This is Boruto Quest, a quest set in the universe of Naruto. It is during the generation of Naruto's son after everyone has graduated from their Genin exam. I haven't kept up with the series beyond the end of the original one, so this one is intended to recapture the feel of that time of Naruto. I will not be incorporating the main show or the Boruto movie's plot into the quest, although some recognizable characters will be present. You play as a 12 year old Chunin named Takeshi. You have been assigned a Jounin squad leader named Hanto, and your two squadmates are Kichiro, a young delinquent, and Ai, a strange social outcast of a girl. You are of average skill in most aspects, although your sharp intelligence, and your jack of trades skill set have brought you far. You have just recently graduated to a Chunin after winning the final tournament. You've been regularly completing missions as a Chunin, and making progress in training. At the moment your team mate Ai is showing you a jutsu.

You push Ai's foot off of your head with one arm, throwing her off balance briefly. Despite your throbbing leg, you make it to two feet and square up across from her as she takes her own stance. At once, you start to imagine the possibilities of the Roof Tile Shuriken jutsu. Ai has already demonstrated to you that she can attack not only from the front, but from any angle. The attack is largely silent, and can also be used on the move. It seems that the primary limitation of the technique is the weight of the projectiles. They hurt, but without a lucky strike they would have a hard time injuring anyone.

She crouches slightly, and you tense your body in preparation of a reaction. The more experience you rack up, the more you can see the tell tale signs of movement before it occurs. Her shoulder twitches, and sure enough she flings a single kunai directly towards you.

You could attempt to block it, dodge, or even attempt a counter.

>A. Block it with your own kunai.
>B. Dodge by leaping forward and over it.
>C. Dodge by weaving your body to the side.
>D. Attempt to catch it and throw it back.

catch and hold it, if the whole point of the jutsu is making shit fly at a target, trying to redirect or deflect the projectile just means they'll fly back at us as soon as their out of our control.

>>575362
Whats your impression on /qst/ mini?
>>
>>575432
this is the first thread I've made here, ID's are good to prevent samefagging and longer posting limits is good. I don't know anything else yet
>>
>>575439
Well glad you like it
I know some of us are taking the switch pretty hard
>>
>>575439
couple things that may be of use then:
threads live forever so it's easy to just use the same thread if you plan run twice within a 3-4 day period.
the bump limit is 750.
there's also a bunch of extra formatting options that only the thread op can use such as bold text, colored text and stuff like that.

You drop your hips and leap up with all the might in your legs, twinges of pain shooting through your body again. Truthfully you're not in good condition to be pushing yourself like this. As you jump, you tuck your legs in close to your body and the kunai flies past where you once where. Traveling in an arc, you flip once and come down at Ai with a diving kick. She hops back shortly, forming handsigns. "Roof Tile Shuriken Jutsu!" she says.

Freezing, you try to detect any auditory clues to where the attack could be coming from. There's a rustling of bushes, and stones race towards you from the left. Instinctively, you hop back and the stones soar past your vision. Ai is already forming the handsigns for the jutsu again once the stones cross. This time, an attack from directly behind you.

>A. Jump directly up, and throw a handful of shuriken. Combine her attack and your own.
>B. Fall prone, and let her attack fly at her.
>C. Jump to the side and use the Water Bullet jutsu in rapid succession and try to push her back.

To be honest i don't remember what they say, to be honest i always loved /qst/
There is also a Suptg /qst/ archive
>>
>>575483
>>C. Jump to the side and use the Water Bullet jutsu in rapid succession and try to push her back.
>>
>>575490
the tg and qst archives are linked together so that if someone searches a tag it pull up stuff from both archives, thus if somone searches boruto quest as a tag they'll get the archived threads from both boards in sequential order.

>B. Fall prone, and let her attack fly at her.
We have a damaged leg we cant be jumping around like this

Again, you crouch down and jump up. This time you're going directly upwards, instead of leaping in to attack. Slinging several shuriken her way, you create a vertical pincer attack. It seems as if she has no chance of dodging except by moving to the side.

Of course, you'd forgotten about her most useful technique. "Tanketsu!"

She flips forward, closing her arms tightly around her chest. She straightens herself stiff as a board, and starts to rotate her whole body at an incredible speed. Your jaw drops as she whirls through the storm of blades and stones, before making a stiff landing. She implants her fist into the dirt as she comes down for balance, and looks up at you with blank white eyes.

"W-wait a second! Are we fighting for real or are you teaching me??"

