Sasuke's supposed death in Boruto has caused quite a bit of controversy among the fan community, especially after the recent drop of Chapter 8 of Two Blue Vortex. This chapter reveals some interesting details, focusing on Jura and Himawari.
And guess who else showed up? Hidari, one of the entities of the God Tree follows Jura, but on an unfriendly mission: hunting down Naruto Uzumaki. But the key point here is how does this relate to Sasuke's fate in Boruto? Well, buckle up because something interesting is about to happen.
It looks like there will be a showdown between SaradaUchiha and Hidari in the next chapters. But let's back up a bit and dissect what we know from previous chapters and what fans are speculating.
So each of these Divine Tree entities has its eyes on someone. For example, Hidari captured Sasuke and even turned into his doppelgänger. But here's the thing—they all seemed to target individuals closely related to the shinobi they had sealed. Like, the entity that sealed Moegi? Yes, she was aiming for Konohamaru.
Now, here's the kicker: if Sarada manages to take out Hidari or completely drain Sasuke's chakra in the process, things could get messy. Final game? Eliminate anything that threatens the peace of the village, even if it means destroying entities like Hidari.

But wait, some fans are counting on Sarada to pull through. We haven't seen her combat skills in action yet, but it's safe to assume she leveled up during the timeskip like the rest of her crew.
As if that wasn't dramatic enough, the shinobi sealed by these entities were having their chakra drained and pumped into the entities. Sakura defeats Hidari? Yes, that could cause trouble for Sasuke if his chakra is completely depleted.
And here's another theory that comes up: if Hidari kicked the bucket, it could have a ripple effect on Sasuke. These two seem to be tied somehow, so Sarada taking down Hidari could mean a veil for her old man.
Now, we know Masashi Kishimoto isn't afraid to stir hearts—remember Naruto's nerf and Kurama's send-off? Well, it doesn't look good for Sasuke if history repeats itself.
But hey, let's not jump to conclusions. While Sasuke's death seems a long time coming, fans are still worried. Can he survive the next chapters? Only time will tell.
