Shinobi Quest #47

This quest takes place within the lands of the Five Great Shinobi Nations (aka Narutoverse) starting roughly around the beginning of the original series. The world of this quest remains similar to the original, with slight but notable differences in certain areas, based upon the passage of time from a single slightly altered event.

(It’s a goddamn Naruto Quest, you bastards. Have fun, participate, and write in when you feel inclined. Most of the outcomes of this quest will be determined by you, the players. Critiques and questions are always welcome, as my knowledge of the weeby shit is not all encompassing.)

Last thread, Tsuki Norihime and her party defended the Norihime family manor to the best of their ability, utilizing the traps and mechanisms within to deter the Akatsuki, dealing as much damage as possible while minimizing their own losses. With the Takigakure Genin Kegon sacrificing himself to hold the Akatsuki off initially, the inevitable conflict followed the party all the way to the roof of the Norihime household. Once there, however, Yoru revealed he had another surprise up his sleeve….

I'm surprised there hasn't been more fighting or any assassination attempts at all considering the level of vitriol and anger throughout the country.

Glad people aren't getting hurt, but it's just a little surprising.

This massive mechanical weapon- the Automated Strategic Artillery.

The bipedal machine is easily three or four times your height, and the roof sighs under it’s height.

You smile, despite everything going on around you-

He named it after Mother.

Deidara seems aggravated by this development, though Sasori is unfazed, per the norm.

“Industrial art is hideous!” The blonde boy howls. “Art is beautiful, but simple- dynamic in its complexities, but never staying around to be fully appreciated by the unwashed masses! Yoru Norihime! Art- Art is an explosion! I’ll prove that to you here and now!”

Yoru, in response, fires up the guns on the ASA. There is a loud whining as the barrels begin to spin- and after a few moments, senbon are raining on the two Akatsuki members, who dodge to the sides to avoid the onslaught.

All the while, even more puppets begin to rise along the outside perimeter of the roof- it seems escape is… unlikely.

My dear daughter, I suggest you and your friends come up with a plan of attack- I’m not sure if this unfinished weapon will hold them off for long!” Yoru’s voice calls from inside the mechanical juggernaut.

He’s right- you need to make a stand.

Better kill deidara in one shot before he has a chance to set off C0 or some crazy shit and kills us all.
Sasori is bad, but in the end it's just puppets and poison.

I don't think we need to stop it, since there is a whole crowd of people, i don't think he can handle all of us at once with nobody (probably us) getting to his body.

That said, he has to actually bring the third out to hard counter stellar, which he probably knows little to nothing about, and even if he did, doesn't necessarily know that magnetism hard counters it, or even if he knew that too, would be able to switch up his (not actually his) techniques to counter it on the fly.
If we can wreck his shit before he has a chance to do any of that, we'll be in good shape.

What i wouldn't give for shino or some other aburame to be here right now, though.

Time to buddy up to Fuu.

Who are you planning on targeting? The other will decide what to do based on this.

1. Deidara.

2. Sasori.

3. Just play keep away with Fuu, trying to keep her safe.

“Fuu, with me! Let’s take out this prattling art student!” You call out.

Turning to you, she smiles and nods.

The puppets try to close in- but the constant firing of the ASA is keeping them at bay, shredding any who get too close.

As you and Fuu run at Deidara, your four other companions run at Sasori, intent on taking him down.

The blonde Shinobi gives you a wide-eyed smile.

“Oh, now you want to fight, little girls? I’ll prove my art is superior!” He growls.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Kd4mOSrTh8

Jumping backwards, he expels several clay bats- which you are easily able to disable using Lightning Strike. Taking advantage of this, Fuu sprays another blast of the black, biting flies- but another short range explosion burns them away.

When the smoke clears, there are several of Deidara grinning at you- clones?

He’ll need to do better than that. As they advance upon you, both Fuu and yourself several kunai while dodging the clones taijutsu, in an attempt find the real Deidara- but as they are struck, they begin to swell- bombs!

Fuu takes to the skies while you use the shunshin to escape the sudden blasts. Were they just a distraction….?

Weapons at the ready, you prepare for an attack- but one never comes. Instead, you hear Fuu cry out- barely audible over the firing of the ASA.

Eyes shooting upward, you see Deidara has taken to the sky, riding what looks to be a large white bird. It doesn’t seem quite as fast as Fuu, though, and the Jiinchuriki is able to dodge his attacks whilst mid-air. Thinking quickly, you prepare another Lightning Strike- if you hit, you should be able to neutralize his bird, as long as it’s made of the same material.

You fire off the attack- but instead of dodging, Deidara fires off several large globs of clay to take the brunt of the attack, then follow up by releasing another swarm of clay birds. The birds, however, don’t attack Fuu or even yourself- they fly straight towards the ASA.

Again trying for a Lightning Strike, you’re just a little too late- only clipping a few of the birds before the swarm crashes into the machine.

You cry out as explosions rattle the ASA- the machine is just heavy enough to not topple over.

The joint on the machine’s right leg sparks, and seems to not be entirely functioning- and one of the guns seems to have taken a few too many hits, and has been rendered inoperable.

Your internal sigh of relief, however, is halted by the sickening sound of crunching bone and a grunt of pain. Looking behind you, the other Takigakure genin, Yoro, has been impaled by Sasori’s bladed tail. The other three look on in horror- Fuu hasn’t seemed to notice it, yet.

This is going badly. Deidara is in the sky, and is thus harder to hit, while the team taking on Sasori seems to be making no headway- and may have just taken a casualty.

You….

Kinda favoring this, purely on the grounds that while the other group needs help, leaving Fuu high and dry out of nowhere, especially when she may be caught off guard by her killed comrade...that's worse.

Ugh. If someone has a good plan of attack for dealing with Sasori I'm game, but my gut says don't leave Fuu without support. At very least we can try to neuter his explosions.

No, you need to trust in the others to get it done- and focus on your target. They might need some assistance, however, so you create a single shadow clone to help- it’s really all you can spare.

You’ll need to find a good vantage point to attack Deidara- with him flying, it’s become really difficult to get a bead on him. It would be better to fire something that strikes over a wide area.

