Katasuke gives Kawaki one of Naruto's spare prosthetic arms, infused with chakra. Amado doesn't find anything during Boro's maintenance. In the meantime, Delta's surveillance drone arrives and connects to a machine, which releases another body for Delta out of a pod. Boro and Code ridicule her for losing, while she rants about the Seventh Hokage and Kawaki protecting each other. Jigen arrives and tries to calm the Inners, but Delta reveals that Koji is still hiding in the Leaf and that Boruto also has a Karma. Jigen deduces that Momoshiki left it on the boy. Shikamaru assigns Konohamaru, still in mourning, to watch over Kawaki. In the evening, Kawaki decides to learn ninjutsu from Naruto, and the next day, they, along with Mitsuki and Boruto begin training. Boro overhears Code and Amado talking and finds out about the investigation, but seems uninterested in finding the traitor. Meanwhile, Sasuke teaches the basics of the Chidori to Sarada, before going on a mission with Sai, leaving her to train. Team 7 and Kawaki meet up in the afternoon and Boruto buys some Ninja Cards for Kawaki and himself. Kawaki gets a card of Minato Namikaze, The Fourth Hokage and Boruto's grandfather, so he decides to trade it with Boruto, who already has an abundance of Seventh Hokage cards. That night, Kawaki fixes the broken vase, but there is a piece still missing. Deciding to go back out to find it, he tries to leave while Naruto is asleep, but he is stopped by the manifestation of Kurama, the Nine-Tails.

Kurama reveals to Kawaki that the Five Kage tasked him with watching the boy while Naruto sleeps, and he tells the boy Naruto's life story, showing how similar they are.

The next day, he fights through a traumatic memory of Jigen and succeeds in using chakra control to climb a tree, while being watched by Team 7 and Naruto. He asks Naruto to teach him the Shadow Clone Jutsu. Later, as they walk back home, Team 7 decides to get back into training, but Kawaki proclaims that he wants to do something back home. The others relent, but not before Boruto tells Kawaki that he's not alone anymore. Kawaki finally opens up and starts talking about Jigen and how they need to worry about him. In the afternoon, Sarada continues training to use the Chidori. Meanwhile, Sai confirms to Shikamaru Jigen's identity as leader of Kara, based on the data Konohamaru had retrieved. Shikamaru, still distrustful of Kawaki, is relieved to learn that Sai had already sent Sasuke to investigate the coordinates gathered from the airship, with Sai revealing that it is in another dimension, accessible only true Space-Time Ninjutsu. Sasuke arrives in the separate dimension, at an Otsutsuki Shrine. Meanwhile, Boro addresses his cult, further mesmerizing them with the idea of Otsutsuki saviors who'd use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to deliver mankind to salvation.

After discovering Kinshiki and Momoshiki's holographic displays placed in pairs, and another unknown Otsutsuki paired with Kaguya's display, he realizes the grave threat Kara poses. After Boro delivers a speech to his chanting cult, which paints the Otsutsuki Clan as the saviours of the world and Five Great Nations as the villains who defeated them, he reveals to the crowd, that there is still hope, because he has met another Otsutsuki "god", who will save them. After his speech, one of his cultist's brother tries to bring her sister back from Boro, claiming that the Inner is a fraud. Boro reveals his regeneration ability to the assailant, and after his sister leaves on Boro's orders, he is silenced by the cult leader. As Sasuke ponders on the identity of the unknown Otsutsuki, he hears monstrous grovelling from beneath the hologram platform. To his shock, he discovers an immobilised juvenile Ten-Tails, but before he could do anything, Jigen arrives and Sasuke identifies him because of the Karma seal on his chin, that was in the data. Jigen approaches the Tailed Beast, saying that it is not time for it to devour him yet and proceeds to siphon chakra from the creature. As the massive amounts of chakra enter Jigen's body, the Karma activates and slowly begins turning his body into the Otsutsuki partnered with Kaguya. Jigen voices his desire to visit the two Vessels, Kawaki and Boruto, before disappearing.

