After one year of serialization for the long-awaited sequel,Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, the series has seemingly concluded its first arc, and the upcoming arc will begin with the upcoming chapter #14. The action-packed beginning to the story has been met with praise from fans and sets up future conflicts and plot lines very well.

The series' first arc dived straight into action, with Code attacking Konoha with mindless Shinjus to lure Boruto out. However, Boruto was too strong for him and he retreated. In a turn of events, the Shinjus fully awaken, possessing will, intellect, and supreme power they hadn’t displayed before. After Boruto retreats, Jura and Hidari attack Konoha to look for Naruto, and they findHimawari, who has Kurama’s chakrainside her. After a long-winded battle on many fronts, Boruto and other ninjas manage to repel the two long enough until Jura decides to leave to attend to more important matters.

What Happened In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter #13?

One Of The Best Chapters In The Series Yet

Boruto: Two Blue Vortexchapter #13 was one of the most eventful ones in the series so far, featuring bombshell after bombshell. The chapter featured Boruto and Kashin Koji’s first meeting, where Kashin Koji convinces Boruto that he knows the truth about Omnipotence using his awakened Shinjutsu,Prescience, which allows him to see multipleBorutotimelines. Using this power,Kashin teaches Boruto all the abilities he would learn in the future, which explains his dramatic increase in power at the beginning of the series.

“That’s My Taste”: Boruto’s Artist Explains a Hugely Controversial Character Design Choice

The manga artist Mikio Ikemoto, in a recent interview, addressed his reasoning behind his questionable clothing choice for Boruto’s female characters.

Kashin Koji explains the worst possible future, where Jura and the Shinjus awaken, Boruto is killed, and the world is destroyed. In the face of such news, Boruto asserts his conviction of saving not only the world but also his brother, Kawaki. Back in the present, Boruto is handcuffed by Konohamaru and Kawaki using special cuffs made by Amado that prevent the use of Ninjutsu. Himawari, after waking up, heals Sarada’s injury.

The chapter ends on a massive cliffhanger, with Jura, Hidari, Mamushi, and Matsuri managing to revive Hidari after being blasted byBoruto’s ridiculously powerful Rasengan Uzuhiko. Afterward, Jura permitted Matsuri to harvest a Thorn Soul Bulb, the core of the Shinjus, and thus, started a ritual to awaken a new Shinju who would join their ranks.

What Will Happen In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter #14?

The Reaction To Boruto’s Arrest Will Be Interesting

With the village now safe, the chapter will probably focus on the aftermath of the incident, and the sneak peek showing thereturn of an OGNarutocharacter proves that. With the rogue ninja the world has been hunting for 3 years now captive, Konoha will focus on Boruto and put him in jail. The situation is more complicated though, as not only are Sarada and Sumire on their side, but also Shikamaru and Ino who’ve ascertained his innocence. There is also Amado, who knows the truth about Boruto, and he has been a wildcard since he was introduced, so what he does will be interesting.

Kashin Koji will most likely be making his move now given the severity of the situation, and with Boruto being the only hope for the world, fans can expect him to jump into action. Also, since chapter #13 ended on a cliffhanger of the new Shinju, the new character will be revealed, and possibly who was consumed to birth this new creature. Overall, there is so much that could happen in this chapter, and it is impossible not to be excited about it.
