What do you think is the right quantity in a jutsu arsenal?
I'm talking about jutsu in a designated fighting style.
For example, Kakashi - Raikiri (finisher), Mud Wall (usual defense), copying enemy jutsu (side trick), dog summons (rare support), Kamui (ace in a hole).
I was actually thinking about how I would regulate the skillset for my version of Naruto. Basically, in my "Part 1", he started as a more refined and skilled version of Canon with some extra:
Mainly a raw chakra specialist. He accidentally learned chakra absorption, which is NOT Ninjutsu absorption (and it won't be). Think of Yoroi (the guy Sasuke fought in the Chunin Preliminaries) but Naruto honed this ability further. He's also more tactical with Henge and Shadow Clones (it helps that Naruto started at basic clones and learned Shadow Clones at a later date).
Mainly a Lightning Style user but has 1-2 offensive Wind style and one defensive Earth Style.
But as a teen, something happened in my version of a timeskip that Naruto completely remade his fighting style.
Doesn't use elemental jutsu much at all in favor of something (I won't tell but it's not a Bloodline or any other nonsense like that). This Naruto basically doubled down on non-elemental jutsu.
Doesn't rely much on clones for duels. Naruto basically expanded it into a strategic asset so he does it more for information gathering and mass communication over large distances.
This older Naruto... is actually kind of like Teen Boruto in terms of how he approach his fights. Efficiency, mobility and strategy over immediate firepower. No, this Naruto doesn't use a sword. He doesn't have Hiraishin. He doesn't even use Kurama's chakra (it's a spoiler as to why). He occasionally use claws for melee but fights more like a silent prowler rather than a wild hunter like Kiba.
