Manifestation…!!

" Manifestation…!! " ( 顕現…!! , Kengen…!! , Viz: Manifestation!!) is chapter 43 of the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga.

## Summary [ ]

Mitsuki and Boruto explain to Kawaki what the Chidori is. Sarada destroys Boro's core, causing his scientific ninja tools to go haywire. Boro swells up and goes on a rampage, attacking the surrounding area. Kawaki explains he's unfocused, but he can still hurt them, so they should focus on saving Naruto instead, who Mitsuki points out might be strong enough to defeat Boro. Since they can't risk breaking the seal, Kawaki suggests using their Kāma to gate the space inside the seal with where they are, similar to how they got there. They're successful in freeing an unconscious Naruto, and Kawaki notes he should be ok since his prosthetic hand is still functional. Mitsuki is suddenly slammed down by one of Boro's newly grown tentacles, knocking him out. Kawaki counterattacks with a Kāma blast, and Boro punches him through the terrain, also knocking him out. Sarada attempts a Fire Release , but Boro grabs her in his overgrown hand before she can finish her hand seals and squeezes her. Boruto kicks him in the elbow, freeing her. Boruto attempts to check on her, but is knocked away by Boro. Boro punches Boruto into the ground, knocking him out, but Boro's second punch hits just the ground, Boruto having vanished. Boruto floats above Boro, having become possessed by Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki ; manifested a horn, his Kāma extending through his entire right side, and his right eye appearing featureless.

Sarada watches as "Boruto" berates Boro as an inferior creature. Perceiving Boruto as an Ōtsutsuki , Boro attempts to punch him, but Boruto destroys his arm with a kick and tosses him aside with another one. Talking about himself in the third person, Boruto comments he's almost out of chakra, so he flies down to Naruto and absorbs some from him. Boruto continues to toss Boro around as Mitsuki wakes up and observes. Boruto lands an enormous Rasengan on Boro, leaving only a few appendages and a crater behind. Kawaki wakes up and asks Mitsuki what's happened, who isn't sure. Boruto talks to himself it's still ways away he'll lose it all, before his horn and Kāma recede, and he begins falling from the sky. Mitsuki extends his arm and catches him. Boruto asks what happened, having no memory of it. Sarada notes Boruto seemed like someone else and that Kāma appears to be more dangerous than they thought. At a Kara facility, Koji arrives, and is informed by Amado that Jigen is still not even 10% recharged. Koji asks about Boro and Code , who are respectively guarding Naruto and the Ten-Tails . Amado asks Koji if he's going to do it, and he confirms he's taking Jigen down.
