## Summary [ ]

Team 7 approaches the Funato fleet. Ikada is notified, and allows them to approach. Boruto comments that the ship is one of Kajiki's, which he lent them when they said they wanted to meet with Ikada. Ikada destroys the ship with a waterspout, whilst Mitsuki is pulling Boruto and Sarada onto the Funato ship. Kirigakure listens in on their conversation from afar. Ikada tells Boruto not to ask anything ridiculous, threatening to kill them. Boruto wants the Funato to stop the war, and Araumi laughs. Boruto explains he spoke with Chōjūrō , who agreed to stop fighting if the Funato stop as well. Araumi and Ikada both can't take the Mizukage at face value. Misuno isn't surprised by their lack of cooperation, but Chōjūrō says they promised Team 7 some more time. Araumi says they won't leave the ship alive, and leaves to attend another matter. Ikada assures them he intends to fight until one side goes down. Boruto reminds him of his dreams of building a big ship, sailing the world with it, connecting islands and people by trading goods. Ikada says those dreams died with Seiren, and manifests several waterspouts around the ship. Metal informs his team-mates and the swordsmen that Team 7 went aboard a Funato ship, and they get concerned. Buntan thinks joining up with them is the best way to get revenge on the Funato. Ikada blames them for the death of his sister, brother, and Funamushi, and claims that even if Kirigakure is destroyed or they die, his hatred will never be abated. He says that Seiren always protected him, and that he felt inferior for being the only one in his family without powers, claiming that wanting to become a shipbuilder was an excuse he tried making himself believe. Now that he has power, he will use it to lead the Funato and destroy Kirigakure. The waterspouts subside, the Funato's mobile fortress arrives, the Shinonome 1 in firing range of its charging Chakra Cannon . Araumi takes a boat to the mobile fortress, which Kawaki notices. Sarada and Mitsuki tell Boruto he's tried more than enough. Boruto says he understand how Ikada feels, recalling his own feelings about Kagura 's death, and once again asks to end the war. Ikada hits him, telling him he's abandoned the past. Sarada says they're also putting aside the feelings of losing people dear to them to stop the war, and Mitsuki adds that there are people who need the Shinonome 1. Ikada calls Kobuna in to confront Boruto. Boruto comments on how Kobuna is like him when he lost Kagura, Ikada saying Kobuna will never abandon his hatred until he kills Boruto. Ikada claims he'll put his sword away if Boruto brings him the Mizukage's head. Kawaki spies on Araumi, having followed him to the chakra cannon on the mobile fortress. Boruto can't do what Ikada asked, but offers up his own life instead.
