Background

Naruto is displaced into the past after Mukade forcibly opens the Fourth Hokage's seal during Naruto's mission to capture him. Separated from his companions, he arrives in the ancient city of Rōran, where Minato rescues him from a fall after his battle with the mummified guards. Naruto reveals that he comes from a future in which Minato is the Fourth Hokage. 61 62

Karot identifies Naruto as a Nine-Tails jinchūriki by recognizing Kurama's aura, while Minato realizes that Naruto is his future son. Naruto is initially disturbed that Karot knows Kurama's name, but Karot encourages him to seek coexistence with the tailed beast rather than fear it. 62

Naruto later trains at Mount Myōboku to overcome the weakness he felt after time travel. He masters Sage Mode under Sage Fukasaku, then works with Karot to address its brief duration. 71 75

Appearance

Naruto is a yellow-haired Leaf shinobi who wears a Konohagakure forehead protector. 61

• His eyes turn golden when he draws on Kurama's chakra. 230
• He is recognized as resembling Minato, sharing his hair color and Rasengan. 62

Personality

Naruto is impulsive, direct, and quick to act. After being transported to Rōran, he immediately attacks the suspicious guards rather than retreating, and he responds to the purple giant by creating hundreds of clones for a frontal assault. 61 64

He is determined to become stronger and refuses to accept his limitations. His desire to learn Sage Mode comes from recognizing his own weakness, while his choice to earn Kurama's approval reflects a willingness to pursue the harder path instead of forcing submission. 71 146

Naruto is also compassionate and readily accepts responsibility for others. He agrees to care for Boruto after Karot asks him to do so, feeling an unexplained closeness to the stranded boy. 156
