Hagoromo Otsutsuki Is Naruto’s Strongest Figure
When it comes to Hagoromo Otsutsuki’s power, fans know he wields the legendary Rinnegan. He also possesses the Truth-Seeking Orbs and controls all natural transformations. Using Yin-Yang Release, he can create and breathe life into anything, essentially making him a god.
Hagoromo was strong enough to fight and seal Kaguya Otsutsuki even with help from his brother. Yet, that wasn’t his peak form. After becoming the Ten-Tails’ Jinchuriki, his power reached an entirely new level. At his prime, Hagoromo was definitely stronger than Kaguya and the most powerful being in the entire Naruto world.
Other Otsutsuki Clan Members Surpass Hagoromo
While Hagoromo is undoubtedly the strongest in Naruto, Boruto tells a different story. As seen, Isshiki Otsutsuki is the first major threat, clearly stronger than both Naruto and Sasuke combined. Considering these two each hold half of Hagoromo’s power, it’s fair to say Isshiki is either stronger or at least on par with Hagoromo, as both surpass Kaguya at her peak.
This also means another character holds potential beyond Hagoromo’s power: Naruto Uzumaki. With the strength of Baryon Mode, Naruto even outmatches Isshiki, showing he could surpass the Sage of Six Paths himself.
Shibai Otsutsuki Stands Above All in Boruto
All these characters are impressive, but the strongest in the entire Boruto series is Shibai Otsutsuki. He is the only Otsutsuki who truly became a god. Shibai even abandoned his mortal body and far exceeds Hagoromo’s level. Fans can hope to see more of Shibai in Boruto’s future, as he has the potential to be an outstanding villain.
Here’s what Ikemoto, the Boruto manga artist, shared about the series:
“I know Boruto started as Naruto’s sequel, but Naruto’s overwhelming presence made the journey challenging. Boruto has finally become a true protagonist. But can he match his father and become a hero? Or even surpass him? Honestly… I’m not sure what will happen. It depends on the readers’ support, so please keep cheering us on.”
