If that isn't going to be reflected in the future plot, at least in the anime storyline, then it would even make no sense to include these things in the current arc. Like I said, the eye has nothing to do with the creature, other than it can see it. Don't forget that Mitsuki can detect the creature's presence as well. There's no way that the creature is going to be Boruto's summoning animal.

It's called filler for a reason, dude. Iwabe, Sumire, and Denki were included in the arc yet they made no appearances in Gaiden, the movie, and the manga where we should have seen them.
