Going to take it back to the first chapter where the potential beginned. There’s a part were he caught the Hokage off guard and knocked him out with his sexy no jutsu for about half the day not a big feat if you think about it, but big either considering he wasn’t even out of the academy yet but then again sexy no jutsu have that effect on most just not half of a day. Then after taking the secret scroll he learned to made over a thousand clones using a forbidden technique something nobody at his age should be able to do. The fact that he made that many plus if we take into account what people said about his CC at the time then he wasted half of his chakra, and right before all of this he was training before iruka find him, and on top of all that he beat a chunin.

That’s kind of a big feat when you realize all the chakra he wasted and show no signs of fatigue, and because it’s probably no one you could put there at that point in time [only talking about naruto’s era] around his age that would of came out with the win excluding rock lee/Neji/sasuke. We should take into account that they all had some type of training and or something to go off of were as naruto had none of that being a outcast from the very beginning.

Skipping ahead up to the CE between the fight with him and Neji it was a good one, and naruto showed good battle strategy getting Neji to fall for his clone making him think he was staying in the back because he was worried about his chakra points. It didn’t work he did surprises Neji though which made him use rotation, but anyways I feel like the biggest moment in that fight was when he broke through Neji ultimate defense

Knocking the byakugan out of Neji and setting him for another spectacular strategy the famous uppercut, and once again showing you that naruto got a little battle smarts. I skipped a couple feats to get here, but this was impressive one considering how everyone was acting like Neji couldn’t be beat especially by a genin better yet naruto.

Now skipping a few chapters ahead to Naruto vs Gaara were once again naruto showed more of his battles smarts





Weakening Gaara and preventing him from being able to move which lead to this





Then he went on and did a summoning jutsu that again someone his age shouldn’t be able to do, and did all this after the fight with Neji feat no one else his age I can see doing.

Skip some chapters ahead after he learns the rasengan he ends up in a battle with kabuto who handed it to tsunade and shizune and wins after receiving a deadly blow from kabuto, but still makes it after landing his first ever rasengan on someone that he learned an like week.

Skip up to the Sasuke vs Naruto fight one of the best till this day in my opinion. It was a few ways I felt like Naruto could have beat sasuke but he didn’t so no need to talk about that. The thing I want to talk about here is how end up with a arm through his body, and in the next panel it was nothing there healing feats shown by the lights of tsunade in war arc seeing how it punctured his long and went right through his chest,

and the other one in the center of his chest, but sasuke pulled that blow before it hit or he couldn’t pierce naruto with KM0 active. I like to look at it as he still care at the time so couldn’t carry out with the attack lol.

This is some of the things that made naruto stand out in part 1 and he did all of this without any training from no one really, jiraiya showed him how to do some jutsu but he never really never trained him disappeared for 2 years for the basics and fact the only one who gave him a little training was Pa late on in life. Guess what training and the level of talent he had would of really made him too OP so it was a good way to balance out the story.

Chakra-wise, yes, but when it comes to battle smarts, he barely reached Chuunin-level.

Waste of a read... All the things Naruto displayed were attained by rigorous training opposed to what you think. The reason Naruto progressed as he did was due to , and the reason he could train to the he did was because of his chakra reserves and Naruto was not all that powerful; Kurama's influence just allowed him to keep up with the best of the best.

It's not as though he was a prodigy either. The guy still sucked ass at creating clones despite making literal thousands and couldn't form Rasengan with one hand until the War Arc was ending. His chakra simply allowed him to brute force things, and he ended up lacking because of it.

Gaara was able to tap into more biju chakra than Naruto did despite Naruto having more latent power than everyone else in part 1. Also Naruto lost to Orochimaru.

This is true. Naruto had the reserve in part one and a “get out of jail” free card with Kurama, but even then, the likes of Kimimaru and Orochimaru rendered that useless.

Hell even a drunk Tsunade beat him with a thump to the forehead. Takes more than just power to be the strongest.

Not exactly the strongest but he was strong. Kurama also helped him in all that, and when it comes to battle tactics he wasnt that good either.

I think something important to note is that by the time naruto fought gaara, naruto summoned gamabunta without using kuramas chakra. Everything naruto did against gaara was his own strength until the very end when naruto was standing on top of the one tails and was being restrained by gaaras sand

You're mistaken Naruto never had the chakra reserves to summon Gamabunta. He drew on the Kyubi's chakra to first summon it during Jiraiya's training and he drew on Kurama's chakra prior to summoning against Gaara. Also his eye has a slit confirming he was under Kurama's chakra influence.

Jiraiya said he could only summon a big toad in general, let alone Gamabunta, with the Kyuubi's chakra.



Against Gaara, Naruto even stated that he ran out of chakra from creating clones.



Yet he still summoned him. How? The Kyuubi ofcourse. He even had it's eye.



Minato set the seal so that the Kyuubi's chakra leaked out and combined with Naruto's to increase his already large stamina and chakra reserves.



Furthermore he received advanced healing (in/out of battle) This/the next , likewise with the following link.



During his Rasengan training, Tsunade - the best medic nin in the world, stated that Naruto would be unconscious for over a day due to training til exhaustion so much. Yet surprisingly, he fully recovered after a nights sleep, and Naruto said this always happens. Shizune contributed this to the Kyuubi. This/the next page.



Naruto's "base" is actually his + the Kyuubi's chakra.

Same with Obito vs Minato, Sasuke vs Kakashi, and Hidan vs. Shikamaru

The naruto series proves that just because you have the most chakra, doesn't mean you're going to win the battle with more massive dangerous jutsus.

That's why people like Kabuto, Itachi, Shikamaru, Kakashi, and Sakumo are very dangerous when they have a little bit of power boost because they can use any circumstances to their advantage. So Kishi had to shorten most of their stamina so that they won't be too much for everyone.

Well that post says Neji nor Naruto haves what it takes to be a chunin, but in most battle naruto usually have some type of tactical diversion to get past and obstacle. It my not be the best or smartest way, but he catches the enemy off guard more times then none.

Well you read it so it couldn’t of been that bad lol.... I never said naruto didn’t train though. If you go back I said he never really had no one to train him and tell him what he was doing wrong and how to get it right. Kurama is naruto’s powers in my eyes, and the fact that he was able to keep up with the best of the best is crazy considering he never had proper training at that age unlike most people he fought against. Kurama messed with his concentration, and you needed extreme concentrate to make a rasengan something he couldn’t do with kurama messing up his CC

I feel like he was the strongest up and till vote 1 at that point sasuke and him was a tie, you sleeping on his battle tactics when he did use them it always got the job done.