She grins slightly, and for a moment you're not sure if she knows the difference. Whatever teaching style Kakashi has must be brutal.

Apparently she's taking it a step farther than you had originally thought you were going to go. She's starting to bring out her more powerful techniques in addition to the Roof Tile Shuriken Jutsu.

How do you respond to this challenge?

>A. Pepper her with a mix of senbon with bells and without bells. Keep on the move.
>B. Use the Haze Clone jutsu, and try to overwhelm her. The Tanketsu doesn't see chakra like the Sharingan.

"Haze Clone Jutsu!"

Thankfully, you have a decent counter to this technique of hers. Really, you could call yourself a bit of a feinting specialist. It's time to demonstrate how far you've come since becoming a Chunin. While you may not have the flashy moves of others, strategy and technique can surmount any obstacle.

Dozens of smiling faces start to fill the clearing, and run around Ai in a clockwise fashion. Some cross through the circle frequently, keeping her on her guard. As you run with them, you look for any possible openings in her guard. Any sort of frontal attack is just going to get shot down by the Tanketsu, so you decide to start by flinging a senbon with a bell attached to her back.

Sure enough, she pivots on one foot and snatches the senbon out of the air. She looks down and furrows her brow, noticing the bell. She's probably already figured out your plan.

Of course, that doesn't mean she can do anything to stop it for the moment. You start to sling out mixes of senbon with bells and without bells. You pick your shots carefully. A silent senbon from the front, first. She sees it and catches it, but you're already behind her to throw one with a bell.

Again, she pivots and catches. By attacking from behind, you're ensuring that she can't take the time to simply dash out of the circle. If she chooses not to follow your clockwise movements she leaves her back open.

You throw a handful of senbon with bells and without at her side this time. She pivots around to anticipate a silent attack from behind, but the auditory reaction of the bells throws her off guard. Despite having highly advanced vision, there are always other senses to mess with. She shuffles to the side but fails to dodge all of the senbon, two striking her forearms.

Keeping up this pace would be easy. If you didn't know your friend had more tricks, you'd be confident in wearing her down like this forever.

But you know that can't happen. What do you do?

>A. Keep it up, and try to react to whatever she does.
>B. Use the False Sound Jutsu to begin to create the illusion of ringing bells.
>C. Use Shunshin to blindside her with a dashing strike.

Ai clasps her hands together, and uses the Four Witches Jutsu. She's gotten adept at bringing it out much faster. The back of her shirt is ripped apart as her flesh and bone warps to create a fresh pair of slender white arms. She starts to go through a couple of handsigns with her back hands, at the same time that you're using the False Sound Jutsu.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcshz4lBJPQ

Illusory bells ring across the forest in her mind. You pepper in shots from senbon with bells and without, keeping her on her toes as you watch your ally dodge all attacks with extreme skill. You notice that to counteract your various feints, she's attempting to dodge everything she can sense. Her speed is in a class high above your own. She kicks into a higher physical gear, pushing her body to it's limits as the eyes darting around in her head scan everything. She turns to the sound of a bell, and finds no attack waiting for her. Again the bells ring, but this time it's actually an attack. Needles slip past her face and body, centimeters away from finding their mark. Every now and then one of your shots sticks, though it's impossible to hit a vital point at this speed.

As you're looking at Ai, suddenly your legs are swept out from underneath you. Rocks strike at your knees and shins in a swarm, a broad blast of them hitting your circle of clones. You tumble to the ground and roll up to your feet, quickly retreating back into the clones.

She's pushing you out of the circle with the Roof Tile Jutsu. While she can't injure you for certain, or predict all your movements, a cheap distraction like this limits your freedom. Now you're both at a disadvantage, whoever slips up first gets certain defeat.

Pushing off with your back foot, you use Shunshin to make a surprise attack. At your max speed, a right straight would be pretty devastating. You charge in like an arrow, using the ringing of bells and having your clones swarm her to cover your movements and sounds.

The disorientating attack is nearly too much for her, as Ai panics and leaps directly into the air. She fires off a lightning ball Jutsu directly downward, exploding and briefly wiping out all your clones. You leap back into safety. You're revealed for a moment, before they reform.

She lands, and you notice small droplets of blood forming at the corner of her eyes. She exhales slowly. "Okay, I think that's good. We're both starting to get tired."

Sure enough, your bum leg is trembling fiercely. You disperse your clones. "Jeez..Are you gonna show me the handsigns or is that all?"

