I like the idea of Itachi just retiring from being a ninja after the war. He just chills around and takes care of Sarada and maybe his own kids. The life he deserved.
Awesome hypothetical. Some takeaways I got from this series of events: - Itachi still being a Leaf shinobi and Tsunade being back in the village as well...genuinely possible the greatest medical ninja in the world actually cures Itachi's illness. And we can potentially see a prime healthy Itachi (potentially with EMS as well, if he can transplant Shisui's eyes, since Obito was so kind as to bring his body back as a power move lol) - Hebi is a bit of a point of contention because we are left not knowing just what happens with Orochimaru now in Shin's body or even characters like Jugo or Karin, considering how much of a drive for characterization and arc Sasuke was for them in the OG, only for him not to be present at all in this timeline - Fugaku dying standing up to Madara, representing just what the Uchiha could have been in Konoha that Madara lost faith in, the Uchiha who was chosen and accepted as Hokage, and in the end passing down his message, new ideals with renewed faith in the Leaf, and directly his power to the next generation of Uchiha in Sasuke *and* doing so as a similar thing happens with Naruto as Kushina dies, Minato literally passing it down and being the contemporary, friend, advocate, basically the Shikamaru to Fugaku's Naruto... chef's kiss - That does beg the question though...Fugaku is dead...who becomes the next Hokage? Does Minato take up the mantle a little later than in canon and help lead the realm in an era of peace (and potentially end up getting that rematch vs Orochimaru as Hokage this time)? Does Tsunade become 5th Hokage in both timelines due to her efforts in both major conflicts and vaunted history as a Sannin? Does Itachi take up his father's mantle and become the Hokage, being one to possess the mind and heart of a Hokage according to Senju Hokage in the OG timeline? I pretty much think it's one of these three for sure because Kakashi would just fall down the pecking order in this timeline and even Naruto may not even be interested considering his happy upbringing meaning he doesn't really feel the need for it for recognition and his dad not even being Hokage so it's also not something he aspires to as a legacy thing either. Honestly, this timeline's Sasuke would be up above Naruto in terms of predicted desire to become Hokage, and it would be pretty funny if, down the line, we ended up with the opposite of canon: Sasuke as the official Hokage and Naruto as the "shadow Hokage" though Naruto would definitely be much more like Jiraiya in that role.
I wish hammer would have replied to this just for the orochimaru part. Would like to see what he thinks happens cause it is one thing that was never resovled
Itachi EMS would be kinda funny actually. Sasuke pops his own eyes out and gets EMS from Fugaku's eyes, and Itachi takes Sasuke's original eyes to get his EMS unlock. Or simplify things and Fugaku tells Sasuke "find your brother and trade eyes. this will make you both stronger than me."
When you brought up that Fugaku Vs. Madara fight I was like damn I wish I could have seen that just imagining it in my head has me going, the exchange of words before the fight would be so badass.
I’m confused as to Danzo ordering the uchiha to guard the outskirts of the village, because if it really was true that the uchiha are the ones responsible for releasing the nine tails on the village why on earth would they just give up and be like “well we were gonna destroy the village but we got orders to guard the outskirts so too bad for that plan”
Its realistic because fear is irrational. People do stupid things that dont make much sense when they are scared especially if they are suspicious after all the clan might have still been allied but its possible a few select individuals did it but wouldnt blow their cover on what seemed like a foiled plan. It also comes down to if they arent allowed to help they dont gain any credit and look useless helping to break any potential political gain for a suspected future enemy
I know I am very late, but that is kind of the point IMO. The Uchiha actually controlling Kurama would realistically still move on with their plan, so killing any Uchiha on sight becomes a viable option, since any Uchiha near Kurama would be disobeying orders and therefore would probably be the culprit.
Not only that but if the Uchiha were controlling Kurama the last thing the village should do is segregate them. Easy way to minimize Uchiha casualties.
Obviously because they don’t have enough evidence of the Uchihas actually controlling the 9 tails. If they disobeyed orders and actually have done so, it would give Danzo reasonable cause to eliminate the Uchiha. Suspicions =\= facts. That’s why he had to do so
I think it was more a case of Danzo knowing that even if Fugaku didn’t release Kurama he could definitely control him, Danzo doesn’t want anyone having more control over the situation than himself
They need a marvel "what if" series for naruto. Each season is 5-10 episodes and set in a different reality because thinking of naruto and sauske as actual best friends with full families sounds awesome or at least a better version of Boruto lol
@@NCHammer23 I was gunna say “Infinite Tsukoyomi took care of that” lol But still sounds like fun. I recently went back and watched all the filler that I kinda skipped over back when I was catching up to Shippuden and now that Shippuden is over I actually really enjoyed the filler 😂
@@NCHammer23 Unrelated but theres a dude faking your page trying to scam in your comments on the most recent video. Idk what you can do but though you should know
Since Kushina was weak from giving birth, I feel like Kurama would have still needed to be split up before being sealed back in her, so Naruto still would have gotten half of Kurama sealed inside of him. In my mind this means Naruto still would have trained with Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Yamato. Maybe just a little later in life which would be where Sai steps in as a temporary team 7 member.
yeah the plan was for her to take kurama into the afterlife with her to stall what ever plan obito had and Minato came up with the reaper death seal. I think Kushina would of died that day considering all that happened.
i really see fugaku getting rid of danzo by means of firing him, killing him or banishing. sooner or later fugaku will catch on to danzo's hatred and distrust and i think he will deal with it.
definetly. he's definetly the type to look into it as soon as he gets into office. he'd also probably replace the elders too once getting rid of danzo which we would all very much appreciate
Danzo would have anticipated punishment and would have used his influence to assassinate Fugaku. Until Naruto there was always discrimination against the Uchiha. Naruto and Sasuke’s friendship signifies peace between the two clans.
This was a great story, but there was one thing I did notice. The 10 year limit on Kotoamatsukami only applies to those who take Shisui’s eyes. Shisui himself you’ll use Kotoamtsumaki once per day in both eyes.
@@sasookex There’s nothing in canon stating that to be true. It’s only speculation that people think Shisui could use it sooner. Mind you, it’s a reasonable speculation, but still speculation.
@@jamisonreynolds9949 shisui grandfather lost his sight for 10 years because he used kotomatsukami and is the reason we know the limitation do idk where this once a day thing comes from since a literal Uchiha had to take the same punishment or am I tripping
@@cuberd3398 Not true. I don’t know where you got that information from, but we know next to nothing about Kagami aside from him being on Tobirama’s team. I could be wrong though. Show me a source.
The filler arc where we see Tsunade's infinite Tsukiyomi tells a lot of what happens in Naruto if many of those key members get to live on. Interesting takes.
@@SASMADBRUV7 but even in tsukuyomi that was due to Danzo, who would be dead in this timeline. So Sasuke could turn out amazing without that bastard ruining everything.
@@chico1786 I also think that this would go better than Infinite Taukoyomi Sasuke because with Fugaku as Hokage he'd have less pressure from the clan on his back so maybe he'd manage to be less of a shitty dad so early on so Sasuke could actually have a healthy childhood and turn out infinitely better.
Also: minato left his teleportation mark on obito during their fight so he is able to teleport to him at anytime once he’s ready to fight/kill him. This mark never goes away
@@popeyeclapsgoku774 lol no. Obito still had the mark since Minato used that in the war arc. Bee was able to "get rid" of the mark because he just cut off the limb that had the mark.
@@popeyeclapsgoku774 1. I don't think Jinchurikis can just erase Minato's mark like a rubber to a pencil. 2. Even if they can do that, why the hell would Bee erase Obito's mark? 3. We know Obito still had the mark up until the war Arc. Minato sliced him in half using the mark.
Which... would also be another really good argument to say Fugaku, and the other Uchiha of the village, aren't the one, since none have the mark either, sticking it up to Danzo.
Bro I love seeing how much thought Nick puts into his videos. I never would have thought that making fugaku hokage changed so much of the later episodes of naruto.
Black Zetsu watching all this finding Shisui, informing “Madara”Tobi about the situation and this Shisui on Alatsuki would be absolutely REDONKULOUS🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I realized that an Uchiha becoming Hokage, whether it'd be Madara or Kagami as First or Second Hokage or Fugaku as Fourth Hokage, would have meant a stronger/better Konoha overall, quite some time before the Fourth great Ninja War arc started, after the Sasuke vs Itachi fight in Shippuuden.
@@Thisgueyesguapo Second Hokage's advisor or student to potentially become the Third Hokage instead of Sarutobi. Whether he'd be advising Madara or Tobirama, either way it'd be good.
