Shinobi Quest #20

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 teammates returned home from their mission. Tsuki opted to travel with Itachi and Guy to the Hokage’s office, where she was greeted by a council of clan leaders. During the explanation of the events of the mission, Tsuki seemingly drew the ire of Fugaku Uchiha, which eventually erupted into a full scale argument. After resolving it, the Fourth asked her to pledge loyalty to him in front of the other clan elders, which she did. Afterwards, Tsuki and Itachi had a private conversation at the top of the Hokage mountain….

We return moments later, as Tsuki heads inside her family manor. Having learned some things from Itachi, she is full of questions….

You walk the grounds outside your family home- it’s good just to be out here, a place so familiar and safe. Eventually after making a lap, you see Maru. You run up and give her a hug, which she returns with warmth.

“Welcome home, Tsuki-dono!” she says with a smile.

“I’m glad to be back.” you say earnestly.

You have some questions, although Maru isn’t the person you should ask.

You…

1. Inquire about Danzo’s location.
2. Inquire about Father’s location.
3. Make small talk with Maru instead.

Yay! And only slightly late!

>>48067115
I don't think we would need to kill our friends to make our dreams come true. We have money and brains.

>>48067134

Would she become Masto? Or Masfrom?

>>48067139

True, but it'd help. I think.

Masfrom (Masculine from)

Went right over my head, so Nori would be our Guts, Hinata would be Judah, Sakura would be Corkus, and TenTen would be Pippin. Whose Costco?
>>
>>48067248

I dunno.

I haven't read Berserk. I just know some stuff from references, googling things, etc.

I really need to read it at some point.

>>48067248
Don't 100% agree but Nori as Guts is hilarious and very accurate.
>>
>>48067315

Will we encounter Rape Bijuu?
>>
>>48067353
Yes. Because is not Berserk without rape.
>>
>>48067352
How would you set up the rest of the gang?
>>
>>48067408

I'd say Hinata is Pippin, from what I looked up.

After some chatting, you feel like you’ve caught up with Maru. It’s almost been two weeks, but it seems as usual, she’s focused more on taking care of Father than herself.

Speaking of Father…

“Maru, where might Father be? I’d like to see him.” you inquire.

“Ah, we had just finished up dinner- although he’s probably back in his study by now.” she guesses.

She’s probably right.

“Thank you, Maru. I’ll talk to you later, ok?” you say, running off towards the side entrance to the manse.

She just laughs and waves as you take off.

You go inside, then round the corner to climb the central stairs. You take a left and then a right, and head straight to Father’s study.

The door is open- good.

You knock.

“Aha! My precious shinobi has returned from her mission? Please come in, dear.” you hear him say.

Father’s study looks unchanged- always in various states of disarray. As you walk inside, he rises from his chair, and greets you with a large embrace, lifting you off the ground.

He spins with you in his arms, and you both laugh.

After a moment, he sets you down.

“You know you’re not going to be able to do that forever, Father.” you tease.

“Bah, don’t remind me. You’re growing up too fast as it is. Part of me wants to keep my little princess forever- but I wouldn’t deign to keep you from the world. Mostly I just want to see what my little girl can accomplish.” he says, resting his hand on your head.

“And you *will* always be my little girl. No matter how much you grow nor how old and gray I become.” He finishes.

You hug him.

“Thanks, Dad.”

You did have some questions... but is now the time?

1. Ask Dad some questions...
2. Don't. Don't want to ruin the moment.
3. Don't. Wait and ask Danzo instead.

>>
>>48067624
Right, but no other characters would make sense in context. Oh, and Orochimaru is definitely Zodd.

:'D
>>
>>48067591
>1. Ask Dad some questions...
It's got to happen sooner or later.
>>
>>48067611
>>48067624

We aren't, but Nori might.
>>
>>48067657
Nah Wyld but more for the character type not what happens. Zod is fitting as fuck though.
>>
>>48067591
>3. Don't. Wait and ask Danzo instead.
We are daddies lil girl. For once he seems so very happy let him have that.
>>
>>48067591
3. Don't. Wait and ask Danzo instead.
>>
>>48067662
>We rape Hinata to get to Nori

Sounds about right
>>
>>48067591
3. Don't. Wait and ask Danzo instead.
>>
Not asking Dad, asking Danzo instead.

