Right. Simplified to... Plot...
No, plot is the entire story itself from start to end, Naruto getting Kurama was plot, Naruto being Minato's son was plot, Obito not being dead due to his MS activating is plot, Naruto befriending all the TB's is plot, Sasuke leaving Konoha for revenge is plot.
ALL of these things could have adverse consequences if they hadn't happened but they did happen because this is the plot Kishi had laid out from the start, despite what most people here think he isn't going this 1 week at a time he's not trey Parker and Matt Stone, Kishi has had the start middle and end of Naruto planned out since back when he started drawing and writing it.
People need to quit relying on "It was plot" as an excuse to complain when an event doesn't transpire the way they want it to. You know why the TB didn't TBB spam Madara, because Kishi wanted it to be more elaborate than that and also because Madara's fan would stop them.
