Boruto: Naruto Next Generations' Kawaki focused arc has reached an high new point in the latest chapter of the manga as people have seen Naruto and Sasuke get into a major fight with the presumed boss of Kara, Jigen. Jigen's been a complete mystery throughout the series' tenure thus far that gotten strange as each new chapter adds on to Jigen's power slate. Along with the reveal of his surprising Ant-Man like abilities, his full use of the Karma mark power has resulted in some incredible space bending abilities.

As teased in the last chapter of the series in which Jigen appears through a portal forced out of Kawaki's Karma power, Jigen unveils  that he can open portals to a completely new place. This is where he start his fight with Naruto and Sasuke.

In Chapter 37 of the series, Jigen appears to try and take Kawaki back to Kara's hideout. When Naruto refuses to give up Kawaki, and challenges Jigen to a fight, Jigen instead opens up a portal with his hand and whisks Naruto off to a new place. He tells Naruto that it's a place in which "Konoha doesn't exist" and plans to leave Naruto behind, but he's soon interrupted when Sasuke arrives in this dimensional space to save him.

This place ability is surprising, but is strong  less so given the hints that Jigen might have a tie to the Otsutsuki Clan. A previous chapter of the series had Sasuke following Jigen to a mysterious location in which it seemed to hint that Jigen could be a fourth member of the clan that came to Earth as a sort of scout.
