Root kakashi with a baby woulda turned Naruto into a menace lol
Imao fr
baddass*
More like Danzo's puppet
Sai with a ninetails and whatever experiments Danzo could get away with
Ong kakashi grew up in chi-root
“Naruto wasn’t raised correctly by the leaf” bro he wasn’t raised period, he was thrown in a room and told to figure it the fuck out
The kid thought that drinking expired milk was normal
Fr, bro was a hunter-gatherer by the age of three, going to rivers to catch fish because, more often than not, he’d go broke before he would get his salary by Hiruzen
Had my boy living off chunky lemon milk and ramen... that shit is crazy
Little dude would have probably straight up die of food poisoning if he didn't have Kurama. 😡
Pretty sure mogai was raised better
Honestly the fact that hiruzen didn't mandate a care taker for Naruto is mind boggling. He could have gotten anyone literally anyone to take care of him but just didn't.
My answer would be take a member from every ninja clan and have them live in a compound I created specifically to keep Naruto safe. They keep the kid safe, train him, and they're his "uncles". No one in the village better question it...
@@LupineShadowOmega This sounds far too logical
Only nobody wanted to because donzo was telling everyone he was the 9 tails
@@GBHD7414But i feel like that would all be negated if we told the person taking care of him he’s the son of the 4th hokage, and now a hero at the age of 0
Well there had to be someone taking care of him because baby Naruto couldn’t just survive in an apartment by himself
"He wasn't raised correctly by the hidden leaf."
He was raised?
It stands to reason SOMEONE at least kept him alive til he could raise himself... One-day-olds can't exactly feed themselves. If that kid in that one anime can have his own apartment at 4... That's at least three years of raising... It's not A LOT but some....
@@cameronjadewallace Actually with context clues it's safe to assume Naruto was in an orphanage for 2-3 years then got kicked out and fished in the woods to stay alive till he was 4-5 where he met Hiruzen who took one of his fish then now that they've met he got his signature apartment and allowance, why do I place it like that? It wouldn't make sense if he never met Hiruzen while having an apartment given to him by Hiruzen and having to collect his allowance from someone.
Tsunada, his closest living family member, even ignoring the Minito's mother theory she was related through the Uzumaki clan. It might have even gotten her back into the village.
How this Situation would Go down:
"Hey Tsunada, Here Take this Baby!"
"*Huh? No!* I am a gambler and i do Not want that kid!"
"But you are related to him!"
"My grandmother was an Uzumaki and that Child is the son of an Uzumaki and Minato. That means that WE share Not even 1/16 of our DNA with each Other. Calling us related or Family is a streach. Futhermore i am a Senju and He is an Uzumaki meaning i have my own Clan toncare about. But i have a solution for you. Find Minatos fucking Family and leave me Alone!"
@@ert8968 "Lady Tsunade it's either you or we give the kid to Jiraiya, and I think we can all agree that pervert should not be raising a child."
@@alannatherson7721
"Great Point!" *Takes Baby Naruto* *and Puts* *him* *on* *the* table."I raise the bet, 10000 ryo and a Baby!"
She would have either have gambled him away or raised his overall base stats from the beginning of the show.
@2stepjoey particularly chakra control. Naruto has horrible chakra control, even though he is able to use the rasengan in Canon, and being both a healer and a Senju, Tsunade would know alot about chakra control exercises. Healer because you need a lot of chakra control for that, and Senju because, while not directly stated, their wellspring of youth could be interpreted as large chakra reserves.
Let the children raise themselves seem to be a running gag at this point
They gonna be cold blooded killers in a few years, probably fine.
The Ramen Guy. Best Option.
That's who I was going to say he would have taken great care of Naruto
He kept naruto from starving to death for years. When naruto became hokage he paid him back by building him a 3 story ramen shop
Teuchi would have definitely treated Naruto very well
No joke the best option
Hot take: Ramen Guy practically did raise Naruto. He may have not been present all the time, but he was there more or less whenever Naruto needed him, like a parent should be.

If peak assassin mode Kakashi was raising Naruto he’d have become the monster the village was afraid of
Aaaaah arguable Kakashi at his worst was NEVER hostile to a leaf Shinobi, and would never take it out on them unless orders.
He would absolutely be destroyed within however since he fully believes he is cursed right after Minato's death and well protecting Naruto the very very last link to Minato is asking for Kakashi litteraly beggint Hiruzen to just find someone else and let him go on the hardest S rank they could find.
Which would pretty much be what canon Kakashi did
"the people need to know this kid has a monster inside him"
"What about his parents sacrifice"
"Shut up 😤"
Wasn't it danzo who leaked that
@@Anthony-ie2rm yes yes it was
Danzo Core
Teuchi. He was one of the few that knew Naruto was Minato’s and Kushina’s child, and he was the first adult that seemed to really care for Naruto.
FUCK YEAAAAH
who tf is teuchi
@@concept3589
Ramen Shop guy
Ramen shop guy had his own daughter
@@bgrego88
Then Naruto would’ve had a sister
Naruto would have been fine if he was left with LITERALLY ANY OTHER RANDOM FAMILY in Konoha. Wouldn't have to be a Nara, or an Aburame, or a Yamanaka. Hell, there's probably more than one Haruno family in Konoha. Leave Naruto with one of THEM, a real family that does real family stuff and nothing else.
True. Like, he could have simply had a normal Shinobi life with a normal family.
