Yuka walked along the entourage that was following the carriage. The three of them were guarding the carriage in a triangle formation. One front, two at the back. The three walked along in this formation as the carriage moved forward. Yuka looked up in the blue sky and sighed " boring...' 

Boruto : neh neh. So ... If she's Roku daime's daughter, she is super strong right?

Mitsuki: I don't think it's right to make such a related assumption. But she is a jounin, so it would seem so I think.

Sarada : does it matter ? We won't be able to see her use her skills anyway. This is just a standard guarding mission.

" Yuka ~~ " the voice in the palanquin  called out. Yuka sighed annoyingly and headed towards the voice as the bamboo curtains was lifted up and a guy was revealed " long time no see. Did you miss me ? "

Yuka : no. You're just one of my many clients.

" So mean. It's me. Me. Decker."

Yuka : what a waste of time.... Making come on these kinds of trips. Like you don't have your own guards.

Decker : well. I did want to see you.

Yuka : but ?

Decker : I'm carrying quite a pearl with me in this box. I've been told it's way more precious than the glamour it's showing. It's some kind of a tool used in some ritual.

Yuka : you've been attacked before ?

Decker : once.

Yuka : can I see it ?

Decker : well ~ it is a heirloom I just got from my parents. You want to marry me ?

" Fine. Die for all I care. " And Yuka walked ahead.

Decker : wait. Wait. Ok.

Decker opened the box to show a glowing orb, the size of a hand.

Sarada : that's... A pearl ?

Boruto ; decker-san. Are you sure it's a pearl ?

Decker; that's what we call it !

Mitsuki: if I'm not wrong. It's more like a tool that takes in natural energy.

" this is going to get troublesome.  Sighs. " Yuka takes out a scroll from inside her pouch and opens it. She presses on the middle of the seal and it starts to glow.

Yushin's voice came through " what ? I'm busy . Not there!!! Baka !! There!! It's just strengthening a dumb barrier!! "

Yuka :  you know the ninja tool that can absorb natural energy?

Yushin: hai. Why ? We have one at our house. To keep the library sealed.

Yuka : we have one ?

Yushin : yea. The empty flower vase hung on the wooden wall in the backyard.

Yuka ; eh ?

Yushin: it's not much of a tool. More like a vessel mother randomly chose to use and made it into a tool. A simple one. To transfer gathered energy into the seal.

Yuka : how about a glowing pearl ?

Yushin: how big ?

Yuka ; the size of a palm.

Yushin : hurry up !! I've still got to go home and cook lunch !! Eh... that's some vessel to use . People chasing for it ?

Yuka ; ah.

Yushin: that's bad. Cos it's a vessel made from nature, it can absorb natural energy even if left alone. Plus it's from the bottom of the sea, the pearl itself has the property to absorb high levels of natural energy due to its harsh environment. Put it this way... Baka !!! If you sealed up the entrance, who can enter the village?!!

Yuka ; focus

Yushin ; it has enough power to explode an entire small village.

Yuka : I got it. Arigatou.

Yushin: Yuka. Be careful. Something like that, can be used to suck in people's chakra too.

" Bye. " And Yuka cuts off the communication seal.

Sarada ; what should we do? This seems to be above our level.

Yuka looks to the three of them.

Boruto : what ?

Yuka : nothing.
