It’s been two years since the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War. Shikamaru now has an important role within the Hidden Leaf government, and as a representative of the Leaf in the Alliance. One day, a situation develops with shinobi disappearing in droves, and Shikamaru takes on a dangerous mission.
Well, you're Lord Hokage's
right-hand man, aren't you?
وأنت اليد اليمنى للهوكاغي-ساما، أليس كذلك؟
Du bist doch die rechte
Hand des Hokages, oder?
Y tú eres la mano derecha
del Hokage, ¿no?
Y tú eres la mano derecha
del Hokage, ¿no?
Beh! E tu Shikamaru? 
Sei il braccio destro del venerabile Hokage!
Bom, você é o braço direito do Hokage, né?
