The Enigma of Naruto's Truth-Seeker Orbs

Many anime enthusiasts have wondered about the fate of Naruto's last three truth-seeking orbs. Where did they go? The truth is, we don't know for certain! This mystery is not explained by Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of the series, because he simply chose to omit it rather than losing power or using them in battle.

Naruto with the Orbs in Battle

Throughout the series, especially during Sasuke's fight and even in Ashura form when he threw the Rasenshuriken, Naruto clearly possessed the orbs. If he had lost them due to the seal, he would not have been able to use them in this fight since the seal had long been removed. Additionally, if he had used them for that final Rasenshuriken, we would have seen him with fewer than three orbs. Instead, we see him with one orb remaining and possibly the others still at his disposal.

Where Did the Orbs Go?

The most logical explanation is that Kishimoto simply removed this aspect from the story. Naruto stores the orbs in his chakra or body, activating them when necessary. They vanish when he deactivates his mode and returns to his normal state.

Special Abilities and Regeneration of Truth-Seeker Orbs

Other characters like Madara and Obito could not regenerate their truth-seeking orbs after their initial loss. The only known exception is Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths (SOSP), who can regenerate them countless times.

Why Aren't Naruto's Truth-Seeker Orbs Regenerated?

Some theories suggest that the Boruto anime and manga may not have the resources or interest in drawing these orbs. However, Naruto should still have at least three, assuming he hasn't used them in battles like the clash with Indra's Arrow, where he exhausted a considerable amount of chakra, causing his coat to vanish.

Significance and Potential Use of the Orbs

While Naruto retains his Rikudo form, it remains unknown whether he can recreate the missing orbs. These orbs are incredibly powerful and are one of his most remarkable abilities. His failure to use them in critical moments is disappointing to fans. Some theories suggest that Naruto can use these orbs only when he proves his capability in the Boruto series.

For a more detailed explanation, you might want to refer to Thomas White's answer on whether Naruto truly kept SO6P chakra. His seal intact, Sasuke's eyes were unlocked but Naruto himself didn't show lasting power-ups.

So, until Naruto demonstrates his ability to regenerate and use the truth-seeking orbs in the Boruto series, the mystery remains unsolved. Whether he can or will ever use them again is a question that continues to intrigue fans.

Cheers!