Like, I'm completely sure that being alone in that apartment held him back from being as strong as he becomes.
He didn't even knew what chakra was.
@@melbiamil5144that wouldn’t really work because danzo started the he was kyuubi reincarnation rumor as a ploy to raise him
@@kintouzumaki9306 that's true. I forgot about danzo leaking that information. But hiruzen could have at least sent someone to live with him.
@@melbiamil5144 Agreed
Mikoto wanted to adopt him but because Hiruzen was such a dumb Hokage and didn't allow the uchiha to help in the attack, now the village thought they were crazy and if the Uchiha adopted him it would be viewed as them wanting to control the nine tails x.x Hiruzen's incompetence as Hokage and letting his councelors and Danzo roll over him f*cked everything up
It’s almost a miracle that kakashi was anything close to a functional ninja
*human
@@ashmoleproductions5407ninja still applies here.
@@ashmoleproductions5407He was a root member. Not exactly a group you'd look for functional humans in
@@timelesswisdom.nah he was a perfect ninja, an unwavering and cold blooded man of war willing to sacrifice his life for Konoha in the name of the Will of Fire. A Functioning Human otoh is what kakashi shouldn’t have been after his early adolescence was filled that much war and trauma.
@@ManyTanks1 perfect ninja he was not
The first person that comes to mind is Shikaku, Shikimaru’s dad. That part in og Naruto where Shikimaru asks why everyone hates Naruto and he just goes “if you think he’s cool then don’t worry about what everyone else says” is such a Chad move. Also he’s one of the if not the smartest character in the whole series so he would’ve passed that along to Naruto. He’s a super experienced ninja and just an overall good dude.
Also Sasuke's mom. If I'm not wrong, she was friends with Kushina and even tried to adopt Naruto... But then Danzo made that impossible because that would mean the Uchha clan would get the Nine Tails.
Seriously fuck Danzo, all of Danzo's actions harmed the leaf village in the end. He can posture all he wants, but his actions nearly led the leaf to annihilation in his bid to protect it.
@@phoenicianprince4635 Not just the leaf. Danzo created Pain. Danzo had some Root agents disguised as regular Konoha Shinobi transformed into Iwa Shinobi infiltrate Ame, where they encountered the Akatsuki. The ROOT agents attacked the Akatsuki and the Akatsuki defended themselves by killing the attackers. Then Danzo told Hanzo that the Akatsuki killed some Konoha shinobi, and ordered him to deal with them on threat of war.
Stepping out of the fictional world for a second, I find it bizarre that kishimoto didn’t make some attempt to explain how naruto was raised. I get that being a lonely orphan was a big part of his backstory, but maybe Hiruzen could have hired a rotating team of nannies to watch after Naruto? You could say that they all kept their distance and were afraid of him or something like that. Just weird that we’re supposed to assume naruto was thrown into an apartment as a baby and left completely alone and somehow survived
Right like how does know how to talk or use a toilet?
It’s common head canon that he was originally in an orphanage and kicked out, this leads to the scene where he meets hiruzen and eats fish with him
@@turinturambar1688which is even crazier because who gets away with kicking kids out of a goddamn orphanage let alone the literal most important child in the entire village with no repercussions
@@karmaascendant3936I think he was 6 years old when he had to start living on his own cause everyone felt uncomfortable around him since most adults wanted to kill him or hated his existence since they all knew he had the Nine tales inside him and Hurizen decided not to tell anyone who Naruto's parents were. Dude thought it would be better to just give a 6 year old a monthly allowance and left him alone with Anbu watching to make sure he doesn't get killed.
He was probably raised by Anbu ninja in shifts. Like the Sand but without the murder attempts. Someone taught him to read, write, and maths. Someone taught him to cook and clean.
I just figured as he got older they just quit interfering so close. More like just followed him around to prevent the weapon from getting killed.
How about the Ramen guy who saw a six year old starving kid and just thought to himself "Aww, poor starving orphen kid. Here's a bowl of Ramen."
I would have freaking argued that the Ramen guy could have been a better father than the hokage did... I wouldn't even be against jiraiya raising him
Wild thing is there are a number of parents that straight up didnt discriminate on Naruto, & wouldve been great foster parents.. Like yeah they were too scared to hand him over to the village of opressed Uchiha, So Mikoto is off the table. but like.... Shikaku was sitting back lliterally teaching shikimaru not to see him any different for circumstances not his own.. Man woulda been a great foster dad...
& Fuck could you imagine Naruto's nuclear battery of a chakra supply fueling shadow techniques
To add to this, Shikaku is legitimately one of the best parents we see in the series. He raised Shikamaru to be a strong shinobi, and when it came to Shikamaru grieving over Asuma, he was there for his son. He encouraged Shikamaru to not just hold it in as he always did, but instead to actually let it out.
To a kid like Naruto, raising him with proper emotional support means a lot.
@@unfortunateimperial6019Yeah. I think Shikaku would have been the best option.
Naruto be like: TAIJU KAGEBUSHIN KAGENUY NO JUTSU
All them clones using shadow stiching
Shadow Style: Shadow World Rasengan
@@erinjohnson8737he probably could’ve made a shadow wind style rasegan that would’ve been more dangerous
Kakashi was out murdering with the Anbu for 10 more years before the other Jonin went to Hiruzen and had an intervention for him 😂😂😂
Kakashi could have ateast dropped in on Naruto from time to time, I can't believe that after losing Minato and Kushina that he wouldn't care about their son whom he had be guarding for almost her entire pregnancy.
