The thrilling saga of “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex” continues to captivate audiences as it delves deeper into the Land of Wind, promising even more unexpected turns in its narrative. At present, the tale centers around three key aspects. Firstly, the struggle against the menacing Shinju, a threat that looms over the world. Secondly, the mission to undo the consequences of Omnipotence. Lastly, the quest to bring back Naruto and Sasuke, two characters who have left their indelible mark on the storyline.

It’s clear that all these objectives will be achieved in due time, but it’s no secret that fans are eagerly anticipating the reappearance of Naruto and Sasuke above anything else. Although Naruto’s return might require a bit more patience, Sasuke’s comeback isn’t too distant, as Kishimoto himself has hinted at his return date.

How Sasuke Was Cut Out From The Story In Boruto

  • Sasuke Left Konoha To Train Boruto
  • Sasuke Was Turned Into A Tree

Readers understand that Sasuke suffered a severe destiny twist in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. Despite losing an eye early on, fans anticipated Sasuke would work even harder and become the village guardian while Naruto was away. Regrettably, things played out differently due to Omnipotence’s influence. Instead of staying in the village, Sasuke departed alongside Boruto Uzumaki for over a year to teach him ninja skills. In the end, Sasuke encountered a Code and his Claw Grimes, marking significant events in his journey.

Claw Grimemenaces continuously caused problems for Sasuke, despite him defeating Code and stealing his eye. However, the sheer number of them was overwhelming, making it impossible for Sasuke to emerge victorious. Ultimately, he chose to give up his life to shield Boruto Uzumaki from harm. Later, bitten by Claw Grimemenaces, Sasuke transformed into a tree. Utilizing Sasuke’s chakra, a new entity called Hidari emerged, boasting powers akin to Sasuke and the abilities of the Ten Tails. This powerful being holds the secret to Sasuke’s potential resurrection.

Kishimoto Has Already Set Up Sasuke’s Return in Boruto

Hidari Needs To Be Beaten To Free Sasuke

In the anime Boruto, it’s widely expected that Sasuke will come back before Naruto does, which is a given fact. Compared to the current Hokage role, rescuing Sasuke seems more achievable because liberating Naruto involves defeating Kawaki, an obstacle not likely to be overcome in the storyline any time soon. Fans are also optimistic about bringing back Sasuke as they believe overpowering Hidari is a simpler task, since Hidari has been defeated before and can be subdued again.

In the latest Boruto storyline, two of the Otsutsuki clan members – Matsuri and Ryu – met their demise. Now, only three are left standing, and fans anticipate that the remaining ones, particularly Hidari and Mamushi, will be in trouble soon. However, since Jura is the most powerful, it’s unlikely he’ll face consequences any time soon.

Sarada Will Likely Beat Hidari

Curious fans may be pondering who will emerge victorious against Hidari in the anime “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex”. It seems plausible that Sarada will be the one to defeat him. Fans are aware that Boruto Uzumaki is set to battle Jura, the strongest Shinju, and Kawaki is likely to engage either Jura or Mamushi in combat. Since Hidari’s target appears to be Sarada Uchiha, it stands to reason that she will be the one to best him. They have previously clashed in battle, and with Sarada now harnessing immense powers, it seems like her time to defeat him and rescue her beloved father, Sasuke, who is a fan favorite in Boruto. Once Sarada defeats Hidari, expectedly in the next story arc, we can anticipate Sasuke’s return.

On May 20, 2025, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 22 will be available for viewing! The chapter goes live at 10 AM Eastern Standard Time (or 3 PM Universal Coordinated Time). As usual, fans can enjoy the chapter for free on apps like Manga Plus and Shonen Jump.
