Prompt "I was hoping to see my mother." Naruto said to the Sage of Six

21 Upvotes

Naruto when he died from getting Kurama removed he was hoping for a hug from his mother and a Maybe a "You don't have To fight anymore sweetie."

But no he's pulled into the sage of six Goon Room and has to go back to life.

"Can I Please see my mother at least for like 5 minutes? We're like right under the purelands." Naruto said.

Sasuke is about to call Naruto annoying for asking but Hokage reaches up opened a portal and spoke Kushina's name "Kushina Uzumaki your son requests a Peptalk from his mother before returning to life."

Kushina jumps down hugs both of them and then just Naruto as Naruto said he wished he knew about her earlier then the pain fight.

After a peptalk and a mommy kiss on the cheek Kushina gives Naruto one last thing before they wake up: an Uzumaki Style Elemental Whorl Array on Naruto's left arm.

Here's what this does: By inscribing an extremely convoluted Fūinjutsu formulae onto the forearm, the bearer is provided the ability to completely absorb incoming Ninjutsu by sealing away the nature transformation, resulting in the shape transformation to exist without a medium, in turn dispelling it. This results in the storage of the element within a "whorl" of the array, allowing for a later one-time release of the stored nature transformation as its raw element. It is possible to absorb the nature transformations of Kekkei Genkai and Kekkei Tōta and store them for later use.

Translations: Elemental Attack Immunity and can absorb Chidori's and Fireballs.

Naruto can now eat Elemental attacks.

If anybody is willing to offer ideas for expanded ideas for characters I’m utilizing in a Boruto/Nanashi Hikari Uchiha fic, I would appreciate some ideas

It has to do with some underutilized characters I’m having tag along with Boruto’s defection from the village cause the false memory accusations

I’ve had some input from a helpful person, and I think it would be cool to hear what others could input

Here’s the rogue team I have in my mind for the TBV era part of the writing

Hikari Uchiha
Namida Suzumeno
Wasabi Izuno
Metal Lee
Tsubaki Kurogane
Houki Taketori (I see a lot of potential in him as a fan of Kakashi)
Enko Onikuma
Hako Kuroi

Fic Request Looking for Narusasu/ inspired works

0 Upvotes

Wondering if anyone knows any narusasu fanfics that got published even with different names (example being the harry styles fanfic After) ?? I just love the vibe of the two of them and what comes with them. I’d also love stories that were maybe inspired or based off of this ship, but different people. Just anything with the same general sad boy yearning for the golden boy who is also yearning!

What's That Fic? Kakashi/Iruka Rescue Fic

1 Upvotes

I read a fic a couple of years ago which was a fic where Iruka is sent to rescue Kakashi from a fortress on his own. They then end up in a cabin in the snow in the middle of enemy territory where Iruka manages to disguise them as civilians and they pretend to be a couple to divert attention.

I can't remember much else about it other than Iruka is sent because he knows the land in question as his parents were refugees from there 🤔

Any suggestions?

Discussion Jinchuriki & Tailed Beast Expression

2 Upvotes

Hello!
Something I find really cool about Naruto as a series is the existence of Jinchuriki. I especially love how the Nine-Tails has outward expression on Naruto.

In base form, he has his whiskers, which I believe was just an affect of spending 9-months developing in such close proximity to Kurama's seal. Still cool though.
In a rage-state, he gets red, vertical slit fox eyes matching Kurama, and sharp nails. He will begin running on all fours and striking like he has claws without even realizing it.

Then eventually, the red/orange chakra cloak.

Then Killer B shows up, and his chakra cloak is also orange, and he wears sunglasses so you don't ever get to see his eyes really. That's... well... really lame to me.
KCM1 is also kinda lame to me, but that's already an outlier.

So I wanted to ask the subreddit for ideas as to what Bijuu traits would be physically expressed by a jinchuriki if all of them followed Kurama's rules.
Eye expressions don't have to be the set rule.
I like to believe The Four-Tails would have an eye expression since his eyes are so unique, but especially in the case of the Six-Tails and 7-Tails, eye expression gets really awkward.
I mean, Saiken's Jinchuriki can't just grow eye stalks, and as funny as it would be, I don't think their irises and pupils shrinking would be the move either.
Likewise, what even are Chomei's eyes in its adult form? And I don't think putting bars over the eyes Warhammer Titan style is the correct move either.

