Sasuke's Rinnegan is a powerful ability, but will he regain it in Boruto Part 2?
At the same time, many characters made their return, among which was also one of the most beloved characters of all time, Sasuke Uchiha. Most importantly, however, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 4 introduced fans to new villains and they are clones created by the 10 Tails.
The Introduction Of New Villains In Boruto: TBV
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex showcased the 10 Tails once again in the chapter. The 10 Tails in Boruto has been a very important figure on the side that not many fans have been paying a lot of attention to. Although many powerful figures come and go, the Ten Tails remains. Isshiki made use of this 10 Tails quite a lot and, after him, Code also started making use of it. Fans know that Code used the power of his Claw Marks on the 10 Tails and forced it to divide into smaller figures. There was evidence that the 10 Tails were slowly evolving into something else entirely as some of the Claw Grimes that Code ended up creating had the Rinnegan, while others didn't.
Fans did not pay much attention to it at first, but as the story progressed, it became clearer that these Claw Grimes are more dangerous than Code had imagined. In Boruto: TBV chapter 4, it was finally revealed that the continuous evolution of these 10 Tails Claw Grimes would eventually lead the world to its complete destruction. This is precisely what Boruto warned Code about previously and finally, this process was completed in this chapter of the manga. Towards the end of the chapter, the 10 Tails completely vanished and four new villains appeared, and it is clear to the fans that these four villains are created from the 10 Tails itself and have their own conscience as well as personalities. Thanks to Code, they have evolved into something much more dangerous and the ninja world will now be facing even bigger threats.
How The Ten Tails Evolved In Boruto
The evolution of 10 Tails in Boruto happened in a very simple manner and was brought forth by none other than Code himself. Towards the end of the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga, it was clear that Code wanted to utilize the 10 Tails in combat when he attacked Konoha. To that end, he used the powers of his Claw Marks on the 10 Tails and started dividing into much smaller creatures. These creatures were the size of normal humans and they appear to be somewhat powerful. The strength of each creature differed, however. While some were easily taken care of by the Genin of the next generation, others gave them trouble and some were even equipped with stronger abilities, such as the Rinnegan itself.
Boruto Uzumaki's Sage Mode, Explained
Boruto Uzumaki will undoubtably unlock sage mode in Boruto Part 2.
Boruto recently explained that he needed to deal with the 10 Tails because if he didn't do so, then the world would face utter destruction. Essentially, Code provided a taste of the finer things to the 10 Tails and forced it to evolve. That is precisely what ended up happening in the previous chapter as, towards the end of it, the 10 Tails completely vanished, and out came four powerful new villains. The 10 Tails is directly connected to all forms of life itself and, as a result, its growth and evolution are constant. Now, it has reached a point where it's past merely looking out for chakra and has developed sentience as well as the ability to carefully take its decision for itself. It is divided into four powerful monstrous creatures with humanoid appearances and it now poses a much bigger threat to humanity than ever before.
The Shinju Clones
In Boruto: TBV chapter 4, fans were introduced to four new powerful villains. All of them are incredibly strong, as seen when one of them attacked Boruto in combat. In fact, they even managed to overpower Boruto in terms of physical strength and could have killed him had Boruto not managed to escape at the right time. The strength of these powerful individuals is nothing short of incredible and they aren't even fully developed yet. As mentioned by these clones themselves, they are still in the process of evolution and, thus, are getting stronger. Their powers are incredible, however, that is not the biggest shock that they brought forth in the manga chapter.
The biggest shock is the fact that these 10 Tails clones are related to characters that fans already know. Essentially, whoever the Claw Grimes and up taking a bite of gets turned into a 10 Tail Tree. The person who gets turned into a tree has their chakra, along with other things, stored inside the Ten Tails, which allows for the beast itself to evolve. For instance, Bug was turned into a tree by one of the Grimes, and, one of the four villains that was introduced in Boruto took the appearance of Bug.
Similarly, it was revealed in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 4 that Sasuke was turned into a tree as well. This means that Sasuke was bitten by one of the Claw Grimes that Code created and, as a result, one of the new villains that were introduced in the Boruto manga has the appearance of Sasuke. There are two more clones that fans know of in the story right now whose origins remain mysterious.
One of them bears the appearance of Moegi, however, it is unknown if it truly is based on her or if it is a random person. The last one is very similar to Jigen in terms of appearance. However, fans know that Jigen simply does not exist any longer. This means that this character could end up being another random person or someone that the fans know but cannot think of just yet. With time, fans will have their answers.
How Strong Are The Shinju Clones?
The 10 Tails clones are certainly very powerful. Fans know that they are much stronger than any of the previous Kara Inners. For instance, Code stood absolutely no chance in combat against Boruto. However, Bug, who isn't even particularly strong, was easily able to overpower Boruto in combat. Had it not been for the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, Boruto Uzumaki could very well have died on the spot. Meanwhile, Sasuke's 10 Tails Clone appears to be even stronger. He was seen making use of Sasuke's Jutsu, such as Lightning Release, without much trouble and, once again, forced Boruto to utilize all of his strength in an attempt to protect himself. It is clear that these 10 Tails clones are incredibly powerful, however, the scariest part is that they are still in the process of evolution and will likely get even stronger as time passes.
Boruto is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of Boruto, Boruto part 2 chapter 5, is set to be December 20, 2023.
