Uzuhiko (chapter)

Summary[]

Code wonders if Boruto's new Rasengan is his vanishing one, but discards the possibility. He uses Claw Marks to strike him from behind. Boruto dodges it, Code grabs him by the wrist, and Boruto blocks Code's other hand with his sword. Code thinks Boruto can't hit him, but Boruto reveals his technique is already affecting him. The swirling begins enveloping Code, Boruto asks him again where the Ten-Tails is, threatening to kill him. Code attempts to strike him, but can't land a hit, finding Boruto's movements to be beyond dodging, also ruling out clones and genjutsu. Boruto lands his Rasengan: "Uzuhiko". Watching, Ada is unimpressed by Boruto's jutsu, but Daemon realises it makes use of planetary spin, considering it nifty. Code tries to stand, but falls down due to vertigo. Boruto explains his jutsu, considering it the planet's counterattack, the damage never stopping as long as the planet continues spinning. Boruto can rescind the effects if Code takes him to the Ten-Tails. Kawaki attacks Boruto, arriving with Team 10 and Himawari. Shikadai asks what Boruto is doing, and Boruto tells him not to interrupt his attempt to make a deal. Code attempts to escape, but Kawaki shrinks the Claw Marks. Shikamaru asks for a report, Kawaki tells he has dealt with the last of Code's marks, cutting off his escape, and can likely kill him on account of how drained he is against Boruto. Kawaki antagonises Boruto, giving Code an opening to call forth a Claw Grime with the mark on his face and escape through it. Shikamaru gives to order to kill every grime. Sarada and another shinobi check on the tree that grew around Soegi, considering it a defective God Tree, and determine that Soegi is still alive. Kawaki mocks Boruto's Uchiha-like outfit. Boruto is glad that Himawari looks well. Kawaki thinks Boruto came home to die, and while dying in Konoha doesn't sound bad to him, Boruto still has things to do. A hidden toad in his collar reports to Boruto that Code returned to his base. Code stumbles past a tree with Bug before arriving at the pen, with an emaciated Ten-Tails. A toad Boruto planted on Code reports the Ten-Tails' presence to Boruto.