@@RogueAndroid Yeah but Hiruzen, according to lore, was probably the strongest dude around at that time, so there was no getting past him. Just as with Minato, at the time it was the right decision to make Hiruen Hokage, but in Hindsight, Kagami would have probably been the right choice. Also Tobirama hated Uchihas so Kagami did not have a chance at all.
@@chico1786 tobirama didn’t hate the uchiha though. he was wary of them but he accepted them all the same. he also held kagami in high regard. though i do agree that sarutobi would still be thhe 3rd hokage since he’s considered as the strongest in his time
Madara being Hokage is a really bad idea, judging by how he actually was... but for Kagami as third Hokage... somehow, I feel like it may have prevented the whole Uchiha massacre, so maybe still no vengeance thristy Sasuke to be seen, even then. (Unless he somehow died and somebody else, likely Hiruzen had to then take his place and undid whatever good he did for the uchiha/konoha relationship)
Man if you had the proper funding the amazing series you could do with these what if scenarios would be impeccable! Love your narration and the way you make these topics easily digestible is dope dude
shisui has always been my favorite off all time i feel like they could of done so much with him he had so much potential. He is only Uchiha who has social skills that match his talent. I feel like him and Fugaku had so much potential as Fugako was a canadatite for Hokage and had a run on sight order just like Minato in the 3rd War, and you can say that Minato was younger and was a prodigy but would'nt Fugako's age help him expirience wise. It would of been cool if we got a little rivalry backstory on minato and Fugako rivalry as jonins and during there Hokaha election. I would even accept Fugako taking Danzos job as the Shadow kage. Also would of been cool to get a more indebt story of Shisui as he was better than Itachi as a prodigy like the time him and Itachi had to face Mukai Kohinata or maybe some stories about his relation to Kagami(would also like to here bout Kagami as it was said he was friedns with DANZO!!!)
@@diggerman23 true but it would be a cool little fight/fact like how Kushina and Mikoto where good friends, having Minato and Fugako being academy/genin rivals would be dope asl
Shisui was a prodigy older than Itachi. Itachi himself broke records and both of them were held in high regard. Shisui is someone that Itachi looked up to since he was 6
I really like how you handle approaching theories like this. UA-cam is a job, but you give off a vibe during your videos that at least makes it seem like your really passionate about these topics. after awhile any UA-camr will run out of characters and lore to explain for niche topics like Naruto, so making (in my opinion) really well crafted and thought out theories like this are super interesting and fun!
I love your What If series, it's so intriguing to see what an arc timeline would look like with a little bit of the magic touch. Especially the length of the video to really drag me in, well done 🙏🍻
The only problem I have with the interaction with Danzo is that we've seen him placed under genjutsu by Sasuke during their fight. Albeit a weaker genjutsu than others we have seen, I do see this as a problem with speculation as is. Once he was under it and understood he was under it at the start, and once he was at the end of the fight and didn't realize it, and we didn't see him attempt to end himself during each of these instances. Beyond that this is wonderful. Still trying to think of what would happen *IF* Danzo was left as is in Kotoamatsukami.
I love the videos!! My "naruto hunger" is solely satiated by you and my knowledge of naruto really expanded by your videos. Thank you for all your hard work
I would read your version of Naruto! This was cool. Love the “what if’s”. I have to say what you did about fixing Sakura character was on point and that was killer too! Keep it up man. I’m working on getting my desktop fixed because of your shonobi strikers streams.
This was a fun ride. I’d love more of these what ifs. Not only cuz you’re ideas are good/cool but you’re a solid story teller while telling them. Making itachi and Minato live longer makes me want this to happen 😂😂
plothole, danzo was put under genjutsu by Sasuke during their fight and did not kill himself, therefore no seal was ever present on danzo, just his underlings. that changes the entire story
but minato tagged obito so obito wouldve probably gotten kill after they got kurama sealed. they would have assemble an elite team to go after him and fugaku would've probably been in it to counter sharingan. Minato also thought it couldve been madara so yeah. Eventually, I think fugaku would've basically killed danzo or just kicked him out of the village simply because hiruzen would've requsted not to kill him. So basically you have A) danzo warns obito somehow so obito lives. B) obito dies but black zetsu would've allied with danzo instead and you have a situation where danzo wants to reclaim the village because all this time he already believed only him can keep the village safe and make it stronger. In the end Danzo was kinda of a pre-fascism type of character or just read the "fin de ciecle era and fusion of maurrasism with sorelianism" section on wiki's fascism page
@@AravindKumar-lj7kx well somehow obito lives. because in the original timeline as far as i know he A) didnt know tag remained forever or B) him being tagged was something that was just never on is mind even after minato's death and eventual reincarnation so he forgot. In the end the most entertaining WHAT IF it just danzo joining akatsuki along with orochimaru. Maybe even danzo ends up becoming Kazekage since he has always been working with Orochimaru and orochimaru killed 3rd Kazekage. To be fair the reason of Orochimaru attacking the village was kind weak anyways so maybe Danzo attacks it instead.
Hell, I'll take it a step further and say that Danzo as an akatsuki member starts hunting down Sharingans and even some byakugans of leaf ninjas going out in missions. Him using the network of the akatsuki to make himself stronger and more experiments with orochimaru and what motivates the plot to start focusing on the akatsuki in Shippuden.
@@30STMand3DG i think that will go against nagatos objective to acheive peace. it could be argued that nagato lets hiddan do sacrifices and lets kakaza rob banks. But hiddan needs to do sacrifices to stay immortal and i rememeber konan stating that the akatsuki need money as well as tailed beasts to fund the organisation in storm 3 which is canon. but all in all , i dont see nagato letting danzo run around stealing dojutsu. it will make the akatsuki to high status too early. if you remember the five kage only took the akatsuki serious after they tried getting killer bee and by then they had gottan 7 of the 9 tailed beats. the akatsukis strenth was the fact that people new very little about them. so dont see nagato let danzo do thta
It’d be cool to see Itachi lead a genin squad. It’d probably be a conflict of interest for him to be Sasuke’s jonin, but he’d probably be a really good teacher for Naruto
I dunno if this is allowed for ninja to train their relative. Like you said, it doesn't sound like a good idea. Plus, when it comes to actual teams in the show, we don't see anyone who is related to their sensei. Tradition ? Sure, with the Sarutobi + Ino-shika-cho formation, but this is all. There may be training time for anyone who belongs to a clan (that is still alive *looking at Naruto and Sasuke*) with their clan, to learn more hidden justu of said clan, like we see for the Hyuga, like we are tol Kiba and Shino have too (and likely the entire team 10). Putting those from civilians families, like Sakura (possibly Lee and Tenten too) at a disadvantage just like this. Naruto and Sasuke are special cases, because the Uzumaki were long wiped out and weren't even from the leaf, complicating the thing and well... any Uchiha could have trained Sasuke, when it comes to sharigan, if they were still alive. (part of why they settle for second best with giving him to Kakashi) ... On this topic, I am not sure if team 7 is good or bad for Kakashi mental health when you think of it. Sasuke is like tiny him but also a uchiha oprhan, like Obito, Naruto is the child of his sensei and acts like Obito... the only arguably different one, at least back then, is Sakura, that is quite different from Rin, but does grow up to become more similar...
Please take your salvation seriously. If you haven't read at least three books of the Bible yet, please consider today. The first book of each testament and one you chose yourself, I'd say that's an important minimum amount for a mustard seed of faith, with a bit of forgiveness like Jesus Christ taught. Please, look inside. Find the light. Inside reflects outside. Love is God. God is love. Jesus Christ is Lord.
2:56 fugaku would prob request that theyre put on the same time because theyre friends. ino, shikamaru, and choji are on the same time because they're parents were and they all grew up together, so it's not hard to think that a similar thing would happen.
I think this version of events would be a cool way for Itachi to get his MS from “having” to kill Shusui to “protect the leaf” and then he finds out Shusui was really a spy later on to kind of replace the whole Itachi-Sasuke truth coming out situation
Excellent "What If". A possible suggestion: "What if Tobirama took went thru with Hiruzen's offer to be the decoy, or some case where Tobirama survived..."
Instead of the third edo tensei coffin being Minato getting a retcon, I prefer to believe that Madara is in the casket. And that's why hiruzen was like I can't let the third one come up
Great analysis and theory. There are alot of small ways this timeline can derail/diverge but the core of your theory is spot on. Honestly whatever happens during naruto’s birth and right after dictates the rest of the show and blaming the uchiha definitely was not the move. Hiruzen really needed to kick out danzo.
