After Code dismantled the Ten-Tails using his claw mark, the remnants fused together to form an evolved incarnation named Jura. Consequently, the Shinju, or Human God Trees, are a more advanced breed of Claw Grimes — sentient beings unlike their predecessors.

Jura leads this new generation, and currently, we see five awakened Human God Trees:

  • Jura – Evolved from the tailed beast and serves as the leader.
  • Hidari – Woke up after Sasuke Uchiha became ensnared in a tree.
  • Mamushi – Created after consuming one of Kara’s outers, Bug.
  • Matsuri – Birthed when a claw grime devoured Moegi Kazamatsuri, transforming her into a tree.
  • Ryu – Emerged using a Thorn Bulb when a claw grime consumed Shinki.

How Did Claw Grimes Evolve Into Human God Trees?

Do you remember the Claw Grimes shapeshifting from the Kara’s Ten Tails? When these Claw Grimes consume a person, that individual becomes unconscious and transforms into a tree, summoning an evolved humanoid that resembles the consumed person. These humanoid creatures gain the victim’s powers and abilities due to the complete absorption of chakra. Unlike their original counterparts, these evolved entities are intelligent and self-aware.

Code’s White Kama has been pivotal in triggering this evolution. The awakened Human God Trees are instinctively attracted to devour their targeted Otsutsuki to become a ‘complete god tree’. Here are each God Tree’s targets in the Boruto TBV storyline:

  • Jura targets Naruto and Himawari Uzumaki.
  • Hidari focuses on Sarada Uchiha.
  • Mamushi seeks to consume Ada.
  • Matsuri, who has a romantic interest in Konohamaru Sarutobi, also targets him.
  • Ryu has his sights set on Gaara.

Interestingly, recent chapters illustrate that these Human God Trees are capable of suppressing their predatory instincts, revealing a genuine curiosity about their ninja-dominated world. Jura’s eagerness to understand this new environment adds a unique dimension to their villainy.

The fascinating aspect of the Human God Trees is that they possess even greater power than Code, the being responsible for their evolution. These God Trees flaunt remarkable strength, incredible speed, and quick regeneration abilities. Some of their unique powers include:

  • Inheriting the Rinnegan at birth.
  • Mastery over their claw marks.
  • Ability to unleash a Tailed Beast Ball.
  • Capability to perform Wood Release via Ten-Tails cells.
  • Replicating the combat techniques of devoured individuals, though with limitations.

What is the Weakness of Human God Trees in Boruto?

Despite their fearsome strength, the Human God Tree Clones are not invincible. One of their primary weaknesses is linked to their Thorn Soul Bulb. When one of the Shinju clones is incapacitated, the bulb drops to the ground. It was evident when Mamushi warned Jura they needed to resurrect Hidari before his bulb began to rot, highlighting that it can be erased if not utilized promptly.

These clones share a surprising similarity with humans — they have emotions. During interactions, Jura noted their vulnerability. Such emotional sensitivity may create openings for defeat, resembling how human emotions can lead to their downfall.

This exploration of the Human God Trees in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex reveals a compelling world of antagonists reminiscent of the Akatsuki from Naruto.
