That Ninja Academy Arc from Boruto: Naruto the Next Generations goes on easily. But behind this facade of light-heartedness, a conspiracy begins to unfold that could lead to the failure of the secret mission assigned to Kawaki.

In Boruto 267, the legendary trio of Konoha, composed by , returns Sannin Orochimaru, Tsunade and Jiraiya. However, this is not a reunion among friends, also because the hermit of the toads disappeared a few years earlier, but a theatrical performance organized by the students of the Academy.

The protagonists of this original anime saga lead the rehearsal for the piece they plan to bring to the school festival. While Kae plays the role of Lady Tsunade, Eiki gets Jiraiya and Osuka plays Orochimaru. Unfortunately, Kawaki has the unfortunate role of playing the snail Katsuyu. In Boruto 267, Himawari plays the role of his grandfather, Minato.

To support this piece, students must wear gods handmade front cover, but somehow word spreads that Kawaki has a real one. In an attempt to unmask him, Eiki, now in the role of the snake Manda, attacks his rival and destroys the entire set of the school play.

Almost everyone didn’t spot Kawaki, including Kae, causing the mission to fail. It was only thanks to the intervention of Osuka, who now partially knows the truth, that Kawaki was not spotted by his companions.

At the end of the episode, while Kae is in the infirmary, there is one attack. Apparently, the ruler of the bamboo land wants to make Kae his successor. However, there are those who seem to disagree. A killer is hiding among the boys at the Ninja Academy.