I'm sure he did care, he just didn't have the time. Between being in ANBU, grieving, and likely having actual ptsd, he didn't have the emotional capacity or the time to visit Naruto. Visiting Naruto could've even made him feel worse if you think about it yk
isn't there a scene from a flashback or something of kakashi visiting Naruto while kakashi is in his anbu gear. I feel like there is.
For my part, especially with how neutrally he talks about Naruto compared to the rest of the village, you could make a case for asking Shikaku to take care of Naruto. Shikamaru ended up being one of his closest friends growing up anyways, them being adoptive brothers wouldn't be that much different.
Also the fact that shikaku and the naras were one of the few clans that didn’t immediately hate Naruto for kuramas attack on the leaf and they always believed in him too. Look at how shikaku talked about Naruto during the pain arc etc
This would always be my choice
I wanna know who took care of Naruto until he was able to live alone. Who nursed him and change him for his first 1 to 2 years of life?? Hiruzen could of set him up within his own clan and Jiraiya could have came and visited him once every few months for a few days and went back out to spy. They all messed up.
Odds are, an orphanage. According to one of the Itachi light novels, Hiruzen did successfully hide Naruto's identity entirely and the village saw him as an ordinary child until Danzo leaked his identity as a vessel and that's when the village started hating him. Until the leak, Naruto was just another, normal orphan to them.
@@nousername191 Thiis is not odds... this is actually EXACTLY what happened. All the Orphans from the attack were put under the Hokage's administrative care, which danzo didn't like very much, he ended up revealing the truth which basically promted Hiruzen to be more directly involved, and as soon as Naruto could live under supervision, yeah he wasn't alone just under supervision, he was sent to the shittiest appartment in the leaf, as far away from the others as Hiruzen would allow, hence why Naruto was quickly enrolled into the academy because this way he would be surrounded by Jonins and kids rather than being alone. But that didn't go quite as well either, because DANZO.
Regardless Minato is to blame really, He spend time sending Jiraya the Key but not the fucking details or request to foster his Son? REALLY and we are ignoring the fact that resealing Kurama in Kushina would have saved Kushina, and before you go but she would have died from the injuries... yo hello Kurama healing powers, you think kurama would be sure thing, let me just let my host die. No he would pull a Momoshiki and heal Kushina up... Noone really needed to die until later when Kushina could have transferred all of Kurama to Naruto, instead of just the Yin half (actualy i cant remember if it was the Yin or the Yang half but my memory says dark Kurama = Yin). So really Yes you are right, but complete mistake by our lovebirds, everyone makes mistakes, and in Naruto usually that results in a Kage's death.
It was probably random Anbu members like in the Sand
@@majinjasonNaruto does recognize two of those ANBU guards via their scents though.
Cat who I don't remember who she is,
and dog (wolf?) Kakashi.
Root Kakashi raising Naruto is just "Danso raising Naruto" with extra steps. 😂😂😂
I need to see a timeline where 14 yr old Kalashi raised Naruto now
"Senju Naruto" by "TheBeardedOne" on FFN and I think AO3, kinda has that.
Although, Kakashi runs into Tsunade and she raises them both really, alongside Shizune.
I also vaguely recall a story where Hiruzen paired off Kurenai and Kakashi and had them act as a married couple with Naruto as their kid.
Couldn't tell you the title or author though. Read that either around '98/'99 or the 2010s. Long time ago. Might still be on FFN, or maybe it got nuked. 🤷♂️
No one seems to be talking about this but Saskue's mom (her Kushina were friends) actually wanted to adopt Naruto and she went to see him in the hospital right after the Kyuubi incident but she wasn't allowed to do it because she was an Uchiha.
Well at least jaraiya came back after he left for milk.. Hiruzen was neglectful while being present which I think is worse..
@@narendrakadam3894let’s be honest every adult knew that Naruto was minatos son. He’s the only one in the entire village that looks like him, and his last name is uzumaki. Hiruzen should have treated Naruto as a hero for housing kurama and requested a family to adopt him, not stick him in an apartment by himself when he was 4.
@@jimmybob5541 exactly. It would have been pretty easy for Hiruzen to have a family adopt Naruto. Sure they would probably still hate him but at least he would have something to go “home” to. I would also like to think that after years of raising Naruto that the family might even start to love and defend him.
@@narendrakadam3894 My boy literally has a grandson. Ask your kid to raise the kid that is your personal responsibility. Then be his "grandpa" that pops by to see what he's up to every now and then...
I don’t get why Jiraiya escapes all the blame for this, Jiraiya was literally Minato’s chosen godfather for his son and he was MIA for most of Naruto’s life. Hiruzen being asked to watch over him I think was anime only.
@@donovan4222 I never excused him. He is still shit for being gone for so long but at least he came back and did something eventually.
Hiruzen: Kakashi, I have been tasked by the 4th Hokage to take care of his newborn son. I'm now delegating that responsibility to you. Try to not chidori this one, okay?
(Guy thrusts his head through the wall) EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!
"Guy, great timing...you can help him....I now pronounce you husband's. Have fun raising a kid together!"
They'd been the best gay dad's ever, how didn't this happen
@@MourningNihilist orphans gotta orphan I guess. Kishimoto really missed out on some really fun plot points.
