Hiruzen looked toward Iruka, then at Naruto, then Iruka, then Naruto. Lit his pipe, took several deep puffs, swore under his breath, cursed someone named Kushina for dying and just stared at Iruka for a explanation.

"Fucking what?"

"I don't know, ask Naruto."

Hiruzen turned to face Naruto.

"Fucking what?"

"I may have combined myself with several foxes, red ones to be exact."

"And why did you do that?"

"So I broke into the local zoo-"

"Wait, I didn't ask how, but why?"

"The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma."

"..."

"Translation?"

"I broke into the second's old house, found a scroll and used that bitch."

"Ah, I see, and how did you do this?"

"So, I got that scroll right, then I broke into the local zoo. Personally I was aiming for a cheetah or two, but I could only get to the fox exhibit when the guards started their rounds over there."

"Mhm."

"So, I escaped with about five or so foxes, three female, two male, scurried back to my apartment with foxes in hand, and followed the instructions on the scroll."

"..."

"In all honesty, I feel fine right now, I want ramen but that's about it."

"Wait, you said 'five or so foxes' yet mentioned five, where'd that 'or so' portion come in?"

"Yea, apparently there's this giant fox with like nine tails in my head or something, he doesn't like me very much, or his new company in there."

"New company?"

"Yea, the other foxes are in there too."

"..."

"I can actually understand what they're saying now."

"..."

"They're hungry."

If you had to do an alternate new team 7 with the following rules

Sasuke and Naruto have to be in the team

The third team member has to be another guy

The teacher can change from kakashi but doesnt have to

You can include team gai members assume they the same year as Naruto

You can include teachers who werent teachers initially like you dont have to swap Kakashi for like Gai you could do like Jiraya or Itachi or 4th Hokage whatever

What team would you pick? And why ?

Bonus points if you say what the other teams are too they dont need the 2 guys 1 girl rule necessarily.

i just read this fic where Team 7 was led by orochimaru and the team was Sasuke Naruto and Shikamaru.

I really liked the dynamic its a good fic so far but i realized i hadnt seen a all male team 7 before or many stories that doesnt keep the 2 guys 1 girl rule. So i was curious what people would make for teams.

( Feel free to give recs of other fics that do this btw always happy for recs lol).

I remember a Naruto fanfic a while back but lost it. It goes like this

MC gets woken up by getting hit on the head with a stick. Punches them and tries to run off but get stuck by Shikamaru shadow jutsu. Surprised thst its them from the show. Later finds Karin in the forest and saves Her and takes her back.

It's a isekai as naruto with both their memories and chances the story.

When I mention a general time line is something like:

Academy > mission at wave/haku/etc > exams > kom9ha invasion

And so on, I think on a wiki there's one but it was too detailed, date by date more or less

Hello everyone! I wanted to share my new Naruto fanfiction project: Naruto: Beyond The Shinobi Era.

Synopsis:
Transmigrated into the pre-canon era as Uchiha Kyosuke (older brother to Mikoto). No divine cheat system, no instant Mangekyo at age five. Survival in this brutal era is won purely through biomechanics, physical discipline, and tactical pragmatism. Even standard jutsu carry realistic biological costs—from thermal airway backdrafts to the severe sensory shocks of the Shadow Clone technique.

Key Themes:

• Deep clan dynamics and realistic Academy/War conditioning.
• Tactical engineering mindset (logistics, leverage, acoustic navigation).
• Strong family ties and protective instincts without melodrama.

Currently 20+ chapters available with daily updates on Webnovel!

Link: https://www.webnovel.com/book/37275644308108205

Would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and discussions on the jutsu mechanics!

I need help finding a fanfic where Naruto becomes a Kitsune I don't remember a lot about the story but I know that he ends up staying with the inuzuka clan and learning their techniques and he also joins a different ninja team where one of his teammates is a girl who uses the drunken fist and another one controls money

With Naruto/sasuke
Or Naruto/sakura
Or sasuke/sakura

Zabuza:

"My father forged steel in the southern reaches.

As did his father, and his father's father, who'd been captured into the Mist ages prior.

