I don't think we need a major character to die on this one. If Naruto dies here, it'd be severely underwhelming, to me. We've already seen him and Sasuke lose against Ishiki once. This time they have intel, things will be different, but Ishiki will manage to imprint on Kawaki nonetheless... maybe he takes the village hostage, saying "I'll shrink everything in sight if Kawaki doesn't step out in the next 5 seconds", and Kawaki does so, due to his newfound love for Naruto and the Leaf.

Also I wanna see some Kakashi action, again. See, him I'd see dying. Dies for Konoha, going up against an Otsutsuki. Would never happen obvs, but I miss the Third Hokage vs Orochimaru fight.

That would bring some interesting drama to the interactions between Amado and Sumire, if the former then takes over the Scientific Ninja Weapons Division. A Sherlock/Watson type of dynamic, where Amado is brilliant yet unfeeling, and Sumire is like "you're nothing like Katasuke!" and he's like "which is why he's dead."

I wonder how that happened. Because in theory, if he's got the same blood, he's got the same talent as Jiraiya, right? So how is he able to master Sage mode? Maybe he was enhanced, somehow? Or do you think his training was just more rigorous? Also, I can't wait to see what the other toads think of the boiler Toad. Is he an exiled Myoboku toad, is he a toad from a rival mountain? Like, a lot of KK's techniques come across as a more violent version of Jiraiya's, while using the same resources (liek summonings). Who taught him?
