With Konohamaru Sarutobi now looking set to take on Matsuri in combat after failing foolishly to keep up his act, and Sarada’s team being tricked by Ryu in remarkable fashion following Yodo's mistake, the big battles are finally upon the fans.

Konohamaru Vs Matsuri Will Begin In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 19

Konohamaru’s Stupidity With Matsuri Was Shocking
A New Battle Has Now Began

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 19 is most definitely going to give the fans a battle between Konohamaru Sarutobi and Matsuri, especially after the events of the previous chapter. In chapter 18, Konohamaru and Matsuri engaged in a rather bizarre conversation that didn't really have any substance to it. Fans expected the author to develop the relationship between Matsuri and Konohamaru better, even if it was intended to blow up eventually anyway. Clearly, the conversation between Konohamaru and Matsuri felt lackluster to the fans and only served to get the plot to the point where a battle erupts.

Is this about Moegi Kazamatsuri? What is she to you? — Matsuri

The author put very little effort into the setup, as was the case with the battle that was set up for Ryu. To sum up the conversation, Matsuri wanted to be more affectionate with Konohamaru and use a personal honorific for him, which Konohamaru didn't want her to use because it was exclusively used by Moegi. Given how big a mission Konohamaru was entrusted by Shikamaru and what is at stake here, this was a monumental mess up on the part of the Konoha ninja that no fan can truly believe. Regardless, it got the job done in a very poor way and set up a battle between Konohamaru Sarutobi and Matsuri, which is exactly what the next chapter is going to focus on.

Given that Matsuri started creating wood appendages to attack Konohamaru, it is highly likely that Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 19 will showcase her Wood Style powers properly. This will be quite interesting, especially since Wood Release is a power that fans haven't seen much of in the story ever since Hashirama Senju. At the same time, this is an opportunity for Konohamaru Sarutobi to show how he's developed over the course of the last few years as well.

It must be remembered that the three-year timeskip was significant for just about every major character in Boruto. Konohamaru, who was quite weak before the timeskip, must've worked upon his strength greatly here, especially if he intends to be the Hokage one day. Provided that he's done ample training, fans will most likely see a power-up coming his way soon. While it is hard to predict what exactly it will be, readers should expect Sage Mode, given his contract with Toads. This would elevate the battle against Matsuri to a very exciting level and fans will finally get to see what Konohamaru has got in store.

Sarada And Mitsuki Shine Vs Ryu

Ryu Is Set To Attack Everyone

In the previous chapter of Boruto, it became clear to the fans that Sarada Uchiha and her team were going to struggle greatly vs Ryu. Yodo was the one who destroyed the entire plan for her team due to her hasty nature and poor performance, and Araya was the one who came to everyone's rescue and prevented the battle from ending in seconds. Now, it'll be up to the team to collaborate properly and beat Ryu in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 19.

One thing that's clear is the fact that Araya is going to be playing a support role here. He can use his techniques to break others free from the Iron Sand and that should be his main focus with his sword. In a sense, he'll be providing cover for the ninjas moving forward and keeping them safe from the Iron Sand. If he keeps that up, fans will most definitely get to see the other ninjas shine.

Seems like you fell for my bait. I sensed a betrayal from you. I was right. – Ryu

It must be kept in mind that Yodo has been absolutely useless in the battle so far, which means that she might be getting her own moments moving forward in Boruto: TBV chapter 19.

This is likely to be the case because the author will most likely want to end the battle with the main stars taking the spotlight, meaning the likes of Sarada Uchiha and Mitsuki will get their shine as the story progresses. As such Araya and Yodo should be under the spotlight in Boruto: TBV chapter 19, showcasing to everyone what they've learned and how they've grown.

But, this battle isn't just about the ninjas. Clearly, Ryu is a massive player here and fans know that it is incredibly important for him to make an impression if he is to be remembered as a memorable villain. This is his opportunity to utilize the power of the Iron Sand and combine it effectively with the Rinnegan to push the ninjas on the back foot and force them to bring out their best.

Kawaki's Steps Out To Fight Jura

Kawaki's Upgrades Will Likely Be Completed in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 19

Undoubtedly, Kawaki will have a very important role to play moving forward in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. For now, he's weak but Amado will soon see to it that he transforms completely. Although Kawaki's power-up coming from a simple tweak in the settings is rather lame, it gets the job done and makes him stronger. Fans will definitely see that happening soon, possibly in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 19.

If Kawaki is successfully switched to attack more in Boruto: TBV chapter 19, then it is highly likely that he'll want to test his powers out. Curiously enough, Jura is still in the village right now, which means Kawaki could be heading out to fight him and test his powers. This will be Kawaki's opportunity to shine, only to be humbled by Jura once again. However, this could then set up an incredible battle since Boruto Uzumaki would likely join in too, making the fight against Kawaki a 2v1.

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: Two Blue Vortex chapter 19, is set to be February 20, 2025.
