Chapter 30
Boruto charges to Miyuki and she jumps to the other side. Boruto throws shurikens. Miyuki summons some shurikens then she deflects the shurikens.
"And now.... Be ready. I think you'll be cut off"
"Huh?"
Miyuki spins herself together with her scroll and many weapons came out. Boruto tries to dodge it and then a weapon hits him at his left side arm.
"Aw.."
"Sorry, if it hurts. But it's part of the exam and also in reality"
"Damn it! It doesn't hurt, you know!" Boruto said and he makes shadow clones. Two of them charges to her and Miyuki uses the scroll. The two clones poofs and Miyuki is out of weapons.
"I'm gonna finish this in one big sweep!"
"Not bad he used his clones as a diversion"
"This is my lethal... Boruto Stream!" Boruto charges to Miyuki with electrocuted kunais. Miyuki lay his back down then he poofs and Miyuki smirks. Boruto appears in the ground then gets the bell.
"It's mine!" then Miyuki do the substitution jutsu. Boruto looks inside his hand and he had a leaf. Miyuki show up.
"I'm so impressed with you, Boruto. You almost got the bell. But I think this is the end of the line for you..." Miyuki said and she snaps her finger. Miyuki's clones comes down and Boruto is being pinned down. Then Kakashi goes down.
"Now you're pinned down by her. You didn't expect this, right?" Kakashi asked.
"Do you want be to tell you how to get out in this situation? You have to break you're own arm... It's probably impossible for someone who doesn't have the motivation for a ninja"
"Motivation? What's that supposed to mean?" Boruto asked.
"Motivation is well... Having resolve. Whether it's for money, for praise or for the sake of you parents. It doesn't matter. But without it you'll can't change"
"Even I have... Aw!"
"Sorry.." Miyuki's clones said.
"You'll become a ninja with everyone and then figure out something to do. Was that right? You call that resolve? Then what about right now, you still haven't figure it out?"
"Huh?"
"Would you be able to trample over them to become a ninja just yourself?. It's hard to answer a question like that, isn't it? But things like that often happen. And that'ts when what ultimately sustains a ninja is born. Resolve comes from motivation. Sure you're willing and you have the talent. But that's just not enough. And that's even more if you don't have resolve"
"Tsk. How would you know anything about me?"
"I know plenty. I got a good look at you up close" Kakashi changes his face and Boruto is shocked.
"You're..."
"I just took a page from your book and pranked you. I passed Miyumi because she already knows the answer to my test. So she doesn't need this test and her skills are way too high. Anyway, these year's Academy students are horrible"
"What?"
"There are ones among you who knows more or less have even resolve but even so they underestimate what a ninja is. It must be your influence on them. The severity of being a ninja. The unfairness that awaits. You haven't even begun to imagine it. I just can't acknowledge this group as a ninja. Because if you get into a real battle you'll be all slaughtered. I'll ask you again... Can you break you your own arm just so that you can find the reason to become a ninja? I guess no one passes this year. There's no any of you. To return to the Academy. Find another path. Just think of it as part of the severity on becoming a ninja"
"Damn it!"
"Miyumi, I'll leave this to you"
"Yes" Miyuki said and Kakashi disappeared.
"Boruto, sorry if it Lord Sixth hurts your feelings. But I know you can do it with everyone"
"Why would you say that?"
"It's because you can lead them. You're a troublemaker and the nucleus of the class but.. You're the one who changes them and it's the reason why they made it this far. Without you maybe nobody can pass this exam"
"Huh?"
"If weren't for you, Iwabe may be still in the corner of the classroom. And also maybe today the war started because of Kagura. If you weren't here.. Sumire may not be alive anymore"
"Now it's up to you to find the answer" then later a kunai is coming to her and she deflects it with a kunai.
"Lightning Style: Snake Lightning" Mitsuki is coming and Miyuki's clones poofs. Miyuki back jumps back. Then Iwabe makes an earth style to escape Boruto. And Mitsuki escapes too.
