I don't think his editor would care when he finishes. I mean its one of the most popular series in the world and if Kishimoto wanted to keep going I am pretty sure they would let him seeing how it would only bring them in more money.
Kishimoto's writing was still good even after his dad's death..........in fact he made the chapter "Because I am his father" just to have Minato Epic Fail by giving the Kyuubi to BZ and therefore failing his son.
I really think Kishi is just tired of this story.
Well he has been writing it for over a decade, I think he is hitting his limits.
For 1, naruto don't give a **** and he do whatever he want. Getting arrested is a joke to him. His lil talk-no-jutsu would've made the elders feel guity, so he should've done that.
And i knew you was about to say that. Again, this is naruto, he don't listen no matter what.
He listens now, its called growing up.
Naruto isn't aware of some magical TNJ power he has, he just does it when he is in battle and he backs it up with actions.
What was Naruto going to argue, that they should feel bad for putting down a rebellion and stopping a world war?
First they would deny they had anything to do with it and second, most characters think that Itachi did the right thing.
Naruto has nothing to argue against them over, and on top of that he doesn't even know who the elders are.
Maybe you don't realize this but Naruto has never met them and has barely heard of them.
He only knew Danzo made Itachi do it, and Danzo died before Naruto got back to the village.
