It's pretty obvious, it's the curse marks,

in the war Obito used rods and chains with cursed marks to dampen tailed beasts

Kawaki in my opinion probably has a stronger dampening jutsu.

Cursed marks can basically be stretched to weaken naruto and sasuke thus the beginning of the first episode of boruto starts.
