Ryoki. What are you doing, Shikidai? Those two are about to get away.

Yeah, I'm aware of that.

Now that we're on this train, it's a direct line to the other side of the

border. I wouldn't be so sure.

Checkmate.

Shikidai.

Kimi to

Ryogi, would you just snap out of it already?

Damn, seriously?

You really don't give up easily.

Did you do this? You put these stupid ideas into his head.

That doesn't even matter anymore.

Do you think you can save desperate people with nothing more than your

childishly naive ideals?

The reality of the situation isn't that simple.

And now you know how things work. So accept the truth, be a good kid, and go

back home.

You think that lame speech is going to change our minds?

Lame? I've seen your true character with my own eyes. You're made of nothing but

filthy lies.

Ryogi, why do you go so far to protect this guy?

I'd go as far as I have to.

Because this man once saved my life.

I understand now, but that's still no reason to become a thief.

Is this really the kind of life you had hoped for?

Life I hoped for?

What a question.

So typical of the people in this village. Your lives have been so easy.

In this world, you just have to accept the role that you were cast to play.

It's just another way of living.

Know what?

I think you're straining to fit into a mold that's too tight.

All those hours we spent playing shogi, you were lying the whole time?

That wasn't real. It was just an act so I could get close to you and gain your

trust. Why is it so hard for you to get that?

My head.

What's wrong, Ryogi? Are you okay?

Shut up. I don't want to talk to you anymore.

Ryogi, use it now.

Yes.

I style Crystal Wall.

What?

Be careful. This isn't an ordinary ice style.

What is this?

Well done, Ryogi.

It hurts so much.

Calm down, Ryougi.

Relax. You look terrible right now.

Damn it. What do we do, Boruto?

Hey, did you hear me, Boruto?

You're that guy!

Huh?

How did you get in here?

What do you think you're doing?

What's gotten into you, Boruto?

Tell me where you put Shikidai.

Is he caught in a Kenjutsu?

I get it. The mirror.

No way in hell I'm going to stand around and get ducked into a mold that's too

tight.

I'm sorry.

I just got a little confused.

Did you get that from the black -haired kid?

I see how it is.

Between you two.

I don't like what you're implying.

That guy doesn't mean anything at all to me.

Then it won't be a problem for you to prove it by getting rid of that brat.

I'm gonna go up front and check on things.

I understand, sir.

Hold on.

Let me take a look at your wound.

We're gonna need to patch you up quickly.

All right.

You need to calm down, Boruto.

That was a really close call.

Damn it, let me go!

Tell me who the hell you are!

Ah, man.

Just how weak are you to genjutsu?

Release!

Shikidai?

Was I by any chance just controlled by a genjutsu?

That certainly seems that way.

I see.

If you can touch and pass chakra through the affected person, you can cancel a

genjutsu. When I was little, Mirai constantly used me for her own

And she made real sure I knew how to release a genjutsu.

What's the big idea? That really hurt!

Shut up.

Just needed to even the score.

Once we get over that mountain, we'll be in safe range.

Yeah, you're right.

Why?

You think maybe Ryogi

is also being controlled by a Genjutsu?

There's a high possibility of that.

We can't get involved even if we stumble onto something.

We have to report it to someone ranked Chunin or higher.

That's standard practice for us Genin, right?

Hmm? Why say that now?

You should know.

It's okay if you decide not to stick around with this good -for -nothing rule

-breaker.

Shikidai, you always go by the book and avoid getting involved.

Yet here you are, sticking your nose into something that's bound to become a

real drag.

Come on, you know I can't turn down something this fun.

You're crazy, you know that?

Okay.

I'm gonna punch Ryogi next. Might knock some sense into him.

I'll owe you one after this.

Next time they come out with a new burger, it's on you.

Don't get too carried away.

Oh, man.

It's just Ryogi in there. You think the boss escaped already?

I didn't sense the thunder train slowing down.

My guess is he's still got to be on board.

I thought you wanted us to stop Ryogi. If we're right and he's under a

genjutsu... Then we've got to get his boss first.

