There weee events that took place heavily implying that initially Hiruzen raised Naruto: Hiruzen, relatively, is a man with integrity, and Hiruzen promised Kushina he’d look after her. In the first episode it’s shown he was always watching what happened to Naruto. When Naruto became Hokage he said he ended becoming/sounding like Hiruzen, not Minato or Tsunade or even Jiraiya.

Except there's a huge hole in your theory. As shown in Boruto and as shown with Tsunade, a Hokage literally has little to no time outside a Hokage's duties. It's literally the theme of Boruto, that Naruto never has time for him and barely even goes home and he has dozens of Shadow Clones working with him. We seen Hiruzen hand out missions to Genin, we see him visiting the Academy, we see that Hokages have to deal with massive never ending loads of paper work, when would he ever have time for Naruto?
