This article contains spoilers from the Boruto series.
Fans of the Naruto series know very well that Itachi Uchiha was, quite easily, one of the most talented ninjas that Kishimoto wrote into his story. He was an incredibly powerful ninja, especially known to be a prodigy. Since a very young age, Itachi Uchiha was a monster strong enough to beat even Jonin-level ninjas, and his Mangekyo Sharingan made him almost invincible. Before even hitting his prime, Itachi Uchiha was already far stronger than the likes of the Legendary Sannin and most other Konoha shinobi, including some Hokage, and that certainly goes to show his immense strength and talent.
Boruto: Kishimoto Reveals A New Eye In The Boruto Series, And It's Stronger Than The Rinnegan
The Rinnegan is strong, but it's far from the most powerful eye in Boruto.
However, Itachi certainly isn't the only big prodigy in the world of Naruto. With time, Kishimoto went on to reveal other mighty characters as well, especially in Boruto. Specifically, in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, fans have finally received a look at a new generation ninja so strong that even the famed Itachi Uchiha doesn't stand a chance. This character is none other than his very own niece, Sarada Uchiha, the daughter of Sasuke and Sakura.
Itachi Uchiha Has Officially Been Surpassed By Sarada Uchiha
Sarada Awakened The Strongest Mangekyo Sharingan
- Sarada can use black holes in combat
- She is stronger than Sasuke currently
Fans know Itachi Uchiha to be quite a powerful ninja who could hold his own against Kage-level enemies and even beat them easily. Itachi's basics as a ninja were incredibly strong and even without his Sharingan, he was a force to be reckoned with. As the story progressed, fans saw more of his ability, and it became increasingly clear that Itachi Uchiha was almost unstoppable. Itachi could use the powers of Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi in combat, and this combo made him essentially invincible. Itachi's strength was such that Pain and Obito refused to make a move on Konoha until he was dead.
You're a kind soul, Itachi. — Itachi Uchiha's parents
Say Hello To Naruto's New Power Even Greater Than Kurama
Kurama was Naruto's greatest power, but he lost him. Naruto's next power-up will be even greater in Boruto.
Now, however, a ninja stronger than Itachi Uchiha is officially here, and it's none other than Sarada. Sarada Uchiha wasn't all that special, and it goes without saying that her basics as a ninja are far inferior to those of Itachi. However, she's still quite strong, thanks to her Mangekyo Sharingan. After Sarada gained the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan, she has now become unstoppable. Her Mangekyo Sharingan allows her to create multiple Black Holes and suck in anything she wants with them. The gravity of the black holes is such that the target is instantly crushed. Even someone as strong as a Shinju isn't a match for Sarada's black holes.
It's okay to use that power of yours for someone you really love. — Yodo to Sarada Uchiha
Sarada Uchiha Hasn't Shown Her Full Power Yet
The Second Mangekyo Ability And Susanoo Are A Mystery Still
Fans know very well that Sarada Uchiha is already stronger than the likes of Itachi Uchiha and even the current Sasuke, who has lost his Rinnegan. But, what's shocking is that Sarada hasn't even shown the full power of her eyes yet. Sarada has disclosed one Mangekyo Sharingan ability so far. Yet, fans know very well that she actually has more. Her other Mangekyo Sharingan ability remains unknown so far, and what's more, she hasn't tapped into the power of her Susanoo yet. No matter which way fans look at it, the new Strongest Uchiha in Boruto has definitely surpassed both Itachi and Sasuke, unless the latter regains his Rinnegan. Fans of Sarada must be proud, especially knowing that she'll keep getting stronger as she is still far from her goal of becoming the Hokage.
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex's chapter 27 is set for its official release on October 19, 2025. The release time of the chapter is 10 AM EST/ 3 PM UTC. As always, fans can read the chapter officially for free on the Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump apps.