You run over to the ASA, and leap atop it, attempting to keep your balance while the remaining gun tries to keep the puppets at bay.

You consider your options- Lighting Strike would be best, but it’s too precise, and hard to aim at this distance, and the Phoenix Flowers won’t have enough of an effect….

Star Fall is your only attack can over a wide enough area to hit him, hopefully.

You take a deep breath, and begin to charge up the stellar attack, trying to keep an eye on Deidara. It’s difficult- Fuu is barely keeping ahead of the Akatsuki member, only just managing to avoid his attacks.

After a moment, it’s ready- though Deidara seems to have noticed your absence. Seeing you charging up…. Something, he scowls, and fires off several waves of clay birds, which be line to your location.

You hope this works…..!

Stellar Release: Star Fall!” You cry out, expelling the blast of energy.

You wait a few heartbeats, just before it would meet the first bird- then detonate the attack, causing a widespread blast of energy.

Deidara tries to glide out of the way, but his bird simply isn’t fast enough- many of the stellar projectiles punch right through his bird, causing it to plummet.

Thankfully, the birds were evaporated by the attack- but it seems the puppets are now closing in; the ASA’s single gun is only just able to hold them off.

The second group is making little headway- both Choji and Shikamaru are relying on conventional ninja tools- while Sai’s relying entirely on his ink beasts. It seems none of the boys are willing to engage Sasori in melee range- while your clone is using fire techniques to little effect.

You…

1. Go in for the kill on Deidara

2. Do as above, but with Afterglow.

3. Go help with Sasori, leaving Deidara to Fuu.

4. Do as above, but with Afterglow.

We still gotta handle Sasori so I think we need to conserve SOME chakra.

Granted, Deidara may be a lot less spiteful in death if he dies to something glorious like our Stellar release, but I wouldn't bet on it.

With Afterglow we'd have to essentially kill/KO Deidara, and then immediately move onto Sasori.

Hmm. Though, as long as we definitely kill Deidara, Fuu probably still has enough in the tank to keep fighting Sasori. So even if we're tapped out (again) the original group should get some back-up.

He’s on the back foot- you have to press your advantage!

You steady your breathing- and enter Afterglow.

You immediately feel the drain on your chakra- you won’t have very long.

Utilizing the shunshin, you dash towards where the bird landed- though several puppets are blocking your path. Drawing your katanas, you dance by the slower constructs, slicing through them in a fluid motion.

With your path clear, you see him- Deidara is trying to cannibalize his bird for some other large attack- but not on your watch!

As you speed towards him, he seems surprised- again, surprise seems to be your best tactic. He opens his palms, two large clay snakes springing forth to attack- but he’s just too slow.

Sliding underneath the attack, you decapitate both snakes, then spring into a run, bisecting the clay creatures as you do so.

Deidara’s eyes widen, and he expels the rest his clay forward- you simply cut through it.

He tries utilizing this moment to bear down on you with Taijutsu- and you have to admit, he isn’t bad. But he just isn’t fast enough to keep up with you- and he’s desperate.

You parry an overhead strike, then spin to the left and bring down your blades in a single motion. Your blades meet flesh- and cut through his right arm at the elbow.

He shrieks, grabbing the bloody stump of his arm, and falls over- he’s scooting away from you, trying to mend the wound with his clay.

You…

Once we got the full list confirmed we can also just write fag it ourselves.

I'd assume that AkaTsuki is a alt timeline where Tsuki is born BEFORE Orochimaru gets caught, forced to flee Orochimaru takes his greatest accomplishment, with the tactic aid of Yoru, who unfortunately knows exactly what would happen to Tsuki if it was known her existence is owed in part to a war criminal.

Hint, the answer involves killing her in case she turns out to be a sleeper agent. At its nicest.

Don't think that would work with puppet man. Unless there is some kind of SUPER long range way to control puppets he's discovered. Meanwhile bomber man probably would rather be able to see his art in person.

The real reason they wouldn't be using those corpse clones is that the clones only have a fraction of the originals power and akatsuki can't afford to pull it's punches when dealing with konoha and the yellow fucking flash

I hope Tsuki remembers to collect Deidara's bounty. Its gotta be YUUUUUUUUUGE.

And her kekkei genkai. Unique. One of a kind Did you see that laser she blasted? She would have won if not for the liberal ninja academia confusing her. We're handcuffing our child soldiers' potential. You think the Kazekage is worried about other countries' kid? He put a demon in his son and it is paying dividends for them. We need to fight monsters not coddle them.

Tsuki is a terrific kunoichi. Just terrific. Beautiful, intelligent, respected , and she understands business. Konoha needs more shinobi like Tsuki, especially with low energy lightweights like Minato flushing the leaf village down the toilet. He's a disaster of a hokage. A total disaster.

Minato invites enemies into our homes, Tsuki kills them. She just wiped one of them out! We need more ninja like Tsuki if we want to destroy Akatsuki and make Konoha great again.

A reasonable person might do that when facing two S-Class missing ninja who just want one person.

And people don't want to die.

Oh, and they clearly didn't JUST want Fuu because they're part of a huge attack on Konoha that isn't ONLY focusing on Fuu. For all Tsuki knows their next objective is "Go hunt down and murder all of the academy students" and every moment merely spent DELAYING them is vital for the future strength of Konoha.

We're a twelve year old girl who's a little overconfident.
Dad did most of the work be detonating the mansion.

We did it either way, i'm just saying it wasn't a good idea from the perspective of most people.
Would it have felt good to just turn her over? No, of course not.
But most people, ninjas included, still would have done it rather than face two S-Class.
>>
Okay, so Deidara is dead, and Fuu is safe. But how many other people are still alive? I think Yoru is probably still safe in his mech, but InoShikaCho and Sai are fighting the guy who killed and stuffed a kage and specializes in area of effect attacks, multiple opponents, and poison! I would expect at least one of them to be dead or dying by now, possibly more than one or even all of them.
Which means we might have to start considering which we prioritize saving if shit gets real bad. I don't think we'll be beating Sasori without serious backup, and I don't know if we'll have enough time to both help our friends retreat AND pry Yoru out of a battle-damaged mechwarrior.

