History NightmareFuel / Boruto

* The newly created Divine Trees, having all become individuals after the Ten-Tails became sapient and divided into them, all now choose a new target to assimilate based on their still instinctual drive to consume, their conversations showing a disconcerting uncanny nature as they are all beings for whom sapience was until recently an alien concept. This targeted drive seems to reflect someone who has some kind of deep emotional connection to the person whose form they have taken. Jura, the one resembling Jigen/Isshiki, wants to consume Naruto, the primary cause of Isshiki's defeat and death (which means he may need to get to Kawaki and make him release Naruto somehow). Matsuri, resembling Moegi, wants to devour Konohamaru (her childhood friend). Hidari, the one resembling Sasuke, targets Sarada (his daughter). The currently unnamed Divine Tree resembling Bug chooses to go after Eida (someone Bug was terrified of but powerless against), and [[PokeInTheThirdEye he also reveals to her that he knows she's watching them]]. This ends up frightening Eida, even if she doesn't show it outwardly.

[[AC:''Chapter 5: Target]]

* When Kawaki laments that he's a nobody who won't be missed should something happen to him while Boruto is the Seventh Hokage's son, Eida's power proceeds to grant his wish by altering the memories of everyone on Earth (with the exception of Sarada and possibly Sumire, both of whom are somehow immune to Eida's entrancing power), making people think that Kawaki is the biological son of Naruto and Boruto is the adopted child who betrayed his family and tried to kill Kawaki. Everyone who was hunting down Kawaki is now going after Boruto, with Mitsuki even going so far as to attack Boruto with the intent to kill. The situation goes FromBadToWorse when Kawaki tells Eida to lie to everyone that Boruto killed Naruto and Hinata.

* Boruto manages to regain control of his body thanks to Sasuke and Kawaki's efforts...but Naruto has lost consciousness.

* Jigen uses Kawaki's own Kama to invade the Uzumaki house and from the looks of it, he's more than a match for Naruto.

* If what Jigen says is true, he plans on turning users of Kama into vessels for the Otsutsuki, which means he will turn Boruto into Momoshiki!

* After Sarada manages to land a blow on Boro, destroying the core that keeps his Scientific Ninja Tool in check, he starts swelling up like a balloon. But even then, he still won't die! That is until Boruto uses his Kama boosted Rasengan to finally destroy him. But... something is off about the boy. He grows a horn and his personality seems different. Almost like... Momoshiki Otsutsuki.

* Amado reveals what Kama really is - a compressed back-up of the Otsutsuki's biological data implanted into a target, allowing the Otsutsuki to resurrect themselves by overwriting the victim's genetic information with their own, and transcend death. In other words, Boruto will literally become Momoshiki via GrandTheftMe and CloneByConversion. What's worse, one of the few ways to prevent this from happening is to kill the host before Karma has fully manifested.

* As Boruto is poised to commit suicide, Isshiki shrinks his kunai and tells Boruto why he's been given the Kama: to use him as a sacrifice to the Ten-Tails, creating another God Tree, which would then annihilate all life. At this point, Boruto's just learned that he's either going to have his consciousness overwritten by an unimaginable evil or get ''eaten alive'' by a creature who will use his nutrients to bring about the end of the world, and his only chance of preventing this is his own death. [[Main/SarcasmMode So much for that promise of lightheartedness]].

* Don't worry, Naruto doesn't die...but Kurama does as a result of the Baryon Mode and he didn't tell Naruto this because he knew he would outright reject the idea. Kurama's death means that Naruto has become significantly weaker now.

* After Momoshiki resurrects Boruto using the Kāma, he explains that because of it, he is now 100% pure Otsutsuki. He notes that Code will realize this soon, and that being 100% makes Boruto a preferable target for sacrifice compared to Kawaki.

* Kawaki has decided that the only way to protect Naruto is to destroy every last Ōtsutsuki... and that unfortunately now includes '''Boruto''', since he's become physically similar to one due to Momoshiki's Kāma and the latter could take over Boruto at any moment. Despite Naruto and Hinata opposing his decision, Kawaki sends them away with the Kāma Rift to keep them from interfering.
