Naruto: I'm a Substitute User

Some thoughts after watching: The protagonist's performance doesn't resemble that of a Stand user with A-level Strength, Speed, and Precision. It's more like he's just using a Stand user's setting. His 1.9-Meter height is intentionally compressed, and during fights, the Stand's presence is minimal; he merely uses the Stand's ability, not the Stand itself.

Think about how to defeat Dio. First, refine the hair of the thousand masters, and then it's very simple. Hiding inside a spiky pile of hair, its entire body resembles a hedgehog. Then there's a stand-in outside; this is primarily for survival—it can't kill you. Time can't be stopped; he doesn't have the power to pierce it.

He harbored thoughts of defecting from Konoha, yet he cultivated so many bonds. If he had so many bonds, he shouldn't have defected in the first place. The idea that being discovered means he has to defect is a weakness. He wasn't cold-blooded enough compared to his past life.

Pairing her with a childhood sweetheart is pointless. The protagonist will probably have to clean up her messes later on, and no matter how powerful the protagonist is, this woman will still be a weakness, like the villain capturing her to threaten him.

Do you know what the stupidest thing is? It's overestimating your own abilities. In a ninja village like Konoha, a world with top-notch reconnaissance capabilities, you don't have enough strength and experience, yet you're making trouble everywhere. Why did you steal the Uchiha's chakra weapon? Why did you release Mizuki?

He taught Ripple to someone else in Chapter 5? This kind of abrupt plot twist is just unbelievable.

Emm

I've only read 12 chapters, why does the protagonist keep thinking about defecting? If you just leave, what will happen to your childhood sweetheart family who took care of you since you were little? They've been living a life of uncertainty with you, and they're worried about being hunted down by Konoha or bounty hunters. Did you suffer injustice in Konoha? Is someone trying to harm you?

I hope there's only one double, not like in other novels where there are tons of doubles. Keep it up!

I don't know where the author got this secondary setting from, adding a plot riddled with holes. The protagonist's sword was found in a sealed scroll containing a large quantity of coup supplies and weapons from the Uchiha clan. The Root members had just entered to loot the supplies, but that was still part of the battlefield.
