Boruto Uzumaki Vs Jura Begins
Boruto: Two Blue Vortexwas always going to give fans a big clashbetween Boruto and Jura eventually. Fans simply didn’t know when it was going to happen. In this month’s Boruto chapter, fans finally got the brilliant battle between these two monsters. As Boruto Uzumaki arrived on the battlefield to finish off Matsuri, Jura, who was patiently waiting for his arrival, finally got what he wanted.
Much to the surprise of the fans,Jura, who could’ve easily saved his comradesby retrieving their Thorn Soul Bulb if he wanted, didn’t particularly care about that. His desire right now is to defeat Boruto, and it seems he’s dead set on that. That’s why he aimed for Boruto Uzumaki immediately after arriving on the battlefield, which just goes to show that he’s not here to play around.
Boruto Is Already Out Of His Depth Vs Jura
Uzuhiko Failed To Leave Lasting Damage Vs Jura
One big thing that Boruto Uzumaki was banking on when the fight Vs Jura began inTwo Blue Vortexchapter 22 was Uzuhiko. Fans know thatRasengan Uzuhiko is his strongest Jutsu, and it goes without saying that if he had any chance of winning against Jura, it would be through Uzuhiko. Boruto was actually somewhat impressive in the fight against Jura, managing to sneak up on him on more than one occasion. Boruto even managed to launch his ultimate Jutsu, completely impairing the balance of the Shinju, which was certainly a great show of strength from him.
Jura Counters Uzuhiko
While Jura certainlywas affected by Uzuhiko, it didn’t take him long to understand the nature of the technique. Jura immediately realized that it was similar to his very own Tailed Beast Ball, which meant that by using his own chakra, he could nullify Uzuhiko without too much trouble. Now, it’s practically confirmed that Boruto Uzumaki is out of his depth and that he’s in this battle to try to survive as long as possible. Meanwhile, Jura hasn’t even shown half of his real strength. At the moment, the future looks grim for Boruto, and fans will simply have to wait for a month to see who truly ends up winning the battle.
