The Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga has been progressing steadily. Fans are quite happy with how the story is shaping up. Additionally, fan-favorite characters have received massive upgrades to their arsenal as well. The protagonist’s entry in the manga created quite a buzz on various social media platforms. He managed to harness the rotational energy of the planet and impart it in his Rasengan. This is quite advanced, and it goes to show just how far he has come in the series.

Furthermore, he surpassed Sasuke Uchiha in his prime and learned every technique that the Clan was capable of. However, he isn’t the only one who came back stronger. Himawari Uzumaki also received massive upgrades to her arsenal. In fact, she became a Nine-Tailed Beast Jinchuriki in the recent manga chapters. However, fans have reason to believe that Himawari’s most underrated technique will play an important role in the Boruto manga. 

There is no doubt that Himwari will play an important role in the manga. She was sidelined in the manga for the longest time, and she finally has the spotlight. She has Kurama within her, and he revealed that he has the best synergy with her. This implies that Himwari has the ability to surpass her father in his prime. With all that said, the ability that could make all the difference might not be the most popular one. Kishimoto and Ikemoto are known for shocking fans with some of the most outrageous moves at crucial moments. The underrated technique in question has to do with her abilities as a member of the Hyuga Clan.

Himawari was quite young during the earlier parts of the series. Therefore, we didn’t get to see much of her. Furthermore, there was no way for viewers to gauge her potential. The only time fans got a glimpse of her abilities was when she punched Naruto, and even Kurama felt it. She is capable of using the Gentle Fist, which goes to show that she can access most, if not all, Hyuga abilities. Additionally, she is a descendant of the main house, which means she is genetically gifted. 

Now that she has grown up, she is capable of protecting herself on the battlefield. The writing indicates that Himawari will have plenty of opportunities to showcase her abilities at crucial points. There have been plenty of theories surrounding the possibility of Himawari helping Boruto at an important stage in the manga.

Furthermore, she is the protagonist’s sibling. Usually, writers will allocate some portion of screen time for such characters during the business end of the manga. Therefore, we have reason to believe that Himwari could help Boruto when the fate of the world hangs in the balance. 

Theory Surrounding Himawari’s Most Underrated Technique

As mentioned earlier, Himawari’s Hyuga Clan abilities could be the very thing that could turn the tides in Boruto’s favor. It’s clear that the Shinju aren’t the main antagonists and that there’s greater power at play. Therefore, it’s important that Boruto has all the help that he can get when he’s pitted against some of the strongest characters. This theory hinges on the fact that the final antagonist is someone who adheres to the chakra power system.

This is when the concept of Tenkketsu comes in. Hyuga Clan members have access to the Byakugan. This eye gives plenty of power to the users. One of them allows the user to perceive the chakra nodes in the body. There are over 300 nodes that wind within the human body, and those who have the ability to see it can also strike it with precision. When this is done, one can shut down the chakra node, stopping the chakra from flowing to that point. Therefore, someone like Himawari can quite literally kill someone by attacking the nodes and stopping the flow of chakra.

Himawari has already shown plenty of promise early on in the series. Furthermore, she has the potential to surpass her father. Therefore, it’s highly likely that Himawari will use her Hyuga Clan abilities to thwart a tough opponent. It is unlikely that she will single-handedly take the villain down. However, she could be of great assistance in either dealing considerable damage or fighting someone who is siding with the antagonists.

Himawari has become the Nine-Tailed Beast Jinchuriki in the manga series. This granted her immense powers. While Naruto took plenty of time to use Kurama’s chakra, Himawari managed to incorporate it into her new transformation. This shows that her understanding of Kurama’s chakra is far better.

Furthermore, she even threw out a much smaller version of a Tailed Beast Bomb. Additionally, she even healed Shikadai’s mortal wounds in a matter of seconds. She went toe to toe with Jura and managed to stay alive during the skirmish. Himawari has shown plenty of promise over the past few chapters of the Two Blue Vortex manga chapters.

There is a high chance that Masashi Kishimoto is waiting to show Himawari’s true potential later on in the series. Furthermore, she hails from one of the most prominent clans. Therefore, the writers will do their best to lay some emphasis on her Byakugan abilities as well.

With these points in mind, she will be instrumental in bringing about peace in Konohagakure. Tension is at an all-time high, and the village could use every bit of help that they can get. Himawari has far too much potential to be sidelined. The spotlight will shine on her at the right time. However, fans must stay patient and wait for the subsequent chapters to be released.

Conclusion

This theory hinges on two very important points. The first point is that Himawari’s opponent will either be the final antagonist or their lackey. The second point focuses on the character adhering to the power system of the series. This implies that the antagonist in question is someone whose existence depends on the flow of chakra. Some might even make a case for how Himawari could potentially get involved in the Boruto vs Kawaki fight. That being said, we urge the fanbase to wait for Two Blue Vortex to progress in order to get a clear understanding of whether or not the theory is true.
