Aside from it being slow paced for a monthly manga, it's beginning to take itself away from the main theme of the original idea. Ninja using chakra to develop ninjutsu through hardwork and dedication. Now it's becoming too technologically dependant.

Let's be honest with ourselves here. Naruto stopped being about hard work and dedication as soon as it became very clear you could hit the genetic lottery and have magic eyes that could cause a planet-level extinction event. Or be like Naruto and through genetic lottery and divine intervention, become a god?

As for making use of technology. To quote an orc; "Times change." In the likely event someone does come out of nowhere with eyes that can cause an extinction event, do you want to pray you've trained a bunch of kids enough to blow them all away with their genetic lottery superpower, or do you wan to make sure you have a superpower on your own?