You look down on the fleeing Deidara.

Art is supposed to be fleeting, right?

You swing downwards- your arms, however, are caught by a blast of clay.

All it takes is a burst of stellar energy, though- and the clay is rendered inert.

Deidara continues to crawl away- but his expression as has changed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShrahZAk4ag

Tears stream down his face, but he’s smiling.

“So you understand? I can’t help but laugh of the symbolism of it- the greatest artist of this generation, taken down by some corporate witch! I- I won’t allow it!”

He stands, ripping off the tattered remainder of his uniform. A strange seal is around his heart, sewn shut with a black thread. He shuts his eyes, clenches his teeth, and wrenches out the string- causing another mouth to open, with strange teeth and a large tongue.

He lodges a glob of clay into the mouth, just as you manage to free your arms from the clay.

“This! This is my final art! My C0! I will show you all just how wonderful my creations are!”

You rush towards him, blades extended- he doesn’t even try to resist as your blade catches him in the neck.

Deidara gurgles- but he’s still smiling.

In the faintest of whispers, you hear him say-

“Art.. is an explosion!”

Wrenching free your sword, you swing around a second time- separating his head full from his shoulders.

His body falls to it’s knees- and begins to swell grotesquely.

You’ve seen something like this before….!

As you turn to run, however, Afterglow dissipates, your chakra reserves simply too low to support it.

Still, you run- and see Fuu, flying towards you.
“Up!” You scream- “We need to get far away, he’s going to-”

Seeing the swelling body behind you, Fuu takes action. Flying over to you, she lifts you- struggling at first.

She sprouts a 3rd wing- then a fourth- eventually all the way to seven.

“Chomei- please…” you hear her whisper-

Before, suddenly, Fuu’s presence changes- exuding a power not unlike you saw in Nori, and felt in Gaara.

Her weakness and hesitation is gone- and she takes off, you barely holding on.

As you pass overhead, you see the other team, back near the ASA- surrounded by puppets, with Sasori approaching.

At the top of your lungs, you yell-

“Everyone, get down!”

Before Fuu clears the mansion entirely.

Not even a full minute later, there is a huge explosion- one the decimates the eastern half of the manor, and causes it to collapse upon itself.

Shikamaru, Choji, Sai, the ASA, and even Sasori fall into it’s crumbling depths….

>>727125

Deidara is 3 years younger and less experienced than in canon- if you noticed, he was only using half of his abilities here.

Also, it takes a while to charge up fully- and you "killed" him before It could charge a whole hell of a lot.

Even at only about 20% strength, it easy did a lot of damage to the surrounding area.

Well, on the plus side Sasori just got dropped into a shadow-rich environment with a Nara. That is not going to be fun for him.

And if he's extremely unlucky and Yoru was extremely prepared, the floor underneath them just had more weapons and traps for Yoru to spring.

She didn't kill him by herself- far from it. He was significantly weakened from the traps, and Tsuki basically rendered most of his skills worthless.

It's definitely an achievement- and when you report his death, you can embellish how it went down, if you want- but that might have other drawbacks you don't want.

As you fly with Fuu high over the rubble of the manor, you’re given a overhead view of Konoha- or what’s left of it.

Shukaku is… gone? As is the large frog…. Most of it’s battle site is in ruins, though- it’s impossible to tell what just happened.

There still seems to be some fighting going in the town below, though it seems mostly contained to a few areas. Did we win? Are they retreating? Or did they accomplish their goals?

Smoke from the explosion pours off the manor, along with dust ejected from its collapse- between the debris and the setting sun, it is quite difficult to make anything out in the manor below.
Before you urge Fuu to close in, however, you see someone exiting the smoke-

A red-headed man in an Akatsuki uniform.

Who the hell is this supposed to be? Where was he the whole fight?

Is this… the real Sasori?

You…

1. Close in to investigate!

2. Hide within the smoke and debris from the explosion until the man leaves!

On the minus side Yoru just fell into a deep pit in a damaged robot with barely enough structural integrity to support itself. Hope he designed that thing to be drop safe. Also, darkness + massive amounts of obstructing rubble + Sasori = INVISIBLE S-CLASS NINJA WITH CLOUDS OF DEADLY POISON GAS!

>>727222

>>727222

We should tell fuu to drop us off so we can call in reinforcements while she goes back to help them.
We can't fight anymore, but we can bring help.

With most of the fighting over, people should start converging on this hot zone.

>>727304
Except we had a mansion the size of the Biltmore Hosue full of traps to put between us and them, we outnumbered them heavily, we knew the terrain much better, one was 16 and inexperienced, and we had a good reason not to turn her over. We were reasonable in assuming that we could pull through in a fight with them, if only barely. And we did.

Dude, what else would I think from "one's own life is more important than another's?" That's a perfect example of psychopathic thinking. And not having empathy for someone else? What else do am I supposed to think. Everything you've said is completely devoid of empathy. And before you say "it's a fake character" you're not talking about the character. You're talking in a general sense, it could apply to real life situations too.

>Legendary ninja
An inexperienced 16 year old? Reputation doesn't always mean everything, you know

>Outnumbered them heavily
Fuu and her guys were perfectly fine. We were at like 90%, and Shikamaru barely needs to move to do his thing. Choji was the only real weak link

>Knew the terrain better
We were guiding them. Does that not count?

>one was 16
Completely ignoring the "inexperienced" part. He couldn't do most of his dangerous stuff yet

>Which was what? Beyond "we like her"
The reason was she was the reason they attacked the village and came after us. They're here for her, and since they attacked our home and our friends, it was in our best interest not to let them take her. Spite is a thing you know, it's when someone hurts something you like. That isn't yourself.

You instruct Fuu to fly into the smoke and dust to hide yourselves-

You don’t know if this is Sasori, or another entirely different Akatsuki member- and you’re in no shape to fight him. Besides, you need to try and save those who fell- and you can’t do that if you’re trying to fight someone.

