Notes and Interesting Stuff from Naruto Novels
[VERY MUCH UNDER CONSTRUCTION] I’m going to use this as a page to reference things from the novels that people might find interesting for powerscaling, videos, debates etc. If you need scans / direct quotes, send me a message on the messaging things.
Spoilers. So many spoilers.
Naruto Retsuden - Naruto’s Story - Uzumaki Naruto and the Spiral Destiny
14: “Eternal Flame” from natural gas pocket, 6th hokage discovered a vast supply of natural gas
Naruto: “his bright golden hair flashed like lightning, his clear blue eyes were reminiscent of ramune soda in summer. He was in his mid-thirties”
15: “the way he was loved transcended everything else”
Kizahashi was lifted out of economic strife by Kakashi via the natural gas economy
17: “The cutting-edge photon gun supplied by their employer was designed to attack from a distance with a forty-thousand-watt excimer laser beam. Because the heat of the laser was instantaneously transmitted from cell to cell, even if the beam only grazed the tip of a hair, the target’s body temperature would shoot up uncontrollably witihnminutes, and the target would internally combust.
19 - Kakashi described as the worst possible thing imaginable :(
21 - Sakura is described as having “immense strength that brooked no resistance”
22 - The photon gun had enough firepower to pierce seven grown men standing in a line
25 - Naruto was bound by scientific ninja tool ropes reinforced with chakra
31 - Naruto has to do paperwork because of the Daimyo holding up tradition. Shitstons.
31 - pain described as “flash of lightning” that ripped through his chest.
35 - Kurama mentions that Hagoromo was sick and recovered in the Land of Redaku
38 - Sakura tells Naruto to not USE chakra.
39 - The land of Redaku, separated from the outside world by a mountain range thirteen thousand feet high
Kakashi already has a relationship with the king since he recently established communications via hawk
Sakura: “Even if you take a train to the far west of the five great nations and then go to the capital from there, if you hurry, it’ll maybe take two weeks?” “No.” Sasuke shook his head. “ He’ll need to get his body used to the oxygen concentration at higher altitudes. It’ll take twenty days.
43 - “mountain of paperwork on his desk.”
45 - Kizahashi is apparently mad at Konoha because Konoha is seeking energy independence which will cut down on Kiza’s energy profits
Naruto’s gonna send Sasuke
47 - Naruto wishes Haku and Zabuza were with him so they could see and enjoy the era of peace
48 - “fireworks bounced around in his skull”
52 - Sasuke decides to go to the Observatory
Sakura says that Sasuke will “use Susano’o, so she probably won’t be able to catch up for a while”
53 - Naruto was going to lose his ability to run chakra through his chakra channels, which were closing up.
54 - orochimaru - “the zori in the entryway were very much a woman’s.”
60 - naruto gets byakugan goggles
64 - orochimaru described as a mom friend, so, as a woman
65 - hinata has a box of treasures including the umbilical cords of her two kids
66 - Neji’s log describes Naruto’s unpredictability as “the imagination to upend expectations of others.”
69 - chakra-filled shinobi” were walking all around which made Naruto’s use of the byakugan goggles difficult
73 - petri dishes full of liquefied chakra. Pluripotent chakra applicator, so like chakra stem cells lol
They want to use chakra as a potential source of renewable energy
74 - the scientist, chihare, asks Naruto how he changes Chakra into wind. “Wait - how DO I do it?” “I go THUD and then BAM, I guess.” Naruto repeated earnestly, and hearing it, Chihare let out a sigh. “All you shinobi say the same incomprehensible thing.” …”you must work with the idea, the intention of trying to give chakra the form of wind. Just like when you move your arms and legs, your brain gives the command to knead chakra, the chakra receives that, and changes.” She was right. AS long as Naruto didn’t have the intention of changing Chakra into Wind, the chakra flowing through his body wouldn’t transform.
77 - Chihare is trying to use chakra to artificially create Kizahashi gas to make it sustainable.
78 - scouter lol
78: “she was powerfully direct, stabbing straight into his heart.”
