Gosh. I mean like, this is flabbergasting awesome. Why are some of us sooooo mean? (And swears that much too) It's a nice story, free, well-written, and in English. Period. English is not my first language too, so I understand the pain of grammar.
Story is very good; this is not my first time reading it, in fact, I think I've read this 4 times now. Just awesome!

first off, it is an amazing story. Every character has an array of emotions and not monotone.
secondly: uzu is cannon as it supported konoha's creation and when destroyed (some time between 2-3 great ninja wars) and konoha couldn't help. konoha put the uzumaki symbol on each chunin flack jacket

The killing off off mito feels lazy

Like there are so many styles and fashions for weddings and formal events, why put her in something tight? Why not be creative enough to give her something sexy and fight ready in the first place?

Omg Izuna what? lol

Lovely story! Made me cry for hours with those last chapters. Thank you for a wonderful adventure!

This is an oldie but goodie fic. I always come back to it but I always wonder why Mito had to die.
It really made no sense to me. It’s my only complaint apart from the lack of a long epilogue but that’s more of a preference than a critic.

That was so peak, i think it may just be my favorite naruto fic, period

You could at least try to proofread the shit you write

Horrible grammar and spelling after first few chapters. I have seen authors improve but to regress is the first for me, I assume someone beta'd the beggining. The Uzushio arc is mindbogglingly stupid, we know Black Zetsu is trying to fuck over Uchihas in order to enact his plan to free Kaguya, why the fuck is Naruto leaving the centre of conflict in order to roam the world in search of Zetsu, he cannot be tracked down, best you can do is prepare a trap for him in places you know he must eventually show up *cough* Uchiha Clan *cough* Konoha *cough* cough*. The height of stupidity is Naruto chilling in Uzushio for years after the whole 'I cannot stay, I must travel and find him' spiel.
Big surprise the story had me hooked while it was basically just cannon Hashriama/Madara's past. I'm just going to skip the bullshit and continue once Naruto goes back to the Fire Nation.

This was one of the best stories I have read. I can't describe the amount of happiness I am experiencing for seeing this story exists.

Loved this story from start to finish. Thank you for writing it!

this is for new readers, the MC is an OC with kurama inside, nothing more than that, utterly inconsistent in fights and skills and an extreme buddha that never fight seriously even if other people can die because of that.
The rest of the character are written very well and the plot is good too which i guess its why it has so many favourites.

I have read hundreds of naruto fanfics and it is still in my top 2
