Why did Naruto in the inal story have such a small and pearance? You easily figure it out.

  Malnutrition.

  Or it might be self-destructive for the sake of growth.

  Being able to grow normally, that would be a strahing!

  Konoha Vilge o longer be relied upon.

  So, if Naruto wants to eat well, he has to take matters into his own hands.

  And this forest has bee Naruto's first choice.

  From the beginning, when he had no self-defense capabilities, he would gather some wild vegetables and mountain fruits from the outskirts. Later on, after Naruto refined his own chakra for the first time, especially after entering the Ninja Academy and stantly being strohe range of food gathering expanded. It now included live fish, shrimp, crabs in front of him, as well as some wild animals in the forest, all of whiaruto hunted. Even some slightly fierce wild beasts, Naruto ow hahem on his own. In fact, in the beginning, Naruto even took these wild beasts as his sparring partners. What's more, even if he 't win, speaking bluntly, he still has the ANBU tailing him, and the worst result is that these ANBU will intervene, so Naruto really has no taboos.

  And it's all thanks to this method.

  Naruto hasn't had to worry about his food in this time.

  This method not only allows him to obtain food but also provides a certain degree of training.

  Why not do it?

  As for whether it will be restricted or not?

  Naruto says, no worries at all.

  This matter is not a problem at all, those ANBU who are monit him will definitely report everything to the Third Hokage down to the smallest detail. Plus, that old man himself has a crystal ball that monitor the entire Konoha. As long as he doesn't stop it at the beginning, it means that this behavior is allowed.

  The fish he catches, Naruto just makes soup out of them. This is the cookihod that best ehe freshness and nutrition of the live fish. As for the taste, Naruto doesn't care. Uhese ditions, Naruto is not picky at all. The most important goal is tthen his bat power. He chooses whatever method best supplement nutrition a his daily training needs.

  As for some necessary equipment for ninja training, Naruto obtain some from the Ninja Academy after he eo study. Another part, even if Naruto 't buy it himself, he still get it through Iruka. Even though Iruka still maintains a mixture of pity, worry, hatred, and fusion towards Naruto, he does it mainly because the Third Hokage has arranged for Iruka to take care of Naruto. He not only has the ability but also because of his loyalty to Iruka's teag.

  For example, Iruka often takes Naruto to improve their meals. When he learhat Naruto needed some training equipment, he didn't hesitate to spend his own moo buy and give it to Naruto. Even if Naruto said he could pay, Iruka would smile and dee. Although Naruto doesn't have access to the ails Chakra yet and 't sense malicious i, just the atmosphere, especially when Naruto and Iruka meet eye to eye, Naruto feel a warmth.

  Thanks to this, in this year and more, Naruto's life has bee smoother. In terms of training, it is steadily progressing. Even during his days at the Ninja Academy, it's much better than Naruto had expected. At least the children at school don't look at him with fear and disgust, because they don't know the truth yet. In addition, this time Naruto is not as mischievous, quiet, and calm as he was in the inal, bined with his golden hair. Also, in terms of learning, he's far from the bottom like in the inal. Although Naruto deliberately hides, he doesn't take the first p the css. However, no matter whether it's theoretical exams or practical tests, Naruto's overall score sistently ranks iop five, and in terms of theoretical knowledge, he holds the first pce.

  This has made Naruto quite popur among the girls at school.

  The number one in popurity is still the Uchiha 's young master.

  Not only because of his looks but also because in a, this sed pilr has always been ranked first. Added to that, he is the you son of the head of the Uchiha , the vilge's number one ninja family. So, receiving so much favor is only natural.

  Naruto doesn't care about the school's superficial fame.

  He hides it a little because he doesn't want to draw too much attention to himself.

  It's not that he's afraid of anything.

  At this stage, with the Third Hokage bag him, as long as he doesn't do anything eous and the Third Hokage doesn't really see through what he's thinking, there won't be any problems. That damned bandage man 't take him away as long as the Third Hokage is alive.

  As long as the Third Hokage is still alive.

  On this point, Naruto really has to thank the Third Hokage a bit in his heart.

  It's just a fleeting thought.

  He shows the appropriate level of achievement and ability, and it's mainly because he has always been diligent and eager to learn. Plus, the Third Hokage occasionally checks his training "from the sky". Without achievements that he be proud of, Naruto would have a problem. So, Naruto's method of hiding a bit is not a big deal. Besides, people tend to focus on the first pce. To most people's eyes, is there much differeween sed pd tenth pce?

  No!

  So, this year has gone by. Not only during his personal time but als his time at the Ninja Academy, Naruto has been quite fortable.

  "Well the's give it a try today."

  After personally preparing a very sumptuous lund taking a short break, Naruto began his afternoon training. Starting from tree-climbing exercises at the beginning and ter water-walking exercises, Naruto spent a siderable amount of time. Acc to the standards of an ordinary ninja, this is sidered an average time. In the inal story, it looked like Naruto learned very quickly, but iy, by that time, Naruto had already had a certain foundation. If you look at how he behaved during his time in the Ninja Academy, where he performed roof-hopping and caused trouble everywhere, it's clear that he had a basiderstanding of chakra manipution, just that he appeared more casual and rough. Under Kakashi's guidance for tree-climbing and the guidance of the Four-Eyes for water-walking, he naturally learned quickly.

  To put it bluntly, the Naruto in the inal story, whether he was learning anything, relied on his physical instincts.

  And this time, Naruto's learning relies more on his brain.

  Of course, there are also subscious reas in terms of the body, but they are somewhat depe on the habits of the past life. More often, he uses his brain to think. In the absence of any guidanaruto's training is naturally a bit slower than in the inal.