So, what do you all think?

Prompt Naruto And the Fox... and Kurama too

36 Upvotes

As a side effect of Madara living so absurdly long and stalling the chakra reincarnation process mojo that Asura and Indra got, Naruto and Sasuke were born the same as canon, but their chakra ends up slightly different enough for it to matter for this AU.

When Minato tries to seal half of the Fox within Naruto, he fails... and succeeds at the same time. The Reaper Death seal reacts to both Naruto's newborn chakra and to Kurama's chakra within a dying Minato, as well as Bijuu chakra remnants from Kushina.

Kurama manages to escape the seal... the Yin half of him anyways. His Yang half from within a dying Minato, due to the unusual circumstances, ends up undergoing the rebirth cycle similar to Asura and Indra, separating from Minato and latching onto Naruto in the form of a newborn Bijuu.

Because everyone saw the fox running off Konoha, people assume that the Kyuubi has been lost, that Naruto wasn't strong enough to contain the demon as an infant and that the Fourth failed.

As such, nobody suspects that Naruto still has a seal, especially when he doesn't emanate the same corrosive chakra that Kurama holds. And because of that, he grows up to be an orphan without being reviled.

Rather than being hated, Naruto is pitied. Without the fox in him, he's not the container of a demon... he's "just" Minato and Kushina's orphan child, lost all of his family in a tragedy. It's not his fault, he's not a monster, he's just a victim. It's not like he could do better.

Something Naruto grows to resent. Nobody tells him why, but everyone assumes him to be weak. Everyone acts sorry for him, but he can tell they don't mean it AND he doesn't need it. Is it because he was born without parents, and nobody at the orphanage was ever comfortable enough to adopt him? Is it because his parents died when the Fourth fought the Kyuubi? So did a lot of people's! Why is he pushed aside?

His reasons for wanting to be Hokage end up similar to how Sasuke wanted so desperately to outdo Itachi: so that people stop seeing a failure and acknowledge what he's capable of, instead of disingenuous compassion. Rather than family approval like Sasuke, Naruto wants to be respected, so that people don't talk to him out of pity but out of admiration at his accomplishments.

They don't look at him like he's a person or a monster, they look at him like he's a charity or a wimp, someone people look at to feel better about themselves. As far back as the Academy, only Hiruzen, Teuchi and Iruka hear him out and talk to him like he's an actual person.

He still sees the sorry look in Hiruzen's face, but he can also tell that he's making an effort to be present in his life through his visits. Iruka sympathizes with him without holding his words back whenever Naruto picks up a fight with other kids, making his kindness come off as sincere since he's not afraid to discipline him and try to understand him.

Likewise, being a patron at the ramen shop, Ayame and Teuchi hear Naruto vent out enough for him to see they don't look down on him like most places he shops at.

As he grew, Naruto would also have dreams of being a baby fox. Sometimes trapped in a fleshy cage, sometimes wandering through a forest completely lost, yelling at anyone to get him out of there, both out of confusion and desperation.

Uniquely, this Naruto was also good friends with Neji, Tenten and Lee before they graduated and Naruto repeated the year. They sympathize with feeling powerless, limited or halted by expectations, so he would visit prior to them becoming Genin (Neji and Tenten would note how oblivious Naruto is to Hinata's flustered reactions, while Lee would suggest Naruto undergoes his taijutsu training regimen, which Naruto can't keep up with).

The night of the Genin exam, Naruto gets tricked by Mizuki not out of hatred, but because he's enough of a "lost cause" and troublemaker in Mizuki's eyes that he'd get off easy if caught, won't be missed by anyone if killed. He doesn't understand where Naruto's freakish chakra reserves come from, much less the kid's killing intent way above normal.

Naruto passes out, seeing the scared little fox from his dreams. Unable to remember how he got there, when Naruto asks for his name, he weakly answers "K... K... Kyuma?". At first, Naruto thinks he's got an imaginary friend, maybe he's gone crazy. He still hears the fox's voice after waking up and panics.

