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

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has delivered a lot of thrilling moments for fans over the past few years, largely focusing on the iconic characters from the previous generation: Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha. These two are central to the Naruto series, and even with the introduction of new, interesting characters, fans will always have a strong connection to Naruto and Sasuke. In particular, fans feel that Sasuke has faced some difficult circumstances in the Boruto storyline.

Currently, Sasuke Uchiha has been completely removed from the storyline because the writers want the newer characters to take center stage instead of the older ones. Sasuke Uchiha has been turned into a tree by the artist, Ikemoto, which is unfortunate, but also poses a threat to Konohagakure. Fortunately, Sasuke Uchiha now has a designated successor who has stepped up to take on the task of protecting the village from hidden dangers, and that person is none other than Boruto Uzumaki.

Sasuke Was The Protector From The Shadows

  • Sarada didn’t follow in Sasuke’s footsteps

When Boruto started, fans quickly noticed that Boruto Uzumaki differed greatly from Naruto. His talent resembled Sasuke Uchiha’s more, and he felt a stronger connection with Sasuke than with his own father. After meeting Sasuke Uchiha a few times, Boruto realized Sasuke was the person he wanted to emulate in life. By the end of the Boruto movie, he committed to becoming more like Sasuke Uchiha and pledged to support Sarada when she eventually becomes the Hokage.

I dream of being a ninja just like Uncle Sasuke. I promise to be there to defend you when you become the Hokage. – Boruto Uzumaki to Sarada Uchiha

Currently, in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Boruto Uzumaki has finally kept his promise. It’s clear that Boruto has reached his full potential and is now Konoha’s protector while Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha are away. Similar to his father, he’s a shinobi who has faced hardship, but he continues to defend the village from any danger, even if it costs him his life.

Sasuke Will Watch Over Him

Currently, the greatest danger to Konoha is the Shiju group. They are planning an attack on the village, and fans anticipate that Boruto Uzumaki will be the one to defend it. While he won’t gain any reward or recognition, he’ll still step up for his village when it’s in trouble, which demonstrates why he’s a worthy heir to Sasuke Uchiha. Fans are hoping to see Sasuke return later in the story so that these two can protect Konoha and their families together.

I’m so excited – Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 27 is officially coming out on October 19, 2025! The chapter will be released at 10 AM EST / 3 PM UTC. And the best part is, like always, we can all read it officially for free on both the Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump apps! Can’t wait!
