Boruto: Two Blue Vortex continues to deliver high-stakes drama, powerful awakenings, and deeper character development in Chapters 21 and 22. These chapters are a turning point in the story, especially for Sarada Uchiha, who finally unlocks her Mangekyō Sharingan. Meanwhile, Boruto steps further into the spotlight with sharp decision-making and combat maturity.
Whether you’re a long-time Naruto fan or fully invested in the next generation, this part of the series offers rich storytelling and hype-worthy moments.
Chapter 21 – Sarada Awakens the Mangekyō Sharingan
A Moment of Loss, A Burst of Power
Sarada’s emotional threshold is pushed to the limit after witnessing the death of Yodo, one of the new gen characters she was close to. This intense trauma triggers the awakening of her Mangekyō Sharingan—a long-awaited development fans have speculated about for years.
Her Mangekyō ability is called Oohirume, and it’s wild. It creates gravitational zones that behave almost like black holes—sucking in enemy attacks and canceling them out entirely. It’s both elegant and devastating in combat, matching Sarada’s tactical fighting style.
Sarada vs. Ryu – A Defining Duel
Sarada’s opponent, Ryu, is one of the Shinju—new tree-based beings that act as a fusion of ninja and nature. He’s not an easy opponent, but Sarada doesn’t hesitate. With her new power, she takes the fight to him and lands a crushing win, proving she’s no longer just a support character—she’s a front-line fighter, ready for the big leagues.
Boruto Enters the Scene – A Dangerous Enemy Approaches
While Sarada is busy saving the squad, Boruto arrives to save Konohamaru, who’s under attack by Matsuri, another Shinju. Boruto handles Matsuri quickly, showing just how much he’s grown since the time skip. But the victory doesn’t go unnoticed—Jura, a more powerful Shinju, shows up and instantly recognizes Boruto’s Otsutsuki presence. That moment sets the tone: the real threats are only just beginning.
Chapter 22 – Strategic Brilliance and a Cold Lesson
Boruto vs. Ao – A Battle of Wits and Resolve
Chapter 22 shifts the focus to Boruto’s ongoing fight with Ao, a veteran turned cyborg ninja. Even with heavy injuries, Ao uses everything in his arsenal—drones, tech-enhanced limbs, and brutal tactics. He manages to knock out Konohamaru, raising the stakes fast.
But Boruto, staying calm under pressure, crafts a clever plan. He uses a Shadow Clone to outwit Ao, and in the final moments, he destroys Ao’s robotic limbs and defeats him using a clean, precise Rasengan.
Mercy Over Murder – Boruto’s Ninja Way
In true Boruto fashion, he chooses not to kill Ao—even when he easily could have. This sparks an emotional response from Ao, who warns Boruto that being merciful in battle could come back to haunt him. It’s a chilling moment, and it adds emotional weight to the fight, reminding us that Boruto’s journey is just as much about identity and ideals as it is about strength.
Konohamaru’s Respect
After the dust settles, Konohamaru regains consciousness and gives props to Boruto for his growth. It’s a simple but satisfying moment, especially for fans who’ve watched Boruto mature from a headstrong kid to a serious shinobi.

Chapters 21 and 22 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex are some of the most important yet. Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan reveal is a major payoff, and Boruto’s leadership and fighting instincts are reaching elite levels. The Shinju are shaping up to be more than just monsters—they’re deeply tied to the Otsutsuki mystery, and Jura’s interest in Boruto is a clear warning.