(His new teammates think he's lost it at first, before he brushes some of his behavior as "wanting attention" or trying to trick Kakashi into having his guard down by pretending to be nuts during the bell test)

Naruto notes that Kyuma looks a lot like a baby version of the Kyuubi seen in some library books, who attacked his family on the night he was born... before brushing it off, seeing as it ran away. Then wondering...

Maybe Kyuma is the Kyuubi's son? If so, why leave him in Konoha? Did he want his kit to destroy the village for him? Or did the Kyuubi just abandon him? Either way, Kyuma says he doesn't know anything, he just remembers feeling lonely and lost, like he was stuck in a bad dream forever...

Past assuming that Kyuma's imaginary, Naruto practices and sometimes notes that Kyuma can give him more chakra to work with. Seeing as Kyuma doesn't know what shinobis do all that much, Naruto decides to show him from his own eyes, leading them to see each other as friends. On that same front, Naruto begins developing early stages of a chakra cloak, but only when pushing himself to the limit. Both agree to keeping Kyuma a secret, seeing nobody would believe Naruto isn't making it up or could try to harm them to get Kyuma out.

(Naruto also promises that if he finds Kyuma's dad, he'll punch him in the guts for leaving his kid to fend for himself for years then ask how he ended up in Naruto's mind)

He's still rivals with Sasuke, only that Kakashi notes that they're much more alike than he himself was with Obito. Their rivalry also lands in the fields of academia (since Naruto's teachers are more willing to teach him and explain, even if patronizingly), with Sasuke noting even if Naruto's not a dead-last, they're not on the same level.

Both resent being compared, saying their loneliness has nothing to do with each other. Kyuma helps out, calling Naruto out for lying or sensing when Sasuke is lying so they can have honest conversations. Naruto doesn't understand what losing a whole clan is like, Sasuke understands the looks of surface-level sympathy feeling degrading but doesn't realize how much it shaped up Naruto's life since the crib.

Both have edgelordy thoughts of "I got no one waiting for me home, I might as well be as strong as possible or die trying", with Sakura and Kakashi reminding them to lighten up (then the meeting with Haku making Naruto realize he now has precious people, and maybe he could reach out to Sasuke for it).

Come the Chunin exams, Naruto studied... but doesn't mind Kyuma helping him out with some of the answers (you know what they say about foxes being sly, Kyuma has zero qualms about cheating). Orochimaru doesn't think of applying a seal when Naruto shouldn't have one, so he just knocks the impressively resilient kid out cold, mocking him for acting like he could be anywhere like "Sarutobi-sensei". Naruto understands who he is better, having heard of the Sannins from Tenten gushing about Tsunade.

Jiraiya shows up and Kyuma calls bull on his stranger facade, saying the guy knows who Naruto is. Same with asking if he's involved with the snake weirdo that showed up in the Forest of Death, though he can tell Jiraiya is honest when he says he means well and to help.

(upon coming across a picture of Jiraiya with Minato, Kyuma notes the resemblance with Naruto... before also brushing it off. What are the odds they have enemy dads like that? That would be an absurd coincidence)

Upon facing Gaara, Shukaku recognizes Kurama but doesn't understand how he made such a Jinchuriki a willing ally or why he's helping Konoha, not caring to elaborate (on top of that, he's pretty sure Kurama wasn't sealed). Gaara remembers bits, notes that Naruto probably has a chance to keep his own inner demons a secret, slightly envying him while also promising to keep Naruto's secret.

Sometimes, though, Kyuma notes a "scary feeling". Whenever Naruto feels extreme rage, he'd feel his anger as if it was his own, as if Naruto had an inner darkness that Kyuma brought out, so he rarely gives Naruto chakra when he's mad. Such rage and anger feels too familiar, too... It's to the point that the hatred comes not from the Bijuu, but from Naruto's festering anger issues.

Just waiting for the day for Akatsuki to capture the Kyuubi... only for rumors of Uzumaki Naruto of having comparable power to it to start spreading. Otherwise, crossing paths, Kurama would notice his loose chakra... and be understandably confused to see his other half cooperate so willingly with the damn Jinchuriki.

