[In the dim light of the cinema, the latest theatrical version of "Kamen Rider" is playing on the screen, and the dazzling special effects and fierce fighting sound effects fill the entire theater.]

[Boruto and Shikadai are squeezed into a double seat, sharing a huge bucket of popcorn.]

[Boruto's eyes gleamed as he watched, his mouth opened and closed silently with the protagonist's transformation sound effects, and his hands imitated the knight's kicking movements from time to time, almost knocking over the popcorn bucket in Shikadai's arms.]

["Hey, Boruto, please be quiet!" Shikadai complained in a low voice, nimbly dodged another "Invisible Hand", quickly grabbed a handful of popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely, "By the way, Mitsuki, why did it take so long to go to the bathroom? The movie is almost over."]

[As if in response to his question, a slender and quiet figure quietly returned to the empty seat next to him and sat down.]

["Mitsuki! Why did it take you so long? You missed the most exciting part of the collective transformation of villains!" Boruto immediately leaned over, holding a popcorn in his hand, and asked in a low voice.]

[Mitsuki showed a helpless smile on his pale face, "Sorry, Boruto. Father suddenly called me just now."]

["Oh, Uncle Orochimaru." Boruto nodded, not paying much attention, and his attention quickly returned to the big screen that was about to enter the climax of the decisive battle.]

[He bumped the arm of Shikadai next to him, staring at the protagonist on the screen who was being besieged by countless soldiers but still standing upright. His low voice was full of uncontrollable excitement:]

["Hey, Shikadai, look! Reborn from a desperate situation, power awakens! Do you think I am actually like the one in the movie, with some kind of power sleeping in my body that I don't even know and that is destined to save the world?"]

[Shikadai was about to throw a piece of popcorn into his mouth. He paused after hearing this, and then turned over a huge Byakugan. Even his usually lazy eyebrows had a deep sense of powerlessness.]

["Boruto, please wake up, okay. Last time, Senior Scorpion made you addicted to Savior in Warring States Illusion. Did you really regard the hallucination as reality?"]

["That's just a highly immersive Genjutsu, Genjutsu! Has your chuunibyou upgraded again?"]

["Humph, the wisdom of mortals cannot understand the dazzling sun!" Boruto smiled proudly, and suddenly took out a pair of "Kamen Rider Commemorative Transformation Glasses" that he had just bought at the entrance of the theater, full of plastic but exaggerated shape, from his small bag, and quickly put it on his face.]

[He stood up with a "swish", put his left hand on his hips, put the index and middle fingers of his right hand together against his temple, assumed a posture that he thought was extremely handsome, lowered his voice and imitated the tone in the movie, and shouted in a passionate voice:]

["Listen up! A real hero's power does not come from blood or fate, but from the determination to protect the smile in front of him! So, I'm going! Henshin!"]

[Although the voice was lowered, at the relatively quiet end of the movie, this powerful declaration of "transformation" still attracted the attention of several viewers in the front and back rows.]

[Shikadai put his hand on his forehead, barely able to see.]

[He used his elbow to poke Mitsuki, who was sitting quietly next to him, and even the curvature of his mouth did not change. "Mitsuki, take care of him! He's started again! Is this chuunibyou hopeless?"]

[Mitsuki tilted his head slightly, and his eyes fell on Boruto, who was in an awkward posture, with his spectacles shining brightly in the reflection of the screen. In his always calm purple eyes, the figure of the blond boy who was making noise at the moment was clearly reflected.]

[He shook his head slightly, "No, Shikadai. I think this is good. Boruto is like this, always full of vitality, always believing in light and possibility, as dazzling and warm as the sun, making people want to get close and protect them."]

[Shikadai:"..."]

[He looked at Boruto who said "I am Warrior of Light", and then looked at Mitsuki who said "I am the best in the world", took a deep breath, hugged the remaining half bucket of popcorn tightly, and murmured in a tone as if he had seen through the world:]

["It's over, it's hopeless, both of you are hopeless. One is in the advanced stage of chuunibyou, and the other has a sun filter thicker than Steel Armor. How can I be friends with you two!"]

[At this time, the movie just ended, the ending song played, and the theater lights gradually turned on.]

[Boruto then took off his glasses and put them away carefully. While collecting the popcorn crumbs he made, he retorted to Shikadai: "You can't say that, Shikadai! I have a basis!"]

["I heard that my stinky dad was called 'Child of Prophecy' by a grandfather named Jiraiya when he was a child!"]

["What does this mean? It means that our family has this tradition! Maybe, I am Child of Prophecy from Shinichi generation!"]

["When the time comes, just keep your eyes open and watch, see how I, Boruto Uzumaki, will punch Jashinist Cult, kick aliens, and save Shinobi World from fire and water! Haha!"]

[Shikadai was too lazy to complain. He picked up his small backpack and said feebly: "Prophecies are the most unreliable."]

["Instead of thinking about things that have disappeared, you might as well think about your graduation placement."]

[Boruto shrugged indifferently, put on his bag and walked out: "You can follow anyone! Just don't be assigned to the same class as Sarada."]

["Hey, how about the three of us find a way to do some activities and be assigned to the same class! How about it?"]

[Shikadai heard this, his desire for gossip overcame his helplessness, and asked curiously: "What happened to you and Sarada? Haven't you always had a good relationship? Last time I went to Kirigakure for an exchange mission, I heard that you guys cooperated quite well."]

["Who, who has a good relationship with her!" Boruto seemed to have been stepped on, his voice suddenly rose up, and then quickly lowered it when people around him looked over, "She is just my master's daughter! We don't have a good relationship!"]

[Mitsuki, who had been following quietly beside him, explained softly in a touch-up tone: "Because on the first day after returning from Sunagakure, Boruto pulled Sarada very enthusiastically and told in detail his encounter with Senior Scorpion in Sunagakure and his subsequent adventures in that virtual fantasy world."]

["Especially the part about how Boruto shined in the illusion to save Uchiha Hikari."]

["Then, I don't know which sentence touched Sarada, but after listening to it, she punched Boruto directly."]

["Hey! Mitsuki!" Boruto instantly became furious and his face was a little red, "Don't talk nonsense! I let her! After all, she is also a girl and the master's daughter. I can't fight back, right?"]

["Otherwise, how could she possibly hit me, a genius ninja!"]