80 - chihare wants to use it to cure illness, grow organs
82 - riding motorbike made it hard to keep his eyes open
83 - photon gun fires at naruto from the drone
87 - naruto dodges laser beams on a bike
88 - drones glow with red light for a second before firing
94 - backstory about how Hagoromo got the Ultra Particles. Basically, a meteor landed, he split it in two, there was shit in it that healed him and gave him a massive chakra boost. He hid half of the particles on earth and half “in a star” or whatever the ass
107 - “at the average travel speed of a Jonin, it was about thirty days from Konoha to Redaku.”
110 - ultra particles amplify chakra and can restore the constricting chakra pathways
111 - however if they touch someone who already has a lot of chakra it can cause an overload and kill them? A bit confusing
114 - Naruto is OK with desk work because it provides a service to the village. The first thing he did as a hokage was to give a license to a sweet shop
117 - Orochimaru based his goggles on the tech Zansul used for his fake eyes, and that was apparently inspired by something Hagoromo did to help his blind-ass friend
119 - Chihare found “a star” that was moving around weirdly. She was into astrophysics
But others didn’t believe her
125 - discussion of the math and imagery / metaphor of whirlpools
128 - “from the speed it was using” (sakura and sasuke’s chakra) it appeared to be using the Susano’o. Consistent with the idea that it’s a speed boost from before
133 - Furieh wants to use the pluripotent chakra applicator to replicate ultra particles and use it as a weapon to kill off shinobi. Which means that non-shinobi who don’t have chakra won’t be affected
140 - Orochimaru “dodges laser beams” while sneezing, but also gets his shoulder cut by the blades of one of the propellers
142 - the muzzles of the laser beams have to extend outward, turn red and heat up before firing. Just as the gun was about to fire Naruto turned it around to hit something else. The maneuver takes less than 1/10th of a second.
145 - he’s able to stand up to orochimaru in physicals despite not having chakra or being able to use chakra.
146 - Orochimaru fires the photon gun at Furieh from close range, but only hits his knee. Then, fire starts to spread and propagate from that location across his body.
147 - A civilian manages to grab a gun and point it at the ceiling and fire before a sannin can close the distance to stop her
152 - More explanation of how the chakra sickness works, via Kurama’s chakra leaking in and blurring with his own and causing his chakra pathways/channels to constrict
155 - SOSP used a jutsu to return the meteor to the sky, that’s the “star” that Chihare discovered
155 - the orbit is six months. It orbits faster than the moon
156 - Kakashi makes an earth pillar that is 125 miles tall. Sakura and Sasuke have to ride a bike up the side of it.
164 - Team Asuma ride several trains overnight to get to Kizahashi instead of running despite being Jounin, so the average travel speed would be less than that of a train
169 - Sai makes a goose so he can get to Redaku in twenty hours, whereas shinobi would take 20 days and hawks would take 2 days. THe creature is called a Yadonaki and is implied to have some rudimentary intelligence.
170 - Sai flies over a range of desolate mountains for a long time after passing through the countries he knows
173 - with the chakra pluripotent applicator, Chihare was able to increase the fuel capacity of the bike by converting chakra to Kazahashi gas. The limit was “dramatically” raised to 2k km per full-charged cartridge.
174 - Naruto and Sasuke are given an oxygen device to go into the low atmosphere
175 - the bike has to go exactly at 125 mph the whole time so they’ll hit the asteroid at just the right moment
175 - they race vertically up the pillar…
183 - the bike was plastered to the pillar with chakra control
Moving at 125 mph the wind was hurting their eyes and making it hard for them to see.
Ice pellets also caused them physical pain at this speed
184 - the bike also gets hit by a lightning bolt.
185 - “a few seconds before the discharge,” sasuke throws a kunai and cuts through a lightning bolt, he throws it in advance rather than reacting to it.
186 - Sai - “no matter how strong he had been as a shinobi, he still couldn’t live without oxygen.” he was at 16,000 feet and he was feeling lightheaded and nauseous, the phrase Altitute Sickness is used, specifically.
188 - threesome, lol
198 - the bike couldn’t stop suddenly
202 - sai almost dies from altitude sickness
204 - Sasuke uses ame no tejikara with a headband to teleport 165m to the satellite and then stabs through his own foot with his sword to affix the satellite to himself and then gets ready to smash it.
209 - maybe reread this, sasuke descends from the tower, the particles become unsealed, idk what’s happening
210 - Naruto headbutts the metal container open.
