Who Is The Strongest Villain In Naruto? Strongest Villains Ranked!
Naruto series is incomplete without Villains. The stronger the Villains are, the more interesting it is to watch. Orochimaru, for example, is among the most hated character in Naruto, yet his appearance in any chapter/episode is just fire!! He grabs all attention.
So, in this post I’ll list down The Strongest & Most Influential Villains In Naruto.
(12) Haku
Raise hands if you thought Haku was a woman in the first glance. Keeping Haku’s gender aside, he was a highly trained and prodigious Ninja who, compared to his young age, was insanely lethal. He grabbed immense fan-following within a short point of time.
Heck, Haku was even stronger than Zabuza at the time he was alive.
(11) Zabuza
Zabuza is Haku’s master and the one who trained him. Kakashi had to struggle to keep up with Zabuza’s raw experience and strength.
As a fighter Zabuza was almost unbeatable by anyone, but he also had emotions for Haku.
(10) Kimimaro
Kimimaru is probably one of the most underappreciated character in Naruto. He had so much potential but he was killed before he could do much. What made Kimimaro dangerous was his ability to manipulate bones and use them as weapons.
Maybe he was too OP so Naruto creator (Kishimoto) had to find a vague reason to put him to death.
(9) Kabuto
More than physical prowess, Kabuto is extremely intelligent. In fact I would say he is more intelligent than Orochimaru at some points. He is single-handedly responsible for the reincarnation of previous strong Ninjas.
I think only Itachi was intelligent enough to beat him at his own game. As of now, Kabuto is leading a peaceful life as the director of an orphanage. No, that doesn’t mean he is free!
(8) Orochimaru
Orochimaru is the first name that comes when we talk about the best and more powerful villains in Naruto series. He is also one of the most dynamic character in the manga. From being Sannin to becoming the one to crush Konoha, Orochimaru really has come a long way.
Unlike Kabuto Orochimaru too had contribution in the Ninja War, but a good one. His one decision to reincarnate previous Hokage changed the entire course of the War. If you watch Boruto, you know that Orochimaru is not the one who he used to be before.
(7) Danzo
For someone Danzo was a Hero, but most he was one of the worst Villain Konoha ever had! For his whole life he thought he was right, and destroyed countless lives in the process. Even at the last moment of his death he tried to take down Sasuke with him.
Despite his old age, Danzo was immensely experienced not only in terms of physical strength, but also mental strength.
(6) The Akatsuki Group
Other than Pain, Itachi, Orochimaru and Obito there are also some villains who are worth mentioning. The Akatsuki Group as a whole are extremely powerful and effective in terms of beating and manipulating their enemy.
This small group of villains almost wiped out the Shinobi world. But, thanks to Itachi and other Shinobis, it didn’t happen.
(5) Obito
Obito is the classical example of what love & hatred can do to a person! Obito was considered dead in an accident when he was a kid. He also saw his best friend Kakashi kill his love of life Rin. This with Madara’s influence pushed him to become a determined villain.
Fortunately, in the end he learned his lesson and passed on to the other side. Not gonna lie, I cried a bit!
(4) Pain/Nagato
Nagato/Pain was created thanks to Danzo & Hanzo’s mastermind plan. Danzo thought to crush these three “kids” before they could become too strong. But I think you already know what happened later.
Danzo tried to save Konoha, but years later Pain/Nagato came and devastated it. This is exactly what unnecessary revenge does to anyone.
(3) Itachi
Now we are entering the Big Leagues! Itachi is the Hero of the War for people who knew about him, and the worst criminal in Konoha’s history for those who have no idea about his secret. And that’s what made Itachi the most unique Villain in Naruto series.
I wonder Itachi will reincarnate in Boruto too! Because if he does, the entire Shinobi world is done for!
(2) Madara
I suppose you already guessed this Demon? Yeah, I won’t consider him a Human. Dude literally destroyed a large group of shinobi single-handedly. That too as a reincarnation! All the Village Leaders tried immensely hard to bring him down, only to get crushed.
Hashirama couldn’t beat him, Guy’s Night Guy couldn’t beat him. He had a Rinnegan! I can go on and on about this man. He really was one of a kind! Many consider Itachi as the future Madara Uchiha, only the good side!
(1) Kaguya
Kaguya is the root of all of these. Everything has happened because of her. As you can see in the image, she has Byakugan, Sharingan and a plethora of abilities. It took Sasuke & Naruto considerable amount of strength and effort to bring her down.
But, I’m having a bad feeling that something even more powerful will arrive in Boruto…
