What timeline error? Naruto being Hokage before Sarada's birth? We don't actually know when he became Hokage, The Last is done by SP so it's just like filler and it doesn't confirm anything 100%.

Also it could be that this is just an optical illusion and she isn't really pregnant.
It was stated in 700 that he became hokage relatively recently but it already doing great

1) The Last is canon and you know it. It has been posted numerous times on this forum (even with a video I believe) that Kishimoto rewrote the story himself
2) About the timeline , we have debated this on some other thread also. Best case scenario , Naruto became Hokage between the ending scene of the Last (where Himawari and Bolt are running towards him) and 700. Now this has the following consequences :-

a) Sakura could not be pregnant in this meeting as Bolt and Salad are roughly the same age. So the people who are saying that Sakura is the mother because ahe was pregnant are wrong.
b) If Salad was indeed Bolt's age at that time, she could roughly be in the 4-6 year range, in which case she should remember meeting Sasuke and being with him before that. She does not. Why ? Timeline error by Kishi or is it something else ? Now it could simply be error in timeline and she could really be Sasuke and Sakura's daughter. Or she may have something to her origin we dont know about and Kishimoto didn't actually screw up the timeline. This could also connect to the plot as to why Bald guy wanted her (maybe for some purpose related to her origin which we don't know about). Would also explain the loss of birth records. Or she could simply be Sasuke and Sakura's daughter and her birth may not be connected to plot. Either way , I will wait for clarification before jumping to conclusions :rolleyes:

How is this wrong? Hinata isn't shown here, she may be pregnant with Bolt or have just had him. It does not say how long ago the flashback is, my guess is right before Sarada was born, as Sasuke left soon after. Meaning, Sakura could very well be pregnant with Sarada in these panels.

Watch the Last, Naruto was not Hokage at least until Bolt was 4-6 years old and he was Hokage in this meeting.

Please do. You can ask around, others who have watched will confirm. Ask about the scene at the end
I don't understand your logic.

The epilogue of The Last makes you think Naruto became Hokage when Bolt was about 5 or 6 years old?

That doesn't work that way in my opinion, I mean, we can say he was Hokage by then, but what tells you he had just became Hokage at the time of the short epilogue? IMO he could have become Hokage far before that, I don't see what is refuting that.

Face on that mountain bro. His wasn't there in the Last's ending scene. That scene shows Bolt and Himawari running to play with him.

Good point.

But now, when I watched it in the cam version I thought Naruto was wearing the Hokage cloak or something, I don't really remember what was it, but I just watched the scene in HD I am not sure if he was Hokage by then:

[video=youtube;mytzl737iJY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mytzl737iJY[/video]

How did you tell?

PD: Watch it in Youtube, not here, It worked bad for me at least.

The video you linked us not running on my mobile, maybe due to crappy speed. But I have HD on my laptop.
Just watched again. 6 faces on the mountain and no hokage attire. Hokage have cloak and hat , that Naruto does not have..

If I understood you reasoning correctly, to counter the possibility that Sakura is pregnant in the flashback of chapter 5, Naruto not only needs to be Hokage by the epilogue of The Last but to have acquired the position recently.

So, Sakura could be pregnant again right?

It's a timeline error if she is pregnant.

It can still work if sarada is 4-6 years old because sauske has been away doing research, but if she is pregnant with sarada now kishi is screwed.

yeah, she's preggo. That's why she's wearing her one piece and not her usual konoha clothing. Unless she was dressing super casual for a 5 kage summit
Uh, she wore that in chapter 700 and 701.

Indeed. That timeline error just further verifies the fact that this plot was contrived to milk the series further.

OT: Yeah, she was.
Its just a drawing error. She is thin in the other panels.

Reread chapter 700. He became Hokage very recently according to Kakashi's exchange with Gai and Naruto's exchange with Bolt.
