The world ofBoruto: Two Blue Vortexhas been somewhat limited during its first fourteen chapters, but the latest development brings the welcome surprise,moving outside the confines of Konohaand its outer limits. Given the threat of the Divine Trees which threatens to engulf the ninja world once they consume their targets and attain self-actualization, it makes sense that they’d set their sights on other villages. WithSunagakure, the Village Hidden in the Sand’s most important family under attack, namely Shinki and Gaara,Boruto: Two Blue Vortextakes the tension and terror abroad.
WhileBoruto: Two Blue Vortexlargely focused on Konoha for its first chapters, there were still glimpses of the world first fleshed out by Masashi Kishimoto inNaruto.One abandoned hideout near the Land of Wind,confirming a fan theory about Orochimaru’s potential involvement in the series, indicatesa clear intent to incorporate the world outside Konoha. With an existential threat consuming Konoha and now Sunagakure’s greatest shinobi inBoruto: Two Blue Vortex, it’s becoming a question soon of where this threat will spread next.

The Divine Trees Menace Sunagakure and the Sand Siblings
InBoruto: Two Blue Vortexchapter #14’s last pages, Shikamaru is contacted by Kankuro to alert him that Sunagakure’s Kazekage, Gaara, and his son Shinki have been taken down but are still alive.Kankuro expands to say that Shinki has the “tree affliction,” likely referring to him turning into a miniature Divine Treelike Sasuke, Bug, and Moegi. The prospect of these Divine Trees being able to subdue and add to their numbers from even the mightiest defenders of one of the five great shinobi countries is frightening, but it also expands the scope ofBoruto: Two Blue Vortex.

Naruto introduced the Otsutsuki clan into its canon, but Boruto: Two Blue Vortex explores the godly potential of its most enigmatic figure, Shibai.
While Shinki and Gaara’s presence inBoruto: Naruto Next Generations’manga is largely limited after chapter #10, albeit with far more episodes in theBorutoanime’s mixed-canon filler arcs, neither had appeared inTwo Blue Vortexuntil now. With the power of the Divine Trees creating enough divergent uncertain futures pivoting toward disaster inBoruto, it’s clear that the threat would have to move abroad to expand its reach. But as the Divine Trees branch out on their quest for knowledge, this will also make future chapters ofBoruto: Two Blue Vortexmore thrilling.

Perhaps a New Allied Shinobi Force to Tackle Another Ten-Tails Threat?
With Shinki’s consumption resulting in the birth ofRyu, the next Divine Tree to join Jura’s team, fears may begin to rise in the shinobi world about a diminishing period of peace inBoruto. Sunagakure’s mightiest sons have buckled, soit’s tough to say how much better the villages hidden in the Stone, Mist, or Clouds will fare, but they will likely appear soon. While some of the Kage have fascinating moments inBoruto,like Darui, Chōjūrō, and Ōnoki, before his retirement, other characters, like the Suna shinobi, were forgotten beforeTwo Blue Vortex.
The Divine Trees have a pattern of consuming one character to create a new member of their ranks, who then wishes to consume those close to their chakra sources inBoruto: Two Blue Vortex. With Shinki consumed, Ryu will likely go after Gaara or the other Sand Siblings like Kankuro or Temari; should the threat spread to the Mist, it could mean Mei or Chōjūrō being consumed, bringing the other into the fray, and so forth.This suggests cooperation from other ninjas inBoruto: Two Blue Vortex, indicating the possibility of exciting and dynamic new battles.

Classic Fan-Favorites and New Generations Return
Beyond the exciting emergence of Suna shinobi inBoruto: Two Blue Vortex, evenNaruto’s former disciples are shining in recent chapters. Konohamaru Sarutobi even features in chapter #14 during Boruto’s interrogation, where he learns that Moegi Kazamatsuri, with whom he grew up and idolized Naruto, was consumed and is the chakra source for Matsuri. With Matsuri on the hunt for Konohamaru as her designated target, this will undoubtedly result in a confrontation between the two,allowing the supporting characters ofBoruto: Two Blue Vortexto seize their moments.
Whether this holds in future chapters is up to Kishimoto and Mikio Ikemoto. However, the most natural path forward inBoruto: Two Blue Vortexis to follow the Divine Trees through the shinobi world. Each of these sentient beings has the power of the Ten-Tailed Beast, so there’s already a frightening glimpse at their power, as it once ravaged even the Allied Shinobi Forces in the final arc ofNaruto. It seems doubtful that this is any form of an endgame forBoruto: Two Blue Vortexjust yet, but it could revitalize the shinobi world, for better or worse.
