What Uzumaki Naruto said to himself left many people confused.
Who is he?
If I remember correctly, it should be Uzumaki Naruto.
Although his hair isn't red like most Uzumaki, he is undoubtedly from the Uzumaki clan.
Onoki: "Tsk tsk tsk, people from the Uzumaki clan are actually saying they lack Chakra?"
Fourth Raikage: "Hahaha, Naruto is hilarious. He obviously couldn't learn the Shuriken Shadow Clone, and now he's blaming himself for not having Chakra."
Terumi Mei: "If I recall, the Uzumaki clan isn't exactly known for lacking Chakra."
Luo Sha: "Not only do they have abundant Chakra, but their physique is also exceptional. Their vitality is strong, and their self-healing abilities are particularly impressive."
Senju Hashirama: "You juniors have got it right. What you're saying is accurate."
Senju Tobirama: "..."
Brother! You just admitted, in a roundabout way, that Naruto can't learn the Shuriken Shadow Clone and is using excuses.
Senju Tobirama: "Hey, Naruto, it's okay if you can't learn it right away. There's no need to feel ashamed."
Despite the discussion, Naruto's contemporaries began to look at him differently. What had they just heard?
Uzumaki Naruto wasn't just an ordinary person. He wasn't just the son of Fourth Hokage. He wasn't just the Nine Tails Jinchūriki of Konoha Village.
It turned out he came from the Uzumaki clan.
But born without Chakra?
Everyone's eyes turned to Uzumaki Naruto, who looked confused.
They seemed puzzled, perhaps a little jealous, but most of all, they were questioning why Naruto, with his exceptional physique and huge Chakra reserves, had been the tail of the class during their academy years.
They started to wonder if Naruto had been pretending all along.
"Look at me. I really don't know what happened," Uzumaki Naruto said, with an aggrieved expression.
He swore he wasn't aware of it.
Namikaze Minato: "It seems like Naruto in this world hasn't discovered that the Nine Tails is sealed inside him."
Uzumaki Kushina: "The Eight-Sign Seal allows Naruto to tap into the Chakra leaked by the Nine Tails. However, because of the seal, most of Naruto's Chakra is used to suppress the Nine Tails."
Case solved!
Uzumaki Kushina's explanation cleared up the confusion for everyone.
No wonder Uzumaki Naruto couldn't use his natural Chakra effectively—the reason was the need to suppress the Nine Tails inside him.
This explanation made sense to everyone. After all, it was difficult for anyone to manage such an enormous Chakra and suppress the terrifying force of the Nine Tails.
Yamanaka Ino: "So, no matter which world Naruto comes from, he's still the kind of person with immense talent, enormous Chakra, and a superior physique?"
Haruno Sakura: "It seems so. But Naruto didn't focus on practicing his skills."
Nara Shikamaru: "And Naruto doesn't realize his Chakra is tied to the Nine Tails' suppression. Now, he mistakenly believes he lacks Chakra."
Akimichi Chōji: "Looks like Naruto from this world is going to focus on refining his Chakra."
The audience was in disbelief.
No, Uzumaki Naruto certainly didn't lack Chakra.
Even at such a young age, he had already started focusing his efforts on condensing Chakra. When he graduated, the Chakra hidden within him would be terrifying.

Time passed...
Two years later...
The sound of something cutting through the air echoed in the woods by the lake.
"Shuriken, Shadow Clone Technique!"
...
Uzumaki Naruto stood silently, staring at the single shuriken embedded in the tree trunk.
After a long pause, he growled in frustration, his fists clenched: "Damn it! I've been refining Chakra for almost two years. Why is there still no progress?"
"Why is refining Chakra so difficult?"
"I can clearly feel my Chakra, but why can't I condense it properly?"
"Could it be my Chakra control isn't enough?"
Naruto vented his frustrations before sitting down on the ground.
After a few moments, he let out a deep breath, then smiled to himself. "I must not be working hard enough. I can't give up. I have to push even harder."

The entire ninja world was buzzing.
Naruto, as a student at the ninja school, certainly had no shortage of time.
But no one had expected this kid's patience to be so extraordinary.
For two years, he had been trying to learn the Shuriken Shadow Clone. After repeated failures, instead of giving up, he had turned his attention to refining his Chakra.
Senju Hashirama: "Haha, Naruto's time was truly amusing. He has a strong spirit."
Senju Tobirama: "But his efforts are misguided. If he doesn't discover the truth about the Nine Tails, he might become discouraged over time."
Terumi Mei: "Hey! Third Hokage knows the reason. Why hasn't he told Naruto?"
Orochimaru: "Hehe, the Third's purpose is not to let Naruto learn too many powerful techniques at once. Instead, it's about building Naruto's bond with Konoha Village. As for his guidance, well, that's for someone else to handle."
Jiraiya: ...
Jiraiya, annoyed, replied: "Snake, I suggest you stay quiet."
