Say Hello To Naruto Uzumaki’s Next Secret Weapon After Kurama In Boruto

by

This article contains spoilers from the Boruto series.

Naruto Uzumaki is a hugely popular character, and even in the sequel series, Boruto, he remains central to the story. However, Boruto has divided fans regarding how Naruto is portrayed. Some viewers are willing to overlook the changes, while others believe the author could have developed his character more effectively.

In the Boruto series, Naruto lost his powerful ally, Kurama, a change many fans dislike. However, this won’t be permanent. The story needs to evolve, and it looks like the creators, Masashi Kishimoto and Mikio Ikemoto, are already preparing Naruto’s next major power source. All signs point to Jura, who appears to be intensely focused on Naruto, as that new source of strength.

Naruto Uzumaki Could Gain Jura’s Powers After Kurama In Boruto

In the Boruto series, Naruto Uzumaki used to have immense power because he was connected to the spirit of Kurama, a powerful beast. However, during the fight with Isshiki, Naruto lost this connection, and with it, his greatest strength. Losing Kurama was a huge blow to Naruto, as it left him significantly weaker and unable to effectively fight powerful enemies like the Otsutsuki clan. This is ultimately why Kawaki had to seal Naruto away.

Jura believes love is a strange thing for humans. He sees it as a potential weakness, almost a mistake that comes with being so smart. But surprisingly, he also thinks it actually makes people more powerful. — Jura to Boruto Uzumaki, Two Blue Vortex

The Boruto series presents a challenge: Naruto needs to regain his strength, and many thought achieving this would involve reconnecting with Kurama, the Nine-Tailed Beast. However, Kurama’s power has now been transferred to Himawari, making that impossible. This shift unexpectedly focuses attention on Jura and his potential role in Naruto’s future power-up.

As many Naruto fans are aware, Jura is essentially the physical form of the Ten Tails. This means Jura possesses the immense power of the Ten Tails in a human body. He’s incredibly strong, far beyond what ordinary fighters can handle. Even powerful characters like Boruto Uzumaki and Kawaki wouldn’t be able to defeat him in a fight.

Amado stated that Jura has an extremely low chance of dying in battle – essentially, he’s nearly invincible. However, Jura is driven by a fascination with Naruto Uzumaki, and this could be his weakness. Jura knows Naruto is alive and sealed away, and he hopes to meet him to understand the nature of love. This desire is the reason behind the idea of Naruto potentially gaining Jura’s powers, and it explains why that possibility exists.

Jura Is A Juvenile Ten-Tails And Can’t Be Killed

It’s important to remember that Jura is a young Tailed Beast who appears as a human, and he’s completely immortal. This aligns with the nature of Tailed Beasts in general – they can’t truly die. All nine Tailed Beasts in the Naruto universe are essentially unkillable; if their bodies are destroyed, they’ll be reborn somewhere else under unpredictable conditions.

Like many of the powerful beasts in Naruto, the Ten-Tails couldn’t be truly destroyed. That’s why Hagoromo became its host instead of trying to kill it. Even during the Fourth Great Ninja War, it proved indestructible. Ultimately, it wasn’t the Ten-Tails that was defeated, but rather Kaguya Otsutsuki who was sealed away.

This world is my cherished creation, and I won’t let you destroy it any further. I’m ending your existence now. All energy belongs to me! I will reunite all energy into one. Hagoromo and Hamura, you have betrayed me. I will take back what is rightfully mine. — Kaguya Otsutsuki, Naruto

It’s obvious that Jura can’t truly die in Boruto because he is the Ten Tails. The only way to stop him permanently would be to seal him away, and bringing Naruto back to do that would be the ideal solution.

Naruto Could Accept Jura After His Return

Jura’s containment needs to be different from other characters; he shouldn’t be forcibly sealed inside Naruto against his will. Naruto wouldn’t resort to such tactics, and fans know he’d instead try to reason with Jura and gain his trust through understanding.

A captivating storyline involving Naruto Uzumaki could result in Jura combining his power with Naruto’s, finally resolving Jura’s character arc. Additionally, Naruto would obtain a new ability following the loss of Kurama.

This scenario would be a win-win for the Jura storyline, allowing fans to see their beloved Uzumaki character return, stronger than ever.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex is the continuation of the Boruto story, created by Mikio Ikemoto and with supervision from Masashi Kishimoto. The series picks up three years after the events of the Omnipotence arc, following Boruto Uzumaki as he tries to protect the world and navigate his relationship with his brother, Kawaki. Chapter 29 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex will be released on December 18, 2025, at 10 AM EST / 3 PM UTC. Fans can read it for free on the Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps.
