Okay, we should be safe this far in.

Man, what a haul!

There's nothing like robbing the Thunder Train, huh?

And even better is finding this perfect place to hide out. No one in town had

ever guessed we came here.

Yeah, this mining tunnel was abandoned ages ago. No one's gonna come in here

now. Man, you sure are a sly one, Buck.

Huh? Hey, wasn't there another one of you guys here just a second ago?

Huh? Yeah, you're right.

Where'd he go?

Hey, you down there?

to be a bodyguard mission, but not what kind.

Yes, who would have ever thought that we'd be guarding somebody's pet?

It sure was a surprise, huh? But now that it's all finished, I guess it

was a piece of cake.

Don't get too comfortable.

It's not always going to go so smoothly on missions, you know. You don't have to

tell me that.

Anyway, let's get something to eat.

Sarada, what do you feel like having?

Mitsuki, is there anywhere you want to go eat?

I'm happy to go wherever you want, Boruto.

Okay, then let's go to Thunderburger.

They just put some new stuff on the menu.

Hamburgers again?

Hey, look, check it out. There go those rookies from Team 7.

I heard their mission success rate's 100%. And they're younger than us.

I guess prodigies are different.

Well, that's to be expected, right?

Oh, I'm sorry. Did I hurt your feelings?

Yeah, we're just feeling a little jealous, that's all.

So just ignore us. Still, they must be pretty nice. I know. I wish I was the

Hokage's son.

I just don't understand them.

Look, don't let guys like that get to you, okay?

Don't worry, I don't.

It's just that... Just what?

I'm always being judged by my connection to my dad, and it bugs the hell out of

me.

Boruto, aren't we getting hamburgers?

Sorry, I've lost my appetite.

Who cares about the Hokage anyway?

Even back then.

Come on in.

Thank you for having us. And happy birthday to you, Boruto.

Thank you so much, Aunt Sakura.

So you came along too, huh?

Disappointed? Well, I only came along because Mom said that I had to.

Hey there.

It looks like you've made yourself at home. It's very fun.

This is my first birthday party.

Here's your cake, big brother.

Awesome. Thank you, Himawari. As I'd expect.

That's some cake.

I decorated the whole thing myself.

You did great, Himawari.

So where's Naruto today?

He said that he'd be home really soon.

Isn't that good news?

Yeah, right. Give me a break. I couldn't care less if my old man came home or

not.

The cake was really delicious.

Thanks. Oh, I'm so glad.

Right, Mom?

Your father.

He hasn't returned yet.

Hello?

What? My husband?

Yes.

I understand.

Boruto?

It was all just like I thought, that stupid old man.

Of course, it's not like I had my hopes up that he'd actually be here anyway.

There must have been an emergency that he couldn't put on hold.

I mean, he is the Hokage.

Oh, yeah, sure.

I guess whatever it was was so important that Lord Hokage couldn't help but

totally blow off my birthday.

Boruto.

Brother sure is late.

You're right.

I'm really sorry, Hinata.

I just got home. Are you okay, Hinata?

Yeah.

Except I... This is for him.

I really let him down.

So I thought I should at least get him a present.

But when I went to get one, I realized that I don't even know what kinds of

games he likes.

I know that deep down, the two of them care very deeply about each other.

Damn it, it makes me so mad.

You appear to be in quite a bad mood tonight.

Did something happen during a mission?

Whenever something happens, you come down here in order to clear your mind,

young lord.

No, it's nothing like that.

Hey, old man Katosky, do you think that grown -ups still think of me as a little

kid?

Hmm. No, I don't think that's the case. After all, I'm a grown -up, and I know

just how much skill you possess, young lord.

You do, huh?

I guess so, right?

Although... There may be others who don't think the same way.

I'm sure some are jealous of you, for example.

You could also say that they fear you and your talent.

You're saying that I make them nervous?

Yes, that's right.

That's why they can't appreciate your strength in an honest manner.

