Naruto and Sasuke are two very important characters and fans know that they hold legendary status even in Boruto.

Himawari has a lot of potential in Boruto. She might even surpass her father, Naruto Uzumaki.
However, with Two Blue Vortexes manga, new life has been breathed into the franchise, meaning fans are eagerly waiting to see what the series has in store for these two characters and how they can be fixed in the continuation of this incredible story. Although both Naruto and Sasuke aren't actively involved in the Boruto plot right now, the future could mean great things for them.
Naruto and Sasuke's fate in Boruto was cruel
- Naruto lost the power of Kurama vs Isshiki
- Sasuke's Rinnegan was stabbed by Momoshiki
In Boruto: Naruto Next Generation series, Naruto and Sasuke both met terrible fates. For example, Naruto Uzumaki, while starting out strong and fighting equally even against the likes of Momoshiki, was eventually powerless and imprisoned. Sasuke was also stripped of his powers and then turned into a tree. They were both embarrassed by characters like Jigen, though a large part of that was due to him absorbing power from the Ten-Tails to achieve this.
Be good, Naruto. And don't join me any time soon. – Kurama
When Jigen returned as Isshiki, he proved to be too powerful to match in battle, and the Seventh Hokage had to rely on the power of Baryon Mode to defeat him in battle. Unfortunately, this arc was devastating to both Naruto and Sasuke as they lost their greatest powers. For Naruto, Kurama abandoned him as he died in battle against Isshiki, leaving him weak and unable to fight the world's main enemies, while for Sasuke, his Rinnegan was removed from the equation, thanks to Momoshiki Otsutsuki. Both lost a significant portion of their powers in this arc and eventually went on to lose their abilities for good.
In the following arc, Naruto was sealed away by Kawaki, partly because he wanted Naruto to be safe from the threat of Otsutsuki, while Sasuke left Konoha to train Boruto. During the jump, Sasuke took care of Code, but the latter took care to turn into a tree, eliminating him from the story as well.
As is evident, both Naruto and Sasuke suffered a lot in the Boruto series, and fans certainly had a lot to say about it. In fact, even now, one of the biggest complaints fans of the Boruto series have is the treatment of legendary characters like Team 7. At the same time, the other supporting characters from the previous generation were also left out. . But, Two Blue Vortex seems to have considered all the issues with Naruto Next Generations and potentially worked on fixing all the bugs in it.
Why Two Blue Vortex Gives Fans Hope For Naruto And Sasuke
Boruto: Two blue vortex give attention to side characters
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex it means great things for Naruto and Sasuke, and that's largely due to the change in tone in the storytelling department. Although the series is still written by the same author, fans know that this manga is now taking a new turn. For example, the first part of the Boruto series never saw secondary characters involved in the plot. Of course, there were a few who were involved in the plot from time to time. But aside from Team 7, all the other supporting characters from both Boruto's and Naruto's generation weren't part of the series at all.
Girl, do you know who I am? – Kurama
However, Two Blue Vortex sees things change quite a bit. For example, fans have already seen the involvement of Team 10 in the Two Blue Vortex manga, which means that the author has at least considered that there are other characters that need attention. Even Himawari, who normally would never get any screen time, has now become a major player here. Even Team 10 was also focused on quite a lot, and people like Suna shinobi are also focused here and there. More recently, Shinki has seen some involvement in the story and the plot seems to be heading towards Sunagakure, which means they are keen to expand into Naruto's world more than ever before.

Boruto Uzumaki has grown tremendously in TBV. Is he stronger than his father, Naruto Uzumaki?
All of these areas are things that fans have had issues with in the past, which means that at least Two Blue Vortex is trying to fix everything that's wrong with the series and all the things that need more work in terms of this story .
This is exactly why fans are confident that once Naruto and Sasuke return, they will return them to their former glory without actively harming the next generation.
How to save Naruto and Sasuke in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex
Of course, fans might wonder how Naruto Sasuke can be redeemed in this Boruto sequel. First, they must be freed from their cages, meaning Naruto must be freed from Kawaki's dimension and Sasuke must be freed from the tree that contained him. Both of these things require certain plot points to occur. For example, in order for Sasuke to be freed, Hidari must be taken down and his Thorn Soul Bulb must be retrieved. Similarly, for Naruto to be freed, Boruto and Kawaki must fight and the latter must be defeated.
Once these things happen, these characters will return. And as soon as they return, they can be restored to their former glory. For example, Naruto Uzumaki can get time to become stronger and stay more relevant in the Boruto series by receiving power-ups. In Naruto's case, fans might even see him become the Jinchuriki of the Ten Tails or upgrade his Sage mode in some way to reach a higher level of power.
For Sasuke, fans can see him further strengthen his Sharingan or seek help from someone like Orochimaru to gain more power. It's also possible that Sasuke gets his second arm back and, in a surprising turn of events, regains his Rinnegan, causing Ada to use the power of Omnipotence to alter reality for always. All the cards are on the table and no matter how the author does it, fans know there is a good chance Naruto and Sasuke will return to their former glory in the next chapters of the story. I hope this is exactly what the author is planning.