Writing.
>>
>>48067591
Didn't we loot a lot of stuff during that mission? We should show it to him and see if he can make anything of it.
>>
>>48067807
We should totally BAWKS OF SKRAPS with dad sometime.
>>
Well the two Katana that Samurai used are made of Chakra conducting metal so we actually just got some rather nice loot. Unless Wargle says they are not.
>>
“Did everything go as planned on your mission, sweetheart?” your father asks.

“.....yes. Everything went according to plan. I brought some things back for you to look at- but we can do that later. I need to speak with Danzo shortly.” You say, not looking at your father when you say it.

“Haha, old man has you on a strict leash, does he? Well, I certainly won’t be the one to hold up your training, my dear. Hurry along, just let me know whenever you have some spare time, alright?” He says, beaming.

[You can now choose to spend time with Yoru Norihime during free periods. This may increase your INT, as well as lead to technological breakthroughs.]

You head down to the basement. You didn’t see Danzo anywhere in the house- and that means he could only be one place.

After a few moments, you reach his bedchamber.

The door is open. Danzo… doesn’t seem to be here?

Were you wrong…?

1. Wait patiently for Danzo
2. Go look for him somewhere else.
3. Take a look around his quarters
>write-in

>>48067975
>1. Wait patiently for Danzo
He's testing us
>>
>>48067807
No need to bother him about it, we could do it ourselves. Which leads to the question: What should our first building project be?

I think the most useful thing we could make is some sort of storage seal system to carry all our stuff, but that's not really useful until we have at least two other things.

Right now I think we should try to learn chakra infusion. Luckily we have two swords, so we can afford to test out stellar relese and see if it can hold up.

You take a seat on his bed and wait.

And wait…..
…..and wait.

Eventually, you find yourself beginning to doze off….

For some reason, this doesn’t seem to bother you….

You feel yourself drifting upon a great sea- it’s waves rocking you gently back and forth…
You…

By the way folks I think when training with Danzo we should focus on using our release internally for the speed and strength boost. As we improve our strength naturally this will boost us further and get is so fast we leave charred ground and flickering blue flames as we go full quick silver.

You sit up.

...where are you? Breathing is… difficult.

A vast blue sky surrounds you on all sides- you don’t even have anything to stand on.

The clouds seem to be moving very quickly, almost if time itself was accelerated.

It’s all rather disorienting- until you see clouds beginning to accumulate around you.

Your vision quickly becomes obscured, the thick grey of the clouds drowning out the clear blue sky.

You spin on your heel, trying to find any spot not being choked by ever darkening clouds- it is then when you see it- a great pair of yellow eyes.

“NORIHIME.” the voice rumbles. It impossibly loud, like a thunderclap in a great storm.

“WILL THE PRINCESS BECOME THE QUEEN? WILL THE QUEEN UNITE HER PEOPLE? OR DESTROY THEM?”

It’s voice is punctuated by a great roar- but from behind you.

A second pair of eyes leers are you from behind the cloud cover.

“WILL YOU HAVE THE FEROCITY TO DESTROY THEM? OR WILL YOUR COMPASSION BE THE END OF ALL THINGS?” This new voice says, just as loud, with a burning intensity.

A intense rumbling beneath you throws you off your balance- and causes you to look down. A third pair of eyes stares back.

“THE EARTH WEEPS. BUT DOES IT WEEP FOR YOU? OR DOES IT WEEP FOR ITSELF? YOU MUST BE STRONG, LITTLE ONE. STRONG AS THE EARTH BENEATH YOUR FEET.”

Far above, the call of a great bird silences the rumbling of the earth.

“DANGER FROM ALL SIDES. ABOVE AND BELOW, WITHIN AND BEYOND. WILL YOU RISE FROM THE ASHES, NORIHIME? OR BECOME KINDLING FOR THE FIRES OF SOMEONE ELSE’S FATE?”


All four voices speak in unison-

“WE ARE WATCHING, TSUKI NORIHIME. SEEK POWER. STRENGTH. WISDOM. COURAGE. WILL YOU BECOME THIS WORLD’S BRIGHT SUN? OR BECOME THE PALE MOON ILLUMINATING ETERNAL NIGHT? WE ARE WATCHING.”

You feel someone shaking you, gently.

You wake- to see Danzo looking down at you with a concerned look.

“I came back from kitchens to find you slumped over on the bed- you were muttering and shaking- are you alright?”

