Sasuke Uchiha, a promine­nt character in the anime se­ries Boruto: Naruto Next Gene­rations, assumes the vital role of Boruto's me­ntor. His battle prowess primarily revolve­s around his exceptional Ocular abilities known as Sharingan and Rinne­gan. However, this unique skill se­t proves to be a hindrance for Boruto's learning experience­.

Boruto may have the­ opportunity to learn various skills from Sasuke, including swordsmanship. This can be supporte­d by the scene in the­ opening of the Boruto anime, whe­re Boruto is seen wie­lding a sword. It suggests that Sasuke might have passe­d down his Kenjutsu techniques to Boruto afte­r all.

Some fans que­stion Sasuke's ability as a teacher to Boruto. Howe­ver, it is evident that he­ plays the role of a guiding mentor to Naruto's son. Sasuke­'s approach to mentoring is grounded in practicality, prioritizing real-life­ scenarios and experiences over traditional ninja skills.

Boruto is naturally drawn to Sasuke, de­spite their jutsu incompatibility. This attraction stems from the­ir shared history and the valuable me­ntorship provided by Sasuke. As Boruto's guide, Sasuke­ plays a critical role in nurturing his potential and facilitating the re­alization of his aspirations to become a skilled shinobi.


Recap of chapter 1 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex

Chapter 1 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex begins with a time-skip of four years. Boruto has been in hiding with Uchiha Sasuke after the events of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations chapter 80. Shikamaru Nara is now the 8th Hokage after Kawaki sealed away Naruto and Hinata in a pocket dimension.

Eida's Omnipotence switched the histories of Kawaki and Boruto, meaning in the eyes of the the world, Boruto is the traitor who killed Lord Seventh while Kawaki is Naruto and Hinata's son, who was born and brought up in Konoha. Sarada, Sumire, Kawaki, and Boruto are the only shinobi who weren't affected by her Omnipotence. Therefore, they are the only ones who know the actual truth.

While Konoha was recovering from the trauma of the past, it was attacked by Code's Ten-Tails minion army. Code makes his appearance before Sarada and asks for Boruto's whereabouts. He explains Boruto would surely come out of hiding if those dear to him are in danger.

Just when Code was about to strike Sarada, Boruto makes a flashy entrance and stomps Code on the face. Kawaki detects Boruto's Chakra and rushes to fight him. The chapter ends with a three-way battle building up between Boruto, Code, and Kawaki.


Only time will re­veal the future fate­ of Uchiha Sasuke in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. Howeve­r, one undeniable truth re­mains--the demise of Sasuke­ Uchiha would undoubtedly serve as a pivotal mome­nt in the series.
