Boruto Two Blue Vortex has been steadily building toward a major clash of emotions, loyalties, and philosophies, and Chapter 26 may be the most dangerous turning point yet. While fans expected the spotlight to remain on Boruto’s strategic recruitment of Inojin or the looming political crisis in Konoha, the manga pulled the rug out from under us by shifting to one of the most precarious subplots: Sarada and Sumire’s delicate deception of Eida.
For chapters, these two have hidden the truth that they alone remain unaffected by Eida’s omnipotent charm, but now that façade has cracked. The question burning in every fan’s mind is simple: Are Sarada and Sumire in immediate danger after their lie was caught, and what does this mean for the future of Konoha’s strongest next-generation kunoichi?

Eida’s Senrigan-based enchantment in Boruto Two Blue Vortex enthralled nearly the entire shinobi world, rewriting perceptions and flipping Boruto’s reputation from hero to criminal. But by some mysterious twist of fate, or perhaps intention, Sarada and Sumire were immune.
This immunity made them invaluable. They could see Boruto’s innocence while the rest of the world condemned him. But immunity also made them dangerous. If Eida were to discover that her “perfect charm” didn’t work on them, her fragile ego and unstable emotional state could spiral into paranoia.
That paranoia would, inevitably, summon Daemon, her younger brother and bodyguard, whose power makes even the most seasoned shinobi hesitate. Shikamaru had warned Sarada and Sumire explicitly. Their safety depended on playing along, keeping their heads down, and feigning enchantment like everyone else. But in Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 26, that secret crumbled.
How did Eida expose them?

In Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 26, the confrontation begins innocently enough. Eida, in her usual curious and insecure way, prods Sarada and Sumire about love. She wants to know when they plan to confess to Boruto. Sarada demurs, saying the timing isn’t right. Sumire, more straightforward, admits that she might confess when the moment feels right, but emphasizes that Boruto’s feelings matter more than hers.
At first, this exchange seems like harmless gossip, another example of Eida’s obsession with romance as a way to validate her humanity. But then Eida pivots. With an almost playful cruelty, she asks again:
“You’re not enchanted by me, right?”
This single question is devastating. Sarada and Sumire freeze. Their awkward silence speaks louder than words, confirming exactly what they had tried to hide. Eida doesn’t need a direct answer; her intuition and Daemon’s suspicion fill in the blanks. For Sarada and Sumire in Boruto Two Blue Vortex, this is the nightmare scenario Shikamaru warned about.
Daemon’s deadly intervention

Once the lie is exposed in Boruto Two Blue Vortex Chapter 26, Daemon moves instantly. Unlike Eida, who still clings to her desire for companionship, Daemon has no patience for perceived threats. His loyalty to his sister is absolute, and his violent instincts are unchecked.
In a flash, Daemon blitzes the girls, his speed so overwhelming that Sarada has no choice but to activate her Mangekyo Sharingan. Yet even this legendary dojutsu feels like a paper shield before him. Daemon grabs both by the throat, immobilizing them. His chilling words seal the moment:
“What good is your legendary Mangekyo Sharingan if I crush you before you can even use it?”
This isn’t just intimidation; it is a reminder of how helpless even the strongest next-gen shinobi are in the face of Daemon’s reflection-based ability. Physical contact makes him untouchable; any attack will only rebound on the attacker. Unless Sarada or Sumire discovers a loophole, they are lambs before the wolf.
Are Sarada and Sumire really in danger in Boruto Two Blue Vortex?

The short answer: Yes, absolutely. But the long answer is more complicated. Narratively, it is unlikely that Kishimoto will kill off Sarada or Sumire this early in Boruto Two Blue Vortex. Both characters hold too much long-term significance.
Sarada is positioned as Boruto’s closest ally and future Hokage candidate, while Sumire has long been tied to Amado’s secrets, Boruto’s emotional journey, and even the future of the Konoha scientific division. Their deaths would be premature.
However, the threat is very real. Daemon’s grip symbolizes the fragility of their situation. Even if he doesn’t kill them outright, he could maim them, humiliate them, or simply prove that their powers mean nothing before his. This encounter is less about whether they survive and more about whether they can escape without irreparably damaging their standing with Eida and Daemon.
