Narutois a franchise that is considered to be one of the big 3 shōnen anime and has a legacy that no oncoming series can ever dare to defeat. The story is represented well to the viewers and readers alike, butMasashi Kishimotomight have had some deeper interpretations of some elements hidden in it.

As pointed out by the user mentioned above, it is a possibility that every single member of the Akatsuki, the center protagonist faction in the series, reflects a different motivation for war, with most of them serving as a mirror to real-world motivations.
They stated how Pain and Konan pursue Peace as a motivation to go to war with other nations. This is a detail that has been explained frequently and greatly in the series, giving it validity. Furthermore, they state how Hidan pursues religion as a motive, which is self-explanatory through his characters and his representation. Then comes Kakuzu, who is said to be motivated to war in pursuit of money, which is, again, showcased well in the series.

For the remaining members of the Akatsuki, the commentator lists out what their motivations are, mentioning how Orochimaru pursues science and experimentation, Kisame goes after exposing the truth of hypocritical countries, and Itachi goes to great lengths to protect his own nation.
Lastly, the commentator states how Sasori and Deidara go after the idealistic idea of being known for bringing a democratic change that everyone will remember, with Zetsu being motivated for war to continue his lineage.

The aforementioned commentator has stated how Obito and Madara, two of the most significant protagonists in the whole franchise, aimed to force their own ideology onto the other nations to create a utopia where there would be an even and unified co-existence.
The above-listed objectives are of course some of the major reasons why these characters particularly have been made protagonists in the series. While it is not obvious at first, a deeper inspection allows the fans to find out the interpretations that Masashi Kishimoto might have left in his writing.
