Well according to Hagoromo the original idea of Chakra was to make people understand eachother. Naruto is the living embodiment of Ninshu. So essentially, Naruto has a sort of King's Haki, where he can basically convert people through the power of Mind. Except that his "ability" to change people's minds looks quite synthetic, forced, unconvincing and basically out of touch with reality. Now I know reality doesn't count for much in a manga about ninjas who can throw fires from their mouths. But nonetheless, the emotions, intentions and ambitions of the characters pretty much match those of people in the real world. And in the real world, Talk no Jutsu is nothing more than idealist garbage.
