Finally the children and the Academy senseis left Konoha on foot first, according to their plan.
"Neh everyone, let's hv an all girls' night tonight!" Ino declared next to her sighing husband.
"Ino, you're acting as if you're finally free from a mission or something..." Sakura frowned at her best friend's 'happiness'.
"Come on, Forehead! We couldn't really have a proper night out with the kids around. Isn't that right, Hinata!?"
"W...Well, you could say that..."
"Hinata!" Sakura shouted in surprise to the Hyuuga's words.
"Everyone, let's have a barbecue night tonight then. Everyone's included." Choji spoke out with Karui glaring.
"Not so fast, big man! We have tons of cleaning to do and you're not leaving my sight til it's done! Come on!" Karui then dragged Choji by the collar who was crying for meat, much to everyone's surprise that the former Kumo kunoichi could pull the large Akimichi without effort.
"Hai, as expected of Karui-san." Hinata spoke out with Himawari excitedly watching.
"Well, serves him right for leaving all the plates unwashed all the time." Temari responded.
"So, are we on?" Ino looked at the other three women.
"Sorry but let's have it tomorrow instead since we'll be free for the next week as well." Temari said
"Me too, Ino-san." Hinata followed by.
"Hmph, thanks for the ditch then. Sakura, you're with me?"
"Sorry but I seriously have to work at home tonight. Tomorrow alright..." Sakura responded to the blonde's disappointment.
The group of parents then slowly dispersed to their homes for their one-to-one night with their children's absence, except for Naruto and Hinata.
On the pathway, Boruto was looking bored as he looked at the adults Konohamaru and Shino talking. He turned around to see Chocho doing her usual stuff and Shikadai walking with his half-asleep face.
"He is actually awake or sleeping?"
10 minutes passed...
"SENSEI, are we there yet?!" Boruto threw a tantrum which had everyone's attention on him.
"You know, Boruto, it normally takes three days to reach Sunagakure one way and with you kids around, we'll probably take five." Konohamaru patiently explained.
"WHAT! I don't wanna walk that long. It's boring!" Boruto complained.
"You..."
Sarada sighed and Boruto turned "What, four-eyes!?"
"You didn't read the trip itinerary, didn't you?"
"I...nery?" Boruto tilted his head and Shino decided to leave the Uchiha to explain everything as Boruto would not understand his explanation, unfortunately.
"Listen. Last time, our parents and many shinobis had to travel on foot for three days to reach Sunagakure. But with the new train built at the village borders three years ago, we'll reach Sunagakure in less than two days instead..."
Hearing a snore, Sarada stopped to see Boruto standing asleep with Shikadai next to him.
"You...!" Sarada held back her annoyance until Konohamaru went behind them and gave them their daily punch.
"WAKE UP, YOU TWO KORE! Listen when people's talking!"
"Konohamaru-sensei, it's boring. Can't we have a training session?!" Boruto threw his hands around while Shikadai sleepily looked forth. The jonin angrily held his fist and Boruto then glanced at Sarada and annoyingly, Inojin who was talking to her.
"As expected of you to memorize the itinerary, Sarada."
"Same goes to you too, right. How's your painting going?"
"Alright I guess. What do you think?" Inojin shared his painting scroll to Sarada, whose eyes showed approval to a close-up picture of a flower among trees.
Scowling at the happy conversation between the Uchiha and Yamanaka, Boruto turned to Shino "Shino-sensei, let's have our shuriken training here!"
"What are you talking about, Boruto?! You only learn that only after this trip!" The Sarutobi said to the pouting Uzumaki, who refused to back out.
Knowing things would not go their way until they do for the Uzumaki, Shino sighed "Fine. We'll have your shuriken training here but we'll have to pace faster then."
"Alright!" "Then I'll show those two who's the best!" Boruto glanced at the two.
While Konohamaru marking a tree for practice, Shino was teaching the children the proper hand position to hold a shuriken. Once he thought to be sufficient, he had Chocho, Shikadai, Sarada, Inojin and Boruto in line.
"Alright, just do as I taught you just now and throw the shuriken straight to the target mark." Shino pointed at a red circle made by the jonin who stood next to it.
"Sensei, what if we hit Konohamaru-sensei?" Chocho asked with chips in her mouth.
"Hehe, like that's gonna happen. Alright, let's start." Konohamaru grinned.
Chocho flung her shuriken forth which landed on a spot in between the tree and the ground. Shikadai then threw his which hit the tree at Konohamaru's knee level. As Shikadai walked back, Inojin congratulated his friend.
"Congrats, Shikadai. Thought you'll find it troublesome to throw it though."
"True but it's troublesome to hear senseĆ's whining too." Shikadai sighed and Inojin simply smiled.
"Next, Uchiha Sarada." Shino called. The Uchiha stepped forth and positioned herself in a proper position. With that, she managed to hit the target right on target, which earned her applause from Shino, Konohamaru, Chocho and Inojin.
"Good job, Sarada." Shino responded.
Sarada smiled "Shannaro! Got it on my first try! Gonna show to mama and papa when I'm back!"
As Sarada walked to the side, both Inojin and Boruto had their eyes on her which the latter noticed then in front of him as well. Upon the call, Inojin also positioned himself like Sarada and hit on target; his shuriken hit right next to Sarada's shuriken side by side. Again, applause was given to the Yamanaka. Initially frowning at his success, Boruto glanced at Sarada and frowned even more to see Sarada's onyx eyes glittering and her Uchiha smirk.
"Uzumaki Boruto, your turn."
"Damn that Inojin. I'll show you two who's the best!" Boruto positioned himself and quickly threw the shuriken with his eyes closed. Opening his cerulean eyes, Boruto went into shock, followed by Shino and other four children. The end-result even woke Shikadai from his nap with widened eyes. The jonin however could not understand their facial expressions.
"What's wrong?"
Sarada held her forehead with her hand and a sign as Inojin pointed with a nervous smile "Ehmmm, sensei..."
Looking at the point, Konohamaru followed it and looked down to see a shuriken in between his legs. If he was any shorter, that shuriken could have ended his manhood for life. Boruto slowly stepped backwards before the ultimate rage of the day.
"UZUMAKI BORUTO!"
