Summary

Naruto Uzumaki is a shinobi of Konohagakure's Uzumaki clan. He became the jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails on the day of his birth — a fate that caused him to be shunned by most of Konoha throughout his childhood. After joining Team Kakashi, Naruto worked hard to gain the village's acknowledgement all the while chasing his dream to become Hokage. In the following years, through many hardships and ordeals, he became a capable ninja regarded as a hero both by the villagers, and soon after, the rest of the world, becoming known as the Hero of the Hidden Leaf. He proved to be one of the main factors in winning the Fourth Shinobi World War as he fought against Obito, Madara, and Kaguya respectively. Naruto also finally settled his conflict with Sasuke Uchiha in their Final Battle.

Standard Equipment:

• Kunai
• Shuriken
• Paper Bombs

Intelligence: Average normally, Genius in combat, Extraordinary Genius with Chakra understanding and manipulation

• General and Combative Intelligence
• Chakra Understanding and Manipulation

Naruto acts headstrong and often acts without thinking, however, Naruto's years as a prankster gave him a cunning imagination that is useful in battle. He is a remarkable tactile learner, able to learn better through executing a task rather than theorizing about it. Once they see him in action, even the likes of the Second Hokage revised their thoughts about his intellect. Naruto can formulate multi-step plans and even backups to those plans in the thick of battle. Naruto's strategies typically involve shadow clones: he may direct his opponent's attention towards one of his clones to disguise his movements; he may transform them into objects or other individuals for surprise attacks; he may make himself seem predictable by creating a pattern, to throw them off by breaking it. He is rather observant, able to notice details others may overlook and subsequently take advantage of it. Even when given new information, he can act quickly. When not in combat, he is generally average in intellect but can be quite stupid sometimes. This is usually used as a comedic effect, making Naruto the butt of many jokes inside and outside the show.

Naruto, after gaining Six Paths Sage Mode, is granted unrivaled knowledge of all life in this world and the energies that power them. By using this knowledge, and his mastery over Yin-Yang releases, the foundational abilities for all Jutsu in the world. Naruto can perform truly miraculous feats of intelligence and manipulation. He stopped the fading life of Might Guy after he utilized the 8th Gate, which slowly heats the body until it incinerates into ash, by restoring his chakra nodes before they were destroyed. He also re-created the eye of Kakashi Hatake after it was ripped out by Madara Uchiha by utilizing cells from Kakashi's body and reconstructing them into an entirely separate biological function. Compounding onto this, Naruto is equipped with the ability to create Truth Seeking Orbs, structures which are noted to grant users truth in all things and utilize all five nature transformations, alongside Yin-Yang release. A feat that hasn't been achieved since the days of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki and Hamura Ōtsutsuki, with even consummate geniuses like Minato Namikaze and Itachi Uchiha being incapable of mastering all seven transformations.

Weaknesses: Using the incomplete Rasenshuriken damages him. Sage Mode has an energy limit (Using Rasenshuriken too many times causes him to revert to his Base Form). Can be an utter and complete idiot at times. Version 2 of his Kyūbi Cloak leaves him in a frenzied state where he cannot reason and differentiate friend from foe. In it's intial usage, his Bijū Mode supposedly lasts for only 8 minutes (Not the case anymore as this timeframe was extended throughout the war). Incapable of utilizing the Six Paths Chibaku Tensei and Majestic Attire Susano'o without Sasuke.

