Flash forward twelve years: Naruto, now an adolescent, is defacing Konahagakure's village monument, the faces of the Hokages carved on the mountainside (think Mount Rushmore).IN PAINT! Not only that, but he's skipping ninja class to do it. His teacher, Iruka, angrily forces Naruto to clean it up, but then softens up a bit, because Naruto is an orphan, just like him.
