Boruto: Naruto’s Return Is Hiding a Bigger Disaster and Here’s Why

by

This article contains spoilers from the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga.

In the Boruto comic series, Naruto Uzumaki, a formidable ninja known for his immense power, has been absent for over 20 chapters after being transported to another dimension. This prolonged absence has left an empty space that many devoted fans find disheartening and upsetting, as they haven’t seen him in action in the Two Blue Vortex. It’s been quite some time since both Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha were actively participating in the main events.

In the world of Boruto, it’s widely anticipated that Naruto Uzumaki will reappear at some point in the future. Given the consistent storytelling by authors Ikemoto and Kishimoto, it’s unlikely they would write off such a significant character like Naruto. Therefore, we can look forward to his return imminently. Moreover, with the plot progressing as it is, Naruto’s comeback might not be far off. However, his return could potentially escalate the threats and dangers in the series to unprecedented levels.

Jura Could Force Naruto Uzumaki’s Return

Jura Only Wants Naruto at the Moment

  • Naruto Uzumaki is still absent in the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga as of chapter 24.
  • Jura might figure out where Naruto is and forcefully unseal him in the upcoming chapters.

As an observer, it’s tough to watch Naruto Uzumaki endure such hardships in “Boruto”. Not only has he lost Kurama, his son Boruto has sent him to a dimension where time stands still, supposedly for his own protection amidst numerous dangers. Unlike the original series where we cheered as Naruto battled on the frontlines, here he finds himself needing rescue and shielding from the upcoming shinobi generation.

In a less favorable turn of events, chapter 24 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has disclosed that Jura, who is essentially the embodiment of the Ten Tails, intends to pursue Naruto. Aside from Kawaki, Jura could potentially be another individual capable of releasing Naruto. He’s aware that Naruto is somehow still alive, and it might not take long before Jura deciphers his whereabouts and acts decisively to fully release Naruto.

Gazing deeply into your honest gaze, I am certain beyond a doubt. Isn’t Uzumaki Naruto still alive, as you know?- Jira and Kawaki

Fans understand that Jura takes his identity and purpose very seriously, and as leader of the Shinju Clones, he’s expected to lead by example. This means tracking down Naruto wherever he may be, since it’s believed Kawaki knows where Naruto is. Therefore, Jura will pursue Kawaki as a first step, using any means necessary – either compelling Kawaki to release Naruto or studying the inner workings of Daikokuten – in his relentless pursuit of finding and capturing Naruto.

Jura Could Kill Naruto Uzumaki Once He Returns

Jura Is Powerful Enough to Take Down Naruto

Observing the current scenario in the manga, despite the recent power-ups bestowed upon Boruto, Kawaki, and even Sarada, it’s evident that Jura holds an unparalleled strength. Even the legendary shinobi from the older generation, Naruto and Sasuke, whose abilities Boruto seems to have moderated, might not be able to match Jura’s power level at this point. If there exists a character who could potentially surpass Jura, it would likely be a member of the Otsutsuki Clan.

So far, fans have only caught brief glimpses of Jura’s abilities in previous Boruto chapters. Yet, it’s become apparent that Jura surpasses everyone else in terms of strength, chakra reserves, speed, and regenerative powers, which are currently far beyond those of the main characters. In a fight against Kawaki and Boruto, Jura even found time to jot down notes about his observations during the battle, as if he underestimated them, almost nonchalantly.

It’s evident that Jura possesses sufficient strength to defeat Naruto Uzumaki. In a direct confrontation, he potentially has the capability to eliminate Naruto permanently. Notably, Naruto is no longer at his peak, as he has lost Kurama. Moreover, there’s uncertainty about whether he can reactivate Baryon Mode due to its high cost. If Naruto manages to escape his seal and confront Jura, he might find himself at a disadvantage. However, this scenario could change if Naruto acquires a new power in the future.

Jura Could Achieve His Perfect Form

Jura Absorbing Naruto Might Be the Start of the End

Jura might be a villain who usually speaks before acting, but this doesn’t guarantee that he’ll be open to having a conversation with Naruto about love, his past battles, and his connection to Tailed Beasts. It’s equally plausible that he’d swiftly attack Naruto instead, much like how he pursued Boruto in the Land of the Wind without hesitation.

In the series “Boruto”, it’s clear that Jura holds Naruto in high regard, desiring him above all else. If he manages to absorb Naruto, which could potentially grant him his ultimate form, he would be incredibly powerful. This power would stem from Naruto’s battle expertise, knowledge, and the lingering energies of the other Tailed Beasts. Such strength might make Jura a foe on par with, if not surpassing, an Otsutsuki. Given this, eliminating Jura could be a critical task for Boruto and Kawaki to prevent him from causing global destruction.
