Sarutobi Konohamaru

Sarutobi Konohamaru  (猿飛木ノ葉丸) is a genin-level shinobi of Konohagakure after which he was named. He hails from the Sarutobi clan, and is a member of Team Ebisu. Many years later in Konoha, he officially now leads Team Konohamaru, which consists of Naruto and Hinata's son, Uzumaki Boruto as well as Sasuke and Sakura's daughter, Uchiha Sarada including Orochimaru's son Mitsuki. He works very hard to one day be as strong as his idol, Uzumaki Naruto and to become Hokage.

Background
Konohamaru was born to two elite ninja who served as both an jōnin and a Anbu directly under the Hokage's command. Konohamaru was also born as the Grandson to the late Sarutobi Biwako, and the late Sarutobi Hiruzen. He is also the Grandnephew to the late Sarutobi Asuma. He was named after the village of Konoha by his grandfather. Because Hiruzen was the Third Hokage, Konohamaru was never referred to by his name by the villagers, he was only called "Honorable Grandson" (お孫様). Wanting to be acknowledged as a person and not simply the Hokage's grandson, Konohamaru began trying to defeat Hiruzen in order to replace him as Hokage.

Personality
Although he's introduced midway through a failed attempt to defeat his grandfather, Konohamaru initially finds a certain enjoyment in his status as the Hokage's grandson. He is often spared from being punished for his actions, and will goad people who are unwilling to take a hand against him. When Uzumaki Naruto shows no restraint towards him and freely hits him, Konohamaru becomes impressed by him and declares Naruto to be both his rival and role model, variously calling him "Oyabun" (オヤブン) and "Niichan" (兄ちゃん). Like Naruto, Konohamaru tends to be loud, headstrong, spends an inordinate amount of time inventing perverted ninjutsu. Including in the anime, he even impersonates Naruto's kabuki ninja registration photograph when taking his own.

While most of Konohamaru's reverence for Naruto is well-deserved, some of Konohamaru's praise for him is owed more to his own gullibility and denseness. When he trips during their first meeting he assumes Naruto did something, unwilling to blame his own clumsiness. Konohamaru's Cloak of Invisibility Technique is constantly discovered by Naruto not because of Naruto's skill but rather because Konohamaru's disguises are so poor. Naruto encourages this to a degree, never refusing the compliments and never correcting Konohamaru's perception of him as a lady's man.

When frustrated or excited he ends many of his sentences with "kore" (コレ), much like Naruto does with "dattebayo". In Part II, Konohamaru and his teammates would still sneak up on Naruto. An example being when Naruto become the Hero of Konoha for defeating Pain. When Naruto was heading to the rebuild Ramen Ichiraku Bar, Konohamaru and his teammate were sneaking up on Naruto in person. But Naruto notice their chakra presence, and used tactics to get away from the group while they kept asking him for an interview so they can show it to the current Ninja Academy students that look up to him.

Konohamaru has shown immense emotional endurance, recovering from tragedies close to his heart, such as the deaths of his grandfather and his uncle, Sarutobi Asuma, in a relatively short time. Therefore displaying an ability to cope with heart-shattering grief that goes beyond his years. This aspect of his personality is likely in emulation of Naruto's take on the Will of Fire, as Naruto also had to cope with immense loss and depression at a young age, but still stuck to his optimistic and willful outlook.

Konohamaru also picks up a number of good qualities from Naruto, such as the realization that becoming the Hokage is a long process that there are no shortcuts for. This commits Konohamaru to his studies in the Ninja Academy and makes the job of his tutor, Ebisu, considerably easier. In his quest to rise to Naruto's level, Konohamaru masters a number of jonin-level jutsu while still a genin. He also adopts a refusal to run from a fight, even against superior opponents. In the anime, Konohamaru eventually moves past his competition with Naruto for the Hokage mantle, deciding instead that he will become Hokage only after Naruto has had his turn. Years later, Konohamaru becomes emotional at the prospect that he can mentor Naruto's son, Uzumaki Boruto, in the same way that Naruto mentored him.

