"Orbs grant invulnerability. Enemies touched will take damage. User can move while defending and with an input, turn the orbs into projectiles, which on hit, resets the target's Ninjutsu and Ninja Tool cooldowns."
Truthseeker Orbs: Cycle is one of the Ninjutsu available to use in Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, as a part of Season Pass 3.
Properties[]
The user uses Six Paths Sage power to become encased in a Truthseeker Orb for 5s. In this stage, the user can freely move around and knock enemies back without getting hit. It will instantly break the guard.
The user can then simply cancel the Ninjutsu, or initiate its second stage, where they fire 6 Truthseeker Orbs in the direction they're facing (can go through walls), which will cause enemies' Ninjutsu & Ninja Tool stocks to reset, and slow their recovery rate for 5 seconds. It has excellent near-range tracking; if needed, it will make a U turn and circle around downed enemy until it hits) that gets worse with the distance.
The 2nd activation will also stop enemy's Chakra boost of In-Battle Scrolls if it hits. If the useer activates the 2nd stage in air after leaving the ground(even if the user touched briefly the ground in 1st stage), the user will fall down while executing the 2nd stage; if the user never touched the ground during 1st stage than the user will be suspended mid-air while executing the 2nd stage.
It will not take Bases nor Flags.

Usage Tips[]
Since the user is invincible in the first stage, they can use the orb to guard allies, and even protect their flags and bases. The second stage, if used right, can leave the opposition in a heap of trouble in close-quarter combat, since they will not have a way to easily escape or get in some proper damage.
Like Spiked Human Boulder it is very effective at killing summoned animals.
The brief animation before the orbs are launched in the second stage creates an opening which leaves the user vulnerable to certain attacks, such as being struck with a Paper Bomb Kunai or the second activation of Uchiha Shuriken Jutsu: Oboroguruma.
