When Kawaki attacks Momoshiki, the latter prepares to break his arm. Naruto and Shikamaru arrive just in time to stop Momoshiki and release Kawaki, who is upset that the Seventh Hokage has left the village and tells him to return back.

After telling Naruto that he will go to any length to stop the Otsutsuki, Kawaki begins fighting Momoshiki. He uses Sukunahikona and Daikokuten well and pierces Momoshiki's body with chakra rods. Naruto saves Momoshiki, who is in possession of Boruto's body, from being crushed by the giant cubes.
The Uzumaki patriarch then questions Kawaki about his readiness to kill Boruto. Kawaki responds that, while Boruto is Naruto's son, Momoshiki is a demon who must be destroyed.
Boruto chooses to die
In Boruto episode 292, to Momoshiki's surprise, the young protagonist awakens and regains control of his body, claiming that Amado's drugs have partially worked but admitting that there is no solution to the fundamental problem. Kawaki asks him if he recalls what he had said previously. Boruto does remember and says they should go ahead with the plan as long as he can keep Momoshiki at bay.
Naruto becomes nervous as he has no idea what they intend to do. Boruto apologizes before launching him into the sky with Wind Release. The episode ends with Kawaki punching a hole through Boruto's chest, shocking everyone.
A quick summary of Boruto episode 291
In the previous episode, Code introduced himself to Boruto out of respect for the Otsutsuki. Unfortunately, he was set on sacrificing the young Uzumaki to Ten Tails. Boruto battled Code, who claimed that the blond protagonist did not understand how to use Karma properly and only used it to gain more power and speed. He emphasized that the true essence of Karma lies in the Otsutsuki's battle experience, which can even turn the most novice fighter into a warrior.
Boruto collapsed from exhaustion after failing to land a hit multiple times. At this point, Momoshiki took control of Boruto's body and decided to attack Code with a massive Rasengan.