You hover in the clouds of smoke for what seems like hours- even though it was likely only a few minutes.

After a few more, Fuu flies above the smokescreen to see if the man is gone- and indeed, there’s no trace of him.

You can’t guarantee he isn’t still lurking around, but you aren’t going to be able to help father and the others just by waiting.

Instructing Fuu to land as stealthily as possible, she gently glides down, finding an area that seems somewhat stable.

The manor seems to have collapsed upon itself- though only a few areas seem to have punctured down into the basement- or even the subbasement, where those unable to fight were hiding.

You’ll need to clear the rubble to free them, but-

Wait, you see something!

Rubble shifts, then gives way- a large inflated Choji seems to be holding up a particularly heavy piece.
You don’t think you’ve ever been quite so happy to see the chubby shinobi- you make a mental note to feed him Maru’s cooking again sometime soon. He certainly does look worse for wear- as do Shikamaru and Sai, who are with him.

You sneak over to them, speaking in a low whisper.

“Guys, you’re alive!”

“Barely.” Choji grunts. “If it wasn’t for my body expansion technique, I think we’d all be dead.”

“Nice save, as always, Choji.” Shikamaru says, patting his friend on the back.

“Is anyone still about?” Sai inquires.

“We saw a man with red hair leave a little while ago- but nobody else.” Fuu whispers, having joined your side.

“Alright, Team, we need to figure out what we’re doing from here. We need more-” Shikamaru starts.

“I need to find my Dad.” You interject.

He’s a bit taken aback, but eventually Shikamaru just nods.

“He wasn’t that far from us, but it’s hard to sat where the machine may have landed…”

Your team of five spreads out, and before too long, Choji calls you over.

“I think this is the entry hatch, anyway. It’s locked from the inside, though.” He explains.

“Could you pry it open, Choji?” You ask. “When this is all over, I’m sure Maru will reward you with a buffet.”

A new light in his eyes, he nods emphatically.

He performs some hand seals, then quickly expanded to nearly triple his size. Along with the others, you help clear away some debris, as Choji begins to heave.

A vein becomes visible on his head as his struggles- finally, you hear a hinge pop- then another- and finally the door is ripped free.

Inside is your father- unmoving.

You're the one who doesn't understand how humans think if you honestly believe the average person is willing to intentionally throw away not just their own life, but a room full of people's just to protect one person.

>reputation doesn't always mean everything
Yes, i'm sure they just hand out s-class status like fucking hotcakes, nevermind we know for a fact he's the real deal.

>fuu and her guys were fine
One of the few. Both of her guards died instantly anyways, and fuu herself could hardly keep up with a heavily injured and weakened deidara.

>we were guiding them, does that not count?
Not in the middle of combat with a room full of people, no. What are you going to do, explain to each of them the layout of the building as you fight for your lives?

>they attacked the village to get to her, therefore we shouldn't let them have her
Except they would immediately stop attacking the village having completed their mission, reducing damage to the village and saving lives.
You literally just admitted you only wanted to do this out of spite, not for a logical reason like actually protecting the village. She wasn't one of us, she's from another village.

>explain how it's not reasonable

I would imagine he got knocked the fuck out from the fall.
Being inside a mech doesn't actually protect against gravity.

Fuu can fly off now that deidara's dead and we can in an emergency fuck off to the moon. If we had failed the sneak check we would've been fine.

Oh. Oh no.

No no no no.

Immediately you push past Choji into the cramped cockpit of the machine.

Crying, you shake Yoru Norihime.

You aren’t ready for this- you can’t be.

You hug his body tightly-

Only for a hand to weakly pat you on the head.

You look at your father- one eye open, but smiling.

“Sorry sweetheart- did I scare you? I didn’t mean to.”

His voice is faint- but he seems to be alright- until he tries to move.

“Agh- Tsuki dear, I think my leg is stuck.” He groans.

You look down- and just like that, the lump in your throat rises again.

His left leg is pinned under the crumpled metal of the machine- bloodstains visible on his pantleg.

“Father, your leg is…” You mumble.

“Pinned, is it?” He sighs.

“I should’ve been more careful. I never intended it to be used in this state- and I didn’t put nearly enough attention into the safety precautions.”

He groans again- seems his adrenaline might be wearing off.

“Leave me here, Tsuki. Go, and check on the village. Find Danzo. I can only hope we got at least one of those bastards.”

“...we did. The blonde bomber- Deidara- is dead. I think the other one is still alive, but he’s gone.” You report.

He gives you a faint smile.

“Danzo would be proud. Stay out of trouble, Tsuki- just find Danzo. He’ll know what needs to be done.”

1. Alright, you’ll hunt down Danzo.

2. No- you need to stay here to protect him, and the others below.
>>
>>727493
Yup and that was a coward's option.
>>

This is giving me some serious "don't see me die" vibe.
>>
>>727513
>1. Alright, you’ll hunt down Danzo.
>>
>>727513
fuck dude, pry the metal up and bind his leg.
we can find danzo after that.

i'm sure a bunch of ninja can manage to bend or cut through some metal.
>>
Get a medic from the people hiding below?
>>
>>727513
>1. Alright, you’ll hunt down Danzo.
>>
ask Choji if he can giant man the beam off of Yoru?
>>
>>727513
I have a distinct feeling that if we don't save him here, he's not going to make it.

>Other: Fetch a medic from down below and try to extract him from the mech
>>
>>727528
We did just come from the hospital, there be one or two medics if not medical ninja still with us, right?
I don't want to have to worry about him bleeding out while we're gone.
>>
>>727527
The rest of the ASA is entirely covered in rubble- Choji just found the cockpit door. You could feasible do it, but it would take a lot of time. You'd also need to get the people from below, or take Yoru there.
>>
>>727537
I don't see a reason not to.
The fighting has died down in the village, and we're not in danger here anymore.

I think we can take a little time to make sure our father doesn't die.
>>
>>727513
Ok so we are voting to leave the others here and the staff take care of him maybe slice him out the rubble first before leaving him too medics.

We go find dadzo
>>
>>727541
The fighting has died down in MOST of the village, yes. There is an option for staying.

