Who Is the Ōtsutsuki God in Boruto?

The Ōtsutsuki Clan is one of the most powerful groups in the Naruto and Boruto series, and just when the original Naruto fans thought that they were done with the Ōtsutsuki Clan, Boruto brought the clan back. They’re a threat to the protagonists once more. They have been a persistent threat to the world of shinobi, and what makes them so notorious is not just their powers and abilities but also their ability to adapt to different conditions and pose a threat even under vastly different circumstances. In this article, we will talk about a recently-introduced manga-only character, known as Shibai Ōtsutsuki, who is also known as the Ōtsutsuki God.

Shibai Ōtsutsuki is a recently-introduced manga-only chapter and a member of the Ōtsutsuki Clan. Shibai is a very enigmatic entity who has, apparently, achieved almost limitless, godlike powers, but he had to sacrifice countless worlds to achieve that level. He is, among the Ōtsutsuki, revered as a godly being despite being deceased. Not much is known about him aside from that.

The rest of this article will focus solely on the character of Shibai Ōtsutsuki, the Ōtsutsuki God, as we bring you everything you need to know about him and his actions. We are going to tell you some information about the history of the character, as well as his role in the whole story. We will also answer a series of relevant questions about Shibai Ōtsutsuki, the Ōtsutsuki God.

Who is Shibai Ōtsutsuki, the Ōtsutsuki God?

Shibai Ōtsutsuki, who belonged to the clan’s main family, was considered and respected as a god. Shibai practiced the chakra fruit ingestion ritual known as the Ōtsutsuki route. Shibai avoided dying by being brought back to life through Karma. This allowed him to keep eating chakra fruits for thousands of years, which led to the completion of his evolution and the attainment of godhood. Shibai eventually traveled to a higher realm and purposefully discarded his body after countless iterations of evolution. Shibai has long, white hair that reaches down to his lower back, and he is a lean man. He had on a battered black robe. He had horns that curved upward and resembled something akin to a crown.

His left eye is black, and he has a third eye on his forehead that resembles the Rinnegan, so at least as a Ōtsutsuki, his right eye is white, even when the Byakugan wasn’t functioning. He has a little beard that covers his chin and is separated into five pieces. Shibai attained godhood after ingesting chakra fruits for eons and avoiding death due to Kama. He is able to create storms with the wave of his palm and call forth lightning with the roar of his Shinjutsu, which are phenomena akin to miracles.

He can also reflect any harm that is dealt to him thanks to a special power. Shibai, a Ōtsutsuki clan member, is also able to fly, like all other members of his clan. He has a Rinnegan on his forehead, a Byakugan in his right eye, and a particular dojutsu that gives him the power to see into the future in his left eye; the name of that technique is not known at this moment. Amado Sanzu eventually came into possession of Shibai’s body. Shibai’s genetic material was removed by Amado, who then implanted it into Kara members Ada and Daemon, giving them his abilities.

And this is all that is known about Shibai Ōtsutsuki, the Ōtsutsuki God, at this moment. Not many facts have been revealed about this enigmatic character, and it remains to be seen how his story will fit within the overall lore of the Boruto series.

What is Shibai Ōtsutsuki’s role in the story?

As we have said, very little is known about Shibai Ōtsutsuki at this point in the story. He seems to be a very important symbol in the Ōtsutsuki Clan lore, but it is not known how important he really is, aside from being a symbol of something that is, likewise, unknown at this moment in time. We also have no clue as to how deep into his story and his background Kishimoto plans on going, so – basically – Shibai Ōtsutsuki is one big mystery, and we’ll just have to wait and see how it evolves.

From our perspective, there might be two possibilities. According to the first one, Shibai Ōtsutsuki is simply going to remain a symbol for the Ōtsutsuki Clan and a character through which the history of the Ōtsutsuki Clan will be explained. Shibai Ōtsutsuki could also be used, in a way, to explain how the Ōtsutsuki got their powers and how they are so powerful; the nature of the Ōtsutsuki Clan’s powers is still a big mystery, mainly due to their alien background, and Shibai Ōtsutsuki could be used as a way to explain all of that, and that would make absolute sense.

Kishimoto would not have to explore the character deeper, and he would not have to come up with some weird way for the character of Shibai Ōtsutsuki to physically appear in the story. This makes more sense if you ask us, and we honestly think that this is how Shibai Ōtsutsuki will be used in the future.

The second possibility gives Shibai Ōtsutsuki a much bigger role in the story of Boruto. Namely, according to this theory, Shibai Ōtsutsuki will make a physical appearance later in the story, most likely as the main villain of the series. Namely, the Ōtsutsuki have proven themselves to be quite resilient. They are very hard to get rid of, and they usually keep finding ways to return to the story.

Shibai Ōtsutsuki is, as we know, dead, but there is a possibility that he might come back to life in the story. The remaining Ōtsutsuki might want to revive him to fulfill a plan of theirs or something similar to that, which would account for his return. Now, this theory is a bit more complicated, and it demands a lot of creativity on Kishimoto’s side, as well as a lot of detours, so we don’t think it is likely, but you never know.