Standard Tactics

• Base: Naruto's fighting style depends on who he is facing, but it heavily incorporates the Shadow Clone Jutsu, which is almost always his starting move. Clones are generally used as support for Naruto, helping Naruto in situations where he finds himself to be at a disadvantage of any kind. Clones serve to distract enemies and discover their abilities, among other information that is then relayed to Naruto once the clone is destroyed. Combined with his intelligence, Naruto manages to deceive characters much more experienced and powerful than himself. It is common for Naruto to attempt to overwhelm his opponent with a massive number of clones, and if the opponent is too strong for that to work, he will use the clones as distractions in order to create openings to attack the opponent from. Facing an opponent with summons or large sized opponents would prompt Naruto to summon Gamabunta to aid him in battle.
  • Preparation: If Naruto is given prepation time, he can and will use Sage Mode, provided it's not restricted by the OP in VS Matches. Naruto can use summons like Gamabunta, Gamahiro, Gamaken, Fakasaku (Pa) and Shima (Ma), to help him during battles, adding more abilities to Naruto's arsenal, such as sound-based Genjutsu. Naruto can also change the battlefield to his favor, creating clones and using the Transformation Jutsu to make them look like rocks, woods or whatever else the situation calls for.

• Sage Mode: Being far more versatile and powerful in Sage Mode, Naruto would also start using clones, combining with various equipment such as smoke bombs, to deceive the opponent and create openings, which he will then exploit. Naruto relies on his summons more often in this form. He can utilize his summons to separate the enemy's forces, and disorient them with sound-based illusions, or simply overwhelm them with numbers. Naruto's senses are extremely heightened in this form, and he is granted sensory capabilities that allow him to feel incoming attacks, sense impending danger, sense life-forces and emotions, and detect targets and events from thousands of kilometers away. Relying on these sensory capabilities more now means he would not attack rashly at the first opportunity, but would instead wait for the correct opportunity to counterattack effectively. He also mastered a new form of martial arts known as Frog Kata (Kawaze Kumite). This greatly increased his skill in Taijutsu, and made him far more dangerous in close quarters combat thanks to his ability to use nature as an invisible extension of his body, essentially increasing his melee range, and the ability to ignore durability by doing internal damage to targets using Frog Strike. Naruto is also able to use the Rasenshuriken without any drawbacks to himself now.

• Kurama Chakra Mode
  • Before Kurama's cooperation: In this form, Naruto will use Shunshin more often than before to overwhelm his opponets with speed, intercept their attacks from great distances, or dodge them in order to avoid damage. He is capable of freely abusing varioust types of Rasengans, some of them being able to cause cellular damage and slow down regeneration up to Low-Godly. Naruto will also use chakra arms of varying sizes, which helps him create more Rasengan variants more easily, increases his mobility and versatility, and greatly aids him in combat by offering extra range and limbs.
  • After Kurama's cooperation: Naruto is able to use and spam Biju Bomb, even being able to use them with different sizes. Being able to use the Kurama Avatar, Naruto's durability and attack potency increases. Naruto can, and will be able to spam clones with Rasenshurikens to deal with his opponent.
  • With Sage Mode: Sage Mode makes Naruto stronger and more durable. He is able to attack with Senjutsu, making his attacks and his energy unable to be absorbed due to Standard Battle Assumptions, since Chakra is what is equalized, not Senjutsu.

• Six Paths Sage Mode: Being able to fly and "understand all things" makes Naruto able to control and manipulate his Truth-Seeking Ball, being able to erase the target and nullify energy-based attacks equalized. Naruto is also invulnerable, as only attacks with Senjutsu would work on him. Naruto was seen sealing an enemy that couldn't be defeated by normal means.

Sage Mode

Sage Mode is a state that can be activated by mixing natural energy with chakra, creating senjutsu chakra. It allows users to tap into the natural power of the world, granting new techniques to them and allowing them to be able to apply senjutsu chakra to their ordinary techniques.

After gathering an amount of natural energy around themselves, users can learn to draw nature's energy into them by mixing it with their own chakra, adding a new dimension of chakra power by adding natural energy. This chakra cannot be seen by someone who has not been trained in senjutsu. It also allows the user to enter a vigorous state, which can dramatically increase the strength of all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu.

Sage Mode Naruto inside Son Goku's mouth.