219 - Sai does a Beer delivery from the land of waves/
^^^sometime before, when Naruto rescues the Chihare or whatever, he smashes the ground without chakra and breaks it, though he says it’s not like it was Sakura doing it.
Kakashi’s Story (smth about frozen lightning)
16 - vullain, garyo, wants to resurrect madaras ideals. Uses ice style.
20 - money hurt land of waves aftr bridge
21 tgwyre gonna make airships. Travel time comparison
23 blood prison castle mentioned
30 - losing the sharingan means losing the lightning blade
35 tobishachimaru airship top speed 70 kmh
40 - molding chakra hands climbing up
41 - kakashi is relieved that the propeller blades were spinning slowly enough for him to get through.
63 - civilians were bound up and stripped naked and going to be executed. Kakashi was there,
65 - lightning style - violet bolt.
70 - kakashi doesn’t blitz the ice guy even though he’s killing people.
72 - durability - kakashi is bloodied by the punches of non-shinobi
86 - an attack described as capable of breaking ice is also described as being capable of completely knocking out guy. Guy also “masters” a style of fighting similar to Drunken Boxing, airsickness fists or whatever. His nunchaku are also described as moving so fast they can’t be seen, humming, etc. etc.
103 - durability: “they could have been the greatest ninja in the world, but there was still only one way things could end if they hit the ground from a height of five thousand meters”
106 - it looks like sai’s bird, with him on it, made it from konoha to somewhere off the coast of the land of waves in probably around 30-45 minutes, in time for him to grab kakashi and the passengers
110 - the tsuchikage, ohnoki, can see the airship above Konoha from where he is, and he says other lands can see it too. It’s at a height of 7000 meters.
111- “village of rokoku which sells blue explosive powder.”
113 - the airship is heading to the land of grass. They have 3 minutes to get there before the executions start. They don’t just send someone over…
It has a max speed of 70 km/h. It’s somewhere near the land of waves, and they estimate it’s going to get to the land of grass within 20 minutes.
120 - kahyo had already marked Kakashi with the ice jutsu the first time they met and he saved her
124 - zabuza was a lower class citizen of Kiri in the caste system. Only lower class members were force to take place in the mutual student ninja execution shit.
Homeless ninja went to the Land of Waves to try to find a better life and leave combat behind
125 - Hakuhyo, kahyo’s child, protects his friend from hornets by casting out ice style. He’s just a kid. “He released jutsu after jutsu, things he couldn’t have been taught by anyone…he produced the ice swords through the method written in his blood.”
133 - the boiling temperature for water, including blood, will be lowered, and they will all die
This is true! At 60,000 feet, they should have reached the armstrong limit in the Naruto novel, at which point their blood would boil without pressurization…
However, your body’s tension is enough to maintain enough pressure that this might not literally happen
Ebullism
139 - kakashi has a pretty impressive feat of using purple lightning to break off the clasps of the airship passenger’s blue fire powder laced parachute backpacks
144 - it’s implied that Rahyo, an ice style user, will indeed die once hitting the ground, despite being a shinobi.
156 - the tsuchikage and two others are approaching at “incredible speed” which should be sub-relativistic but has this qualifier of being “incredible.” while approaching they are visible but don’t arrive before Kakashi and the ice ninja are talking.
163 - purple lightning used to create a chain reaction that causes rain to fall? Lightning creating lightning when kakashi leaps into the cloud, to make more moisture available for ice style
166 - Kakashi decides to become hokage. “If these guys need me to, kakashi thought, I’ll gather up all of their sadness and take it into myself. Right, like it’s the most natural thing. And I’ll struggle together with them and that sadness. That’s what it means to be hokage.
Kahyo becomes the new castle master of Hozuki castle (warden) and looks over the prisoners, using her ice style to confine them
179 - reference to the month of March
180 - Kahyo freezes the Raikage’s beard off
186 - reference to the season of Spring, references previously to ground cherries growing in season

(very unedited) Boruto Movie Novel
this is from a fan translation: https://web.archive.org/web/20160224225312/http://cacatuasulphureacitrinocristata.tumblr.com/post/126680750651/caca-first-thank-you-so-much-for-translating see also https://www.scribd.com/document/756890668/Boruto-Naruto-the-Movie
page 2:
tempered overall.
