How Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Can Fix Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan Flaw
SUMMARY
_Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 31 brings a critical Uchiha conflict back into focus: the inevitable blindness caused by the Mangekyō Sharingan. During the latest chapter, Sarada Uchiha activated her Mangekyō ability, Ōhirume, deploying its immense gravitational black spheres in combat.
However, Sarada’s vision is already deteriorating rapidly. Finding a solution is an immediate necessity for her survival. There are currently four possible ways in which Sarada can avoid going blind and, in some cases, be even stronger than before.
Shin Uchiha’s Eyes Could Cure Sarada’s Mangekyo Blindness
If you’ve been following the manga, you know that Mangekyō users can only cure their blindness and awaken the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan by transplanting the eyes of a close blood relative. For Sarada, who had awakened her Mangekyō, the only living blood relative possessing a Sharingan is her father, Sasuke Uchiha.
However, he only has one eye left, and he is also trapped in a tree. But there is a silver lining: the existence of Shin Uchiha offers a highly practical and accessible loophole to this biological constraint.
Shin Uchiha’s unique cellular composition allows him to accept any tissue, organ, or genetic transplant without facing rejection. Due to this mutation, he possesses multiple fully functional Sharingan implanted throughout his body.
Furthermore, the numerous Shin clones currently residing in the Konoha orphanage possess these exact same genetic traits and active dojutsu. Extracting eyes from one of the Shin clones presents the cleanest and most efficient path for Sarada to achieve the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
Natural Mangekyō Evolution Into Eternal Mangekyō (New Genetic Route)

Sarada possesses a distinct genetic profile that sets her entirely apart from previous Uchiha clan members. She is the biological daughter of Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno. While fans generally hate Sakura, she is still recognized for her unparalleled chakra control and cellular regeneration capabilities. This specific genetic combination can allow a new evolutionary route for the Sharingan dojutsu.
Sarada’s inherited traits from her mother could fundamentally allow her to counter the vision deterioration. Her advanced chakra control allows for maximum efficiency in energy distribution, potentially mitigating the localized damage caused by activating Ōhirume. Boruto: Two Blue Vortex has a consistent precedent for rewriting established power systems and introducing new genetic mutations.
Six Paths Chakra Interaction (Boruto or External Exposure)

The introduction of the Six Paths chakra eliminates the standard drawbacks associated with Mangekyō. When Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki granted Six Paths chakra directly to Sasuke, it enhanced his base ocular abilities and manifested a Rinnegan, removing any further threat of blindness. Boruto Uzumaki currently possesses genetics and chakra that closely mirror a full Ōtsutsuki.
His chakra reserves are practically equivalent to the Six Paths chakra. Direct exposure to Boruto’s chakra could act as a catalyst to stabilize Sarada’s deteriorating vision. Whether through deliberate chakra transfer to heal her or passive exposure during combat, Boruto’s Ōtsutsuki-level energy could repair her damaged optical cells and permanently evolve her eyes.
Sakura’s Byakugō Seal Could Permanently Stabilize Her Eyes

The deterioration of the Mangekyō Sharingan is a biological failure. The intense chakra required to manifest techniques like Ōhirume destroys the user’s eye cells. Sakura Haruno bypasses standard cellular damage through the Creation Rebirth technique and the Strength of a Hundred Seal (Byakugō Seal), even if it comes with its own drawbacks.
This specific medical jutsu forcibly stimulates cell division, instantly healing any tissue damage, regenerating organs, and preventing permanent physical degradation. Sarada is highly capable of learning and mastering the Byakugō Seal due to her precise chakra control.
If she achieves this milestone, the seal’s continuous regenerative properties could directly counteract the Mangekyō’s degenerative effects. As the frequent use of Ōhirume destroys her optical cells and severs her optic nerves, the Byakugō Seal would simultaneously and automatically regenerate them.
