Meet The New Shinobi That’s Going To Steal Naruto’s Throne As The Strongest

by

This article contains spoilers from the Naruto series.

For a long time, Naruto Uzumaki was considered the most powerful ninja in the world created by Masashi Kishimoto. He overcame his biggest flaws and transformed them into strengths, ultimately becoming the Seventh Hokage. During his time as Hokage, he was widely recognized as the strongest ninja in the village.

A lot has changed since Naruto’s time. He’s not the same ninja he used to be, and has lost most of his power. A new generation of incredibly talented shinobi are emerging, and figures like his son, Boruto Uzumaki, are expected to surpass him. Many believe Boruto will eventually become the strongest ninja, even though it’s difficult for fans to imagine anyone replacing Naruto.

Boruto Uzumaki Is Coming For Naruto’s Throne As The Strongest

For a long time, Naruto Uzumaki was considered the most powerful ninja in the Naruto universe. He was incredibly resilient thanks to his Uzumaki clan heritage and the immense power of the Nine-Tailed Fox, making him nearly unbeatable. During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Naruto even achieved the legendary Six Paths Powers, elevating him to a god-like level. However, in the series Boruto, his abilities were diminished to make way for a new generation. The story now focuses on Boruto Uzumaki and his peers, shifting the spotlight away from the original heroes.

During the time jump in the Boruto series, Boruto Uzumaki has become significantly more powerful. In just a year, Sasuke Uchiha passed on all of his skills to Boruto, and he also received training from Kashin Koji, who taught him techniques from different timelines. Currently, Boruto is considered the strongest ninja, capable of competing with even Naruto Uzumaki. He’s expected to eventually surpass Naruto’s power due to his extraordinary potential.

Boruto Has The Power Of Momoshiki’s Karma

Boruto Uzumaki’s Karma mark, granted by Momoshiki, gives him access to all of Momoshiki’s skills, techniques, and even physical abilities. It’s like a powerful advantage in battle, and the more Boruto uses it, the stronger he becomes. Once he fully masters this power, combined with the skills he developed during his training, he’s likely to surpass even his father as the strongest ninja.

Boruto Will Surpass The Old Generation of Ninjas

Boruto Uzumaki trains under Sasuke Uchiha and is Naruto Uzumaki’s son. He’s destined to become even stronger than both of them, and it’s highly likely he will. While it’s become easier now that Naruto and Sasuke aren’t at their peak, Boruto was always going to exceed their abilities eventually.

Boruto Uzumaki is portrayed as an incredibly talented ninja who dedicates himself to protecting his village, even though he faces criticism and misunderstanding. He operates largely behind the scenes as a silent guardian, which naturally earns the audience’s empathy. Many viewers see parallels between Boruto and Itachi Uchiha, but believe Boruto has even greater potential. As he develops, he’s expected to become even more powerful than the previous generation of ninjas.

The next chapter of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, chapter 28, will be released on November 20, 2025, at 10 AM Eastern Time / 3 PM Coordinated Universal Time. Fans can read it for free on the Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
