The Rise of Jura: A New Threat to Naruto Uzumaki

Jura, the leader of the Grimes faction, targets Naruto Uzumaki to drain his chakra and take his powers. This development brings Naruto back into the spotlight of the ongoing storyline.

Background on Naruto’s Recent Struggles

Previously, Naruto faced a significant setback in Chapter 77 of the manga “Boruto: Naruto Next Generations,” where he was sealed away by Kawaki into an alternate dimension alongside Hinata. In this dire situation, he will have to confront a new and formidable threat.

The leader of the Grimes faction, Jura, seems intent on harming Naruto to absorb his chakra. This twist highlights that even though Naruto may be out of action, he still holds an essential role in the future events of the series.

Who is Jura?

Jura is a newly introduced antagonist whose connections to Naruto are shrouded in mystery. His relationship with Naruto is primarily influenced by the strategies of Grimes. The Grimes faction is focused on various targets, including Sasuke’s Grime aimed at Sarada, Bug’s Grime targeting Eida, and Moegi’s Grime going after Konohamaru. Jura embodies the darker aspects of the narrative, especially in relation to Kawaki and Jigen, two characters with significant stakes in Naruto’s life.

Jura’s Origins and Future Conflicts

The origins of Jura remain uncertain, potentially linking him to Kawaki or Jigen. As the impending battle looms, Boruto and Kawaki must navigate through unique challenges to protect Naruto. This chapter sets the stage for an unexpected alliance among the various factions, paving the way for a newly empowered antagonist in “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex.”
