Boruto's grandfather Hiashi's birthday is approaching and there's going to be a small family celebration. Boruto is chosen to select a birthday present, but he doesn't know what will please his grandfather, so he visits the Hyuga household and sneakily gathers information.

Boruto has a dream about the day he defeated Momoshiki Otsutsuki. It ends up bothering him so much that he can't focus on his mission. He then meets Tento, the son of Ikkyu Madoka—the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire—who’s in the Hidden Leaf for a meeting with the Hokage.
