268

Kawaki chases the assassin away, awakening Kae. Kawaki soothes her worries and escorts her back to her compound. He postpones his report to Naruto about the attempt on Kae's life, so that she could enjoy the coming school festival. The students are preparing for the festival, while the history play is coming along nicely as well. Seeing that things have gotten actually dangerous, Kawaki decides to leave Himawari out of the loop. Boruto and all of his former classmates show up for the festival as well. During the final rehearsal, Hana Sensei is struck with intense headaches, forcing her to go to the infirmary. Kawaki is set off, when he learns that Kae's butler is otherwise indisposed and begins looking for cloaked figures in the crowd, unaware of the actual cloaked figure watching from the rooftops. During the play, Kawaki and the teachers receive letters, that numerous paper bombs have been placed on school grounds, rigged to explode within 20 minutes. Shino, as well as Boruto and his former classmates all begin disarming the paper bombs. Meanwhile, Ehou informs their class, that Eiki has stayed behind to disarm a large cluster of paper bombs. Kawaki elects to go help, leaving Kae in Himawari's care. Kawaki arrives in time to disarm the main paper bomb and save Eiki. In the meantime, the assassin hits the class with smoke bombs, but Himawari steps in and takes Kae away, before she could be killed. As soon as Kawaki arrives to protect Kae, the assassin covers his escape with the detonation of many paper bombs, which in turn injure Hana Sensei. Kae starts to question whether Kawaki is there just to protect her. (Source: Wikipedia) Kawaki & Himawari Academy Arc: (8/13)
