Chapter 397 Jokes
The next day
A family of four walked out of their home.
[It’s been a long time since we went out as a family. 】
Himawari, who was holding Shukaku, asked: [You want to take Shukaku with you, right? ]
Naruto said: [Yes, we can’t just leave it at home. ]
The little jar in Sunflower's arms snorted: [There's nothing I can do. I'll just go with you guys.]
Boruto was surprised and asked: [Huh? Shukaku, why aren't you upset? ]
"Maybe this time I'll have a chance to ask her how she managed to knock Jiu Lama unconscious."
Thinking of this, Shukaku's lips curled up.
'There will be no shortage of jokes to make fun of the fox anytime soon.'
Hinata looked at the two children and asked: [Did you forget to bring anything? ]
They both said in unison: [No.]

Himawari came to the outside of a doll shop and pointed at the Shukaku doll in the glass and smiled.
Shukaku was speechless.
Can’t say it’s very similar…
It's exactly the same.

Himawari picked up the Naruto roll from her bowl and handed it to Shukaku.

Inside Senju Park
Boruto, Himawari, and Hinata sat on the bench, looking at Naruto sleeping on the lawn in front of them.
Boruto sighed: [Really, it's always like this. ]
Himawari looked at Boruto: [He is too tired, let him sleep for a while. ]
Hinata said apologetically: [I'm sorry, both of you.]
[It's okay, go over there and take a look, Sunflower. ]
[Okay, brother.]
Shukaku thought to himself.
'After observing her for a while, I found that she is just an ordinary child, nothing special.'
'Did the fox really give this little girl a setback?'
"Why don't you just ask directly..."

"No need to ask, it's true, I can testify."
“It’s so cozy.”
"I envy you and I really want to live in a village like this."
"It's a rare day off, but you still sleep so much?"
"Sure enough, mental exhaustion is the real exhaustion. The Hokage has too much work to do."
"It's so funny to see Shukaku looking at his own doll with a speechless face. I believe it would be very popular if it were sold in real life."
"It turns out that the tailed beasts are so cute, tsundere and dark. I love the little raccoon cat so much!"

【Hey, let me tell you something.】
Himawari stopped when she heard Shukaku's words.
Shukaku said with a serious face: [There is a secret mission that only you can complete. ]
【Task?】
Shukaku whispered: [Can you leave Boruto and stay alone for a while? ]
【clear. 】
After saying that, Himawari walked behind Boruto, who had just bought the tricolor meatballs and was about to eat them.
[Brother, I'm going to the bathroom. ]
Boruto was stunned, but didn't think much about it: [Oh, is it okay to go alone? ]

"It's a bit of a problem. How about half of us go?"
"Hahaha, I always thought Boruto was very smart, but I didn't expect that he would be fooled by this excuse twice?"
"Himawari really loves Shukaku, and she actually lied to her brother for him."

Kyuubi would not let go of the opportunity once it got one.
"You stinky raccoon cat, you have led the children astray. Even Sunflower has learned to lie. You are really embarrassing for the tailed beasts!"
I, Jiu Lama, am ashamed of you!

[I am no longer a child, and Shukaku is still with me. ]
Shukaku urged: [Let’s go! ]
Sunflower responded and ran in one direction.
Boruto looked at her back with a confused look on his face.
[How did their relationship become so good? ]
Screen turn
[What? So you don’t remember it either?]
Sunflower hugged her knees and looked at Shukaku standing on the stone: [Yeah. I only remember that my father slept very soundly on the day of the inauguration ceremony. I can't remember what happened at that time. ]
[No way, then wouldn't I have worked in vain? If I had known this, I wouldn't have come here on purpose.]
Sunflower asked cautiously: [Shou Ning, are you unhappy? ]
Shukaku was stunned and two drops of sweat appeared on his face.
It tilted its head to one side: [Yes! I am a tailed beast! I am nothing like a human!]
Sunflower said sadly: [Shou Ning...]
Shukaku clenched his fists and shouted at her: [My name is not Shuryeon either! It’s Shukaku! I’m upset! Leave me alone for a while!]
Then it jumped off the stone, tucked its body back into the jar, and rolled under the shade of the tree.
【I slept!】

"When it rolls, it looks like a turtle..."
"Cats are fickle indeed. They can change their faces at any time."
"Even though he has lived for so many years, Shukaku's personality is like that of a child."

In front of the meatball shop
Boruto heard the noise and turned around to see Himawari, who looked a little down.
[Himawara. ...Huh? Where's Shukaku? ]
the other side
Under the shade.
[Humph! Living in the human world really doesn't suit my personality. ]
Shukaku yawned.
[I’m really starting to feel sleepy.]
As it said this, it closed the lid with its hands and began to snore.
not long
Two sanitation workers were passing by and saw the jar.
【Who left such a big piece of garbage here? 】
[We are sending the waste to the scrap metal processing station, so let's put them in together. ]

Chiyo couldn't help laughing.
"Shukaku is actually being treated as trash and sent to a scrap metal processing station!"
“…picked it up? Really picked it up? Hahaha!”
Luo Sha's mouth twitched.
"I hope nothing happens."
After all, it is their Sand Village's tailed beast...
If an accident happens, it will definitely be a loss for them, Sunagakure.
A certain raccoon cat screamed, "Ah--Dame!"
If it were taken away as garbage, it would be a disgrace to the beast!

Himawari and Boruto came under the tree.
[Shou-nyeo is missing. He was sleeping here...]
[Once that guy falls asleep, it's hard to wake him up.]
After saying that, Boruto saw the sanitation workers who were dealing with garbage not far away.
He walked over and said, "Excuse me."
The sanitation worker who was collecting the garbage looked at him: [What's the matter? ]
Boruto asked: [Have you seen an old tea kettle around here? ]
[Oh. That has been taken away and processed.]

Shukaku: !!!
The other tailed beasts: Hahahaha…hahahaha…
