Momoshiki has played a significant role in the Boruto: Next Generations manga, and it looks like he might be making a return sooner than expected following the events of chapter 12 in the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga.
How could Momoshiki’s return happen? Chapter 12 reveals that God Tree Jura used a Biju Bomb shaped like a laser to attack Boruto, penetrating his body below the chest. Although the attack missed his vital organs, Boruto suffered severe injuries that caused him to fall and drop Hidari’s Thorn Soul Bulb.
Boruto had greatly valued the Thorn Soul Bulb, as shown by his reactions. He would not have dropped it unless he was unable to hold on to it.
Meanwhile, Jura appeared intent on killing Boruto after successfully stealing Hidari’s Thorn Soul Bulb. This implies that the God Tree may continue to pursue Boruto in the next chapter.
It is surprising to think that Kawaki might come to Boruto’s aid in this situation. Despite his previous intent to kill his adopted brother, Kawaki might attempt to save him to gain intelligence and possibly join forces against other God Trees.
However, fans know that without his karma powers, Kawaki is relatively powerless. It’s likely that he will soon rely on the power once again.
This could pave the way for Momoshiki Otsutsuki’s return to the manga series. Previously, Boruto was unable to control his karma, and when Kawaki activated it, Boruto’s karma resonated and began to activate. This caused Boruto to panic and retreat.
Now, with Boruto heavily injured and unable to resist the activation of his karma, he might once again lose control of his body to Momoshiki Otsutsuki.
Moreover, the potential capabilities of Momoshiki are unknown, especially considering Boruto’s enhanced endurance and power sealing.