She grins. "What, you couldn't copy them just by looking?"
>>
>>576025


With a smile, you laugh. "Maybe if you teach me that Tanketsu move."

She starts to walk away. "It's not my move to give away. But.."

As she reaches her door, she spins around. "These are the handsigns!"

She shows you the brief series slowly, and you mentally jot down each one. You smile, and give her a thumbs up. "Thanks! Next time we spar I'll use it on you."

"Okay, but next time you have to teach me a jutsu as well."

You nod. "Deal."

Ai shuts her door without saying goodbye. You don't think she was being rude, just another one of her quirks.

You're fairly exhausted now. Where do you want to go?

We can't really use med jutsus in fights anons, we need to get stronger so we don't keep getting our ass kicked
>>
>>576106
But anon we can
Things like chakra scalpel exist
There's also the fact that it provides great utility
Though,I agree we shouldn't focus it to hard in the future
>>
>>576137
We learned Charka scalpel what we need to do is training it which we should have done when we fought Ai
>>
>>576106
>>576137
There's some applications, but it's mostly the higher tier stuff. Medical offensive moves can be devastating. See Orochimaru, Kabuto, Tsunade, Sakura, and a bunch of misc villains

But those are all ridiculously skilled people with years of experience under their belt.
>>
>>576106
I just wanna talk to Sadara
Maybe get Sakura to hell us for being so kind to her daughter
And while i do agree we need to get more offensively swole knowing support skills is kinda our thing
>>
>>576145
>Sakura
She really didn't beat thaat many people she was mostly the white mage for Shippuden. And Orochimaru was a ninjutsu specialist who also studied medical, but he didn't really use it to fight

>>576158
Yes and right now we know how to heal people, it would be smarter to put that time into Genjutsu training
>>
>>576145
Yea kabuto and orochimaru were pretty bullshit
But with how anons act and how long term goals like usually end,were probably never going to reach that level
>>
Given Genjutsu is only 2.5 right now, I'd say it needs a boost.
>>
>>576164
Fine. Kabuto.
>>
>>576158
Right now we have
>pretty high intelligence
>really good stun
>good with genjustu
>slowly branching out in medical
We'd be a really annoying bitch of a fight for most ninja's and with a good enough teacher we can become a monster

You make your way through the city, limping slightly. The scents of food from the market waft into your face, and your stomach growls. The people around town are smiling and happy, the streets largely clean and protected. It fills your heart with warmth to have the opportunity to live in such a great place.

Seeing as there's a little daylight left to burn, you may as well go see Sarada. It's possible she could give you some pointers, or maybe even patch up your leg a bit. You think you can feel a bit of dampness in your pant leg.

You rap on her door lightly. Several seconds later, it cracks open slightly to reveal a glaring eye behind a pair of glasses. She doesn't say anything for several seconds. "What do you want?"

>A. Can I have something to eat?

Wow, that's really low for someone who uses it so often! We need to buff that. All sorts of crazy shit at the upper levels. At Orochimaru's level even simple things like blinding someone become so hard to break not even the Hokage could do it.

Oh yeah, I forgot he did that. Didn't Deidara still get fooled by sasuke's before his death though? I remember him having this but not it being all that effective
>>
I hope that when we go to get our summon snek takes over and gets us out of nowhere just to see salad shouting "he's orochimaru!" while nobody listens
>>
>>576268
No, it worked. He just has to consciously use it, so he got fooled initially then checked to make sure. He then feigned ignorance to trap Sasuke and blow him up. Sasuke had to electrocute the shit out of himself to not die too.

You grin. "Do you wanna hang out??"

She starts to shut the door, but you manage to slip the toe of your sandal in. She's crunching it pretty hard, but you grit your teeth and bear it to say what you have to say. "Wait! Could you gimme some help? I uh, my leg's hurt. Plus I needed some pointers on the Chakra Scalpel, if you wouldn't mind.

She tilts her nose up. "Hmph. What am I supposed to get out of all of this? Do you intend to raid my kitchen, too?"

Short of just saying that you'll pay for, you're not sure what you could really offer. "Well, it could be some decent practice to heal up my leg." She opens the door back up, and leans on the frame while crossing her arms. "Hmph. I get plenty of practice, thank you. What happened, anyways?"

You recall the tale of your last mission. A murder investigation leading to the uncovering of cultists, harboring a tailed beast within the Cloud's borders. As you say this, you momentarily wonder what would have happened if the monster had been unleashed here in your home town. Quickly you push the thought from your mind, and focus on the conversation at hand. The blood has drained from Sarada's face as you finish your story. She's standing slightly slumped.

