Synopsis[]
At night, Boruto thinks back to being possessed by Momoshiki after Isshiki's defeat while playing a video game. During a Five Kage video conference, Shikamaru explains they've discovered destroyed Space-Time Gates in several locations, which they believe would be access points to Kara's headquarters in another dimension. Naruto also raises his concern of no longer being able to investigate the dimension is search of Kara's Ten-Tails, but believes it won't pose a threat soon, as the enemy no longer has a suitable sacrifice to cultivate a God Tree. They discuss Code's goals and motives, and agree to put the highest priority on finding him. The other Kage express some apprehension on the fact most of the intel they have comes from Amado. Naruto confesses to not fully trusting him, but finds him reliable enough due to his contributions against Isshiki. The Kage ask Naruto what he'll do if Boruto becomes a threat due to his Kāma, and Gaara points out that with Kurama's loss, Naruto might not be strong enough to take down another Ōtsutsuki, so he might need to take action before Boruto gets taken over again.
Himawari is saddened by Kawaki no longer being able to use Naruto's prosthetic. Sumire visits Kawaki, and takes him to have his arm restored by Amado. Katasuke is impressed by it. Kawaki advises them to beware of Amado. Mitsuki notices Boruto's dejected attitude. Katasuke informs Naruto of the acceleration of Boruto's Kāma progression. Naruto wishes to inform Boruto himself. Amado asks Katasuke on the progress of him becoming a member of the Scientific Ninja Weapons Team. Sarada finds Mitsuki by himself, and he tells her that Boruto is staying awake out of fear of Momoshiki taking him over. Naruto and Sasuke discuss Boruto's Kāma, and Sasuke reveals he promised Boruto he'd take him out if he became a threat. Naruto informs Boruto of his predicament, and comforts him. Boruto can no longer stay awake and falls asleep. Amado approaches Naruto, and offers him a drug he developed to weaken the Byakugan, that might help in preventing Boruto's Ōtsutsuki progression. He explains that he microdosed Kawaki with it for a long time, so Jigen wouldn't notice, which is why Kawaki's progression took longer. Amado also points out that since Boruto has Byakugan potential, he might experience side effects that Kawaki didn't. He admits that he was concerned about Naruto not being able to take action like before, but also reveals he knows what it is like not wanting to lose a child, having had a daughter who died twelve years prior. Naruto gives Boruto the medication, who begins taking it immediately. Mitsuki and Sarada notice the change in Boruto's attitude, and wonder if they'll be able take missions again. Amado is accepted as part of the Scientific Ninja Weapons Team, and gives data for Sumire to compile. Kawaki returns the prosthetic to Naruto, who asks if he wants to become a genin. Kawaki says he'll think about it. Naruto tells Shikamaru he wants to host another Chūnin Exam, to make up for the one that Momoshiki's attack sidelined.
