But this is Boruto's time and Root is gone now. Just a few of the survivors instead of quietly retiring, were radicalized by their experience and especially how Naruto saved them and was a huge part of their rehabilitation. With Naruto feeling very guilty about never being able to reveal the truth about the uchiha slaughter for political reasons, trying to pay it back by focusing really hard on Root survivors.
But, I do think you need something bigger than Naruto's power to act as a stick for why the Ninja's will go with this peace thing. I mean the first Hokage was the strongest Ninja ever too and he wasn't able to stop the cycle of violence. Plus a terrorist group built off of rejecting the teachings of Danzo and loving Naruto like a patron saint make for a wonderfully complex villain.
I know it's a meme, but Naruto's talk-no-jutsu is no joke. Given some maturity, proper training, and a little ruthlessness or fanaticism, and he would be one of the greatest politician/cult leader on the planet.
Interesting. While Boruto, well first off I really like the idea he strongly identifies with his mom and her clan's traditions. There is not enough Hygua in him and too much Naruto for his jutsu
I do like the idea of grandpa Hyuga, recognizing how much he screwed up his daughters and wanting to have a normal/healthy relationship with his grandkids to try and make up for that as a second chance.
While still being a ruthless powerful and old fashioned tyrant clanhead. But spends time with his grandson and grandaughter so Boruto identifies with him more
Exactly. Loving grandpa and ruthless as kicker all covered by a patient and refined noble on the outside, acting as the role model for a young Boruto especially with how busy his parents are. But here's a love picture with Hinata and Naruko.
That's because it's an easy Americanized version of Boruto same reason you see Naruto shortened to Naru or Nait sometimes. Funny enough Naomi is the exact opposite. An American name, Japan adopted because they liked the sound of it.
Some super early fanfiction from the 2012-2016 period. And a few speciality fic's I've found, like one where Naruto was inserted into the real world when he was a baby with the fix exploring the culture shock of regular America and the Ninja World. Pretty interesting idea, had the potential to combine some of the better aspect of a self insert while keeping the core of who Naruto intact.
Pretty sad it died after three or four chapters. And while his name was Naruto in the fic, he landed on a small farm in the Midwest and while his adopted parents found a locket from Kushina and Minato with his name on it, they obviously didn't know any Japanese and quickly nicknamed him Nait.
