Chronology of the Kyubi's Reappearance

In chapter 9 of Boruto Two Blue Vortex, the scene begins with Team 10 Inoshikacho and Himawari facing Jura, an intruder.

In this scene, Jura reveals that he came to Konoha to meet Naruto because he felt the presence of the Kyubi in Konoha village.

Then Shikadai Inojin denied Naruto's existence in Konohagakure village and explained that Naruto had been missing since the incident three years ago.

However, Jura emphasized that the atmosphere of the Kyubi's current presence was centered on Himawari, who at that time was with Team 10 Inoshikacho.

For those of you who don't know Shinju Jura, he is a figure who is believed to be the reincarnation of Ishiki Otsutsuki and has strength beyond Sasuke.

As the reincarnation of Ishiki Otsutsuki, of course Shinju Jura holds a deep grudge against Naruto Uzumaki who defeated him in the last battle.

Pressured to face a very strong opponent, Team 10 finally decided to escape using Inojin's moves.

In the midst of their escape from Shinju Jura, Team 10 refused Himawari's request to hand them over to the enemy.

However, before Himawari had time to lower it, suddenly a small nine-tailed fox appeared in her subconscious mind that looked like Kurama.

At that moment, Kyubi was surprised by the success of Shinju Jura in detecting his presence in Himawari's body.

Possible moment that occurred in Chapter 9 Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is a reality. This means that the Kyubi has been reborn.

What makes the author believe that the little nine-tailed ferret is the Kyubi? Here's the explanation:

Biiju Never Die

This reason is not without basis, if we recall the moment of death Rin Nohara which at that time became Jinchuriki Isobu. Rin's death is not the reason for Isobu to leave forever.

In fact, Isobu returned to Kirigakure and lived in the body of Yagura, the Yondaime Mizukage. That means Kurama's departure after activating Naruto Baryon Mode not be the moment of his death.

Kurama's Last Words to Naruto

Naruto's farewell to Kurama at that time was in the fight with Isshiki Otsutsuki the question still remains. But there is a small leak that fans are aware of but also ignore.

During the final moment with Naruto, Kurama asked him to take good care of himself until then.

At that time, the words Kyubi had a double meaning, where there were some fans who thought that Naruto had to protect himself until the time of his death.

However, the Kyubi reappeared which communicated with Himawari's subconscious. The meaning of Kurama's last words at that time seemed to have been answered. That Kurama asked Naruto to take care of himself until the time came for him to rise again.

However, it cannot be confirmed that Himawari will be the next Jinchuriki of the Kyubi.

The reason is that if you look at previous events in the world of Naruto, someone who becomes a Jinchuriki must go through a sealing process first. Not based on the blood relationship between the Jinchuriki and someone.

If Kurama is still around, the potential character to become the next Jinchuriki is Himawari Uzumaki. Remembering that he is a descendant of Uzumaki who is blessed with a very large amount of chakra.

The appearance of the Kyubi in Chapter 9 shows that he was reborn in a small form like when he was first created by Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

Furthermore, this is reinforced when he addresses Himawari as “Little Girl”.

"Little girl, do you know me?" he said asking Himawari.

Himawari immediately answered by saying, "You're Kyubi, right?" he said.

That's the review regarding the reappearance of the Kyubi communicating with Himawari in chapter 9 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex.
