• Code found Delta’s drone at the ruined battlefield and followed the trail, planning to blame Delta for Kara’s troubles if he could not capture Kawaki.

Code caught up with Team 7 and tried to take Kawaki back, forcing Itachi to fight him. As Code’s Kāma and Claw Marks turned the battle against Itachi, Boruto tried to draw on Momoshiki’s power.

Meihui Uzumaki arrived in time to save Itachi and swiftly overwhelmed Jigen, who fled through a spatial portal only to be struck by Meihui’s Rasengan inside Kara’s base.

Konoha launched an offensive against Kara, using Kawaki and Boruto as bait to draw out Jigen while Meihui, Naruto, Sasuke, and Itachi prepared to strike. Jigen learned that Kawaki and Boruto had arrived at Kara's base and was left wondering what they were planning.

• Kakashi left the planning to Meihui, Naruto, Sasuke, and Itachi, who chose to send Team 7 with Kawaki and Boruto as bait.

Naruto and Sasuke pressured Jigen while Team 7 wore down Code, and Itachi recognized Mask was deliberately fighting poorly. Delta joined the battle, but Boruto and his teammates tricked and defeated her.

• Naruto and Sasuke coordinated attacks on Jigen, who dodged them while worrying that his body could not withstand more Ōtsutsuki power.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki reincarnated in Jigen’s body and overwhelmed Naruto and Sasuke, but they fought back without fear. Meihui watched from nearby with Uchiha Shizuku, confident the two could handle the battle.

• Code escaped with his Claw Mark, still believing Lord Jigen would come for him, though Jigen had died after completing Isshiki’s reincarnation.
• Ōtsutsuki Isshiki struck Naruto and Sasuke out of their transformations, then used Daikokuten’s Black Cubes and Black Rods to pin them down and disrupt their senses.

• Ōtsutsuki Isshiki questioned Meihui about his transformation into an Ōtsutsuki, but Meihui activated Moon God Mode instead of answering.

Meihui killed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and consumed the chakra-rich fruit his body became, but discovered that the Ten-Tails had been moved. Isshiki passed his will to Code, while Meihui returned to Konoha and then remembered he had left Shizuku behind in the Alternate Dimension.

• Meihui restrained Isshiki, drained his chakra, killed him before he could place a reincarnation Kāma, and swallowed the blood-red fruit formed from his body.

• Code told the siblings about recent events, including Jigen’s fall, but Ada asked why they should help him.

Code enlisted Ada and Daemon to help attack Konoha, promising not to hurt Kawaki. After Amado warned Kawaki that Momoshiki could summon more Ōtsutsuki and that Boruto would die if Momoshiki were removed, Kawaki learned Naruto already knew and resolved to protect his new home himself.

• Kawaki left Naruto’s home and asked Amado how he could become stronger; Amado explained that the new Kāma contained no trace of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and would serve only as a tool.
