It is the 51st year of Konoha. The Third Shinobi World War has ended, and the Nine-Tails has wreaked havoc once more.
Peace is only skin-deep, and the currents churning beneath the surface have never been calm. Against this grim backdrop, the protagonist begins writing his own story.
He is neither a genius nor someone who transmigrated, and he has no illustrious family to rely on.
Along the way, he meets companions who share both hardship and joy, mentors with all kinds of personalities, and all sorts of people on his journey.
"Bonds," the recurring theme that echoes through Naruto right up to its finale, will continue to reveal its meaning here.
