Naruto is filled with numerous clans and shinobi that exemplify the diverse range of abilities found within Naruto's lore. The Konoha 11 are one such group that exemplifies the vast variety seen amongst shinobi as none of them retain the same skills or techniques as the others, despite all being exceptional shinobi.
The 11 members, who hail from Team 7, Team 8, Team 10, and Team Guy, all have their own areas of expertise, though collectively work together synchronously using their trust in one another and compatible jutsus. Looking at each individual member of the Konoha 11, here are their best techniques, from offensively oriented techniques to communication and enemy restriction-based ones.
Updated on February 6, 2022, by Suzail Ahmad: With Naruto coming to a close, a lot of things have changed. Naruto and Sasuke have become stronger than ever, and they have displayed their powers in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. The same goes for the rest of the members of Konoha 11. Almost all of them developed their skills even further after the culmination of Naruto. So, it is important to update the list with the current strongest jutsu of Konoha 11.
11 Naruto Uzumaki: Six Paths: Ultra-Big Ball Rasenshuriken
As the titular character, it's no surprise that Naruto possesses some of the strongest jutsus in his arsenal. While he has a wide variety of overpowered jutsus/techniques, his best was used in one of his many clashes against Sasuke and was a combination of his Six Paths Sage Mode, Six Paths Senjutsu, and a fully manifested Kurama.
When using Ultra-Big Ball Rasenshuriken, Naruto created two Kurama Shadow Clones and fused them to create a six-armed, three-faced entity. Using the combined chakra, he then formed a Six Paths Big Ball Rasenshuriken in the right arms and a Tailed Beast Ball Rasenshuriken in the left arms, merging them to create a devastating jutsu that rivaled Sasuke's strongest offensive jutsu.
CurrentStrongestJutsu: With the Fourth Great Ninja War coming to a close, Naruto cemented his status as the strongest ninja in history. The closest person to his level is Sasuke Uchiha. Naruto showed an incredibly destructive technique in Boruto known as the Baryon Mode. While in this mode, anything that Naruto touches loses its lifespan. However, this technique came at a great cost as it resulted in the death of Kurama.
10 Sakura Haruno: Ninja Art Creation Rebirth — Strength Of A Hundred Technique
Training under Tsunade, Sakura developed remarkable medical-nin abilities and impressively was able to develop the Strength of a Hundred Seal, a jutsu that demands remarkable chakra control for storing chakra at one focal point over a long period of time. Combining these skills, Sakura can use the forbidden Ninja Art Creation Rebirth — Strength of a Hundred Technique.
With this technique, Sakura can continually heal herself without consciously needing to acknowledge her injuries. The regeneration quality of this jutsu makes users somewhat invincible, as evident by Tsunade healing herself mere moments after being impaled by two swords.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Currently Sakura is the strongest female ninja in the world. Her skill supersedes anyone else's. However, the Strength of a Hundred technique remains her strongest jutsu.
9 Hinata Hyūga: Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists
Former heiress to the Hyūga clan, Hinata was gifted with techniques exclusive to the main branch, including the secret Gentle Fist technique. A technique with a name perfect for the timid shinobi, Hinata uses it in conjunction with her Byukagan, and her chakra control expertise allows her to effortlessly execute the most advanced techniques available to her.
Releasing chakra from both hands, Hinata molds her chakra to replicate guard lions, subsequently increasing her range and power levels. Upon impact, the lions can drain a target's chakra networks, allowing Hinata to both inflict damage and hinder her enemies.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Hinata had an important role to play in Naruto: TheLast, where she was kidnapped by Toneri Otsutsuki. Defeating Toneri was not an easy job, so she needed Naruto's help to take him down. Hinata and Naruto used Gentle Step Spiralling Twin Lion Fists, which is a combination technique. It consists of Hinata's Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists and Naruto's Rasengan. This technique was powerful enough to destroy the Tenseigan.
8 Kiba Inuzuka: Tail Chasing Fang Fang Rotating Fang
Joining forces with his loyal canine companion Akamaru, Kiba utilizes one of the Inuzuka clan's many jutsus that focus on the chemistry between shinobi and ninken (ninken being highly trained dogs with enhanced abilities).
Before using Tail Chasing Fang Fang Rotating Fang, Kiba and Akamaru first fuse to form a three-headed gigantic wolf using Human Beast Mixture Transformation. Once in this form, they then curl into a ball and roll around at tremendous speed, swiftly and vigorously knocking out several enemies at once.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Kiba's growth as a ninja has stunted after the Fourth Great Ninja War. He has not improved any of his past techniques, so his strongest jutsu is still the same.
7 Shino Aburame: Secret Technique: Insect Tornado
Living inside the Aburame clan are kikaichū, which are tiny beetles capable of flying. With a surplus of these insects within him, Shino can use them at his disposal in exchange for them feasting on his chakra. This technique itself is called the Parasitic Destruction Insect Technique and is the source of most of Shino's jutsus.
Using his kikaichū, Shino instructs them to exit his body and furiously surround his target. With a combination of seeking out chakra and listening to Shino's orders, the kikaichū then proceed to circle around their target rapidly, creating a tornado. Trapped, the target is rendered immobile and subject to the kikaichū maliciously eating their chakra and weakening them.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Shino became a teacher at the Academy after the war and in a way, this stopped his development as a ninja. Shino possesses dangerous insects, and he could easily overwhelm anyone on his day, but he has not developed a stronger jutsu, mainly due to the lack of time.