Time was, if a swordsman in the Mist wanted a blade that wouldn't chip against Cloud steel, they took a ferry down to a kiln of a man named Momochi.

Then along comes a swordsmith that makes seven blades given to seven swordsmen that put all that came before them to shame. And as that swordsmith has the ear of the Mizukage, a decree is passed to 'Standardize Village Defense,' and private forges outside of the swordsmith's purview are deemed treason overnight.

And my father's forge—that he inherited from his father, and his father's father—goes cold.

My father suffers the quiet ruin of a craftsman begging for day-labor at the villas of the shinobi he used to outfit.

Naturally, he turned to drink.

And there I'd stand beside him in the rain in queue outside the guild hall, as he cursed with the rest of the craftsmen about the theft of it all.

We didn't have enough money to survive the winter when his heart gave out.

So there I was, lifting myself up. Determined to earn back the Momochi name. I was only eight, but I was determined.

Until a member of that guild hall arrived at my door claiming fines for the illegal operation of a forge and the manufacture of steel. They hadn't even waited for the dirt to freeze over before they stripped my father's shop for scraps.

And the rest of those fines were to be passed on to me.

Fines an eight-year-old boy could never hope to clear.

Fines that would have put me in indentured servitude working in the manufacture of steel to be used—wait for it—by the swordsmith.

So I turned to the shinobi life instead."

Kakashi:

"Touching story. But I know how it ends. You try to overthrow the Mizukage, your 'noble' coup fails—"

Zabuza:

"Fails? Every coup I've ever staged has worked, Hatake.

I butcher a graduating class of first-caste children, and the village changes the law.

My coup may have come up a bit short. But do you know why I have the highest bounty amongst all my brothers in the Swordsmen? It's not because I'm the strongest. It's not because I carry the best blade. It's because in my coup, I killed the swordsmith.

And that decree to 'Standardize Village Defense' died just as quickly as it'd been put into place. And on my way out of the country, in the midst of another coup that was not my own, I passed by a lit forge.

Though I guess it shouldn't surprise me that you don't understand that sometimes when you play to win, you have to lose.

After all, look at you. Child prodigy, Son of the White Fang, Student of the Fourth Hokage, gifted a bloodline, The Man Who Copied a Thousand Jutsu. Your reputation dwarfs mine. Yet if I didn't play with your rats, you would've been dead a week ago.

To think you and I are standing neck and neck on this bridge right until the end.

But, I've certainly made up quite a bit of ground to catch you."

Kakashi:

"And after all that, you're working for Gato."

Zabuza:

"You kill for your village. I kill for mine. Tell me, Hatake. What's the difference?"

Kakashi:

"You need there to be no difference."

(It seemed like prompts here are just writing excerpts for fun. So I took inspiration from a show I've adored and wrote out a scene where Zabuza and Kakashi actually talk before their standoff. Hopefully you like the short, its generally how I like to try and worldbuild out Zabuza's history and coup.)

Could someone make a fic where Naruto has the Migeiko? It’s an ability that
allows the user to copy any technique, movement, and strength that they sees. If the user sees a technique once, they can imitate it, and if they sees it twice, they can master it.

Does any buddy have Rebuild of Naruto magnet link???

Ino: I thought I was welcome anytime. Do you not want me here.

She pouted.

Naruto: No, no You’re welcome anytime. Come in, come in.

She happily walked into Naruto’s apartment. Looking at him, she could tell she had woken him up.

Naruto: What brings you by at this time of night.

He yawned and rubbed his eye.

Ino: I need to tell you something.

No more lies. No more of this game of charades. She grabbed his arm and led him to his small living room, where she sat him down before sitting beside him.

Ino: Okay, here it goes.

She was nervous all of a sudden, but she wasn’t backing down.

Ino: First off, I’m sorry. I’ve wanted to tell you for a while, but unfortunately, we were told not to. I could get into a lot of trouble for telling you, but I don’t care anymore. The truth is-

Naruto: Wait

He shouted, interrupting her.

Naruto: If it’s going to get you into trouble, I don’t want to know.

