Boruto: Naruto's Power-Up Has Already Been Confirmed

As a longtime fan of the Naruto universe, I eagerly anticipate the upcoming developments in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. With over two decades of following these characters, I can confidently say that their growth and evolution have always been a highlight for me. Now that Sasuke has seemingly surpassed Naruto in terms of strength during the time skip, it’s only natural for Naruto to find a way to catch up.


This article contains spoilers for the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex series.

Key Takeaways

  • Naruto is sealed by Kawaki, losing his power and leaving fans eagerly waiting for his return.
  • The Boruto manga hints at Naruto gaining major powers in the Two Blue Vortex arc.
  • Sasuke’s increased strength confirms Naruto will receive a power-up to maintain the balance.

The popular anime series “Boruto” shows no signs of slowing down, and fans eagerly anticipate the upcoming arc, which promises significant developments that will propel the narrative towards a long-awaited climax: the potential destruction of Konoha and the fated confrontation between Boruto and Kawaki. Most significantly, there’s mounting excitement among readers for the imminent return of Naruto Uzumaki, the current 7th Hokage, although it seems we might have to wait a while longer before he reemerges in the storyline.

In essence, Naruto has been locked away by Kawaki, and when he clashes with Boruto later on, Naruto remains enclosed. Fans have endured a prolonged period of anticipation for his comeback, but there’s also some encouraging news to share. The recent direction that the Boruto manga has taken hints at Naruto obtaining significant powers from the Two Blue Vortex in the near future.

Naruto’s Current Predicament In Boruto

  • Naruto Uzumaki is sealed by Kawaki
  • Naruto’s power has been stripped from him

In the popular series “Boruto”, it’s clear that Naruto Uzumaki endured a great deal of hardship. It’s not unexpected considering the way characters from the previous generation have been handled in this manga, which has sparked much debate among fans. Indeed, many Naruto enthusiasts have voiced their concerns about this aspect of “Boruto”, and rightfully so. For Naruto Uzumaki, he lost his long-time companion, Kurama, and was left powerless as a result. Later, he was sealed by Kawaki, effectively removing him from the storyline, which was undeniably saddening for fans. These challenges faced by Naruto in “Boruto” have undoubtedly caused frustration among viewers.

Back when Boruto kicked off, I was well aware that it was a continuation of Naruto. Naturally, Boruto took center stage in this new adventure, but what I didn’t anticipate was the world remaining the same one where Naruto thrived. He’s more than just a character; he’s an icon. Frankly, I never thought Naruto would be the main character or always leading the charge. But it was important to me that he had a role in the story and his accomplishments and power were treated with respect. His legacy should not be compromised in any way.

Regrettably, his return hasn’t occurred in the Boruto anime yet, which is why viewers eagerly anticipate it. This absence allows Naruto to lead a tranquil life and fulfill his dream of remaining the Hokage he strived to become.

Boruto: Naruto's Power-Up Has Already Been Confirmed

During a fierce encounter against Isshiki, Naruto Uzumaki relinquished the power of Kurama. Before the battle commenced, Naruto was resolved to give it his all. Employing a unique tactic, Naruto and Kurama converted their chakra into energy seeds, unleashing an unprecedented force. This energy overshadowed Isshiki significantly. In the end, Naruto emerged victorious over Isshiki, but this victory came at a tremendous cost: he was left powerless in subsequent storylines. Although Naruto retained the ability of Sage Mode, it wasn’t sufficient for the challenges ahead.

One reason Kawaki opted to conceal Naruto was due to the belief that his strength would wane, making it difficult for him to rule as Hokage or be an effective leader in the village. When Naruto eventually resurfaces, he’ll require a power boost. It’s unimaginable for Naruto to remain weak or a mere shadow of his past self, especially when crucial conflicts arise in the future. Fans anticipate Naruto’s active participation, given his significance, so it’s essential that he remains central. This is why, as Boruto unfolds, Naruto must acquire more power to ensure his continued relevance and readiness for any impending battles.

Fans have been curious about whether Naruto Uzumaki will increase his power or not. Fortunately, the Boruto manga has hinted that Naruto may indeed receive a power boost. This is suggested because Sasuke Uchiha, who Naruto considers both a brother and a rival, has become stronger since the time skip. During this period, while Naruto was sealed away, Sasuke trained with Naruto’s son, Boruto Uzumaki. Their battles during the time skip led to Sasuke reaching a higher level of strength. This was evident when Sasuke faced off against Code, whose physical limits had been removed. Despite this, Sasuke was able to engage effectively with Code and even inflict injuries on him, taking one of his eyes and leaving him severely weakened.

Despite struggling against Jigen earlier, even with his Rinnegan, Sasuke managed to hold his own against a crowd of Claw Grimes. Interestingly, he was able to inflict injuries on Code during their fight, demonstrating significant growth for him.

Previously, Kishimoto made clear that Naruto and Sasuke’s growth should always be parallel; if one becomes stronger, the other follows suit. However, when Naruto obtained Baryon Mode, Sasuke didn’t experience a power-up, but they both suffered similar setbacks, ensuring balance. As of now, that equilibrium has been disturbed, with Sasuke surpassing Naruto significantly in strength. Essentially, it seems almost certain that once Naruto reappears, he will find some way to catch up and match Sasuke’s power level.

How Will Naruto Gain A Power-Up?

Naruto Could Become A Jinchuriki Again

As a diehard Naruto fan, I’ve always wondered about how our beloved characters can amplify their powers. Many of us had hoped that Naruto would reconnect with Kurama, but now that it’s been passed onto Himawari, it seems like that dream won’t come true anymore. However, the young Ten-Tails is still out there, and maybe Naruto could become its new Jinchuriki. This would mirror Hagoromo’s deed of sealing the Ten-Tails within himself and saving the world. But if this scenario doesn’t play out, Naruto will have to innovate and find unique ways to enhance his Sage Mode, and much more.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but remind myself and fellow enthusiasts that our beloved Naruto is still quite young, which means he’s not yet reached the pinnacle of his potential. He’s destined to acquire new powers and become stronger, it’s just a matter of time. However, we must be patient as his return seems to be on the horizon but not immediately imminent.

You can easily access Boruto manga through Viz Media. Fans are able to read it officially and at no cost on the Shonen Jump and Manga Plus apps. The release date for the next chapter of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, chapter 17, is scheduled for December 20, 2024.
