Boruto IS Momoshiki Now?! Boruto Chapter 25

Boruto and Momoshiki are no longer two separate beings fighting for control. They’ve become one. In Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 25, we expect to uncover what happened to Boruto and why Momoshiki was listening to him in Chapter 24 — especially why Karma stopped affecting him during the resonance with Kawaki. This isn’t just a mental fusion or a temporary truce.

It’s a complete and possibly irreversible assimilation — one that integrates genes, chakra, knowledge, and consciousness. They’ve become a whole new entity — a one-of-a-kind symbiosis with no precedent in history. To grasp the depth of this transformation, let’s revisit Kurama’s revelation before his death. When he spoke about his bond with Himawari, he didn’t say he was merely “inside” her. He said they became “an entirely new being.” That wasn’t a metaphor — it was a literal statement.

Now project that same concept onto Boruto and Momoshiki, and you get something both terrifying and thrilling. This is no longer just the story of a boy and his demon. This is the birth of a hybrid god.

The Calm Before the Storm: The Mystery of Momoshiki’s Disappearance

After the timeskip, one of the biggest mysteries was Momoshiki’s sudden silence. He stopped making sarcastic comments and rarely appeared in Boruto’s mind. Naturally, this sparked theories.

One popular theory was that Momoshiki’s soul ascended to another dimension, like Shibai Otsutsuki, leaving behind an “empty” Karma. This Karma would still be powerful, but without Momoshiki’s consciousness. It made sense — especially with Boruto’s repeated remarks about feeling like he was dying whenever he tried to use Karma, a sensation tied to Momoshiki taking control.

And then there was Code’s claim: that Boruto (or Momoshiki) simply ran from battle. Cowardice? Not quite. From Boruto’s perspective, it was pure strategy. The battlefield was full of Claw Grimes — fragments of the Ten Tails. And in the Otsutsuki worldview, if the Ten Tails consumes an Otsutsuki, it becomes a God Tree, draining all life from the planet. If one Grime had bitten Boruto — who is already 82% Otsutsuki — it could’ve triggered a planetary apocalypse. So Momoshiki fled to preserve both his vessel and the potential chakra fruit. He saved Boruto to save himself.

In Chapter 25, following the shocking developments in Chapter 24 spoilers, which featured the intense Kawaki vs Jura battle and a major power shift—according to the Chapter 24 full walkthrough—we begin to understand why Momoshiki was suddenly subdued.

The Turning Point: Despair and Assimilation

It was likely during this time — possibly days or weeks — when Momoshiki had control, that something changed. Using his foresight, he could see countless futures. But none led to his full victory or a permanent takeover of Boruto’s mind. His plans kept failing due to unpredictable external factors — things like Sarada’s immunity to Eida’s Omnipotence. Sarada’s key role in disrupting Momoshiki’s foresight—due to her immunity—echoes her turning point in Chapter 20 Because of Love, where she awakens the Mangekyō Sharingan to change the course of battle.

Her interference wrecked his “golden plan.” Stuck inside an unbreakable vessel and facing a chaotic destiny, Momoshiki might’ve crumbled. This leads to a radical new theory: what if Momoshiki’s prophecy — that Boruto would suffer so much he’d beg for death — actually applied to himself?

What if Momoshiki, trapped inside Boruto, was the one who broke under despair? But even then, the “empty Karma” theory is too simple. Momoshiki didn’t vanish. He didn’t ascend. He wasn’t erased.

He was assimilated.

A Fusion Beyond Parasitism: The New Entity

The Otsutsukification process didn’t just rewrite Boruto’s genetic code — it began a two-way fusion. This wasn’t parasitism. It was symbiosis. Both beings changed so radically that they became something entirely new.

What did Boruto gain? Everything. Not just Momoshiki’s power — his essence. Over a thousand years of combat experience. Mastery of jutsu, chakra, and Shinjutsu. Genetic memory from a race that devoured worlds. All of Momoshiki’s knowledge and DNA are now part of Boruto. He doesn’t just use them. He is them.

And what did Momoshiki gain? Access to one of the rarest genetic blends in existence. Uzumaki vitality and massive chakra reserves. Hyuga Byakugan — a dojutsu tied directly to Hamura Otsutsuki. Through Naruto and Hinata, Boruto carries the blood of both Asura and Hamura — sons of Kaguya Otsutsuki. That’s a direct link to the goddess herself. Momoshiki didn’t just get a vessel — he got a genetic upgrade beyond imagination.

It’s like a scientist studying an ancient relic — then becoming that relic, absorbing all its power and history.

Parallel, Not Synchronized, Evolution

This exchange isn’t making Boruto and Momoshiki evolve in sync — they’re evolving in parallel.

Boruto is consciously trying to control this new being. Training with Sasuke. Creating new techniques like the Rasengan Uzuhiko. He’s trying to impose his will on the power within him.

Meanwhile, Momoshiki is adapting to this shared state. He’s no longer a parasite — he’s part of the whole. But that doesn’t mean he’s dormant. He’s evolving, finding new ways to assert himself. He can’t just take over the body anymore — now he must work within their unified mind, finding new loopholes to gain control.

This is no longer a battle for control over a puppet. This is a struggle for identity in a merged existence.

The Role of Kawaki: The Spiritual Jammer

What’s keeping this fusion from spiraling into chaos? One word: Kawaki. Kawaki’s emergence as a formidable rival is detailed in the article on Kawaki’s power awakening, which explains how his Karma and possible Shibai‑based shinjutsu give him the strength to act as Boruto’s anchor.

As discussed in earlier analyses, Karma isn’t just a mystical seal — it’s an alien data transfer system, like a USB drive of genetic info. When two Karmas resonate — especially ones as closely linked as Boruto’s and Kawaki’s — they interact like radio waves. They amplify, cancel, or interfere with each other.

This resonance gave Boruto more control. Kawaki’s presence acted like a spiritual jammer to Momoshiki’s signal. Their joint training forced Boruto to stay sharp and helped suppress Momoshiki’s influence.

But once Omnipotence separated Boruto from Kawaki, he lost that anchor. His Karma spiraled out of control. His attempt to use it to save Sasuke almost ended in catastrophe. Alone, Boruto couldn’t manage the new self he’d become — and Momoshiki surged forward again.

That’s why Boruto’s chilling request to Kawaki — “If it happens… kill me” — hits so hard. Kawaki is both his executioner and his last hope. He’s the only one strong enough to stop the monster Boruto might become.

Kawaki’s recent words — “Pull it together. Don’t let Momoshiki take over” — aren’t just stern advice. They’re a desperate plea. A reflection of their deep, unbreakable bond. Despite Kawaki’s hatred for the Otsutsuki and his desire to protect Naruto, he understands Boruto needs him. Their destinies are bound by Karma — and by fate.

Now, as they face Jura and his creations, their reunion isn’t just a power-up. It’s a return to balance. Kawaki’s presence brings back the resonance that gives Boruto precious moments of control — enough to fight back.

Kawaki isn’t just Boruto’s rival. He’s his anchor, his signal blocker, and perhaps his salvation.

Final Thoughts: A New Kind of God

This theory — that Boruto and Momoshiki have fused into a single, hybrid being — explains so much of what’s happened. It explains Momoshiki’s silence, Boruto’s instability when alone, and why Kawaki is essential.

We’re no longer watching the story of a boy and his inner demon.

We’re witnessing the rise of a hybrid entity with immeasurable potential, struggling to find balance and identity. The ancient power of the Otsutsuki has merged with the strongest genetic legacy of the shinobi world.

This isn’t just the next level of power.

This is a new paradigm.
