Scenario
During the Chunin Exam story arc, Naruto and his comrades take the Chunin Exam; a series of trials designed to test whether they are worthy of becoming Chunin, the next highest-ranked level of ninjas. One of the trials puts them in a forest in which there are many deadly creatures.

In chapter 47, while performing the forest trial, Naruto is separated from his group and comes across a giant snake. The snake attacks him, wraps him up in its coils and then swallows him whole.

Inside the snake, Naruto gets the idea to use his Shadow Clone jutsu to multiply himself, which causes the snake to burst open, freeing him.
