You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
That was pretty weird. Didn't even Madara (who he was with a lot) wonder when he made a contract with the hawks? I was gonna bring up Pain's summoning path, but that was kind of different. At least Naruto will have some long range techniques to combat Sasuke's extreme range (along with the speed). Hahaha, and he is still officially a genin. You would think someone would give him some sort of backdoor promotion.
