Did Hiruzen raise Naruto as a baby?

[TheCCV]

I've wondered this for the longest time.

His parents died like, a day after his birth. The Sarutobi woman who took after him and died not too long after them, and for all we know, Naruto was just left in that valley after all the drama died down.

So I just wonder, did Brother Hiruzen take Naruto under his wing as a baby until he was old enough to take care of himself? Or did Baby Naruto crawl his way back to the village? Forgive me if this has already been covered, I just missed it.

No, Naruto raised himself. He ate worms as a baby and when he got a little older, he stole food and an apartment.

[mikeeozua]

I think so, that brings another question, who took care of Sasuke and Kakashi when they were young?

[-Reaper-]

Nine Tails was babysitting for him
Feeding him chakra and keeping him warm with fire style

[-Haku Yuki-]

third hokage was tehre as minato died and most likely carried Naruto back gave him a rent free room and toke care of his food jirya may have even helped at first

:rofl:
no, hiruzen was just outside the barrier when sealing was taking place

[Strata Spartan]

Hiruzen did raise Naruto, but not in a real loving manner because he was a Jinchuriki.

[★Sir Derp Obito]

I think Hiruzen merely payed his bills... and noodles.

[Ldude]

Well, Hiruzen did visit him a lot, and he was there when Naruto's parents died... I think he did.

Brother Sasuke's situation was different, he was orphaned at around 10 or 11, I think. He was old enough to own his own place and raise himself. The Konoha medic center probably gave him some cash too.

I don't think Hiruzen minded him being a Jinchuuriki, Naruto was just one really irritating kid.

sasuke was old enough to take care of himself the thirrd hokage most likely made living arrangements for him due to his own involment in the uchiha clans death, kakashi might have been the same. the real question is how did naruto get any milk? his mom was dead and a baby needs milk to survive ( pretty sure it has to be breast milk but i'm not sure) might explain why he's so short

Naruto survived on ramen bro..... even as a baby

[★Sir Derp Obito]

Didn't Iruka babysit for him?

No,that was for takeing care of kid naruto when he was at the academy i think

I'm pretty sure Brother Hiruzen was one of the few understanding members who always cared for Brother Naruto, like Brother Iruka. Didn't he see Brother Hiruzen as an uncle or something?

Also, in his flashbacks of people who cared dearly for him, Brother Hiruzen is always there too. I think he cared for him.

The milk doesn't necessarily have to come from brests, it's just more natural way of raising the baby. Cow milk is effective as well.

Baby Naruto was young pimpin.

Pimping... cows?

[jiraiya the toad sage]

i reckon he was in an orphanage as a baby

Sasuke had parents until he was like 5-10 (I forget when the massacre happened) from there on he was old enough to take care of himself.
Kakashi was like 5 when his dad died and he was a genius (he became a chuunin at the age of 6) so I'm sure he was able to take care of himself as well.

I can only imagine if children today were as capable as taking care of themselves as those 2.

[swagking]

yes

They don't even need that. Formula works too.

[Merita]

Maybe Hiruzen paid a wet nurse and babysitters to Naruto.