Well, we don't need to personally oversee it.
Just grabbing some people to help him out before taking off shouldn't take too long, right?

I realize that, anon.
I mean any amount of time seems fairly insignificant considering the issue at hand.
>>
>>727544
I'll clarify my vote to this.

We fetch the people from below to save Yoru, then we go out to search for Danzo.

The others can get our dad to help, we have to go find our other dad and witness his death scene find out what's going on!

Ok, finding Danzo still wins-

You can still

1. Tell everyone else to stay behind with Yoru, and tell them where the door to the subbasement is.

2. Bring a person or two with you to seach for Danzo, leave the rest here.

3. Bring everyone, leave Yoru here alone.

“Shikamaru, You still have that remote my dad gave you?” You call out.

“Hm? Yeah, I’ve still got it.” He responds, holding up the remote.

“Great. Listen- I need you guys to use that to open the door to the sub-basement- that’s where Ino and the others are. Once you do that, I need you to help them free my dad, and patch him up. Ok?” You instruct.

He raises an eyebrow at you.

“And what will you be doing?”

“I need to find Danzo- and figure out what’s going on in the village.” You respond.

“...Alone?”

“You guys need to stay here to protect the civilians, and those who cannot fight. Fuu needs to stay here too- if they’re after her, bringing her right back into the village is probably a bad idea. Once you get him inside, you guys can re-engage the defenses.” You explain.

Shikamaru shrugs, then gives a deep sigh.

“Don’t get yourself killed, Tsuki. Not after all we’ve done. Alright?”

You smile.

“Who do you take me for, Shika? Besides, you owe me a rematch in Shogi.” You tease.

He frowns

“Since when? Ah, whatever. Just be careful.” He says, walking off towards where the sub-basement entrance is supposed to be.

You say goodbye to the others- Fuu is especially worried about you.

“Hey now, Tsuki! You shouldn’t go alone! We work great as a team- even Chomei says so!” She chides.

“We do- but those people are after you. Your other friends gave so much to make sure they didn’t get you- and I don’t plan on letting their sacrifices be in vain.” you respond.

She frowns, looking aside at the rubble.

“Both of them were always keeping me safe. I guess I should be more responsible, huh? Alright, I’ll stay- but promise me you’ll be careful! Promise me!” She begs.

“Promise, Fuu.” You say, flashing her a Norihime smile.

With that, you leave the rubble of your destroyed home- to head towards the village.

----------------------

CHARACTER CHANGE!

You are now playing as [NORI UZUMAKI]

Prepare yourselves!

-----------------------------

Today might just be the worst day of your life- and since becoming a shinobi, you’ve had quite a few crummy days.

First, Tsuki decided to decided to mess with Ichiraku’s and try to force you into quitting the exams- then on top of that, she beat you, after you lost in the arena!

Man, that girl- she’s something else. There’s a heart down there, for sure, but it’s buried under a pile of ryo bills. Or something.

Then, you make up, and somebody’s attacking the village! Seriously, the hell is with today?

Whatever, at least you found Grandpa Jiraiya- without him and his toads, you really aren’t sure if those Uchiha guys would’ve been able to deal with the One-Tails- speaking of which, damn, the One-Tails is Gaara! You weren’t expecting that, though the kid was definitely creepy enough.

“Nori, keep up. We need to find your Dad- I’ve got a bad feeling.” Jiraiya says, walking a few paces ahead of you.

“Yeah, I’m here. Don’t worry about me- I couldn’t lose your sleazy toadface even if I wanted to!” You quip.

Normally that would make the old man laugh- but he doesn’t.

Ever since that winged woman showed up and took Gaara away, he’s been different- more serious. He won’t tell you what’s going on, either- he just keeps saying that you need to find your dad. Which, you guess is important- he’s the Hokage, after all- but seriously, he’s probably fine. Nobody would mess with the Yellow Flash- right?

The again, you can feel it too- something is very wrong. Why would Suna betray you? You and your team were just there- you even saw the Kazekage! They didn’t seem unfriendly, or anything…

It puzzles you. You’ll be the first to admit that most of the political stuff Dad talks about is beyond you- but he seemed so sure it was a good idea when you had talked to him about it. You suppose even your Dad is capable of making mistakes- not that Naruto would ever believe it.

Speaking of your brother- you hope he’s alright. Knowing him he’d get in over his head trying to prove himself- but you’d hope he’s smarter than that.

You sigh.

Today’s been such a drag, you’re ready for bed.

Instead of complaining any more though, you pick up the pace to stand beside Grandpa Jiraiya- better not make the old guy worry any more than he already is. His hair is already all white as it is!

The two of you continue down the road towards your Dad’s offices- and when the sounds of battle reach you, both of you take off in a run.

----------------------------
>>
>>727632
Honestly, I really want to learn more about Chomei. He's a tailed beast who doesn't bear a grudge against humanity, and talking with him might help reveal to Tsuki a lot of the history behind the tailed beasts. Seeing as so much of the shit in the past was caused by people seeing the tailed beasts as crazed, mindless animals instead of intelligent beings, he might even be grateful to just speak with another being who's not his jinchuuriki, even if he keeps mum about anything interesting.

>>727645
I imagine they'll be warmer to the idea of one with Konoha when Fuu tells Shibuki [s]how their genin chose to face down the Akatsuki rather than forsake her[/s] how many friends she made there, and how everyone who wasn't invading was really nice.

So anons, which major (konoha) characters do you think are going to die? In order of likelihood I think:

>Jiraiya
>Minato
>Hiruzen
>Kushina
>Danzo
>Naruto
>Itachi
>Sasuke
>Nori
>Hinata

I'm probably expecting 2 out of the top 5. Maybe 1 out of the bottom 5 if Wargle wants to shock us.

>>728185
Nobody wants someone to die, even if Minato is shit. This is what we think will happen.
>>
>>728125
The only ones I'm reasonably confident will survive are
>Naruto
>Sasuke
>Nori
>Hinata
And Tsuki, I guess.