@@ParkerClements-jb3cu”orphans gotta orphan”. Now that would be an awesome t shirt
@@MourningNihilisthonestly I think they are secretly a couple
Not only was he the child of a war hero, he was a literal walking nuke that hadn't it been for a random ramen guy and his teacher would probably have blown up the village, either for revenge of for being unable to keep kurama under control. Would have been interesting for Naruto to seek affection from kurama in his dreams or something
Damn kakashi having the worst time of his life then ninja president going your now adopting this boy so have fun as a single teen parent woulda been vicious 😭
The even sadder part is that Naruto used to have a rotating team of Anbu guarding him.
He even recognizes cat and later Kakashi as one of his former guards while they are out of uniform.
Which means they needed ANBU to guard a child and that said ANBU was forced enough times to have direct kontact with said child, that dense child Naruto could recognize their scent.
I heard that Sasuke’s mom wanted to take Naruto in but was forbidden to do so.
Yup... Politics literally got in the way of her being allowed to raise the fourth Hokages son. Sickening stuff.
@@fraydizs7302Funny thing is, Giving Naruto to Mikoto would *FIX* Konoha's fucked political situation, Since harboring the village's only jinchuriki is an extremely important job, That would get rid of the idea in the Uchihas that they were being Oppressed, The very idea which lead to the Coup detat and then the Massacre
Iruka sensei is the one who stepped up and looked after him
@@Cyb3rIsCoolit makes a lot of sense as they are more easily able to develop abilities to restrain kurama using the sharingan
@@evanelzinga282 Yea, There literally isnt a better thing to do with Naruto, It was literally the best soloution to all Emotional, Political, and Physical Issues at hand, Because Naruto would have a home and a family, Uchiha's would not have a conflict with Konoha and the Kyuubi had the most minimal chance of escaping, along with the fact that I would pay to see anyone in Konoha try to do anything to the Ward of the Uchiha head and Naruto would also probably get early training too
Jiraiya should've honored Minato and Kushina by raising Naruto after their deaths.
Pervy sage was too busy smashing broads and drinking sake while he travelled the world, not exactly the best choice for raising a child
Wasn't he also the village spy master, responsible for keeping tabs on Orochimaru and other s-class ninja, not exactly an ideal environment to raise a kid
He honestly couldn’t since he was basically a shadow hokage
@@Yagon-ue7xmthat's what I said 😊
@@anonymousweeb7424you know he was chasing tail during this time 😂
There are a lot of micro plotholes and weird quirks in Naruto that exist because Kishimoto liked stacking onto preexisting plot points without care of reproduction (the leaf having the Reaper Mask and Orochimaru never wanting to use it, Madara's plan, Shukaku not recognizing Kurama or using a Tail Beast Bomb, etc.) and Jiraiya's connection to Minito is probably one of them.
like it feels strange in retrospect Jiraiya not being involved in Naruto's life until the age of 10 just because if he was his godfather. like I understand he was researching the Akatsuki for a lot of it but also he didn't agree to any of his dying wishes.
The reaper mask thing can be easily explained, orochimaru had to do research after experiencing the seal for the first time and after that, infiltrating the leaf again wasn't going to be easy. It was because the majority of the fighting force was at war that he went to retrieve it.
Shakaku not "recognizing" kurama could easily be explained by the fact that he saw it was just a transformation and that the story was not framed from his perspective so we do not see his internal reaction to seeing someone using that form. You can call this part speculation but the tailed beast bomb would have been useless since gamabunta was shown to be agile enough to dodge the wind blasts which was faster and didn't require the charge time that the tail beast bomb needed.
Not sure which part of madara's plan you're referring to.
As far as jiraiya's approach, there can be two explanation. The first is that of priority, he understood that what he had to do outside the village was more important and trusted the care of Naruto to the village, similar to Minato understanding it was necessary to sacrifice Naruto for the balance of power and trusted the village to pick up where he left off. The second is the trope of letting the boy survive and then train him when he's self-sufficient, similar to how in Dragonball, piccolo left Gohan to his own device for the first 6 months of their training in preparation of the Saiyans.
No one in the village wanted to take care of Naruto because he was a demon for them. Maybe Sasuke's mother was the closest person to take care of him because she was Kushina's friend but no one will give the Uchiha the Kyubi again
@@dnhyp3rxstop defending bad writing
why blame characters instead of author
@@1607Adi_Manz start reading
At no point in my post did I blame any character for anything. If you did bother to read, you'd discern that I mentioned a trope that was used, which could indicate a sign of bad writing.
Even if he wasn’t the one directly raising him (because he was literally 14) it would have done Kakashi a lot of good to be involved in Naruto’s childhood. The dude had lost his entire family for the second time, he could do with some more human connection.
Low-key Iruka sensei was the closest thing to a father figure for naruto. He was still a child when his parents died when the village got attacked by the nine tails
It should have been Sasuke's mother; Mikoto. Imagine a situation where Naruto and Sasuke were legit raised as brothers. I'm sure holding their own Uchiha power and the Nine Tails as bargaining chips, the massacre would have never happened. I doubt they would have fully taken over the Village, they basically just wanted to stop being treated as second class citizens and being isolated towards the edge of the village.
I think both Fugaku and Mikoto wanted to, but Danzo's snake ass had an stroke and said absolutely not.
Honestly, they or any of the clans would have been the best choice, but there's no way that a**hole Danzo would have let the Uchiha take in Naruto. Why none of the other clans offered or were allowed, I don't know.
