Apparently, this is the first blow that manages to break through Jura's supernatural resistance, raising questions about the true limits of his body and Boruto's real chances of defeating him.
Boruto surprises Jura by using a rare technique in the middle of combat
During the direct confrontation, Jura manages to block Boruto's movements by grabbing the arm where the young man wields his katana. It is at this moment that Boruto activates Shiden (Purple Lightning), unleashing a devastating electrical discharge, and for the first time, Jura shows signs of feeling the effects of the attack.
The villain's reaction suggests that Shiden may be one of the few techniques capable of harming him. Until now, direct attacks like the Uzuhiko Rasengan and wind manipulation had had no lasting effect. Furthermore, the fact that Jura is now affected opens up a new perspective on the outcome of the fight.
Beware of Purple Lightning: A Key to the Future of Fighting?
The Purple Lightning, previously used by Kakashi Hatake and inherited by Boruto, is no ordinary technique. Besides requiring absolute control of lightning chakra, its effective use in the field indicates a new stage in the protagonist's development.
If Shiden is indeed one of the few techniques that can reach Jura, from chapter 23 onwards the focus of the narrative could shift to the search for improvement of this technique, or the creation of new ways to apply it in combination with the Rasengan or elemental jutsus.
Recap: What happened in the previous chapter
In Chapter 22 of Boruto Two Blue Vortex, Boruto faced Jura alone, trying to prevent the villain from reaching allies like Konohamaru and Sarada. During the fight, he employed strategies such as preparing the field with shurikens and teleportation traps. Jura, in turn, demonstrated absolute control of the terrain, using wood techniques and even launching a Tailed Beast Ball, forcing Boruto to protect the others at the expense of his own advantage.
Even after using the powerful Rasengan Uzuhiko, Boruto saw Jura get up unharmed, which generated a feeling of despair, now confronted by the unexpected effectiveness of the Purple Lightning.