If this incident with Minato goes as I'm guessing, then it's going to be Nori helping fight against whoever's attacking Minato, with Minato and Jiraiya as the expendable crutch characters. If something goes wrong in the fight, it's going to be Minato or Jiraiya that die first.

Also, though it's sheer and blatant metagaming, I'd bet that Minato and Kushina are more likely to die than the rest because they already died in the real timeline, and their deaths would just be bringing the tragedy quotient up to par with the main timeline's, so to speak.

As for everyone else, I can easily see any of them turning up dead.
>>
Tsuki will find danzo just as he is about to use his reverse yin seal to take several enemy shinobi with him. She'll lose it and go full bloodrage, kill several assholes, pass out\ get knocked out by sensei and as a result attain 3.5 - 4/5 stellar by the time shge wakes up a week later. Nori will watch her wreck shit with shock and concern.

Soooooo
How did do you think danzo is?
On a scale of sneked to complete fucking disintegration
>>
>>729108
Danzo is probably fine.
I'm moderately worried about itachi and minato.

No your the retard because your response was full autismo, whether you're right or not is irrelevant.

You're just as bad as him.
Keep that cocksocket shut, friendo.

More importantly, how many Akatsuki do you think died here?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRdg1MOYxHo
>>
>>729108
He's probably fine, Minato, not so much
>>
>>729127
Let's see...

>Deidara
Fucking rekt
>Hidan
Has killed someone. If his combatant doesn't know about his ritual, they probably die. Will probably be neutralised in revenge.
>Kakazu
Probably alive. Unless his hearts are taken out in one hit, he'll most likely retreat when he gets low.
>Kisame
Likely alive. Too goddamn strong.
>Konan
Alive.
>Orochimaru
Alive for now. Can only be killed here by Jiraiya, Minato or Hiruzen and may take his opponent down with him.
>Sasori
Alive.
>Pain
Alive but possibly not for long.

>Tobi
>Zetsu
Dear god I hope they're not here.
>>
>>729173
Minato probably got ganged up on and overwhelmed if not the backlash from his carelessness may just fuck everything up for him

For danzo it all depends on what he did

If he tried to help Minato he got fucking curbstomped

If he went for garaa than he's probably fine
>>
>>729193
I don't think Minato's dead yet, the dude is fast and definitely not easy to pin down. If he does die he'll bring down the biggest threat/s with him. He has shadow clones, teleportation, and death seal. Not hard to see how those fit together.
>>
>>729202
But he also had to fight the kazekage,pain,and some other akatsuki members

If he does manage to survive all it would take is one good "why the FUCK did you let this happen?" speech when everyone is still shocked by the events and he may be over thrown
>>
>>729218
If Danzo or Yoru ends up biting it and Minato makes it through, she's going to go completely black ops and make sure Minato gets overthrown

Well, this is the sort of situation where you roll with it - recriminations can wait. We don't know what the Hokage knew, what his plan was, what he was advised to do, etc. If he was clearly at fault and has to go, he'll leave willingly or get pushed out by the village high ups. Not by some jumped up genin.

We should probably hold off on our shadow war/coup plan until we get all the details of the invasion finalized

>>729244
Also by the way, it's been forty threads.
When are we getting our kiba?
>>
>>729284
The guidelines for aquiring the Kiba were set when you turned them in.

Why not go ask Minato about it?

:^D
>>
>>729293
Oh god he's dead
>>
>>729293
Because we're nori, because he might be dead, because who the fuck knows where he is.

But the exams are over, and i think we've proven ourselves capable of wielding them at this point.
The only issue i see arising is minato being a fag and withholding them because secret ninja politics.
>>
>>729308
The exams ended near the end of the third round were pain came out and talked trash
Minato had literally no time to give us the swords because he was dealing with both pain and the kazekage
>>
>>729328
The swords weren't even a thought in anyone's head at that time, what are you even talking about.
>>
>>729337
That may have been my reading comprehension going into the shit leagues
I thought you wanted the kiba now
>>
>>729352
I do.
I want to get them as soon as possible, preferably right after finding danzo, who's probably by the hokage's office anyways.

Nobody was talking about trying to get them during the exam, which minato forbade, or immediately once we were under attack.
>>
>>729365
>Implying the swords aren't just about to be reclaimed by Kisame
>>
>>729365
As I said my reading comprehension going to the shitter
>>
>>729230
Ugh, you can't get any more edgy? Tsuki is loyal to the village even if the leader isn't exactly the type she wants. A good soldier protects his/her leader even if they disagree with them. If you do that then you will have to fight Noir.
>>
>>729390
Okay lets just follow the man in charge forever even if he is unfit for the job. And if thats the case then better take back that money we put into Root since Root goes directly against what Minato wants.
>>
>>729396
You're autistic as fuck aren't you
>>
>>729396
Here's a novel idea: let's not betray the leader of our village just because he's an idealistic fool.

Revolutions are seldom simple and painless, and anyone planning a revolt against the village leader during a conflict is at least as much of a danger to the village as the S-class nins who are currently tearing it apart. If you don't like it, convince him to retire instead of damaging the unity that Konoha needs to survive the conflict.
>>
>>729434
He fucked up pretty hard desu.
A lot of people died today.
>>
>>729451
>implying that's not the fault of the people who tried to kill everyone.
>>
>>729456
Of course, you can never blame a leader for being so unprepared and complacent as to allow this to happen, especially on such a massive scale in the first place.

I'm not saying lynch him, i'm saying call his ability as a leader into question.
>>
>>729451
>It was his fault that a crazy kid flipped out and cause a demon to rampaged
lol
>>
>>729451
I'm gonna say again, wait and see. We're not in the inner circle of the village leadership and don't know what went down. For now and a while after the attack, we should think of nothing but protecting Konoha. It's not the time to start divisions.
>>
>>729466
So do you hate Tsunade and Hiruzen too?
>>
>>729467
>he didn't stop it when gaara did it, he didn't stop it when his own daughter did it, and in fact he stopped other people from stopping it

>>729472
They didn't do a very good job of preventing these things either. Just saying.
>>
>>729466
>implying it's his fault for not being autistic and planning for every possibility in existence.
>>
>>729466
Nobody could prepare for this shit

Half the people invading are Kage tier and some surpass that

Without being on red alert at all times and simply being much stronger as a village in general theres not really anything you can do
>>
>>729485
What the fuck are they suppose to do about the crush?
>>
Instead of plotting against Minato, it's more productive to plot against his replacements. If he dies, who's currently in the running, and who do we NOT want in office?