"They're gone... Good luck.. Cause I'm not showing you yet my special move"
Sarada checked the area if there's the other teachers. Then she goes down. Wasabi was healing his arm. And also his other classmates are there.
"I don't detect sensei closeby"
"I guess we were able to get away for now" Iwabe said.
"Are you ok?" Wasabi asked.
"I-I'm ok...", Boruto said and Wasabi stops healing him.
"Thanks, Wasabi"
"Damn! So this is the severe part of a ninja?" Iwabe asked and Boruto remembered what he said before this.
"Let's wrap this up and be a ninja already!"
"Guys.. I'm sorry. This could be all my fault"
"What are you talking about?" Iwabe said.
"I thought we could all become ninja together, then I could figure out what I want to do. But it's just not enough" Boruto said.
"Is that why you couldn't protest?" Iwabe asked.
"I-I.... couldn't break my own arm"
"Your arm?!" Denki said suprised.
"Old man Kakashi said that our class is horible and that it was all because of me"
"Why you..." Iwabe grabs his shirt.
"Iwabe!"
"D-don't fight"
"W-what?"
"Turning on each other is exactly what they are aiming for" Wasabi said.
"Shut up. I'm not picking a fight" Iwabe said and turns his head to Boruto.
"What the hell are you going about? We're weak because of you? Quit looking down on us! I'm saying this to you and Lord Sixth!" Iwabe said.
"If it weren't for you, Boruto. I'd be still in the corner of the classroom, expecting to stay back another year and sulking over it. It's because of you, I'd got this far. All that and you're still looking down at me?!" then he lets go of him
"I've made up my mind. I'm going to become a ninja no matter what. You helped me get this far and I'm not going to give you chance to put me down! Right?" he asked Denki.
"Yup. I wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you"Denki said.
"Me too" Sumire said giving him his bandana.
"If you weren't here, I know I wouldn't be alive right now either" Boruto gets his bandana.
"This time, I want to repay you and the others, with my life and my power. That's why I'm going to be a ninja" Sumire said.
"Our entire class is full of good people. You have a big mouth but you put on us first. And did everthing you could to help us escape. You're the nucleus of this class, Boruto. That's for sure, I hate to admit it. We all look up to you.... And you think it's bad?" then Boruto remembers something.
Flashback
"I know you can do it with everyone"
"Why would you say that?"
"It's because you can lead them. You're a troublemaker and the nucleus of the class but.. You're the one who changes them and it's the reason why they made it this far. Without you maybe nobody can pass this exam"
"Huh?"
"If weren't for you, Iwabe may be still in the corner of the classroom. And also maybe today the war started because of Kagura. If you weren't here.. Sumire may not be alive anymore"
"Now it's up to you to find the answer"
End of flashback
Boruto stands up and put on his bandana.
"Alright, I've made up my mind! I... I'm gonna become a ninja so that we can stay together!" Boruto saud,
"Alright! Let's do it! Let's make Lord Sixth take back everything!" Iwabe said
"But how? Aren't we all out?" Namida asked.
"About that...." Denki gets his laptop.
"I was thinking it was strange. Why is there a 24 hour time limit? As long as we have our bandanas, shouldn't we be able to keep trying" Denki said.
"Come to think of it, we didn't get our bandanas taken away when they got us" Wasabi said.
"Yeah, even we all lost consciousness" Namida said.
"And although we were all wounded, they didn't come after us" Sarada said.
"Maybe everyone's still in...." Iwabe thinked.
"I'm positive we're ok" Boruto said.
"How can you be so sure?"
"This is a test of our 'resolve' "
"But all the sensei said that this isn't an ordinary exam" Metal said.
"We forgot because we focused on the practical application part. That's how trick questions work. It's not the problem, but how we choose to answer that's important. This isn't an ordinary exam. This is all for our sake.... The early bird gets the worm... And there's one bell"
"Which means..."
"Yeah. We're all gonna pass together! But first I have a strategy for you all"