Kurama Mode and Kurama Chakra Mode

As with all jinchūriki transformations, Kurama Mode gives the user increased stamina, speed, and defense. The Kurama Mode augmentations are noticeably superior: Naruto becomes strong enough to push a fully formed Tailed Beast Ball through a multi-layered barrier with just one arm, neutralize the White Zetsu with a single kick despite its durability, and, in collaboration with Killer B in his full Eight-Tails form, take down the Outer Path Demon Statue with one punch. Naruto's speed is so great in this form that B had trouble determining whether he had used the Body Flicker Technique when he attacks Kisame Hoshigaki. He could even surpass the speed of a fully charged A, as well as the Third Raikage's extremely fast attack before the latter had any chance to react. Naruto's durability is also very high in this form, as he was able to withstand extreme heat with only minor burns, and withstand the Tenpenchii of Ten-Tails, suffering only minor physical injuries and losing his cloak.

The user is also able to create chakra arms while in this form, which can be used to improve dexterity and maneuverability, to give him a way to interact with his environment and opponents. Naruto used his arms as shadow clone substitutes in his creation of many Rasengan variants. He can use his hand in conjunction with a chakra arm to perform the shape transformation in the Rasengan, and multiple chakra arms to perform the shape and nature transformation of the Rasenshuriken, which he is able to throw while in this mode. Once the variant Rasengan are formed, Naruto can use the chakra arms to deliver them across long distances or, in the case of the Rasenshuriken, direct them towards their target. Initially, Naruto attempted to create a technique related to the Tailed Beast Ball: Tailed Beast Rasengan. However, he later developed a more effective version of this technique: the Super Mini Tailed Beast Ball, a miniature of the Tailed Beast Ball that he is able to control with the help of a shadow clone.

Naruto's first Kurama Chakra Mode. This mode uses limited chakra.

Naruto's second Kurama Chakra Mode. He uses all of Kurama's Chakra and can use the Kurama Avatar.

Like his predecessor, Mito Uzumaki, Naruto gains Kurama's ability to sense negative emotions, something that even the best sensor-type ninja cannot do. Furthermore, he is able to sense Kurama's chakra signature even when inside a chakra isolation chamber, as well as detect from other chakra signatures across great distances. The chakra of this form gives immense life force such that Wood Release techniques react to the life-giving properties of the chakra and mature into full-grown trees in a matter of seconds, either through contact or proximity.

Using Kurama Chakra Mode was initially a risk, as Naruto had to temporarily "bottleneck" his own chakra in order to access the chakra he removed from Kurama, during which time he could drain Naruto's own chakra. If Kurama managed to drain all of Naruto's chakra, Naruto would die. The shadow clones provide an additional risk, as Kurama would absorb every portion of Naruto's chakra even faster for each clone he made. In addition, Naruto also had to be careful with the amount of time he spent in this mode as there was a limit to how much chakra he could get away from Kurama. Despite these risks, once he became involved in the Fourth Ninja World War, Naruto deployed several shadow clones while he was in this mode and even managed to stay in shape for an entire night. Gyūki attributed this to the fact that Kurama had purposely stopped taking Naruto's chakra. After Naruto befriended Kurama, these disadvantages no longer applied.

To illustrate the above explanation, Naruto absorbs Kurama's Chakra and Kurama absorbs his.

Creating clones would make process faster, and Naruto would also die faster.

Kurama Sage Mode

After gaining the cooperation of Nine-Tails, Naruto becomes able to combine Sage Mode with his Tailed Beast Mode. The red irises become orange and the Nine-Tails' characteristic pupils blend with Sage Mode's eye shape creating a cross design. Naruto's envultory design also changes. While using the combined form, Naruto gains simultaneous access to the advantages of both forms, such as in increasing Tailed Beast Bombs with senjutsu chakra. The combination of both forms allows for greater power than either Tailed Beast Mode or Sage Mode individually, which allowed Naruto to hold out against opponents the size of Obito Uchiha as Jinchūriki of Ten-Tails.

It is a divine mental state granted by the Ancestor of the Shinobi, which allows one to understand and comprehend all things and their fundamentals. To acquire this technique it is necessary to have extremely select attributes, such as an unshakable confidence over any suffering, courage not to give up, and a spirit of leadership. It is a power granted exclusively to those who possess such attributes.

