- Boruto Two Blue Vortex 21: Sarada awakens the Mangekyou Sharingan against Ryu
- One Piece 1146: Full Spoilers Revealed
Amidst intense battles and thrilling revelations, Sarada Uchiha reaches a new level of power with her Mangekyou Sharingan—thanks to Yodo's final courage. Below, we explore all the events and their impact on the plot.
Yodo dies after inspiring Sarada to awaken her Mangekyou Sharingan.
During the events of the previous chapter, Yodo suffered a brutal blow from Ryu while trying to intervene in the confrontation. Even seriously injured, she chose not to ask for help. Instead, she focused on stimulating Sarada to access a dormant inner strength. With words that touched the young Uchiha's heart, Yodo managed to provoke a crucial reaction: the awakening of the Mangekyou Sharingan.
This action revealed not only the depth of Yodo's character but also her strategic importance in a battle where everyone seemed on the verge of collapse. After being struck, she was treated by Mitsuki, who had just freed herself from Ryu's manipulation. However, the treatment was too late. Yodo succumbed to her injuries and died, becoming a silent symbol of the war unfolding between the shinobi and the Shinju entities.
Sarada dominates the battlefield with new eye power
After reliving important memories and confronting her own emotions, Sarada overcame the emotional attachments that had been limiting her. This emotional growth allowed her to awaken her Mangekyou Sharingan, which, spoilers reveal, has the ability to control gravity.
With this new technique, Sarada managed to subdue Ryu even as the enemy attempted to escape. The fight took an unexpected turn, with the advantage shifting to the Leaf and Sand allies. The Shinju was completely disintegrated, symbolizing the end of one of the most tense story arcs since the beginning of Two Blue Vortex.
The surviving ninjas celebrated their victory, while the emotional impact of Yodo's death spread among those who held her most dear.
Impact of Yodo's death on the core of the Sand Village
Although Yodo wasn't a central character from the beginning of the series, her brief appearance won over some of the fandom. She stood out for her striking appearance and creative fighting style, which quickly connected with the audience. Her unexpected death may have been brief in terms of exposition, but profound in symbolism.
One of the expected focuses of the upcoming chapters is the reaction of Araya, Yodo's teammate and close friend, who harbored romantic feelings for her. Furthermore, it is speculated that Shinki, one of the Sand Village's most powerful shinobi, will soon return to deal with the tragic news of his friend's death. These developments promise to deepen the emotional drama in the series and expand the development of supporting characters.
Revealing dialogues and legacy building
In another section of the chapter, we see Kashin Koji and Eida reflecting on the impact of Sarada's new power and the significance of Yodo's sacrifice. Their dialogue serves as a kind of tribute to the Sand Girl, acknowledging that, without her intervention, the story could have had a much darker ending.
This sequence reinforces how even characters with limited screen time can play decisive roles in important narrative arcs. Masashi Kishimoto's work has stood out precisely for giving emotional relevance to specific moments, and Yodo joins other names who, even in their farewell, marked the plot with symbolic power.
