Nearly two years after Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan awakened in Chapter 80 of Boruto: Naruto’s Next Generations, the final antagonist finally confronts Sasuke’s daughter, who wields the Mangekyō Sharingan. In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 20, the battle against the Ryū ninja intensifies, with the situation becoming more challenging after Yodo suffers severe injuries.
However, Yodo succeeded in pushing Sarada to unleash her powerful hidden strength. This marks the first time she has used her Mangekyō Sharingan, which could potentially be the strongest ability in the Boruto series to date.
After utilizing the Mangekyō Sharingan, Sarada’s technique is revealed to be similar to that of a black hole, capable of attracting the Ryū’s energy. This not only helps her escape from Mitsuki and Araya but also allows her to control her abilities better than what the antagonist might expect. This indicates that Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan holds the potential to surpass that of her father, Sasuke, and the Uchiha legacy itself.
Sarada’s Techniques Using Mangekyō Sharingan May Be the Most Powerful in the Naruto and Boruto Series
Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan not only has a unique appearance resembling a star but also shares similarities with Uchiha Obito’s Kamui technique. The main difference is that instead of creating a spatial dimension, it can accelerate time towards a specific point, akin to the functioning of a black hole. Sarada’s new technique expands her combat style, allowing her to manipulate space-time accurately while potentially harnessing her own energy.
Additionally, it has been confirmed that Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan is different from other Uchiha clan members; she does not suffer the same debilitating effects. This is related to what the Hokage, particularly Tobirama, mentioned about the Uchiha in Chapter 619 of the Naruto manga, stating that the Sharingan is “the eye of the heart’s left side.” The power of the Mangekyō Sharingan could help Sarada become stronger than her predecessors, reaching the levels needed to challenge formidable enemies.
This aspect is also highlighted in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 20, titled “For Love,” where Sarada uses her Mangekyō Sharingan to protect Boruto. Furthermore, as Sasuke’s daughter—who embodies the reincarnation of Indra and holds the potential to awaken the Rinnegan—she has the capacity to manifest even greater abilities.
Sarada May Not Face Limitations with Her Mangekyō Sharingan in Boruto
As such, Sarada may not encounter the same restrictions typically associated with Mangekyō Sharingan due to emotional burdens. When motivated by love, her abilities do not seem to weaken or suffer from backlash, unlike others who have struggled. In Obito’s case, it was never confirmed why he did not lose strength due to his Mangekyō Sharingan; however, people often conjecture that it was linked to Hashirama’s cells, which possess remarkable healing abilities.
However, Sarada also inherits the healing traits from Sakura, allowing her to train with her mother to awaken the Byakugō and heal herself during battles. Moreover, possessing the Byakugō will make Sarada a more formidable ninja, capable of healing herself and her allies in combat. Nevertheless, Sarada’s Mangekyō Sharingan is the next step to uncovering why she remains immune to the overwhelming powers of Eida and to attain the strength necessary to become Hokage.
