Boruto Places Naruto in New Danger

 Boruto: Naruto Next Generations continues the action and thrills of the Kara Story arc. Naruto and Sasuke have both been taken down by Kara's mysterious leader Jigen, who also happens to be Kaguya Otsutsuki's partner, Isshiki. Boruto and his Team 7 comrades Sarada and Mitsuki joined Kara's would-be vessel Kawaki into another dimension, where Jigen has imprisoned Naruto in a seal container. However, the all-new Team 7 finds one of Kara's fiercest enforcers, Boro, guarding Naruto's prison in the other dimension. Now, Naruto has gone from being simply imprisoned to facing a much grimmer fate at Boro's hands!

As it turns out, Boro is a foe who is able to unlease deadly new attacks that combine classic jutsu and modern scientific ninja tools. Team 7 appoints Sarada as official leader, and between her and Mitsuki, they are able to strategize well enough to figure out the source of Boro's Black Mist jutsu power, and stop it. Team 7 puts up one of their most impressive fights yet in order to bring Boro down once his mist is thwarted, but it's just not enough to stop the Kara enforcer's uncanny might. Instead, the attack only forces Boro into pursuing a much more extreme strategy: in order to break the bond of focus and harmony between Team 7, Boro decides to target Naruto's prison.

As Boruto chapter 41 ends, it seems that Boro's plan works like a charm: having bonded so closely with Naruto while being his ward, Kawaki has a major emotional reaction to seeing Naruto placed in danger, and speeds off in pursuit of Boro. It wouldn't be surprising if Boruto chapter 42 opens with the surprise that Boro is bluffing - and that the real danger is the Kara enforcer now getting his hands on Kawaki again!
