Introduction
The Boruto series continues to surprise fans with powerful new abilities and intense plot developments. One of the most exciting moments in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex was the reawakening of Sarada Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan. Unlike any previous Uchiha ability, Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan grants her the power to create black holes, making her one of the most formidable characters in the series. This blog will dive deep into how Sarada awakened her ability, how her black hole technique works, and its potential implications in the Boruto universe.
How Sarada Reawakened Her Mangekyo Sharingan
The First Awakening
Sarada first awakened her Mangekyo Sharingan during the original Boruto: Naruto Next Generations series when she was overcome with grief after witnessing the apparent death of Naruto Uzumaki. In the Uchiha clan, the Mangekyo Sharingan is awakened through intense emotional trauma, usually due to the loss of a loved one. Sarada's emotions, combined with her unwavering determination, triggered the awakening of her special eyes.
The Reawakening in the Land of Wind
After her initial awakening, Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan power remained dormant for some time. However, in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 20, Sarada once again unlocked the full extent of her abilities while fighting a Shinju entity named Ryu in the Land of Wind. With her back against the wall and no other way to protect her comrades, she finally accessed the true potential of her Mangekyo Sharingan.
Yodo, one of her allies, encouraged her by saying:
"It's okay to use that power for someone who is dear to you."
This reminder helped Sarada overcome her hesitation and unleash her newfound power. The result? One of the most overpowered Mangekyo Sharingan abilities ever seen in the Naruto and Boruto universe.
How Sarada's Mangekyo Sharingan Black Hole Ability Works
The Nature of Sarada’s Power
Sarada’s ability allows her to create black holes with gravitational pull, which can absorb objects, attacks, and even enemies into a void. This technique is fundamentally different from existing space-time abilities like Kamui, making it unique and extremely dangerous.
Similarities and Differences with Kamui
While Kamui (used by Obito and Kakashi) enables its user to teleport objects into another dimension, Sarada’s ability functions more like a real black hole, creating an intense gravitational force that pulls in everything nearby. Here’s how it compares:
Feature | Sarada's Black Hole | Kamui (Obito/Kakashi) |
---|---|---|
Function | Creates a gravitational singularity to pull in matter | Transfers objects into a separate dimension |
Effect Range | Wide AoE (Area of Effect) | Single target or close-range vortex |
Susanoo Integration | Likely can be weaponized with Susanoo | Integrated with Kamui Shuriken in Kakashi’s case |
Accessibility | Requires Mangekyo Sharingan activation | Requires both Mangekyo Sharingan eyes to be fully utilized |
Evidence of the Black Hole Effect
In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 20, Sarada demonstrated her power by using her Black Hole Mangekyo Sharingan against Ryu, absorbing his Iron Sand attacks completely. Even Mitsuki was shocked by the ability, stating:
"What happened? The Iron Sand is gone. Those eyes, that's the Mangekyo Sharingan!"
The black hole effect suggests an intense gravitational force that can erase matter. This means Sarada has the potential to erase attacks, disable enemies, or even trap foes in an inescapable gravitational void.
The Implications of Sarada's Black Hole Ability
1. One of the Strongest Mangekyo Sharingan Abilities Ever
The Mangekyo Sharingan grants its users unique and powerful techniques, but Sarada’s Black Hole ability surpasses many of them. Let’s compare it to other famous Mangekyo Sharingan powers:
Mangekyo Ability | User | Effectiveness |
---|---|---|
Amaterasu | Itachi/Sasuke | Indestructible flames, but can be avoided |
Tsukuyomi | Itachi | Instant Genjutsu, but requires direct eye contact |
Kotoamatsukami | Shisui | Mind control, but has a long cooldown period |
Kamui | Obito/Kakashi | Dimension travel, but requires both eyes for full power |
Black Hole | Sarada | Can erase matter instantly, making it one of the most destructive abilities |
2. Susanoo Integration Possibilities
Since Kakashi was able to integrate Kamui with his Susanoo, it stands to reason that Sarada could do the same with her Black Hole ability. Imagine a Susanoo sword infused with the power of a black hole—it would mean instant erasure for anything it touches!
3. Can Sarada Defeat Code, Kawaki, or Boruto?
With this new power, Sarada has now entered the ranks of the strongest characters in Boruto. Here’s how she might fare against key opponents:
- Vs. Code: Code’s Claw Marks allow him to teleport, but Sarada’s Black Hole ability could erase his markings and prevent him from escaping.
- Vs. Kawaki: Kawaki’s absorption ability might struggle against the gravitational force of Sarada’s attack, making him vulnerable.
- Vs. Boruto: Boruto’s mastery of space-time ninjutsu might allow him to evade her attack, making this a battle of strategy rather than brute force.
4. Future Potential: Can She Open Dimensional Rifts?
If Sarada’s Black Hole ability evolves, it could allow her to manipulate space itself. This could mean:
- Teleportation via black holes
- Creating wormholes for instant travel
- Absorbing larger-scale attacks like Tailed Beast Bombs
If she gains eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, her abilities will become even stronger, potentially rivaling the Rinnegan!
Final Thoughts: The Future of Sarada Uchiha
Sarada Uchiha’s Black Hole Mangekyo Sharingan ability is one of the most groundbreaking techniques introduced in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. This power not only elevates her combat potential but also hints at her future importance in the series. With abilities that can erase matter and manipulate gravity, she may soon become one of the strongest Uchiha of all time, surpassing even her father, Sasuke Uchiha.
As the Boruto story unfolds, Sarada’s power is sure to play a major role in battles against powerful foes like Code, Kawaki, and the Otsutsuki Clan. The upcoming Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 21, set for release on April 18, 2025, may reveal even more about her abilities and their limits.
