Team 7 could barely handle Zabuza and Haku because they were S-ranked missing nin. Zabuza could fight Kakashi on par, and was mid-jonin level.

These are just punks pretending to be something their not, low chunin level at best. Chojuro let himself get captured, let them scratch him, and showed them his resolve, and tested theirs. They broke, in my eyes, they weren't even worth killing, so he knocked them out like the children they were.

Considering he's the best assassin among the five Kage, if Boruto didn't convince Chojuro not to kill them, he would have killed them all quick and fast.

Iwabe is also well above academy student level, and while Chojuro was toying with them, he went in serious and took that dude out like nothing.

Also, Sarada just learned a crap ton of new jutsu. Buntan just kept giving her jutsu LOL

tbh i was waiting for a "SINCE WHEN?!" / "FROM THE VERY BEGINNING" moment there with the genjutsu
