#2

After completing his mission, Naruto returned to Konoha and immediately went to the Hokage's office to report

"Sensei, mission accomplished dattebayo," said Naruto, throwing the scroll towards Kakashi

"I thought it would take you much less time." Kakashi gave his student a puzzled look

"Yes, but I visited Suna - Gakure, Gaara wanted to talk about something"

"I see, well, since you're back, you should go home."

Naruto raised an eyebrow wanting to ask what Kakashi meant, but decided to let it go and ran home.

"I came back!"

"Naruto-kun" Concerned Hinata ran to her husband

"Hinata, what's going on?"

"Boruto..."

"Huh what about Boruto?"

"He went to training yesterday and suddenly disappeared, nowhere to be found"

Naruto was surprised by what he heard "Leave it to me, I'll find him. Tajuu Kage Bushin No Jutsu!" Naruto created a lot of clones that he sent around the village and the surrounding area, while he himself sat in a meditation position entering sage mode

"No it is not possible..."

"What happened?"

"I can't sense Boruto's presence in the village or near Konoha"

Hinata fell to her knees starting to cry, Naruto decided to hug his wife trying to calm her down "Don't worry, I'll find Boruto. If he's out of the village, I need to contact Sasuke"

Meanwhile, Boruto and Miyori were awakened by a strange bang, a moment later they were both taken to the training ground

"Today we will start your training, you will start by running twenty times on this terrain, then you will do three hundred push-ups and two hundred sit-ups"

The kids did as he told them, those who didn't do all the exercises correctly were beaten with a hot rod.

"Okay, those who did a good job may eat a meal, but you are not to share food with those who have fallen"

"I want to go home," Miyori said

Boruto, who was one of the few kids who did a good job of eating food, felt a boy tugging at his sleeve, asking for a piece of food.

Watching carefully when none of the guards were looking in his direction, he broke off a piece of roll

"Hold on, eat fast!"

Suddenly, Boruto was hit in the arm with a rod and howled in pain

"What did I say, no sharing with losers, go back to your cell for punishment"

Boruto glared at the man and went back to his cell, then he heard Miyori crying

"Tou-san, Kaa-chan!"

Boruto laid down in bed and started thinking about what was going on in his village and what his family was doing, did you notice his absence, did they care about him, he didn't even notice when he fell asleep