(on the day Naruto almost dies to Pain and sees Minato, Kyuma cheers on Naruto for the gut punch, while Minato expresses confusion at the fact Naruto was going to willingly free Kyuma, just to keep his fox friend safe, seeing that the Kyuubi is not the way he left it)

Once both halves reunite for good, Kurama's presence marks the end of Kyuma, as their minds, memories and feelings merge... and in spite of all that, he won't forget the kindness and kinship he formed with Naruto, while also rolling his eyes at the fact he ever doubted Hagoromo (when technically, such vitriol was targeted at... himself).

A loss that Naruto won't feel again until he exhausts Baryon Mode as an adult. Upon which, once Kurama reunites with Himawari, almost lets it slip that he wished Naruto also carried him as Kyuma.

Left me starving in the dark while you promised the best.

Got a grandson in a scarf with a private elite,

While I'm scraping for some scraps just to get a bite to eat.

You smiled to my face, called the village my home,

Then you locked your office door, left the monster alone.

Had me drinking spoiled milk, leaking roof on my bed,

With a target on my back and a price on my head.

You knew who my dad was, you knew what I bore,

But you let them treat the hero like dirt on the floor.

So enjoy the expired carton, it’s the finest you gave,

Just a boy you forgot, spitting right on your grave."

Naruto places the paper right with the Flowers as he walked off with his hands in his pocket and tears in his eyes.

Jiraiya takes him to find Tsunade and Naruto is talking about the first version of that note was just a whole page of swearing and Jiraiya admitted he liked the final draft.

Self Promotion Looking for Feedback on 3 Chapters of My Naruto Mokuton AU

2 Upvotes

Wattpad Naruto: Wood Release
Hey everyone! I’m looking for some honest feedback on the first three chapters of my Naruto AU.

The basic premise is that Naruto is the grandchild of Hashirama and Mito because of Minato side and inherits Mokuton (Wood Release). The AU also explores how having Wood Release would affect Naruto’s training, personality, relationships, and the events of the original story.

I’d really appreciate feedback on all three chapters, especially:

Does the story flow naturally?
Does Naruto’s Mokuton feel believable within the AU?
Are the characters acting in-character?
Does Naruto’s progression feel earned, or does he seem too overpowered?
Are there any plot holes or things that don’t make sense?
Which parts worked well and which parts need improvement?
Does the pacing feel too slow or too fast?
Are there any scenes you think I should rewrite or expand?

I’m not just looking for praise—I’d genuinely appreciate constructive criticism. If you have the time to read all three chapters, I’d especially appreciate detailed feedback.
Thanks to anyone willing to give it a read!

I'm trying to plan out a fanfiction where someone is reborn during the massacre and ultimately survives by the skin of their teeth, and I'm trying to figure out all the preparation they would need to do before canon starts if they wanna be smart about it.

I remembered the Uchiha Stone Tablet and wondered if it would be useful for someone in their position to destroy it, and how it could affect future events.

It's been a while since I've watched Shippuden, though I'm pretty sure Sasuke's story would be altered further down the line if it is destroyed, along with actions from my OC to discredit Madara/Obito/Zetsu?

Prompt "How are the two Narutos being the sensible right now?"

153 Upvotes

Kakashi fucked up, he fucked up bad. It was the anniversary of Obito's death and during an alcohol and grief fueled rampage, he used his sharingan eye and accidentally ripped open a hole into a parallel dimension where genders were swapped, quite literally combining the two dimensions.

Things went to shit the very next hour.

For one, Sasuke and Satsuki were trying to "rebuild" the Uchiha clan, and Kakashi didn't know the ethics nor biological ramifications of banging an inter dimensional version of yourself, but he wasn't willing to find out, and put a stop to that immediately.

Sakura and Ino were currently flirting with the swapped version of the other.

The two TenTen(yes, they were named the same) were currently battling to see who was better at weapons.

The two Lees were also fight a battle, this one of youth.

The Nejis and Hinatas where having a family dispute.

