Boruto episode 8: Captain Taiki assassinated by someone on the ship

In episode 8, the Shinobis made it out of the straits and managed to escape from the Funato clan. They were on their way to the Land of Water and captain Taiki was quite happy since he was going to be compensated for the loss of his boat.

The crew went to sleep and they woke up to extremely bad news. Captain Taiki was murdered and everyone suspected Kyoho since he had a blood-stained cloth.

However, they decided to find some proof before accusing the ex-criminal. Iwabe continued to be suspicious of the giant as he went on a rampage while assisting Kawaki and Boruto against a member of the Funato clan. The giant is unable to justify himself and the rest of the team decided to conduct some investigation.

One of the rescued members decided to come out as an eyewitness who blamed Kyoho since he was walking near the captain’s quarters. Kawaki displayed his brilliance as he found it extremely suspicious for multiple reasons. He explained the plan to Iwabe and Boruto and decided to lay a thorough trap for the sneaky Funato clan member to show up.

Kawaki made it look like Kyoho was killed and the perpetrator decided to steal his blade after his death. Everyone stood there waiting for him. He was cornered and decided to blow up the engine and kill himself so that no information about the Funato clan would be extracted from him.

Denki immediately tried fixing the engine but his efforts were futile. The episode ended with the team mentally preparing themselves for the hardships they might face in the next couple of hours.
