Naruto is back with a new manga, and Sasuke Retsuden pulled out all the stops for chapter one!
Naruto is back, and thanks to a special new release, all eyes are on the Uchiha family once again. While the main series continues its work on Boruto, Sasuke is leading his very own manga courtesy of Shonen Jump. After a long wait, Sasuke Retsuden has been turned into a manga, and its first chapter is available to read right now.
What Is Sasuke Retsuden?Of course, you might not even know what Sasuke Retsuden stands for. The series debuted back in August 2019 as a light novel. Series creator Masashi Kishimoto did the story's few illustrations while writer Jun Esaka penned the script. It didn't take long for fans to begin begging for more. And now, that dream has turned into a reality courtesy of Sasuke Retsuden's manga adaptation.
As for the story itself, it takes place several years after the end of Naruto: Shippuden. At this time, Naruto Uzumaki has become the Hokage while Sasuke continues his work outside of the Hidden Leaf as a sort of Shadow Hokage. When Naruto comes down with a terminal illness shared by the Sage of Six Paths, Sasuke is forced to journey across the world to find a cure, and it doesn't take long before Sakura joins in on the mission.
