Naruto Naruto's Regeneration

[Juubi]

[split] Naruto's regeneration

I read one fic where Naruto was pinned to a pole and set on fucking fire. And his "regeneration" meant that his flesh regrew even as it burned, apparently prolonging the pain. I don't remember the healing to be that strong ever.

Has it ever been properly established how powerful Naruto's healing is?

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

I wouldn't care if they weren't stupidly handled "what ifs". Even if Naruto was beaten on a daily basis he should be be mentally unstable and on the verge letting Kyuubi loose or some timid withdrawn child who's afraid of his own shadow. (Let us also not forget this makes Sarutobi "The God of Shinobi" Hiruzen appear like a helpless old man)

It just frustrates me when writers actually seem to believe Naruto being beaten by angry mobs actually happened and just seem to use the "mob cliche" as an excuse to make Naruto justified in being an asshole or more an amazing person for enduring it. Not to mention Konoha is a village of ninja if the people there really wanted Naruto dead I'm sure they could of been more creative then attacking him openly.

Also the "Mob" in chapter 1? It was was formed in response to Naruto stealing the Forbidden Scroll-it wasn't exactly spur of the moment or pre-planned.

Also I recall seeing Konoha headbands in the Chuunin Exam Audience who were applauding Naruto. So even in Part 1 we see people's views changing.

It's more that they had the mob mentality.

I don't remember the healing to be that strong ever.

It was when he was in 3rd or 4th tail mode. I think at least.

0Tails Naruto regrew a hole in his chest (and lung) during the Valley of End.

What you are describing is not really that far out there, depending on circumstances.

Very funny, they could have just as easily have been booing him.

I was talking about chapter 1. As for clapping for him during the chunin exam.

Being a Innocent child for 12 years = no change.
Beating the crap out of a fellow Konoha shinobi = He is such a nice kid.

Ah my mistake then to the first part and as for the second...

...that really doesn't make sense does it? (Unless seeing someone even the "Fox Brat" stick it those "stick in the mud Hyuuga" is okay by them)

Naruto's regeneration depends entirely on how much Kyuubi chakra he's pulling at the moment he's injured. If you stab him in the heart when he's not using the Kyuubi's chakra like Kabuto did, the wound is fatal (barring intervention by Tsunade). If you stab him when he's pulling at least a one-tail chakra cloak, he's able to regenerate a fist-sized hole through his shoulder in seconds - in that case the "flesh regrew even as it burned" thing could happen, but frankly he's more likely to butcher then lynch mob than be tied down and tortured at that point. And if he's pulling at least 4 tails, fugetaboutit - Orochimaru's legendary sword couldn't even pierce his chakra cloak at 4 tails, let alone injure him. Naruto is basically invulnerable once he's using that much Kyuubi chakra.

We've also seen Kyuubi heal minor cuts at the start of the Wave Arc.

I'm pretty sure the change of heart was more due to the fact that he openly used the Kyuubi's chakra in front of basically the entire village when he was fighting Neji, and he didn't lose control. After witnessing that I think they all started to think "ya know, maybe he isn't a dangerous ticking time bomb after all."

That plus the fact that he defended the village by defeating another Jinchuuriki a short time later, again by using the Kyuubi's chakra but without being influenced by it's will. It's pretty easy to see why they'd stop viewing him as an uncontrollable potential danger to everyone around him like Gaara was and start thinking of him as a loyal shinobi and an asset to the village. He proved himself and earned their respect.

Yeah this sound about right.

But before the "Naruto and Konoha" chapter did we the readers know they knew? I can't recall the chapter, but IIRC Sakura initially assumed it was Sasuke who saved her from Gaara till Sasuke corrected her. I think people may have taken that as "everyone else must have thought Sasuke beat Gaara too." Of course here we see Sasuke being a decent guy (despite being jealous) and giving credit where credit's due. If he corrected Sakura he likely corrected anyone else who asked him which explains how they knew (other then through a bragging Jiraiya who likely learned through Gamabunta) and it makes sense that the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki could beat the Ichibi Jinchuuriki.

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

That Kabuto thing during the Searching for Tsunade arc? It's because Kyuubi can't really heal a destroyed heart and just revive Naruto straight up from being dead is what I remember.

