According to “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” Episode 155 synopsis, shared by Twitter user OrganicDinosaur, Chouchou and her father, Chouji, finish their training session and head to a local sweet shop. However, to their surprise, all of the desserts that are made using red beans remain out of stock.

She overhears a conversation and finds out that a consignment of the red bean was intercepted by bandits. The bandits loot the red bean and sell it at a higher price in the market.

Due to the high demand and scarcity of red bean, it has become extremely difficult for the sweet shops to procure the raw material. Chouchou vows to deal with the bandits and resolve this situation.
