kisame run 

Details of Naruto's past are explained in this episode, including how he became the Kyubi (9 tailed fox beast) and why everyone looks at him so coldly. There is also a hint to who Naruto's father is, something that won't be disclosed until way farther on into the manga series. All in all, you are given a pretty good idea as to why life has been so hard for Naruto.
Winding down towards the end of this episode, Naruto realizes that him and Konohamaru aren't so different. Konohamaru is looked at differently by the entire village just because he is the grandson of the Third Hokage. The episode ends with Konohamaru announcing that him and Naruto are now rivals since they both desire to become Hokage. This sudden change from friends to rivals is also due to Naruto saying that Konohamaru will have to beat him to become Hokage. Either way, Konohamaru will look up to Naruto many episodes into the future, and they will form a relationship that will last throughout the entire anime and manga series