2. I… don’t know.

>>
>>48069157
Of course. This isn't that kind of quest.

>>48069158
You aren't getting a behelit, anon. Sorry.
>>
>>48069185

B-B-But I wanna sacrifice all of our friends for power and glory...
>>
>>48069202
Then go run a Berserk quest. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in it. Wargle and myself included.

>>48069185
Oh thank ninja Jesus!

>>48069124
We'll Jashin is out there... Maybe Tsuki works the other angle, create war so blood might flow... Is Jashin an old one?

>>48069228
Not that anon but running a Berserk quest would be hard as shit

If you do it post Eclipse you run into the problem of how are you going to fight any apostles without being Guts
>>
Can Edo Tensei zombies be used as undead chakra batteries to power an army of death-machines?

>>48069202
Don't worry, we can still sacrifice our humanity to transcend mortality and become a dark god!

>>48069263
Yeah, that sounds hard. A HxH quest would be way easier.
>>
>>48069263
Golden Age. You fight with giant fuck off canons anon. Fuck getting close to an Apostle.
>>
>>48069325
Ya but if you do Golden age your going to hit Eclipse since its fated to happen and then if your part of the hawks thats the end of the quest
>>
>>48069349
Who said it had to be in Midland? Could be done in Chudar just as well. Fuck could even be a bit easier until Griffith shows up to fuck everyone's day up.

“I… am fine. Just a odd dream…” you say, taking Danzo’s hand as he helps you up.

“Do you want to talk about it?” He asks, concern on his face- although someone not familiar with him may not be able to see it.

“No, it’s just a dream, after all. Although, I was looking for you. I have some things I need to talk to you about.” you say, shaking off the vestiges of sleep.

He sighs.

“Very well. Come, we go down into the depths.” he says, and produces the key to the elevator.

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

You and Danzo are sitting across from one another in the ROOT facility training area. He brings you a cup of tea- not Maru’s sweet concoction, but something bitter and vaguely herbal.

“It will wake you up and clear your mind.” he says, while taking a cup for himself.

“Now, you said you had questions. I’ve heard some whispers of trouble in north, and I assume they are related.” he says, holding your gaze.

“So, go ahead.”

1. Who is Orochimaru?
2. Who are you, really, Danzo?
3. Who is Shisui Uchiha? Why do the Uchiha hate you so?
4. What are your goals?

Pick One- the conversation will have branching topics.

The most pressing question-

“Who is Orochimaru?”

Danzo takes a drink of his tea.

“He was once a Shinobi of the Leaf, naturally talented and highly skilled. One of the three Sannin, he was, for many years, the pride of this village. He is also bafflingly intelligent, and is always several steps ahead. He left us shortly before you were born, taking many of his students many colleagues with him.” he says, bereft of emotion.

1. Why did he leave?
2. How well did you know him?
3. You speak highly of a man that seems a monster…

Damn. The timeline is fucked enough that yeah this is as valid as anything, but I was really hoping you had gone later so that he might have been introduced to baby tsuki and we could get "ah, little Tsuki is that you? Its been so long since I last saw you!"

Pretty sure that orichimaru's timeline has both stuff that has him leave the village way before the ninetails attack but then he's helping out danzo with shit a good ways into the fourth taking back over and for all that danzo would be down for working with an s-class missing nin orichimaru doesn't get anything out of that situation when he's no longer needing to get secret resources inside the leaf. Inconsistent as fuck, like a lot of the naruto backstory.
>>
>>48069890
I was more referring to the fact that Oro was canonically in the village til just before the switch from 3rd to 4th Hokages. Which, considering our age, would have been just before our birth in this timeline.

Too damn true about the inconsistencies though.
Damn it Kishimoto! Write more world building and less shounen woo-woo!
>>
>>48069929
Yeah that's what it's "supposed" to be but then if you've got a unified timeline it means that orichimaru wasn't helping out danzo with some of Danzo's worst shit, so it's sometimes a matter of what you want to keep (then again a lot of that wouldn't happen anyway since Danzo got shut down earlier, but Tsuki encountering Orichimaru being a "reunion" would have been fun.)
>>
>>48069929
>>48070021
Oh and also I think Orichimaru leaving early+anko's age implies she's a itachi/kakashi level prodigy, which we uh, don't get much indication of
Might be misremembering exactly what's inconsistent in what way though.

