Minato Namikaze and Sasuke led Konoha’s forces against Otsutsuki Urashiki, who pursued Karasuki and overwhelmed the defenders. Minato used Sasuke’s Amenotejikara and Mu Yue’s Six Paths Sage Art Scroll to land a devastating strike, but Urashiki escaped through a portal as Minato collapsed.

• Minato Namikaze took Karasuki from Boruto and used Flying Thunder God to draw Otsutsuki Urashiki away while Sasuke tried to hold him off.

After Otsutsuki Urashiki’s attack, Sasuke planned to leave Konoha with Karasuki to keep the village safe, while Boruto chose to accompany him. Sasuke shared the story of Itachi’s sacrifice with young Uchiha Itachi, but their plans changed when Minato Namikaze reported that Mu Yue had returned.

Sasuke and Boruto stayed in Konoha under Mu Yue's protection, while the chapter ended with the injured Otsutsuki Urashiki encountering a monk in the Land of Rivers.

• The Sage of Six Paths asked Mu Yue why another Kaguya had appeared, and Mu Yue explained that he had brought her from a parallel world to prepare for the Otsutsuki Clan.
• The Sage of Six Paths gave Mu Yue a powerful surge of Chakra, leaving himself too diminished to empower his descendants to seal Kaguya.

Boruto spent a restless day in Konoha, gave up on training because of Momoshiki’s Karma, and followed Obito to watch Anko’s team train. He joined Obito’s special exercise and left Anko’s teammates impressed with his Harem Jutsu.

• Boruto woke from a dream about Momoshiki, found Sasuke’s breakfast and note, and wandered around Konoha after deciding not to train.

Meanwhile, Mu Yue and Orochimaru failed to find a way to study Karma Seal compatibility, and Mu Yue kept searching for ways to protect Boruto as he monitored his disciples’ Life Missions.

• Obito demonstrated Sage Art: Rasengan - Azure Flame, blasting a huge crater into the training ground and impressing Boruto and Anko.

• Mu Yue and Orochimaru’s Karma Seal experiments killed their test subjects, and Mu Yue refused Orochimaru’s suggestion to study Boruto directly.

• A bounty ninja watching Naruto and Sasuke in the Shopping Street decided to keep investigating rather than risk kidnapping Naruto inside Konoha.

• Little Sasuke told Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke about the fusion and Obito's offer to trade Kamui for the Rinnegan, prompting Sasuke to suspect this world's Obito and plan to probe him.

Sasuke questioned Boruto about his time with Obito, while Mu Yue arranged for Kaguya Otsutsuki to take Naruto to the park. After Kaguya Otsutsuki defeated two bounty ninjas targeting Naruto, Sasuke discovered her identity; meanwhile, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki contacted Otsutsuki Urashiki to join forces against Mu Yue.