It would have provided an interesting alternate take on the theme of acceptance since the Uchiha clan was so opposed to outsiders joining the clan. You'd have to deal with the different ways the village *and* the Uchiha see Naruto, too.
Edit: And you'd have the Uchiha having to deal with Danzo leaking that *they* have the nine tails jinchuriki now, which you know he would. All while the village still blames them for the attack in the first place.
Itachi, Sasuke, Naruto as in one family would be insane…
It'd be something to see alternative universe where this happened, Naruto trying to be good and getting worse, Sasuke starting angry and trying to be better. Oh, hunterxhunter
Mikoto! If not her, maybe reach out to one of Minato and Kushina's othet friend?! Anybody! Are u telling K&M had no other firends?! Maybe the Naras or the Aburames? They are noble clans and have been nothing by loyal to the hidden leaf.
Maybe if Naruto was a normal kid, sure, but remember that our boi is the host of the 9tails *and* the son of Minato aka one of the most notorious ninja the leaf has fielded so keeping his existence as lowkey as possible was for the best. Naruto also would've put a giant bullseye on whatever person or clan took him in and I don't think anybody wanted to take the risk for a kid that's not even theirs.
@@20_foot_burmese_pyth0n Unless you are the Uchiha and saw the potential of power abuse by basically OWNING Kurama. Nah they would have likely dispised the kid and blamed him or rather Kurama for ruining their goodwill. But they weren't even told because they were under suspicion of being the culprits.
@@20_foot_burmese_pyth0nMikoto was willing to do it. She was only turn dow bec the Uchiha were under suspicion.
But if no clan was willing, maybe a ninja that came from a civilian family, like Sakura or one that didnt had a family, could ve been selected.
If not out of love for Minato and Kushina, it could ve been a a long term A rank mission.
Kushina may not have had many friends. The Whorl within the Spiral indicates she spent much of her life as Jinchuriki confined to a small portion of the core of the village due to the type of seal that was used. It was only when Minato upgraded her seal that she was able to move about the whole village freely.
A lot of people argue hiruzen couldn't have raised Naruto because he was Hokage, except he had 2 kids during his tenure as hokage. And was at the very least able to assign someone to watch his grandson.
So even if hiruzen couldnt have raised him, he could have done more.
Jiraiya accepted the position of godfather, him not coming back until Naruto was 12 and then throwing him off a cliff when he did, not great.
Kakashi, valid point.
It’s so funny how fans blame Hiruzen so much for this but Jiraiya somehow escapes all blame and is still a beloved character just because his personality I guess 😂
The fact that Hiruzen had Naruto drinking spoiled milk on the daily is DIABOLICAL
I feel like the ramen shop people raised him. They certainly fed him.
Mikoto (and Fugaku). Trusting the Uchiha with taking care of the Jinchuriki son of the 4th Hokage is a huge vote of confidence and could have been part of deescalating tensions before they got to the levels where they ended up
Tsunade was also always an option with Naruto being basically her last living relative. With Kakashi I can see it because he would've been a very good influence on Naruto unlike the other 2. Jiraya would just make current Naruto but a perv, and Hiruzen would've bern pretty buisy and Asuma was away or dating. But Kakashi could've made Naruto a whole lot calmer, collected, and not an idiot. And Naruto would've no doubt met Itachi more often which would also help him learn and be calm.
Whoever became hokage was supposed to take care of Naruto that’s how the job should have been chosen hiruzen came back and ignored the 4ths only wish
Hiruzen could ve assign an ANBU somebody to take cake of him. Or he could ve reach out to Tsunade. Kushina was part of her family, since her grama was a Uzumaki
I don't really think a secret police force is fit to raising a child😂
Anbu are killers not babysitters and Tsunade was a drunk gambler probably even worse a candidate than Jiraiya 😂
@@donovan4222 But tsunade had Shizune so at least there is that.
@@TheLastSane1 if she outsourced all duties to Shizune it might work
@@Chronal-Rendthe ANBU were already guarding him, one of them could ve taken care of him.
Raising the vassel of the 9 tais is not something just anybody could do. More important, Hiruzen should ve raised Naruto himself, it Jiraya was unwilling to do it or at the very least find somebody to do it (somebody from his clan maybe).
Do u really think Mikoto Uchiha was Kushina's and Minato's only friend?!
How about a more trustworthy clan than the Uchiha? One that has been loyal to Konoha from the begging, like I dont know - the Nara, Yamanaka, Aburame, Inuzuka, Izuna. There were options. Hiruzen choose the worst one.
I think we can all agree that Kakashi as a single father would be amazing
Not at that point in his life, later sure but I think he'd have a literal breakdown he was barely mentally fit enough to care for himself.
Shoot all the way into shippuden he is still neglecting some of his duties to visit Obito's grave that is how emotionally damaged he is.
imo it wouldve been cool to see one of the konoha 12s familys take care of him and he grows up with someone like choji or shikamaru as a brother
I always believed the Inuzukas should’ve raised Naruto. The boy would fit in perfectly with them, and he and Kiba would make awesome brothers
The Ninetails is just a bigger dog after all
See that would make the inuzuka relevant to the plot and kishimoto just couldn’t have that.
They should've let sasuke's mom adopt him and use the relations to establish good terms with the Uchiha,then they probably would've had the strongest military front in the entire series.
Ok see Karama had to be freed from Kushina in the attack that killed Narutos parents, If Naruto was with the Uchiha after that the coup would've worked either by freeing Kurama again or Naruto siding with the Uchiha while having the strongest tailes beast on command.