That said, it wasn’t pointless sinew. His muscles were practical in the same way a leopard or lion’s would be, with
some faint softness of fat remaining.
So this is Ootsutsuki Kaguya’s castle, huh…
In the past, Sasuke and his comrades had defeated Kaguya. It was because Kaguya had set out to have all shinobi
sacrificed to her, and to absorb their chakra. It was obvious that they’d show no compassion to that sort of clan.
However, it was a fact that a great mystery remained after her defeat.
Where had the Ootsutsuki come from?
What had they set out to do with the artificially made shinobi, the white zetsu?
What would be the meaning behind harvesting chakra fruit?
It boiled down to the fundamental question: what were shinobi?
…There aren’t any traces of anyone having lived here for a long time. Looks like it’s best to think of it as an
abandoned base.
He wondered how far they had walked.
His lightning release took on the form of plasma in his hand, striking against the ions in the atmosphere. The chi-chi
chi sound released almost had the same feeling as the sound crows made.
The two men’s attacks intersected.
!
The enemy were ogres.
Like something that
image
would come out of a children’s book, they were two men with horns growing out of their heads.
When people are about to move, their muscles will tense slightly in preparation for the movement. Sasuke’s eyes
never overlooked that “source” of imminent movement. That was why it was possible for him to move before his
opponent did.
It couldn’t be thought of as simple muscle power. It had to be that the giant was strengthening his muscles with
some kind of jutsu
The panda bear who’d been hit in the face, right in a place where sensitive nerves were gathered in his eyes and
snout, let out a taken aback shriek, and started to run away with the speed of lightning.
Piercing a blow through the panda bear’s bulky layers of fat was impossible for humans without increasing their
strength with chakra, but when it came to just letting them experience pain, that was certainly possible.
60 km/h.
That’s the speed of a running bear.
That was why it was useless for normal people to run away from a bear. And naturally, since the panda bear was a
close relative, it’s speed was equal, or rather, even more than that of a bear’s.
Boruto and the others could still keep up with the panda bear because while they were young, they were ninja.
Next to the TV that had been showing the news, there was a mountain of overflowing piles of empty coffee cans and
nutrition drink packets.
That was the compensation for carrying out the superhuman feat of integrating the consciousness of countless
numbers of kage bunshin and making decisions for each one of them.
The strained atmosphere was broken by the arrival of Katasuke, the leader of the Scientific Ninja Tool Division.
He was the sort of man who wore clothes that wore ‘egg head’ written all over them, and to make matters worse, a
bow necktie. H
Those words enraged Sarada all over again.
Thud! She struck a hand against the table, partially destroying it. Shikadai and Inojin hurriedly moved to saved the
game consoles
Their conversation wasn’t getting anyway, but Sarada had begun to consider why Boruto was so angry, and fallen
silent.
However, the meaning behind that silence didn’t reach Boruto, who was still wrapped up in fury.
The hours felt like a dream.
His father was here, his mother was here, and his little sister was smiling.
Nobody was lonely.
Large, piping hot chicken taken out from the oven.
Himawari’s sparkling eyes.
Confetti scattering everywhere from the crackers.
His mother, looking she was having fun for the first time in so long.
And, his father, who warmly watched over her expression.
It would’ve been nice if this lasted forever.
If things could just stay like this.
Boruto thought.
He wished.
He couldn’t forgive him.
He couldn’t possibly forgive him.
His father’s love towards his children had been a Kage Bunshin’s illusion
The man who stood behind the door easily stopped Boruto’s fist.
He was a man who looked kinda like a blade had turned into a person. Something about him felt similar to a certain
girl with glasses he knew
Sasuke’s Rinnegan had several sciences to it, and one of them was pattern recognition. It helped him analyse
patterns inside codes, and by comparing them to similar patterns, decipher what was written.
Sasuke heard the sound of air being sliced.
The sound of a shuriken.
It was being thrown with top-knotch skill, full of intent to be a knockout blow.
It was aimed with perfect accuracy towards the artery at the back of Sasuke’s neck
To think he hadn’t understood the significance of his Rasengan… Sasuke thought.
That was how frighteningly genius Boruto’s talent was.