Obviously Danzo, while optimal for us, isn't in the running
We need to watch out for the Uchiha trying to edge their way in
Jiraiya isn't the worst choice, but he really won't want it
There's Tsunade, if weird shit didn't go down with her
Hiruzen is way too old, but might get forced back in anyway
Kakashi could do the job if no one else is left

Who else is in the running? Who else do we WANT in the running?
>>
>>729490
Conceivably, he made a mistake by letting the sound (more importantly, Orochimaru) in. My guess is he was trying to use the opportunity to remove snek. The vast majority of the force though was random Akatsuki attack. Nobody could have prevented that, those fuckers can slip in anywhere undetected.
>>
>>729496

Somehow know everything that would happen and everyone involved and plan against it all, of course.

What else would they do?

/s
>>
>>729490
>>729496
It should have been stopped before it began.

Before these people were able to run wild for years and years, then team up and plan the destruction of konoha.
They should have been hunted down one by one and slaughtered.
"But it's haaaaaaard" -Hokage
>>
>>729498
Itachi is probably in the running but it would be better he didn't get it considering he shared Minato's beliefs for the most part. We would probably want someone who slides closer to Danzo like Tenzo or maybe Shikaku
>>
>>729498
Danzo would be great for us, but it'd be suspicious.

Kakashi is Minato's right hand man, I'm not comfortable with their leadership tbqh.

Tsunade is a good middle ground, we'd have to find her and convince her though.
>>
>>729490
the mistakes that led to this are years in the past. letting Akatsuki get this powerful in the first place by failing to keep track of and control known S-class factors, like allowing Orochimaru relatively free reign or leaving creatures like Hidan and Kakuzu unchecked. what is leaf's intelligence department even doing, if not keeping track of the army killers?
>>
Man you guys are just eating up that bait.
>>
>>729451
They died because he was an idealist who didn't expect the people attending to betray him, and with regards to the Sound (who he knew were enemies) he couldn't have refused them without insulting the Kazekage who invited them along, which would have not only started the same conflict with the Sand that he was hoping to avoid, but would have gotten him labeled as the one who started it in the eyes of the world.

It's easy to judge the actions of leaders when you aren't the one making the decisions; he probably realized that the joint exam was a mistake back when the Sound appeared with the Sand, but was in too far to back out without enormous political backlash, and not just from the Sand and Sound.

That said, let me ask you this question:
Do you think he will make the same mistake again?
>>
>>729529
here's your (You)
>>
>>729501
Yeah Akatsuki would fuck with any kage in any country

The Orochi stuff I feel is honestly just something thats lasted because canon

>>729515
The Mist is recruited for most missing nin and each village deals with it's own missing nin unless they fuck with them, like now the leafs gonna be going for akatsuki because now they have done something against us. How many Akatsuki members are defects from the leaf? One Sannin who is pretty much impossible to kill compared to everyone else it doesnt seem all that bad
>>
>>729542
Clearly not shit gets done like that, so such a policy should have long since been changed.
Missing nin are a problem for every country, not just the ones they came from.

Enough about gobbies and missing nin. Let's talk the real important stuff. How will Tsuki rebuild the ramen shop to attract more consumers? Free meals? Half off? Introducing a new food?
>>
>>729571
Well thats the way the world works cant blame a Kage for the way everything is.

The mist gets payed to hunt down peoples missing nin, if the Leaf decided to hunt everybody else's missing nin on some kind of crusade they risk many lives as well as distributing man power so that if other villages want to they can invade/kidnap villagers for jutsu etc

Too risky to waste resources on other peoples issues, after this however most villages will go on a hunt because of the danger but after that it'll just go back to normal

>But it's haaaaaard
>Not weakening the village's military strength by diverting sizable resources into conducting operations in foreign territories against a shadow organization consisting of some of the strongest ninja in the world who aren't even messing with your country

This is exactly what I mean when I say some people don't understand what it means to be a leader. It's easy to assume that he's just playing drunken darts to decide things when you have no concept of statecraft or political influences and consequences.
>>
>>729591
the one millionth customer gets to have sex with Ayame
>>
>>729594
I'm saying that every country should not only hunt down everyone's missing nin, but that they should assist each other in doing so, providing publicly their last known location, general abilities and so on.

When you just leave shit like this, it festers until something like this happens.
Everyone in narutoverse is retarded, i think.

Not retarded just highly strung

Too many big Shinobi Wars have happened, everybody's tense and scared of anybody getting a one up on them. It's like nuclear warfare but some nukes go loose and you gotta waste nukes to stop them. Have a junchuuriki die or a kage die and your in for tons of invasions and kidnappings. Neji's fathers death was a glimpse into this.

You kill what you have to so that your village is protected anything else is insanity. The Akatsuki is a bizarre mesh of them banding together which nobody expected and I assume has never happened before. I'm sure it will change somewhat post war but even then we know shit goes south in Boruto so maybe nothing changes. It's all a cycle in Naruto after all.

That's what i don't get more than anything.

>Why bother warring? land? taxes? Just form a united nations and split it.
Same reason it doesn't happen irl
>>
>>729667
One of the wars was purely resource based but it doesnt specify much else on that.

And some parts of Naruto has televisions, modern day cookers and other random crap. They have all kinds of monitors and advanced cloning technology, it's honestly pretty all over the place.

All the cool shit goes towards war fronts for the most part but you never really see much of it.
>>
>>729667
How many S class ninjas do we have? The sort who, upon finding an Akatsuki member, won't just immediately die? Yes, we have a lot of ninjas, but hunting for Akatsuki is a bit like fighting a guerilla war against ten super-rambos.
>>
>>729680
But there's no reason to fight over resources, which are abundant.
There is no overpopulation, even konoha, which is huge for this world, isn't very big.

