Background

Naruto returns to Konoha after training with Jiraiya before Hawking draws and loads his Protagonist Template. The template links Hawking to Naruto for one hour per day, transferring Kurama and Naruto's relevant memories into Hawking during that period. 76 82

The transfer leaves Naruto temporarily without the Nine-Tails' chakra, though he suffers no apparent harm and reports feeling lighter than before. Kurama returns to Naruto when Hawking's loading period ends. 80 81 83

Naruto accepts Hawking's explanation unusually quickly, saying Hawking feels like a good person. Their friendship gives Hawking regular access to Mount Myōboku and later Konoha. 83 95

Appearance

Naruto has blond hair, whisker-like facial marks, and typically wears a Konoha forehead protector. Hawking's Naruto-template appearance is nearly identical to Naruto's in clothing, mannerisms, and features, though Hawking's face differs and he is slightly taller. 82

• Blond hair.
• Whisker-like cheek marks.
• Konoha forehead protector.
• Standard shinobi attire. 82

Personality

Naruto is open-hearted, trusting, and strongly motivated by his bonds with others. He readily accepts Hawking as a friend, even describing the unfamiliar visitor as someone who feels inherently trustworthy. 83

He is resolute about his ambitions and promises. His desire to bring Sasuke back to Konoha is tied to his personal ninja way: he refuses to abandon a promise, even when facing opponents far beyond his current strength. 139

Naruto can also be naïve. Yamato is able to distract him with a fabricated S-rank mission, and Hawking later exploits Naruto's concern about becoming Hokage to push him toward confronting his feelings for Hinata. 241 275
