This was absolutely incredible. I hope that one day you decide to update again. I am so hooked on the potential for some of the story lines. I loved every interaction with the characters. Everything is so well written. Thank you. Hope all is well. Can't wait to read more one day.

She really gives herself way too much credit for the wave mission up til Zabuza she had no way of changing anything which mean the thugs and different demon brother encounter is an au and not a butterfly effect which should have been obvious because her guardian is way too close to shikaku to not appear in the canon story. Then after that kikashi is at fault for arrogantly continuing the mission then its naruto's fault for getting Kakashi more injured and exhausted then he would have been. And then Naruto again for being so week that his clones got ganked by civilians.

Other then Kabuto's team the rookies and team Gai were all that made it to the finals. Neji about to be the only Jonah's nin in the arena lol

he waited 4 hours with these suspicions. How irresponsible.

Violet eyes and red hair?

That screams Uzumaki.

Bruh. Sasuke, she might as well have saved your live. Apologizing is no way to repay that debt

What’s up with Shikamaru? If it has anything to do with either Orochimaru (he includes Kabuto) or Danzo I’m gonna rip their dicks off and then stomp on them so they can’t be reattached.

Okay, so, I want to see Orochimaru again—HEAR ME OUT IM NOT DONE YET— but only under the pretense that I actually know what is going on in that little urchin brain of his. I also want to see Danzo waterboarded and burned, if that’s alright

…playing The Only One They Fear is You for this chapter was a good idea.

Okay. So, she may not be an Uzumaki, but if not she must have some other bloodline. I’m happy with that, as long as it’s interesting enough

Btw, this is an amazing story and i love every bit of it. Huzzah.

Nope. I refuse. If i dont wanna be around you and you keep bugging, even if i did say id do something, i reserve EVERY right to be a bitch. I let you down. Obviously, i dont care. Get over it. Im not worth it. Youre not worth it. Nobody is.

Binged the whole story!

Ya know what helps with ANBU being overworked? Not having their dudes being poached, subverted, or dealing with the aftermath of an invasion. Killing Danzo early is the gift that keeps on giving. He isn’t to blame for everything but he is to blame for enough that making him a priority is worth some awkward questions from your close Nara acquaintances.

Unrelated: I had some massive deja vu last chapter.

Anyhow, sort of a fun ride. I like that you played the MCs issues and memory a little more straight than the typical Wiki Maestro SI. The characterizations all felt good and the interactions felt natural. I would have liked to see where you let the butterflies end up because even though she wasn’t very proactive you did write some interesting changes and they would have gotten more so with time. The writing overall was good (I stuck around). I hope life is treating you well and you’re able to find healthy and satisfying ways to unwind.

Really would have been a great time to put some cards on the table with Shikaku or Maen. Neither of them would instantly have sent her to a T&I dungeon. Letting them know about hidden sound and Danzo would be quick and easy ways to improve the situation. If she really wanted to flex giving information on the Akatsuki also could be interesting.
