This article contains spoilers from the Boruto series.
Masashi Kishimoto has carefully crafted the world of Naruto over the last few decades and he’s established it in such a way that it continues strongly with Boruto even today. Fans know very well that over the years, the world of ninja has changed drastically. Kishimoto has introduced some very powerful characters, and even the aliens such as the Otsutsuki have now been thrown into the mix.
With that said, the vast majority of the fans are still simply interested in seeing ninjas in the story. After all, that is the basis of the Naruto story, and that’s what fans will always care about. Even in Boruto, ninjas are a core part of everything that the story tries to convey. Fans have seen the rise and fall of a bunch of incredible ninjas in Boruto, and at the same time, Kishimoto and Ikemoto have also revealed who the strongest ninja in the history world is. To the surprise of no fan of the story, Naruto Uzumaki is the strongest ninja in the world of Naruto, and by far, according to Masashi Kishimoto himself.
Naruto Uzumaki Is The Strongest Ninja In The History Of The World
Naruto’s Baryon Mode Pushed Him Above Isshiki Otsutsuki
- Naruto has access to the chakra of all Tailed Beasts
- With Baryon Mode, Naruto reached a higher level
Fans know Naruto Uzumaki to be an incredibly powerful ninja the strength of whom cannot be matched easily in combat. Although Naruto started without any special powers, he eventually rose to the very top by conquering his biggest weaknesses with the support of those around him. Naruto turned his biggest weakness, the Nine Tails, into his biggest strength, and eventually, he earned the trust of all the Tailed Beasts as well. By the end of the main Naruto series, he had gained Six Paths Sage Mode, which made him one of the strongest ninjas to ever live, with the likes of Madara Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha being his only two rivals.

However, things changed drastically in Boruto and Naruto Uzumaki left everyone in the dust when he acquired the power of Baryon Mode. This form saw Naruto and Kurama use their chakra as raw materials to create a new form of energy so great that even Isshiki Otsutsuki was dwarfed in comparison. Naruto ended up becoming extremely powerful, so much so that he is easily the strongest ninja in the history of the world, and even a step above Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

Who Comes Close To Naruto As A Ninja?
Nobody Is On Naruto’s Level
At his peak with Baryon Mode, no ninja comes close to Naruto. Even Sasuke Uchiha, who is usually next to him in terms of power, is no match for him. Naruto, with access to Baryon Mode, was actually even stronger than Isshiki Otsutsuki, and that’s saying something. Kishimoto clearly confirmed to the fans that he was in a league of his own and that no other ninja ever came close to him.
Unfortunately, Naruto lost the power of Kurama after the fight against Isshiki Otsutsuki, which means he’s now nowhere near as strong. To make matters worse, he has been sealed away by Kawaki and his return doesn’t seem imminent. Hopefully, the strongest ninja in history can return and make his mark once again.
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 26 is set for its official release on September 20, 2025. The release time of the chapter is 10 AM EST/ 3 PM UTC. As always, fans can read the chapter officially for free on the Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump apps.