6 Shikamaru Nara: Shadow-Neck Binding Technique
The Nara clan are notorious for their Shadow Possession techniques that are perfect for constraining opponents. Shadow-Neck Binding technique differs due to its offensive properties which allow Shikamaru to forcefully restrain enemies with his shadow.
Being a Shadow Imitation Technique variation, Shikamaru uses his shadow to crawl up a target's body and either strangle them or hold them down. Bindings on the target become stronger the closer Shikamaru is, and the technique is so powerful it requires a lot of chakra to sustain.
Current Strongest Jutsu: After the war was over Shikamaru rose to the position of the Hokage's advisor, he became an invaluable asset to the Hidden Leaf. Currently, Shikamaru's strongest jutsu would be the Shadow Clutch Technique. It is an A-Rank technique that allows Shikamaru to materialize his shadow and use it to capture the opponent's shadow. Once the target's shadow has been captured, Shikamaru can freely move them.
5 Ino Yamanaka: Mind Body Transmission Jutsu
Rather than highlighting an offensive jutsu, Ino's best jutsu instead relies on her impressive sensory abilities akin to her clan. Using this jutsu, which is the Yamanaka clan's specialty, the user can telepathically project the thoughts, memories, or feelings of a person they are in contact with numerous allies.
After the loss of her father during the Fourth Shinobi World War, Ino went on to lead as Konoha's best sensory ninja. Combining her skills with her proficiency with this jutsu, she was able to use the Mind Body Transmission Jutsu to reach the entire battlefield on many occasions, exemplifying the range and usefulness of this technique.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Unlike Sakura, who has a great deal of physical strength, Ino specializes in techniques that allow her to take control of the body of others. Like the other members of the Yamanaka Clan, Ino is apt at using mind-related techniques. Ino's Mind Clone Switch technique allows her to clone her consciousness and take control of two bodies instead of one. While using this technique, Ino's body is left completely defenseless, which makes it a very risky technique.
4 Choji Akimichi: Super Open Hand Slap
Known for their Multi-Size Technique, the Akimichi Clan use their shifting sizes to deliver devastating physical attacks. Choji, as a renowned Akimichi, has shown impressive usage of his clan's jutsus and demonstrated how beneficial the power increases are in fending off stronger opponents.
Simply put, the Super Open Hand Slap sees the enlarged user generate chakra from their open palm and effortlessly slap down on their opponents. Given Choji's increased size, strength, and weight, the impact is monstrous and is capable of destroying large areas.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Choji is an impressive fighter, but ever since the war wrapped up, the viewers haven't seen him in action. So, he still has the same strongest jutsu.
3 Rock Lee: Eight Gates
Perhaps one of the hardest to master and deadliest to use is the Eight Gates, a series of tenketsu that see the user pushing their bodies to the limit by forcibly removing normal limitations. While helpful in unlocking Lee's true potential, using the Eight Gates has dangerous effects, as the reciprocated power increase results in self-inflicted damage.
Once reaching adulthood, Lee can now open all gates, but previously was only capable of opening six. The final gate, Gate of Death, results in the user perishing due to burning from the inside in exchange for power beyond recognition. While this increase in strength and speed is beneficial, it is not recommended to be used ignorantly.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Once a taijutsu expert has mastered the Eight Inner Gates, there is nothing else that they could learn. The same holds true for Lee, whose strongest Jutsu is still the Eight Inner Gates.
2 Neji Hyūga: Eight Trigrams One Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms
Despite not being from the Hyūga's main branch, Neji showed promise at a young age, going on to master several techniques through mere observation exclusive to the main branch. The Eight Trigrams and the many variations of it are an example of the techniques Neji taught himself, despite being born into the Hyūga's branch of the house.
Eight Trigrams One Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms is the improved version of Eight Trigrams Sixty Four Palms, simply doubling in speed and chakra points hit. The technique's purpose is to mitigate enemies' chakra flow by impacting their chakra points, thus preventing them from relying on chakra usage.
Current Strongest Jutsu: Unfortunately, Neji suffered a gruesome death during the war, which brought his life to an untimely end. So, he never got the chance to improve his technique.
1 Tenten: Manipulated Tools: Heavenly Chain Disaster
Tenten's expertise lies in weapon usage and fūinjutsu, which involves weapons and objects being sealed into another object (typically scrolls, in Tenten's case). With competence in a variety of weapons, Tenten's arsenal is massive, allowing her versatile weapon-fighting styles to suit the type of opponent she is facing.
Heavenly Chain Disaster is one of Tenten's many jutsus that requires weapon summoning. Hurling two larger scrolls into the air, Tenten unleashes a downpour of weapons that move fast enough to leave white streaks as they descend. The high volume of weapons makes it unbelievably difficult for enemies to evade, thus allowing for higher success rates for hitting.
Current Strongest Jutsu: The Fourth Great Ninja War was a turning point in the lives of many ninjas, including Tenten. She was a weapon's expert, but during the war, she took her ability up a notch. When she came in possession of the Bashosen, Tenten became a frightening opponent. With one swing of the Bashosen, Tenten was able to destroy one of Kakuzu's masks. After the war, Tenten has possession of all the tools of the Sage of Six Paths.
