The manga's previous chapter saw Jura arrive at the Land of the Wind. However, instead of focusing on retrieving Ryu and Matsuri's Thorn Soul Bulbs, Jura went after Boruto.

On Tuesday, June 17, 2025, the official website for the Naruto franchise unveiled the second preview of the upcoming Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 23. The chapter is set to be released on Friday, June 20, 2025, in Shueisha's V Jump August special issue.

The manga's previous chapter mainly focused on Boruto's fight with Jura. After the Human God Tree arrived at the Land of the Wind, he went after Boruto. While he had to retrieve the Thorn Soul Bulbs of Ryu and Matsuri, Jura believed Boruto to be too dangerous and prioritized killing him.

Hence, the manga chapter saw the Human God Tree targeting Boruto. While the Otsutsuki managed to evade all of Jura's attacks using his Flying Raijin Jutsu, he was finally trapped by Jura's Wood Jutsu.

Amidst this, Jura caught hold of Boruto's katana, a prized possession he inherited from his Master, Sasuke Uchiha. Boruto was terrified of having his katana destroyed, so he escaped using his Rasengan Uzuhiko and attacked the Divine God Tree.

While Boruto was able to retrieve his master's katana, it was only then that he realized that his Rasengan Uzuhiko was ineffective on Jura, as he could nullify it.

Following that, as per the second sneak peek preview of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 23, the manga will see Boruto and Jura resume their battle. During this battle, Jura is going to pounce on Boruto, clashing his claw against Boruto's katana. This move will chip away at the weapon.

As fans must know, Boruto held a lot of emotional value to the katana he inherited from his master. Therefore, seeing the katana get chipped is going to distract him. While Boruto is distracted by this development, Jura is going to use the opportunity to land a kick on his enemy.