Naruto wakes up and finds Kawaki searching for the last piece of the vase. He tries to dissuade the boy from searching any further, stating that he had made up for it already, which leads to an argument that ends with Kawaki telling the Hokage, that he isn't his son. Koji Kashin is still surveying Kawaki, and wonders why Jigen hasn't made a move to take Kawaki back yet. While training with Mitsuki, Boruto's Karma suddenly activates, as if it was resonating with Kawaki's again. Worried, they hurry back home. Meanwhile, Sarada buys flowers from Ino's shop and as she leaves, Ino detects a massive chakra signature entering the Leaf, almost making her faint. Back at the Uzumaki house, Kawaki's Karma activates and Jigen steps out from the portal it created, shocking Naruto and Koji, who realized that the entire Vessel Retrieval mission was all an act on Jigen's part, to test the Inners' loyalty. Jigen politely apologizes for entering with shoes on and tells Naruto, that he'll leave immediately, if his "son" comes with him. Kawaki refutes by shouting, that he never considrered Jigen his father. The Hokage refuses, so Jigen surprises him with chakra absorbing rods. Konohamaru and another jonin protecting the house try to attack Jigen, but are quickly dispatched as well. Kurama helps Naruto and they enter Nine Tails Chakra Mode, so that Naruto can battle Jigen. Realizing that his taijutsu skills are not enough, and that he can't use any of his strong ninjutsu, since they're in the Leaf, Naruto ends up with a huge disadvantage. Jigen begins charging a massive attack that would claim many casualties, Kawaki gives himself up to save Naruto and everyone else. As they are about to leave, Naruto steps in once more, saying that Kawaki is part of his family. Annoyed, Jigen decides to warp away with Naruto. They end up in Kara's dimension, and Jigen decides to end Naruto once and for all here. Suddenly, Sasuke surprise attacks Jigen and helps Naruto out.

Koji managed to sneak his Toad into Jigen's portal to survey the battle. Team 7 returns to the Uzumaki Household and Kawaki reveals that Jigen took Naruto, Mitsuki manages to calm them by stating, that Kawaki's arm is still working, meaning that Naruto is alive. Ino contacts Shikamaru and informs him of the situation. Naruto and Sasuke quickly realize, that they are outmatched by Jigen if they rely on taijutsu, as he is physically stronger. As Jigen keeps absorbing their jutsu and cornering them, Naruto uses the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu to cover for Sasuke, while he recovers. After dispatching the clones, Sasuke figures out Jigen's ability: to shrink and enlarge both himself and various objects, such as the rods he uses to pierce them on several occasions. Jigen decides, that Sasuke must be eliminated first, because of his troublesome ocular jutsu and intellect. The duo powers up and continues with abundance of massive attacks, trying to overwhelm Jigen, managing to corner him for a moment, in which he has to teleport away. Annoyed, Jigen sprouts his horn from the Karma, prompting Sasuke to reveal that he knows that Jigen is an Otsutsuki connected to Kaguya, and that he has a juvenile Ten Tails chained down. Sasuke states that they must defeat him now at all costs, before generating his Perfect Susano'o, while Naruto goes into Tailed Beast Mode. After keeping Jigen on the defensive for a while, they are surprised when he manages to get close enough to easily punch Sasuke out of the Susano'o, severely injuring him. Naruto tries to uses his tails to crush Jigen, but he too is outmaneuvered and knocked out of Tailed Beast Mode, before the both of them get immobilised by multiple rods. Jigen states that it'd be too much trouble to kill Naruto and Kurama, so he must seal him in place, and kill Sasuke because of his troublesome Rinnegan. Before he could do anything, the black hole on Jigen's abdomen starts to crack. Naruto tries to rile him up, but Kurama calms him down, stating that they can't defeat him at the moment. Jigen states that he has an interest in Boruto, because of his Karma, angering Naruto. As Jigen tries to kill Sasuke, he teleports back to the Leaf, after some convincing by Naruto, collapsing in front of Sakura. As Jigen seals Naruto away, his abdomen cracks even more and he starts to cry. A voice inside him states that Jigen's pathetic body is at a limit, before revealing himself to be Isshiki Otsutsuki. Koji is surprised by what he has seen. Back at the Uzumaki household, Kawaki's arm deactivates as he holds a picture of the Seventh Hokage, scaring him.