I won't let you go.

Boruto, go on ahead and watch out for any mirrors.

I got this one.

Hold it!

I'm the only opponent you've got now.

Do your job and take care of those pests back there, Ryogi.

Huh?

Let go of that lever.

He's using you. And once you've served your purpose, he'll cast you aside.

I'm sure you've already figured that much out yourself.

Even if you're right, it's still my responsibility to protect him. You like

living like that? Aren't you tired of this life yet? I know.

How about we go back to that bench and play some shogi?

Yeah.

And check a pawn.

The pawn always protects the king.

What are you saying?

I owe him for saving me.

The only way to repay him is with more life!

What are you doing here?

You are still alive.

How dare you?

How dare you kill my mom and dad?

The two of us should have a conversation and talk this out.

That sounds good. You can tell me everything back at the village.

How about teaming up with me instead?

There'll be no end of buyers for what I've got.

If we're smart about selling it, we'll both be ridiculously rich.

You would disgust any noble thief.

Okay, then. Fine. I suppose I lose.

So you just want this stuff back, right?

I'm sorry.

I messed up.

Damn it! You almost got me, you little brat.

Dad.

Mom.

I'm so sorry I couldn't protect you back then.

Once I rewrote his childhood memory, he became my pawn. And then he was willing

to do anything in the world for me.

Stop it, Ryogi. If you use too much chakra, you're going to tear yourself

Now what?

I can't even get close enough to touch him.

Ryogi, do you remember what happened when we first met?

You showed up out of nowhere and interrupted me. Yet you still put up

around yourself.

Never letting anyone get close to you is just a bad habit, Ryogi.

I'm the last person who should talk about that.

You should take a look at yourself.

You're turning into a monster.

Is that really the kind of figure you want to be?

I'm a boss.

Boruto. You're in a tough spot.

So what now?

I'll strike a deal with you for a juice, a new burger, and some fried soup.

That sounds like a real bargain.

Your pawn sounded so cool at the time. It was all to avenge my parents.

What a joke, huh?

I have nothing left now.

I gripe a lot.

I complain about everything being a drag, even though I've spent my whole

in this peaceful village.

I've never had it bad.

I can't imagine your past or understand how tough it was.

I don't have a clue about that.

But it's gonna work out.

What does that mean?

Do you really know things are gonna work out, Shikidai?

Not really.

It's just... I think things will work out.

Didn't I tell you?

The thing about pawns is you decide what they are.

And then anything is possible.

Damn it.

He was right in our grasp and he still got away.

It's all over then.

What was that?

And now I can say goodbye to a life of small -time robbery.

I've got a one -way ticket to all the luxury I want. To the good life.

Are

you

the...

Is it really over?

Thank you, young lord, for bringing it back.

Oh, come on. You don't have to cry about it just because I got it back for you.

Oh, I'm not crying about that.

I'm just overwhelmed because society finally acknowledged that this

ninja tool is so valuable, it's worth trying to steal.

Okay.

What is it, anyway?

What's the scientific ninja tool do?

I'll tell you. This is a new power that has the potential to change history.

Hmm?

Young lord, this tool was developed to be used by exceptional young shinobi

yourself.

What do you mean?

What's up?

You waiting for him again today?

Yeah, kinda.

When does Ryogi get out? How long will he be stuck in there?

Who knows?

Looks like we've seen the end of the Byakuya gang.

That's true. Seems like Lord Seventh took care of it himself.

Yeah. It sure seems like it.

It's not right. If he was planning to swoop in, he should have let us know.

Don't trash talk him.

In the end, Lord Seventh was the one who made everything right.

They were too much to handle for you and me.

Missions can be pretty hard, huh?

More than I expected.

No kidding.

But little by little, we'll get better at them over time.

Even though it's a drag.

We'll figure it out one day.

The both of us will.

And Ryogi will too.

Seems like you've already changed a little yourself.

So, when do I get my free burger?

Oh yeah, I forgot all about that. What?

What a drag.

Thank you.
