Preview for Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 6 suggests that Mitsuki will confront Boruto upon his return to the Hidden Leaf Village. After Eida switched Kawaki and Boruto's places, Mitsuki believed that Kawaki was his "Sun" and not Boruto. Consequently, he wanted to kill Boruto, convinced that he had killed the Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki and his wife Hinata, and threatened Kawaki's life, which led to Mitsuki oozing out bloodthirst for revenge.

Upon discovering Boruto's return to the Hidden Leaf Village, Mitsuki may have made the decision to confront and eliminate him while he has the chance. His resolve is further illustrated by the activation of his Sage Mode in the preview image.
The rough English translations for the same indicate that Mitsuki had been anticipating this moment. Despite Sarada's plea for him to wait and hear Boruto's story first, Mitsuki insisted that she move out of his way, as he was no longer able to control himself.

What Mitsuki said to Sarada (translated from Japanese):
"I don't know what he said to you, but get out of my way, Sarada... I am now... Unable to control myself."
Fans can anticipate that Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 6 will showcase the long-awaited battle between the two ex-Team 7 members. The previous chapter preview only revealed an illustration from the beginning, leading to the assumption that the latest preview also hints at a significant event from the chapter's start. As a result, fans can look forward to numerous new developments in the upcoming manga chapter.
Editor's P/S
As an enthusiastic fan of the Boruto series, I am thrilled about the upcoming Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 6. The preview image featuring Mitsuki in his powerful Sage Mode confronting Boruto upon his return to the Hidden Leaf Village has me eagerly anticipating the chapter's release. The previous chapter left us with many unanswered questions, and I can't wait to see how the story unfolds.
The possibility of Mitsuki unleashing his Sage Mode against Boruto is both exciting and concerning. Mitsuki's unwavering loyalty to Kawaki and his belief that Boruto is responsible for the deaths of Naruto and Hinata have created a tense situation. The preview suggests that Mitsuki is determined to eliminate Boruto, and the activation of his Sage Mode indicates that he is prepared for a serious confrontation. I am curious to see how Boruto will respond to Mitsuki's hostility and whether he will be able to convince him of the truth.
