Summary

Boruto’s new arsenal of ninjutsu shows off the impressive growth as a warrior that he experienced during the timeskip. The mysterious Koji Kashin, a clone of Jiraiya, may hold the key to how Boruto learned the Flying Thunder God technique, linking him to his grandfather’s legacy and making him the true heir of the Fourth Hokage .
Warning: SPOILERS chapter #4 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex
Boruto: Two blue tornadoes has shown impressive growth for the main character in a few chapters, but Boruto’s new jutsu takes him even further, proving him to be the true heir of Minato’s grandfather, the Fourth Hokage .
Boruto has been away from his village for 3 years and is hunted by shinobi from all over the world, forcing him to get stronger. His fighting style has changed to that of a swordsman, and he is much more intelligent, constantly analyzing his enemies. Boruto has also developed new ninjutsu, such as the devastating Rasengan Uzuhiko, but he is also clearly studying the techniques of his ancestors.
The legendary technique Flying Thunder God is the trademark of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze. Boruto surprisingly shows that he has mastered it in chapter #4 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, using it to teleport himself across great distances.
Boruto has become one of the fastest Ninja alive
Boruto mastered the signature jutsu of the Fourth Hokage, the God of Flying Thunder.
After being attacked by Rasengan Uzuhiko, Code realized he had no choice but to retreat to his hideout. Thankfully, Boruto planted a Toad on him earlier, which allowed him to track Code’s movements. As soon as Boruto confirmed the presence of the Ten-Tails, he concentrated his chakra and used the teleportation technique, Flying Thunder God, to appear at Code’s location immediately. This shows that Boruto not only mastered a technique that his father Naruto could never use, but also took it to a higher level than the Fourth Hokage did.
The Flying Thunder God, or Flying Raijin, is a legendary space-time ninjutsu created by the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju and mastered by Minato Namikaze, earning him the nickname “Yellow Lightning”. His incredible speed and deadly techniques were so terrifying that any ninja unfortunate enough to encounter him had to be ordered to flee. This technique works by teleporting the user to any location they have placed an imprint on, whether it be an object or a person. The Flying Thunder God often makes its user the fastest shinobi in the world, and it’s impressive that Boruto added this weapon to his arsenal.
Although Boruto says he is not as skilled at this as his grandfather, he actually uses the Flying Raijin to teleport to Kara’s hideout in another dimension, accessible only through through space-time ninjutsu. Neither Tobirama nor Minato had ever used the technique in this way or to go this far. In terms of Naruto, he has never used the Flying Thunder God or even tried to master it. This raises the question of how Boruto learned this technique, and the answer may lie with his newly revealed ally, Koji Kashin. Koji is a clone of Jiraiya, Minato’s master, so he may have some memories of the technique, but it’s an unlikely theory that needs to be confirmed.
Boruto: Two Blue Cyclones continues to make its main character stronger
What is certain is that Boruto surprises readers with how strong and impressive he has become after the timeskip. Considering he had mastered his grandfather’s technique, which Naruto had never even tried to use, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Boruto became the true heir of the Fourth Hokage.
