After yesterday's incident at the school building, Mr. Shino learned his lesson. Fortunately, medical ninjutsu was advanced, and as a Jonin, he didn't suffer too serious injuries.

It was just unfortunate timing that he was knocked unconscious by a boulder falling from above.

The next day, when Boruto went to school and saw the bandages on Mr. Shino's head, he understood what had happened to some extent.

As for the chakra suddenly surging into his body, it must have been the Jōgan blurring the distance between the main body and the shadow clone. His main body was at Mount Myōboku, and a connection was quietly established through the gap in the summoning jutsu.

His main body's training could barely manage to activate Sage Mode. Due to his constitution, Boruto had an unusual affinity for natural energy.

But to stabilize it, he still needed to gradually adapt to Sage Chakra.

This battle reminded Boruto that the reason Momoshiki and his group were able to come to the Shinobi World was all because of Nue's appearance, which leaked the Shinobi World's spatial coordinates!

Because Nue itself was not a life form from this world, it resided in a different dimension.

This space did not belong to the Shinobi World, nor did it come from the Ōtsutsuki, but it seemed to be between the Shinobi World and the Ōtsutsuki, acting as a hub.

The Ōtsutsuki clan had the ability to traverse the starry sky. In the vast expanse of space, without a precise target, finding the Shinobi World was like searching for a needle in a haystack!

But once Nue was summoned to the Shinobi World, it would inevitably create a connection between two unconnected spaces, which would leak the Shinobi World's spatial coordinates.

Therefore, Nue could not appear, and it must be nipped in the bud. Before I become strong, all hidden dangers must be buried!

Then I must target the class representative. I can't let her continue to feed Nue's growth!

Fortunately, the Jōgan was relatively sensitive to spatial cracks. Once there was a fluctuation in space, the Jōgan could capture it. Currently, it had not sensed Nue's other dimension.

And according to the current progress, there was still some time before Sumire Kakei summoned Nue.

Although the three Ōtsutsuki who appeared later were all dealt with by Naruto and Sasuke, I would also be branded with Karma. Being parasitized by a mere Ōtsutsuki was not the ending I wanted to see.

How about treating Momoshiki and the others as fertilizer for the God Tree in the Kara organization, to bear God Tree fruit!

Speaking of this, Boruto suddenly realized that there was also the Kara organization hiding in the dark. These sneaky bastards were all at the Six Paths level. Naruto had to use Sage Mode to fight a small fry, which was really unacceptable.

The plan to establish an organization was imminent. He had to build up his own power before Kara showed its face, so that he wouldn't be caught off guard by these sneaky bastards when he actually came into contact with them.

Speaking of which, Naruto canceled Anbu, which is why he was beaten like a blind man because he couldn't collect enough information!

Outside, in the classroom, because the school building was damaged, classes were moved outdoors.

In addition, the class welcomed a transfer student today, Mitsuki.

This morning, Boruto had already met him. Unfortunately, he didn't see Mitsuki in action in a hurry, because with Boruto's current strength, he was comparable to a Special Jonin!

Yesterday, the Jōgan's resonance assimilated the connection between the shadow clone and the main body, just like summoning the shadow clone again. So now Boruto had the main body's memories and strength!

As a result, the chaos on the street this morning was instantly resolved by Boruto!

Meeting again, Mitsuki smiled slightly and introduced himself to the other students in the class, "My name is Mitsuki, and I come from Otogakure."

After Mr. Shino's explanation, Mitsuki slowly sat down, of course, on the lawn, right next to Boruto.

"Can I sit next to you?" Mitsuki asked softly.

"Of course, my name is Boruto Uzumaki, nice to meet you..." Boruto remembered that this kid was a bit rigid.

"Yeah, nice to meet you, Boruto." Mitsuki replied with a smile.

In class, Mr. Shino wrote theoretical knowledge questions on the blackboard, and Boruto suddenly asked Mitsuki out of the blue, "Did Orochimaru send you to find me?"

Mitsuki: ?!!!

Seeing Mitsuki suddenly startled, Boruto explained, "It seems so. I admire Orochimaru-senpai. You look a lot like him in many ways."

Mitsuki was silent, staring at Boruto in silence and shock.

"Never mind, I'm just guessing. Can you use Sage Mode?" Boruto asked 'casually'.

Mitsuki: ???

At this moment, Mitsuki's heart was full of question marks. You can even guess this, I can only say that you are worthy of being the sun in my father's mouth? It's too dazzling!!!

Seeing that Mitsuki didn't answer, Boruto didn't ask any more questions and pretended to listen to the class easily.

In fact, Boruto was thinking that since the main body was practicing Sage Mode at Mount Myōboku, why didn't he also learn the Sage Mode of Ryūchi Cave, and also Shikkotsu Forest.

The three-colored Sage power had its own characteristics. He wondered if he could cultivate a higher level of power after mastering the three-colored Sage power.

Six Paths, maybe it's not the end.

Just as Boruto was immersed in his own thoughts, Mitsuki suddenly opened his mouth: "Is Boruto interested in Sage Mode? I can teach you."

Boruto thought to himself: This kid is really honest!

"I'm interested, but not much. I'd rather meet your father and ask him some questions."

"Oh?" Mitsuki became interested.

"For example, the other possible advancement of the Byakugan."

The two communicated silently in the classroom, and Shino on the stage clenched his fists tightly, and the chalk in his hand was crushed into powder.

"Boruto, this is class!" Shino reminded him through gritted teeth.

"Oh, oh, you continue to talk." Boruto turned his head back, looking like he was listening attentively.

Shino: ...

This made the well-meaning teacher question himself. Is there really something wrong with my teaching methods?

Seeing his teacher standing there in a depressed daze, Boruto couldn't help but recall that this guy was going to turn evil later on. Wouldn't this be the perfect opportunity to catch the class rep in the act?

So, Shino-sensei, just go ahead and turn evil and create an opportunity for me. When I stop the Ox-Head Heavenly King from appearing, you'll be the number one hero of the Shinobi World!

Speaking of which, how am I going to stop Sumire from continuing to use Nue to infect others? Am I going to have to kidnap her?

No, no. Boruto shook his head, rejecting the idea. That's too unrealistic. I'd probably get caught pretty quickly.

Besides kidnapping, I can only resort to sealing techniques. I remember there's a type of seal called the Contract Seal. Its purpose is to sever the contract between an enemy and their summoned beast, preventing the enemy from controlling the beast, or preventing the enemy from summoning said beast.

It feels like, in terms of its function, it's perfect for severing the connection between the class rep and Nue.

Boruto was always one to act on his ideas immediately. During the break between classes, he used his Shadow Clones to sneak into the ninjutsu library to learn this type of sealing technique.