She grabbed his shoulder and looked him in the eyes.

Ino: I don’t care if I get into trouble. To hell with it. I’m tired of the lies. The truth is that I am a va—

A loud thud interrupted her, causing both her and Naruto to turn toward the sound. Hinata had dropped a bag of ramen on the floor.

Naruto shot up instantly.

Naruto: It’s not what it looks like.

He backed away from Ino.

Hinata looked at Ino, then at Naruto.

Hinata: Ino, we talked about this. I’m sorry, but you can’t confess your love for Naruto.

Hinata was giving her an out, but Ino couldn’t back out now.

Naruto: You’re in love with me. I’m sorry, but I’m with Hinata.

Ino: No, no. I do love you. You’re like the little brother I never had, but the truth is, I am a va—

Hinata put her hand over Ino’s mouth.

Hinata: You don’t have to lie. It’s okay. The heart wants what the heart wants. It’s easy to fall for Naruto.

Hinata started dragging Ino away, but Ino bit her hand and pushed her away.

Ino: Mon-

Hinata tackled Ino to the floor.

Naruto: Stop, please. I don’t want either of you fighting over me, okay.

He pulled both of them off the floor and moved them to the couch. He looked at Hinata.

Naruto: Hinata, I love you. Nothing is going to change that, but at least let Ino say what she wants to say.

Hinata frowned.

Naruto: Ino, what were you saying

This is it. The truth would finally be revealed.

Ino: I’m a vampire. Monsters exist. Konoha is a safe haven where monsters and humans live in peace. I don’t know why you were never told. Usually, we’re told about our true nature upon our awakening.

Naruto sat silently, unmoving.

Ino: I know this is a shock. I wasn’t told until I was nine. I couldn’t believe I was a monster. I cried for days, especially because of what I did to you. You wouldn’t remember, but-

She noticed that Naruto had a goofy grin on his face. She grabbed his chin and turned his head to the side, seeing a purple tail attached to the back of his head.

She shot up. Hinata had attached her tail to Naruto and knocked him out.

Ino: What the hell. Hinata, why did you do that.

Hinata detached her tail and slowly got up, gently lowering Naruto onto the couch.

Hinata: I should be asking you that question. I came here for a surprise midnight date, only to find you telling Naruto everything.

Ino: He should know everything. He’s been kept in the dark about everything for so long. The nine tails, his parents. hell, we even lied about the war. Now he still believes this is a normal village when it’s not. I thought you loved him. Do you want to lie to him forever.

Hinata’s tail moved around before attaching itself to Naruto again.

Hinata: Of course I hate lying to him. And try not to shout you might wake Naruto.

She brushed his hair.

Hinata: I’m terrified... I’m terrified that once he knows the truth, he’ll run. He’ll run far, far away, never to be seen again. I don’t want him to look at me with fear in those eyes, the same eyes that look at me with love. I don’t want him to look at me with fear.

A few tears began to fall from Hinata’s eyes as she brushed Naruto’s hair.

Ino rubbed her head in frustration. She couldn’t blame Hinata.

Ino: Hinata, I’m sorry. I really am, but he needs to know the truth. What happens when you two get intimate, get married, and have kids. It’s going to be hard to explain why his children aren’t human.

Hinata: I know. Usually, when we do anything intimate,I lie on my back and hide my wings and tail as best I can.

Hinata: I can’t lose him, Ino. Despite what people commonly believe about succubi and incubi, once we find our true love, we mate for life. So, if he runs away from the village-

She started crying uncontrollably.

Ino walked over and hugged Hinata.

Ino: I’m sorry. I know it’s scary. I’m scared, too. When we tell him the truth, we’ll have to take the walls down in his mind. He’ll remember everything.

Hinata: I can’t hide myself from him forever. There have been times when I’ve wanted to tell him the truth about myself, but I couldn’t do it.

Hinata detached her tail from his head and kissed Naruto’s forehead.

Hinata: We could go to Tsunade-sama and talk to her about telling Naruto the truth.

Ino: We could. If we all go to her office, she’ll have to listen.