Can we be sure that was because of the Kyuubi? I seem to recall Kakashi thinking it was, but years later it was revealed that all Uzumaki have unusually powerful vitality and longevity, to the point that Kushina survived the otherwise lethal process of having her bijuu extracted. So it would seem that Naruto should also have a natural healing factor thanks to his clan heritage.

I have a hard time buying that anyone could mistakenly believe that Sasuke defeated Gaara considering that the fight involved Naruto summoning the boss of the toad summon tribe and transforming them both into a near perfect replica of the Kyuubi minus eight tails. Most of the Konoha shinobi still fighting could probably see the giant kaiju battle even from as far away as the village. And all the sensor-nin would certainly have been able to sense Naruto/Kurama's chakra.

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

And the anti-Jiraiya cameras at the hot springs probably caught some of it on film as well.

 

[Knyght]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

Random Thought: We've seen that Naruto heals ridiculously fast when using the Kyuubi's chakra and that Naruto was able to supercharge the Shinobi Alliance by handing out chakra injections. Could Kurama's chakra not actually be healing Naruto but supercharging his natural healing factor?

Though bijuu chakra probably does that for everyone anyway given how Version 2 works, only Naruto might heal faster and capable of it over a longer duration.

 

[half baked cat]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

The source of his healing is unknown. It could be due to Kyubi, it could be natural, it could be combo. No one truly knows at the moment.

 

[Shirotsume]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

Do we know how far away from Konoha they where fighting?

Nothing has really indicated that of Naruto having any kind of non-Kyuubi healing though.

Err... what manga have you been reading?

There's been more proof, iirc, for kyuubi not doing anything to heal him, and it all being his Uzumaki body.

Where? I can't remember a single time when his healing has not been linked to Kyuubi.

 

[Juubi]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

This is a Naruto that has not accessed Kyuubi's chakra at all. They burned him alive when he was about five in that fic. He didn't have any Kyuubi chakra. The only thing that saved him was an apparently Wolverine-like regeneration rate sans Kyuubi's involvement.

 

[Altered Nova]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

All evidence that Naruto has a healing factor is circumstantial. His mom had one, and we're told his clan was famous for it among other things. But he's always had the Kyuubi sealed inside him and other characters have attributed his healing to the Kyuubi, so it's impossible to know one way or the other.

I'm starting to lean towards it being a bit of both, as Knight suggested. We know all the bijuu can grant their jinchuuriki regenerative powers when using their Version 2 chakra cloaks, but no other jinchuuriki has displayed a healing factor without using a chakra cloak or to the same degree as Naruto has.

His mom did not have it. Uzumaki clan was famed for their longevity and strong life force, not healing.

That Kushina could live awhile after Kyuubi being extracted had nothing to do with healing. If it did, she would have gotten better, but she was still dying.It was the strong life force thingy if anything that kept her alive for awhile longer.

EDIT: When has Naruto healed fast without chakra cloack? Well, besides after the Demon Brother incident, but I link that to Kyuubi because of how Kakashi reacted.

The Rasengan training. He was training so hard he was scorching his hands with his chakra, but to Shizune's shock he was fine the very next morning when she was expecting him to be out of it for days.

 

[Amberion]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

I thought her shock was more to do with him being up and running, and not dead tired on his feat.

Thinking back to the burns, wouldn't it make more sense that Shizune healed them? She is a medic after all.

There was also those cuts from the chunin exam that he accredited to Hinata's salve, but Kakashi thought otherwise

 

[Wildfeather]

RE: Funny Naruto Pics

Or you know the time he stabbed right through his hand and it was healed within the same day...

it was more like healed within a minute or two if i remember right

That is probably the best example. And got only three counter points to it that I can really use.
1. I still get the feeling from Kakashi that is a kyuubi thing.
2. Uzumaki clan wasn't even thought up besides Naruto at that point.
3. The healing cream is just that good. His wound didn't heal on the walk up to the stand, but just after he applied it.

Anyway, I still wonder where you all got that Uzumaki clan had healing as a special trait? Besides Karin that is.

It's pretty much because of Karin. Before her I assumed that the Uzumaki having "high vitality and longevity" just meant they had lots of stamina and lived to be really old. But then she came along and there were two Uzumaki who done heal good, and healing factors does fit in with that whole "strong body" thing the Senju and Uzumaki had going for them as descendants of the younger son of the Sage.
