Chapter 66 ended on a major cliffhanger with Kawaki awakening Otsutsuki Isshiki’s powers through his reconstructed karma and engaging in battle against Borushiki. He fatally impaled the latter after Boruto regained consciousness and asked Kawaki if they had to use the “last resort.”
Various theories have popped up among fans trying to predict what kind of a turn the manga storyline will take after this, but there is no way to confirm any of these possibilities until chapter 67 is released.
Major Boruto manga spoilers ahead.

What can we expect in the upcoming chapter
Chapter 67 will probably address three major issues, the most important being Boruto’s condition. While the younger Uzumaki was shown lying on the ground motionless with a gaping hole through his chest, his death has not yet been confirmed.
Being the protagonist, he is bound to come back to life, though how that would happen is still unclear. Some of the more popular theories include the return of the jougan, or the use of a cyborg created by Amado as his vessel to reincarnate into.
The next issue that will likely be addressed is the outcome of Kawaki’s action. Even if Boruto is saved, Kawaki’s relationship with Naruto has been irreparably damaged, meaning that he will probably leave Konoha village.
Whether he will accompany Code or leave by himself is what remains to be seen. Amado’s reaction to Kawaki’s decision might also appear in the chapter, considering that he was the one who secretly reconstructed the latter’s karma.
Finally, the chapter will also show Code’s reaction to this fiasco. Fans were worried that Shikamaru would meet his end at Code’s hands but with things as they stand currently. He will probably let him go, either escaping by himself or with Kawaki in tow.
