Naruto was a prodigy at ninjutsu. You know, given how he was able to use the Shadow Clone Jutsu without Kurama's help and all. The shadowclone is also not a difficult jutsu to learn. What's difficult about it is that you need monstrous chakra to make proper use of it. BerserkerPhantom wrote: Naruto was still under the five pronged seal of Orochimaru's. Without Kurama, the best he could do was Gamatatsu, as we saw in the "Searching for Tsunade arc". It's like you don't even know how the jutsu works... O_o Exactly, he was under the Five Pronged seal which was what was giving him trouble with ninjutsu. The fact that he summoned Gamabunta with just some more chakra proves that it wasn't a skill issue, but a chakra issue.

Jiraiya had no proper contract. But the anime implies Boruto did in fact make a contract. He's been in contact with two people possessed by Dark chakra, so it's not impossible that he made a proper contract by accident.

The very first time he tried summoning, he neither used blood nor the right hand seals.

But we do know Boruto came in contact with two dark-chakra possessed beings, so there's the possibility that Boruto had some trace chakra on him that allowed the completion of the contract.
