Boruto: Two Blue Vortexes is finally starting its new arc, and it’s very exciting, given that the story will take place outside of Konoha and the Land of Fire for the first time in a long time. Additionally, a new group of characters will take a leading role in this quest, and the arc will do justice to an underrated character who has been ignored for far too long.
The official website of naruto and Boruto releases a preview a week before the publication of the last chapter and the preview of chapter 16 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortexes it’s a good one. It shows Araya and Yodo standing on top of a rock, welcoming Konohamaru to the Land of Wind and thanking you for your cooperation. Konohamaru then says that they should begin the mission. The series is wasting no time in its next arc and, even better, the setting won’t be in Konoha.
Konohamaru is finally getting the screen time he deserves
The future Hokage will be highlighted in this arc
A major criticism of Boruto Part 1 was the underused secondary characters, particularly Team 7. The lack of importance of Sarada and Mitsuki, especially as they were part of the main cast, was highly controversial. However, the fact that Konohamaru was ignored hurt even more, given how much he was loved in naruto and his lofty goals of being a Hokage one day. In the first arc of Boruto: Two Blue Vortexeshis role grew significantly, not only debuting an impressive new version of the Rasengan, but also taking a leading role in Boruto’s interrogation alongside Konoha’s highest authorities.
However, Konohamaru leading the mission to save Kazekage Gaara is very impressive and shows how the creators are willing to redeem him and make him finally live up to his potential. Additionally, Araya and Yodo’s participation in this quest is also great for world-building, as it finally shows that there are characters outside of Konoha who are affected by the actions of the God Trees and Jura. This also leads to greater tensions and risks, as the series shows the perspective of people around the world, which makes the situation even darker.
The revelation of the other members of the mission will be exciting
Although Konohamaru is very capable, it is very unlikely that he was sent alone on this mission. As is standard in most S-rank missions, the group leader usually has two or three other members with him, as was the case in the search for Hidan and Kakuzu. Mitsuki is a very real possibility seeing as how he gained Shikamaru’s trust when he freed Boruto from his handcuffs. He’s also very powerful and intelligent, so he would be a huge asset. The other members, however, can be anyone, and the next chapter #16 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortexesreleased on November 20th, it will likely reveal who will join Konohamaru on this mission.
