To fight these vicious creatures, ordinary humans gained superhuman abilities and became known as "Hunters."

Whenever Naruto Uzumaki declares that he will one day become the Hokage—the highest rank a ninja can achieve in the Village Hidden in the Leaves—nobody believes him. From the moment he was born, the villagers have shunned and mocked him. Their hostility is not due to Naruto's loud personality, his troublemaking, or his lack of skill as a ninja, but because a monster dwells within him. Before Naruto's birth, the fearsome Nine-Tailed Fox attacked the village. To halt its destruction, the Fourth Hokage gave his own life to seal the demon inside the newborn Naruto. Thus, when Naruto is placed on Team 7—alongside his fellow genin Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno, led by experienced ninja Kakashi Hatake—he is forced to cooperate with others for the very first time. Through intense training and dangerous missions, Naruto must discover what it truly means to be part of a team and forge his own path toward becoming a respected ninja acknowledged by his village.

Two years have elapsed since the CCG’s assault on Anteiku. Tokyo’s atmosphere has shifted significantly due to the CCG’s heightened authority, yet ghouls remain a persistent issue—they have grown more cautious, particularly the terrorist faction Aogiri Tree, which recognizes the CCG’s rising threat to their survival.

Their leader, Haise Sasaki, is a half-ghoul, half-human trained by the renowned special class investigator Kishou Arima. But there is more to this young man than appears, as obscure memories claw at his consciousness, gradually reminding him of who he once was.
