Naruto Uzumaki is one of the strongest Shinobi in the history of Konoha. In fact, it wouldn't be a stretch to say that Naruto is the most powerful Shinobi to ever emerge from this village, and that until recently he stood tall as the greatest of all time.
Unfortunately, Boruto the series brought him quite a lot of misfortune and stripped him of almost all of his abilities. As such, the current version of Naruto Uzumaki is quite weak, especially after losing Kurama. While Naruto once stood at the pinnacle of power, now inward Borutomany other Konoha Shinobi have strength that far surpasses his own. As such, the current Naruto can be defeated by several Konoha Shinobi.
Naruto: How Sasuke Became the Strongest Uchiha in History After the Fourth Great Ninja War
Sasuke is powerful. He became the strongest Uchiha in history in Naruto.
Sakura Haruna
Although it may come as a surprise to some, at this point in the story Sakura Haruna he will most definitely be above Naruto Uzumaki in terms of overall powers. This is because of how Kishimoto transformed Sakura into Sasuke and Naruto. It should be noted that Naruto does not have access to Kurama right now, meaning that even the most basic power-ups he had, such as Kurama's Chakra Mode, are no longer accessible to him. His greatest power is his Sage Mode, and with this power, Naruto peaked in the Pain Arc. Even though his Sage Mode is slightly better than before and his overall Ninjutsu control has improved greatly, Sakura should still be stronger than him.
This is because when she fully awakened her powers in the Fourth Great Ninja War, Sakura was considered the equivalent of Sasuke's Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and Naruto's version of Kurama Chakra Mode Stage 1. This Kurama Chakra Mode was stacked on Sage Mode, meaning that Sakura should be much stronger than him at this point. Additionally, Sakura herself has gotten a lot stronger since the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War. Meanwhile, Naruto was merely nerfed and remarkably pushed back. At this point, Sakura should be able to defeat him.
Sarada Uchiha
Sarada Uchiha is another powerful ninja who should be able to defeat the current version of Naruto Uzumaki due to her recent Mangekyo Sharingan awakening. Sarada Uchiha gained access to this power in the Land of Wind and has used it constantly ever since. Sarada can summon up to four black holes with the power of Ohirume, and their gravity is such that even Shinju cannot escape from them.
Naruto Uzumaki is strong, but he doesn't have what it takes to escape Ohirume's gravitational pull. If Sarada wanted to, she could easily crush the Seventh Hokage with this power. It should be kept in mind that right now Sarada Uchiha is right next to the likes of Boruto and Kawaki in terms of power and will reach even higher levels in the future.
Sasuke Uchiha
Naruto and Sasuke have always had a rivalry and for the vast majority Sasuke he was always ahead. However, at the end of the Naruto series, fans saw that Naruto Uzumaki had finally gained the upper hand and moved forward quite a bit. Even with only half of Kurama, Naruto was able to defeat Sasuke despite holding back. As the years went by, Naruto progressed even further, especially with abilities like Baryon Mode. However, now Naruto has lost his greatest power, which is Kurama, and is left with only Sage Mode. With recent developments, Sasuke Uchiha is definitely stronger than Naruto.
It should be noted that Sasuke, despite losing the Rinnegan, still has access to his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which means he can utilize Full Body Susano abilities among many others. This very Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan version of Sasuke was scaled by Kishimoto right next to Kurama Chakra Mode and Sage Mode Naruto, meaning that at this point Sasuke should be far above the overall power. What's more, Sasuke also grew stronger during the time skip, as evidenced by the fact that he was able to injure Code in an extended battle while protecting Boruto Uzumaki. As such, if anything, there may be an argument for Sasuke becoming even stronger. He is quite clearly a level above Naruto Uzumaki at this point.
Rock Lee
Rock Lee he is currently one of the most powerful Jonin of Konoha and it goes without saying that he is a master of taijutsu. Lee has always excelled in taijutsu, but he didn't have access to all the Gates until the Fourth Great Ninja War. Now an adult Jonin, Lee is a complete master of the eight inner gate techniques and is said to have surpassed even Might Guy in terms of overall taijutsu skills. He can open all Eight Gates, and when he does, his overall strength is definitely higher than Naruto's, whose greatest strength at the moment is his Sage Mode.
7 Jutsu Of Naruto Uzumaki That Can Kill Otsutsuki Ranked
Naruto Uzumaki has many powerful abilities and some of them can even kill Otsutsuki.
Lee could easily destroy Naruto in battle, especially at his max strength. Of course, if he continued to use the Eighth Gate, he would die as well, but at least he would be able to kill Naruto easily.
Kawaki
Kawaki he is one of the newest Konoha shinobi to surpass Naruto Uzumaki. After being rescued by the Seventh Hokage, Kawaki decided to have Karma reintegrated into his body to become a weapon of destruction for the sake of his protector. Everything Kawaki does is because of Naruto, which is why he also sealed him away. Naruto, without Kurama's power, has absolutely no chance against him. A battle between the two would end remarkably quickly as Kawaki has the skills and experience of Isshiki thanks to karma.
-
His abilities are too strong for Naruto to compete with, that's a fact. Over the course of the timeskip, Kawaki became even stronger and gained complete control over the power of his karma, and his Kokugan evolved even further. Right now, Naruto has absolutely no chance against him in battle.
-
Boruto Uzumaki
Boruto Uzumaki he is one of the strongest ninja in the world right now and it wouldn't be a stretch to say that he is probably the strongest ninja right now. Boruto Uzumaki was already incredibly strong, but was trained by Sasuke Uchiha during the timeskip and then by Kashin Koji. With this training, Boruto was able to reach the next level of power and defeat even the likes of Code effortlessly. Now, Boruto has even gained access to Momoshiki's karma, meaning he can use Otsutsuki's power without any restrictions.
If there was any doubt, the current version of Boruto Uzumaki towers far above Naruto and would easily decimate him in battle. Unfortunately, Naruto Uzumaki is currently no match for Boruto in terms of overall strength.
Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 32 will be available to read on Manga Plus on March 18, 2026.
