Do you think one of the themes of this new manga will be "Ninjutsu/Ninja way vs Technology"?

The villain(s) might use advance technology like the ones seen in the Boruto movie. Not too advanced but designed to counter ninjutsu and all.

A ninja tech tool that absorbs any jutsu. A ninja tech tool that teleports you anywhere. A ninja tech tool that functions like a pokedex. A ninja tech tool that induces genjutsu or counter genjutsu. etc

Without a doubt. I mean in twelve years they went from scrolls to laptops. So it will make a difference.

The new theme will be "burrito or salad"? It will be about which tastes better?

It's just my personal preference, but I don't like that "technology vs magic (or its analog)" theme. Never liked it in Harry Potter, or any fantasy where only evil uses machines while good guys stick to nature or whatever (where it is usually a ham-fisted environmental message). So I hope that, even if it is present, it's not literal. After all, ninja use technology too, and Naruto didn't want Boruto to use the device only because with it, it wouldn't be a test of his own power. I'd be fine with the villain using devices to counter ninjutsu, but only as long as it doesn't bear the "let's stick to the old ways forever, progress is bad" subtext.

Burrito > Salad except Fruit Salads
