Co-Kages

[InfiniteMugen]

So I had a simple thought in my boredom.... I think it would of been cool for naruto and sasuke to do away with certain things about the current system... like a single titled kage...both of them should of been titled kage.. now not only does that give naruto his cooperation, it also gives sasuke a bit of change and revolution(albeit on a much much smaller scale than what he was thinking) the main reason I wanted to bring this up is cause what do you think would of happened if madara and hashi where co kages instead of just one? I mean I get there's always someone in the shadows(a la danzo
And sasuke) but I think if they where both titled kage things might of gone differently and the uchiha might not have gone down the road they did... granted that was more after hashi and during tobiramas reign but imagine if tobirama also had a co kage that was an uchiha... anyways thoughts? And yea it's kinda a sh t thread but hey... it's new

No, the chain of command would be screwed and soldiers would be in chaos.

Honestly I think sasuke thinks too lowly of himself to accept the title but there both the hokage in there own ways

Hense his title of Hokage's Shadow. I honestly think Sasuke prefers it this way. Hokage's are more than just leaders of their Villages. They are suppose to represent what the youth are to aspire to. Sasuke if more a lone wolf in that respect. If something were to happen to Naruto though, you can be sure people would look to him to take up the Hokage hat.

Like Gaara, I think this is his period of redemption. To set right the wrongs of his past. And the people are recognizing that.

As to the OP's point: I think Sasuke had the right idea to an extent. Do away with the Kage rule. While there should be a chain of command it should probably be more like a council than the authoritarian setup they have now.

So one is an official Hokage and the other is Hokage in all but name?

Pretty much

You think so? How would having two be worse if say for ex. The uchiha where already following hashi alone... wouldn't have they felt more part of the village had mads been a kage as well? Although I can kinda see what your saying with sasuke. As some people might still be iffy, but by the time narutos kage I think sasuke is pretty much forgiven

This is true, but I think if they where both known publicly as leaders or kages it would bring change to the flawed system

Exactly what I was trying to get at, getting rid of one kage, or maybe even the kage title in general to show both of them leading through cooperation would be pretty much what naruto was wanting, but also revolutionize the system itself... plus as mentioned, even though sasuke himself might not think himself worthy of the role of kage anymore because of his past, it would set a good example as far as redemption and forgiveness... just some thoughts

That's pretty much how it is now, but I think it'd be diff if he's publicly known as a kage as well

What type of changes do you mean

They have two different beliefs. Besides, Shikamaru is already advising Naruto. I don't see Sasuke being any further help as Co-Kage.
