Naruto: Starting from the Root

Can you please stop thinking about going home all the time? Going home, going home, going home. After more than a decade of experience, shouldn't your heart have grown cold and you've learned to mature? If you had only been here a few days ago and encountered this dark world, wanting to go home to your mother would be understandable. This cruel world is unbearable for you.

The author might find it interesting if any clone developed self-awareness, but readers have already seen through its capabilities, which is a major flaw.

What is the protagonist's actual strength? His stats panel looks very strong, but he can't beat any Kage-level powerhouses. What exactly is a Kage-level powerhouse?

With Dust Release, Ice Release, Flying Thunder God Technique, Genjutsu, and Mind Control, you have so many techniques, yet you still struggle to fight anyone. Ice Release is already enough for an elite Jonin; add Dust Release and you're a Kage-level ninja! And then you have Flying Thunder God Technique and Genjutsu—it's just so frustrating.

Good grief, the protagonist is already being considered to have "White Fang's" potential in his very first mission. Author, what do you take White Fang for, some kind of cabbage? Frankly, the protagonist's performance in his first mission within Root was completely ordinary! It was just the most basic quality a Root ninja should have, nothing special.

I really like this kind of dark and gritty novel about the Dark Side; it's well-written and has a modern special forces feel to it. It would be better if the protagonist was a bit more cold-blooded, not a saint.

Trash. The protagonist is nothing special; his strength comes too easily. He hasn't even done anything yet, and he's already stealing forbidden books from the Sand Village all by himself. With that kind of ability, it's fine if he's from Konoha, but the Sand Village knows nothing. Going into the desert is incredibly difficult, especially to steal forbidden books that may or may not even exist.

After chapter 80, the main plot of this book stalls, and the author starts writing random, nonsensical plots.

It feels like all they do is entertain themselves?

The author's plot fails to grasp the key points and doesn't understand what readers want to see; it's bound to flop sooner or later.
