Based on the information, chapter 72 will not be released in July, but later this year in October.

Naturally, fans are upset about Boruto: Naruto Next Generations going on a month-long hiatus and took to Twitter to express the same. One of the main reasons why they seem to be annoyed is because the series releases its chapters on a monthly basis, and fans are trying to understand the reason behind this purported hiatus. While there is no official information regarding the reason for the hiatus, fans are waiting for an official confirmation of the same.

Another fan was quite hopeful and didn’t mind the hiatus as long as the series decided to announce another Ultimate Ninja Storm game along with an announcement for the Code arc as well. That being said, it is highly unlikely that another Ultimate Ninja Storm game will be announced sometime soon.
