Well 'the same place' is mostly interpreted as a different dimension where Naruto could be captured or transported to. Since Naruto can't jump dimensions he could be captured or stuck there. But then again if that done,then Sasuke can easily rescue Naruto. If Sasuke is killed and then Naruto is captured,then that could be a possibility. The reason people don't want to believe that Naruto or Sasuke could be dead is because they are very powerful and almost unmatched in strength. BUT if the plot requires it then Naruto can die, even if he is very powerful his death could be the next plot twist or cause a important change in Boruto's life ,there were many important deaths in Naruto like jiraiya and itachi to advance the plot
