Is Shinju Jura Stronger Than Naruto Uzumaki? Boruto Powerscaling Explained

This article contains spoilers from the Boruto series.

The Boruto series has introduced the fans to quite a lot of powerful characters, and out of them all, the strongest of the bunch is certainly Jura. Fans know Jura to be a powerful Shinju with an extremely high level of strength. He has not been seen going all out just yet, which raises a few questions about his overall level compared to other powerful villains in Boruto. Above all, fans often wonder how strong Jura is compared to the peak of Naruto Uzumaki, the strongest Shinobi to ever exist.

After 11 Years, A Legendary Ninja Is Set To Finally Return In Boruto

Boruto is set to bring back one of its most iconic characters, and he will play a huge role in the story.

As fans know, Naruto had access to Six Paths Powers, and that made him incredibly powerful. At his peak, Naruto could even use the ability of Baryon Mode, and that made him a completely different monster. However, even this form of Naruto wouldn’t be able to win against Jura, because he is simply that powerful.

Jura Is Far Stronger Than Naruto Uzumaki In Boruto

As far as the strength of Jura goes, the story has made it absolutely clear that he is the most dangerous of all the Shinju. In fact, his threat is portrayed to be far greater than anything that the fans have seen in the story before. While the other Shinju are created from the chakra of humans, such as Sasuke, Jura is different. This is because Jura is directly created from the essence of the Ten-Tails. In other words, he’s the incarnation of the Ten-Tails itself, and that is what makes him very special. This also makes Jura the strongest of all the Shinju that fans have seen in the story.

The chances of beating him are lower than one in a million. — Kashin Koji to Boruto

Jura Is Almost Impossible To Kill

Most recently, Jura’s capabilities were seen in combat against the likes of Himawari, and later down the line, even Boruto and Kawaki. The fight against Kawaki was particularly impressive. It is because in this fight, it was essentially confirmed to the fans that Jura was unkillable. Even Amado later confirmed that with the power of the Ten Tails and the regeneration that he possesses, it is almost impossible to kill him, and even if Kawaki is pushed beyond his limits, with all the powers of Isshiki, he cannot kill Jura.

It’s Real: Kishimoto Confirms The Death Of One Of The Uzumaki Family In Boruto

Fans were shocked by Kishimoto’s death of an Uzumaki in Boruto.

In other words, Naruto Uzumaki is no match for Jura in the story. In Six Paths form, Naruto probably can’t damage Jura seriously. Of course, he would still be able to land powerful hits on him, but he would not be able to beat him in combat. Naruto would most certainly need Baryon Mode to go up against him, but the issue for him is that he cannot maintain this power for long.

As it is, I think it is effectively impossible to defeat him. — Amado on Jura

He can certainly do damage to Jura in this form and shave away a significant portion of his chakra. However, the Naruto series made it quite clear that the Ten Tails has an almost immeasurable amount of chakra because it is almost similar to natural energy. In that sense, no matter how much chakra Naruto shaves from him, he would not be able to win this battle.

Jura Is The Strongest Villain In The Story So Far

Even though the series has introduced the fans to the likes of Isshiki Otsutsuki, Jura is still portrayed to be stronger. This became clear when Kashin Koji himself believed that they had a chance to beat Isshiki Otsutsuki if everything went according to plan.

On the other hand, he believes beating Jura is essentially impossible, and that is after gaining Prescience. He describes defeating Jura as an impossible event, and he thinks there’s less than a one in a million chance of his defeat. It is quite clearly shown in the story that Jura is stronger than Isshiki, which means he’s far stronger than Naruto’s Baryon Mode as well.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex’s chapter 29 is set for its official release on December 18, 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.