“Danzo. You’re evading the question. No matter his previous accomplishments or loyalties, he’s the one responsible for the troubles in the north. He has an army of literal monsters at his command, seemingly intent on conquering the Land of Rice Fields.” you scold.

He deflates a bit- but only a little.

“If he has become a threat to the Leaf- then he must be destroyed.” he says with a bit of finality.

“What did he do, Danzo? Why did he leave?” you push further.
“He was chased out by the Fourth and Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third. He had been performing experiments on the nature of chakra implementation and manipulation, along with preliminary research into functional immortality. When he ran out of test subjects he had captured during the 3rd World War, he began to take shinobi. This eventually led Minato and Sarutobi right to him- although he seemed to know his time was short. By the time they had figured it out, he had already moved his team of researchers and doctors out of Konoha, probably to one of his secret hideouts.” he admits.

Human experimentation. On Konoha shinobi, no less.

And now, he seems able to create monsters.

1. What was your relationship to him?
2. Did he work with my father at all?
3. He managed to escape from two kage?
4. Why would he be trying to conquer a shinobi country?

Timelines aren't Kishimoto's strongpoint. It's the one thing n the manga which is just totally broken with no possible alternate interpretation. Depending on how you look at things Itachi is either 50 or -5, and Sasuke is his older brother.

These. After this lets say enough remenising lets build a better future, get a little training down.

Also I had an idea folks....it'd take a long time but could be insanly OP. we work on a technique to turn our own body into our Blue Flamed Chakra, we can scatter and reform.

The principles are simple, its used in that hiding in water/stone technique all we are doing is channeling into our own natural element.

“I was at the council meeting today, Danzo. Fugaku Uchiha seems convinced that you two were still connected- not that I believe that. He’s a paranoid old man. But obviously you were connected at one point, which begs the question- did he work with my father at all?” you say, holding eye contact with Danzo.

“Damn Uchiha. The whole lot of them are nothing but problems-” he starts.

He sighs.

“Don’t mind me. Old grudges die hard. Yes, Orochimaru worked under me in ROOT, for a time. We were acquainted, and he did use our bases and resources. At no point did I ever deem him or his experiments truly dangerous to the leaf- although I hadn’t been aware he had been taking leaf shinobi, not until after he was gone.”

“As for your Father- well, please do not take this the wrong way, Tsuki-dono. The two men are very similar. Driven, massively intelligent geniuses in their respective fields. Yoru is probably one of the few men Orochimaru actually respected. They did have a working business relationship, and both do share an infectious charisma. The only true difference is that Orochimaru seemingly lacks empathy- he places little to no value in human life. As far as I am aware, your father has not had contact with Yoru since he left.” Danzo finishes.

1. Accept his assessment.

“You’re probably right. There is saying that the line between madness and genius is thin indeed. Although it still pains me to admit Father could be similar to that man.” you say.

“All men have the capability to become monsters, Tsuki-dono. Always remember that.” Danzo responds, taking another drink of his tea.

“So, how about my mother? She know Orochimaru?” you inquire.

“As much as expected. Your mother met and interacted with most people your father did. The two were inseparable.”

Makes sense.

“I have another concern- I ran into a man in a black cloak with red clouds on it while on this last mission- he was praising some being named “Jashin”. When I explained this to the council, the Fourth was gravely concerned. Know anything about them?” you ask, shuddering as you remember the man.

Danzo sets down his tea.

“Akatsuki. A group of high profile missing-nin, working together as a sort of mercenary company. All members seem to be S-Class missing Shinobi, although not all members are currently known.” he says, walking over to a bookshelf. He pulls out a small book and begins to flip through it.”

A Bingo Book?

“Not many of their members are known, as the leader of the organization keeps a low profile, but….” he says, flipping even further into the book.

“Sasori of the Red Sand.”
“Kisame Hoshigaki, formerly one of the Seven Swordsman of the Mist.”
“Kakuzu, formerly of Takigakure.”
“Deidara, formerly of Iwagakure.”
“Hidan, formerly of Yugakure.”

“If they are aligned with Orochimaru in some fashion he may also be among their number….” he finishes.

“Kakuzu. The man I ran into kept saying that name. So he definitely is part of Akatsuki then…” you respond, thinking back.

