Masashi Kishimoto began publishing Naruto in 1999, 24 years ago, and hence a lot of water has gone under the bridge. The manga then evolved and evolved over time, bringing with it new characters and events, but also expanding, with anime, spin-offs, sequels and much more, which is the case now Climax with Boruto.
Boruto: Naruto Next Generations runs in both anime and manga formats and is maintained by Kishimoto himself. If the manga sees him writing, the anime devotes much more to filler arcs and other adjustments. like he’s doing with Sasuke Retsuden now, for example, a light novel starring Uchiha and his wife-to-be published a few years ago. And that’s exactly what we need to talk about, due to an alleged Sakura plot hole that surfaced during these episodes.
In the recent cliffhanger of the last episode, Sakura was in danger. However, many have wondered how this was possible given the properties of its yin seal. In fact, the woman followed in Tsunade’s footsteps and received her own version of the Seal of 100 Healings. Its power is extremely versatile and was used more than once by Sakura in battle, so how come it wasn’t activated on the occasion of the poisoning in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations? Obviously the answer is there.
As explained in the light novel Sasuke Retsuden, it is explained that this poison impedes the circulatory system of the chakra and causes depolarization and overload of the nervous system. The fact that Sakura cannot resist him means that this poison is only created in the region where these events are taking place and it is not a poison spread throughout the ninja world.
The situation then prevents Sakura from effectively healing herself and finding a solution to the toxin. Since the end of Sasuke Retsuden in the anime is in sight, there will be a resolution to the situation.
