The questions of Boruto using scientific ninja tool.

[Glad Of War]

This is something that has a lot of people torn. Did Boruto really cheat? I mean, from a different point of view Boruto's disposition to use the scientific tools isn't cheating since it has been a kind of motto for ninjas to use whatever means to win. Why is Boruto's case different? Am well aware using scientific ninja tool was barred from the exams, but doesn't it contradict the whole ninja way of battling?

Another argument that arises is that scientific ninja tool is based on an external source of power. I don't think this should be the main point of concern. I think what should be considerate is the way it is used, which requires more skills than alleged. Simply put, the practical use of scientific ninja tools in battles needs to be on a competent level before it can be used successfully. Not every one would had been able to use the tools the way Boruto did, especially normal humans, so Boruto needs to be credited in that aspect.

Furthermore, Naruto should have ignored Boruto owing to the fact Boruto was able to use it without revealing too much. Part of a ninja training is to be able conceal yourself, and that extends to weaponry which Boruto essentially did.

What do you think?

The usage was prohibited. Boruto still used it. That's literally the definition of cheating.

Was actually shown?
I'm not sure, unless I missed it.

Anyway, cheating is considered legitimate method of winning as per ninja principles. That is of course if you don't get caught.

[Chikombo]

If it had been a battle like during the warring state eras then it would have been fine.

No cheating is permissible if not an exam. This exam was to test a ninja's individual talents hence the prohibition of ninja tech.

 

[Rikudou Tobi]

It's cheating because I think it's prohibited @Solidus said and the exam requires you to use your chakra and your stamina. Using that ninja tool that doesn't use your chakra and your ninjutsu is clearly cheating. Even the shuriken wouldn't of been considered cheating if the ninja tech thing didn't accelerate the speed of the shuriken for Boruto. That requiring no skill/movement to curve the shuriken at all.

He cheated

I'm well aware.
But was Naruto actually shown stating it was not permitted?

Yes that's why Boruto was disqualified against Shikidai.

Can you give me scans depicting his statements?
It's for future purposes.

 

[InfiniteMugen]

Ninjas are usually encourage to cheat using their own power in unique ways. With this everyone would be able to do the same thing and not really have to solve it in their own way. I completely agree he should of been disqualified. That being said I’m not against ninjas using them in actual combat in the field. They’re genius from a military aspect.