Due to the understanding and comprehension granted by the mode, the user learns to utilize all five basic transformations of nature, as well as make perfect use of Yin-Yang Release. Through Yin-Yang Release, the user can rekindle the life force of a person on the verge of death and restore lost organs. He unconsciously learns how to float, as well as acquiring incredible detection ability to sense even the invisible shadows of Limbo, so as to match his ability with Madara's while in his Ten-Tails jinchūriki form. Thanks to the higher amount of chakra than in the Kurama Chakra Mode, it becomes possible to kick the Truth-Seeking Ball with relative ease.

Naruto often combines this mode with Kurama Mode in order to obtain enhancements that allow him to access all the advantages of the tailed beast's power. With the exorbitant amount of chakra, there is no problem for Naruto to control high chakra-consuming techniques like his black spheres, even increasing the duration of Six Path Sage Mode and controlling the amount of sage chakra he can mold.

Rasengan

The Rasengan is a spinning ball of chakra formed and held in the palm of the user's hand, which is only known to a handful of shinobi. On contact, the Rasengan grinds into its target, propels them along the Rasengan's trajectory - either away from the user or into the ground beneath them - and at some point bursts, causing severe damage at the point of contact.

Big Ball Spiralling Serial Zone Spheres

After performing the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Naruto creates several Big Ball Rasengan. The clones then charge towards the target in horizontal line formation and slam their Rasengan into the target, causing a massive amount of damage.

Big Ball Rasengan

The Big Ball Rasengan is a more powerful version of the Rasengan. When Naruto first starts using the Big Ball Rasengan, he needs a shadow clone to help him form and wield it. He is able to wield it with one hand when his skill with it improves, though he still needs a clone's help in its formation.

Sage Art: Many Ultra-Big Ball Spiralling Serial Spheres

After creating multiple shadow clones with each of them holding a Rasengan, Naruto then enters Sage Mode. The clones then expand their Rasengan into Ultra Big Ball Rasengan and simultaneously strike the target, resulting in an enormous amount of damage, capable of even stunning Kurama.

Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan

As with the original, Naruto uses a shadow clone to help him form the ball. With this senjutsu version, however, he can have a shadow clone form a Big Ball Rasengan in each of his hands, which he can then pass to the clones for them to wield. The Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan is much larger than the original, almost being as big as Pain's summons.

Big Ball Rasenshuriken

By using two shadow clones and his Wind Release nature transformation, Naruto is able to form a Rasengan in the form of a shuriken. The sphere in the technique's centre is considerably larger compared to that of the Rasenshuriken's standard variant. The user can also keep adding chakra to the technique causing it to expand to enormous proportions. In this enormous version, Rasenshuriken shines very brightly in the dark. When thrown it causes a tremendous wind sphere upon detonation that can be seen from several kilometres away, and is enough to even neutralise a reincarnated Madara Uchiha long enough to be restrained, while simultaneously destroying both of Hashirama's wood dragons.

Frog Kata

When using Frog Kata, the natural energy used by the practitioner to create senjutsu chakra also surrounds the user in an aura of that same natural energy. This aura can act as an extension of their body and cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have trained in senjutsu. By utilizing the aura, the user can extend the range and force of their physical attacks. Strikes that seemingly or would normally miss will actually make contact with the target. Only users of Sage Mode can see or sense this aura's extension. Nothing else, not even the Rinnegan can see it.

Rasenshuriken

By manipulating the wind nature chakra of the Wind Release: Rasengan, Naruto was able to create four large blades, causing the Rasengan to take on the appearance of a giant fūma shuriken, with the Rasengan at the center remaining a perfect sphere. The technique emits an intense screech-like noise during and after formation. In order to accomplish this, Naruto requires the help of two shadow clones; he provides the chakra, one clone is responsible for the shape transformation, and the other provides the nature transformation.