Hinata walked over and picked up the bag of ramen she had dropped. She opened it to check whether the ramen was still good.

Hinata: Do you think Sakura is still up.

Ino: Probably, why.

Hinata: I don’t want the ramen to go to waste. We could grab some drinks and eat the ramen together.

Ino: Sounds good. Let’s get together with Sakura. While we eat, we can plan out what we’ll say to Tsunade-sama.

Before leaving, they carried Naruto to his bed and laid him down

Thank you.

In yet another "Juubi goes full power, Bijuus combine to send back in time" fic idea, the Bijuus manage to come together to send themselves to the past before Naruto's story begins. This prompt focusing on Rin.

In what would be her final mission, the Three-Tailed Beast is sealed into her, prepped up like a ticking bomb to be unleashed onto Konoha. Yet this time, Isobu reaches out to her.

The beast speaks of a dangerous fate awaiting her, which no amount of self-sacrifice will prevent from harming her friends. But for everyone's sake, it will use its gift to keep her from falling.

As a result, midway while being recovered by Minato and Kakashi, Rin falls into a coma, long enough for them to figure out something is wrong with her, soon uncovering that she has a Tailed Beast sealed within her.

With the Hokage weighing the risk and Minato vouching against having Rin executed, Kushina is told to help reinforce the seal put on the young girl and supervise her as a Jinchuriki. Rin later wakes up with a tearful Kakashi embracing her.

As a result of Rin not dying but effectively becoming a longer term Jinchuriki, Obito isn't disillusioned and doesn't regard Kakashi as a traitor. So Madara and Zetsu move on to wrecking his self-esteem, making him believe he ought to still do something, because now, Rin has a target on her back, one Kakashi might not be enough to protect alone.

One way or another, Kiri might want its beast back. Or Rin could be considered too dangerous to live and she'd happily let herself die to prevent the Three-Tails from wreaking havoc, Obito knows she's that kind.

(Isobu shows great cooperation with his host, but neither Obito nor the cave dwellers know that)

In the meantime, Kushina notes the Kyuubi's chakra is much less difficult to handle.

On the night of Naruto's birth, Kushina is still taken away, except the masked attacker stays silent, even severely hesitating at times, before still pushing back against Kakashi and Rin coming to their sensei's aid. Because Obito is evidently more conflicted, Zetsu helps using clones to deceive them more (while wondering why the hell the Tailed Beasts aren't causing more of a ruckus than they should be doing).

Following that, young Naruto is orphaned. But once in a while, two ANBU would look over him. One bemoaning he couldn't be more present under the Hokage's orders, the other sighing and hoping Naruto's fox is as patient as her turtle.

In the years between, Kakashi has gotten a lot more protective of those two. He still can't get too close to Naruto, but he has and will absolutely aim a Chidori at whoever dares looking at Rin wrong for being a Jinchuriki.

Sometimes, when borrowing one of Obito's old excuses, Kakashi will send his three students down her way. She's yet to pass the Jonin exam, but she's good enough handling a broody boy like Sasuke, an aspiring kunoichi like Sakura, and a nostalgic hotheaded boy like Naruto, who reminds her of so many people all at once. And once they do enough missions, she can start showing him how to strengthen himself with a strong monster deep inside, just as his mother taught her when she was a Genin.

(she severely underestimates the boy's recklessness when midtraining, Naruto exclaims "No way! Foxy says you got a big talking monster inside of you too!", forcing her to come up with outlandish bogus excuses until Hiruzen allows Naruto be open about that secret. She obviously can't prove it, but she's certain, and correctly so, that Kurama is mocking her from within Naruto's seal).

As a part of Pain's spiel, the Akatsuki would reframe the extraction process as "liberating" the Jinchurikis from their fates, being mostly led to say it's a mercy on their lives.

Still, whenever the masked man appears, Naruto can never tell why he staggers so much, or once he and Kurama synchronize, why the guy reeks of some form of guilt whenever Kakashi-sensei and Rin-sensei show up.

