A lot is about to happen in "Boruto" Episode 227, from Boruto and Mitsuki's fight to Team 7's new mission. Konohamaru has his own task to make, so will he get the team's help on it?

The group stays at the Hidden Leaf Village, while Konohamaru chooses to stay behind. Despite that, Sarada informs Mistuki and Boruto that they can contact and reach Konohamaru.
From here, she asks Naruto if Team 7 will get the new assignment. The new episode will be called "Team 7's Last Mission."
Meanwhile, in "Boruto" Episode 226, Boruto and Mitsuki went to the arena after their names were announced for the fight. However, they were quickly disqualified from the Chunin exams after coming too late.
Sarada, Chou-Chou and others were all disappointed by what happened. Tsubaki and Denki, then, took center stage for the final round.
Tsubaki felt confident that he would win the battle. He now eyed to return to the Land of Iron as the candidate for a leadership position.
