As a die-hard fan of Naruto and now Boruto, I must say that the journey of our young protagonist, Boruto Uzumaki, has been nothing short of extraordinary! The time skip years have undoubtedly seen him grow exponentially, but it’s safe to say that the credit for his current overpowered status goes to none other than Kashin Koji.

This article contains spoilers from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 13.

In the “Boruto” series, Boruto Uzumaki has developed into an extraordinarily powerful character, revealing his immense might mostly post the timeskip. His strength is such that only a few characters in the entire franchise can rival him. Remarkably, he’s capable of engaging in battles against the Otsutsuki clan, and this is no small feat.

Few characters can match Boruto’s skills, a fact that has left many fans in awe. Previously, much about his rapid development was unexplained, but now, the creator of Boruto has shed light on the matter, making everything seem clearer. Despite being already strong, Boruto’s progress over the past three years has been astonishingly fast, almost unbelievable to some. Now, with the author revealing the reasons behind his growth, it all makes sense.

Boruto’s Current Level Of Strength In The Story

Presently, it’s clear that Boruto Uzumaki is among the most powerful characters within the Naruto universe. Prior to the time-skip event, Boruto did demonstrate significant strength, but only when he accessed Momoshiki’s power. Without that, he wasn’t on par with the gods. However, following the time-skip, things have shifted quite dramatically. In just a year and a half, Boruto mastered most of Sasuke’s jutsu, giving him access to an impressive array of techniques. This development has certainly stirred excitement among fans. Yet, even though Boruto gained numerous powerful jutsu from Sasuke, it doesn’t fully account for his remarkable growth in strength, a trait he only recently displayed in the manga. He single-handedly defeated Code and took care of Kawaki. Since the time-skip, Boruto has been nearly invincible. When he reappeared after the time-skip, fans perceived him as easily handling Code, who seemed insignificant to him.

Kawaki was absolutely no match for him, and Boruto even threatened to kill him, which is absolutely bizarre, given that Kawaki is incredibly strong, and has gained total control over Isshiki’s powers. Furthermore, Boruto was even able to fight against the likes of the Shinju recently. He fought against Hidari in battle, and his strength wa such that he was completely dominant.. It was clear for the fans to see that Boruto Uzumaki is on a completely different level, and the fact is that he still has many incredible Jutsu that fans haven’t even seen.

When you train with someone as powerful as Sasuke, it’s likely that you might end up being overwhelmed. However, the truth is that Sasuke isn’t at a level where he can perform these feats. Boruto has surpassed Sasuke, which speaks volumes. Just by learning Sasuke’s techniques, Boruto wouldn’t have reached such a level. That’s where Kashin Koji comes in. In the anime “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex,” it was later revealed that Boruto and Kashin Koji were connected. They teamed up, and eventually, it was Koji who trained Boruto even more, pushing him to a very high level of strength in a short period. The three years skipped in the Boruto series saw Boruto reaching an almost unstoppable level of power.

Boruto Uzumaki’s Training With Sasuke Uchiha and Kashin Koji

Boruto Learned Multiple Jutsu From The Legendary Uchiha

As I ventured beyond the walls of Konoha, I sought guidance under the tutelage of my mentor, Sasuke. Yet, our training journey together was brief. Being a gifted ninja, I quickly grasped the fundamentals of Sasuke’s Jutsu. But let me be clear, my prowess pales in comparison to his might. Mastering even the basics was an accomplishment, and using them like Sasuke did was no easy feat. In just a year, such progress would have been unheard of, which is why there’s still plenty of room for Boruto Uzumaki to grow and reach new heights.

It’s undeniably true that fans are well aware that Boruto has made considerable progress during the time jump.

Following Sasuke’s selfless act of saving Boruto, he found himself eluding pursuing ninjas. It was during this escape that Kashin Koji made contact with him. By executing a Summoning Technique using his Scientific Ninja Tool, Koji formally introduced himself to Boruto Uzumaki. He subsequently unveiled his power of foresight to Boruto, which turned out to be a Shinjutsu originating from Shibai Otsutsuki.

Regarding Kashin Koji, just before his demise, he unlocked an extraordinary power, enabling him to break free from Isshiki’s grasp and save the planet. He made it clear that this power wasn’t potent enough to obliterate the Ten-Tails or any other entity. Nevertheless, it was powerful enough to predict upcoming events and avert disastrous consequences in various ways. Simultaneously, this technique allowed Kashin Koji to foresee the future for others, observe their alternate selves, and understand their abilities. By integrating these aspects into the user’s current form, he could aid in rapid growth.

Fundamentally, Boruto Uzumaki’s current excessive power can be attributed to Kashin Koji. The version of Boruto we see now combines the strength of Boruto Uzumaki from various timelines. This might seem puzzling to fans, but everything becomes clear when you consider the foresight ability that Koji has. In essence, Koji has the power to see into the future.

Although the future isn’t fixed, it continually transforms, implying that there are several iterations of Boruto Uzumaki in different futures. Each of these versions has unique Jutsus that others don’t possess. Similarly, each Boruto in the future possesses distinct abilities. However, if a future Boruto learns and utilizes a technique in the future, Kashin Koji can perceive it, understand how he mastered the jutsu, and pass on this knowledge to the current timeline’s Boruto Uzumaki. This Jutsu is then practiced by the present-day Boruto, making him exceptionally powerful. It’s through Kashin Koji’s influence and his training with Sasuke that Boruto has significantly boosted his strength, transforming him into the formidable figure he is today.

Absolutely, since Boruto hasn’t used his Karma abilities yet, there is certainly more power and growth in store for him. When he finally unleashes the potential of his Karma seal, fans can expect him to reach new heights of strength. We’ll just have to be patient and wait for that moment.

You can find Boruto chapters available through Viz Media. Fans are able to read it officially and at no cost on the Shonen Jump and Manga Plus applications. The upcoming Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 14 is scheduled for release on September 20, 2024.
