Boruto isn't important in Shikamaru's objectives because he is just the son of the Hokage. Any ninja can succeed Naruto, that's what he thinks. If he dies, well, let's bury him, let Naruto mourn, and let business continue. In the shinobi world, the strong live, the weak die. No Naruto knows better than that, Shikamaru knows better than that. In the Hidden Leaf at least, The Strong protect the Weak. The Weak don't die.