If Naruto was with the Uchiha the story of Naruto wouldn't happen. Hiruzen would die 20yrs prior, leaving no Konoha, The Uchiha would band together to fight or join Obito/Madera and Madera would have cast infinite tsukyomi unopposed or upon the ashes of the Uchiha village.. Story over in 2 seasons
@@bgrego88 Not really. I think you are forgetting the coup took years to build up too. Sasuke and Naruto were 6 or so when it happened. It was how the village treated them after the nine-tails attack that cause them to want to take down the elders and overthrow Hiruzen as Hokage. Giving Naruto to them prevents ALL of that.
@@TheLastSane1no, it doesn’t. Actually, it would be more dangerous to allow Naruto to be adopted by the Uchiha clan.

You are giving the ppl who openly want to kill you your biggest trump card in regards to power n most valuable hostage. Do you even know how military strat works
@@StephDLegend How exactly?
Hiruzen takes after his dad, Sasuke Sarutobi, very well, neglects and disregards his children or obligation until they catch his eye.
Kakashi was watching from afar and when team 7 formed he was truly there for naruto whenever needed
Jiraiya was just being the dad that went to get milk
Idk the third guy or atleast i dont remember
I love how Naruto loved Iruka so much that he asked him to take the place of his father for his wedding. Iruka kinda dispised him at first but Jesus the love he always showed Naruto was realer than most people in the village. If Jiraya had lived who knows how it woulda turned out the
Kakashi having the job to look after Naruto might just bring him out of his depression and make him happy
I have read a few fanfics where he adopted naruto while being emotionally unstable and suicidal but naruto helped make him happy and then when danzo got in the way and made it so kakashi could not raise naruto kakashi got broken and desperate to where he actually asked his friends for help
You've never had a kid if you think taking care of a baby at 15 would make your life easier
Kakashi was throwing himself into suicide ops for the ANBU at age 15.
He was super emotionally unbalanced. Hell he is when Naruto meets him again as an adult.
He is also 15!
Not great for a parent.
@@haydenford3794Ohh, do share the names! Sounds interesting.
He should've been raised by Mikoto tbh
That would've never happened because she's an Uchiha and he's the nine tails jinchuriki
@@donsamsey So? Other than Danzo,who had WAY to much power because Hiruzen was a fool and let him do whatever he wanted, no one would have really had much to say. Mikoto was likely his god-mother as she was Kushina's best friend (which was stil an Uchiha with the nine tails jinchuriki).
The coup only happened because of all the shit that happened after Naruto's birth and how disrespected the Uchiha felt (rightfully so they were intentionally being made the punching bag of the village by Danzo). But if they got the nine tails Jinchuriki they wouldn't feel slightly. Its a big honor, responsibility, and shows respect for their clan. So even with some of the things done they wouldn't have reached that point of planning a coup. Also Hiruzen would have actually had to go and talk to them now and then instead of relying on Danzo to tell him what was going on. It cuts Danzo's overall power in that situation in half.
@@TheLastSane1 the reason why your logic fails massively is the fact that the Uchihas were the only people in the village who had the ability to control the nine tails so it's impossible for anyone with a working brain to let the nine tails jinchuriki live with them especially after the village just got attacked by the nine tails and a sharingan was shown in it's eyes therefore making the Uchiha clan the number one suspects.
@@donsamsey No Uchiha was on the battlefield during that attack. So that would have made no sense to anyone because there was no Uchiha there by Hiruzens own decree through Danzo.
Your argument only has any validity if you consider what happens AFTER. So you are being blinded by metaknowledge you have.
@@TheLastSane1 well my logic makes absolutely perfect sense.
1. A sharingan appeared in Kurama's eyes during the attack which pointed to the fact that it was done by an Uchiha.
2. The person controlling Kurama doesn't even have to be on the battlefield as shown from the fact that Obito was barely on the battlefield as he was somewhere else fighting Minato.
3. The Uchihas are the only people alive who have the ability to control tailed beasts and they have a terrible reputation.
4. The reason they weren't allowed on the battlefield was because Danzo already suspected them to have a hand in the attack which was why he convinced Hiruzen to order for them to stay away from the battlefield.
Jiraiya was busy...with research 😅
Sauske's family could have done it. Imagine that alternative world where Naruto and Sauske are actually brothers.
It would never happen because the village would freak out if the Uchiha had a tailed beast.
It should have been Mikoto. She was Kushina’s friend and already had raised Itachi and was raising Sasuke.
But the problem is that her advocating to take custody of the Nine Tail’s Jinchuriki was that since she wasn’t uld cause a stir since she’s the Uchiha Matriach which would have been seen as a political move.
Maybe that’s why she was down to usurp the Leaf Villaige. Denied to raise her friend’s son and forced to see him being emotionally abused and neglected all because they are afraid of her as an Uchha.
Ranking and explaining every one who constantly wears a green jumpsuit
Kakashi feels like an answer only because we as an audience know he would become his sensei. Jiraiya was MIA and god knows if the Leaf even knew where to look for him. The 3rd had an entire village to look after with no good successors to replace the 4th.
As one of the strongest clans, it makes sense they'd hold a degree of rank in the village (surprising none have ever been in the running for Hokage) and they could take care of the 4th. Naruto would probably be raised by a side branch family if not the main house.
But really, I prefer things end the way they did in universe. Even if it is head scratching why Naruto was left the way he was.