“As for Jashin- it’s some odd religion that started gaining a following among the Shinobi countries over the last two decades- it’s god, “Lord Jashin” only honors and respects blood sacrifice and combat. Many of it’s followers are said to have inhuman stamina, although I couldn’t tell you much more than that.” he says, closing the bingo book.

A blood god, huh? Creepy. Most shinobi didn’t follow an organized religion, although temples dedicated to nature and the spirits were common. He definitely seemed quite fanatical in his following, too.

“Those were my questions, Danzo. You’ve been most enlightening, as always. I’d like to resume my release training soon, as well.” you announce.

“Very well, Tsuki-dono. Just let me know when you wish to resume.” he says, with a sigh of relief.

At this point you’re a bit tired, and have some new information to mull over- you and Danzo head upstairs, after which you bid him goodnight.

Might as well sleep in your own bed while you have the chance. You have to meet Itachi-sensei and the girls tomorrow, as well…..

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

You wake from a deep, thankfully dreamless, sleep. You’re surrounded by the safety of your large blankets and pillows- home. Better than some Inn, or a tent.

Stretching, you hop out of bed and get dressed. You’re not in a hurry, but it’s best not to sleep in too late- Maru will scold you, and you might miss out on breakfast!

You find a clean spare uniform and change into it- nothing much, but it serves it’s purpose.

It seems Father is hard at work- his door shut tight. Best to leave him be- he’ll come out for food eventually.

Going downstairs, you find a small spread laid out for you- at least, small by Maru’s standard.

Her voice rings out behind you- “Danzo said you’d be heading out for a meeting, so I opted to keep it light. Besides, you’ve been eating like a bird lately. No need to over prepare.”

Not as much scolding as you figured. Maru always gets mad at you when you don’t eat enough. Says it doesn’t suit ladies to be skin and bones- although wouldn’t say you’re that skinny.

You spend some time eating with Maru, and head out into the village proper. Judging by the sun, you have some time before the meeting starts, although you could always head there early.

You….

1. Head to the meeting early

You decide to just head to the site of the meeting- you want to see the expanded park, and maybe just have a moment to yourself.

You head to the memorial park- and to your surprise the expansion is quite sizable. Looks like the Fourth kept his word….

It looks like the memorial park has increased by about a third of it’s original size- and you see, in the center of the expansion, a metal likeness of Ebisu-sensei standing at attention. At the bottom is inscribed a simple message: For Ebisu. Dedicated Friend, Sensei, and Shinobi. Rest well.

Your heart grow heavy again- Ebisu-sensei. You cannot help but hope he’s watching you from the afterlife, and that he’ll be proud of the headway the three of you are making.

“Oh, I didn’t expect anyone else to be here.” a voice says from behind you.

You turn and see a man you don’t recognize- a jonin, by his uniform. He seems to be keeping a senbon in his mouth- an odd habit.

“Oh, you’re Tsuki Norihime, right? Nice to meet you. I’m Genma. Ebisu, Guy and I were all part of the same team of genin. I came to bring him these-” you look down and see a bouquet of flowers in his hand.

“He’d probably chastise me for wasting money on him, but he was a friend. I was happy to see his students honor him so.”

You…

1. Apologize
2. Introduce yourself normally.

“You’d be correct. Nice to meet you, Genma. Though I have to admit- Ebisu-sensei would probably appreciate the gesture, making him look good in front of his impressionable young students.” you say with a smile.

Genma laughs.

“You’ve got that right. I suppose if we were both being honest with ourselves, I should bring him a copy of Master Jiraiya’s new book, right? Though I suppose I can’t exactly leave those just laying about…

You DO remember saying Ebisu-sensei was a bit a pervert. Oh well, you aren’t going to disrespect your deceased sensei.

“You look like you’re doing pretty alright, considering. From what I’ve overheard, you three are performing very well. Ebisu is very proud of all of you, I’m sure. Just keep working hard and honor his memory, alright?” Genma says with a smile on his face.

“Oh, and if you really want to make him proud, you three should enter the next chunin exams. He’d love knowing his beloved students had made such an accomplishment as winning on the first try. I’ve been told I’m probably going to assist with proctoring this time, so let me know if you need anything, yeah? Ebisu didn’t have many friends, but we should stick together, to honor his memory.” he says, looking at the statue of his departed friend.

He lays down the flowers, and heads off back toward the village.

“I’m serious, you know. Just let the Hokage know!” he shouts, waving as he departs.

