Plothole or not?

[Vextres]

How come everyone just completely forget the fourth and kushina gave birth to a baby? How come Jiraya never visited naruto and no one ever wondered who narutos parents were. And i mean come on!? That was kakashi's sensei, im sure he saw the similarities

 

[Vextres]

Is there like an explination chapter?

 

[Uchiha Legacy]

Word in Konoha was that they had an abortion, so no one suspected a thing.

 

[The Paradox]

I've been wondering that as well.. but I think at one point every villager was ordered not to mention to Naruto who his parents were and what really happened because they feared the 9-tails would take over the young Naruto due to emotional instability.

lol XD coat hanger style

 

[Fuxion]

where did you get this abortion information lol

 

[Haru70]

There was no time for anyone to find out about the birth, aside from those who knew Kushina was pregnant. It happened right before the kyuubi attack. That probably contributed.

 

[hixa kuogame]

well the forth wanted naruto to be a secret so that minatos enemies would go after him
its really messed up though how jaraiya kept quiet

 

[Kαmi]

They might have thought the baby died during the attack since Kushina and Minato died, that would be reasonable, don't you think?

 

[sage mode beat down]

lol no way in hell that is right

its bulletproof this hapend man

- Jiraiya did take Naruto as his disciple as soon as he had knowledge of his existence.

- People of course did take some notice, they had to. But for this one there was definitely some plot-no-jutsu on this one.

The two died right after Naruto was born and no one knew of their birth. Some knew of the pregnancy (Sasuke's mother), but the Uchiha Massacre took the witness away. The Third died defending the secret, the wife of the third died after delivery, the ANBU members stationed were killed, and the highest of the high-ranking were forced on a Mum Order.

No one knew jack diddly bout Naruto, and the Third made dern skippy of it, yip *spits in spitoon*. Probably would have helped Naruto know that his father was the Fourth, but where would that take Naruto's ambitions and motivation?

 

[Sir Blades]

I really dont care about that anymore, i want to know who orochimaru's parents are.

 

[Fodder#4]

Jiraiya was in mourning. . ? He lost two close people and was probably out trying to find his Friend Orochimaru, who he also just lost.

Kakashi would of been in a serious depression and any reasonable person would have said no to him taking care of the child. Plus, I doubt Kakashi wanted a reminder of his sensei like that.

 

[ballerjordan]

Hiruzen told most of the higher rank ninja not to say a word about it, Jiraya obviously knew

 

[Scooby Doo]

Nah, the Third prohibited to talk about it. And he and Iruka took care of Naruto.

 

[Cosman]

Well... We know the raikage knew.

So I'm guessing Konoha is just dumb as bricks. To be completely fair, they've had like three full scale assaults launched on them over 16 years and still don't know wtf is going.

Dumbass village. That is the answer. They don't question anything

 

[-Punk-]

What i think happend was that no one new about the day kushina was gonna have naruto only a few like the third & minato , so when they died Hiruzen only saw that & a few ninjas that were with him , remember they hid everything from everyone to protect naruto & the village , so they probably told the village that the Minato & kushina died in battle with the baby too ..........#Logic #Is Bread

 

[Narutohokage7]

lol XD coat hanger style

Oh f**k, that made me choke on my drink...

OT; The real word around Konoha was that Minato was an abusive husband and that Kushina left town that night after setting the Kyuubi on him hoping to kill him and she left to go raise her son away from him.
