Biography

Boruto Uzumaki (Japanese: うずまき ボルト, Hepburn: Uzumaki Boruto) was the blonde haired son of Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Uzumaki with him having a younger sister named Himawari Uzumaki. His parents remained in Konohagakure alongside their close childhood friends leading to Boruto knowing their respective children. One day, his father was set to be inaugurated as the Seventh Hokage of the village with the Uzumaki family ready to attend with him. During this time, his sister Himawari wanted to bring her panda toy with her to the ceremony but Boruto thought that he would end up carrying it the entire time. This led to him trying to take it away from her with the two fighting over it with the toy's head being ripped off in the tug-of-war between them. Seeing her toy broken, Himawari in anger manifested her Byakugan and attacked her brother who made multiple apologies to her with little success. Naruto could sense the killing intent in Himawari when he arrived at the scene and moved to protect him but was knocked out when one attack hit one of his chakra points. After seeing this, Boruto tried to run away from Himawari and hid in a closet but she easily found him and from that point onwards he vowed to never anger his sister again.

Sasuke, however, refused to take Boruto on as a student unless he learnt the Rasengan with the overconfident Boruto going forth to begin his training. This saw him going to his sensei Konohamaru in order to learn the jutsu.

Having won, he came to see his father approach him seemingly to congratulate him on his success. However, Naruto grabbed his son's arm and revealed that scientific ninja tool that was hidden there. This was a clear violation of the rules of the exam with Boruto feeling ashamed at having been caught cheating during the exam. With tears in his eyes, he blamed his Naruto for not being there in his life more and that if his father was there that maybe he would not have cheated.

Upon making eye contact with Garaga, he was drawn into the giant snake's memories which showed that in the past he had been betrayed by his shinobi summoner on a mission which left him with a wound on his eye. It was then that Garaga demanded to know why Boruto was seeking his reverse scale with Uzumaki stating that it was needed so he could find out what happened to his friend Mitsuki. Garaga was dismissive of Boruto's childish views and believed that Mitsuki had betrayed his friend as this was the way of the shinobi. After seeing Garaga's life, Boruto decided to prove the giant snake wrong and asked him to be Uzumaki's temporary summons so he could show that Mitsuki was innocent out in the world. However, he promised that if he was wrong and Mitsuki had indeed betrayed him and his friends then he would allow Garaga to consume him. The giant snake was amused at the deal and decided to accept it as he was confident that Boruto was wrong with the two making the temporary summoning contract. They then approached the White Snake Sage who was amused at Boruto's actions and decided to help uncover the memories within Mitsuki's snake. From there, they determined that Mitsuki had allowed the chunnin guard to live and that there were other people responsible for the attack at the gates of the hidden leaf village.

Overview

Personality and attributes

In appearance, Boruto Uzumaki was a young human male with spiky blonde hair, blue eyes and two whisker markings on his cheeks that made him resemble his father.

Initially, he had no issues with cheating as he believed the ultimate goal of a game or a fight was to win. This led to him initially being willing to cheat in order to win such as his use of a scientific ninja tool in the Chunnin Exams.

Boruto had said that he was determined in forging his own ninja way.

He said that as a man he could take being disappointed by his father for not being there for him. However, he did not want his younger sister Himawari to go through the same experience and thus did not want her to cry as a result. Boruto even said that he would fight with his father if he made his sister cry by not being there for her.

Boruto came to admire Sasuke Uchiha as he saw him as a shinobi that did whatever he wanted and did not do the boring duties of a Hokage. Thus, he was resolved in becoming more like him rather than his own father.

It was during his fathers fight against Momoshiki Otsutsuki that Boruto came to admire his father and understand the weight of the responsibilities on him along with the hardships he had experienced in his life.

Powers and abilities

As a shinobi, he came to learn to harness his chakra and could use it to perform a number of jutsu. The child of two strong bloodlines, Boruto was noted for being a prodigy where he was accomplish anything he attempted in a remarkably short period of time.

Among the techniques known to him included:

• Boruto Stream (ボルトストリーム­, Boruto Sutorīmu) : a technique using the wind release jutsu whereby others helped accelerate the movements of a person. Boruto often used his Shadow Clones to propel him forward and could also have his allies use the technique to increase their speed.
• Wind Release: Gale Palm (風遁・烈風掌­, Fūton: Reppūshō) : a wind release technique where they could either increase their velocity or compress wind into a powerful gale that could knock a person behind.
• Summoning Technique (口寄せの術­, Kuchiyose no Jutsu) : the ability to instantly summon and teleport an object to his location. On one occasion, he made a temporary contract with a giant snake named Garaga that he could summon out in the world.
• Shadow Clone Technique (影分身の術­, Kage Bunshin no Jutsu) : from a young age, Boruto could manifest the Shadow Clone jutsu where initially he could only produce 3 copes of himself and he had to have them in line of sight in order for them to work.
• Vanishing Rasengan (消える螺旋丸­, Kieru Rasengan) : a variation of the Rasengan that Boruto had created subconsciously when attempting to learn the technique. He changed the chakra nature creating a new jutsu by the addition of lightning style into it. This led to a Rasengan that formed and disappeared only to reappear just as it hit the target thus making it invisible mid-flight.
