Manifestation…!!

With Boro's core shattered by Sarada, the enemy's scientific ninja tools spin out of control and he balloons into a mindless, flailing giant. Kawaki reasons that although Boro can no longer aim, his blows still land, so the team should prioritize freeing Naruto, whom Mitsuki believes could overpower the monster. Rather than break the seal directly, Kawaki uses his Kāma to bridge the sealed space with their own and pulls the unconscious Hokage loose, noting he should recover since his prosthetic hand still works.

Boro's rampage cuts them down one by one. A tentacle flattens Mitsuki, a punch hurls Kawaki through the ground, and Boro seizes Sarada mid-technique until Boruto kicks him free of her and is himself smashed into the earth. When a second strike hits only dirt, Boruto reappears in the air above Boro, transformed: a horn juts from his head, his Kāma spreads across his right side, and his eye turns blank. Momoshiki has taken hold.

Speaking of himself in the third person, the possessed Boruto mocks Boro, wrecks his arm, and flings him around before draining a little chakra from Naruto to keep going. A massive Rasengan reduces Boro to scattered limbs and a crater. As the horn and mark recede, Boruto drops from the sky and Mitsuki stretches an arm to catch him, leaving him with no memory of the fight and Sarada shaken by how alien Kāma has proven. At a Kara base, Koji learns from Amado that Jigen sits below ten percent recharge, and he resolves to bring Jigen down.
