In the main hall of Konoha's Ninja Academy, Shino-sensei’s voice cuts through the morning chatter. He announces the arrival of a transfer student, an orphan from the Hidden Cloud Village. Shikadai leans against a wall, one eye on Boruto and Sarada as they snap at each other over some trivial slight. Iwabe cracks his knuckles, hoping the new kid has some real strength. Sumire watches from her desk, a soft, wondering look on her face. Cho-Cho sits by herself, steadily working through a bag of potato chips.
