The boy is flustered, and the other man tells him the boy was with him the whole time. Boruto remains certain he fell in the ocean, despite everyone else saying otherwise. Kagura recognises the man as Kajiki, a prominent shipbuilder from an island north of Kirigakure. The boy boasts Kajiki is the best shipbuilder in the whole Land of Water, and is reprimanded by Kajiki.