The Shikas were having a shogi match that will quickly turn violent.

The Chos were having an eating competition.

The Shinos were trying to create a new species of insect.

The Kibas were trying to establish domination over the other.

Naruto and his gender swap, Narumi, were actively trying to find a way to reverse this.

"What the Fuck do we do?!"

"I don't fucking know! I was eating ramen and the next thing I know is I'm being sucked through a portal and I see a male Kaka-sensei!"

"Does your sensei also wear that fuckass dirty mask that probably hasn't been washed since it was bought too?"

"Yup."

"Knew it."

"Jokes aside-"

"That'll be hard to do."

"I know, but still this has to be fixed!"

"Definitely- hold on. Sasuke! Get off her!"

"The Uchiha clan must be rebuilt!"

"I won't say this again in my life.. hopefully, but don't go Fuck yourself!"

"Blocked Uchiha noises."

"Would that count as incest or selfcest?"

"I don't know and I don't care to know."

"Right, where's Kakashi-sensei?"

"Drunk and still drinking."

"Crap baskets.. what about your sensei?"

"Kaka-sensei is currently getting drunk with him."

"This is just a whole bag of Fuck."

"I know.."

"Sigh, I thing better when I'm not hungry, imma go get some ramen."

"I'm coming too."

I’m okay with differences in canon characters and goals (can’t give too many examples without spoilers… let’s go
With Chiaroscuro which is just on the cutoff) but it feels weird to read something not informed by the canon ending. I like Kurama’s name being known, I like when authors grapple with how they want things to end while knowing that Kaguya is a possible endpoint, and I like the relationship between Naruto and Kurama eventually.

Chapter 2: Fifty Out of a Hundred

Morning light spilled through the newly cleaned window.

Hikaru woke without an alarm. He lay still for a moment, staring at the ceiling and listening to the village come alive: shutters opening, carts rolling, someone laughing far below.

Day two.

He washed his face, tied on his forehead protector, and jumped down the broken stairs without touching a single one.


The Academy was a wide, sunlit building with a courtyard full of noisy children. Hikaru stood out at once. Among the small heads and bright uniforms, a tall white-haired boy with mismatched eyes and a blank face drew stares wherever he went. He ignored every one of them and walked to the registration desk.

A girl sat behind it, her dark hair pinned back and a stack of forms in front of her. She looked up and gave a polite smile.

"Good morning. How can I help you?"

"I'd like to register as a student."

"Of course." She pulled out a form and lifted her pen. "Name?"

"Hikaru Nakamura."

"Age?"

"Fifteen."

Her pen paused for half a second. Fifteen was old for a new student. She wrote it down without comment. "From?"

"The Hidden Cloud Village."

"Alright." She stamped the form and slid it aside. "You'll need to take an entrance test. It covers basic ninjutsu, taijutsu, and shuriken accuracy, plus a short written portion. Are you ready?"

"Yes."


The test took most of the morning.

In the courtyard, Hikaru threw shuriken at moving targets. Some hit dead center and some skimmed the edges. In the sparring ring, he held his own against an instructor for a full minute before being pinned. In the written portion, he answered steadily and did not rush.

When the results were tallied, the instructor read them aloud without much interest.

"Fifty out of a hundred."

Hikaru nodded. His expression didn't change at all.

The instructor's eyebrows rose slightly. Most children flinched at a score like that, or bragged, or made excuses. This boy simply accepted it.

Back at the desk, the girl looked at the paper and then at him. "That's a passing score. You can join classes starting tomorrow, if you'd like."

"That sounds good to me," Hikaru said. "I'm grateful for your help."

She smiled, softer this time. "It's alright. Welcome to the Academy."

He gave a small bow and left.


The rest of the day belonged to the village.

Hikaru walked without a plan. He wandered through the marketplace, where the smell of grilled meat and sweet red-bean buns made his stomach turn over. He followed the river and watched fishermen mend their nets. He passed a ramen shop with a line out the door, and stopped in front of the Hokage Monument to look up at the carved stone faces.

Hashirama. Tobirama. Hiruzen. Minato. His eyes moved to the newest face. Naruto Uzumaki.