When Sarada ran off to find Boruto, Sasuke gazed at the sight of his beloved daughter’s back for a long time.
In a wasteland, a giant octopus was grappling with two beings.
The two beings were ogres.
They were the same ogres who Sasuke had grappled with at Kaguya’s castle.
Why were they here in this world…?
There was only one answer:
They were here to carry out what Kaguya had left unfinished.
“The Divine Tree has been cut down, and Kaguya is nowhere to be seen. It looks like the things of this planet have
somehow gained some unnecessary intelligence.” He said.
“It looks like there’s nothing to do but retrieve it back, bit by bit.” The giant ogre next to him said, and the younger
one gave a thin smile.
he collapsed Eight Tail’s shape trembled, and then disappeared. He had been absorbed into the ogre.
One of the destroyed Eight Tail’s cut-off octopus legs had a single figure crawling out. It was no one but the
Jinchuuriki Killer B himself.
“Shit…” he said, “The next guy they’re gonna target…it’s Naruto!”
Boruto felt his eyes grow hot.
They weren’t tears of rage.
“This shitty dad…”
Boruto held onto his pillow and cried.
He thought he’d die if anyone came into his room right now.
He was so happy
Amidst all the daimyou and businessmen there were also people who already were pulling out mission requests, or
asking for Boruto’s data file.
How was that, you shitty dad?
It was at this moment that the two ogres appeared in the arena
“It’s this one…” The young ogre’s were darker than thre river styx, “This one holds the strongest and biggest chakra
in this seed-plot. If we recover it, we should be able to plant the Divine Tree again…”
“I’ll finish you!” The orge said, and moved.
No- he looked like he was about to move.
The giant ogre had been in the middle of an attack when his movements had frozen completely
^^ this is different, momoshiki does things differently... and he is hit with shadow possession
Sasuke took his Susanoo sword in hand, and charged towards the giant ogre. It was the same male he’d failed to
kill at the castle.
“UOOOOOOOOH!” He swung his huge sword down. He held conviction that the weight and the speed would ensure
a kill no matter the timing.
However, his opponent wasn’t an ordinary person either
“Vengeance for my horn!” The giant ogre’s huge axe became noticably bigger
^^ confirm i this happens in the other versions
“I am Ootsutsuki Momoshiki.” The younger ogre gave his name.
“I’m Ootsutsuki Kinshiki.” The giant ogre gave his name as well. He had a thundering voice.
“What are you after?!”
“We only want to start over what Ootsutsuki Kaguya, who used to be in this seedplot, failed to carry out.”
“That being retrieving the scattered chakra by gathering it into one fruit.“
different characters announcing things in different orders.
“I am Ootsutsuki Momoshiki.” The younger ogre gave his name.
“I’m Ootsutsuki Kinshiki.” The giant ogre gave his name as well. He had a thundering voice.
“What are you after?!”
“We only want to start over what Ootsutsuki Kaguya, who used to be in this seedplot, failed to carry out.”
“That being retrieving the scattered chakra by gathering it into one fruit.“
The ancient Chinese believed that ingesting long-lasting mineral substances such as jade, cinnabar, or hematite would confer some of that longevity on the person who consumed them.[3] Gold was considered particularly potent, as it was a non-tarnishing precious metal; the idea of potable or drinkable gold is found in China by the end of the third century BC
He could see that the people of this star were practically using the chakra that Kaguya had left behind in their own
way.If it had been the people of any other star, then they would’ve been annihilated with his first blow. It didn’t amuse
him for these ones to cause him so much trouble
“We’ll be out of offensive jutsu after this.” Momoshiki said.
A large clump of energy appeared from Momoshiki’s left hand.
It was the Tailed Beast Bomb he’d inhaled from the Eight Tails.
It had been amplified several times over, to the point that it now looked like a comet that foretold their ruin.
That ominous light dominated everything
There wasn’t even the slightest hesitation in the Kazekage Gaara’s words. On his back was a gourd. Stored inside it
was sand that gave him an absolute defence which he used to protect weaker people to the very end. He was an
indestructible hero
“After all, if one of the Five Kage is gone, then the term will go out of use.” Darui said with a smile. His appearance
looked a little like a flashy middle aged man, but the truth was he was a man more nimble and daring than anyone
else
They were the strongest of shinobi, the Gokage, after all
Extra Translator Notes:
*If anyone is an FMA fan like I am, you’re going to get a real kick out of this. According to Japanese myth, mixing
cinnabar with certain elements would result in a red elixir that gave immortality- otherwise known as the
Philosopher’s Stone.
