Biography:
Naruto was once described by Kakashi Hatake as
Konoha’s “number one loudest, unpredictable,
hyperactive knuckle headed ninja.” Naruto is always
energetic and a prankster at heart. Although he might not be
the most skilled ninja when it comes to any of the jutsu disciplines,
his resourcefulness and cleverness has surprised many
opponents in combat. He has repeated declared his own
“Way of the Ninja” in the series; this is mostly
comprised of never giving up and going back on his promises, as well as
always using his strength to protect his friends and loved
ones. But Naruto’s strong will can also turn into
stubbornness and even brashness in battle. On more
than one
occasion, his teammates had to step in and stop Naruto from charging
forward blindly in a fit of rage.Naruto is the son of the late Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and a kunoichi from the former Whirlpool Country, Kushina Uzumaki. It has been commented by Tsunade and Jiraiya that although Naruto resembles his father the most, his personality and jutsu style are almost identical to his mother’s. In order to stop the rampaging Nine-Tailed Demon Fox Kyuubi from destroying Konoha, the Fourth Hokage sealed
Kyuubi inside his own infant son, Naruto. However,
Namikaze soon died from the process, leaving Naruto an orphan (it is
presumed his mother passed away previously). Even though the
Third Hokage forbid the adults from speaking about the demon sealed
inside Naruto, most still feared and ostracized him. Even so,
Naruto wouldn't let anyone stop him from his goal to eventually become
Konoha’s Hokage.
Naruto took his first step towards his goal when
he graduated from the Ninja Academy to become a genin level
ninja. His mentor and closest person to a family was Iruka
Umino, who despite having his own parents killed by Kyuubi, did not
bear any grudge against Naruto. Because of the
Kyuubi’s chakra off-balancing his own, Naruto had a hard time
performing even basic jutsus and was often picked on by other
kids. Iruka was always there to encourage him and often
treated Naruto to ramen at Ichiraku’s to reward him for
achieving certain goals.
After graduating, Naruto gained new friends in
the form of his new sensei and teammates, Kakashi Hatake, Sakura Haruno
and Sasuke Uchiha. Although it was rough at first, Naruto
eventually made strong bonds with Sasuke and Sakura, and was willing to
do everything he can to protect them. Naruto had a
crush on Sakura, but she repeatedly had made it clear to him that she
was only interested in Sasuke. It would not be until part II
did Sakura’s feelings for Naruto began to surface.
Naruto’s determination to become Hokage one day even affected
Tsunade, who would become the Fifth Hokage. Because
Naruto’s spirit resembled so much of her little brother
Nawaki and her lover Dan (both killed in the Ninja Wars), Tsunade
decided to pass on her amulet from the First Hokage to
Naruto. The amulet will be crucial later in the series
because it contains a special chakra crystal which allowed the First
Hokage to tame tailed beasts.
During the Sasuke Retrieval arc, Naruto and other
Konoha shinobi under Shikamaru’s leadership set out to bring
Saskue back to Konoha. It ultimately led to Naruto facing
Sasuke in a one-on-one battle at the Valley of the End.
Naruto failed to defeat Sasuke, who went on alone to join
Orochimaru’s organization. Naruto nearly lost his
life in the battle, alive only because of Kyuubi’s
regenerative abilities and the fact that Sasuke did not finish him
off. Nevertheless, Naruto was not about to give up on
Sasuke. Even as he sat in his hospital bed, he pledged to
Sakura again to bring Sasuke back for her.
During the time skip before part II, Naruto set
out with Jiraiya to travel and train in preparation for his ultimate
confrontation with Sasuke again. Jiraiya was the sensei to
Naruto’s father, Minato Namikaze, and taught Naruto the
Rasengan, an original jutsu developed by Minato. Naruto
improved his skills and gained a host of new abilities including better
control of his Kyuubi transformation. However, after an
incident where he nearly killed Sakura during one of his rampages in
the four-tailed Kyuubi form, Naruto was convinced by Yamato to rely
more on his own power in order to reach Sasuke. After
intensive training with Kakashi and Yamato, Naruto eventually developed
his own jutsu, the Spiral Shuriken, based on the original Rasengan but
with Wind chakra injected into the mix. Naruto is most comfortable in close range hand to hand combat. His immense natural chakra reserve allows him greater stamina and gives him the ability to make multiple Shadow Clones with ease. Initially in the series, Naruto often charged in blindly with his clones in a mass attack. But in part II he has started to learn to use his clones more effectively by using them to test and analyze the enemy before committing to a full attack. Naruto’s signature move is still the Rasengan, it can deliver a lot of damage but must be delivered at point blank range to the target. Although the Spiral Shuriken is a far more deadly jutsu, Tsunade has forbid Naruto from using it because its long term effects could prevent Naruto from using chakra ever again. ***Spoliers: It has been revealed in chapter 367 that Naruto's biological parents were Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki.
