Naruto: Masashi Kishimoto Officially Confirms Sasuke’s Next Power

by

This article contains spoilers from the Boruto series.

In the vibrant world of Naruto, it’s clear that Sasuke Uchiha stands out as one of the most powerful ninjas. This reputation carries over into the Boruto series, where he is known for his immense strength. Equipped with the potent Rinnegan and Mangekyo Sharingan, Sasuke Uchiha poses a significant threat to many, even challenging some of the deadliest Otsutsuki characters. However, in the Boruto series, Sasuke has faced his fair share of hardships.

This significant change occurred due to the loss of his Rinnegan in Boruto, following an attack by Momoshiki Otsutsuki, who had taken control of Boruto Uzumaki’s very own eye that belonged to Sasuke. Despite this loss, many fans believe Sasuke is currently less powerful than before; however, this won’t persist as author Kishimoto has already hinted at a major power-up for Sasuke in the near future. At present, Sasuke appears trapped, but it’s expected he will soon acquire the Thorn Soul Bulb, potentially granting him a Ten Tails level power.

Sasuke Will Need The Thorn Soul Bulb Soon

  • The Thorn Soul Bulb is the essence of the Ten Tails
  • It could power up Sasuke even more

In the world of Naruto, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki continue to hold significant importance, even in the spin-off series Boruto. Regardless of who takes center stage, these two characters remain deeply cherished by fans. Consequently, it is understood that their relevance should be maintained and their esteemed legacy preserved.

As an avid fan, I must say that Two Blue Vortex has been correcting the past’s oversights thus far, offering a glimmer of hope for Naruto and Sasuke to regain their might. Remarkably, Sasuke demonstrated his resilience in Two Blue Vortex by battling Code without limiters, holding his own, and even losing an eye. Such a feat is indeed noteworthy. Yet, it seems the creators have grander plans for Sasuke’s growth, as evidenced by the introduction of the Thorn Soul Bulb – a potential source of even greater power.

For those familiar with the story, the Thorn Soul Bulb plays a crucial role in potentially saving Sasuke Uchiha. Similar to Moegi’s situation, the Thorn Soul Bulb needs to be absorbed by a tree for the individual to be rescued. What many fans might not understand is that this bulb encapsulates the very essence of the Shinju, an offshoot of the Ten Tails. This implies it carries the genetic material of the Ten Tails. Even Moegi experienced a power boost upon receiving it. When Sasuke obtains Hidari’s Thorn Soul Bulb, he will likely inherit Ten Tails powers, enhancing his strength even further.

Sasuke Uchiha Will Be Stronger With His Next Power

Sasuke Could Regain The Rinnegan

The Thorn Soul Bulb might have a significant impact on Sasuke Uchiha if it grants him the Rinnegan once more, as all Shinju are known to possess this powerful eye. Since Sasuke already bears an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, if he absorbs the spirit of the Ten-Tails, his remaining eye could activate a Rinnegan, making him an incredibly potent ninja once again.

Currently, Sasuke Uchiha lies asleep, and it’s likely we won’t witness his release for a while. However, over the next ten or so chapters, readers might indeed watch Hidari get vanquished. This eventuality would mean Sasuke Uchiha re-enters the main narrative, stronger than ever before. Fans can hardly wait to witness this exciting development.

The next episode of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is scheduled to air on September 20, 2025. It will be available at 10 AM Eastern Standard Time or 3 PM Coordinated Universal Time. As usual, fans can access the chapter for free on Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
