- —Naruto Uzumaki
Hokage Naruto Uzumaki is the main protagonist of the Naruto series. He appeared in the 85th episode of Death Battle, Naruto VS Ichigo, where he and Kurama fought against Ichigo Kurosaki from the Bleach series.
History
Naruto Uzumaki is the son of Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage of Konohagakure, and Kushina Uzumaki, a member of Uzushiogakure's Uzumaki Clan. However, the day he was born, Naruto lost both his parents to Kurama, the most powerful of the tailed beasts, after his mother was kidnapped by Obito Uchiha, who unsealed Kurama from her stomach. In an effort to save the village from the beast's rampage, Minato sealed half of Kurama within his newborn son to give him the means to fight Obito in the future while sealing the other half of Kurama within himself. Unfortunately, this resulted in both his and Kushina's death.
For the next 12 years, Naruto grew up orphaned and an outcast, using pranks and mischief to get recognition. Where others would turn violent and hateful, Naruto chose to strive for greatness so that everyone would have to look up to him. Once he became a genin and part of Team 7, however, he began to realize how much being part of a team helped him from loneliness, and soon grew into a more mature man that desired to help people in his own ninja way. His one true goal was to become the leader of the Konohagakure and obtain the title of Hokage as his father did before him, which he would succeed in doing into adulthood.
