Shikamaru devises a daring plan: infiltrate his soldiers into Sunagakure and eliminate Ryū and Matsuri to recover the Thorn Soul Bulbs, artifacts essential for freeing Gaara, Shinki, and Moegi. However, these descendants of the Ōtsutsuki are ruthless and shrewd, making any mistake a lethal risk.
Yodo's fatal mistake

While Konohamaru manipulates Matsuri, exploiting her feelings, Sarada and Mitsuki deal with Ryū in a more psychological way. They feign a common interest: capturing Boruto. Naive and questioning his own identity, Ryū ends up revealing his Thorn Soul Bulb in a moment of vulnerability. However, Yodo rushes in, trying to steal it. To his surprise, the object immediately dissipates—a trap created with Iron Sand, a powerful ability inherited from the Gaara and Shinki clans. Quickly, Ryū takes control of the situation, using his sand to immobilize the Leaf ninjas, revealing his true nature: a born predator, cunning and cruel.
Ryū reveals his true power

Ryū is no ordinary opponent. He has already demonstrated his strength by subduing Code and manipulating his claw marks, disabling his teleportation. Now, he displays an incredible sensory ability, connecting with the desert around him, detecting not only the physical presence of enemies but also their emotional states. This explains how he anticipated Yodo's mistake, solidifying his position as one of the most dangerous threats ever seen.
The twist: a blade against Ryū

When all seemed lost, Araya intervenes with his Magnetic Sand Sealing Blade, breaking Ryū's control over the immobilized ninjas. The villain is taken aback, realizing his advantage has been neutralized. The chapter ends in a thrilling way, leaving fans eager to discover the origin of this blade and how it might affect the course of the battle.
Is there redemption for Ryū?

Despite his brutality, Ryū can still be influenced by Talk no Jutsu, the famous redemption technique from the Naruto universe. As happened with Nagato and Obito, perhaps Boruto and his team can free him from Jura's influence, paving the way for him to discover his true identity. However, trusting such a powerful and unpredictable being could generate internal conflicts within the Leaf Village, making his integration a complex challenge.
