Chapter 608 Kawaki's Method
Jiraiya also took a big gulp of wine.
“It’s sad just thinking about it.”
"Naruto didn't want to see Boruto get killed, but Boruto didn't want to be controlled by Momoshiki to hurt Naruto, so he chose to die at the hands of Kawaki who wanted to protect Naruto."
"Naruto didn't want to see Kawaki and Boruto become enemies, but they ended up becoming enemies anyway."
"The battle between the two also reduced the village to ruins."
"Neither of which Naruto wants to see."
"But none of them can be changed by Naruto, who has been eliminated by the times and abandoned by fate."

Mansion
A hint of pity flashed in Uchiha Guang's eyes.
"When Boruto regains consciousness, it will be very painful, right?"
She couldn't imagine what Boruto, whose body might be taken over by Momoshiki at any time, had experienced before he was killed by Kawaki?
How desperate those days must have been...
Ninja World
"Momoshiki can control Boruto's body, but can't absorb ninjutsu? Can't Kedge absorb ninjutsu?"
"Although he has lost the Rinnegan, Sasuke should still be able to use the complete form of Susanoo. He is still a strong man at the top of the pyramid of the ninja world."
"It was like a dream...Sasuke's Magatama Samsara Eye was stabbed away just like that."
"The situation is very critical now. Naruto is no longer able to fight. Sasuke just lost his Samsara Eye. Kawaki... I don't know how strong he is, but he can't be Momoshiki's opponent."

Hearing Boruto's words, Naruto's pupils trembled and his face looked nervous.
[As long as I find the Ten-Tails hidden by Isshiki and feed you, Kawaki, to it, I can reap the rewards.]
As he said this, Boruto walked towards Kawaki step by step.
Kawaki's eyes were filled with anger: [One by one, that's enough! You all treat me as an item that you can dispose of at will! ]
Boruto said with disdain: [How dare you, a mere living sacrifice, express your opinion so arrogantly? ]
Sasuke drew out the Kusanagi sword and slashed at Boruto who was approaching.
Boruto raised the kunai in his hand to block it.
Sasuke formed a seal with one hand, and lightning flashed from the Kusanagi sword.
Boruto leapt backwards.
Sasuke's eyes moved to the palm of Boruto's hand that was injured by Chidori's electricity.
'This guy. ’
“The attack just now could have been easily absorbed with the wedge, but…”
Boruto slowly spoke: [Uchiha Sasuke, do you want to kill your beloved disciple? ]
Sasuke narrowed his slightly tired eyes, his tone revealing determination.
[Even if it comes to the point where I have to kill you... I've already prepared myself mentally.]
[It is precisely because he is my apprentice that I want to...]
Sasuke suddenly used the power of Mangekyō.
【Amaterasu! 】
Boruto dodged it with two consecutive backward jumps, then formed a seal to create a shadow clone to block the last blast of black flame, and then jumped a few more times to hide behind a rock.
[It's like this again, is it really like this? ]
Kawaki ran over to Sasuke.
「That guy……」
Sasuke spoke up and stated his analysis.
[Boruto consumed too much chakra and fell into a coma. This incident can be seen as the fuse that led to Momoshiki's appearance. 】
[On the other hand, as long as the chakra can be replenished, Boruto's consciousness may be restored. ]
Kawaki asked: [Is there any basis for this? ]
[The wedge is the basis. He has no intention of using the wedge to absorb ninjutsu.]
[Because he was afraid that absorbing the ninjutsu would cause Boruto's chakra to recover.]
【This is the only reason.】

Ninja World
"I see."
"I thought Momoshiki couldn't fully control Boruto's body."
"As expected of Sasuke, he saw Momoshiki's weakness at a glance."
"Naruto lost the Nine-Tails, Sasuke lost the Samsara Eye... The gods who protected us became mortals in the new era."
"It's already quite difficult for Naruto and Sasuke to defeat the Otsutsuki. If they lose their power, what will happen to the ninja world in the future?"

Behind the rocks.
Boruto whispered to himself: [It seems that Uchiha has already discovered it. ]
[I really can't let my guard down against him. Although he is seriously injured now, I'm afraid I won't get any good results if I fight him head-on. It's time to use that trick.]
not far away
[Force him to absorb chakra...]
Sasuke said: [First get close to him, then use Fire Style at close range, you have to get close enough that he can't do it without the wedge.]
Kawaki on the side reminded: [If you are not careful, you may lose your life. ]
[At least it's worth a try. His target is you. If I fail, you can escape on your own...]
As soon as he finished speaking, Sasuke was hit by a flying Rasengan and flew backwards.
It happened so suddenly that Kawaki was stunned.
【Hello! 】
Sasuke fell to the ground and coughed twice in pain.
[The Rasengan disappeared...?]
Boruto, who appeared not far from them, laughed.
[Although I have suffered from this ninjutsu before, I have to say it is very useful. Although it cannot kill with one strike, as long as it can hit the vital point, it can still make people suffer. ]
Sasuke covered his chest which was hit by the Rasengan and shouted to Kawaki: [Run! Run!]
[It's useless. You have nowhere to escape.]
Boruto walked towards Kawaki and said, "Feed should be treated like feed. Wait for death obediently."
Kawaki recalled in his mind what Boruto had said to him.
"It's not just because of the wedge. Since we've been together for so long, your business is my business. How can I just sit back and do nothing?"
Boruto kicked Kawaki and sent him flying backwards.
Kawaki endured the severe pain and looked at Boruto who was controlled by Momoshiki.
In the memory, Boruto stretched out his fist towards him.
'Right? Bro.'
Kawaki murmured in his heart.
"Since we met, you have been causing me more and more trouble."
Seeing Boruto's hand pointed at him, already unleashing his ninjutsu, Kawaki began to see flames coming out of his body.
He roared, increasing the flow of chakra.
Momoshiki, who was controlling Boruto, was startled.
'what? '
'This is not a doppelganger, he is burning himself with fire.'
'Is this guy crazy?'
[It's rare to have a living sacrifice, how can I let you die like this? ]
As he spoke, Boruto used a wedge to absorb all the flames from Kawaki's body.
Kawaki was completely exhausted and fell down.
……
Ninja World
"Is Kawaki willing to set himself on fire in order to restore Boruto's consciousness?"
"Even when he killed Boruto, Kawaki still had feelings for Boruto, right?"
"Kawaki must have thought that Momoshiki would hurt Naruto to make such a decision! This guy would never do such a thing for anyone other than Naruto."
"Don't mention it, Kawaki is quite smart. I can't think of this method even if you give me a day."
"I was very happy to hear that Momoshiki recognized Konohamaru's Rasengan, but when I think about what will happen to Boruto in the future... I can't be happy anymore."
"The quality of the clothes is really good. If it were mine, Boruto would have stye in his eyes."