Rasenshuriken creates countless microscopic wind blades that severely damage the body on a cellular level. It produces so many individual attacks that even Kakashi Hatake is unable to count them all with his Sharingan. The wind blades rupture all the nerve channels of the body, leaving the target unable to move after being hit. They also attack the entire chakra circulation system, which cannot be repaired by any type of medical ninjutsu. Depending on the severity of the injury, the victim may never be able to perform a technique again.

Rasengan Variables

Using Kurama's Chakra Mode, Naruto is able to create different types of Rasengans. Smaller, bigger, in different quantities, etc. His chakra arms help him with these techniques. He can create more than one Rasengan, he can grab the target and direct it to the Rasengan, and even increase the range of the techniques by stretching his chakra arm.

Tailed Beast Ball

The Tailed Beast Ball is the ultimate technique of a tailed beast, which can also be used by a jinchūriki while transformed. Tailed Beast Balls are made from an 8:2 ratio of positive black chakra (+の黒チャクラ, purasu no kuro chakura) and negative white chakra (−の白チャクラ, mainasu no shiro chakura). Users must gather and balance this chakra in their mouths, shape it into a sphere (or a conical shape in the case of the Ten-Tails), and then fire it at their target; Gyūki likens this to vomiting. Most users fire their Tailed Beast Balls as-is, while others may consume the ball and fire it from their mouth as a beam, focusing the attack on a narrower area instead of letting it detonate all around upon impact. Gyūki is even shown doing something in between, not consuming its Tailed Beast Ball yet still firing it out in a wave. There is no limit to how much chakra can be put into a Tailed Beast Ball so long as the 8:2 ratio is maintained: Kurama has shown to be able to create a Tailed Beast Ball many times bigger than itself when using even a fraction of its chakra. Tailed Beasts can also combine their Tailed Beast Balls to form it into a very large one.

In this state, Naruto doesn't gain any new arsenals or abilities, but he now has the ability to infuse his abilities with Senjutsu, which makes the techniques stronger and uses a different energy from the standard, wich is Chakra. This makes Naruto's Senjutsu-infused Ninjutsus unable to be absorbed during VS Threads, according to Standard Battle Assumptions.

Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken

This is an "ultimate technique" created by Naruto Uzumaki using the power given to him by the Sage of Six Paths. Naruto and eight of his shadow clones each form a Rasenshuriken that's been imbued with the unique chakra of a different tailed beast; Naruto's reason for using such a varied attack is because he doesn't know which type of chakra Kaguya Ōtsutsuki would be weak to. When the nine thrown Rasenshuriken strike Kaguya, multiple large explosions are created. Although Kaguya herself is not noticeably hurt by the attack, the tailed beasts' chakra contained within the Rasenshuriken resonates with the tailed beasts' chakra within Kaguya, preventing her from maintaining her humanoid form. Jin no Sho describes this as, "the most marvellous ninjutsu of all time."

Naruto was seen using two Rasenshuriken from this same technique on different occasions, like when he fought Madara, he used the Sage Art: Lava Release Rasenshuriken and against Madara's Limbo, he used Sage Art: Magnet Release Rasengan.

Truth-Seeking Ball

Those who awaken Six Paths Senjutsu are able to wield Truth-Seeking Balls. Hagoromo and Hamura Ōtsutsuki appear to have possessed this power naturally, whereas others may obtain it by becoming the jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails, or by receiving it directly from Hagoromo.

When not in use, Truth-Seeking Balls generally float behind the user's back in a circular formation, though two of Obito's float behind his hands, Hagoromo's float beneath him while levitating, and Hamura's instead form a sigmoidal formation. The orbs are always on standby once created, and users cannot create additional orbs after the initial acquisition number; thus, orbs that are lost for whatever reason cannot be replaced. In Naruto's case, the orbs currently under his control disappear and reappear alongside his chakra cloak, while the orbs he has discarded remain active. Clones are not created with orbs of their own, though the user can temporarily transfer them to a clone.

The orbs allow the user to nullify Ninjutsus and to erase matter, Ninjutsu and even space-time.
