Is Boruto an Otsutsuki, Akatsuki, Uchiha, or Alien Explained


In Naruto, fans are aware that Masahi Kishimoto did not only develop a well-written story about Naruto’s journey but also added a history of the bloodlines of the shinobi world. It explained how everything started, and how it is connected to what happened in the story. 

Fans were also exposed to different groups like Akatsuki, and clans such as Uchiha and Otsutsuki. With that, fans have been curious as to where Boruto belongs. Considering that he is the son of Naruto and Hinata, it could be easily said that he has blood from the Uzumaki and Hyuga clans. But is there also a chance that he could be an Otsutsuki, Akatsuki, Uchiha, or even an alien?

The answer is yes. The reason for this is that Naruto is a descendant of Hagoromo Otsutsuki while Hinata is a descendant of Hamura Otsutsuki. This means that Boruto is the direct descendant of both sides. 

Another fact to prove this is that Boruto has the curse of Karma Seals by Momoshiki Otsutsuki. The seals let Boruto tap the powers of Momoshiki of the Otsutsuki clan. The downfall is that the seal allows Momoshiki to make Boruto his vessel to be the perfect Otsutsuki member.

Before we answer that, let us first discuss the group Akatsuki. The group was comprised of powerful shinobi existing outside the villages. The group was led by different individuals over the decades and are usually regarded as criminals. 

Unfortunately, the group is no longer existing in the world of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations which means Boruto is and will not be a part of the said group. Even if there was an episode where the White Zetsu appeared, a previous Akatsuki member, it still doesn’t mean that the group will be back anytime soon.

Again, the answer is no. The Uchiha clan is one of the noble clans of the Hidden Leaf Village. They are regarded as the strongest as they have amazing battle prowess and Sharingan. Since Boruto’s parents are not a part of the said clan, of course, this means that he is not an Uchiha. What he did, on the other hand, is being trained by a powerful Uchiha, which is Sasuke.

Earlier, we said that Boruto is part of Otsutsuki since his parents are direct descendants. For those who are not aware, the Otsutsujki clan are celestial beings. They arrived on Earth a millennium ago and had a lasting influence on humans. It is safe to say that they are interdimensional aliens but it would be more accurate to consider them as gods from a different planet and dimension.
