Land of Water.
The cruise ship reached its destination and docked smoothly at the shore.
The students disembarked in an orderly fashion, lining up as they waited for roll call.
Shino said, "Quiet down. The guide will be here soon to show you around the Hidden Mist Village, so mind your manners."
Anko Mitarashi silently stared at the attendance sheet, checking each student off.
"Welcome to the Hidden Mist Village. I'm Kagura Karatachi, and I'll be your guide for this trip."
Kagura introduced himself as he walked over.
He had simple light-green hair, violet eyes, and a purple marking beneath his left eye. His demeanor was humble and calm.
"He's so handsome!!" some of the girls screamed.
"He is handsome, but who knows what he's like on the inside?" Chōchō remained composed.
Boruto said, "Karatachi? Don't tell me you're related to the Fourth Mizukage?"
Kagura was immediately startled. He had not expected the other boy to know his family background before they had even gotten acquainted.
But when he looked closely, he realized that the one who had guessed his identity was the distinguished guest of this trip. "That's right. If I'm not mistaken, you're the son of the Seventh Hokage, Lord Naruto Uzumaki."
"Likewise." Boruto smiled and extended his hand in greeting.
Kagura paused slightly. It seemed Boruto had already confirmed his identity, having guessed the answer from his name alone. Was this what one expected from someone who had made a name for himself in the Shinobi World?
He extended his hand as well, shaking Boruto's as they exchanged a few words. Both wore smiles, as though signaling their equally distinguished statuses.
At that moment, the Mizukage arrived as well and welcomed everyone with a smile. "Nice to meet you. I am the current Mizukage, Chōjūrō. Thank you