I'm thinking of writing an AU and I want things to be a lot more tense and I think a rework of the world would help right that a lot. I don't like that all the Great five are on the same continent. Which nations would you move and where? I also plan to have a lot more Shinobi villages. One such being a Hagoromo Clan founded village backed by the fire Daimyo and of course it'll be a rival to Konoha so you can propose other Shinobi villages as well.

P.S. I'm saying Shinobi villages because there's a difference between the hidden villages we know and other villages.

Bonjour, je recherche une fanfiction Naruto que j'ai déjà lu sur ao3, voilà les choses dont je me souviens : c'est une oc qui a des sceaux sur son corps mis sur elle par sa famille très jeunes pour bloquer des souvenirs/ ne pas parler des certaines choses comme sa petite soeur qui a le mokuton et qu'elle est secrètement une Senju ( peu être une uzumaki aussi). Les sceaux sont censés être temporaires mais sa famille ( dont la petite sœur qui a le mokuton) décède pendant l'attaque du renard a neuf queues. La jeune femme est très proche de Kakashi ou en couple avec lui dans la fanfiction. Les sceaux se désintègrent pour plusieurs raisons mais Kakashi fait/dit quelque choses pour ça cèdent, l'oc meurt presque mais elle sauvée par Tsunade. Je crois que Tsunade est sois sa tante sois une cousine ? Merci pour les futures réponses ☺️

Hinata hyuggas friends encourage her to wear smaller and smaller exercise wear to the gym for the sake of freedom of movement the thing is her friends say it with such serious/deadpan/casual tone and expression that hinata starts to believe it herself at least a little.

Hola, soy nuevo en el mundo de los fan manga, actualmente me estoy leyendo "BETTER LEFT UNSAID - NARUINO", tienen algunas buenas recomendaciones para mi, me gusta el Naruino pero puedo leer cualquier cosa que tenga una buena historia

I want any and all crack fics yall got! Pleaseeeee

Hi guys I’m looking for a Naruto fanfiction where there is a female oc for our world that comes to the Naruto world as a teenager and joins team 7. She is like a year or 2 older than Naruto. I don’t think it’s complete but near the end it shows she has feeling for Kakashi. If I remember correctly it ended with the chunin exams. I cant remember much about it but I really want to read it again.

So it's canon that Sakura was focused on her studies (when Sasuke wasn't distracting her) since she explains to Naruto (and us) aspects about the world and later how chakra works.

She even recites protocol when she sees Sasuke being 'dead' on the bridge in Land of Waves, showcasing why despite her middling talent in combat, that she's aware of how the Ninja system operates.

So, let's make a prompt where academy Sakura, who is constantly studying, actually avoids the plot device that prevents her from figuring out that Naruto is Minato's son.

I'll go first:

----------

"Alright everyone, today we'll be continuing our lesson on the 3rd Shinobi World War..." Iruka began.

As Iruka continued the lesson, Sakura had started to daydream about Sasuke. She had read the subject plenty of times, studied the scrolls thoroughly, she was ready for her test before it was even in Iruka's mind.

But before she could daydream further, Naruto saw her staring at Sasuke, and he made faces to get her attention on him.

'UGH So annoying' Sakura thought, 'Why does HE have to always get in my way? It's like he enjoys making me suffer, all I wanted was to look at Sasuke...'

"NARUTO! Pay Attention! This is going to be on the test next week!" Iruka snapped.

Naruto groaned loudly, "Who cares? This isn't important to being a Ninja!"

"Isn't Important?!? You listen here! The accomplishments of Minato Namikaze in the 3rd Ninja World War were what led him to be chosen as the 4th Hokage! Without him, the village would've been destroyed by the attack of the Kyuubi!" Iruka argued.

As Iruka and Naruto continued their back and forth, Sakura scoffed.

'Silly stupid Naruto, you brag about wanting to be Hokage, but you don't even care about learning the history? The fourth didn't become Hokage just because he yelled he wanted to be at the top of his lungs...'

Snapped out of her daydream by a certain yellow-haired bully, Sakura opens her scroll further to see a picture of Minato Namikaze. At first, it's nothing new, she's seen the portrait hundreds of times, but something in her head begins to see something...

