The Boruto manga is increasingly captivating as it unveils its plot and characters. One such intrigue revolves around the enigmatic Karma seal.
The Karma seal, a potent symbol since the inception of Boruto manga/anime, holds immense power yet conceals profound mysteries.
Why did Isshiki spend millennia searching for a suitable vessel?
As known, Isshiki Otsutsuki predates the ninja world's history, having resided on Earth for millennia. Initially inhabiting Jigen, his power exceeded the host's capacity. Hence, he relentlessly pursued a superior vessel.
But why did Isshiki invest millennia in locating Kawaki? Did he identify another potential candidate over the centuries? This leads us to the next enigma.
What makes someone suitable for the Karma seal?
Currently, Kawaki is known as the perfect vessel for Isshiki's Karma, while Boruto is aligned with Momoshiki. However, the criteria for compatibility remain elusive. This aspect remains unclarified.
Regarding Boruto, his lineage may contribute to his suitability, being a distant descendant of the Otsutsuki through the Uzumaki and Hyuga bloodlines. But what about Kawaki?
What makes Kawaki so special to inherit the Karma seal?
As previously mentioned, Isshiki spent millennia searching for a suitable vessel like Kawaki. He conducted numerous experiments on children in pursuit of a vessel, with Amado stating the countless casualties. This underscores Kawaki's exceptional nature, likely tied to his origins.
The true power of the White Karma?
Currently, Code is the sole possessor of the White Karma, renowned for its unique and distinct power compared to the black Karma we've seen.
While the black Karma is viewed as a 'vessel,' a parasitic form of power awaiting possession of a body when an Otsutsuki seeks to return, the White Karma doesn't directly become a connecting vessel but carries the Otsutsuki's power within. Black Karma attaches to the unfortunate host for an Otsutsuki's potential resurrection, while White Karma is bestowed upon those closest to the Otsutsuki.
It can be said that individuals with black Karma perish when overtaken by an Otsutsuki, while those with White Karma become a new Otsutsuki, retaining the owner's memories. White Karma is the antithesis of black Karma, though both facilitate the transformation into an Otsutsuki, albeit in vastly different ways. So, the real question posed here is, what is the true power of White Karma?
The connection between Karma and Byakugan?
In recent chapters, we've witnessed Boruto's Jougan transforming into Byakugan when under Momoshiki's control. Initially, Boruto didn't possess the Byakugan, despite being a descendant of the Hyuga clan. Yet, he now possesses these eyes. Could this be due to the 'union' between Momoshiki and Boruto?
With both Byakugan and Jougan appearing in the same eye, it seems Momoshiki cannot utilize Jougan while within Boruto's body. Therefore, if Momoshiki takes control of Boruto's body, Boruto's eyes will transform into Byakugan, resembling his original eyes. If this holds true, Jougan might be a significant weakness for Momoshiki, aiding Boruto against the Otsutsuki clan's control.