Based on this headcanon/theory, without Kurama, with both his parents alive growing up, would Naruto even have Talk no jutsu in the first place, and thus either he ends up killing Nagato or getting killed by him? I guess plot armor steps in if that's the case, so then Naruto kills Nagato.
@@Zarah.Mornom Yeah. Naruto wouldn't have Talk no jutsu if he didn't suffer as a kid, because his talk no jutsu, his ability to reach people's hearts comes from being able to relate to other people's pain and suffering. And since he experienced pain like most of people he used talk no jutsu on (and worked) but decided to improve and save and care for others, he became credible enough to be listened to. ***In this headcanon/theory, at least
Minato would still be alive, along with the 2 sanin, more than enough to stop, pain/nagato. Minato said during the pain fight that, madara/tobi was the real threat. Also naruto out smarted pain when they where both chakra exhausted with shadow clones. So a sage Naruto nd Minato combo could pull of some crazy feats.
@@DieHard1912 Cool, though I based my comments on the theory/headcanon from the video, which says that Minato died from shielding Naruto from the chakra rods. But yeah, that's cool too.
@@Red_Wright1357 good thing it’s a theory/headcannon.. because it would be a shitty story if minato got killed by chakra rods from someone he thought was less of a threat than than a one sharigan madara/tobi… also goes to say sage Naruto would wash even tho his whole story counts on sage Naruto messing up…
My man, idk if u read comments but 2 things: • Master audio is too quiet on this video. • When u merge the music so it can loop on itself it takes too long. Try to synchronize the peaks of the audio and then merge it for like 2 secs and it will work better. Cheers
I’m glad instead of hating you helped him out you a real one, this is one my favorite UA-camrs I been watching for awhile so him improving is always better for us the audience
Minato is an excellent sensor Ninja and is a Uber genius and would quickly figure out that the six paths were being controlled and he would then find and kill Nagato and take his Rinnigan foiling Akatsuki's plan
I'm honestly not sure... I think Kisame and Itachi's bond was the way it was because Itachi was just obscenely OP and one of the few people on Earth Kisame saw as his superior in terms of power/skill, I don't think Shisui could match that
I also doubt that Shisui would lose to Obito, at least I wouldn't think he would since he was on par with Itachi and I wanna doubt that Itachi would lose to Obito as well. But honestly the power scaling is confusing to me. I'd also like to believe that Shisui wouldn't be stupid enough to use his MS on Nagato and would instead talk no jutsu like Naruto, and before Nagato was persuaded Obito kills him and battled Shisui for awhile, fled before being caught in the genjutsu and still declared war on the Uchiha. Because Shisui was said to be on par with Itachi in intelligence I'd hate to think he'd waste his last remaining eye on someone less importance like Nagato.
Something I've been pretty curious about but it probably doesn't deem a video but was Obito giving Kakashi his eye the starting point of people taking other peoples eyeballs, like Danzo and Ao and the Cloud trying to take Hinata.
Kakashi would probably be a better teacher too, because he didn't lose his entire team, he still has Minato, and because Minato isn't hokage, they'd probably have more time to actually work out kakashi's trauma rather than shoving him into ANBU and making everything ten times worse.
I think minatu would be able to find tobi (obito) anytime he want. Sens minato did mark obito with his flying raishin and i think obito would be captured
My one issue is how often orichimaru referred to saske as the "perfect vessel", he wanted saskes body due to the strength and him being an Uchiha therefore I belive orchimaru will still go after saske but saske would be way less willing to join
He was the perfect vessel but with itachi and fugaku still being alive he’d be harder to obtain. And the uchiha clan would still be alive and there may be better options such as someone similar to itachi
There’s a lot of what if’s you can look back and hypothesize could/would change w/slight adjustments once you’ve see the original ending and outcomes, this version included, some for the better, some for the worse. In my opinion, one of the things that could have made the biggest (potentially positive) differences in the Nauruto world, for several characters/groups of characters (think the Uzumaki’s, & Uchicha’s, etc.) was for Hiruzen Sarutobi to have some sense smacked into him during the second half of his reign as Hokage and make better choices. Despite having the trust of the village and power of the Hokage, he essentially let lower ranking officials run the show and control his decisions (yes he’s supposed to consult with them, but he basically become’s Danzo’s lapdog), which lead to one bad decision after another that cause a lot of unnecessary death, destruction and chaos. Not only did he flub his leadership duties, he failed his duty as a ninja when he allowed Orochimaru to escape Konica when he couldn’t bring himself to kill his precious student turned mad scientist. Any ordinary ninja would be locked up for letting that happen. And finally the way that Naruto was raised was uncomprehensible. He was the son of a Hokage and yet was given the bare minimum in resources and attention and was basically ignored and orphaned since birth (like why would you do that to a child that holds such a dangerous weapon inside him!) he really failed Kushina and Minato in raising Naruto and it can’t even be said it was for secrecy since Naruto is the biggest open secrect in Konoha and throughout the series has not much hesitation sharing with others what’s inside of him. Maybe Hiruzen was getting to old and his mind was to deteriorated or something but he really scuffed things up in Konoha and Aron d the ninja world with some of of his poor decisions and hesitancy to implement his authority,
Love your “What if” theories. Your so descriptive that I can listen to it while driving and picture everything going on perfectly👏 So…. How many hidden Shinobi Village headbands do you have?
This was actually one of the things NCHammer got wrong; IIRC there is no suicide seal on the Root members; they have a seal that paralyzed (but does not kill) them if they attempt to leak information. Similarly, Danzo doesn’t have any such seal; Sasuke places him under two genjutsu during their fight successfully.
I'd love to see Madara's internal conflict of fighting Hokage Fugaku, the ELECTED Uchiha Hokage meaning the entire village Senju and otherwise selecting an Uchiha to lead the village Madara loved so much
Hell, would he even fight the cancelling of the endo tensei actually, upon seeing it ? Maybe it would weaken his resolve, since he was kinda proven wrong too as a result ? (especially if you also left room to some talk no justu... Hell, imagine if somebody told him, to his face, that most of the actions he did, only lead to more problems than anything for Konoha, who would have thrived better without it.)
I would probably think, that he may rethink his plan if an Uchiha that inherited the will of fire and became an Uchiha, if not and he still continues his plan, i wonder what the war arc happens, imagine the the Hokages getting edon tenseid and saw an Uchiha Hokage with him
As always a good video keep on bringing em Nick !!! A question, you said ( in the begging) that minato served 2-3 years but didn’t he only serve 9 or 11 months before the Kurama/Obito attack ?
So many great threads. I appreciate all the thought put into the events of the whole timeline. You still left out Orochimaru! Konoha would have a tremendous amount of firepower with all the Uchija's, both Minato and the Third Hokage and Fukaku. Something horrible about Obito killing Shisui is that Obito would have access to the Kotoamatsukami. However, I also believe Shisui would have used his second use of Kotoamatsukami to either beat Obito or to have been set to activate after death so that his body (and eyes) return safely to the Uchiha clan. That way he makes sure Itachi gets his own Mangekyu and Shishui's eyes are not in enemy hands. I would also make that P ain somehow able to disrupt the flying Raijin seals so that every time Minato teleports, he would feel a stab of Nagato's chakra, just so that the battle is more interesting. Love the way both Naruto and Sasuke get their amps at the end. They mirror each other. And Sasuke would have more interesting Magekyu abilities than Amateratsu, given Itachi wouldn't have modified Sasuke's Mangekyu. By the way, Itachi taking on Kabuto seems reasonable given Kabuto wouldn't have as much info on Itachi, and I still give Itachi is the man who draws himself. If there are many Uchijas, and you have Tsunade Senju at your side, I could imagine a side branch where Fugaku tells Tsunade of the Uchija tablet, and what goes on after would be quite a lot of speculation. In short, great video, and full of possibilities, and so I like how you tackled the whole storyline. Please keep it up.
Danzo was put under Sasuke genjutsu and didn't slice himself open, that's how you can tell he never used his seal upon himself. He probably wouldn't do it regardless of circumstances. He isn't a field agent.
This was awesome. I enjoyed this idea. Please do continue doing this. What if danzo became hokage? Would the hidden leaf eventually find it's downfall during Naruto's legacy? I imagine it becoming a way more military style village
32:56 You forgot that Deidara would probably also go after Kushina to get the Nine-Tails. He might at least need that as his alibi to the other Akatsuki for going there at all.
