I think it would be awesome, and totally redeem Kishi and Naruto, if this whole time we were just seeing a Kage Bunshin version of Naruto. He could have thousands of kage bunshins training in the forest somewhere, while he has one kage bunshin running around doing his everyday activities. If you're gonna give sasugay all these powerups why not hook Naruto up with something easy. Technically, it's not even a gimme powerup, because the training still drains alot of naruto's charka, and it shows how clever naruto can be. Alas, I think Kishi doesn't give naruto enough credit and he once again comes up short somehow.

I agree *shakes head*

It would be nice...I'd really like that...

I think Naruto is slowly but surely measuring up to sasuke in power, I mean at least I hope sasuke is done as far a powerups are concerned...
The cursed seal is gone, Sharingan is a problem as usual, but it's not ems, only MS...We can trust Itachi as far as that's concerned, I'm pretty sure whatever sharingan has in bay, Itachi saw, and countered with the naruto power-up...
Orochimaru's techniques are gone...(and that was a hell of a power-up if you ask me)
so technically Sasuke is going back to being an uchiha with MS...
Naruto on the other hand is growing, and now he will recieve training from somebody even stronger than the sennin...
The key to the nine-tails-power is also a great power-up for Naruto, so now we have at least 3 decent power-ups for the main charachter....

ohhh and the weird shuriken thing that he has not finished....

so, Naruto is on the right track...

the only issue is TIME....
IDK when he'll be training...unless the frog has a time chamber (dbz style) which would suck!!!...

why would a time chamber suck, it might be kinda cool.

Well actually Diss Sasuke isn't just an Uchiha with MS seeing that its SASUKE i mean you can't ignore the fact that if Naruto has something Sasuke doesn't Kishi is going to give the man something to counter it, but yeah i see where you're coming from

well... I would not like it because it does not quite fit in the ninja realm...I might be wrong...
but it's kind of strange-magical-unfair advantage...
it was ok in dbz, but in naruto I don't know if they can pull it off and leave the fans happy... next thing you know they'll blow up the moon...and asuma will reappear with one of those weird halos, after being trained in a small planet with several gravities or something along those lines....

well, at least Naruto won't turn Blonde....he'd go dark haired....hehehe....

I don't know, now you got me doubting if a time chamber would be fitting/cheating or not....
I would prefer a one time only toad boost with a million shadow clones without getting tired (somehow)for a week...

time chamber...mmmmm...now I'm not too sure......maybe they can pull it off

Nah... I want Naruto to beat pein showing that he did actually learn something for Jiraiya... he had to T.T

Let us not forget that his heritage will be discovered by Naruto relatively soon... I think the Yondaime would have prepared a scroll in the event that he wasn't around for his family etc. so he could still learn the hiraishin eventually.. and if oro/kabuto managed to summon he Yondaime on Naruto than we would have one hell of a battle.. battle of the yellow flashes XD

Yondaime + Naruto = epic love

Thats the stuff dreams are made from.

Would be sweet but I doubt anyone will summon the 4th besides Orochimaru.

yeah.. but kabuto will need him if he hopes to defeat naruto at all

I can so see Kabuto trying to avenge his master.
That guy needs to move on,

but who really knows what happened to him on Oro's neverland ranch.
