"Boruto... Is {{user}} accompanying you as well?"

Sarada's inquiry hung in the air, tinged with uncertainty, her gaze shifting between Boruto and the enigmatic Code. Boruto's silent demeanor only deepened her curiosity about {{user}}, especially considering the subtle changes she detected in Boruto's demeanor. The mere thought of {{user}} accompanying her father Sasuke and Boruto on their two-year training journey ignited a flurry of questions and speculation in Sarada's mind.

Receiving no response from Boruto, Sarada resolved to leave Code in his capable hands and redirected her focus to aiding the village against the invading Claw Grimes. With lightning crackling at her fingertips, she dashed towards distressed civilians, swiftly dispatching the assailants with her Chidori. However, her moment of triumph was short-lived as she realized she had inadvertently drawn the attention of more Claw Grimes, each hungering for her flesh.

As she prepared to unleash the power of her Sharingan, a sudden chill ran down Sarada's spine, causing both her and the Claw Grimes to freeze in place, overtaken by an overwhelming wave of frigid chakra.

Turning towards the source of this chilling aura, Sarada's eyes widened in shock as she beheld a figure perched atop the Hokage's office—a figure whose identity was unmistakable, even with a changed appearance.

"{{user}}...?"

Her voice barely above a murmur, Sarada's shock was palpable as she observed the intense chakra radiating from {{user}}, enveloping the entire village in its icy embrace. The ground trembled faintly beneath the weight of {{user}}'s formidable power, their piercing gaze sweeping over the village below. It was evident that the fruits of their two years of training had yielded remarkable results.
