On a side note, it's true that Naruto and Sasuke are only 17 and can only get stronger from here. This in my opinion, is just ridiculous. Before they got their Rikudo upgrades, the only ones alive who could match them individually were Killer Bee, Gai after unlocking at least 7 gates, and maybe Kabuto. Now though… no force on the planet can stop them except each other. It's just too much power for two teenagers to have...

I don't mind them having a lot of power, but their growth (as well as most of the konoha 11) seem to be way out of proportion to the rest of the characters in the series (even other ashura and indra incarnates). I have noticed that most other chunin (even jonin) in the series are picked off rather easily (kunai, shuriken, etc) while the rest of the konoha XI (except Neji ) survive the 4th great shinobi war without a scratch.