She chuckles a little, and speaks in a low droning voice. "What an exciting life you lead. I've been stuck on C rank duties ever since our mission together. Something about working on team work."

You can imagine how that might be a problem with her squad. "Uh, if that doesn't sound like a fair deal, I could always buy you dinner or something."

Her color drained face fills back up to a bright red. You're not sure if she's embarrassed or angry. "Yeah, no. But since you've had such a rough time lately, I guess it wouldn't hurt to touch up your leg."

"Thanks!" you say enthusiastically, somewhat thankful that your wallet is safe.

----

That's all for tonight folks. I'll be continuing tomorrow night, sometime in the afternoon. I'll stick around for some questions.

Also have one of my own. Any newcomers here from qst who have not read this quest before?

Not really. You're famous as the star Genin of your generation, but with time that'll fade. New class champions will be showing up in the next few months as another Chunin Exam starts. They're bi-annually done.
>>
Well thats underwhelming
Can you give any insight on who we should visit next
Any social links about to get a rank up
>>
>>576522
Not really. People who you hang out with more will get to know you better, and vice versa. Just whoever your personal preference is for going to see.

I usually mention other people as an option if there's something to be gained from seeing them right away. But you can write in any name.

It's been a while, can you update us on the waifu options and their current opinion of us?
>>
>>576534
>>576545
And opinions of people in general.
>>
>>576534
I personally would like to see the opinion our friends and rivals have on us
>>
>>576545
Most girls don't feel too strongly about you. All in all you bring largely neutral reactions.

In terms of girls who you are on the best terms with, it probably goes like this

Ai, Mari, Himawari, Sarada, Kayo.

In general, there's a consensus among the leaf that you're a straight shooter with a strong heart, a strong mind, and a developing skill set. You're a little more respected than your average Chunin for being so young and level headed.

>>576610
Friends haven't really changed much. Shikamaru and Kichiro are your biggest bros. Rivals, you have out the wazoo. Lots of people see you as a threat or challenge
>>

>>
>>576754

Ah, no you're not on there then. You've shown nothing but faith in your country.
>>
>>576812
I don't know mini we took down a Jinchuruki and Boruto, son of the strongest ninja alive, I feel like the other nations would be taking note of us as a potential risk
>>
>>576812
There also other countries.

>>576812
Other countries have bingo books, and if we're strong enough we'd get listed.

You're still only mid level, on the lower end of that too. You didn't beat either of them so much as have the right tools for the job.

Sure if you would have brute forced it everyone would have immediately written your name down.

You may be a rookie king, but you're still just a rookie. Boruto and Sarada have reputation advantage over you for being rookie nukes. To everyone at the tournament, you didn't really display potential.

Not that you didn't display potential, but rather, it just didn't really seem like it in comparison.

To those that could understand your techniques, they'd be able to stop you trivially. To the people who didn't understand what you were doing, they underestimated you as a threat.

Basically your accomplishments are all being underplayed due to a combination of the fantastical environment and ignorance of the masses.
>>
>>577495
We are the Crownless King
The Low Teir God
In the end its not about being popular or powerful
its about knowing in our heart of hearts if we tried we could kill any of our overpowered friends batman style
>>
>>577495
So noone really took note of the tactical acumen needed to actually maneuver around those rookie nukes using nothing but some more basic techniques?
>>
>>577579
Like he said it was really nothing too impressive.
We have a big bag of tricks that work on the unaware but to a seasoned vet would be child's play to deal with.
If Boruto used his head or if Sarada fought us at all we would have been over powered.
>>
>>577533
>>577579
>>577600
I'd say that you're really just an incomplete fighter. One day you'll have a full arsenal.
>>
>>577600
Sarada is pretty much our hard counter, but really when our foes took us seriously off the bat we had issues. Remember iron girl puppeteer? She by all rights had us beat. Mari would have too if not for her not taking us seriously. Which is why Boruto lost too.
>>
>>577908
What are our potential options to upgrade ourself?
I remember our brother having this Jet Lee Iron Fist style but i don't think hand to hand mixes with our style well.

>>577909
Lord of the Shit Kids anon

>>
>>577909
I think the issue in those fights were that they did take us seriously, but they didnt go full nuclear right away. in most fights you dont go immediately for the nuclear option (especially in non lethal fights like these tournaments) until you've already tied most other things.