Appearance
Konohamaru has short spiky brown hair and black eyes. He also has a small chip in his tooth. In Part I, he wore a yellow shirt with the Konoha symbol in red, grey shorts, and a long blue scarf. When he was first introduced, Konohamaru wore a grey helmet that had an orange frowning face on the right side, a red circle on the left side, and had a hole at the top for his hair to stick out of.

Eventually, he replaced the helmet with the pair of goggles that Naruto gave him after Umino Iruka gave the former his forehead protector.

In Part II, Konohamaru grew in size and wears a similar outfit as his previous one, with longer pants and a pale green jacket with a dark green stripe down the middle. He also retains his long scarf and now wears a Konoha forehead protector in place of his goggles. In some of Konohamaru's appearances in the anime, he is depicted with blush marks on his cheeks.

Two years after the war, his outfit consists of a grey/black zip-up jacket. While wearing dark grey pants, sandals, and bandages around both his arms. He does not wear his scarf at all during this time. For Naruto and Hinata Hyūga's wedding, he wears a formal attire.

Several years later, upon reaching adulthood, he has grown into a tall young man with spiky hair, while wearing his long blue scarf around his neck again. In the Boruto movie, Konohamaru wears the new standard flak jacket along with a short blue scarf around his neck, dark blue pants and black sandals. He also wears a simple black elastic headband and a red armband with the Sarutobi crest on his left arm.

Abilities
Konohamaru's performance in the Ninja Academy was rather poor, failing to properly use basic techniques such as the Cloak of Invisibility Technique and Transformation Technique. After meeting Naruto, he tried branching out into variations of the Sexy Technique, with no practical use. As a genin in Part II, Konohamaru began displaying aptitude as a shinobi, engaging the Naraka Path during Pain's Assault. During the rebuilding efforts of Konoha after Pain's invasion, Konohamaru was in better physical shape than his teammates, being able continue to fetch and carry building materials (wood, etc.), while his teammates are forced to sit and rest for periods of time, not having his stamina.

Taijutsu
Konohamaru has displayed a high level of speed and evasive skills, as shown when he could dodge most of the Naraka Path's attacks in their short skirmish. In the anime, he has shown some skill in taijutsu, being able to hold his own in a scuffle with Watase. During said scuffle, he demonstrated a high level of pain tolerance, as he was able to grab a kunai without flinching, although his hand received a bleeding wound from it. Konohamaru also has the most stamina out of his team-mates, as shown during the work to rebuild Konoha after Pain's Invasion, while Konohamaru was easily carrying wood, Udon and Moegi were worn out. As an adult, he shown noticeable taijutsu prowess, able to effortlessly block Boruto's assault and just as easily subdue him.

Ninjutsu
After meeting Naruto, much of his arsenal becomes comprised of sexy techniques he learned from or based off Naruto's. He did however with some instruction from Naruto learn the jonin-level Shadow Clone Technique. In the anime, he has also demonstrated aptitude with other high-level techniques such as the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique as well as with the generic Body Flicker Technique. In the anime, by the time he became a Ninja Academy teacher, Konohamaru became able to summon giant toads to aid him in battle.

Rasengan
Sometime during Part I in the Manga (Part II in the anime), Naruto taught Konohamaru how to use the Rasengan. His version of the Rasengan is, like Naruto's, performed using a shadow clone to control the power of the chakra, but is smaller than Naruto's (regular-sized in the anime). It was also shown that Konohamaru holds the Rasengan with a shadow clone the way Naruto originally held his Big Ball Rasengan. After hearing how he used Rasengan against Pain, Naruto praised him, and promised Konohamaru that he would teach him how to make The Big Ball Rasengan. Later, in the anime, Konohamaru learned how on his own to perform the Big Ball Rasengan, greatly shocking Naruto.

Nature Transformation
In lieu of his great talent, the anime has shown that Konohamaru has also displayed competent use of nature transformation, being able to use Fire Release techniques such as his uncle's signature technique, Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning. Konohamaru also became proficient in Wind and Yang Release.

