So I've been thinking a lot about where the Naruto spin-offs could go plot-wise. It seems like everything Bolt could handle, his dad already took care of in the main series. Then I recalled the most iconic anime of all time: Dragonball Z.
Remember old school Dragonball?
No. Of course you don't. Nobody does.
But in the original Dragonball, there were no mention whatsoever of saiyans. It was just martial arts and magic with a little sci-fi thrown in. At the end, Goku killed King Piccolo, he and Chi Chi got hitched, everybody lived happily ever after and the show ended.
Except, Shonen Jump was like "F**K that," and told Toriyama to continue the series. So, out of F**king nowhere, he gave Goku a brother named Raditz, and revealed that they were both members of an alien-warrior race called the saiyans. Also these saiyans are so strong they make every other threat to the human race look like a piss in the wind in comparison.
So if push comes to shove, Kishi could always go that route. I mean, we never did get to hear Minato's backstory. Or even who his family was, for that matter. Seems like a suspicious thing for Kishi to just forget about.
...kinda like how he forgot about Bolt's and Himawari's Byakugans.
