Naruto Still Dominates: Ikemoto Confirms He’s Stronger Than Boruto!

This article contains spoilers from Boruto: Two Blue Vortex.

Summary

  • Boruto Uzumaki’s peak strength falls short of defeating Jura.
  • Naruto Uzumaki remains stronger, able to counter Boruto’s techniques.
  • Uzuhiko is ineffective against Naruto’s Six Paths Powers.

The latest chapter 22 of “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex” has just been released, and it’s safe to say that this month’s installment was nothing short of thrilling, despite seeming brief due to the abundance of action. Readers were treated to a long-awaited fight between Boruto Uzumaki and Jura, the mightiest of the Shinju. Through this battle, Ikemoto provided plenty of tantalizing revelations for “Boruto” enthusiasts.

Firstly, viewers were able to discern the fighting boundaries of Boruto Uzumaki. Simultaneously, they gained insight into Boruto’s talents, making it evident that despite losing Kurama, he is currently not as skilled as his father, Naruto Uzumaki, was before the same event occurred.

Boruto Uzumaki’s Peak Is Revealed

  • Boruto Uzumaki Could Fight Jura
  • Uzuhiko Is Boruto’s Strongest Technique

Boruto Uzumaki, as everyone knows, is an exceptionally powerful combatant. He honed his skills under Sasuke for roughly a year before delving deeper with Kashin Koji’s guidance. With Koji by his side, Boruto mastered numerous potent abilities and even crafted his unique rendition of the Flying Thunder God Technique. Yet, it’s clear that he doesn’t possess the strength to overcome Jura at this point, despite his immense power, without utilizing Karma.

Right now, Boruto Uzumaki will lose and he stands no chance. — Koji

In chapter 22 of “Boruto: Two Blue Vortex,” Boruto Uzumaki engaged in battle against Jura. It was plain to viewers that Boruto’s best efforts weren’t sufficient to win. In the end, Boruto resorted to using Uzuhiko, a move that seemed promising but ultimately didn’t work out. The way Uzuhiko failed reinforces the idea for fans that Naruto Uzumaki, with his Six Paths Powers, is significantly stronger than Boruto. This notion had been questioned by many fans, but with Boruto Uzumaki’s latest display, it has now become clear.

Naruto At His Full Power Is Still Stronger Than Boruto

Naruto Can Counter Uzuhiko Without Trouble

In a comparison between Boruto and Naruto, it’s essential to focus on their most powerful techniques. To some, Boruto Uzumaki’s strongest technique, known as Uzuhiko, might not be effective against Naruto. This was demonstrated in the narrative by Jura, who had insight into Uzuhiko and recognized its similarity to a Tailed Beast Ball. Given that they are alike in their creation process, Jura was able to nullify Uzuhiko. Essentially, when Kurama is with him, Naruto Uzumaki can readily suppress Uzuhiko. Even without Kurama, Naruto’s proficiency with the Rasengan makes him capable of countering Uzuhiko, given his status as one of the top Rasengan users globally.

Uzuhiko doesn’t work on him at all? — Boruto Uzumaki

Without Uzuhiko, Boruto lacks significant strength. Relative to Six Paths Sasuke, Boruto seems insignificant, and the might of Baryon Mode Naruto outshines him considerably. Though Naruto isn’t currently playing a prominent role in One Piece, fans anticipate that he will still prove formidable.

In case Naruto Uzumaki makes his comeback, it’s clear that he will be exceptionally potent, regardless of whether Kurama is by his side or not. At present, though, Naruto continues to reside within the dimension of Daikokuten, which essentially implies that fans must exercise patience until he reappears and has a substantial impact on the storyline once more.