Minor point of correction: Jiraiya did not know nagato was part of the akatski and would not know that the akatski have the rinnegan and he was shocked to find that after he infiltrated
I think Fugaku Uchiha as Hokage would have been awesome as we would see how instrumental the Uchiha were much earlier than in the main timeline. Plus, Sasuke and Naruto are close friends, essentially brothers in everything except blood through the Will of Fire, and I love it! Love your take on this idea, NCHammer 23, and love the pitbull.
Danzo didn’t have beef with the uchiha. He had beef with them after they had a coup and he figured also that a uchiha not one of them but a uchiha was the reason why the nine tails was released. He killed shisui bc he felt like it would of been a waste and then let the uchiha know the leaf knows about the coup and be force to fight a civil war than a coup
I’ll agree but I’m also thinking that since danzo is old enough to know hashirama and tobirama he would be old enough to know about the senju and uchiha wars and since the senjus breaded in kohona but the the uchihas danzo could think they are gonna try to take over now that the senju are gone and no 1 clan can truly fight against them and since danzo want kohona itself to be number 1 a rouge clan that is not part working with the village like the hyuga could be scary to a governor like danzo. And what’s worse than infighting/civil war? So before it become a problem he would snuff them out. So even tho I agree with your logic I get the feeling that danzo would always be afraid of what the uchiha could do to the village
nonononononononono danzo orchestrated the coup specifically to harvest of the eyes of the uchiha, he was ready with a full squad of ninja to pluck their eyes out after the massacre
The third casket has been the greatest overlooked plot hole of all Naruto. It can't be the fourth hokage, he was already sealed by the reaper death seal
I like the idea of Fugaku becoming Hokage. I think he would make life better for the Uchiha and inherit a deeper love for the people in the village who are not Uchiha. He never really seemed like a bad guy. His position put pressure on him.🤔
I LOVE these "What If..." scenarios you're doing, and I want to drop my two cents on some things that may be a "what if..." to the "what if..." With Fugaku being hokage, and being aware of the effort Minato put in during the 3rd GSW, it would be a lot like (maybe less menacing) Hiruzen and Danzo being Hokage and Shadow Hokage. This would be the pre-Boruto era dynamic duo of all time. Minato may be comfortable with killing, but with Naruto being born, the Akatsuki intel being delivered via Jiraiya/Shisui, I'd bet Minato would more than likely sound Danzo, take over Root (especially with Kushina's help by destroying those burdening seals placed on all Root members), and implement a more effective shadow force that would become Minato's aide. Fugaku would be too busy quelling the tension that the Uchihas still have towards the Leaf, so Minato's acts as Shadow Hokage would benefit him greatly. Since Sasuke is technically older than Naruto, Naruto may be friends with him, but would look up to Sasuke as a rival to be far better than him since he has a Sharingan as his handicap. Even with Itachi alive and training his younger brother, Sasuke would STILL hold some kind of rivalry with Neji since the Hyuuga consider themselves the strongest clan in the Leaf (challenge accepted). As for teams, Naruto may still be teamed up with Sakura, but I think the best fit would be Hinata as their third member, with Sasuke as their team captain. ~Note: if Sasuke is more progessively talented in this timeline, then he SHOULD become a Chuunin/Jonin early enough to run Team 7, not Kakashi. He'd probably run Kurenai's team, since tracking would be more his specialty. With the new Team 7 with three powerful clans, and a massively talented chakra-contolling (and possibly genjutsu-mastering) Sakura, that team would OP AF. There's a lot of possibilities running through this "what if...", and I would truly enjoy collaborating with Hammer on some of these, if given the opportunity.
I watched this whole video from start to finish and I LOVED it. Only problem I see is that Minato would moust likely kill Obito in their fight during nine tails attack or he would just telleport to him after that whole deal and kill him then (I feel like 2. option is more likely because there is no one more suitable for tracking Obito and fighting him in whole village then Minato, plus he already tagged Obito and marked him during battle). If he tracks Obito, witch he would since he almost killed his wife, he would no diffed him, afterwards he might fall in depression since it was his pupjl who started a war because Minato himself, fastest shinobi in the world, was not fast enough to save him and Rin. This would create fantastic dinamic between Minato and Nagato down the line (I would say that Nagato would still form akacuki since black zecu is still ploting revival of Madara/Kaguha).
If the third hokage knew what danzo was doing why didn't he stop him danzo literally was able to do whatever he wanted to do throughout the whole show?
What about Sakura? I mean I don’t think she would have a crush on sasuke since he’s not emo and she wouldn’t be a jerk to Naruto. But would she have still have been trained by tsunade? So would Sakura and sasuke be together in this theory of yours or not now that sasuke is not a jerk to Sakura?
I can see Sakura still training under Tsunade in this timeline after hearing about how powerful Tsunade is. I'd personally either want her to get together with Naruto or just go off and do her own thing with leading the hospital as head medic.
Without Sasuke there Kabuto wins easily. The sound genjutsu was GG without them being able to look in each other's eyes. I get your point though power wise Sasuke doesn't matter but for that reason he needs to be there
Serious question: Couldn’t itachi use his newly unlocked MS ability and cast a tsykuyomi that keeps Kabuto in a genjutsu that makes him relive his life and mistakes making him realize his path in life was flawed? Instead of izigmai?
^Especially in the regular timeline where he had MS for much Longer and was reanimated meaning he had infinite chakra to make an even more powerful tskuyomi genjutsu
I like the idea of Itachi just retiring from being a ninja after the war. He just chills around and takes care of Sarada and maybe his own kids. The life he deserved.
Yeah he wouldn't have had to kill Izumi so they could've lived out their lives together
It ignores the fact he wanted to be Hokage and make the village more peaceful
@@Kenshinxxx0019
Except in this scenario everything is fine and his father is Hokage
@@theflyingace611 I mean by the end of the war his father is killed by madara
He did thecnoly have it but like it was a genjutsu
Awesome hypothetical. Some takeaways I got from this series of events:
- Itachi still being a Leaf shinobi and Tsunade being back in the village as well...genuinely possible the greatest medical ninja in the world actually cures Itachi's illness. And we can potentially see a prime healthy Itachi (potentially with EMS as well, if he can transplant Shisui's eyes, since Obito was so kind as to bring his body back as a power move lol)
- Hebi is a bit of a point of contention because we are left not knowing just what happens with Orochimaru now in Shin's body or even characters like Jugo or Karin, considering how much of a drive for characterization and arc Sasuke was for them in the OG, only for him not to be present at all in this timeline
- Fugaku dying standing up to Madara, representing just what the Uchiha could have been in Konoha that Madara lost faith in, the Uchiha who was chosen and accepted as Hokage, and in the end passing down his message, new ideals with renewed faith in the Leaf, and directly his power to the next generation of Uchiha in Sasuke *and* doing so as a similar thing happens with Naruto as Kushina dies, Minato literally passing it down and being the contemporary, friend, advocate, basically the Shikamaru to Fugaku's Naruto... chef's kiss
- That does beg the question though...Fugaku is dead...who becomes the next Hokage? Does Minato take up the mantle a little later than in canon and help lead the realm in an era of peace (and potentially end up getting that rematch vs Orochimaru as Hokage this time)? Does Tsunade become 5th Hokage in both timelines due to her efforts in both major conflicts and vaunted history as a Sannin? Does Itachi take up his father's mantle and become the Hokage, being one to possess the mind and heart of a Hokage according to Senju Hokage in the OG timeline? I pretty much think it's one of these three for sure because Kakashi would just fall down the pecking order in this timeline and even Naruto may not even be interested considering his happy upbringing meaning he doesn't really feel the need for it for recognition and his dad not even being Hokage so it's also not something he aspires to as a legacy thing either. Honestly, this timeline's Sasuke would be up above Naruto in terms of predicted desire to become Hokage, and it would be pretty funny if, down the line, we ended up with the opposite of canon: Sasuke as the official Hokage and Naruto as the "shadow Hokage" though Naruto would definitely be much more like Jiraiya in that role.
I wish hammer would have replied to this just for the orochimaru part. Would like to see what he thinks happens cause it is one thing that was never resovled
I dont think kushina would of died cause the uchihas would of actually join the battle n obito wouldn't of been able to strike
Itachi EMS would be kinda funny actually.
Sasuke pops his own eyes out and gets EMS from Fugaku's eyes, and Itachi takes Sasuke's original eyes to get his EMS unlock.
Or simplify things and Fugaku tells Sasuke "find your brother and trade eyes. this will make you both stronger than me."
Going from memory. Don't you need the eyes of a family member in order to obtain EMS? Or am I wrong?