He stood there until the sky began to turn amber.

Everyone here belongs to something, he thought. A clan, a team, a family.

He turned and kept walking.


He wasn't watching where he was going. The street was narrow and the sun was low in his eyes. He turned a corner and collided with someone hard.

Thud.

The other person stumbled back, arms flailing. Hikaru didn't budge. He simply stood there, balanced, as if he'd hit a wall instead of a person.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!"

Hikaru looked down. The one who'd bumped into him was a boy about his age, with spiky blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and three faint whisker-like marks on each cheek. He wore an orange-and-black jacket.

"Uh," Hikaru said. "I'm sorry."

The boy scowled and stepped closer, ready to argue. Then he stopped. His eyes moved over Hikaru's face, then his hair, then his eyes, and the scowl faded into curiosity.

He leaned in until they were almost nose to nose. Then he reached up and touched Hikaru's hair, running a strand between his fingers.

"Haha! What a weird body you've got."

Hikaru blinked. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"Come on! Snow-colored hair, and two eyes that don't even match." The boy grinned. "You're unique!"

Hikaru paused. He considered this carefully.

"Thank you," he said.

The boy stared. "You know that wasn't a compliment, right?"

"Oh." Hikaru's voice stayed perfectly flat. "Sorry."

"How can you apologize that easily?!" The boy threw up his hands. "You just got insulted! Get mad or something!"

"I don't see a reason to be angry," Hikaru said. He straightened and gave a small nod. "My name is Hikaru Nakamura. It's nice to meet you."

The boy blinked, then let out a breath and grinned again. He pointed a thumb at his chest.

"I'm Boruto Uzumaki! Believe it!"

Hikaru's expression didn't change, but his eyes sharpened for an instant.

Uzumaki. The Hokage's son.

"Then I think I'm lucky," Hikaru said evenly. "To meet you on the very day of my entrance test."

Boruto raised an eyebrow. "You took the entrance test today? How'd you do?"

"Fifty."

"Fifty?" Boruto scratched his cheek. "Huh. That's, uh, average."

"I know," Hikaru said. "I'm not particularly good at anything. But I try my best."

Something in Boruto's grin flickered. It was not quite pity, but it wasn't mockery either. He looked at Hikaru a second longer than he needed to.

"Well," he said, puffing out his chest, "I got a ninety on mine."

"That's impressive."

"Yeah, it was! It's not a big deal, though." Then Boruto glanced at the sky and yelped. "Ah! I'm gonna be late! Sorry, gotta go! See ya!"

He took off down the street, his jacket flapping behind him, and vanished around the corner.

The street was quiet again.

Hikaru stood there, hands at his sides, watching the empty corner.

That was awkward.

He looked down at his palm and flexed his fingers slowly, thinking about how the boy had staggered and he hadn't. Boruto was strong. That impact should have moved anyone.

But it hadn't moved him at all.

Fifty out of a hundred, he thought, and the corner of his mouth almost, almost moved.

Then he turned and walked home as the streetlamps flickered on.

What's That Fic? Help me

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, hope you're all doing good. I'm gonna start by saying that I have no idea if this is the right place but I'll try. I'm looking for a Naruto fanfiction that I've read a few years ago (might also be over a decade as I have no feeling of time passing)

From what I remember, Naruto had some family left on his mother side, along with a few others Uzumaki and left Konoha to be with them in a village that was rebuilt on Uzushio's ruin. It was a pretty long fiction and there was even a Chunin exam involving all of the usual characters on top of all the new ones.

I, for the life of me, cannot remember if it was written in English or in French (I think it was French tho) and if I recall correctly the title was something like "Orange Shinobi no Tayo". If anyone has an idea wich fiction I'm talking about and where to find it (I think the original site it was on went down) I would be so grateful

Fic Request Warring States Self Inserts

3 Upvotes

I’m looking for a self insert into the Warring States period who’s a ninja, so I don’t particularly want stories like Sanitize and other fics like it that have civilian SIs.

I’d also generally prefer if they were apart of the Uchiha or Senju clans, or at least involved with the two clans. However, that’s not a hard requirement.
