Boruto: Two Blue Vortexes It moves at breakneck speed, with new battles unfolding with each chapter. Fans have been absolutely loving the battles the author has portrayed over the past two years, and the latest issue focusing on Shinju and Boruto Uzumaki is currently incredibly exciting.

Boruto: Why Naruto Uzumaki is stronger than ever after returning with two blue vortices

Naruto Uzumaki returns stronger than ever in Boruto. Fans are looking forward to his return to Stroy.

Boruto Uzumaki has eliminated several of his clones, with more clones expected to be added in the future. Interestingly, boruto Recent chapters have been under fire from fans, and rightly so. Any series, Power scaling is a very important thing that writers should pay special attention to when it comes to boys.. In the case of Boruto, this concept has been completely broken, and this has become especially evident in the latest chapters. Some of the weakest characters somehow defeated some of the strongest characters..

  • Shinju is the strongest fighter in the Boruto series.

  • Otsutsuki continues to be a major threat.

The Boruto series has done an incredibly good job of introducing a ton of giant monsters into its story. When the series began, Momoshiki Otsutsuki and his family were introduced to fans. Later, the Inners of Kara were introduced into the story, and each of them posed a serious threat not only to Boruto Uzumaki, but to the ninja world in general. As time went by, more monsters appeared in the story and have continued to grow stronger ever since.

The greatest threat currently facing the ninja world comes in the form of Shinju, a monster born from the Ten Tails with the power of the Code. The divine liquor is known to be incredibly powerful. When they first appeared in the story, fans definitely recognized that their abilities were on a completely different level compared to the majority of the characters. At that time, even Code, whose abilities were completely unleashed after meeting Amado, struggled in the battle with Shinju. At this point, Sasuke Uchiha and Boruto Uzumaki, who later trained with Kōji Kashin, also struggled to deal with the Shinju.

The story has made it very clear at this point that Shinju is on a whole other level compared to most of the threats we've seen in the Boruto series. This is why their threat is considered so great. All Shinju are officially stated to be stronger than the average Otsutsuki, and this is what makes them truly special. However, it appears that this special element has now been removed in the next chapter of the Boruto manga. For some reason, Shinju is fighting against regular ninjas who can never reach that level of power. Currently, Boruto's power scaling makes absolutely no sense.

  • Boruto completely broke power scaling.

When the ordeal with Shinju began, Fans were quite confused as to how an ordinary shinobi could rival the power of a Shinju.. At the time, fans didn't pay much attention. However, as time went on, it became increasingly clear that the authors either didn't care about proper power scaling or were very bad at it. For example, when the arc occurred in the Sand Village, Boruto Uzumaki and his teammates initially fought against the Shinju. This was a clear statement by the author that Shinju was on a whole different level, and this was necessary at the time since the author had previously stated that he was an Otsutsuki level threat.

All right. You have no hope for the future. You just want to kill me and disappear from this world as quickly as possible. Otherwise, you have no chance of freedom. These divine beings are a threat to us all. Will you help me or not? — Boruto Uzumaki to Momoshiki Otsutsuki, Boruto: TBV Episode 29

Naruto_ Kishimoto has already prepared for the next fight between Naruto and Sasuke, and it will be the biggest fight ever (1)(1)

Naruto and Sasuke are currently sealed. But in the end, they end up having the biggest battle in Boruto.

But when I looked at it later, I found it a bit strange. Araya, Yodo, and others gained power equivalent to that of Shinju.. Fans thought this was a coincidence, but later it was even revealed that Konohamaru almost killed one of the Shinju.Fans know that Konohamaru isn't as strong as a regular Kage, but he somehow manages to take down someone on Otsutsuki's level.

In subsequent issues, Ikemoto did even crazier things. When Mamushi attacked Konoha, it became clear that he would cause all sorts of problems for the village's Shinobi, and this was mainly due to his incredible ninjutsu. Mamushi has a special ability to split herself into multiple clones.. But his clones aren't just shadow clones. With shadow clones, the chakra is split evenly and so is the intensity. This is one of the biggest disadvantages of using clone-type technology. However, this does not apply to Mamushi.

Mamushi's ability is to increase your numbers as much as you want. He loses no strength or chakra when he does this. However, there is a downside. The more he divides himself, the more his intelligence deteriorates. — Kashin Koji

This is because when Mamushi creates a clone of himself, his power is not split at all and his chakra is not stored up. The only thing that falls short is his intelligence, as is repeatedly made clear in the story. This means that when Mamushi cloned himself over 50 times, his power did not drop a single bit, and all 50 clones were equal to the Otsutsuki level of power he was introduced to.

  • Chocho is a very weak genin

  • Her powers make no sense.

Now, in the most recent chapter of Boruto, fans have seen the following minor characters: Chocho somehow manages to take down these Otsutsuki level clones in combat with a simple extended jutsu.That doesn't make any sense. Chocho shouldn't be strong enough to take down an Otsutsuki level threat. Of course, it goes without saying that the Mamushi clone's intelligence has dropped dramatically, but that doesn't mean he should be away from one of the Expansion Jutsu that the character in Naruto Part 1 can perform.

Otsutsuki should be much more durable than that, and should have enough strength to kill a person even if his intelligence is extremely low. This makes absolutely no sense and ruins Boruto's power scaling forever..

Boruto needs better direction in writing

Boruto's power scaling made little sense at first, but it makes even more sense in the latest manga chapters. Fans have speculated: Boruto Uzumaki, Sarada Uchiha and many other new generation characters have already surpassed Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke.However, looking at the current situation where even Chocho takes down an Otsutsuki level enemy, it is clear that Naruto will easily take down these characters like Sasuke.

This gives fans new hope that these characters will be incredibly powerful when they return. But at the same time, this also means that the series' power expansion is unrecoverable at this point, and there's nothing fans can do about it.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is a sequel to the original Boruto series written by Mikio Ikemoto and directed by Masashi Kishimoto. The series follows the journey of Boruto Uzumaki, three years after the events of Almighty in the story. Boruto must now deal with his older brother Kawaki and try to save the world from the dangers it faces. Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 30 is scheduled for an official release on January 20, 2026.