When you brought up that Fugaku Vs. Madara fight I was like damn I wish I could have seen that just imagining it in my head has me going, the exchange of words before the fight would be so badass.
Yeah, I got goosebumps imagining it.
@@jamisonreynolds9949 I didnt
Fugaku would get clapped no diff
@@BaliUchiha Who wins isn’t the aspect that intrigues ppl. It’s the interaction.
I honestly think that he woulda got murdered by madara if they fought
I’m confused as to Danzo ordering the uchiha to guard the outskirts of the village, because if it really was true that the uchiha are the ones responsible for releasing the nine tails on the village why on earth would they just give up and be like “well we were gonna destroy the village but we got orders to guard the outskirts so too bad for that plan”
Its realistic because fear is irrational. People do stupid things that dont make much sense when they are scared especially if they are suspicious after all the clan might have still been allied but its possible a few select individuals did it but wouldnt blow their cover on what seemed like a foiled plan. It also comes down to if they arent allowed to help they dont gain any credit and look useless helping to break any potential political gain for a suspected future enemy
I know I am very late, but that is kind of the point IMO. The Uchiha actually controlling Kurama would realistically still move on with their plan, so killing any Uchiha on sight becomes a viable option, since any Uchiha near Kurama would be disobeying orders and therefore would probably be the culprit.
Not only that but if the Uchiha were controlling Kurama the last thing the village should do is segregate them. Easy way to minimize Uchiha casualties.
Obviously because they don’t have enough evidence of the Uchihas actually controlling the 9 tails. If they disobeyed orders and actually have done so, it would give Danzo reasonable cause to eliminate the Uchiha. Suspicions =\= facts. That’s why he had to do so
I think it was more a case of Danzo knowing that even if Fugaku didn’t release Kurama he could definitely control him, Danzo doesn’t want anyone having more control over the situation than himself
They need a marvel "what if" series for naruto. Each season is 5-10 episodes and set in a different reality because thinking of naruto and sauske as actual best friends with full families sounds awesome or at least a better version of Boruto lol
I mean we like sortaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa got it with the infinite tsukoyomi dreams
They need one for Naruto & dbz they leaving money on the table
@@NCHammer23 I was gunna say “Infinite Tsukoyomi took care of that” lol
But still sounds like fun. I recently went back and watched all the filler that I kinda skipped over back when I was catching up to Shippuden and now that Shippuden is over I actually really enjoyed the filler 😂
@@NCHammer23 Unrelated but theres a dude faking your page trying to scam in your comments on the most recent video. Idk what you can do but though you should know
yes
Since Kushina was weak from giving birth, I feel like Kurama would have still needed to be split up before being sealed back in her, so Naruto still would have gotten half of Kurama sealed inside of him.
In my mind this means Naruto still would have trained with Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Yamato. Maybe just a little later in life which would be where Sai steps in as a temporary team 7 member.
yeah the plan was for her to take kurama into the afterlife with her to stall what ever plan obito had and Minato came up with the reaper death seal. I think Kushina would of died that day considering all that happened.
i really see fugaku getting rid of danzo by means of firing him, killing him or banishing. sooner or later fugaku will catch on to danzo's hatred and distrust and i think he will deal with it.
definetly. he's definetly the type to look into it as soon as he gets into office. he'd also probably replace the elders too once getting rid of danzo which we would all very much appreciate
Danzo would have anticipated punishment and would have used his influence to assassinate Fugaku.
Until Naruto there was always discrimination against the Uchiha.
Naruto and Sasuke’s friendship signifies peace between the two clans.
That’s a definite possibility!
"firing him" by using katon fireball jutsu haha
Yea let’s go with the kill option for danzo
This was a great story, but there was one thing I did notice. The 10 year limit on Kotoamatsukami only applies to those who take Shisui’s eyes. Shisui himself you’ll use Kotoamtsumaki once per day in both eyes.
where did you get that from im not saying your wrong im just curious
Thats more of a theory and isnt canon
@@sasookex There’s nothing in canon stating that to be true. It’s only speculation that people think Shisui could use it sooner. Mind you, it’s a reasonable speculation, but still speculation.
@@jamisonreynolds9949 shisui grandfather lost his sight for 10 years because he used kotomatsukami and is the reason we know the limitation do idk where this once a day thing comes from since a literal Uchiha had to take the same punishment or am I tripping
@@cuberd3398 Not true. I don’t know where you got that information from, but we know next to nothing about Kagami aside from him being on Tobirama’s team. I could be wrong though. Show me a source.
The filler arc where we see Tsunade's infinite Tsukiyomi tells a lot of what happens in Naruto if many of those key members get to live on. Interesting takes.
Turns out sasuke is an emo brat in all timelines
@@SASMADBRUV7 but even in tsukuyomi that was due to Danzo, who would be dead in this timeline. So Sasuke could turn out amazing without that bastard ruining everything.
@@chico1786 I also think that this would go better than Infinite Taukoyomi Sasuke because with Fugaku as Hokage he'd have less pressure from the clan on his back so maybe he'd manage to be less of a shitty dad so early on so Sasuke could actually have a healthy childhood and turn out infinitely better.
They did Sasuke so Dirty
Also: minato left his teleportation mark on obito during their fight so he is able to teleport to him at anytime once he’s ready to fight/kill him. This mark never goes away
Jinuriki can erase the marks so Obito jus has to have killer bee erase it
@@popeyeclapsgoku774 lol no. Obito still had the mark since Minato used that in the war arc. Bee was able to "get rid" of the mark because he just cut off the limb that had the mark.
@@imhappy._. yeah but they already had a convo about this in an interview saying that jinuriki can only remove the mark
@@popeyeclapsgoku774
1. I don't think Jinchurikis can just erase Minato's mark like a rubber to a pencil.
2. Even if they can do that, why the hell would Bee erase Obito's mark?
3. We know Obito still had the mark up until the war Arc. Minato sliced him in half using the mark.
Which... would also be another really good argument to say Fugaku, and the other Uchiha of the village, aren't the one, since none have the mark either, sticking it up to Danzo.
Bro I love seeing how much thought Nick puts into his videos. I never would have thought that making fugaku hokage changed so much of the later episodes of naruto.
Black Zetsu watching all this finding Shisui, informing “Madara”Tobi about the situation and this Shisui on Alatsuki would be absolutely REDONKULOUS🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I realized that an Uchiha becoming Hokage, whether it'd be Madara or Kagami as First or Second Hokage or Fugaku as Fourth Hokage, would have meant a stronger/better Konoha overall, quite some time before the Fourth great Ninja War arc started, after the Sasuke vs Itachi fight in Shippuuden.
Kagami as in the second Hokage’s student? Would be hard for Kagami to be the second Hokage then
@@Thisgueyesguapo Second Hokage's advisor or student to potentially become the Third Hokage instead of Sarutobi.
Whether he'd be advising Madara or Tobirama, either way it'd be good.
@@RogueAndroid Yeah but Hiruzen, according to lore, was probably the strongest dude around at that time, so there was no getting past him. Just as with Minato, at the time it was the right decision to make Hiruen Hokage, but in Hindsight, Kagami would have probably been the right choice. Also Tobirama hated Uchihas so Kagami did not have a chance at all.
@@chico1786 tobirama didn’t hate the uchiha though. he was wary of them but he accepted them all the same. he also held kagami in high regard. though i do agree that sarutobi would still be thhe 3rd hokage since he’s considered as the strongest in his time
Madara being Hokage is a really bad idea, judging by how he actually was... but for Kagami as third Hokage... somehow, I feel like it may have prevented the whole Uchiha massacre, so maybe still no vengeance thristy Sasuke to be seen, even then. (Unless he somehow died and somebody else, likely Hiruzen had to then take his place and undid whatever good he did for the uchiha/konoha relationship)
Man if you had the proper funding the amazing series you could do with these what if scenarios would be impeccable! Love your narration and the way you make these topics easily digestible is dope dude
shisui has always been my favorite off all time i feel like they could of done so much with him he had so much potential. He is only Uchiha who has social skills that match his talent. I feel like him and Fugaku had so much potential as Fugako was a canadatite for Hokage and had a run on sight order just like Minato in the 3rd War, and you can say that Minato was younger and was a prodigy but would'nt Fugako's age help him expirience wise. It would of been cool if we got a little rivalry backstory on minato and Fugako rivalry as jonins and during there Hokaha election. I would even accept Fugako taking Danzos job as the Shadow kage. Also would of been cool to get a more indebt story of Shisui as he was better than Itachi as a prodigy like the time him and Itachi had to face Mukai Kohinata or maybe some stories about his relation to Kagami(would also like to here bout Kagami as it was said he was friedns with DANZO!!!)
