As I read through this, I realize that Naruto is so incompeten. Holy shit, Naruto is striving to become the best ninja in the village and he can’t be bothered to understand such basic concepts. Like I know Naruto was designed to be a moron so that we can get exposition on the power system, but damm does it make Naruto look terrible. After seeing that Lee vs Gaara fight, where we see the amount of effort that Lee has dedicated to becoming a great Ninja, it makes Naruto look like a bum. Naruto shows Ash Ketchum levels of inadequacy when it comes to achieving mastery over the power system in the story.
On another note, wasn’t expecting to see a woman’s nipples drawn in this manga, I do have to praise Kishi in his art in that panel.
