and? what exactly does that mean or represent? his strength?
by your logic, we should all put Naruto number one forever and say :
"Hiruzen is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Madara is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Obito is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Rikudou Sennin is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Tobirama is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Itachi is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Nagato is a fodder compared to Naruto"
"Minato is a fodder compared to Naruto"
what YOU failed to understand is his current strength is nowhere near those above and could easily be beaten to death by them WITHOUT plot's nonsense. you shouldn't put something that hasn't been proven or hasn't happen yet as a fact. him being a protagonist IS THE REASON why people are underrating him. for a protagonist, he should be at least strong as Minato by now [put in note that Kakashi claiming Naruto surpasses Minato JUST BECAUSE Naruto managed to achieve Wind Release is a complete bullshit and Kishi obviously used his ass to find ideas in Naruto's strength because if that's the level of Minato then I guess everyone here has overestimate him] but instead, his techniques are weak, overusing Kage Bunshin and making Rasengan look weak. the only good thing he's achieved are Sage Mode.
now, do you understand or are you even more butthurt now?
by your logic, anyone who criticized someone or something by using an actual non-fanboying opinion is against it.
