I want the plot to kill Naruto and Sasuke ( Hence, great character development for Boruto and Sarada. Also, it will make the series more interesting ). When Naruto and Sasuke die, I want Boruto, Sarada, Mitsuki along with everyone like Denki, Iwabe, Metal, Shikadai, inojin to also become mainstream and become a lot powerful. They should gives some Hax to the side characters too to make them relevant.

I agree. From what we've seen, apart from the Nue Arc, Boruto's classmates, and even those from the Old Gen, are completely out of the loop with what's happening. Even with the Kawaki scene, it's just Boruto alone fighting him. Granted, it could be like when Sasuke and Naruto were fighting Kaguya and everyone else was fighting Obito/Madara/Zetsu...etc, and maybe Kawaki has fellow Konoha destroyers with him, but we don't know yet. I also have a hard time believing that the big fight with Kawaki is the end. Maybe the end of Boruto and the beginning of "Boruto Shippuden" for lack of a better name. I feel like there's a lot that Ikemoto can work with, starting with the characters he's already introduced.

As far as Naruto and Sasuke getting killed, I wonder if Ikemoto can deal with the kind of backlash he might get from the fans. I know I would be upset as someone who grew with all of the characters. At least have them incapacitated or something. Naruto apparently is in some form already by the time he confronts Kawaki. So idk. I'm interested to see how he approaches it.
