After the conclusion of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, manga enthusiasts eagerly anticipated the sequel manga, which was finally set to showcase the long-awaited timeskip hinted at by the series since 2016.
As the release date for the first chapter of the Two Blue Vortex manga approached, fans were left intrigued when the V Jump magazine cover for this chapter leaked online, revealing the protagonist’s updated timeskip design.
Fans examined the design with great interest, discovering numerous easter eggs. While some elements were addressed within the series, there was one significant reference that fans might have overlooked.

Boruto’s jacket in Two Blue Vortex features a “bolt”pin
The protagonist’s new character design in the Two Blue Vortex manga showcases various small ornaments. His necklace displays the Uzumaki crest, and his pins include a sun emblem alongside the Hidden Leaf Village crest. However, another pin on the jacket represents the “bolt”logo, which fans might have missed.
This pin, located beneath the sun crest, symbolizes the “bolt.”Fans will recall that during his academy days, Boruto’s jacket did not showcase the Uzumaki crest but rather featured a bolt emblem.
As any dedicated fan knows, the protagonist’s name, Boruto, is derived from the term “bolt,”a clever nod to his uncle Neji Hyuga’s name, which means “nut.”Consequently, Naruto named his son “Boruto”as a tribute to his wife Hinata Hyuga’s deceased cousin.
In his early years, Boruto wore a jacket adorned with a bolt symbol, representing his name and embodying a nostalgic connection to his childhood in Konoha.
However, the manga has yet to clarify the purpose of the pin on his jacket. Is it simply a cosmetic detail, or could it serve as a scientific ninja tool for Boruto’s convenience?
One might speculate that the pin acts as a scientific ninja tool, as indicated by flashbacks showing that Boruto did not wear such pins until he met his new mentor, Kashin Koji. Post their meeting, he began incorporating these pins into his attire.
Given that Boruto’s “Hidden Leaf Village”crest pin appears to function as a marker for the Flying Raijin Jutsu, it is plausible that the other pins have specific purposes as well. Fans may need to wait for further exploration in the manga to uncover more about these details.
