The Value of a Trump Card!!

Synopsis
Team Konohamaru have been summoned to their sensei's office. While on their way there, Boruto tells Sarada and Mitsuki about his last mission bodyguarding the daimyō's son Tentō and how the two had become friends despite the rough start they had. In Konohamaru's office, the trio are presented with a B-rank mission and though apprehensive at first about the challenges, after hearing that elite shinobi such as the Fifth Kazekage undertook such missions while still a genin they are stirred to do their best on the upcoming mission. While on his way from Konohamaru's office, Boruto finds the extremely rare card that he has been searching for and soon realises that Tentō must have sneaked it into his pocket. While he desperately wants the card, Boruto is adamant that he cannot accept it and decides to go sneak back to the Konoha Mountain Villa and give the card back to Tentō. While trying to find Tentō's room, Boruto overhears Ikkyu speaking with his bodyguards, distressed that Tentō has been kidnapped. Lingering long enough to hear the details of the ransom demands (500,000,000 ryō and the release of all the prisoners from the Hōzuki Castle) and that Ikkyu did not plan to alert anyone else of the kidnapping believing that there was a spy in his midsts, Boruto soon leaves the hotel and heads to Sarada's house. Startling the Uchiha somewhat, Boruto apologises and lets her know that he would be able to go on the mission with them which Sarada understands must be for something important. Meanwhile, a kidnapped Tentō is confused when his kidnappers reveal themselves and he sees Yamaoka before him. His actual kidnapper Shojoji soon reveals himself and explains his Corpse Clone Technique to the young man. Shojoji then mocks Tentō's love of shinobi while declaring that he himself was a shinobi though he did not feature on any collectible card. After being lifted and thrown to the ground, Tentō finds the shuriken Boruto had given him and makes a stand again Shojoji, who laughs off the endeavour before realising that the young man intended to kill himself. Moving with surprising speed, Shojoji is able to stop him before deciding that he would consume Tentō's brain and assume his identity. Boruto arrives in time to thwart Shojoji, and prepares to stand off against the Mujina Bandits.
