Instead of returning home with Boruto, Mitsuki stays with Kokuyou. During this time, Sekiei becomes sick and declines. To recover, Kokuyou returns to his comrades. During his absence, Sekiei asks Mitsuki to teach him what it means to be human.  Meanwhile, the Fourth Tsuchikage Kurotsuchi, who had been visiting Ohnoki, her ailing grandfather, is attacked by mysterious assailants.
If you kill me now,
you'll be in trouble, right?
،إن قتلتني الآن
ستكون في مأزق، صحيح؟
Ihr habt doch im Endeffekt das Nachsehen,
wenn du mich hier tötest.
Si me matas,
será un problema para ustedes, ¿no?
Si me matas,
será un problema para vosotros, ¿no?
Uccidermi adesso,
Se me matar agora, está ferrado, não?
А разве не вам хуже будет,
если убьёшь меня?
