Many types of Rinnegan in Naruto

• Naruto introduced the powerful Rinnegan abilities
• Boruto expanded on different types of Rinnegan

There are many Rinnegan that fans have seen in the Naruto series over the years. The first of these legendary eyes that fans were introduced to belonged to none other than Nagato Uzumaki and was purple in color. However, it must be said that this Rinnegan actually belonged to Madara Uchiha and was transplanted into Nagato at a very young age. Madara's plan was to use Nagato and his Rinnegan to revive himself at some point later. Following Nagato, fans have seen several users possess this power, such as Obito, who stole it from him, and finally Madara Uchiha. Sasuke also awakened a purple Rinnegan in the war, and in his case, the eye also had six tomoe. Meanwhile, Kaguya Otsutsuki had a unique Rinne-Sharingan, something fans had never seen in the series that gave her powers beyond human understanding. In a way, this eye can also be seen as a form of the Rinnegan.

When one enters the Boruto series, new types of Rinnegan are revealed to fans. For example, Momoshiki's red Rinnegan gave him the ability to absorb any form of chakra and then expel it by multiplying it by many factors. After absorbing Kinshiki, he gained the power of the yellow Rinnegan, and it's safe to say that his powers far surpassed even the red one. Clearly, the power of the Rinnegan continued to become more and more diverse throughout the Boruto series, and when Kishimoto designed a character known as Urashiki, fans were impressed by how interesting the Rinnegan was apparently. Urashiki has been shown to have two different Rinnegan. He could use a red one with six tomoe and by using this power he could use the Kekkei Mora level technique called Yomotsu Hirasaka. Furthermore, he also gained a blue Rinnegan, which was unique to him and is precisely what is being discussed here.

What makes The Blue Rinnegan special

The Blue Rinnegan has powers bound to time

The Blue Rinnegan was apparently one step above Urashiki's Rinnegan by six tomoe. As fans know, the Red Rinnegan was able to use Yomotsu Hirasaka, meaning that if the Blue Rinnegan were to come out of him, then this eye was even more powerful. Unfortunately, the scaling in the Boruto anime series was completely broken, which meant fans couldn't actually see what level of power this eye really possessed. But at least some of his abilities were explained very well to the readers. Essentially, the Blue Rinnegan allowed Urashiki to manipulate time and with it the future itself.

This is a very powerful ability, the repercussions of using it even once can actually be huge.

Simply, with the power of the blue Rinnegan, Urashiki was able to warp seconds into the past. To the average person, this appeared as if Urashiki was simply teleporting and was quite confusing, even to Shinobi such as Sasuke Uchiha. For any user who possesses this power, it forms a perfect defensive ability against any target. Anyone who dares to strike at the user of the blue Rinnegan will simply fail due to the ability to warp into the past. Of course, the basic form of this power looks quite intriguing, but it only acts as a defensive ability.

But, it can also be used offensively, giving the user a chance to essentially land a critical hit on enemies. Simply by repeatedly using the ability to warp into the past, the user can gain pseudo-future vision, which essentially allows them to see what the future holds and act accordingly. Since this future cannot be changed, the Blue Rinnegan user can essentially know what will happen by repeatedly using their power and then counterattacking accordingly, potentially even ending all battles in one hit, especially if is wielded by Otsutsuki. level individuals. This power was dangerous enough to cause trouble for Sasuke Uchiha and that certainly says a lot about his capabilities.

The Blue Rinnegan, if allowed to be used unfettered, can give the user the power to wreak havoc on the battlefield and destroy all of their enemies with perfect counter attacks. It's quite easily one of the most over-the-top abilities fans have seen, especially considering it allows the user to slip into the past.

The Blue Rinnegan can also be consumed by Urashiki to gain more powers. At the end of his battle against the ninja, Urashiki ended up consuming his own eyes, and this gave him a new transformation with a higher level of power. Of course, this ended up taking the ability to slip back into the past away from him, but the price to pay was definitely worth it.

Is the Blue Rinnegan the strongest in the franchise?

The Blue Rinnegan is powerful, but not the most powerful

The blue Rinnegan is definitely very overpowered. The ability to slip past and even see counterattacks is very dangerous. Of all the Rinnegan, it can be said to be one of the most powerful. In addition to this ability, this Rinnegan should allow urashiki or any other user of this power to access the six paths. However, calling it the most overpowered Rinnegan would not be accurate. There are other Rinnegan in the series that are more dangerous. Madara's Rinnegan with the power of Limbo is definitely up there with the best.

Then we also have to consider Hagoromo's Rinnegan, which has powers beyond human understanding. The blue Rinnegan is at least stronger than Momoshiki's, but not as strong as Hagoromo's.

Boruto can be read through Viz Media. The series can be read by fans officially and for free on Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next Boruto chapter, Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 17, is set for December 20, 2024.
