'Boruto' chapter 37 release date, predictions, spoilers: Jigen defeats Naruto and could fight Sasuke next

The current story arc has reached a crucial point with Jigen finally facing Naruto right inside the latter’s home. However, many are expecting Naruto to experience defeat in “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” chapter 37 while Jigen goes to fight Sasuke next.

‘Boruto: Naruto Next Generations’ chapter 37 predictions: Naruto no match to Jigen?

There is no doubt that Naruto is one of the strongest ninjas there is, especially since he is the current Hokage. However, the recent events in the manga series have also taught fans not to underestimate Jigen’s abilities. This makes it quite tricky to predict who is going to dominate the looming battle in “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” chapter 37.

Some fans might think that Naruto will have no problem defeating Jigen and protecting Kawaki. However, it appears that Jigen has more tricks up his sleeves, such as when he just jumped out of Kawaki’s karma seal in chapter 36. The same thing might be applicable in his fighting strategies with Naruto. It is also important to note that Naruto is, technically, not alone in “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” chapter 37. Ino has been alerted, and Boruto knows something wrong is going on with Kawaki.

If Jigen ends up defeating (but not killing) the Seventh Hokage in “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations” chapter 37, many are anticipating him to bring Kawaki back to the dimension where he imprisoned a Ten-Tail Beast. It can be recalled that Sasuke was trapped in this dimension, but Jigen is likely unaware of his presence.
