Background / History

Naruto struggled with the Academy’s Clone Technique and failed his graduation examination, leaving him devastated because becoming Hokage was his defining ambition. Mizuki exploited that disappointment by steering him toward the Scroll of Sealing. 10 11

Lin Fan intervened by impersonating Naruto to draw away Konoha’s pursuit, buying Naruto time to learn the Multi-Shadow Clone Technique. After Mizuki revealed the truth about the Nine-Tails sealed inside him and the death of Lin Fan’s parents, Lin Fan reassured Naruto that he bore no blame for events that occurred when he was an infant. Naruto regained his confidence, used his clones to defeat Mizuki, and began his life as a shinobi. 12

Naruto later joined Team 7 under Kakashi Hatake alongside Lin Fan and Sasuke Uchiha. He declared his dream of becoming Hokage, while his early place on the team was shaped by rivalry with Sasuke and reliance on Lin Fan’s encouragement. 15

Appearance

After three years away training with Jiraiya, Naruto returns taller, more mature, and having just passed 1.7 meters in height. He has blond hair and azure eyes. 29 124 209

• In Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, a dazzling golden chakra form covers his body. 209
• He can envelop others in Nine-Tails chakra cloaks, including Kakashi and the Allied Forces. 235

Personality

Naruto is openly ambitious and refuses to abandon his goal of becoming Hokage, even when setbacks expose the gap between him and his peers. His response is consistently to seek more training and greater strength. 11 97 125

He is intensely loyal to Sasuke. Even after Sasuke defects, Naruto rejects the label of rogue ninja, insists that Sasuke can return, and resolves to become strong enough to defeat and persuade him. 87 154

Naruto is also empathetic toward people marked by isolation or hatred. He listens to Nagato’s history rather than simply attacking him, using conversation to seek an answer for peace. 174 175