They were building up to it, but the second it got just a bit too tilted in their favor we busted out our nuclear option.

With puppet girl she was about to beat us so we had to go for the eye attack which many people didnt want to do but knew it was our only chance.

Mari was actually smart and was about to pull her nuke out since she knows how tricky we could be but we stopped her with the paralysis bells.

Boruto was just retarded and cocky so we had time to chip away at him until he effectively beat himself. we really only won because we survived the rasengan and because of our seal
>>
>>577957
Summons are going to be a solid upgrade. Eventually, they lead to sage mode as well.

Everything else you're just gonna have to learn manually.
>>
>>577959
Of course Boruto hitting us was a fluke, we could just as easily perfected him.


Mari should have severed the wires with a Shuriken the second we prepped it, she KNEW what we were doing and chose to get into a shoot out instead, which was arrogant.
>>
>>577995
It was pretty funny when you guys decided to weather her storm, since that was the right answer. She would have moved up to bigger and bigger weapons as the fight went on.
>>
>>578019
It was either take a chance then, or get whittled away by her superior skill and dojutsu until we lost. Unlike her we were serious.
>>
>>578019
Just a question minmin.

Can we even defeat or at least incapacitate the monster tails in prev thread?
>>
>>578271
Nah. Too strong. Anyone short of Naruto or Sasuke was gonna have a rough time.
>>
I think a good path for us is to just become an actual ninja instead of a Wizard.
Invest time into our families Iron Fist taijutsu, build up our speed to fuck off levels, get good at sneaky shit like traps and poison, and build apon basic bitch skills to make them super deadly.
>>
>>579086
Oh and more genjutsu
Thats always a good think
>>
>>579087
I still think we should go full Aizen.
>>
>>579100
that would imply that we had some type of master plan to take over the world...or something.
What was Aizen's main goal again.
>>
>>579086
>>579087
Taijutsu: 2.5
Ninjutsu: 3.0
Genjutsu: 2.5
Strength: 2.5
Speed: 3.0
Intelligence: 3.5
Chakra Control: 3.0
Stamina: 2.5

Looking at our stat we are already on track for what your looking for.
I think pre time skip cap for all stats is 3.5 so reasonably everything your looking for.
I feel however we should stat with Genjutsu and Stamina
I am also in favor of just skipping out on raising STR
>>
>>579138
I... I don't really know. Something about the Soul King? I dropped Bleach a little while after the beginning the Quincy Arc. I meant we should focus on some advanced keikaku tactics and genjutsu.

Even if our Int wont increase we can still learn alot about Planning and tactics form Shadowman while studying Genjutsu on our own and have Brother train us to use Iron Fist.
I also think doing Lee and Guy style physical challenges our town when we are not training something specific can help with building speed and stamina. Shit like wearing heavy weights and jogging around the village instead of going on brisk walks would to wonders even if the growth is slow.

I would also like to spend more time with Salad and her squad of child nukes. No real tactical reason for it just think we could learn a thing or two from seeing how the other side lives. Maybe get more familiar with Salad and her mom. I dont know what it is about Milf Sakura that i like so much but i want more of it in this quest/
>>
>>579151
I'm all for bumping Genjutsu, if we are gonna rely on it at all we need it to stick.

Ok i was thinking
You know a skill that i dont think anyone has.
Alchemy as in making potions that help you do things.
Im sure if we get in with Ino' s family we can totally learn enough about plants to start doing independent research on the application of alchemy and potion making in the ninja world.
It can be like a side project. And just imagine all the poisons we can make.

Excuse you, I'll have you know we are pretty much the bottom. Calling anyone else "lesser" is as dismissive as everyone was to us.

>>
>>586298
Or we could give a giant middle finger to that because we didn't need that trash to be good. Why not spend time making our family instead of piggybacking off an established tradition? Teach our children, not expect their genes to decide everything.

If you think the Will of Fire is about eugenics, you're wrong. It is about ensuring the best for our children. I would rather the next generation be forged through adversity than handed power on a silver platter, only then do you have true strength of will. Abandoning the idea that the average ninja can outperform any amount of bloodline through skill and perseverance, that would be a tragedy.

TLDR; Bloodlines are a crutch that make people bad at actual work, see Boruto for example.

>>586330
We're better than nobody, we won because we outlasted Bort, nothing more. Although I will agree he's shit.
>>
>>586288
>>586224
Anons, we're gonna get so good at ninja'ing we're gonna make those nerds reevaluate what it means to be a goddamn ninja.