Intelligence
In Part I of the anime, Konohamaru shows that he is quite knowledgeable about chakra and fairly skilled in making traps. After the timeskip, he is shown to be fairly analytical in battle, able to quickly analyse and understand the mechanisms of his opponent's technique.

Introuduction arc
Konohamaru barges into his grandfather's, office intent on finally defeating him and thus replacing him as Hokage. He immediately trips on entering and assumes that Uzumaki Naruto, the only other person in the room, is responsible. Although Ebisu, his tutor, tried to discourage this, it was only through Naruto's influence that Konohamaru realised that there would be no shortcut to becoming Hokage. Naruto defeat Ebisu with his Harlem Sexy Technique. This made Konohamaru realize of geeting the Hokage Title by force. Instead, it is a dream that would take many years of hard work and discipline to realize. Naruto told Konohamaru about his past, and that he has three people that acknowledges him (Umino Iruka, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Konohamaru himself). Konohamaru decided to make Naruto his rival, in which Naruto accepted the Challenge. Unknown to them that Hiruzen saw the whole thing through his crystal glass ball, and was happy that Naruto began his path as a shinobi.

Konohamaru was also going to attack Naruto, but Naruto told him that he had to go to the Ninja Academy to hear a Graducation speech from Iruka.

Sakura punches Naruto out of disgust and, when Konohamaru, Udon, and Moegi call her names for attacking him, she attacks them as well. While running for safety they collide with Kankurō and Temari, Sunagakure shinobi. Kankurō tries to beat up Konohamaru out of annoyance, but he's saved by Sasuke Uchiha.

The Third Hokage happens to see them during their lesson and tells them how important it is to protect those precious to them. When asked who is precious to him, the Third singles out Konohamaru (and the rest of Konoha's citizens), making Konohamaru smile. Later, in the anime, as Naruto is heading to the final round matches for the Chūnin Exams, Konohamaru offers to take him on a shortcut. Each of the shortcuts actually take longer and Naruto only barely reaches his destination in time. Later at the Ninja Academy, Konohamaru saw Iruka depress and worry about Naruto's match with Neji, Konohamaru told Udon they can escape Iruka, but Iruka told them to stay in their seats.

When Naruto returned after his two and a half years of training, he introduced himself by showing off his new and improved Sexy Technique, only to be told by Naruto that they were no longer children and should not use such techniques, only to reveal that he had improved it himself, and was almost about to use it when he was smacked around by Sakura, in turn scaring Konohamaru and his friends.

Deciding to heat-up the sexiness of his Sexy Technique, Team Ebisu goes to Ebisu for some help, thinking that it would help Konohamaru learn the Rasengan more quickly. Taking a few magazines from his sensei, the team takes their leave. Later, using the Transformation Technique to transform into a girl spinning a hula-hoop, Konohamaru, with enough practice, pops the water balloon using chakra and shows it to Naruto, who tells him that he doesn't need the Sexy Technique to learn the Rasengan and gives him a rubber ball by telling him to practice power.

Epilogue

 * Boruto Naruto Next Generations (Anime)

15 years later after the Fourth Shinobi World War ended, and now a full-fledged jonin. In the following years, Konohamaru continued to stay close to Naruto, gaining a similar relationship with the hero's family as his children viewed Konohamaru as a big brother. At some point, he entered into a blood contract with toads, growing close to Gamagoro. Konohamaru, attended Naruto's inauguration as the new Seventh Hokage. When Naruto failed to show up for the ceremony (having been knocked out by his daughter's Gentle Fist), it was decided by Shikamaru to have Konohamaru fill in, disguised as Naruto. However when Konohamaru transformed into Naruto by waving to the audience, he had a hard time suppressing his catchphrase.

