In some ways that's what Naruto is. He's the main character of Jiraiya's book. He freely adopted Jiraiya's ideal. Although there's the slight difference that long before meeting Jiraiya Naruto was already established as the unconventional ninja who wanted to capture Konoha's attention and become the Hokage. You know, I have hardly ever been impressed by Naruto in this story. He's an idiot. Jiraiya, however, was quite an asskicker in many ways. And I'm not talking about the level of power (because Naruto is already more powerful).

Sasuke... Come on. Sasuke is nothing at all. He's an avenger and that's just emptiness. Madara has his crazy dream of becoming a god and ruling over the world. You can't go much more super villain than that. He even has what it'd take to pull it off, provided his enemies don't stop him.
