How come Boruto can only use 4 shadow clones while Naruto can do 1,000 and over?

Naruto is a Uzumaki while Boruto is a Uzumaki and Hyuga, how come Naruto even as a genin can do 1,000 shadow clones while Boruto max is 4?

Is it because Naruto is Kurama Jin who Bijuu chakra mixes with Naruto, while Boruto is only using his natural born chakra only and no other source?

Naruto has a unlimited source of free chakra inside him and Boruto doesn't? :sdo:

This, plus Naruto was half Uzumaki. Boruto is at best 25% Uzumaki.

But don't worry. You will get to see him spam more clones soon enough.

This because of his natural Uzumaki stamina which Boruto doesnt have. Remember that he used Kyuubi chakra first time only in the Land of Waves arc.

Without Kurama, Boruto's reserves still pale in comparison to Naruto's.

kyuubi doesnt boost his chakra when naruto isnt using it but he boosts his stamina regardless naruto should hsve a lot of stamina cos hes half uzumaki without kurama naaruto can still create a lot of clones but not as much plus he could use sage mode to boost his chakra too

In the databook is stated that the reason why naruto learned the shadow clones was thanks to his own chakra pool.

And in the forest of death right after orochimaru placed a seal on naruto that would prevent him from using kurama's chakra

he was still able to fight with his clones+tranformation jutsu for hours and even had kabuto saying he had an immense chakra and he would become a monster once he masters it.

So am not realy sure whats the problem with boruto since he should have 2 times bigger chakra poll then naruto because of his uzumaki+hyuga genes.

Because Naruto is Ashura's transmigrant and Kurama's chakra has been mixing with his since birth. So Kurama was the source of Naruto's stamina and a reason for his reserves.

Naruto's chakra has been mixing with the seal Minato created for him, which results in his overly large chakra pool.

Boruto doesn't reap those kind of benefits, so he can only utilize a limited number of clones. Which isn't a problem either.

Who wants to see Boruto use multi-kage bunshin?

Because Boruto isn't Naruto? I don't get the Naruto fanbase. If Boruto DOES do something Naruto did then he's a Nardo clone but if he doesn't then now he's a pathetic excuse for Naruto's son. Make up your minds. Do you want Naruto 2.0 or Not?

Boruto is his own character. I actually like that he can't do all the things Naruto did because it's separates him from the box the fandom keeps trying to put him in.

Lol, but he will use it :D I'm 99% sure. Just you wait.

If im not mistaken I thought Kakashi used a normal Clone technique to bluff them but called it Kage Bunshin. Clone Technique requires little chakra and its just an image with no aiblity to attack. Hence the "Kakashi version"

@Bold: What?

@OP

Its not just about how much chakra its chakra control as well. Naruto's chakra control was trash back then so its hard to say how much was the kyuubi outside of the 1000 kage bunshin which was obviously kyuubis. Boruto being a Hyuga should naturally have better chakra control than naruto so its no surprise he can make 4 clones especially having Naruto's genes
