Uzumaki Clan: The Ultimate Jinchuriki Powerhouse in Naruto!

by

Summary

  • Uzumaki have a greater life force perfect for Tailed Beasts.
  • Uzumaki clan known for their sealing jutsu proficiency.
  • Uzumaki Jinchuriki can survive Tailed Beast extraction.

In the realm of Naruto, I’ve witnessed that Tailed Beasts represent an unmatched source of raw chakra power. The ninja villages found a way to exploit this power by imprisoning these beasts within human hosts, effectively turning them into deadly weapons. Throughout the series, numerous characters known as Jinchuriki have been introduced, but only a select few have managed to forge a deep connection with their Tailed Beast. However, it’s the members of the Uzumaki Clan who have shown the greatest mastery over these powerful entities.

The nearly extinct Uzumaki Clan is renowned for their vast chakra stores and distinctive energy, which makes them both rare and feared. Their unique abilities make them ideal hosts for Tailed Beasts, often selecting Uzumaki Clan members as the recurring Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails.

The Uzumaki Clan Members Have a Greater Life Force

Uzumaki Are Known For Their Longevity and Life Force

To become a Jinchuriki, it’s crucial not just to be compatible with the Tailed Beast, but also to have a strong life force that can endure the heavy responsibility of housing one. Remarkably, members of the Uzumaki clan inherently possess a powerful life force and tend to live longer than most other clans.

Because they can endure the severe consequences of containing a full Tailed Beast within them, the Uzumaki are ideally suited for this role. Their vitality originates from their lineage, as they are related to Asura Otsutsuki, though not directly like the Senju. Instead, the Uzumaki are distantly connected to the Senju, which means their ancestry can also be traced back to Asura. Consequently, the Uzumaki clan shares a comparable potent life force with the Senju clan.

Proficiency in Sealing Techniques

The Uzumaki Were Feared For Their Fuinjutsu

In the Warring States era, the Uzumaki family was notoriously powerful due to their unmatched mastery of Sealing Techniques. However, this very strength proved to be their downfall when various nations joined forces to eradicate the Uzumaki clan completely, aiming to eliminate the danger posed by their Fuinjutsu.

In the heat of that battle, Lady Mito used a sealing technique to encase the Nine-Tails within herself, thus becoming its Jinchuriki to bolster Lord Hashirama who had already acquired it.

Or even more simply:

During that fight, Lady Mito sealed the Nine-Tails inside her using magic and took on the role of its host, giving strength to Lord Hashirama who had already obtained it.

Because Tailed Beasts are bound within their Jinchuriki using the same sealing methods, having an Uzumaki as a Jinchuriki would guarantee that the seal remains strong. Mito Uzumaki was the first Jinchuriki to host the Nine-Tails, and she secured Kurama within herself using one of her clan’s unique sealing practices.

As an avid fan, I can’t help but marvel at the mastery of potent sealing jutsus by the Uzumaki clan members, making them ideal Jinchuriki. However, Naruto breaks the mold, but Kushina, too, possessed a handful of these remarkable Uzumaki sealing techniques. Her prowess was evident in her use of the Adamantine Chains, a unique Uzumaki technique, which she employed to restrain both foes and Tailed Beasts alike.

Uzumaki Jinchuriki Can Survive Tailed Beast Extraction

The Uzumaki’s Life Force Allows Them to Survive Tailed Beast Removal

In the world of Naruto, it’s common knowledge that when a Tailed Beast is removed from a Jinchuriki’s body, they meet their end. This grim truth was underscored as the Akatsuki embarked on their mission to extract the Tailed Beasts, resulting in the untimely demise of every Jinchuriki. Yet, the Uzumaki stand apart from this normality, for there have been not one, but two instances where Uzumaki Jinchurikis have somehow survived the ordeal of tailed beast extraction.

During Naruto’s birth, Kushina Uzumaki miraculously survived the extraction of Kurama from her body, though she was left in a severely weakened and critical condition. She managed to hang on to life, narrowly avoiding death at that moment. However, her fate may have been different if not for the severe injuries she sustained. Similarly, Naruto managed to live despite the removal of Kurama from his body, although he too was left in a perilous state. Yet, he endured long enough for the Tailed Beast’s chakra to be restored within him once more.

It’s been noted that members of the Uzumaki clan can continue living even after the extraction of the Tailed Beast, thanks to a process where a tiny portion of the Tailed Beast’s chakra is returned to their body. This means they can survive and carry on as if they had never been Jinchuriki in the first place. So far, this unique ability has only been demonstrated by Uzumaki clan members, as no other Jinchuriki has managed to survive more than a brief moment after their Tailed Beast was removed.

Naruto is available to stream on Prime Video.