Isn’t fugaku way older than minato
@@diggerman23 yea probably xD
@@diggerman23 true but it would be a cool little fight/fact like how Kushina and Mikoto where good friends, having Minato and Fugako being academy/genin rivals would be dope asl
Shisui was a prodigy older than Itachi. Itachi himself broke records and both of them were held in high regard. Shisui is someone that Itachi looked up to since he was 6
Fugaku has good social skills lmao
I really like how you handle approaching theories like this. UA-cam is a job, but you give off a vibe during your videos that at least makes it seem like your really passionate about these topics. after awhile any UA-camr will run out of characters and lore to explain for niche topics like Naruto, so making (in my opinion) really well crafted and thought out theories like this are super interesting and fun!
I love your What If series, it's so intriguing to see what an arc timeline would look like with a little bit of the magic touch.
Especially the length of the video to really drag me in, well done 🙏🍻
I love the little clips wit you and your dog, it adds character and it's wholesome.
This was beautiful. I loved your take on the Danzo's part of the story. One of my favorite characters in the Naruto story.
The only problem I have with the interaction with Danzo is that we've seen him placed under genjutsu by Sasuke during their fight. Albeit a weaker genjutsu than others we have seen, I do see this as a problem with speculation as is. Once he was under it and understood he was under it at the start, and once he was at the end of the fight and didn't realize it, and we didn't see him attempt to end himself during each of these instances.
Beyond that this is wonderful. Still trying to think of what would happen *IF* Danzo was left as is in Kotoamatsukami.
I love the videos!! My "naruto hunger" is solely satiated by you and my knowledge of naruto really expanded by your videos. Thank you for all your hard work
thanks so much!
@@NCHammer23 this really had to be said though, its amazing that you keep feeding the fanbase with content even when the story is technically over :D

This was a fun ride. I’d love more of these what ifs. Not only cuz you’re ideas are good/cool but you’re a solid story teller while telling them. Making itachi and Minato live longer makes me want this to happen 😂😂
I just got to work and saw you posted this video and immediately took a break to watch it 🤣😂
I'll do you one better I'm watching it and working🤣🤣🤣

Who is hiring you people and allowing you to show up and instantly take a break ? Some terrible employees right here lol
Was already on break and took another to watch this lol
plothole, danzo was put under genjutsu by Sasuke during their fight and did not kill himself, therefore no seal was ever present on danzo, just his underlings. that changes the entire story
but minato tagged obito so obito wouldve probably gotten kill after they got kurama sealed. they would have assemble an elite team to go after him and fugaku would've probably been in it to counter sharingan. Minato also thought it couldve been madara so yeah. Eventually, I think fugaku would've basically killed danzo or just kicked him out of the village simply because hiruzen would've requsted not to kill him. So basically you have A) danzo warns obito somehow so obito lives. B) obito dies but black zetsu would've allied with danzo instead and you have a situation where danzo wants to reclaim the village because all this time he already believed only him can keep the village safe and make it stronger. In the end Danzo was kinda of a pre-fascism type of character or just read the "fin de ciecle era and fusion of maurrasism with sorelianism" section on wiki's fascism page
But obito has izanagi so he would have rewrite his body and erase the mark
@@AravindKumar-lj7kx well somehow obito lives. because in the original timeline as far as i know he A) didnt know tag remained forever or B) him being tagged was something that was just never on is mind even after minato's death and eventual reincarnation so he forgot. In the end the most entertaining WHAT IF it just danzo joining akatsuki along with orochimaru. Maybe even danzo ends up becoming Kazekage since he has always been working with Orochimaru and orochimaru killed 3rd Kazekage. To be fair the reason of Orochimaru attacking the village was kind weak anyways so maybe Danzo attacks it instead.
Hell, I'll take it a step further and say that Danzo as an akatsuki member starts hunting down Sharingans and even some byakugans of leaf ninjas going out in missions. Him using the network of the akatsuki to make himself stronger and more experiments with orochimaru and what motivates the plot to start focusing on the akatsuki in Shippuden.
@@30STMand3DG i think that will go against nagatos objective to acheive peace. it could be argued that nagato lets hiddan do sacrifices and lets kakaza rob banks. But hiddan needs to do sacrifices to stay immortal and i rememeber konan stating that the akatsuki need money as well as tailed beasts to fund the organisation in storm 3 which is canon. but all in all , i dont see nagato letting danzo run around stealing dojutsu. it will make the akatsuki to high status too early. if you remember the five kage only took the akatsuki serious after they tried getting killer bee and by then they had gottan 7 of the 9 tailed beats. the akatsukis strenth was the fact that people new very little about them. so dont see nagato let danzo do thta
Nah they probably would've had other Uchiha go the kage usually don't leave the village
It’d be cool to see Itachi lead a genin squad. It’d probably be a conflict of interest for him to be Sasuke’s jonin, but he’d probably be a really good teacher for Naruto
I dunno if this is allowed for ninja to train their relative. Like you said, it doesn't sound like a good idea. Plus, when it comes to actual teams in the show, we don't see anyone who is related to their sensei. Tradition ? Sure, with the Sarutobi + Ino-shika-cho formation, but this is all.
There may be training time for anyone who belongs to a clan (that is still alive *looking at Naruto and Sasuke*) with their clan, to learn more hidden justu of said clan, like we see for the Hyuga, like we are tol Kiba and Shino have too (and likely the entire team 10).
Putting those from civilians families, like Sakura (possibly Lee and Tenten too) at a disadvantage just like this.
Naruto and Sasuke are special cases, because the Uzumaki were long wiped out and weren't even from the leaf, complicating the thing and well... any Uchiha could have trained Sasuke, when it comes to sharigan, if they were still alive. (part of why they settle for second best with giving him to Kakashi)
... On this topic, I am not sure if team 7 is good or bad for Kakashi mental health when you think of it. Sasuke is like tiny him but also a uchiha oprhan, like Obito, Naruto is the child of his sensei and acts like Obito... the only arguably different one, at least back then, is Sakura, that is quite different from Rin, but does grow up to become more similar...
This was such great story telling! You have all the characters I want more from…so much more!!!!
thanks so much!
Please take your salvation seriously. If you haven't read at least three books of the Bible yet, please consider today. The first book of each testament and one you chose yourself, I'd say that's an important minimum amount for a mustard seed of faith, with a bit of forgiveness like Jesus Christ taught. Please, look inside. Find the light. Inside reflects outside. Love is God. God is love. Jesus Christ is Lord.
@@jamesmayle3787 no, I am God.
2:56 fugaku would prob request that theyre put on the same time because theyre friends. ino, shikamaru, and choji are on the same time because they're parents were and they all grew up together, so it's not hard to think that a similar thing would happen.
I think this version of events would be a cool way for Itachi to get his MS from “having” to kill Shusui to “protect the leaf” and then he finds out Shusui was really a spy later on to kind of replace the whole Itachi-Sasuke truth coming out situation
This is my favorite "what if" by far because of how much more of the "legendary" characters we get to see more of
Excellent "What If". A possible suggestion:
"What if Tobirama took went thru with Hiruzen's offer to be the decoy, or some case where Tobirama survived..."
“Og Hurizen was a good guy”
Cuts to Naruto sad and alone on the swing
Instead of the third edo tensei coffin being Minato getting a retcon, I prefer to believe that Madara is in the casket. And that's why hiruzen was like I can't let the third one come up
I love this because, if it went this way there are so many more interesting characters for development! Id love to see it
Wooo! 45-minute video about Shisui!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
I'm 1000% along for the ride!
This has to be one of my favorite videos of yours, and on UA-cam in general
Great analysis and theory. There are alot of small ways this timeline can derail/diverge but the core of your theory is spot on. Honestly whatever happens during naruto’s birth and right after dictates the rest of the show and blaming the uchiha definitely was not the move. Hiruzen really needed to kick out danzo.
17:14
*G O O D* The only good Danzo, is a dead Danzo
Based on this headcanon/theory, without Kurama, with both his parents alive growing up, would Naruto even have Talk no jutsu in the first place, and thus either he ends up killing Nagato or getting killed by him?
I guess plot armor steps in if that's the case, so then Naruto kills Nagato.
i mean without pein just Nagato i feel like naruto could kill him
@@Zarah.Mornom Yeah. Naruto wouldn't have Talk no jutsu if he didn't suffer as a kid, because his talk no jutsu, his ability to reach people's hearts comes from being able to relate to other people's pain and suffering.
