“If you don’t like the hand that fate’s dealt you with, fight for a new one.”

Most children in the village didn’t have to face what the protagonist went through in his early childhood. As a newborn baby, he was alone and didn’t have a mother who could care for him and nurture him. He was alone, and the Third Hokage that promised to take care of him didn’t do a great job either. He was not as talented as some of his peers, and despite all of this, he made an effort to become one of the strongest shinobis of all time.

“People call me a failure. I’ll prove them wrong”
