Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 28 is shaping up to be one of the most impactful chapters of the post–time skip era.

Fans are praising this installment for its pacing and layered storytelling — multiple characters unlock new power-ups, the threat of Manmushi grows, and Konoha prepares for an incoming disaster while setting aside Boruto’s status as a “traitor” for the sake of survival.

The chapter opens with Inojin training under Kashin Koji, and their progress hints at a technique that could be the turning point of the coming battle.

Although the manga has not fully confirmed how it works, the jutsu appears to condense an enormous amount of chakra into a single concentrated space.

Koji suggests this technique draws heavily from powerful ancient arts — making its future role even more intriguing.

Surprisingly, the chapter also delivers a lighthearted interaction between Boruto and Inojin, where Boruto jokingly threatens to shave Inojin’s head if he makes Himawari cry.

It highlights a subtle rivalry-siblings-style bond, revealing that Boruto may quietly be rooting for Inojin’s growth.

The scene is short-lived, though, as the narrative quickly pivots to Konoha’s escalating political tension.

Meanwhile, Mitsuki is interrogated by Lord Kobo, who implies that his past connection with Orochimaru might be tied to Boruto’s escape.

This is a clever way of reminding the audience of unresolved loyalties while planting seeds of distrust around Mitsuki’s current alignment.

Although this chapter focuses heavily on combat development, the political undercurrent signals a growing internal crisis inside the village.

Boruto’s upgraded sword and the return of real Karma control

The highlight of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 28 comes when Boruto receives his newly enhanced sword.

After requesting adjustments from Sumire, she not only repaired the weapon but redesigned it to maintain a chakra-cloaked Hagoromo mode automatically.

All Boruto needs to do is hold the blade, and the sword channels the required chakra itself.

The weapon also includes a defensive limiter: anyone not registered to the sword will immediately lose enormous amounts of chakra upon contact.

Sumire added this function specifically to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. The chapter then demonstrates Boruto’s progress — he eliminates a Manmushi clone instantly, proving how far he has come.

The dark timeline: the deaths of Himawari and Ada

One of the bleakest moments comes when Kashin Koji reveals a possible alternate future where Himawari and Ada both die. The vision shows Eno holding a dying Himawari, while Ada’s body is fused into the Shinju tree.

This implies that if Ada falls, Damon must have already been defeated, reinforcing that the Shinju are capable of overpowering the strongest characters introduced so far.

Koji refuses to share further details, claiming that too much knowledge could trigger severe consequences.

Kawaki’s next evolution and what follows after Chapter 28

The chapter closes by teasing Kawaki undergoing an upgrade through a mysterious experiment conducted by Amado.

While the specifics remain hidden, it’s clear that both Boruto and Kawaki are being molded for their inevitable showdown.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 28 is packed with momentum — power progression, long-term foreshadowing, and emotional stakes.

With Karma control restored, the Shinju threat rising, and alternate futures hinting at tragic outcomes, the narrative is accelerating toward its next major conflict where every decision could reshape the fate of the shinobi world.
