"Uchiha Senyo."
After Senyo gave his name, everyone present looked utterly bewildered.
Only Shikamaru frowned and pondered for a moment. "You're the head of the Uchiha Clan!?"
Senyo was somewhat surprised that Shikamaru knew of him. "Naruto mentioned me to you?"
Shikamaru nodded. "That's right. Naruto told me about you."
"What are you doing here? Why are you standing with Boruto?"

"Ughhh!" A large number of Karma markings appeared across Kawaki's body.
Kawaki felt an endless stream of power surge through his entire body.

Kawaki still could not move an inch.
Seeing Kawaki defeated in a single move, Shikamaru's expression darkened. He formed a hand seal. "Let Kawaki go!"
Countless shadows extended from beneath Shikamaru's feet.
When those shadows touched Senyo's shadow, Shikamaru breathed a sigh of
