Ch. 761Seed of Heart-Trace
Boruto, Sarada, and Mitsuki discovered that a Boundary Guardian had protected the myriad dimensions from the Void for hundreds of millions of years. They quietly visited the fading guardian, and Boruto showed it that it no longer had to stand watch alone.
- Boruto found a fragment of Heart-Trace beyond the myriad dimensions, and Mitsuki identified it as a mark left by an ancient watcher.
- Sarada recognized the trace as a seed, and the elders revealed that the Boundary Guardian had shielded the newborn dimensions from the Void since their beginning.
- Boruto, Sarada, and Mitsuki traveled quietly to the Ruins of the Boundary Guardian and stopped far from the seed to honor its vigil.
- The Boundary Guardian responded to their quiet presence, and Sarada saw that its power was nearly spent as the dimensional barrier weakened.
- Boruto told his companions they did not need to repair the barrier, then offered the phantom a gentle smile that conveyed it deserved to be guarded.