They make excuses like you're the Hokage's son and so forth.

Well, I mean, it's not like I'm the Hokage's son because I actually want to

you know?

Who needs a stupid dad like that who forgets his own kid's birthday anyway?

Well, eventually everyone will come to understand, and they'll see your true

power, young lord.

And when that time finally comes... When the time comes, huh?

Oh, man, I wish it could be that time now.

Right, young lord.

Well, here.

I'm sorry that it's late, but it's a birthday gift.

Naturally, I didn't forget your special day.

Oh, uh, thank you.

So what is it? Is it like a toy or something?

This one's very practical.

It may come in quite handy during your missions, so I hope you'll accept it.

It's a scientific ninja tool.

Hmm.

I'm home.

Welcome back, big brother.

Oh, hey. What are you doing, Hima?

Well, you see, it's for my birthday.

Daddy was too busy with work, so he couldn't make it to your birthday party,

remember?

I thought if I started doing this now, Daddy would be sure to come home for

mine. Hey, Ma.

Listen, who cares if that stupid old man doesn't show up to the party?

Mom and I will still be here to celebrate your birthday with you, and I

invite all my friends over as well.

Mm -hmm.

But still, I want Daddy to be here, too.

Hey, big brother.

Do you think Daddy's going to miss my birthday, too?

He won't be too busy to come home, will he?

No way.

That won't happen.

I promise you.

Don't you worry, Himawari. I swear to you that it won't go down that way.

I'll make sure that Dad comes home for your birthday.

Big Brother, really?

You bet. Don't worry.

Why did we have to meet so early this morning?

Okay, good. You're all here. All right, you three. This time around, our mission

is going to be capturing a group of thieves who robbed the Thunder Train.

So these guys just disappeared after they jumped off the train. Is that

There's a mining town near there, along with some abandoned mines that haven't

been used for ages.

Ah, I see. So the thieves could be hiding out inside of them.

How many thieves are there in the gang anyway?

Like 10 or 20?

What? Can't you read? It's right there in the report.

It says there are four of them. What? Seriously?

There are only four?

Why can't the townspeople handle it themselves?

Can't they just go and round up the thieves?

No, I'm afraid that's just not possible.

The mines are laid out in what's basically a giant maze.

The thieves could lie in wait to attack, so it's too dangerous for civilians.

And that's where our team's mission comes in, is that it? That's why we've

to go all the way out to the stick?

Catching thieves is cool and all, but it'd be way more exciting if they were a

big -time organization like the Byakuya gang.

What is up with you?

There's no such thing as big or small missions. Didn't you learn that back

during the whole incident with Mr. Haguruma?

Yeah, I know that.

But still, unless I'm able to do something big, people are never going to

acknowledge us.

In any event, we leave in one hour.

For now, you're dismissed.

Hmm. So another ruin that's connected to Kaguya Otsutsuki has been discovered?

That's right, and this makes the third one so far.

So what do you want to do?

I'm going to go and check it out myself, of course.

I really don't want to put any more on your plate, though.

But you don't get to decide that.

It was agreed on at the Five Kage Summit, remember?

Anything that involves the Otsutsuki clan is top secret.

I know. And there's no doubt why. Since Kaguya was able to build living weapons.

Like an army of White Zetsu to stop any threats.

Yeah.

It's been ten years now since all of that.

It's possible something even worse than White Zetsu was sleeping in there.

Anyway, look.

If we're going to protect the peace we've managed to build, we have to find

every ruin, check all of them, and crush any possible threats.

I get that, really.

But haven't you been working too hard lately?

You've been at home even less frequently than normal.

Well, that's... I heard about it from Hinata.

You missed Boruto's birthday the other day, right?

Yeah. I feel really bad for letting him down like that.

But... I'm the Hokage of the Leaf now.

Everyone in the village is part of my family that I have to protect.

It's Dad.

Hmm? Boruto.

Sarada, Mitsuki, you guys go on ahead.

I gotta talk to my dumb old man.

