I think Naruto dying like the 3rd Hokage would be pretty convenient. Then his kid would become like the next Naruto...

Naruto and father? !shocked
...
Well, i don't think, he will die and let the nine-tail be free, rather he would die by killing the nine-tail at the end, to safe -as hokage- his village.
Or it's the neverending story like volcano said: training, training, training for the sake of becoming hokage.
Another posibility is, he will change his dream of becoming hokage for something, revealed in the further story. !
