In Chapter 79 of the manga’s previous time skip, Kawaki’s resentment and frustration as Boruto’s adopted brother culminated in an involuntary wish, activating Eida’s Omnipotent power. and rewrite reality. In this new reality, Boruto and Kawaki have essentially swapped roles. Now Kawaki is Naruto’s beloved son and Boruto is the traitorous traitor. For all but a handful of characters who seem immune to the effects of the Almighty, this is not just a new reality, but one that has always existed.
The opening of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex attempts to explain the ramifications of the recent massive upheaval for the Boruto universe. As one of the few characters not affected by the Omnipotence, Sarada still believes that Boruto is innocent. She pleads Boruto’s case to the weak Eighth Hokage, Shikamaru, something readers should realize is meaningless since the effects of the Omnipotence have been in place for three years. However, the manga itself makes it clear exactly how Omnipotence works to rewrite Boruto’s reality, explaining why some characters like Sarada can remember previous realities.

In the simplest terms, the explanation is that Omnipotence does not come immediately. The new reality and the characters’ memories take time to take effect. Sarada explains that, initially, people are aware that the new reality is not entirely true and are at least subconsciously aware that things will be different. However, during the three-year timeskip before the start of Two Blue Vortex, the new reality continued to overwrite the old reality as the effects of the Omnipotent Power prevailed and the characters forgot the old reality and accepted the new ones. remaining errors and contradictions in the new reality, begin to believe that the new reality created by the Almighty remains the same.
As one of the few characters still aware of the old reality, Sarada spent the skip and early chapters of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex convincing the other characters of Boruto’s innocence and that there is something wrong. something is wrong with the new reality. Although Eida still believes that it is impossible to undo the Omnipotence and restore the previous reality, the explanation of events implies that the Omnipotence is not perfect or absolute after all. With Boruto returning and seemingly seeking revenge at the end of Chapter 1 of Two Blue Vortex, Sarada’s mission to restore her old reality becomes even more urgent.
By establishing the parameters of the ability, this explanation of Omnipotence helps close any plot holes leading up to the consequences of Omnipotence before they actually open up in the first place. Clarifying exactly how Eida’s Omnipotent power works also creates several possible paths for the characters to undo its effects. The consequences and potential plot holes caused by the Omnipotence along with Sarada’s efforts to undo them will clearly be a major aspect in the later chapters of the series.
