As Naruto struggles with the temptations of the Nine-Tailed Fox within him, his first ninja mission proves to be a turbulent trial for his morality. His hopes of impressing others enough to become Hokage and ascend the shinobi hierarchy are dampened when he somewhat chooses to work for Gato, the world’s largest drug manufacturer in the world. Upon meeting Zabuza and Haku, defending their homeland against Gato’s systematic addiction over the Land of Waves, Naruto is fully confronted with the horrors of shinobi world…and his identity as a jinchurriki.