And since he experienced pain like most of people he used talk no jutsu on (and worked) but decided to improve and save and care for others, he became credible enough to be listened to.
***In this headcanon/theory, at least
Minato would still be alive, along with the 2 sanin, more than enough to stop, pain/nagato. Minato said during the pain fight that, madara/tobi was the real threat. Also naruto out smarted pain when they where both chakra exhausted with shadow clones. So a sage Naruto nd Minato combo could pull of some crazy feats.
@@DieHard1912 Cool, though I based my comments on the theory/headcanon from the video, which says that Minato died from shielding Naruto from the chakra rods.
But yeah, that's cool too.
@@Red_Wright1357 good thing it’s a theory/headcannon.. because it would be a shitty story if minato got killed by chakra rods from someone he thought was less of a threat than than a one sharigan madara/tobi… also goes to say sage Naruto would wash even tho his whole story counts on sage Naruto messing up…
My man, idk if u read comments but 2 things:
• Master audio is too quiet on this video.
• When u merge the music so it can loop on itself it takes too long. Try to synchronize the peaks of the audio and then merge it for like 2 secs and it will work better. Cheers
I’m glad instead of hating you helped him out you a real one, this is one my favorite UA-camrs I been watching for awhile so him improving is always better for us the audience
Minato is an excellent sensor Ninja and is a Uber genius and would quickly figure out that the six paths were being controlled and he would then find and kill Nagato and take his Rinnigan foiling Akatsuki's plan
My question is would Kisame be partnered with Shisui and would they develop a bond similar to the one Kisame had with Itachi?
I'm honestly not sure... I think Kisame and Itachi's bond was the way it was because Itachi was just obscenely OP and one of the few people on Earth Kisame saw as his superior in terms of power/skill, I don't think Shisui could match that
@@ColoradoK_117 I’m like 99% sure shisui is said to be equal if not more talented than itachi, so he would be absolutely superior to kisame
Kisame was afraid of Itachi that was their bond
I also doubt that Shisui would lose to Obito, at least I wouldn't think he would since he was on par with Itachi and I wanna doubt that Itachi would lose to Obito as well. But honestly the power scaling is confusing to me.
I'd also like to believe that Shisui wouldn't be stupid enough to use his MS on Nagato and would instead talk no jutsu like Naruto, and before Nagato was persuaded Obito kills him and battled Shisui for awhile, fled before being caught in the genjutsu and still declared war on the Uchiha. Because Shisui was said to be on par with Itachi in intelligence I'd hate to think he'd waste his last remaining eye on someone less importance like Nagato.
@@ColoradoK_117 You forgot also the... weird kinship of "we killed our own people" thing they had, that Shisui wouldn't have...
Something I've been pretty curious about but it probably doesn't deem a video but was Obito giving Kakashi his eye the starting point of people taking other peoples eyeballs, like Danzo and Ao and the Cloud trying to take Hinata.
Kakashi would probably be a better teacher too, because he didn't lose his entire team, he still has Minato, and because Minato isn't hokage, they'd probably have more time to actually work out kakashi's trauma rather than shoving him into ANBU and making everything ten times worse.
I am sure Danzo would have found a way to mess everything up even in this timeline
This is a fucking awesome storyline holy shit
I think minatu would be able to find tobi (obito) anytime he want. Sens minato did mark obito with his flying raishin and i think obito would be captured
Exactly so no 4th wat
@@BLACKQUEEN1ON1 yup
I’ve been asking for this video for months and omg you did not disappoint!! Great job Nick!
My one issue is how often orichimaru referred to saske as the "perfect vessel", he wanted saskes body due to the strength and him being an Uchiha therefore I belive orchimaru will still go after saske but saske would be way less willing to join
He was the perfect vessel but with itachi and fugaku still being alive he’d be harder to obtain. And the uchiha clan would still be alive and there may be better options such as someone similar to itachi

There’s a lot of what if’s you can look back and hypothesize could/would change w/slight adjustments once you’ve see the original ending and outcomes, this version included, some for the better, some for the worse. In my opinion, one of the things that could have made the biggest (potentially positive) differences in the Nauruto world, for several characters/groups of characters (think the Uzumaki’s, & Uchicha’s, etc.) was for Hiruzen Sarutobi to have some sense smacked into him during the second half of his reign as Hokage and make better choices. Despite having the trust of the village and power of the Hokage, he essentially let lower ranking officials run the show and control his decisions (yes he’s supposed to consult with them, but he basically become’s Danzo’s lapdog), which lead to one bad decision after another that cause a lot of unnecessary death, destruction and chaos. Not only did he flub his leadership duties, he failed his duty as a ninja when he allowed Orochimaru to escape Konica when he couldn’t bring himself to kill his precious student turned mad scientist. Any ordinary ninja would be locked up for letting that happen. And finally the way that Naruto was raised was uncomprehensible. He was the son of a Hokage and yet was given the bare minimum in resources and attention and was basically ignored and orphaned since birth (like why would you do that to a child that holds such a dangerous weapon inside him!) he really failed Kushina and Minato in raising Naruto and it can’t even be said it was for secrecy since Naruto is the biggest open secrect in Konoha and throughout the series has not much hesitation sharing with others what’s inside of him. Maybe Hiruzen was getting to old and his mind was to deteriorated or something but he really scuffed things up in Konoha and Aron d the ninja world with some of of his poor decisions and hesitancy to implement his authority,
Right
Love your “What if” theories. Your so descriptive that I can listen to it while driving and picture everything going on perfectly👏
So…. How many hidden Shinobi Village headbands do you have?
41:16 *except madara, who says "no you"* I laughed soo hard i thought I waked up my neighbors 😂😂
I always wondered why a hygua hasn’t become Hokage
They're too busy putting torture seals on their younger siblings
I just realized all the root members committed sebuko when Madara did infinite tsukuyimi since it's genjutsu
This was actually one of the things NCHammer got wrong; IIRC there is no suicide seal on the Root members; they have a seal that paralyzed (but does not kill) them if they attempt to leak information. Similarly, Danzo doesn’t have any such seal; Sasuke places him under two genjutsu during their fight successfully.
I'd love to see Madara's internal conflict of fighting Hokage Fugaku, the ELECTED Uchiha Hokage meaning the entire village Senju and otherwise selecting an Uchiha to lead the village Madara loved so much
Hell, would he even fight the cancelling of the endo tensei actually, upon seeing it ? Maybe it would weaken his resolve, since he was kinda proven wrong too as a result ? (especially if you also left room to some talk no justu... Hell, imagine if somebody told him, to his face, that most of the actions he did, only lead to more problems than anything for Konoha, who would have thrived better without it.)
I would probably think, that he may rethink his plan if an Uchiha that inherited the will of fire and became an Uchiha, if not and he still continues his plan, i wonder what the war arc happens, imagine the the Hokages getting edon tenseid and saw an Uchiha Hokage with him
This one is the first one I commented on…it was dope!!!🔥🔥🔥
As always a good video keep on bringing em Nick !!! A question, you said ( in the begging) that minato served 2-3 years but didn’t he only serve 9 or 11 months before the Kurama/Obito attack ?
I think he was only talking about the ninja war
911 months 😂
You're forgetting that Minato marked Obito with his FTG seal and Konoha would have hunted him down after the attack.
So many great threads. I appreciate all the thought put into the events of the whole timeline. You still left out Orochimaru! Konoha would have a tremendous amount of firepower with all the Uchija's, both Minato and the Third Hokage and Fukaku. Something horrible about Obito killing Shisui is that Obito would have access to the Kotoamatsukami. However, I also believe Shisui would have used his second use of Kotoamatsukami to either beat Obito or to have been set to activate after death so that his body (and eyes) return safely to the Uchiha clan. That way he makes sure Itachi gets his own Mangekyu and Shishui's eyes are not in enemy hands. I would also make that P ain somehow able to disrupt the flying Raijin seals so that every time Minato teleports, he would feel a stab of Nagato's chakra, just so that the battle is more interesting. Love the way both Naruto and Sasuke get their amps at the end. They mirror each other. And Sasuke would have more interesting Magekyu abilities than Amateratsu, given Itachi wouldn't have modified Sasuke's Mangekyu. By the way, Itachi taking on Kabuto seems reasonable given Kabuto wouldn't have as much info on Itachi, and I still give Itachi is the man who draws himself. If there are many Uchijas, and you have Tsunade Senju at your side, I could imagine a side branch where Fugaku tells Tsunade of the Uchija tablet, and what goes on after would be quite a lot of speculation. In short, great video, and full of possibilities, and so I like how you tackled the whole storyline. Please keep it up.
