The latest chapter of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has unveiled dramatic developments that have left fans both intrigued and concerned. Notably, the long-awaited confrontation between Konohamaru and Matsuri is now underway, adding emotional depth to the battle. Meanwhile, the alliance of Leaf and Sand shinobi is grappling with a formidable opponent: Ryu and his deadly Iron Sand techniques.
This precarious situation compelled Sarada Uchiha to demonstrate her hidden power—her new Mangekyo Sharingan. This advanced ocular ability appears to have a capability reminiscent of Kamui, allowing her to concentrate objects at a specific point. However, the context of this revelation stems from Yodo suffering severe injuries, raising the stakes for her survival.
Another character, Inojin, endured a similar fate in past encounters but may have been more fortunate than Yodo is likely to be.
Yodo’s Critical Condition: A Grim Outlook
Chapter 20 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex continued exploring the intense battle between the Leaf-Sand team and Ryu. Fans familiar with Naruto lore will understand the potency of an Iron Sand user, especially when combined with Ryu’s status as a Shinju—his full capabilities remain shrouded in mystery.
Despite the new generation deploying various tactics, including Araya utilizing Shinki’s chakra, these efforts fell short against Ryu’s overwhelming strength. In an attempt to locate Boruto, Yodo offered her sensory abilities to Ryu, an act that tragically backfired, leading to her being severely injured.
A similar scenario unfolded when Jura and Hidari invaded the Hidden Leaf Village. Team 10, including the Ino-Shika-Cho trio and Himawari Uzumaki, faced overwhelming odds. Inojin’s valiant efforts to intervene resulted in serious injuries due to Jura’s Wood Release. Luckily, Himawari, as the new Jinchuriki of the Nine Tails, was able to utilize her dormant healing abilities to save him. However, such a rescue may not be possible for Yodo.
The current predicament is exacerbated by the fact that the Leaf-Sand alliance lacks any medical-nin who can provide immediate assistance. With Konohamaru occupied in his duel with Matsuri, the team is left without healing support. Without a miracle, Yodo’s critical injuries and the circumstances surrounding them point to a bleak fate for her character.
Concluding Thoughts
As it stands, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex offers a harrowing look at Yodo’s fate in chapter 20. The alliance of Leaf and Sand has managed to engage Ryu with impressive tactics, but their failure to secure victory highlights the dire stakes. Unlike Inojin, whose life was saved by Himawari’s unexpected abilities, Yodo finds herself without an apparent route to recovery.
The absence of medical ninjas only heightens the tension surrounding her character. Sarada’s newly acquired Mangekyo Sharingan lacks any apparent healing capabilities, signifying that Yodo’s chances of survival are slim. The option of using forbidden jutsu like Granny Chiyo’s is fraught with complications, leaving fans wondering if intervention can turn the tide.
The potential loss of Yodo would be a significant blow to the narrative, curtailing her role as one-half of the Sand Twins. Her demise would not only serve as a potent reminder of the harsh realities within the series but would also impact the overall story going forward.