Most of the land anyone would fight over is completely empty because there's no reason to have anything there, not for farmland or anything, because there aren't lots of people.
>>
>>729694
Yeah, they flip-flop around on tech like crazy.
They have VCRs but the main mode of transportation is still horse and carriage or just walking.

>>729620
Its not just politics, its also a military matter. Resources that Iwa is wasting hunting down Deidara are resources they're not spending on trying to snipe missions out from under Konoha. Until you have good evidence Deidara is inclined to fuck with Konoha its in Konoha's interests to just let him fucking be.
>>
>>729804
That's the attitude that got us where we are today.
>>
>>729811
You don't want to solve your enemy's problems for them, because they aren't going to turn around and solve your problems for you, they're going to cause you more problems. Sounds to me like the real idealist here... is you.
>>
>>729861
Yes, it would be ideal if we could just stop being retarded and work together as nations to take care of problems like these before they become significant instead of going HURR WHAT IF YOU BACKSTAB ME FOR SOME REASON.

How about you just DON'T backstab at all.
That would probably work.
>>
>>729701
>But there's no reason to fight over resources, which are abundant
I think I'm starting to see why you have trouble discerning the reasons behind the behavior of the village leaders.

Most nations, even in the real world, do not trust each other unconditionally. As any and all weakness can and usually will be capitalized upon by outsiders (even trusted allies), the only things that nations can truly rely on are themselves and their own resources.

This gives birth to a zero-sum philosophy among world leaders with regard to international politics, balanced between their own nation and everyone else. A nation that suddenly developed powerful and advanced weaponry would thus be feared by (and likely subsequently subjected to sabotage by) other nations, even if the nation in question was trusted or allied with all the other nations. The same would be true of a nation that somehow obtained an unprecedented source of economic wealth, or one that somehow developed a means to superpower their agriculture.

Nations are fearful of other nations accumulating power, because there is always the risk of that power being turned against them. The new weapons could be used against their soldiers, the strong economy could be used to manipulate international affairs, and even the bountiful agriculture could be used to develop a hegemony of economic reliance upon their favor. That is why nations are always reluctant to cheer the successes of other nations, even the ones they are allied with.

Ironically, Minato himself was the one trying to overcome this innate distrust between nations, and he ended up suffering what the other nations naturally feared would happen: being brutally backstabbed by those you received in good faith.
>>
>>729875

Uh dude, I don't know if you noticed but we don't have any control over the other nations or their reactions to us. So yes, when dealing with international politics in a fucking ninja world you have to factor backstabbing into your considerations.
>>
>>729875
We're not even getting into backstabs. This is still frontstab territory.

Really there were two options for Minato.
go the isolationist route and build more defenses like the rain, strive for higher standarts among soldiers and make konoah a crapsack village. Won't make assets like tsunade come back like this.
or
realpolitik this shit like he did. The village is gonna survive but it's gonna have to be rebuilt (wich is equivalent to improving the defenses considering the work to be done). And it's gonna be rebuilt better since in this universe we got the norihime family.
The martyr complex of the population boosts the ninja recruitment drive. All potential allies rush back to the village and we get bragging rights at the impending ninja ONU.
>>
>>731575

>carelessness
> Implying that Minato's plan was any worse than Hiruzen's canon "Let these chumps attacks us so we can show off how awesome we are by kicking them in the dick when they try to backstab us."
Seriously, I do not understand this attitude.
The reason the plans go haywire is Orochimaru trapping Hiruzen in the barrier in canon/the Akatsuki turning up in quest.
Neither of these things could have been predicted and without them happening the plan would have been fine and Sand/Sound would have gotten their faces kicked in when they walked into the trap the Leaf had lain out for them.
And before someone tries to bring up the absurd notion that he's too idealistic consider that in the 3rd war his response to a battle going poorly was "Personally Kill Everyone That I Can See".
And hell let's go back to this invasion;
He knows it's coming and he deliberately lets them come, turning their own trap against them. Knowing full well that a bunch of low rankers and civilians are gonna get it, Minato accepted that as acceptable losses to lure in the best of Sands forces where the Leaf can swarm and overwhelm them while also taking the chance to crush the upstart Sound village.
See this is what happens when you don't even try to look underneath the underneath. You take the smiling face and kind words presented and accept that as the whole of the man, letting yourselves forget that Minato is a Ninja Dictator running a village full of superhuman assassins, who has personally spilt enough blood and viscera to drown the entirety of us questors in gore. He is a nice person only by virtue of being a human blender strong enough to be merciful in a world of remorseless killers.
Step it up, you're supposed to be Shinobi and Kunoichi of the Leaf and not screaming Academy dropouts.
>>
>>731649
THEY'RE NINJAS THEIR JOB IS SPYING ON PEOPLE.

Getting caught by suprise is failing their one real job.
>>
When we rebuild Ichiraku's we need to protect our investment by incorporating a security system that can turn it into an armored bunker with automatic turrets.

For bonus points, don't tell Ichiraku about it, just put a big red button on the wall with a fancy safety cover that reads "In case of village assault".
>>
>>732026
If we get the contract to rebuild the village we can do that EVERYWHERE, it'll be great
>>
>>731969
Right so not knowing about the beyond secret organisation that Konoha's Master Spymaster spent years uncovering scraps about is somehow a failure.
You've badly underestimated how well hidden the Akatsuki was/is. 10 ninja of Living Legend status deliberately hiding from the world just ain't gonna be found.
Frankly in canon the only reason anyone knew anything of the slightest substance is that Itachi was sending out what little info he could.
We don't have a spy this time.
It was actually impossible to see them coming.

What it'd be is Switzerland.

Perhaps you need to reconsider what you just said.
>>
>>736460
Uniforms? What uniforms?
You see a guy walking down the street wearing a nice cloak with some red clouds on it and you think 'Man what a nice looking cloak.' And then you forget about it because it's just some clothes.
Literally no one is going to look at an artsy traveling cloak and think to themselves 'Yeah that's clearly the uniform of some organisation.'
This is basic ninja shit. You get ignored because you're wearing cloths.
