Naruto’s Return Could Be Soon In Boruto

  • The Shinju Will Fall Soon In Boruto
  • Naruto Will Return After Boruto Vs Kawaki

It’s widely understood among Boruto fans that Naruto Uzumaki will make a comeback in the storyline. There are indications that this reappearance won’t happen before the Shinju falls or before the confrontation between Boruto and Kawaki takes place. The prologue of the story suggests that Naruto won’t return until after the Shinju event, while fans speculate that his absence continues due to the fact that Kawaki hints at sending Boruto to the same location where he sent Naruto, implying that Naruto is still there and sealed away.

Considering how rapidly the Shinju are diminishing, it seems almost certain that Naruto will reappear in no time. The Shinju’s existence within the story is expected to last only around 10-15 chapters, after which the fight between Boruto and Kawaki will ensue. At the very least, we can expect Naruto back within approximately 20 chapters.

Naruto Should Gain Access To Wood Release

The Basis Has Been Set By Kishimoto Himself

Upon Naruto Uzumaki’s return, he will find himself without the aid of Kurama, but fans are well-aware that this isn’t a limitation for long. Besides, Naruto possesses numerous other talents that he can and should utilize. One such ability is Wood Release, a formidable technique known for its immense power. Though it’s a Kekkei Genkai, meaning it cannot be learned, Naruto has an advantage – Hashirama cells – and proficiency in both Earth and Water Release. Indeed, Kishimoto has established the groundwork for Naruto Uzumaki to master Wood Release, suggesting that if Ikemoto so desires, Naruto can effortlessly wield this technique upon his return. Moreover, coupling Wood Release with Sage Mode could transform Naruto into an unstoppable force.

As an observer, I’d say it seems Naruto retains the chakra of the Tailed Beasts within him. Though Kurama may be gone, the other beasts remain, teasing a potential power-up that will make Naruto dependable again and deliver thrilling action for fans to enjoy. All we can do is eagerly anticipate his return, keeping our fingers crossed that Ikemoto remembers the powers he acquired during the original series.
