Fans are now getting sad with what will possibly happen to Naruto in Boruto Chapter 52. With the news of the shinobi's possible demise, how things will turn out from here?

Fans may witness Naruto's death in Boruto Chapter 52, which will continue with the introduction of his final form, per Devdiscourse. Despite his tragic fate, the Nine-Tails' jinchuriki will be all ready to face Isshiki and the latter will be in danger.

As their battle is about to ensue, Naruto will do everything to stop the Kara leader. Boruto's father will transform and sacrifice himself to save everyone in the Konoha village. Does this mean this will be the end of the fan-favorite character?

From here, Boruto has to step up his game and unveil his powers. As his father is going to be in danger, he cannot rely on him this time.

When Boruto sadly witnesses Naruto's passing, he may turn into Boroshiki after unconsciously activating his Jougan. However, things may turn out for the worse after Boroshiki tries to take Naruto's chakra from his "weakened body."

In addition, BlockToro noted Boruto Chapter 52 might end with a major cliffhanger and there may also be a time-jump after that. It has been a usual practice for the Shonen manga series to take a time skip to give the characters some room to grow and learn new powers without "dragging the storyline."

This may also happen in the new chapter as some fans predict the appearance of Momoshiki will occur and form Boroshiki to bring down Isshiki. Either the death of Naruto or Boruto's activation of his Jougan may also play as the cliffhanger.

As the manga series' illustrator, Mikio Ikemoto, hinted at the possibility of ending Boruto after 30 volumes, it is only fitting that Chapter 52 will end with a shocking revelation and time jump. The upcoming installment's VJump page confirmed it would feature Isshiki and Naruto's battle as its main feature and it may have an unexpected turn of events.

Boruto Chapter 52 is set to be out on Friday, November 20, at midnight Japan Standard Time. According to HITC, its release date and time will vary, depending on the region. So, international fans will see it drop at 9 a.m. Pacific Time, 11 a.m. Central Time, noon Eastern Time, and 5 p.m. British Time.
