Boruto has established that Kaguya betrayed her Otsutsuki partner Isshiki, leading him to inhabit the body of Jigen. Code, who deeply reveres Isshiki, harbors hatred towards Kawaki for being chosen as Isshiki’s vessel over him. Although Code never met Kaguya, it’s implied that he is aware of her betrayal, potentially fueling his animosity towards her. As Code crushes and cuts up Kara’s Ten-Tails, fans speculate that, in his mind, he may be seeking retribution against Kaguya for betraying and nearly destroying Isshiki.

While Code’s exact motivations are not explicitly stated in Boruto, his petty and mischievous character aligns with the idea of him harboring a grudge against Kaguya. Fans generally perceive Code as a lackluster villain with a feeble personality, often facing humiliation in the series. If Code’s actions indeed represent a form of vengeance against Kaguya, it adds another layer to his character, making him appear even more absurd as a villain in the eyes of the audience.