In the anime, Konohamaru later becomes a teacher at the Ninja Academy. On the day of the entrance ceremony at the Ninja Academy, Konohamaru subdues Boruto after he damages the Hokage Monument, and reminds him from today to address him as sensei. Later while teaching the students about summoning alongside Shino, Konohamaru demonstrated the art by summoning Gamagoro. His performance gained great popularity with several of the students. After another argument began between the various students, Shino voiced his dismay at the students' continued bickering, Konohamaru noted that Shino's own fellow students had a similar squabbling back in the day, Konohamaru also noted that such drive helps one mature. This inspired Shino to organize a racing competition against the various students. As the contest began heat up, Boruto tried to summon a creature to aid him, unexpectedly summoning some kind of snake creature. As Boruto was too inexperienced, the creature began to rampage, attacking everyone, forcing Konohamaru to intervene and stop it with his Rasengan. Afterwards, Konohamaru began to wonder how Boruto was able to summon such a creature.

While talking to Shino and Moegi, Konohamaru gets excited when Moegi thinks Boruto will have potential to become a ninja. Konohoamaru thinks training Boruto and looking after him is an honor because Naruto ask them to. But he is shock when Moegi hears him talking about Naruto to much as a drag.

Sometime later, Konohamaru looks upon the Hokage Monument and criticizes Uzumaki Boruto's handiwork and about disturbing the Hokage on this important day. Iruka however told him that Boruto is merely acting out to get his father's attention. Konohamaru responded back to Iruka that just like Naruto, his former Ninja Academy sensei is too soft as well. Once Naruto and Boruto came to him and Iruka, Konohamaru scolded Boruto for the prank, to which Boruto didn't care which annoyed Konohamaru.

During a mission to capture a panda attacking a nearby village, Konohamaru then uses the newly-invented Kote to subdue it. While demonstrating it afterwards he accidentally destroys a farm.

When they report to Naruto, Boruto wants to make that Naruto isn't a shadow clone. However he tells them that he isn't a shadow clone. Naruto also insists that Boruto address him as "The Seventh" rather than "Dad" in his office. Naruto then asks how did the mission go, but before Knohamaru can answer. Boruto energeticly shouts that the mission was easy with his prodigious skills including that he doesn't need teamwork. Naruto tries to lecture Boruto with the topic of teamwork, even trying to remind the importance of teamwork to Boruto. But he said he could do missions with just his clones. Including that he already learned Wind Release, Lighting Release and now Water Release. Naruto then asks Knohamaru what has he been teaching Boruto. But Boruto tells Naruto that he doesn't know anything about him, and not to blame Konohamaru. Including that he never bothers to watch over him. Angered that his father is still spending more time working, Boruto reminds Naruto that it's Himawari's birthday and he better be at home or else Boruto will never forgive him.

Then Katasuke entered soon after to ask Naruto's permission to allow the participants of the upcoming Chunin Exams to wear his latest invention, the Kote, a forearm device that stores various types of ninjutsu inside of it. However Naruto refused since it did not show one's true potential as a shinobi and saw it as a sign of cheating. Since Naruto had forbid the Kote to be use in the Chunin exams, this angers Boruto once Katasuke left the office. He then leaves the office saying that this isn't the lame era Naruto grew up in. Konohamaru then calls out Boruto's name as he slams the door.

Konohamaru tries to enter his team in the upcoming Chunin Exams. Although Sarada and Mitsuki are interested, Boruto is not. He has a change of heart after meeting Uchiha Sasuke and approaches Konohamaru to teach him the Rasengan, a prerequisite to train under Sasuke. Konohamaru enthusiastically agrees and immediately begins instructing him in how to use it. After days of hard training, Boruto is ultimately successful. Konohamaru watches his students' matches during the Chunin Exams' final rounds a few weeks later. When the exams are interrupted by Kinshiki and Momoshiki, Konohamaru helped evacuate people from the arena.

At the end of the movie, Konohamaru and his students are assigned to the mission of once again capturing the giant panda that was running loose within the village. While Konohamaru attempts to handle it himself at first, he is forced to flee when the panda begins to chase him. He is lastly seen during the end credits.