All right, Naruto.

I'm gonna go on ahead, too. Okay. Sorry.

Let's go, Sarada.

Listen,

Boruto. I didn't apologize to you well enough.

about your birthday the other day. Forget it.

You were super busy with all the Hokage business, right?

I never had very high hopes anyway.

Boruto, I... But listen up! You'd better be home for Himawari's birthday.

I honestly don't care if my stupid old man won't come home for my birthday, but

Himawari... She's still young and innocent, and she wants you there.

So promise me right now, you better come home for her.

Yeah, I promise.

Look, this is for real. If you break your words, then I'll never forgive you.

We're way out in the stick.

There's nothing but mountains out here. Listen, Boruto, can you stop saying

stuff like that?

Are you the ones from the Hidden Leaf?

That's right.

We're here to find and apprehend the robbers.

Actually, about that, the situation has changed quite a bit now.

Huh?

Who's there? That man is one of the robbers.

Wait a second. You went into the mine to capture him without waiting for us? No.

He came running out all by himself.

He was in a panic and made a huge commotion.

We questioned him, but couldn't make sense of what he said.

Hey, what happened to the rest of your gang?

It's all over.

They're dead. All dead.

They all died?

All of them.

All of them were...

Killed by that monster!

A

monster?

He's been like this all along, making no sense at all. He must have been scared

out of his wits.

Keep me safe.

Please, keep me safe!

Where's the mine that he ran out of?

I posted guards at the entrance. No one's gone inside yet.

It's not as though we completely believe his story, but his abject terror has

left us frightened of what's inside, too.

Understandably. All right, then. Our mission's changed. We need to go into

mine and find out just what happened there.

Hey, what exactly did you see in there?

He's coming for us.

The white one.

He's coming for all of us.

The white one.

So this is the place where it all went down?

I wonder what it really is, this white monster.

A white monster, huh?

What's the matter?

Oh, it's nothing.

It couldn't be.

Well, whatever.

Come on, let's just hurry up and deal with this, you guys.

Hey, hold up, Boruto. Don't just go taking off on your own.

They may be robbers, but if they're alive, rescuing them is a part of our

mission. This could be a life -or -death situation.

Yeah, I know that. That's all the more reason why we can't waste time.

Hey!

Seriously, what is with him?

This mine is pretty big.

It looks like it continues deep underground.

You're irritable today.

I mean, you know, even more irritable than you usually are.

No, I'm not. That isn't true at all.

By any chance, did something happen between you and Lord Hokage earlier this

morning? It's nothing like that.

Although if my dad weren't the way he is, everything would be way easier for

that's for sure.

Keep up, you two, or you'll be left behind.

Be right there, Sid.

Knock it off and grow up, will ya?

Well, sure, yeah. If everybody stopped treating me like a kid, maybe I would.

And it's not like I'm upset just for my own sake, either.

We're deep into the mine now.

Hey, come here.

What's up, Mitsuki?

Wait, is that... Is that...

One of the robbers?

And I found others down this passageway.

There were two more.

So that means this guy's entire gang was... It seems they were slashed with a

very sharp blade. The two I found were charred.

Almost as if they'd been struck by a bolt of electricity or something like

You think it was more than one ninja?

Well, I'm not sure, but there's a good chance of that.

But then why'd that guy keep going on about a white monster?

Maybe it's this, Boruto.

Huh? Look at these footprints right here.

Something came running at them from further in, and... That

footprint's huge.

Whatever made it must be huge, too.

Is that what killed all these men?

Well, if it is, then it's able to use multiple jutsu.

So further inside, there's a monster capable of doing stuff like this.

From here on, be prepared for battle.

Don't lose focus even for a second.

All of a sudden?

Is this a trap?

Just intended to lure us in?

Everyone, keep a close eye on your surroundings.

Damn it!

Where are they going to come at us from?

I'm fine. However, this thing...

What

is this?

Why is he here?

I don't know.

I don't know.