After he leaves, you’re left alone with the monument for a while. You decide Genma’s suggestion might not be a bad one- you’re sure your team could take out those lesser teams in the exams!

Might as well bring it up to the others, once they arrive.
>>
Eventually, the rest of your team arrives- Itachi-sensei first, with Hinata shortly afterward. Nori is unsurprisingly last, but she isn’t late, at least.

“Ok, you three. Thanks for coming- I just wanted to give you a heads up on what the Fourth has me doing.” Itachi says, addressing the group.

“Dad’s sending you north, to check on that Orochimaru guy, right?” Nori says, still rubbing the sleep from her eyes.

“Among other things. We’re to observe the situation closely and determine what exactly is going on. Don’t worry- we aren’t meant to engage. It will be perfectly safe.” he responds, trying to ease any worry in the group.

Perfectly safe… right.

“Now, I’m going to be gone for a while, so I won’t be able to take you out on missions myself- although the Fourth gave you to take on D-rank missions without me, if you want. They’ll be ones he screens first, so don’t be too disappointed…” he explains.

Nori groans.

“More dog chasing? Feh. I thought we were passed that, ya know? Although I guess it cannot be helped.”

“I don’t mind,” Hinata pipes up. “It will be nice to have a little relaxation time, and we can focus on our training, as well.”

While everyone is talking, you figure now is as good of a time as any….

“Well, I had an idea.” you say, getting everyone’s attention.

“We should enter the chunin exams. They’ll be coming up in a few months- and if we get serious about our training, I think we’ll win!” you say emphatically.

Nori agrees right out of the gate.

“Badass. I need to show that brother of mine he isn’t gonna get ahead of me!”

Hinata looks conflicted, but ultimately agrees.

“Well, If we train hard… I think you may be right.”

Itachi just chuckles.

“Ambitious as always. I wouldn’t expect anything less from you three. Very well- before I leave, I’ll pull some strings and see if I can’t get you a jonin to help with additional training. I won’t be gone too long, I promise. I want to see just how much you can grow while I’m gone.” he says, smiling.

“Excellent.” you say, filled with energy.

It seems these next few months will be a bit more exciting than you initially thought….

Intelligence 3.0 (+0.5 from Norihime Genius)
Strength 1.0
Speed 2.0
Stamina 2.5
Hand seals 2.5
Total: 18

Stellar Release Mastery Level: 1.5/5

Taijutsu, Strength, Speed, Stamina, and Stellar release need to shored up imo

I'm fairly certain the training for swords and training tai is conducive to each other.
>>
>>48071973
>I'm really against raising it above 2.5 at the most because that is neglecting the things we are actually good at.

I see where you're coming from, and I do agree that upping our strengths is great, but I also don't really like just focusing on a few stats and ignoring the rest.

>>48071979

Strength is our hardest stat to upgrade.

>>48071979
What we need to focus on is Nin, Hand seals, and speed. We can get tai up to 2.5 but after that fuck it its not going to be a big part of Tsuki's fighting style
>>
>>48072000
Trips speak the truth.
>>
>>48071979
Personally, I don't think we need to beef up our strength that much. We could do scratch damage and finish off our enemies with our release and ninjutsu.

"Kenjutsu proficiency is a trait you can earn,that allows you to use the taijutsu score to control kenjutsu."

I just got this in a Pm from Wargle on Twitter

Not really relevant but I may as well post it somewhere, here's Tsuki annoyed someone is perving on her in the springs.

Post a link.

If that is the case then fuck Kenjutsu.

"Yes all tai training, swords included, will increase the score."

I asked him about training with tenten and this was the answer

Gonna need a pic or link there pal.
>>
>>48072030
Honestly we don't even have to be good if were just using the kibas their main benefit is boosting lightning jutsus and cutting down on the chakra costs since were doing a ninjutsu build we could just use them as power ups from afar

Taijutsu encompasses all martial arts, of which Kenjutsu is one of. Once you have the Kenjutsu proficiency trait, Your Taijutsu score will translate directly into a "Kenjutsu" score.

Nothing else really makes sense.

Time to pack it up.

People wanted to git gud with swords. Which go off our worst stats.

I think these are the ones we need to master first.

>>48072099

Which we should buff up, so we don't stay shit at close range.

>>48072107

Don't forget Ninjutsu.
>>
>>48072107
Nin needs to be up there
>>
>>48072113
>Which we should buff up, so we don't stay shit at close range.

