How Sarada Became The Strongest Kunoichi In History

Unlocked the Most Powerful Mangekyo Sharingan

Fans always knew there was a lot in store for Sarada Uchiha. After all, she is the daughter of both Sasuke and Sakura, two of the strongest ninjas in the world.

However, she has often been sidelined in the story of Boruto for other characters, notably Boruto and Kawaki. This has changed recently with the newer Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapters where she takes center stage.

Fans know that Sarada originally unlocked her Mangekyo Sharingan near the end of the first part of the Boruto manga — triggered by the reveal of Naruto’s death, especially as it was followed by the impending death of Boruto. The trauma led her to obtain this power, but until now, she didn’t use it.

In the battle against the Shinju, however, she showcased just how powerful she is with her Mangekyo Sharingan. Her Mangekyo Sharingan Jutsu is known as Ohirume, which translates to Great Sun Goddess. Her powers were such that she was able to pretty much one-shot a member of the Shinju, Ryu. This is a very impressive feat, as fans have seen other characters struggle and fail at doing that.

Her powers allow her to create spheres and control their gravitational pull. She can crush anyone by using them. Her powers are definitely not to be underestimated, and the best part is she might have another powerful ability in her other eye, but that’s to be seen as the story progresses.

How Sarada Compares to Other Female Characters

Sarada Has Surpassed Tsunade and Sakura

When it comes to other ninjas, Sarada is by far the strongest female character in the series right now. When someone thinks of powerful female characters in Naruto and Boruto, the other two that come to mind are Sakura and Tsunade. Tsunade was a powerful Sannin, on par with Jiraiya and Orochimaru. Her strength and healing power are incredible and her battle against Madara showcases just that in the Fourth Ninja War.

And of course, Sakura is everything Tsunade is, but even better, as her greatest student. Sakura fought bravely in the Fourth Great Ninja War and showcased her skills. However, Sakura never reached the level of other Team 7 members, Sasuke and Naruto. Up until recently, Sarada was the strongest Kunoichi in Boruto.

Many fans hope that Sarada learns more from Sakura as her daughter. Sarada could be able to use her Mangekyo Sharingan infinitely if she can unlock the same healing abilities as her mother, which she definitely has the potential for. A powerful Uchiha with the Byakugou seal and healing powers would be simply unstoppable.

Aside from that, when including all known female characters in Naruto and Boruto, then one character remains stronger than Sarada, and that’s Kaguya Otsutsuki. Kaguya, as an Otsutsuki, is insanely powerful, and was the final enemy in the Naruto series. Sarada still has a long way ahead of her if she ever hopes to surpass the progenitor of chakra, who was, until the Boruto story started, the strongest character known in the series.

The Boruto series will definitely showcase a bunch of strong female characters, but none will really compare to Sarada, as she is the only main female character. The other female ninjas fall short and have no hope of even coming close.

Eida has a powerful ability in Boruto, but she’s not much of a fighter, and Sakura isn’t very involved at the moment in the story, although fans would love to see her more in action.

Overall, the only way a female character in Boruto could rival Sarada is if a new female Otsutsuki makes an entrance, which is definitely possible as there are two Otsutsuki members that have yet to be revealed.

Sarada’s goal to become the Hokage is definitely a possibility, especially as she’s not only the strongest Kunoichi at the moment, but probably the second strongest Ninja right now.
