As the son of the Seventh Hokage, Uzumaki Boruto once thought that his father was a born hero.
Until he traveled back to Konoha Village decades ago and met the blond boy who was despised by the whole village and ate instant noodles alone.
His name is Uzumaki Naruto, the future Seventh Hokage, and the current Hokage.
No one wanted to take a second look at him, no one believed he could become a ninja.
Boruto decided to stay and grow up with him as a senior brother.
Taught him how to climb trees, taught him the Rasengan, blocked fatal attacks for him in the Land of Waves, and held down his rampaging Nine-Tails Chakra during the Chunin Exam.
From the age of eight to sixteen, from the loneliest childhood to the decisive battle of the Fourth Ninja War.
Boruto tried his best to protect his young father, and finally understood all his father's strength and difficulty.
"Dad, it's me who will protect you this time."
