The Hokage: Starting as an Ordinary Ninja

I think the current Naruto fanfiction is lacking. It's full of conspiracy theories and melodramatic plots, lacking the passion and excitement of the original Naruto. The battles don't feel as exhilarating as when you defeat powerful enemies. It's not positive enough, and it's always smearing the Will of Fire. I understand that the protagonist isn't a native and therefore doesn't resonate with it, but there's no need to go to such lengths to demonize him.

I really don't recommend reading this fanfiction. The author uses settings from other fanfictions without checking the official settings, and just creates his own settings for his own enjoyment. Sword Escape, Spirit Transformation Mist, Body Strengthening Techniques, and all sorts of other nonsense... If you're bored, you can bite a lighter.

The protagonist is overly kind. It's not that he's a saint, but in a ninja world where everyone is killed by shuriken at the age of ten, the protagonist's character is really unsettling. He tells everyone about the ninjutsu he invented. And with his ability to infiltrate others' bodies with his spiritual mist, his superhuman chakra perception, and his decent ninjutsu talent, he can know other…

Without the ultimate Yang Release nature chakra, the upper limit of an ordinary person's Wood Release is only Yamato-2.

Seeing the use of shadow clones to replace injured organs made me lose all interest in watching. The logic is flawed; what you're splitting off is just a mass of chakra, outwardly identical but functionally different! It would be far better to use cell regeneration, modeling the organ with a shadow clone, controlling the regeneration with Yang Release chakra, creating the organ, and then…

The power system concept is clearly superior to other Naruto fanfiction. However, there's too much unnecessary talk. Also, the protagonist is incredibly indecisive and overly sentimental.

Ordinary people are nothing to see. You don't actually think every person is Orochimaru, do you?

I don't really understand. What is the protagonist's motivation for risking his life for Konoha? And why does he actively go to the battlefield when he is weak, even after losing an eye? What is he after?

I initially thought I was about to discover a fresh and original story, with several new elements introduced at the beginning. However, as the plot unfolded, it felt like the same old formula, as if the author couldn't write a story without an original script... They promised to live well, but during the war, they risked their lives for a mistake made by their comrades...

All I can say is that even if the claim of "Deadly Poisonous Influenza" for a Rain Village Jonin is exaggerated, it wouldn't warrant the long-distance ambush to kill a Konoha Genin on his first battlefield experience. Nor would it require having someone ambush the protagonist along the way… only to have them conveniently killed by him.
