"On a highway"

A blonde boy wearing a black cloak, light brown boots, a dark jacket with blue lines. Two bandoliers of knives in the shape of an x over his chest. A scar over his right eye and wearing an eye patch. A sword in its scabbard on the right side of his hip, a whip on the left. Many empty cars with the doors open around him, dried blood on some. Severed, rotting, limps in, out, and under the vehicles. Grey clouds in the sky. The sound of motorcycles approach the boy. The boy looks ahead and sees multiple bikers approaching. Five people arrive, they circle the boy

Leader: Well, well, well. Looky what we've got here.

Follower 1: You looking a little lost.

Follower 2: And it looks like he's got some good weapons.

Follower 3: We can put those to some real good use.

Follower 4: Yeah! Hahaha! I've got my eye on that there sword.

The leader whistles and they all stop

Leader: Let's a make a deal. You either come with us, or we kill you and take all your shit. Your choice.

Boy: Why should I? Why should I listen consider either choice?

Follower 3: Is he stupid?

Follower 2: Sounds to me he's got a death wish.

The leader aims a crossbow at the boy

Leader: Speak your name, so I may say it before I shoot you in the left eye.

Boy: Boruto. Boruto Uzumaki, and I don't have a death wish. All of you do.

Leader: Is that so? Hmph. Thanks for entertaining us with that bullshit.

Boruto sees the leaders finger close in on the trigger. Boruto ducks down as the arrow releases and hits the man behind him

Follower 2: Oh shit!

Boruto grabs his whip and uses it to grab the already reloaded crossbow, and shoots follower 3. Boruto grabs a knife and throws it straight into the second followers skull, then uses his whip to slit the fourth followers throat. 2, 3, and 4 fall off their bikes

Leader: How? How did you do that?

Boruto: You learn a thing or two being out in the world like this since it starter three damn years ago.

Boruto grabs the handle of his sword, spins, and throws it. The sword goes into the leaders left eye, and the leader falls down

Boruto: Rest in peace, shit bags.

Boruto grabs his sword from the leaders eye, and then his knives. Boruto puts the crossbow around his shoulder, and gets on the leaders bike

Boruto: A Yamaha, and a classic one two. Not bad, for a complete idiot.

Boruto starts the bike, turns it around, and rides it in the direction the bikers came from, a small smile on his face

"Several hours later"

Boruto continues riding on the motorcycle. The wheels go over a trip wire and multiple arrows pierce through the wheels. The motorcycle goes down, and Boruto rolls on the ground. Boruto jumps off the ground with his hands, grabs the crossbow and aims it, then lands on his feet while looking around

Boruto: Whoever's there better make yourselves known now! If you're friends with those bikers, they're dead.

Many men and women come out of the bushes on the sides of the highway. Some holding pistols, revolvers, shotguns, and machine guns, all aimed at Boruto