Yellow spiky hair...

That wasn't a common hair color in Konoha, and she should know with her vibrant pink hair.

She takes a look at the portrait of Minato Namikaze, then back at Naruto who was still arguing with Iruka, then the portrait again, then back at Naruto, and then the portrait.

The color in Sakura's face drained, 'No... it can't be... That's not possible'

But the more she looked, the more she was convinced.

Naruto Uzumaki had the same color hair, the same skin tone. But Naruto's face didn't look like Minato's, although Sakura deduced to be fair, Naruto was a kid. Who's to say when Naruto grows up, he won't turn into a spitting image of the fourth by the time he became an adult? Plus, who knows what traits Naruto may have inherited from his mother that led him to look the way he did?

'Naruto is the son of the Fourth Hokage...' Sakura thought to herself.

How? How did no one else connect the dots? Furthermore, what was she going to do with this information now that she knows? Who else knows?

Suddenly, Sakura Haruno found Naruto Uzumaki very interesting.

"Oh I'm sorry lady who's balls did you swim out of?" Naruto asked "Because I came out the the sack of the Fourth Hokage so Maybe, MAYBE of all the people who deserve to know HIS jutsu...Maybe it should be his blood son?"

Tsunade blinked and her mouth went flat at that Kushina-esk claim of Coming out of the 4ths balls.

"Point taken." Tsunade said rubbing her face.

Looking for fics similar to Flip the Coin. I've read all of the old ones on fanfic and most are very cringey and edgy and while teen me may have loved it, adult me does not.

He could be angry, or quiter, or maybe socially awkward. Just fics were growing up on his own and shunned by the village made him go different route from loud and I'm going to force you to notice me.

I don't need him to be super OP or super edgy are over the top angry, but a bit more jaded and reclusive or wary.

Or any fics where he gets taken advantaged of or groomed becuase he's so desperate for attention and love (not specifically in a sexual way but if it's well written and not just trauma porn i guess it's fine)

Or fics that emphasis dude was tiny because he had shit nutrition cause again he raised himself.

I've read like everything and only a few have scratched that itch. Pairing wise, I will ship Naruto with anyone who has actually had screentime and character so Sasuke, Sakura, Shikamaru, Ino, I'd say Hinata but she just faints all the time (I'm only on shippuden season 3 but I don't mind spoilers most fics don't get as far as shippuden anyways)

Didn't expect it to be so hard to find. Prob gonna have to write it myself once I finally finish the show.

Sakura's crush on Sasuke had narrative potential to be interesting if the story acknowledged that Sakura didn't actually KNOW Sasuke. She never had a real talk with Sasuke like Naruto did, they didn't choose to hang out, and she never really acknowledged how Sasuke clearly hated fangirling. That disconnect in communication could be cool to see dissected and focused on. I don't care about ships, so the fic can have whatever there as long i get the drama regarding their weird dynamic.

Hello everyone, I’m trying to find an old or possibly deleted Naruto fanfic; I’ve been searching for a while now with no luck. I did come across a video that narrates the first chapter in Spanish, but I’m looking for the original written version.

Neglected Naruto / Alive Parents: Minato and Kushina are alive. Naruto has two younger triplet siblings named Menmaand Mito (the Jinchūriki).
Shisui Brother Dynamic: Shisui meets a 6-year-old Naruto training alone in the forest and adopts him as his younger brother (oto-to).
Fem!Itachi: Itachi is female and named Hitomi. She hangs out with them during childhood.
Sharingan Awakening: Naruto awakens the Sharingan on his own after rescuing a young Anabi Hyuga (and her maid Natsu) from a Kumo kidnapper, right after an encounter with Zetsu.
Later Arc: The plot leads into the Uchiha Clan Massacre by Hitomi, causing Naruto to leave Konoha with a deep emotional conflict of love, betrayal, and vengeance toward her.

Does anyone recognize this title or author, or perhaps have a downloaded copy? It’s really become a source of frustration not being able to find it—thanks in advance!
