"Mr. Sasuke, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry about it. Since they've already shown goodwill, all we need to do is protect Naruto."
"Oh well."
The two reached a consensus.
"The bait has been placed; now we just need to wait for the fish to bite."
Orochimaru stood at a distance, watching Sasuke and Boruto's figures gradually disappear into the distance.
"Karot, are you confident?"
After all, they were enemies of the same race as the Sage of Six Paths, so Orochimaru couldn't be too cautious.
"You should be asking if he can withstand one of my punches."
Hearing Karot's confident words, Orochimaru felt relieved.
"What do you think about us taking Sasuke's Rinnegan in the future?"
"That's the legendary Eye of the Immortal, and it's so close to us."
As expected of the Cold Lord- Orochimaru! Every word he utters is something that will grab your attention.
"Let's forget about it, Orochimaru- senpai. After all, if the bait is too weak, the fish won't have any interest in performing."
"That's right. When the snipe and the clam fight, we can seize the opportunity to profit from the conflict."
Sasuke and Boruto entered Konoha as traveling entertainers.
"Mr. Sasuke, Konoha's prosperity now is comparable to what it was back then!"
Boruto couldn't help but compare the current Konoha with the Konoha he belonged to, and the result was that there wasn't much difference.
"Yes! It's so prosperous!"
While Sasuke and Naruto were strolling around, they were stopped.
"We received a tip that you two have been acting suspiciously, asking all sorts of questions. What are you planning to do in Konoha?"
The leader of the Uchiha clan asked.
"You're from the Uchiha Clan? How is that possible?"
Sasuke asked in surprise, "At this point in time, shouldn't the Uchiha Clan have been wiped out?"
Boruto noticed Sasuke's shock and quickly grabbed Sasuke's sleeve to bring Sasuke back to his senses. He then answered the Police Force's questions.
"We're both traveling entertainers, and this is the first time we've visited such a prosperous village. We couldn't contain our curiosity, so we asked quite a few questions. We're really sorry!"
"Of course, under the Lord Hokage Konoha developing in a positive direction. Your decision to come here to perform is perfectly reasonable."
"That's great! As you can see, my brother and I are often bullied when we perform for money. Look, my brother's arm was broken."
After saying this, Boruto's eyes were filled with tears, and he seemed ready to cry at any moment.
"This is outrageous! Don't worry, you can perform freely in our village. No one will be able to bully you. The Konoha Police Force will not tolerate crime."
Boruto's pitiful appearance prevented the Police Force from digging too deep into their past. After a brief questioning, they left.
"Sasuke- san, what happened to you just now? Why did your emotions change so drastically?"
"Does the fact that members of the Uchiha Clan are still working in the Police Force mean that the Uchiha Clan was not wiped out? Does that mean my father and mother are still alive?"
Sasuke ignored Boruto's question and ran straight towards the Uchiha Clan's territory, which he remembered.
"Mr. Sasuke."
Boruto couldn't help but call out Sasuke's name.
"Sasuke, someone is calling you."
Today happened to be the day Naruto and Sasuke returned from their training together, and they heard Boruto call Sasuke's name.
"Huh? Who are you? I don't recognize you."
Sasuke stared at Boruto for a long time but still couldn't figure out who he was.
"Um, I heard that there's a genius named Sasuke in the Uchiha clan of Konoha. That's why I couldn't help but call out when I saw you. You're my idol, Mr. Sasuke!"
Boruto lies so easily; he doesn't need any serious thought.
"Yeah?"
Although Sasuke his best to suppress the smile on his face, he was clearly not shrewd enough, and it was seen through at a glance.
"Sasuke, you have fans now!"
Naruto was very happy for his friend. He was thinking to himself...
"When will I be able to have my own fans like Sasuke?!"
"Naruto, keep it down, you don't need to shout so loudly."
When Sasuke saw Naruto acting so loudly, Sasuke to maintain his cool and aloof image.
"What? This person in front of me is my own father?"
Boruto looked at his father when he was young, and he was completely different from the father he remembered!
What are you doing following us?
Naruto noticed Boruto following him and Sasuke around and asked him a question.
"I've gotten separated from my family. I don't know where to look for them. You two are the only two people I know in Konoha."
"The two of us will help you find it."
Naruto spoke directly, saying that Naruto couldn't stand idly by when others were in trouble.
Although Sasuke didn't say anything, his choice to stand next to Naruto already spoke volumes.
"Really? That's great!"
"What do your family members look like? Otherwise, we won't know and can't help you!"
Sasuke wasn't like Naruto, a clueless and naive guy who blindly planned to search for someone without knowing anything.
"It's very simple."
Boruto pulled out a paintbrush and paper from his pocket, and after a few strokes, a strange-looking portrait was completed.
"That's what it looks like."
Boruto looked quite pleased with himself after finishing the drawing.
"Sasuke, I feel like punching someone after seeing this."
"Um."
At this moment, Naruto and Sasuke were remarkably in agreement: Boruto drawing the portrait like this was an insult to the paper.
"No, no, no."
Boruto only started to get a little nervous when he saw Naruto roll up his sleeves and walk towards him.
"I was just joking. Now is the time to witness a miracle."
Boruto then drew what Naruto would look like as an adult on the ground.
"This person looks so familiar!"
Naruto looked at the portrait and said.
"Yes! I feel like I've seen it somewhere before too."
"Really? You two are really familiar with each other?"
Boruto asked excitedly.
"If you are familiar with him, then you must have seen him before."
"Yes, Sasuke. We're sure we've seen this person somewhere before."
"We'll split up and meet here in the evening."
"Sasuke, let's have a contest to see who finds it first!"
"I won't lose."
Sasuke finished speaking, he set off first.
"Sasuke, you're cheating!"
Not to be outdone, Naruto then set off in the opposite direction.
"We finally managed to fool them."
Boruto hadn't expected that he would accidentally draw what Naruto would look like as an adult. Luckily, he cleverly covered it up.
"The drawing is indeed quite lifelike."
Karot picked up the portrait from the ground and said.
"It's you?"
Boruto jumped up from the ground, looking at Karot with a tense expression. This person appeared and disappeared without a trace. He wondered what his purpose was.
