I'm sure most of us have read the novel chapter 1 already right?



^This person saw the movie as well. Here's the video of the scene, I found it ~

So basically, people thought that anyone could use certain ninja techniques if they had the Kote (Device name) but that's not right. In the movie Konohamaru says that Shikamaru's shadow possession technique was placed into the scroll, which is why he's able to use it. Konohamaru later puts his Rasengan into the scrolls and shows himself firing it like a gun, which solidifies this point.

When Boruto cheats with it; He uses shadow clones against Shikidai (he uses many scrolls - Let's say about 5-6 for the shadow clones). Boruto can only create three clones, later after training he made four. Each scroll contained about 3 shadow clones from Boruto, so all together he would have 15.

Boruto uses Raiton and Suiton release in the movie, at the same time Boruto states that he an use these elements even before having the device.

So, it looks the elemental jutsus he sealed were his own and their level are the same of the person sealed them.


Right now I'm awaiting confirmation from that scene via my source who saw the movie, which I will provide screen shots (the scene where Boruto said he can use these elements). Either way the Kote device works the same as I explained. If no one placed their techniques into Boruto's scrolls, then it looks like he's capable of using them.

Note; In before someone asks, if he can do these techniques, why does he cheat? He didn't fight in the Chunin Exams while using the device because he's not capable. He's been a cheater from the beginning, which is clear when he uses cheat codes to play video games (Katasuke and Boruto have a relationship where he gives Boruto game data, as shown as he leaves the hokage office and Katasuke tries to lure him into using the device for the exams).

He's lazy, he looks for shorcuts, and he doesn't try hard or train. But when he puts his mind into doing something, he's capable. This sets him apart from his father, and most natural born geniuses. The kid placed his own shadow clone technique in the scrolls as well, that should be clear to you how lazy he is.

My source confirmed it.

So Boruto cheats because he is lazy, even though he is smart. I... can actually relate to that :sweat:

It's more than that too, but essentially yes. His situation is relatable to the children of this generation who were born with gadgets (and us 90s kids who are growing up with them)

He had a certain misconception that Premium Members are immune to the mod's banhammer. :lol After seeing you get repeatedly banned cause you are a Premium member and not a troll (Cause your threads are informative), it seems he has let go of that assumption. :lol

OT : Makes sense, I guess. + rep. :)

Same.

I remember the good 'ol days of waking up early on Saturday to watch cartoons.... Miss those days.

So Boruto has Lightning,Wind and Water release? Damn, I think Naruto's bijuu chakra influenced him nicely. Prime Boruto will probably have all elements. :Sparks:

Oh ok thx, but that wall of text wasn't really needed. Boruto is a cheater, the device was forbidden, that's all.

They hang out after every mission and play video games together at the local burger joint.

Him and Shikidai are alike but Shikidai has a lot of Temari in him too. He works hard when he needs to.

You are welcome. :bdpf: Let's hope this thread doesn't get deleted also. :lol
Right.

When I get the answer I'll requote everyone and update the OP

So Boruto has Lightning,Wind and Water release? Damn, I think Naruto's bijuu chakra influenced him nicely. Prime Boruto will probably have all elements. :Sparks:
Not quite.

I have to await confirmation that Boruto actually says he can produce these elements on his own in the Hokage's office. After that, it's a done deal.

I don't think you understand what this thread was made for.

Well, I didn't have gadgets at school (I got my first smartphone way after starting my full-time job). But I cheated out of pure laziness a lot, even though I was considered among the best students.

Wait, are you saying that Kishi did actually want to put through some message about kids using gadgets too much? :wut: Which I would agree to, since it really is a problem with some kids nowadays.

That's right.

There is a big message with Boruto in that aspect, I could write a post on it if you wanted to?

Whoa there...I hope you're not grouping Naruto in with the natural born geniuses. He was possibly the dumbest kid in his class, and he got to where he is through hard work and endurance. At the beginning, he couldn't even pronounce "chakra" correctly, and now he's Hokage!

As for Boruto, he used the Kote device because it allowed him to go BEYOND his natural abilities. If I recall correctly, Boruto can only make 3 shadow clones at a time using his own chakra. With the Kote device, he could make enough to surround Shikadai without using any chakra. He's kinda like Konohamaru in episode 2 - Boruto wants to defeat Naruto to gain acknowledgement, but doesn't realize how far he has to go to even come close to Naruto.