The perv sage, cold blooded kakashi, or an old man with not enough time on his hands? All things considered, Hiruzen was still probably the best choice. The will of fire passed to him by Hiruzen is a core part of Naruto’s character.
The craziest thing about Hiruzen taking care of Naruto is that he literally could have just forced or paid ANYONE he chose to take care of Naruto. He is the literal Hokage what would they have done if he was just like “hey I got this orphan kid and I need someone to take care of him so he isn’t alone while I focus on being Hokage” he could have picked any Shinobi to pose as a regular villager and care for him, he could have picked any villager to act as a nanny or something.
I think if you'd zoom out instead of in at the end of each segment it would help your videos if only slightly. But great content. Been following you for a while now
no way zoom in is too funny
I think people are wanting kakashi because Minato literally put Kakashi in charge of watching after Kushina almost 24/7 when she was about to have naruto
Meanwhile he tasks a Anbu to follow around his own grandson.
And another jonin to be his guardian and tutor
I still say the Inuzuka or Aburame would have been good picks
Might guy would have been an amazing father for Naruto
he was also like 13-14 when naruto was born@@donovan4222
It's kind of sad to know that Kakashi might be the most likely one to do so if asked.
Whatever Hiruzen wanted to cook, it turned up baked.
Jiraya is irresponsible, so he probably wouldn't do it.
As much baggage Kakashi has, he would probably do it anyway, he ain't no stranger to hardship.
The only one that could give him the right environment is Hiruzen tho.
It definitely should have been fugaku. As at the time nothing was known about the uchiha massacre, fugaku is an obvious answer. Sasuke and naruto were shown to like eachother at birth and fugaku and minato being friends, same with kushina and mikoto.
It didn’t even have to be any of those three, they could have assigned any ninja to look over him similar to what they did with Konohamaru. Hiruzen makes sure his grandchild gets special treatment for being related to a hokage but not Naruto.
From what I understand, and I could be wrong, Jiraiya wasn't actually Naruto's godfather that was just a translation issue, instead Jiraiya was a "name conferring parent" an old Japanese tradition.
You are essentially correct. He makes himself look ignorant every time he says this because it's been repeatedly explained he wasn't a godfather and that the word isn't accurate despite being what they used for localization.
Plus, he didn’t want the responsibility of being a godfather anyway, as he specifically stated when Minato told him the news
It should have been Miato Gai! He's 14-15. His papa just died. As did his friend Rin. And his beloved Eternal Rival is spiraling.
They need a baby to fix this!
I agree might gai would of been the best father in the village to Naruto
@@donovan4222
Naruto: This is my dad. He is 14 years older than me. Dresses me in the finest onesies. Has an emo boyfriend has an addiction to punching things. He's amazing.
I could maybe see someone like Iruka, with him teaching all the time and being a ninja, he would have both been around a little (but maybe not enough to stop Naruto being a feral) and also given some ninja training. He also seemed to actually care about Naruto, which is nice.
Iruka was a 10-11 year old child when the Kyuubi incident happened so it wouldn't work.
I believe that genuinely, there would be 2 families in specific naruto would do well in
Jiraiya, I honestly don’t think would be a good caretaker, he was constantly on the move, and definitely had a LOT of issues of his own, like his perviness
But the 2 families I think he’d do best in, is honestly the nara’s and Teuchi
Shikaku has always shown that he didn’t HATE naruto, and encouraged shikamaru to be chill with naruto as well, and shikaku is just genuinely a good dad, he’d be a good dad to naruto as well imo, and imagine how cool the naruto - shikamaru - choji (and maybe ino) friendship could be if naruto straight up was raised with shikamaru
And Teuchi (along with his daughter) also never minded naruto, feeding him even if he couldn’t pay at times, they would be the perfect civilian family for naruto imo, and naruto could honestly have a sister, which would be cool
Naruto was raised by all three of them. Different times different ways.
All way too late/inadequately (for hiruzen for inadequate. Don’t even think they talked once…
@userasdf cap Hiruzen and Naruto talked and had a decent relationship. He was neglectful but to say he wasn't there is an exaggeration
@userasdf none to late but at the perfect time, when Naruto was finding himself and growing into a man.
@@userasdf Hiruzen Actually spent a Decent amount of time with him. for instance, when he gave him his allowance every month. or the several scenes of him appearing to naruto as just a "random old man" and teaching him about life. Hiruzen while neglectful (not entirely without reason) wasnt a bad man. and by narutos own words is one of the main reasons he didn't turn bad. you can check out the boruto episode. naruto credits him for taking care of him. also, hiruzen was effectively Raising the entire village. he spent time with a lot of orphans after the incident. and he literally adopted orochimaru.
Naruto at the age of four-ish literally told a lost Hinata "I have no one, but I still dont cry"
Aint nobody raised that kid but himself...
I wish a storyline where kakashi raises naruto
I think the better option wouldve been for Kakashi to check uo on naruto from time to time
The fact that Kakashi never turned evil is insane. Bro went through more than most of the series villains and came out a better person because of it.
What I want to know is who took care of newborn to toddler Naruto. The bottle feeding and general baby rearing, plus the basic motor functions once he would be old enough to start speaking or walking.
I heard of the first two as being the ones who was supposed to raise Naruto. However, the Kakashi one is new to me. In fact, I heard the third one was supposed to be Yamato.
As pointed out by someone, he set up his grandson with a tudor/bodyguard. Yet didn't do hardly anything for a jinchuriki who was raised without Familia love, guidance, and still bore the name of a group the nation's decided they needed to work together to kill.
