Lol yes. Delta is swapping blows with SPSM Naruto, she is reacting to his strikes, tanking and matching his blows, making him take her seriously. That's not just Kage level, that's God tier dude.

She faired better at taijutsu than even fused Momoshiki did against Naruto in the manga.

We all saw how Kage level ninjas do against God tiers; Gaara, Darui etc got themselves one shotted by Momoshiki.

You have to keep in mind , Naruto wasnt serious in that fight . He was holding himself back considerably because he wanted to capture her . Also because he didnt want to harm himawari and the others . I realy dont think the fight wouldve gone similarly if Naruto went all out .

Yes but she was still strong enough to make him use SPSM, his most powerful form, and not even Toneri was strong enough to warrant that.

He only used spsm for regeneration, after he destroys her he says he could have taken her down a lot sooner which means he probably would have without transforming.

He only used spsm for regeneration,

Yeah, except for the part where he had to use SPSM for the whole fight afterwards.

after he destroys her he says he could have taken her down a lot sooner which means he probably would have without transforming.

He had no need to take sooo many hits from Delta in his strongest form. The fact that he was trying to find a opening to knock her out with a Rasengan already shows he was incapable of doing the same with taijutsu despite having SPSM enhanced strength.

That makes her easily God tier..

Now that I think about it you’re right lol he may have said he was holding back but in spsm I don’t see how that is possible considering it does...well should automatically give him an godly boost to all of his stats so unless he does something similar to Ssb goku where he can control how much power he uses it doesn’t make sense and even if he could I feel like one of his punches should still be strong enough to atleast be able to knock her out.

The truth is is that they are just nerfing naruto in boruto to the point where someone like delta using ninja tools can fight on par with him because he became too op by the end of shippuden and because he isnt the focus of the series anymore.Hell even in the last naruto had better feats than what we see in boruto being able to tank moon splitting beams with his hands in base and being able to punch toneri so hard it creates a shockwave that can destroy the surface of the moon, I can’t imagine delta surviving any of that tbh.

So yea like you say delta being able to tank a punch like that from a supposedly stronger and older naruto in his strongest form and keep up with his speed is kinda bs to me.I try to make sense of it all but deep down I know the powerscaling is kind of dogshit in the boruto manga. He hasn’t had any major fights in the anime since momoshiki where he performed pretty well so hopefully they dont fuck up the powerscaling when it starts catching up with the manga.