It plainly wasn’t the airspace of his own world.
Kaguya had held the power of sending people into parallel worlds too… Is this something like a kekkai, or a
subspace?
About half of it looked like the second-hand knowledge he had of the games his son played, but this place shouldn’t
be all that different from his own world.
Naruto’s movements were hindered.
He was physically restrained. He quickly realised he was bound to a pillar.
So they intend to use the same method they suck up jutsu with…to rip out Kurama from inside my body…
Those words ‘just this one’ let him guess that other Jinchuuriki had been hunted down too
Naruto grinned from where he was restrained to the pillar.
“!”
Momoshiki noticed his intent, and raised his head up. He was already too late
The fabric of space tore open, and a nostalgic sight burst out
“How to say this?” Darui said. “You’ll get destroyed at this rate, yknow.”
Darui used his muscles as a bullet of mass and swooped down on Momoshiki. Momoshiki evaded this attack, as
well, however this too was only a diversion. Gaara with his Absolute Defence of sand was approaching from behind
them!
“Don’t think that you can run away fro us.” he said.
“You low-grade beings!
But, that was as far as he could go. Choujuurou fell to his knees because of the bleeding he’d suffered from his
wound. For a while, it’d be best for him not to move ??? was choujuurou wounded?
Momoshiki turned around in mid-air, intending to fell down Sasuke with one large sweep of his sword, but in
Sasuke’s place there was the chakra pillar that Naruto had been restrained to.
It was the Body Replacement jutsu.
Gaara continued as he expanded his sand and took control of the air space. “It’s the same as Kaguya, huh.”
no mention of cutting the tree.
As one would expect…from the skilled ones of this world…I suppose I only have a few minutes left…
Kinshiki understood that the time had come.
He was calmer than he’d thought he’d be.
If he did this, then he’d have succeeded in doing his duty.
His final service
Momoshiki was cornered.
He could say that he’d fought well against his opponents, Naruto, Sasuke, Gaara, and Darui.
However, the root of his power existed in absorbing the jutsu of others. Taijutsu wasn’t something that could be
externally released, so it also wasn’t something that could be sucked in.
Unfortunately, the four in front of him were shinobi who were extremely first class in taijutsu as well as everything
else.
Nngh
His blood was flowing.
While he may have been the Absolute Defence, he couldn’t convert kinetic energy to zero.
He wrung out every single ounce of chakra in his body and brought out countless weapons.
In the face of his fierce torrent of attacks, even Naruto who’d united with Kurama and Sasuke who’d started
operating Susanoo, were both thrown back with a single blow
It is my duty as your parental role.” Kinshiki guided Momoshiki just as he had done in the past. “The only thing I can
pass onto you is power…Do not hesitate.”
“…”
“Just as my parental role once entrusted his power to me….now I do to you.”
“…Of course.” Momoshiki extended his right hand towards Kinshiki.
The time had come.
Sucking up the power of jutsu from its very foundation.
It was given from parental role to child.
What do you understand? Momoshiki thought, but saying that out loud would only insult Kinshiki’s resolution.
There was only one way to repay him.
“The transfer of power…that is our clan’s law.” Momoshiki said, and ate the cinnabar pancea pills that had been
created from Kinshiki
“From the very beginning, this star was the our Ootsutsuki’s seedplot!” He yelled, “Come now, the time for all the
chakra to be eaten has come!”
He was truly an ogre.
Those who would eat the soul of someone who’d been like a father couldn’t be anything other than an ogre.
That was their law.
Momoshiki, who had passed from being an ogre into a comrade-eating fiend and transformed into a inhumane
demon, began to suck in the chakra from his surroundings.
He was even draining the chakra that was beyond the parallel dimension he’d made. Sasuke could clearly see the
stream with his rinnegan.
It could mean only one thing.
“Don’t tell me he’s…!”
“Aa. He plans to indiscriminately eat up all of this star’s chakra.”
They couldn’t allow such a thing to happen.
