Chapter 21 - Boruto’s Anguish

The whole kingdom of the wind was scrambled in search of who had dared to assassinate the royal sorcerers, but nobody saw anything, nobody knew anything and therefore the culprits were not found. It did not serve the large rewards that the king offered. That's how fed up all the people were, due to the abuses of the royal sorcerers and the government itself. Nobody would say anything.

Two long and extensive weeks passed, in which the Uzumaki family remained hidden on the outskirts of the town. However, they were aware of everything that was happening thanks to the power of Shukaku. When they decided to look for them they just calmed down, although they knew that the king would reinforce the surveillance even worse.

Boruto smiled happily since that incentivized even more the desire to kill them all. The good thing was that they didn't know they were there. Naruto brought, that afternoon, the idea of participating in the Halloween party that the people would do.

In the kingdom of fire it is celebrated year after year and while the blonde was free to move he used to have fun with Sasuke and his friends.

Sasuke, Mitsuki and Shinki smiled seeing him like that as they remembered the happy times they spent together enjoying that event. They knew that Naruto would not sit idly by in the face of such an event. But Boruto was another story. Both he and Jiraiya never participated in that party because they spent their days running away from everyone.

Going to that event would be exposing yourself. Boruto remembered how he discovered it as a child when Jiraiya agreed to take him to have some fun. The villagers not only spurned them upon instantly recognizing him, but the royal sorcerers pursued them and narrowly missed capturing them. They were in the realm of water.

After that they had to escape to the realm of thunder. That's why when his father came up with that idea, he said nothing, limiting himself to walking away from the place in silence. Of course he wouldn't go, he didn't want to lose anyone else.

"Perhaps it is better that I return them to the realm of fire. What do you think? Matatabi, Shukaku. But it wasn't them who answered him but Kurama.

"Don't dream it, we'd come back to you boy.

Right Naruto?"

"Certainly, Kurama. He replied alludedly.

Son, you don't have to do everything by yourself. And you shouldn't worry so much about us either.

Dad, I... I don't want you to get hurt again because of me. Son, it would hurt me a lot more to know that you don't allow me to help you or be part of your life. Boruto hugged him tightly crying inconsolably, he was terrified that something would happen to his father. He felt the same for his brother Mitsuki and for Shinki.

"I will not leave you alone my child. I will not allow you to continue adrift, you are very talented and powerful. Do not fear for me, nothing will happen to me.

Do you really want to attend the Halloween party dad?

Yes, I want to share that event with you my little one. Naruto smiled happily at him removing the anguish from his soul.

In that case we will have to think about the costumes that we will use dad. It will be the first time I attend something like this you know?

In that case we will do our best to make you have a great time. We all love you Boruto. Besides life is not only pain, slaughter, hate and death. There is also joy, fun and love, lots of love. And that you are experiencing very well with Shinki.

Boruto blushed to the roots of his hair, awakening happy laughter in Naruto. Father and son returned with the others smiling happily. Mitsuki and Shinki smiled when they saw them arrive.

"We must prepare the disguises that not only hid us but others will be the best," said Naruto.

Shinki hugged Boruto with intense passion.

"Calm down my angel, everything will be fine.

I know my love, I know. Excuse my moment of weakness.
