Considering the fact that Boruto said that he'd SURPASS Naruto, I don't really think he'll be able to do that while naruto is alive. And he himself says his father has only a little part in the story and the fact that kawaki said on the first few pages, I think it's most likely that Naruto had died.

Here's what I think, Boruto will probably be taken as hostage and then Naruto won't be able to fight at his full potential and he'll then finally die protecting Boruto.
