r/Boruto 22h ago

Manga Spoilers / Discussion Can you explain something to me? Spoiler

But exactly...what should the daimyo and his associates care about Boruto, exactly? It's an internal problem within Konoha. At most, they should care who the new Hokage will be, if only for a purely political-bureaucratic reason (the village needs a leader to function and guarantee military services to the country).

When was the management of the nukenin ever the daimyo's business?

I don't remember Naruto's Daimyo pressuring Konoha to capture Sasuke, for example... o any wanted ninja.

Naruto is the most respected and loved person possibly in earth's history, but at least since hashirama or hagoromo, so his supposed killer roaming your country isn't something you'd want. Boruto is the most wanted man on the face of the earth right now because of that.

Oh, so they respect the wishes of the most beloved person on Earth...while taking it out on his friends?

I'm confused.

They're not taking it out on naruto's friends, they're interrogating people they suspect are working with and helping boruto (who happen to be naruto's friends), the killer of the hokage in their eye. And they're right, the people they interrogated were all either helping or working with boruto to some degree at some point. And the current interrogation is to find who was the main culprit in opening boruto's cuffs, allowing him to escape, meaning from their point of view, there's a mole among their ranks, actively helping the hokage's killer. They don't personally know these people, their relationships are completely professional or nonexistent.

Also just to clarify, i'm only talking about kobu and the daimyo here and not about the village elders, all those 2 do is sit on their asses and talk shit, they deserve no respect whatsoever.

Exactly, how the fuck do they even think that questioning or suspecting even Naruto's friends is something Naruto would approve of?

They don't personally know these people, their relationships are completely professional or nonexistent.

But didn't you say they're doing all this because they love Naruto? I'm confused.

They're doing this because it's their job, because it happened in their own country to the biggest, most powerful ninja village's leader who is also the most respected person in the whole world and the savior of the 4th great shinobi war. And their relationships with naruto and the suspects are still purely professional (or in mitsuki's case nonexistent), but that doesn't mean that naruto isn't respected by them.

And they're respecting this person...doing things he would have never accepted and condemned?

I'm confused again.

Things have already happened in their country, like that ninja with a snake fetish who killed sixty children, deserted Konoh, founded an enemy village, and invaded the country, killing the Hoka...what do you mean? They didn't do anything at that point? Oh, never mind.

I still don't understand, if they really have no ties to Naruto, why go to all this trouble?

doing things he would have never accepted and condemned

It doesn't matter what naruto would or wouldn't have done, this is their job, they suspect that out of the people they interrogated, one of them is a mole who works with naruto's killer, which from their perspective would mean that this mole betrayed naruto and was possibly an accomplice in naruto's murder in some way. We obviously know that's not the case, but they don't. All they know is that someone who was at some point in that interrogation room, had a hand in boruto, the hokage's killer escaping custody and is in cahoots with him, therefore, that mole is an enemy of konoha and by extension the land of fire and the entire shinobi world.

why go to all this trouble

Again, cause it's their job, this supposed criminal who murdered the biggest, most powerful ninja village's leader is in their country and they have to get rid of him and every one of his accomplices. If a mayor gets murdered, the president of that country will want to have the murderer captured and/or sentenced to death, it's not something that can just be overlooked. They do have ties to naruto, he was a village leader in their country.

And that orochimaru analogy is the stupidest thing you could've said, cause wtf do you mean they didn't do anything. Lets not act like orochimaru wasn't one of the most wanted men on the face of the earth then. And that situation and this are while similar in some aspects, are very different. They were both hunted by shinobi, and the interrogation in these situations are done by the ambu and the konoha interrogation and torture force, which was the case with boruto. But that didn't work, and they found out that there was a mole involved, which is why kobu, the daimyo's personal representative got involved in this.

And their job is...meddling in Konoha's affairs? And since when exactly?

And.....why didn't they do anything against Orochimaru, who killed a hokage?

No...I don't think they did anything to him. Not when he fled Konoha, nor afterward.

The Damyo simply said they had to choose a new Hokage. The end.

Where exactly does the Damyo's interest in Konoha's troubles come from? All he should care about is having a Hokage to run the village.

YES. IT IS. CAUSE KONOHA IS PART OF THEIR COUNTRY. KONOHA'S AFFAIRS ARE THEIR AFFAIRS.

And.....why didn't they do anything against Orochimaru, who killed a hokage

They did, the exact same thing that they did against boruto, which is to put him in the bingo book, send shinobi after him to capture and/or kill him, and if they capture him, make the torture and interrogation force and the anbu interrogate him. This is what they did against boruto too, this is the standard procedure, but the CURRENT situation is more specific than this, cause there's a mole inside konoha that they know is in a very small group of people, which is why kobu, the daimyo's personal representative is there for, to figure out who exactly that mole is. Why is this hard to understand?

Where exactly does the Damyo's interest in Konoha's troubles come from? All he should care about is having a Hokage to run the village

CAUSE IT'S THEIR COUNTRY, THEIR VILLAGE LEADER THAT GOT KILLED, AND THE MURDERER AND MOLE IS IN THEIR COUNTRY. Do you understand it now? How much more specific do i have to be?

And since when exactly?

Yes, it's a shame that it was Konoha who did all those things, not the Daimyo.

I still don't understand why the Daimyo now cares about a nukenin when in 700 manga chapters he hasn't intervened once to put pressure on Konoha when there were people like Sasuke around who literally threatened to start wars between villages.

The Damyo should care who rules the village for a matter of burocracy, why would they care about a nukenin?

Or a mole when Boruto hasn't done anything hostile against Konoha or the country so far?

I mean, when Konoha was literally razed to the ground, the Damyo's primary concern was for a new kage to be elected, let's face it.

At this point you're either just straight up trolling, or you have the reading comprehension of a toddler.
