konoha's main gate. ]

Hinata warned: [Be careful not to be late. ]

Not long after.

Boruto looked at Himawari and Hinata who were standing at the door.

【Then I'm going out. 】

Sunflower smiled sweetly and said: [Be careful on the road! ]

Iwagakure

Deidara, who was in a depressed mood, couldn't help but complain.

"What kind of danger could there be on the road? You can't possibly faint while walking and have your soul temporarily leave your body to see Wuming, right?"

Oonoki was about to slap him on the back of the head.

Then Deidara muttered again: "Why else is it called the Sunny Road?"

Oonoki's hands froze in mid-air, and his pupils trembled violently.

He thought...

Before Wuming died, he was still in pain because of his hatred for the ninja world.

So, Boruto won't give up until he convinces her? The content of the video later is that Boruto chases Wuming to Pure Land to preach and untie the knot in his heart?

Thinking of Naruto's obsession with Sasuke...

hiss……

Reasonable.

Konoha Village entrance

Konohamaru looked at the three students in front of him and said: [It's been a long time since we've gathered like this. ]

Sarada said: [Because Mr. Konohamaru is also running around to deal with Zero's aftermath.]

Konohamaru spread his hands and complained: [Yeah... I'm super tired...]

Sarada: [Thank you for your hard work...]

Mitsuki asked: […So what is today’s mission? ]

Konohamaru said: [Yes. Looking for a pet.]

Sarada exclaimed: [Uh... again? Did you do the same task last time? ]

Konohamaru explained: [Due to the recent unrest, many pets were lost in the panic. Some have not been found yet, so we are going to search for and capture them today.]

Mitsuki turned to look at Boruto: [It seems like this time was also very hard. Boruto. ]

【Boruto? 】

Mitsuki called out again.

Boruto came back to his senses: [Huh? Ah, ah~ uh, what did you just say? ]

……

Ninja World

"Boruto hasn't gotten over his sadness yet... But what a coincidence, I haven't gotten over it either... Woohoo... My Sasuke in women's clothing..."

"The mission from Konoha Village... is too easy. Their rewards are so easy to earn."

"This time Boruto didn't stand in the middle of the three. I thought he was always the backbone."

Konohamaru looked at Boruto: [Hey... are you listening to me? I haven't been on a mission for a long time. You're really worrying! ]

Boruto said confidently: [No problem! I will do it when it’s time! ]

Screen turn

It's still the entrance to Konoha Village.

Konohamaru said: [Okay. This completes the mission.]

Mitsuki looked at Boruto and said: [It will take longer than I thought. 】

Boruto was in low spirits.

[Sorry, it’s all because I’m so lame…]

Sarada looked at him and asked: [Are you unmotivated? Do you know how many times you failed just now? ]

[I know everything. I will definitely return the favor next time.]

Sarada was helpless: […That’s not what I meant.]

Boruto looked up at Konohamaru who was holding a cat and said, "Teacher Konohamaru, can we go home today?"

Konohamaru: [Well, it seems there are no additional quests...]

Boruto said: [Then let's disband here. Thank you for your hard work. ]

After saying that, he left immediately.

[Ah, wait a minute.] Sarada hurriedly chased after him.

Mitsuki said: [Goodbye, Mr. Konohamaru.]

【Um……】

As soon as he finished speaking, Mitsuki quickly chased in the direction of Boruto.

He slowed down his pace only when he reached Boruto.

After the three of them walked for a while, Sarada looked at Boruto who was standing in the middle.

【Hey, Boruto. 】

【What's the matter? 】

The three of them stopped.

[You haven't been in good spirits for a while. Are you still thinking about Wuming? ]

Boruto sighed.

Sarada: [As expected...]

Boruto: [It doesn't matter... What I want is my own business. ]

[But you made mistakes in the mission because of this, and caused us a lot of trouble. ]

Boruto: […I’ve already apologized…]

[Boruto... Tell us about your troubles! Maybe it will make you feel better... We are in the same class, right? ]

Screen turn

Sarada and Boruto found a long wooden chair and sat down.

Mitsuki stood in front of Boruto, and Sarada also turned sideways and looked at Boruto.

Boruto looked at the wooden floor beneath his feet and spoke slowly.

[Ever since the battle with Merujin, I have been thinking about what I should do to save Wuming...]

Sarada said: [I heard about the report at that time...]

Mitsuki also said: [Judging from the situation at that time, it was difficult to save her, right? At that time, not only were the Seventh Generation and Uncle Sasuke exhausted, but you were also covered in wounds, right? And the confinement spell hairband they made seemed to be a great burden to the user. ]

Boruto said: [Your investigation is really thorough. ]

Mitsuki said: [I just heard about the information about the confinement spell from my relatives.]

Ninja World

"If I hadn't heard Mitsuki's explanation, I wouldn't have known that thing had a burden. I just thought it was simply manipulating others."

"No wonder Wuming said she knew her body..."

"Ahh! I'm so angry! I must execute Tekusase!"

"Orochimaru is still the best."

"Orochimaru's image in my mind has been infinitely elevated! His personality charm is off the charts, his strength is strong, and he seems to know a lot of scientific research knowledge... Orochimaru's departure from Konoha is definitely a loss for Konoha. How much scientific researchers can do is obvious to all."

Boruto looked down at his hands, blaming himself: [But even so... I still kept wondering if there was any way to save her. So my mind was in a mess and I couldn't focus on anything... I'm so useless...]

[Boruto…]

After whispering softly, Sarada changed the subject and said, "Ah. Boruto...it's been a while since the three of us played Ninja Heroes together. Let's play!"

【……Um? 】

[From your looks, you probably haven't been up there lately, right? Let's play together, maybe it will help change our mood. ]

【But……】

Before he could continue, Sarada said, "Just playing your favorite game will help you relax a little."

After that, she looked at Mitsuki: [Right? Mitsuki is also okay, right?! ]

Mitsuki nodded: [Yes.]

[That's it, let's meet in the game later! See you later! ]

After saying that, Sarada turned around and ran away, as if she was afraid that Boruto would refuse.

[So tough...]

Mitsuki looked at him and said: [Sarada is also worried about you. ]

[I know…]

[…Ninja hero…]