This wasn’t a problem of scrambling for the bijuu anymore
Momoshiki was standing his ground too.
He charged towards the two heroes with a giant crowbar of chakra
Jutsu rained on them as if the world was ending.
Crimson flames, lightning that split heaven and earth, absolute zero degree blizzard, a downpour of meteorites.
They threw back Katasuke and them first
The pitch black shadow covered everything.
It was the darkness of despair.
“Thi- this is…!” Boruto grew afraid of the approaching shadow
“I won’t kill the fox…but, the others are a nuisance.”
A rasengan appeared in Momoshiki’s left palm. It was originally Konohamaru’s rasengan that Katasuke had copied
and fired, however the size and amount of chakra loaded into it now had a huge difference. Even Naruto’s Big Ball
Rasengan was surpassed by far.
“Guh…”
Sand that was full of his mother’s spirit floated around the restrained Gaara, but even that would likely be torn away
by the rasengan.
“This is the end.” Momoshiki said.
This was a rasengan that was full of Kinshiki’s soul.
Momoshiki believed there was no way it wouldn’t utterly destroy the Gokage.
Sasuke had expanded his Susanoo, and was brining Boruot along with him as he soared through the sky.
Either way, it was a jutsu unique to Boruto alone.
“However, this power isn’t enough to defeat me.”
Momoshiki was getting up, an indignant expression on his face. He ate more cinnabar panacea, his skin now turning
black as pitch night
The rasengan was full of everything that made up his father

Some things the novel did differently:
• Killer B survives using the good ol' Cut Tentacle Substitution™ trick. He listens in on the Ootstutsuki's conversation about targeting Naruto next, yet somehow wasn't able to warn Konoha in time.
• Kinshiki is more of a threat.
• Momoshiki doesn't transform Killer B's Bijuu chakra into the chakra pills; also doesn't mention how he had to consume most of his pills to travel to Earth's dimension.
• After Momoshiki consumed his guardian Kinshiki, first thing he does is start absorbing his time-space's and Earth's chakra Kaguya-style. The novel implies mankind lives on Momoshiki's planet.

This was a question of whether mankind who lived on this star would be able to greet tomorrow.
Edit: The novel is most likely referring to Earth's time-space's mankind.
• The Chuunin Exams which take place during the events of the novel is said to be the first one where all five major villages are at peace. Which boggles my mind because (1) it's been 15-odd years since the end of the Fourth War and (2) surely other shinobi (like Mirai) must've been promoted to Chuunin status in the meantime.
• I remember people saying that the novel mentioned other Shinju Trees, how Momoshiki's Tree was exhausted and all that. Yet in the novel no Shinju Trees other than Earth's and the one Momoshiki wanted to plant were mentioned. When Momoshiki's absorbing Naruto's Bijuu chakra, Naruto is tied to a pillar made of chakra instead of a Shinju Tree. The translation doesn't at all mention a Shinju Tree in Momoshiki's dimension. Did I accidentally skip a page or something?
“It’s this one…” The young ogre’s were darker than thre river styx, “This one holds the strongest and biggest chakra in this seed-plot. If we recover it, we should be able to plant the Divine Tree again…”
• Tenten, Shino, Kiba, Iruka -- and probably others -- don't appear at all in the novel.
• It's mentioned how the information on the Ootsutsuki they'd gotten from Toneri was very little.
• Instead of resorting to the Gauntlet, Boruto actually uses the shuriken skills Sasuke taught him to defeat Yurui.
• At the end, Sasuke leaves to further investigate the Ootsutsuki.
While the true identities of Momoshiki and Kinshiki were going to be investigated without pause while Sasuke, redoing the everything from the last exam was going to be a lot of work, even when it came to just arranging the line up of examiners.
(...)
Sasuke looked over the two of them, and gave a smile that he never showed anyone but Sakura. Then, he disappeared into the darkness again.
• Naruto takes two days off at the end.
• The BoruSara shipping is stronger in this one.
• The vanishing Rasengan uses a Wind Style manipulation. The movie doesn't bother to tell which Chakra Nature it uses.
• Different battle choreographies. Too many differences to list. The big fight between Sasuke, Naruto and Momoshiki doesn't receive a lot of attention and details in the novel.
