Is Code Stronger Than Daemon and Eida in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations?


The Naruto franchise has introduced incredibly strong enemies for the heroic ninjas of the Hidden Leaf Village to defeat, and one of the most powerful villains yet is Code, a bearer of Karma and currently the main antagonist of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga series by Masashi Kishimoto and Mikio Ikemoto.

As the last active Inner from Kara, Code carries Isshiki ÅŒtsutsuki's legacy with him as he inherited the ÅŒtsutsuki Clan's will to become a Celestial Being and continually evolve, but is he stronger than the powerful cyborgs Eida and Daemon?

As with most members of Kara, Daemon has been heavily modified with Scientific Ninja Tools. His signature ability is to instantly, even without intent or awareness, reflect an opponent's attack on him against them. Although the true depths of his power are still unknown, Amado has noted that his combat abilities exceed Jigen's as he has advanced taijutsu skill, able to break a man's neck with a single kick.

In Boruto Chapter 71, Daemon attacked Code after Code tried to kill Amado. Eida's little brother easily overpowered him after his power-limiters were rescinded. Daemon is shown to be fast and stealthy, able to instantly sneak out of his pod and catch him off-guard.

However, during his fight with Code, Bug reveals Daemon's weakness: his ability to reflect attacks sent against him requires him to be touching with his hands, even if who he is touching and who is attacking him are not the same person.

Code relies heavily on physical attacks, which put him at a massive disadvantage. However, the power gap between Jigen and Isshiki is too massive for Daemon to overcome. Code has a lot of abilities that could shut Daemon down (Chakra rods, cubes, shrinking , etc.,).

At this point, Code is likely stronger than Daemon . Even though Daemon is able to dominate the fight against Code, it's likely that we haven't seen the full extent of Code's power, but in Chapter 72, we've seen the villain distribute the chakra of the Ten Tails to create an army of creatures that look like a mix of White Zetsu and Frieza from Dragon Ball.

Daemon is also able to take down Boruto and Kawaki in Chapter 74, but it's unlikely that he'll be able to easily knock out Code.

Just like her little brother Daemon, Eida had been modified with advanced Scientific Ninja Tools by Amado. She has the ability to make anyone - man or woman - become infatuated with her. The powerful cyborg also has the power of Senrigan - the ability to perceive everything that's currently happening in the world and all that has happened in the past, up to the time she was born. And recently, Boruto Chapter 74 revealed that Eida could fly.

Since we still don't know the full potential of Code and Eida's powers, it's still difficult to gauge if Eida has a chance of beating Code. Based on what the manga revealed so far, it looks like Code is still more powerful than Eida in terms of raw power, so it's likely that Eida's power level is nowhere close to Code. However, with Daemon on her side, it won't be easy for Code to take them down if they end up fighting in a future chapter of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.
