The ongoing Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga continues the series' storyline, bringing back the characters after a four-year timeskip. Fans were saddened by the possible loss of Sasuke Uchiha, who was turned into a Divine Tree by Claw Grimes in the fourth chapter. However, spoilers for the upcoming fifth chapter reveal the events leading up to Sasuke's transformation, including poignant moments with Boruto and his final words, reminiscent of Itachi Uchiha's words to Naruto Uzumaki in Naruto: Shippuden.
Sasuke's final words to Boruto remind fans of Itachi's words to Naruto
While Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 5 is not yet released, spoilers for the upcoming chapter have already surfaced online. The spoilers give readers a glimpse of Sasuke's training of the Seventh Hokage's son, claiming to have taught him everything he could in a year. Later in the chapter, a fierce battle between Boruto, Sasuke, and Code and his Claw Grimes unfolds. Despite delivering significant damage to Code, Sasuke instructs Boruto to run and survive, and entrusts him with Sarada before making a heroic sacrifice. This act of trust and faith shows Sasuke's confidence in Boruto as he hands over the responsibility of his daughter.
Sasuke's parting words struck a chord with readers, evoking memories of Itachi Uchiha's impactful speech to Naruto Uzumaki in the Naruto: Shippuden series. Despite their limited interaction, Itachi understood the depth of Sasuke's bond with Naruto. In fact, Naruto once asserted that he considered Sasuke more of a brother than Itachi did.
As a result, Itachi entrusted Naruto with the task of taking care of his brother after he passed away. One of the most unforgettable moments in the series is when Itachi told Naruto, "I leave Sasuke to you."
When Sasuke said these words to Boruto, fans were reminded of the similarities between the two moments. It not only served as a reminder of how Sasuke's story has come full circle in the series, but also as a 'passing the torch' moment to Naruto's son, who has shown remarkable character growth throughout the series.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan of the Naruto series, I was deeply moved by Sasuke's final plea to Boruto in the latest Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga chapter. The parallels between Sasuke's words and Itachi's last words to Naruto were striking and brought back a flood of emotions from the original series. It's clear that Sasuke has come full circle in his journey, and I'm excited to see how Boruto will carry on his legacy.
Sasuke's sacrifice was a powerful moment that showcased his unwavering trust in Boruto. Despite their differences, Sasuke recognized Boruto's potential and entrusted him with the responsibility of protecting Sarada. This moment not only highlighted the growth of Sasuke's character but also emphasized the importance of passing on the torch to the next generation.
