This article will contain major spoilers for Boruto: Two Blue vortex chapter 1 so if you haven’t read the chapter yet, you can do so by clicking here.
Shikamaru the 8th Hokage
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chap. 1 is titled “Boruto” and begins with a discussion between Sarada, Shikamaru and Konohamaru in the Hokage’s office. Shikamaru is the eight Hokage meanwhile Konohamaru is his advisor. There’s a lot critique by fans because of don’t see Shikamaru as fit to be Hokage even though he’s quite smart. Moving on to the chapter, Sarada is still trying to convince Shikamaru that Boruto is innocent but he won’t believe her. He’s upset with her and thinks she won’t go far in life when it comes to being a ninja (not achieving the Hokage rank referring to her as a Genin). This has caused some confusion in the fandom because Sarada is Chunin in the anime. So Sarada might be demoted or the anime when adapting this will change it to fit its continuity. After all, there are clear differences between Sarada in the anime and in the manga.
Naruto-Hinata Status
Naruto and Hinata are shown in Kawaki’s timeless dimension and they both haven’t aged one bit. From Kawaki can now move freely in this dimension and has control over it.
Sarada, Sumire - Eida interaction
The next interaction that took place was between Sarada and Sumire on their way to meet Eida. The emphasis here is about how Shikamaru and the others are just victims of omnipotence and shouldn’t be blamed. There’s a talk between both ladies and Eida along with her brother. Sarada is still trying to find out if there’s a way to fix everything that’s happened (Boruto). Eida revealed she has greater control of omnipotence but she’s surprised omnipotence didn’t work on both of them. Because of this, she got the idea Sarada and Sumire might be immune to her love ability. Sarada and Sumire had to lie because they don’t want Eida and especially Daemon to find out the truth. This is because they both will be seen as threats.
Kawaki new flight skill
Mitsuki was also introduced in this chapter and he’s determined to kill Boruto and protect Kawaki because Mitsuki sees Kawaki as his “Sun” due to the effects of omnipotence. Kawaki is also pissed because Mitsuki keeps on tailing him and he finds it extremely annoying. Kawaki leaves Mitsuki behind because he gets a distress call. Kawaki flew away meaning Kawaki has learned how to fly.
Himawari’s opinion on Boruto
The fandom is later introduced to Himawari, Shikadai, Inojin and Chocho. ChoCho is training Himawari which means there’s a huge possibility she’s Himawari’s sensei. After the training session, they have a talk and it’s confirmed Himawari believes Boruto is innocent. Himawari is still affected by Omnipotence but she said she’s witnessed Boruto (Kawaki) protecting Naruto with his own life so it’s impossible for him to kill her dad. She’s training so she can fight for Boruto. She thinks they just need to listen to Boruto’s side of the story and the others are shocked to hear that. Himawari also believes she has this gut feeling her dad is still alive.
Code attacks Konoha
The call for Kawaki was regarding Code’s claw marks in Konoha. Kawaki reveals they keep finding his claw marks but he hasn’t attacked. Kawaki discovers a claw mark on a Shinobi’s upper-back toward his neck. Fans, get a look at Kawaki’s dojutsu and his dojutsu is in its complete form (it has the complete set of triangles).Because this Shinobi didn’t even notice there was a claw mark on his back, he informs Shikamaru to gather all Shinobi responsible for the claw mark search and gather them in one location so he can check them and shrink any if necessary but it was too late as Konoha was under attack.
Code Claw Grimes teleported to Konoha and began attacking the people. The sensory division informs Shikamaru about what’s happening. The Konoha police force also tries to contain the situation but the attack is taking place all across Konoha. Kawaki and Sarada are the two seen fighting these things.
Boruto’s arrival
In Sarada’s case, Code teleports to Konoha via a claw Grime she encountered. Code introduces himself to Sarada and reveals he’s been after Boruto for almost two years. He attacked Konoha because he’s tired of chasing Boruto and knows Boruto will come if he hears the scream of his loved one’s. Code similar to Boruto has a scar on his eye but its unknown as of right now how he got that scar. Boruto shows up using Code’s face as a doormat. This chapter concluded with Boruto coming face-to-face with Kawaki, Code and Sarada.
Closure
This chapter just confirmed time skip Kawaki might be on par with Isshiki or Jigen at least seeing how strong he is. Boruto also able to instantly hit Code means Boruto is a beast because this Code doesn’t have limiters and he’s confirmed by Amado to be stronger than Jigen. Sasuke whereabouts are currently unknown considering he left alongside Boruto.
