Boruto: Kishimoto Confirms Naruto’s Current Power Wouldn’t Survive Two Blue Vortex

This article contains spoilers from the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga.

In *Boruto: Two Blue Vortex*, Naruto isn’t shown at his peak. The creators, Kishimoto and Ikemoto, emphasize his weakened state and past glory, making him depend on the newer generation of ninjas from Konoha. This shift sees him mentoring Boruto, Sarada, and Himawari, a development that many dedicated fans find both expected and unsettling.

Despite everything, fans still want the original Naruto back, even with what the future holds in the *Boruto: Two Blue Vortex* manga. But bringing him back right now could be risky – his current power level makes him incredibly vulnerable. Facing enemies with godlike strength, his return could easily end badly.

A Look At How Weak Naruto Has Become

It’s heartbreaking to watch a hero fall, and that’s exactly what’s happening to Naruto Uzumaki. He once saved the world and inspired so many with his determination, defeating incredibly powerful foes alongside Sasuke Uchiha. Now, he’s a shadow of his former self – weakened and unable to defend Konoha from new threats.

Now that Naruto has been sealed in the Daikokuten dimension, it’s unclear what his current condition is. The last time we heard from him, he was frozen in time, unable to improve his skills, practice, or even be aware of what was happening to his village. Essentially, Naruto is now stuck and unable to progress, much like a non-playable character in a video game, while life continues without him.

It’s obvious that Naruto isn’t as strong as he used to be, particularly after losing Kurama. Although fans still discuss whether he can use Six Paths Sage Mode, his power has clearly decreased. This is similar to what happened to Sasuke, who lost his Rinnegan and was turned into a tree.

Naruto Wouldn’t Survive a Serious Battle Against Jura

Jura Wants Naruto Uzumaki Dead

Jura’s true abilities haven’t been fully shown yet, but his incredible strength – demonstrated in both Konoha and the Land of the Wind – suggests he’s currently the most powerful character in *Boruto: Two Blue Vortex*. He’s so dominant in battle that he might even be able to defeat the current Naruto Uzumaki.

Boruto Uzumaki recognizes just how powerful Jura is, and Kashin Koji has seen glimpses of the danger Jura poses. Boruto doesn’t stand a chance against Jura on his own—not right now. Even with his improved abilities, Boruto needs help from Kawaki and Momoshiki Otsutsuki to defeat Jura, hoping to stop him before he targets Naruto.

Jura is now focused on finding Naruto, leaving Boruto and his friends in a dangerous situation. Shikamaru and the others are working hard to avoid making Jura angry, because if they do, the results could be devastating. A single mistake could cause Jura to attack Konoha, destroying the village before Boruto has a chance to reunite with his father.

Naruto’s Time Will Come, But It’s Not Now

He Could Return Stronger Than Ever or Not at All

If the creators of *Boruto*, Kishimoto and Ikemoto, had intended to kill Naruto, they easily could have done so already. Instead, they sent him and Hinata to another dimension, which implies Naruto isn’t going to die yet. This delay is likely to build suspense and keep fans engaged, even though many are eager to see him return as the Seventh Hokage.

Naruto’s current absence is fueling speculation about how he’ll return, with many wondering if he’ll come back significantly more powerful, maybe with a brand new, incredibly strong ability that lets him compete with today’s villains and the rising new generation of ninjas. However, given that Naruto is currently sealed and unable to train, fans might want to temper their expectations about a quick power boost.
