Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Episode 217 Recap
Here’s everything that unfolded in the previous episode:
- When Naruto and Sasuke were cornered by Isshiki, Boruto tried to negotiate with him. However, Naruto suddenly changed the whole situation.
- He handles Isshiki easily and displays a massive chakra in his new form, thus shocking everyone.
- Even though Isshiki attacks him fiercely with enlarged rods thrown at Naruto, he still manages to dodge them and instead hit Otsutsuki with his Rasengan.
- All of this is possible because Naruto turns into his Baryon Mode, one where he combines his chakra to that of Kuruma’s making him a powerful Hokage with a new form of energy.
- But this is risky as it could drain his life force and Isshiki also becomes aware of this danger on Naruto’s body.
- In another scene, we saw Kawaki’s prosthetic arm which runs on Naruto’s chakra, and it slowly starts deteriorating.
- After knowing that Kawaki is connected to Naruto’s chakra, he summons him and goes after him, however, Sasuke releases a smoke bomb to blur Isshiki’s vision.
- In anger, he captures Naruto and threatens Kawaki to come out of his hiding.