A disguised Kakashi should have at least been assigned to keep a check on him and train him in some basic ninjutsu plus he had minetos sealing jutsu so he could have been helping his teachers orphan son about what he was and how to channel it, then as Naruto is assigned to team 7 he could slowly discover his connection to kakashi and then learn about his dad
In jaraiyas defense he did show up at the crucial puberty teen years and made him the man he is now
I feel like if we went with the options provided, a combo would have been best of hiruzen and kakashi. Hiruzen would have made sure danzo didn't do anything shady and Kakashi even though they said the root was busy. He probably would have been around more. When kakashi is gone, hiruzen actually would have quality time( due to actually taking care of more hokage stuff) to spend with Naruto, ensuring overall better care of Naruto.
Jiraiya, if he fostered Naruto from the time he was a newborn, Naruto would learn from earlier on how to control and manipulate Kurama’s chakra and have more time to learn basic ninja skills.
Mikoto Uchiha was the name ive heard thrown aroud the most for this topic
Honestly, shout outs to Kakashi and Iruka for picking up the slack with Naruto, when they were realistically in no position to do so. Nor under any obligation, since he's not their son, and they were literal children when he was born. That's why Iruka got the Dad chair at the wedding, he earned that shit 🎉
I read a fanfic where Naruto was sent to the uchiha clan and they didn’t find out about 9 tails till the crush arc oh and they got to live to see the crush arc
Two people that aren’t mentioned are Ramen guy (he practically did)
And Iruka even as just a temp caretaker you wouldn’t have him feeling outcasted just different at times.
Giving a baby to jeraya was bad idea considering his missions
Son of the yellow flash raised in the root by Kakashi of the sharingan son of the White fang. Boy woulda turned feral.
I think people forget alot of people see jinchuriki as the only tailed beast and not as their own person that happens to house the tailed beast. Honestly Naruto is lucky he didn't have more people trying to murder him. Let alone worry about being raised by someone.
It's almost like the full story wasn't fleshed out from the start.
One was the shadow Hokage/ always away on missions and didn't want to raise another ninja after the second war. Hiruzen had to run an entire village that everyone wanted to start a war with after losing a third of the village to the nine tails. He gave him a home, and had him placed in school and focused on keeping everyone from attacking him. Enough that Naruto seemed to be in regular naming terms.
And Kakashi was a kid.
But this is the same universe where children are trained killers. Naruto was lonely because of his father's generation, and gave him a chance with his own. Sasuke was also out here solo dolo for the longest too, which many Clans wanted them the way Danzo did
After the war I'm sure there was at least one family that would have been happy to raise raise a war orphan.
I read somewhere that in Japanese culture the role of a godfather is pretty different to the western culture, not to mention that a "godparent" isn't really even a thing... the closest thing is a kari-oya (a godmother-like social parent) and its normally a woman, plus even if you look at it from the Story perspective Jiraiya was still doing "the work" set out to him by the Great toad sage ( traveling the world, writing books and looking for a student who he will mentor and who will either save the world or destroy it)
I think people actually forget how young Kakashi is. When we first meet him he’s this God-Level character of ambiguous age(I originally thought he was late thirties because that was my mom’s age at the time I started watching Naruto), then you find out he’s a young 20s dude who was put in one bad situation after another with no time to catch his breath and a therapy dog who kicks him in the head and issues challenges to keep his mind of the Other Very Big Issues.
Even with that he never stopped looking after Naruto even after the 4th had passed
You forget that Mikoto Uchiha was the name godmother by Kushina Uzumaki and Tsunade Senju is a distant relative Kushina a cousin if you will Hiruzen should have recalled her to the Village to take care of Naruto after both of his parents were killed or should have let Mikoto raise Naruto instead of banning her from interacting and raising him
Kakashi was falling into darkness a child wouldn't help but having kakashi leave root would help him and Naruto would give good reason he'd have to leave root, but kakashi was also mintos student so kakashi could teach Naruto so it would be the closest thing to a clan, and he has friends who can help raise Naruto
His god father isn't father material and had to leave the village for his spy network, he's a also well known so people would ask questions about where they came from.
3 hokage was busy all day, well known so it would be difficult to hide him so people didn't realize he contains the 9 tails
I think the best case would be shared custody kakashi takes Naruto for 1/3 of the year
Kakashi could learn how to control the spy network so his god father can raise him for 1/3 of the year
And huruzan then takes care of him the last 3rd of the year and if anyone asks it's to support his Shinobi
People forget that he still had living family. Specifically his grandmother...
You’d be surprised how a baby changes people, it really might have been what Kakashi and Naruto needed
Minato Teammates if they're alive if not atleast have some anbu who probably watchdd over him help him out in a circle really best idea would be make it a C rank that Jounin and Up can do
The only three who should be on this list are Jiraya, sasukes mom (forgot her name) and iruka. I would’ve put itchiraku ramen guy but he doesn’t have the ninja skills to even kind of deal with Naruto. Jiraya because duh. Sasuke’s mom, because it could’ve strengthened the bond between the leaf and the uchiha, and sasuke and naruto. Who knows It might’ve even stopped the coup from being considered. And last but not least Iruka. After becoming Naruto’s teacher and learning Naruto’s true pain, he should’ve stepped up and adopted him. Could’ve helped him become better personality wise and skills wise earlier in life.
