The next episode of "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" could finally show the culmination of the Byakuya gang filler arc. While the current storyline is a minor departure from the manga series, the previous episodes posed a great moral question to the characters, particularly to Naruto's eldest child, Boruto. In spite of the Byakuya gang's seemingly noble act of distributing the wealth of the rich people to the poor, the Leaf Village is determined to put an end to their operation in episode 47.

"Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 47, titled "The Figure I Want to Be," will feature the titular character and Shikadai Nara facing the remaining members of the Byakuya gang. Previously, Shikadai was having doubts if he should fight the group, especially that his close friend Ryogi is one of its members. Moreover, Shikadai understands the Byakuya gang's noble cause, although it became clear that the group is also capable of harming innocent people. 

To recap, Shikadai figured out the next step of Ryogi and the Byakuya gang, and along with Boruto, he was able to reach the thieves' location. At this point, it looks like the Byakuya gang has nowhere else to go but fight, as the only person that could help them carry out its plans had turned against the group. The Seventh Hokage also expressed his desire to make the Leaf Village a better place for its citizens, and this will happen if criminals like the Byakuya gang are banished.

The face-off between Boruto, Shikadai and the Byakuya gang will be an awesome moment to witness in "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 47. It will be interesting to know how the young ninjas of Konoha will fare against Ryogi, who has a rare ability to use the Kekkei Genkai technique of Ice Release, thus making him a difficult opponent. The episode could also delve deeper into Ryogi's reason for protecting the Byakuya gang leader Gekko, who according to him had saved his life before.

It is rumored that the episode 47 of "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" will be the last of the Byakuya gang arc. After this episode, it is not certain if the anime series will proceed with the next major arc of the story, which will follow the original storyline of "Boruto: The Movie."

"Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 47 will air in Japan on Feb. 28th.
