Somewhere in a kara hideout.
Waking up inside a plastic bag with an inhaler and seeing black-colored liquid rushing towards yourself through a tube was not a good feeling.
That's what he felt; Shiro felt scared, and rightfully so. The black liquid rushed and rushed, with each passing second bringing it closer. But for Shiro, each second felt like an eternity, as he had no idea what was happening.
The liquid entered the plastic bag and filled the clear water inside the bag. At the same time, a mind-numbing pain assaulted his entire body; each and every cell in his body was screaming.
He flailed his limbs as he screamed for help, to lessen the pain, to set himself free...
But no one came. Instead, an even stronger and searing pain shot through his left side, from his palm to the entirety of his left side of the body.
The pain was so unbearable that he couldn't stand to bear it a second longer and passed out, without even knowing what had happened to him who was sleeping peacefully in the sofa before he woke up here.
·3RD POV·
"Lord Jigen," A man with glasses and calculative look called out as he pointed at the three surviving children, one of them was a kid that Jigen had brought a day before.
Kawaki had black hair with small patches of yellow on the undersides. The other was Shiro, with shoulder-length messy white hair. The third child was named Code, with red hair.
"Bring them down," ordered Jigen, a monk-like man with a bald head and a ponytail from the back of his head, he had a black diamond-like mark on his chin.
He wore traditional clothing, unlike the man in front of him who wore a black shirt and jeans along with shoes; Jigen had sandal-like footwear.
His presence alone was oppressive to the atmosphere, and as he looked at the three children laid down on tables, he saw two of them had an unusual white-colored karma, unlike the black one he normally saw.
"Hm, leave them alive; I will have to see what that white Karma will do myself," he ordered, then turned to look at the third one. "I knew you would not disappoint me, Kawaki." He smiled slightly and left the room.

Waking up once more, he tried to remember what has happened to him, but all he could remember when tried was the pain, so much pain that he could not help but shut his eyes and pray.
He was living a normal life, and suddenly he woke up to this... this horrible nightmare. So, he just closed his eyes and wished that when he opened them, this would all be gone.
Then again, it was all for naught. He opened his eyes and couldn't help but let tears fall from his eyes.
He didn't know he had such a cruel fate waiting for him when he was living happily with his adopted family.
He was an orphan adopted into a small family when his parents had died. His first introduction to pain was when his parents were mugged in front of him.
And now, this...He didn't want to imagine what would happen to him now. He didn't even know how he ended up in this small body.
He was living a perfectly normal life in his regular home with his typical family. He had a job as an accountant and was even engaged to his girlfriend.
"Wha-" Before he could even understand why he thought about that, unfamiliar memories rushed into his mind. Memories of leading a perfectly normal life, having a normal family, and living without any significant issues. He saw memories of someo- no himself.
Not only memories, but it seemed that he had been transmigrated into this unfortunate body he now inhabited. The first few memories he experienced before his own memories returned were those of this unfamiliar body.
He understood what had happened now. He had been killed in a terrorist attack on a flight, but he didn't fully die; instead, he had been transmigrated into the Boruto universe. It appeared that he was now a Karma-bearing 'Tool' for Jigen, much like Code.
Just when he was about to stand up, someone forcefully pushed the cell door open. That's right – he was in a cell! He couldn't believe this bullshit.
A woman entered with a scowl on her face entered the cell. She forcefully dragged him towards another door, opened it, and shoved him inside.
She had long, curly, blonde hair and light purple eyes with yellow eye-shadow, featuring vertical lines running through her pupils and irides.
In the center of her forehead, there is a green tattoo of the Roman numeral "I." She also wore yellow lipstick and donned a black cloak.
'Delta,' he recognised her after regaining his memories. He decided to focus on what comes next. He had already died in his previous world, so there was no use in dwelling on it.
He felt a pang of sadness, knowing he couldn't see anyone important to him anymore, but he couldn't let that haunt him.
This world is extremely dangerous, so he needed all the willpower he could muster. That's precisely why he couldn't afford to dwell on the fact that he could never see his loved ones again – his mom, dad, and fiancée.
He had to survive in this world, where power was the ultimate currency, and he had the opportunity to gain that power delivered on a silver platter in the form of Karma.
Inside the room that he was shoved in by the woman, stood two kids just like himself, one was exuding a confident aura and the other was shaking in fear not knowing where is he or what is happening.
Obviously, the first one was Code. He was incredibly powerful in the show and manga, but he kept taking L's left and right. It was even said that he was stronger than Jigen without his limiters.
The second one was Kawaki, a seemingly normal kid with an extremely troubled past. He later became so obsessed with Naruto that he locked him and his wife up in a timeless dimension and turned Boruto's life upside down.
'What a bitch,' he thought as he went to stand beside him, he suddenly felt an enormous oppressive aura radiating from behind them, freezing him in place..He could tell the others were also in the same spot like him..
"I am Jigen, and I will take good care of you."
