Naruto can easily create 1000 shadow clones if it takes 20 minutes to overview and sign single piece of paperwork with 9000 pieces of paperwork, that would be 125 days of total work, but with Naruto's ability to create shadow clones, it definitely wouldn't take 125 days for Naruto to do said paperwork at a 1000 clones he could get all that paperwork done in 3 hours and ya this would result in the original body experiencing all of the draw backs of all of that paperwork, naruto would than just pass out and wake up in a couple hours

Lol, CEO's wouldn't even have half the work load of taking care of a village with over ten thousand people. A CEO doesn't give each individual employee a task. He doesn't also work on funding. The only thing he or she might do, is paper work which is likely not even close to a Hokage's never ending load and deal with the most important affairs, but he never does so alone. Idk what you're trying to play, but I'll say it again, Hiruzen only being Hokage for 4 hours a day to take care of an infant that can be up from 8-10 hours? You guys gotta prove that. Cause according to Naruto, Iruka was the first person that he formed a bond with.

Didn't he act this way with Asuma too and Asuma got pissed at him for being distant and not giving acknowledgement and all, and left Konoha for awhile? For one, i'm pretty sure Asuma leaving the village isn't canon. When Naruto and others use the word acknowledge, it's referring to Naruto's existence as said from Hiruzen to Iruka who literally tells Iruka Naruto wants someone to acknowledge his existence. This is why he pulled pranks because everyone would acknowledge him when he did something bad, but Iruka was the first person to truly acknowledge him said by Naruto. Which means Hiruzen never openly acknowledged Naruto and kept him at an arms distance.