Exactly we only need to get good enough at Tai as to not be horrendously shit at it. 2.5-30 is fine for this stage atm, the other skills take priority
>>
>>48072122

2.0 or 2.5, I'd say.

Strength at 2.0 or so, since it's our hardest stat to level up.

Focus on Speed, if we have to pick from Speed/Stamina/Strength.
>>
>>48072134
2.0 is too low. That's still really abysmal. I'm not saying we need to be experts, but it would be nice not to be complete ass at it.
>>
>>48072144
>That's still really abysmal.

Not really. It's not great, but it's not abysmal.

5

Realistically 2.5 since were gonna want to train up other stats

>>48072158

2.0 or 2.5.
>>
>>48072157
don't sugar coat it anon, that's not even good
>>
>>48072181
2.0 is mediocre. Which is alright for out stage. Later on 2.0 is terrible, but we aren't there yet.
>>
>>48072181

It's decent. Not abysmal in any fashion.
>>
>>48072192
This is a fair point. Even 0.5 to each of our physical stats makes us a monster-tier genin by canon standards, and assuming we get to the finals we'll have another month of intensive training to adjust a few scores higher.
>>
>>48072748
Have an easy reference image for comparison: the average for a named Konoha genin at this point in the story is in red, according to the first Databook. Tsuki's Ninjusu, Genjusu, and Intelligence are solid even compared to prodigies like Sasuke and Neji, and for having dumped Strength she's still stronger than Sakura and Ino already.

0.5 - 1.0 each in Taijutsu, Strength, and Speed should carry us through to the finals easy, assuming we don't end up getting killed by Gaara. Anything else prior to that point is icing.

Derp. Realized what I did AS it was posting.
>>
>>48073227
Thanks for the chart.

>>48072748
+0.5 to each stat. I can get behind this. As suggested in previous threads I think both Nori & Hinata provide good opportunities to train up our weak stats. Plus we gotta work on upping team-strategy, the Forest of Death ain't gonna be a cakewalk.

>>48073206
>assuming we don't end up getting killed by Gaara
this brings up an important point: what's The Land of Fire's relationship with it's neighbours? more specifically; will the chuunin exams have participants from as diverse villages as in canon?
Hopefully Wargle answers these questions, and on that note: thanks for running m8! I enjoy reading these threads, even if I've yet to arrive on time (the woes of living in a UTC+2 timezone).
>>
>>48073712
Anyone can help us with our Taijutsu, but yeah. I can get behind +0.5 to each of our stats with a focus on any of our 4 strengths.
>>
>>48073712
Well, we had a Snow ninja in the last round if that's anything to go by. So Konoha's allies like Grass are probably a sure bet.

Also UTC here, I feel your pain. I usually show up JUST as things end.

>>48073777
And what I tried to say is that compared to our cohort our "strengths" are already pretty obscene for a genin, particularly given the fact that we have no genuine "weaknesses". That 1.0 in Strength is the closest Tsuki gets to having a weakness, and it's still better than what half the other girls her age have to work with.

>* Not every night but some nights we will do stuff with dad, it would likely take three months of such light contact as a form of training to see any gains

>Bring on the Exam

By the end of this montage we should have stats kinda like this...

Ninjutsu 3.0
Taijutsu 2.5 [+1]
Genjutsu 2.5
Intelligence 3.5 (+0.5 from Norihime Genius)
Strength 2.0 [+1]
Speed 3.0 [+1]
Stamina 3.0 [+0.5]
Hand seals 3.0 [+0.5]
New Total: 22.5

Along with any techniques we get along the way.

..........
Ill post this next thread too
..........
>>
>>48074792
I doubt we will get that huge of gains in the time. Getting our stats that high before time skip is very unlikely.
>>
>>48073777
>nice trips
+0.5 to each of our weaknesses.
+1.0 to each of our strengths.
3 months will give us enough time to accomplish this. Such a feat, however, would require dedication equivalent to that of Might Guy himself!I think it's time the princess tests her mettle.
>Anyone can help us with our Taijutsu
Would other shinobi who also intend to take the exam help out a potential competitor? (Tenten probably would)

>>48074792
>that schedule
far too general/vague not ambitious enough imho I'll post my counter-proposal in just a bit.
>>
>>48074792

