The Battle Situation: Konoha on the Edge of Collapse
The chapter starts with Konoha in complete chaos. Mamushi, one of the Shinju clones, uses a frightening ability to create over 1,000 copies of himself. Each clone keeps the same strength as the original. The village defenders are exhausted and overwhelmed. Sarada Uchiha lies on the ground with serious injuries. Her Mangekyo Sharingan gave out after she used her Ohirume technique to try and stop the invasion. The effort failed and damaged her eye badly. Blood streams from it as she struggles to stay conscious.
Kawaki is also down, completely drained of energy. Boruto Uzumaki holds Sarada, trying to protect her while figuring out the next move. Mitsuki enters Sage Mode to fight harder. Konohamaru fights alongside him. Himawari Uzumaki activates her Kurama Mode and engages multiple Mamushi clones to buy time for the others. Daemon fights fiercely to protect his sister Eida, but even his Reflection ability has limits. The sheer number of enemies wears him down.
Kashin Koji’s Knowledge and the Hidden Solution
Kashin Koji watches the battle unfold. His prescience ability lets him see possible futures, but constant changes in the timeline make his information less reliable. He tells Inojin Yamanaka that the last future he saw was four days ago. In that vision, Koji explained the Mind Transfer Jutsu to Inojin. He also shares that Amado once proposed a theory about the Mamushi clones sharing a single collective consciousness. All the clones operate as one mind. This becomes the key to winning.
Koji warns Inojin that knowing the future can destroy it. He does not give Inojin the full answer. Instead, he pushes the young ninja to figure things out on his own. Inojin remembers Amado’s words slowly. He starts connecting the dots. The Mamushi clones are not separate enemies. They are all linked. If someone can control one clone, they control all of them.
Inojin’s Brave Plan and Execution
Inojin cancels his Mental Transmission Formation, shocking Shikamaru who does not understand why. A mysterious frog appears on the battlefield. Inojin steps into a reverse summoning circle and meets with Koji privately. Koji offers a silent prayer for Inojin’s success. Then Inojin returns to the battlefield. He apologizes to Himawari for leaving her and the others to fight alone. He calls Shikadai and gives a clear order: paralyze just one Mamushi clone. Shikadai trusts his friend and does exactly that.
With one clone frozen, Inojin forms the hand signs. He uses his Mind Transfer Jutsu on that single clone. Because all Mamushi clones share one collective consciousness, Inojin takes control of every single clone at the same time. The battlefield changes in an instant. Thousands of clones stop attacking and start moving in strange, uncoordinated ways. The plan works perfectly.
The Cost of Victory: Inojin Loses His Sight
To destroy the Mamushi clones for good, Inojin needs to take away their ability to see. He directs his rage at Daemon, whose Reflection ability turns attacks back on the attacker. Inojin forces the clones under his control to target their own eyes. Daemon’s power reflects the damage. All the Mamushi clones have their Rinnegan destroyed. Without their eyes, they cannot multiply or fight. The clones disintegrate one by one. The invasion ends.
But the reflection hits Inojin too. Both of his eyes explode from the backlash. He falls to the ground, screaming in pain. Himawari rushes to his side and uses her healing powers to stop the bleeding. She repairs some of the damage to his blood vessels. However, the true extent of the injury remains unknown. Inojin may be blind permanently. The chapter does not confirm if he will ever see again.
Other Losses: Sarada’s Eye Damage and Daemon’s Limits
Sarada Uchiha also suffers serious consequences. Her Mangekyo Sharingan took too much strain during the fight. Using the Ohirume technique pushed her eyes past their limit. Himawari stopped the bleeding from Sarada’s eye, but the long-term damage is unclear. No Uchiha in the series has ever had an eye explode from overuse before. Fans are worried about whether Sarada will keep her eyesight or need a transplant like her father Sasuke.
Daemon shows his limits for the first time. The endless waves of Mamushi clones overwhelmed even his godlike abilities. He breathes heavily and struggles to keep fighting. This proves that even the strongest characters have weaknesses when faced with unlimited numbers. Eida spends most of the battle in danger, with Boruto saving her multiple times.
Code’s Return at the End of Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 33
The final pages of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 33 bring back a familiar face. Code appears at the remains of the battlefield. He has only one arm left. The villain looks at the Thorn Soul Bulb left behind after Mamushi’s defeat. His intentions are unclear, but his return signals more trouble for Konoha. Code has been a punching bag for much of the series, but this comeback might change his role. Fans are watching closely to see what he does next.
Fan Reactions to Chapter 33
Social media exploded after the chapter dropped. Fans praise Inojin for his bravery and intelligence. Many did not expect him to be the hero of this arc. One reader wrote, “Inojin just became my favorite character. That was the smartest move in the whole series.” Another fan said, “I can’t believe they made him blind. That’s so cruel but so good for the story.”
Others worry about Sarada and what her eye damage means for her future as a fighter. A fan posted, “If Sarada loses her eyesight too, the whole next generation is blind. What is Kishimoto thinking?” Some readers criticize Kashin Koji for pushing Inojin into such a dangerous move without warning him fully. One comment stated, “Koji knew this would happen and still let Inojin do it. That’s cold.”
“Inojin took control of every single Mamushi at once. That is the most underrated moment in Boruto history.” – Fan on social media
What the Chapter Means for the Story
The end of the Mamushi arc changes the balance of power in Konoha. The village won, but the cost is huge. Two of its youngest and most promising ninjas may have lost their eyesight. Inojin proved that the next generation has what it takes to protect the village, but his sacrifice raises questions about whether the heroes can keep paying such high prices.

Boruto carried the team as the leader, but even he could not prevent the injuries. Kashin Koji’s role becomes more complicated. He sees possible futures but chooses not to change them. His actions suggest he believes some sacrifices are necessary for the greater good. This makes him a gray character that fans are still figuring out.
Himawari continues to grow as a healer and fighter. Her Kurama Mode and healing abilities saved both Sarada and Inojin from bleeding out. She is becoming one of the most valuable members of the team.
Code’s return at the end sets up the next arc. The Thorn Soul Bulb he picks up could give him new power. Fans remember that Code still wants revenge on Boruto and Kawaki. His comeback will likely bring more fighting very soon.
