New power ups are comig to the Bortuo manga. Three characters will get more powerful.
Fans know Sarada to be a very talented ninja with potential to reach sky-high levels, but her true powers are yet to show in Boruto. Fans are adamant that Sarada will, at some point, go on to utilize the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan that she’s awakened over the years. However, that may not be enough and there could be a need for a Rinnegan, especially if she’s to keep up with the monsters of the Boruto world, such as Boruto Uzumaki, Kawaki, Jura, Hidari, and the other mighty characters.
How Sarada Uchiha’s Powers Have Developed Over The Years
- Sarada’s Control Over The Sharingan is Impressive
- Sarada Has Attained The Mangekyo Sharingan
Sarada Uchiha is quite easily one of the most talented ninjas that the fans have seen over the years. Having been born as Sauske’s daughter, it is not a surprise for try fans to know that Sarada possesses tremendous strength and that her potential is sky-high, which could allow her to reach the same level of power as her predecessors. Sarada awakened the Sharingan quite early and as she progressed in the story from an Academy member to a Genin, her powers certainly evolved quite a lot. She has shown incredible control over the Sharingan, having evolved it into a fully mature eye with three tomoe. Sarada can easily go head-to-head with some very impressive fighters. Even recently, in Two Blue Vortex, fans saw Sarada engage in combat with Hidari, although only for a short period of time. During this clash, Sarada was able to dodge his attacks and even injure him with a powerful Chidori, something that clearly shows that she’s strong enough to reach the next level as a fighter.
Papa, please don’t let Boruto die. Please! — Sarada Uchiha
On top of what Sarada has already accomplished, fans know that her true powers are still hidden. Sarada Uchiha is a user of the Mangekyo Sharingan and she awakened this eye right when the series entered its timeskip. Upon hearing about Naruto Uzumaki’s death and fearing the capture of Boruto Uzumaki, Sarada’s emotions led to the awakenings of the Mangekyo Sharingan, giving her far greater power than ever before. However, whether she knows that she possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan or not remains to be seen. If Sarada is truly aware of the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan that she holds, then it goes without saying that she must’ve trained in its ways during the three years and become even stronger. However, if she still doesn’t know of her true powers, then fans can expect Sarada to hit a high level in Two Blue Vortex, possibly in the Hidden Sand Village, where she fights against the Shinju.
Why The Mangekyo Sharingan Might Not Be Enough
Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan Can’t Compete With The Otsutsuki
It goes without saying that Sarada Uchiha is quite strong and with the Mangekyo Sharingan, she’s going to be even stronger. Sarada will surely be at a level where she can handle some of the biggest threats in Konoha without much trouble. However, this power level is still not going to be enough to match the likes of the Shinju, or any other Otsutsuki that might show up later down the line in the Boruto series. The Mangekyo Sharingan, as seen historically in the Naruto series, grants two abilities, one in each eye, and a powerful Susanoo. Even though the abilities can be tremendously overpowered at times, they’re still not strong enough to allow one to compete with an Otsutsuki.

Boruto will feature many deaths. Some beloved characters will die.
This is why the likes of Sasuke had to develop a Rinnegan, and precisely why Kakashi could only rival Kaguya after receiving Six Paths chakra from Obito when he died.
How much can you see with that Sharingan of yours? — Itachi Uchiha
There is no denying the fact that the Mangekyo Sharingan is going to make Sarada Uchiha very powerful. After all, she’s far from the likes of Kawaki and Boruto right now, so she does need this power-up. For now, it should suffice to see her compete against some powerful enemies, such as Ryu, especially when she joins forces with the Sunagakure ninja and has Mitsuki on her side. But, in the grand scheme of things, a mere Mangekyo Sharingan will not let her reach the level of Sasuke Uchiha ever. This is why Sarada must go down the way that Sasuke did, and attain a Rinnegan.
Sarada’s Rinnegan Would Make Her Overpowered
Sarada Uchiha’s Rinnegan Could Awaken In The End
Sarada Uchiha is quite skilled already and fans know that at some point later down the line, she is going to get even stronger, especially if she awakens the Rinnegan. Fans might be wondering as to how Sarada Uchiha can awaken the Rinnegan. After all, to awaken this power, one must have the chakra of Indra and Asura. But, Sarada doesn’t need to worry about that at all. As fans know, Sarada has Sasuke’s chakra flowing through her veins. Sasuke already had the power of the Rinnegan, so it wouldn’t be too hard for one to imagine how Sarada will get the Rinnegan in the future.
If she does ever awaken the Rinnegan, Sarada will finally be able to compete on the highest level. She will gain access to the Six Paths Powers, and on top of that, she will also have access to a unique overpowered ability, just like Sasuke Uchiha had access to Amenotejikara. With all these powers up her sleeve, Sarada can comfortably take part in battle against the likes of the Otsutsuki, potentially even going on to defeat them.
With the enemies consistently growing stronger in Boruto, it is only a matter of time before Sarada will have no choice but to strive for greater power, and fans can only hope that Ikemoto doesn’t cast her aside as he did in the first part of the story. If Sarada is to ever become the Hokage, she must get the time she deserves, as well as attain abilities such as the Rinnegan. After all, she has to live up to the standards set by the Seventh Hokage and her idol, Naruto Uzumaki.
Boruto is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of Boruto, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 19, is set to be February 20, 2025.
