Due to the chaos in Konoha, 5 twists fans might get in Boruto chapter 79

1) Kawaki’s name in the bingo book

After making Naruto and Hinata disappear with Dai-kokuten, Kawaki went for his plan to kill Boruto. But the plan failed due to the interference of Sarada, Sasuke, Shikamaru, and Mitsuki, and Kawaki left after Momoshiki helped him escape.

In Boruto chapter 79, Kawaki may escape from the village and plan to kill Boruto again. Additionally, having been involved in several revolting acts, Kawaki could be considered a rogue. Furthermore, as word spreads to other villages, they will also look for him. So, it’s likely that his name will go in the bingo book in Boruto chapter 79.


2) Boruto learns to use Jougan

In Boruto chapter 78, we saw that Sarada tried to get in between Kawaki and Boruto’s fight. Meanwhile, Kawaki was ready to kill Sarada. Boruto jumped in to save Sarada; that was when he got a scar on his right eye similar to the post-time skip.

When Boruto opened his right eye, Momoshiki took control of him, and Jougan appeared in his right eye. In Boruto chapter 79, Boruto might train with Sasuke to learn how to use Jougan without giving control to Momoshiki. At the beginning of the Boruto series, it’s seen that Boruto can manifest Jougan and control it as he wills.


3) Eida and Daemon leave Konoha

Eida seems to be cooperating with Shikamaru. She helped Shikamaru find out the reason for Naruto and Hinata’s absence. Eida also confirmed to Shikamaru that Kawaki was planning to kill Boruto again.

Eida already mentioned that she has special feelings for Kawaki. She came to Konoha to live close to Kawaki and learn more about him. But if Kawaki leaves Konoha, Eida and Daemon could also leave the village. And, due to Eida’s power to make anyone fall under her charm, no one can stop them.


4) Boruto’s vision comes to reality

Boruto chapter 75, titled The domain of God, showed that Boruto had a vision through his Jougan that Shikadai, Chocho, and Inojin surrounded someone near the Hokage-face stone and said that friends didn’t act like that. Additionally, in that vision, Boruto saw Sarada saying she found the one they were looking for. Mitsuki was also in Sage mode and stated that he was furious.

In Boruto chapter 79, it is possible that the authorities will launch a search party for Kawaki, while Shikadai’s team, Sarada, and Mitsuki will try to stop him. As they are Boruto’s friends, it seems like they are angry because Kawaki intends to kill Boruto.

On a different note, they may be fighting Boruto. Momoshiki could take control over Boruto again and go rampant in the village. But the fact that Kawaki is also present in the vision makes this theory hard to prove for Boruto chapter 79.


5) Code’s appearance in Konoha

As seen in chapter 77, Eida revealed Kawaki’s plan to Shikamaru. Code was creating soldiers by splitting the Ten-tails, named “Claw Grimes.” Eida confirmed that the number is still growing. Also, earlier chapters showed that Code had a grudge against Konoha because Daemon tried to kill him, and he ran away.

After the disappearance of Naruto, the village will be in chaos, and this could be the perfect chance for Code to attack Konoha. Also, Code is too powerful after his limiter was removed. Shinobis from Konoha will have a hard time tackling him. The scene could take place in Boruto chapter 79 or chapter 80.


Final thoughts

Fans are already stunned after the release of Boruto chapter 78. It has shown many key events and indicated that the Boruto time skip is near. The internet is surging with predictions from the fandom.

But the suspense remains for Boruto chapter 79. War will likely break out, which will take a toll on Konoha. It’s just a matter of time before we see how the new generation of Konoha handles the situation.
