Chapter 21 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex , scheduled for release on April 18, is expected to reveal one of the most anticipated moments for fans: Sarada Uchiha's true power. Since awakening her Mangekyō Sharingan, the Konoha ninja had kept her abilities hidden. Now, in the midst of the confrontation in the Land of Wind, she seems ready to reveal the full potential of her lineage.

The anticipation revolves around a visual technique capable of creating black holes—space-time holes—that absorb everything around them. This jutsu, although previously hinted at, has never been explored in depth.
Furthermore, there is strong speculation that Sarada possesses a second ocular ability, as is common among Mangekyō Sharingan users. If this is confirmed, the next chapter could mark the beginning of a new phase for the character, solidifying her central role in the current plot.
Injured Konohamaru may resort to Sage Mode in decisive duel against Matsuri
Another highlight of the next chapter will be the outcome of the fight between Konohamaru Sarutobi and Matsuri. After an emotionally restrained attack, the Konoha jonin hesitated upon seeing his opponent's pain, allowing him to survive and deliver a fatal counterattack. Now gravely injured, Konohamaru must find new motivation to continue the battle.
Everything indicates that this boost will come with the awakening of Sage Mode, a legendary technique that drastically increases the user's physical and sensory capabilities. Although there are indications that he has mastered this form, Konohamaru has not yet used it in the Two Blue Vortex saga.
The current situation, however, offers the necessary motivation and risk for this power to finally be revealed. Activating Sage Mode could be the decisive factor in defeating Matsuri and the ninja alliance's advance against their common enemy.
Shinju weaken in the face of the advance of Konoha and Sand forces
The Shinju, the central antagonists of the current season of the series, have been facing increasingly solid resistance from their allied ninjas. With Sarada and Konohamaru assuming strategic positions in the battles, the members of this ancient threat begin to yield. The collective strength of Konoha and the Sand Village, combined with the protagonists' new techniques, imposes a new rhythm on the conflict.
Chapter 21 promises to intensify this scenario, showing that, despite the threat posed by the Shinju, they are not invincible. Thus, the development of the main characters and the protective spirit that drives the young ninjas should determine the turning point in the conflict.
Sarada, in particular, emerges as a key player in unbalancing the forces, not only because of her Uchiha heritage, but also because of the maturity she has acquired in the three years that have passed since the previous events of the franchise.
Expectations grow for the April release of the Boruto manga
The Boruto: Two Blue Vortex series continues to be officially published by Viz Media's Shonen Jump platform and is also available for free reading on the Manga Plus app.
Chapter 21, scheduled for April 18, 2025, carries the weight of a foretold climax. The promised revelations involve both the protagonists' progression in power and possible shifts in the balance between the villages and the Shinju.
For audiences, the new chapter could represent one of the most impactful turning points since the arc's beginning. The presence of classic elements, such as the Mangekyō Sharingan and Sage Mode, reinforces the link between generations and attracts both longtime fans and newer readers. Therefore, expectations are high, and Boruto promises to continue to escalate in intensity in future releases.
