Boruto’s Rasengan Uzuhiko against Hidari proves he could kill Code anytime he wanted

It has been a considerable amount of time since Code’s last appearance in the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga. During his last encounter with the protagonist, he outwitted them and managed to flee his hideout in order to avoid the God Trees.

The protagonist’s decision to leave the White Karma user, whom he had already trapped using his Rasengan Uzuhuko, left fans infuriated. He had only done so in the hopes of receiving assistance in his battle against the God Trees.

The most recent updates from the manga indicate that Boruto’s Rasengan Uzuhiko not only has the ability to disrupt the target’s balance, but also to completely erase them from existence.

Please note: The following article contains spoilers from the Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga.

Rasengan’s Damage on Hidari Proves Boruto’s Superiority Over Code

As fans may recall from the third chapter of the manga, the protagonist’s Uzuhiko Rasengan caused Code to lose his balance and fall to the ground. Despite his attempts to stand back up, he continuously fell back down.

As previously mentioned on the franchise’s website and by the protagonist in chapter 12, Rasengan Uzuhiko utilized the planet’s centrifugal force resulting from its rotation and orbit. Therefore, when Code was struck by the attack, fans were under the impression that it could only weaken an opponent, leaving them in a susceptible position.

Despite fans’ belief that Rasengan Uzuhiko was a jutsu designed to immobilize and slowly kill an opponent, evidence proved otherwise. However, chapter 12’s developments rendered all such theories obsolete.

In chapter 12 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, it became evident that Rasengan Uzuhiko posed a greater threat than initially thought by fans. The main characters, accompanied by Sarada, battled against God Tree Hidari. Despite causing considerable damage to the God Tree, Hidari had the advantage of being able to heal himself at his hideout. This allowed him to continuously teleport between his hideout and the battlefield using his Claw Marks ability.

In light of the circumstances, it was evident that Boruto and Sarada had to eliminate the God Tree with a single strike. Sarada Uchiha proposed that the main character employ his Rasengan on Hidari, but the protagonist had a more effective strategy in mind.

Boruto had planned to utilize his Rasengan Uzuhiko at full power in order to defeat the God Tree. However, when the chance arose to strike Hidari with the attack, the protagonist realized that it was not fully charged.

Despite being incomplete, the Rasengan Uzuhiko used by Boruto proved to be a devastating attack that obliterated most of Hidari’s body. This display of power served as evidence that the protagonist had the ability to defeat Code at any given time.

The reason for this is that Code was significantly weaker than all of the God Trees and he was just a human. As a result, being struck by an attack that could destroy a large portion of his body would have ultimately led to his demise.