But in this video Shisui already used both of his kotoamatsukamis
Danzo was put under Sasuke genjutsu and didn't slice himself open, that's how you can tell he never used his seal upon himself. He probably wouldn't do it regardless of circumstances. He isn't a field agent.
This was awesome. I enjoyed this idea. Please do continue doing this. What if danzo became hokage? Would the hidden leaf eventually find it's downfall during Naruto's legacy? I imagine it becoming a way more military style village
Honestly, I think Naruto won't get to go out of the Leaf after Danzo is Hokage. He was kinda showed to be against it
32:56
You forgot that Deidara would probably also go after Kushina to get the Nine-Tails. He might at least need that as his alibi to the other Akatsuki for going there at all.
No need to hide the hairline lad your a good lookin fella
"THATS AN 80 POUND PITBULL BABY!!!!!!!!"-nick 2022
I wanna see you do a fan theory video.. and see which ones you think are plausible
Damn son, this Video was an absolute BANGER! Dude that story was epic, hell yeah!
Reupload?? U put this up yesterday didn’t u
Ye but he accidentally deleted it
I've always had this exact question.
Fugaku being Hokage just seems like the exact right move to make.
Minor point of correction: Jiraiya did not know nagato was part of the akatski and would not know that the akatski have the rinnegan and he was shocked to find that after he infiltrated
I think Fugaku Uchiha as Hokage would have been awesome as we would see how instrumental the Uchiha were much earlier than in the main timeline. Plus, Sasuke and Naruto are close friends, essentially brothers in everything except blood through the Will of Fire, and I love it! Love your take on this idea, NCHammer 23, and love the pitbull.
44 minute video about my favorite character. Beautiful
Happy to help
HE is your favorite character? That sux. U know, since he only exists in early early Naruto.
Mate that was a sick what if scenario! Keep up the great work! Cheers!
“Kinda NPC Villagers” iruka sensei would disagree
💀
Yes I do believe making Fugaku Uchiha would have saved a bunch of peoples life and make Konoha a much better place to live in.
Is this a remake?
I assume. The video yesterday was cut off at the end
This story is fantastic. This "what if" series is money. You gotta keep this going
Danzo didn’t have beef with the uchiha. He had beef with them after they had a coup and he figured also that a uchiha not one of them but a uchiha was the reason why the nine tails was released. He killed shisui bc he felt like it would of been a waste and then let the uchiha know the leaf knows about the coup and be force to fight a civil war than a coup
They didn’t have a coup…and kill bc it would’ve been a waste???then why not just let him do it….cause he didn’t want it to happen
I’ll agree but I’m also thinking that since danzo is old enough to know hashirama and tobirama he would be old enough to know about the senju and uchiha wars and since the senjus breaded in kohona but the the uchihas danzo could think they are gonna try to take over now that the senju are gone and no 1 clan can truly fight against them and since danzo want kohona itself to be number 1 a rouge clan that is not part working with the village like the hyuga could be scary to a governor like danzo. And what’s worse than infighting/civil war? So before it become a problem he would snuff them out. So even tho I agree with your logic I get the feeling that danzo would always be afraid of what the uchiha could do to the village
@@josegar30 one of danzo best friend was a uchiha.
nonononononononono danzo orchestrated the coup specifically to harvest of the eyes of the uchiha, he was ready with a full squad of ninja to pluck their eyes out after the massacre
@@NCHammer23 makes sense
The third casket has been the greatest overlooked plot hole of all Naruto. It can't be the fourth hokage, he was already sealed by the reaper death seal
I like the idea of Fugaku becoming Hokage. I think he would make life better for the Uchiha and inherit a deeper love for the people in the village who are not Uchiha. He never really seemed like a bad guy. His position put pressure on him.🤔
Bruh.... Shadow Clone Perfect Sage Flying Raijin Naruto sounds fire
I LOVE these "What If..." scenarios you're doing, and I want to drop my two cents on some things that may be a "what if..." to the "what if..."
With Fugaku being hokage, and being aware of the effort Minato put in during the 3rd GSW, it would be a lot like (maybe less menacing) Hiruzen and Danzo being Hokage and Shadow Hokage. This would be the pre-Boruto era dynamic duo of all time. Minato may be comfortable with killing, but with Naruto being born, the Akatsuki intel being delivered via Jiraiya/Shisui, I'd bet Minato would more than likely sound Danzo, take over Root (especially with Kushina's help by destroying those burdening seals placed on all Root members), and implement a more effective shadow force that would become Minato's aide. Fugaku would be too busy quelling the tension that the Uchihas still have towards the Leaf, so Minato's acts as Shadow Hokage would benefit him greatly.
Since Sasuke is technically older than Naruto, Naruto may be friends with him, but would look up to Sasuke as a rival to be far better than him since he has a Sharingan as his handicap. Even with Itachi alive and training his younger brother, Sasuke would STILL hold some kind of rivalry with Neji since the Hyuuga consider themselves the strongest clan in the Leaf (challenge accepted).
As for teams, Naruto may still be teamed up with Sakura, but I think the best fit would be Hinata as their third member, with Sasuke as their team captain. ~Note: if Sasuke is more progessively talented in this timeline, then he SHOULD become a Chuunin/Jonin early enough to run Team 7, not Kakashi. He'd probably run Kurenai's team, since tracking would be more his specialty. With the new Team 7 with three powerful clans, and a massively talented chakra-contolling (and possibly genjutsu-mastering) Sakura, that team would OP AF. There's a lot of possibilities running through this "what if...", and I would truly enjoy collaborating with Hammer on some of these, if given the opportunity.
Loved this hypothetical story and the rationalization you used
I watched this whole video from start to finish and I LOVED it. Only problem I see is that Minato would moust likely kill Obito in their fight during nine tails attack or he would just telleport to him after that whole deal and kill him then (I feel like 2. option is more likely because there is no one more suitable for tracking Obito and fighting him in whole village then Minato, plus he already tagged Obito and marked him during battle). If he tracks Obito, witch he would since he almost killed his wife, he would no diffed him, afterwards he might fall in depression since it was his pupjl who started a war because Minato himself, fastest shinobi in the world, was not fast enough to save him and Rin. This would create fantastic dinamic between Minato and Nagato down the line (I would say that Nagato would still form akacuki since black zecu is still ploting revival of Madara/Kaguha).
I would binge watch this version in a heartbeat
Bro wtf you definitely get a like for this one 😂. The Fugaku/ Saske moment where he gets his eternal mangeko was very smart
If the third hokage knew what danzo was doing why didn't he stop him danzo literally was able to do whatever he wanted to do throughout the whole show?
third and danzo were lovers . when you are in love you ignore some of your lover's imperfection .
the what ifs are fuckin gas. im here for it man.
What about Sakura? I mean I don’t think she would have a crush on sasuke since he’s not emo and she wouldn’t be a jerk to Naruto. But would she have still have been trained by tsunade? So would Sakura and sasuke be together in this theory of yours or not now that sasuke is not a jerk to Sakura?
crush = yes
jerk = no
train = yes
together = hell no
I can see Sakura still training under Tsunade in this timeline after hearing about how powerful Tsunade is.
I'd personally either want her to get together with Naruto or just go off and do her own thing with leading the hospital as head medic.
Sakura would probably still has a crush on him, but not the same intensity with main canon
The things we really need is a full series of a what if I mean full theatrical story
What if Madara was appointed first Hokage??
This is one of your best videos man! I hope you could make this into a full blown in depth series like how SaladSaiyan does so with Dragon Ball
Without Sasuke there Kabuto wins easily. The sound genjutsu was GG without them being able to look in each other's eyes. I get your point though power wise Sasuke doesn't matter but for that reason he needs to be there
Not to mention the many many times Kabuto slammed Itachi with the cave parts he was controlling and Itachi being Edo allowed him to regenerate
Orochimaru is still alive though and lanugo wouldn’t have gotten his dna or sage mode so it would be an easier battle for itachi
He really said making fugaku uchiha instead of making fugaku hokage, twice
Serious question: Couldn’t itachi use his newly unlocked MS ability and cast a tsykuyomi that keeps Kabuto in a genjutsu that makes him relive his life and mistakes making him realize his path in life was flawed? Instead of izigmai?
^Especially in the regular timeline where he had MS for much Longer and was reanimated meaning he had infinite chakra to make an even more powerful tskuyomi genjutsu
Kabuto was immune to all genjutsu because he removed his eyes
That "Orochimaru giving Sasuke a hicky" has me 😂😂😂