>Month 1
Week 1: Standard Missions [Build up teamwork and experience]
Week 2: Taijutsu Training [Aquire Swordsmanship]
Week 3: Standard Missions [Build up teamwork and experience]
Week 4: Stellar Release Training [Focus on Internalizing Stellar Chakra]

>Month 2
Week 1: Taijutsu Training [Sword training and speed focused]
Week 2: Stellar Release Training [Hopefully by this point Stellar Shadow Clone]
Week 3: Standard Missions [Build up teamwork and experience]
Week 4: Taijutsu Training [Generic Fighting training and strength focused]

>Month 3
Week 1: Unique Sensei Training: See who is available for aid, but focus on learning more Techniques
Week 2: Unique Sensei Training: See who is available for aid, but focus on learning more Techniques
Week 3: Unique Sensei Training: See who is available for aid, Focus on Stats
Week 4: Unique Sensei Training: See who is available for aid, Focus on Stats

Thats it in more detail. I guess the last month is variable because we don't know who we can get.
>>
>>48075093
>>48074887
Looking at that the stats may work out better than planed but when Wargle runs again we shall truly see
>>
>>48074792
>Flexible-General daily routine (which presupposes we get a healthy 8-hours of sleep everyday; though considering the setting I'm sure we could find ways of shaving a couple hours off w/o incurring penalties)
1. Wake-up, do morning shadow-clone meditation (just 15 minutes is enough)
2. Brisk breakfast: taking the opportunity to get some social in with whoever's in the dining hall (max. 30 minutes)
3. Meet up with Nori & Hinata (either somewhere convenient for all 3, or in front of Ebisu's memorial -- taking ~15 minutes)
4. Do daily D-rank mission [for the first month, afterwards it'll become dedicated team-training time] (probably won't take more than 4 hours, depending on the mission ofc -- also the missions provide a great opportunity to bond as a team)
5. Taijutsu training with Tenten/whoever-is-willing-to-teach-us (1.5 hours)
6. Recuperative meditaiton: this basically entails clearing our mind, and letting the chakra flow as it will (30 minutes)
7. Practise hand seals for the sake of finer-detail chakra manipulation (30 minutes)
8. Have large late-lunch (1 hour)
9. Get some quality time in with Yoru(assisting in design-&-engineering work), or Danzo(learning ninja secrets/history/philosophy). (1 hour)
10. Training with Danzo (2 hours)
11. Solo-training (1.5 hours)
12. Bathe & self-message, get the day's stress out (1 hour)
13. Chill out, do something specifically pleasure/fun oriented. Our daily ninja shore-leave. (2 hours)
It's not perfect I know: I ain't got a precise map of Konoha to work with so travel time's a bit wonky, and we can, of course, re-arrange the schedule to our desires. But I think it gives a good idea of what I would consider to be a montage worthy (read: EXTREME) training regime.

>>48075093
I think your suggestion provides a great model for what our general goals for each week should be; while mine covers day-to-day minutiae.
>>
>>48075433
I concur. when the next thread begins if you have not posted both of these together then I shall. Excellent set up.
>>
>>48074792
>seriously expecting a 22.5 by the time we walk into the exams
Unless everyone else in the setting gets a massive boost that's patently absurd. Sasuke only went in with an 18.5 or so going by the databooks. Neji's total was only 21, and he was a goddamn juggernaut compared to anyone without eyehax or a tailed beast.
>>
>>48075528
T-thanks senpai~!
Wargle'll most likely have us do rolls for how effective and efficient our training proves.
Thankfully the combined general-precision of these two (>>48075093 & >>48075433) mandates that Tsuki (as well as Nori & Hinata) improves overall. It's foolproof! Ohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohoho~! Truly befitting a lady of the Norihime clan, ohohohoho~!

>>48075633
anon, we have eyehax and bijuu-chakra on our team to train with. we also have Danzo as a personal trainer. Tsuki, as a character, has yet to kick things into OVERDRIVE yet so I reckon we could achieve 22.5 (and that's conservative). Plus the time-line differs so everyone's power-level is slightly different to canon.
Granted, flying this high will come with it's costs. Orochimaru will almost certainly have eyes and ears stationed in Konoha to monitor the exams, and -- with us blissfully unaware of this -- when we come ohohoho-nauting through the exams we'll definitely pop-up, and stick to, his radar (which'll mean having to stay on-guard against potential body-stealing snekhax).
