@Rachin123, I know that your hatred/dislike for Sasuke may not allow you see the bigger picture. I am not trying to justify Sasuke and make you like him, but please hear me out: You say Sasuke is selfish. What if I told you that Naruto is, in a sense, as well? Don't get me wrong, Naruto is by no means a selfish character. And you're very correct with your statement that Naruto has to grow up and realize he can't save everyone. Remember Naruto's discussion with Sasuke before the latter requested the EMS? Naruto said if they fight, they both die. Naruto would rather protect and save all of his friends before becoming Hokage. Naruto is so fixated on saving Sasuke, claiming they would both die in their fight. The reason why that is selfish on Naruto's part is because if he claims both will die, there will be no one to stop the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Naruto has to learn to choose between Sasuke or the rest the world. Like Madara said to Obito, things don't always go your way. Even if you are the titular character. So Naruto's choice is, should he die with Sasuke, or save the rest of the world? Knowing Naruto, when given two options, he'll make a third option, and say "I'll end the brothers' (Indra and Asura's) feud right here!" and stuff like that. I'm not defending or making Sasuke a benevolent hero, I'm saying that Sasuke isn't the only one with the "nerve" and "audacity" to achieve his dreams.