Lets find the most low born shit tier commoner waifu and start our own clan.
It will be the one true ninja clan in this world of overpowered wizards.

>>586343

>Implying we can't teach our kid and have them have the best genes
Your right about one thing though, we're not giving up or last name.
The idea of fighting tooth and nail to build a prominent clan out of shit is just appealing enough to give up on literally every waifu we currently know of.
Ninja Patriarch Quest is a go.

I'm glad I'm not the only one here who feels this way. Notice how all our family techniques are able to be learned, not inherited. I would definitely be down for marrying into a family that uses techniques passed down that need to be learned, but we need to keep our name. As long as it requires effort, then our family will prosper under the challenge.

I like Himawari, but don't do it just because of fancy eyes.

>>586423
She's nice. Unlike every other canon girl we have a chance with. Also the fucking with Bort is a bonus.
>>
>>586423
Fucking with Boruto is my favorite pass time
Besides im pretty sure Himawari likes us.
We saved her life, fought and won against her brother, and regularly are sent on errands to his house to help out.
Im 86% sure she has a crush on us
>>
>>586467
What would our stance of romance even be? We aren't very sentimental and we have probably been focusing on being a ninja to much to even notice girls

>>586504
Well we still have to hangout with our friends,and ai is probably one of our best friends right now,we are constantly sent on errands for naruto when we have our day's off so we'd spend time with himawari, and we'd need to go to the ten ten shop so we'd be forced to spend Mari
>>
>>586534
We had the issue with TenTen BECAUSE we chose too early. Then something new anons liked more came by but we had already laid the groundwork so that's why she pined after us. This is a similar beast. Soft Locking too early fucked us last time, let's not do that again.

Onboard with Himawari because I just realized hardened fists and Gentle Fist combined is a terrfiying and awesome prospect.
>>
Snow Princess seemed to really like us too
>>
>>586556
>Iron Fist Clan
I'd fund it. Let's do it lads
>>
>>586556
Im sure if we choose anyone but TenTen it would have been fine
The problem with TenTen was she realized way to fucking late that she had womanly needs and it fucked her over

I want to waifu Himawari right away because she wont need the convincing that a Sarada or Mari would need so we can spend less time waifuing and more time focusing on getting swole.

Sarada lets you into her home, which is as neat and girlish as ever. Pastels and throw pillows abound, it makes you laugh a little on the inside when you compare it to your own bachelor pad.

"Just lay down on the couch."

The flatscreen TV is playing some sort of reality television show. Something to do with people who have too much money and free time. Sarada seems interested, but any time you try to focus on what's going on your brain just zones out to shinobi life.

You roll up your navy blue pantleg, and cut the bandage with a kunai. Sure enough there's spots of red on the cloth. Sarada winces as she glances at the nasty wound. The various methods of healing and restoration it's undergone over the past few days is rather unnatural. The skin around the wound where it's healed is a milky white, as opposed to your more natural skin tone. You're not sure how long this mock vitiligo will last.

"Are you going to be participating in the next Chunin Exams?" you sincerely ask. She gives you a slightly annoyed look, but realizes that you're not teasing her. She adjusts her glasses. "Yes, our whole squad will. This time I doubt there'll be as much serious competition though.

It occurs to you that all the people who failed are just going to be coming back even stronger. That makes her statement even bolder. "Really? What makes you say that?"

She just smiles before thrusting a peroxide dampened paper towel onto your wound. Your body stiffens as you make a sharp "SSSSS" noise, withstanding the pain. "I've got a secret weapon. So does Mitsuki, and Boruto. Not only that, but Konohamaru sensei has been taking our training to a new level. Before all of this he sort of left us to our own devices.."

This makes you laugh. Konohamaru and your sensei are in the same age group after all, it makes sense they'd have a bit of similarities in teaching style.

Speaking of secret weapons, you remind yourself to visit Ten-Ten at some point. You should check progress on the jet sheath.

Sarada finishes up around ten minutes later, having largely healed your wound completely. It's clear she has superior medical skills to you. Are the Uchiha really just better at everything in general?

She stands up, changing the channel to some sort of anime about normal high school. Is this really what the girls in your class are like? It's rather surprising for you personally. "You should be fine to go full blast, after a night's rest. You said you're already going on another mission?"

>boruto may have caught up already and is probably gunning for our ass
We need the summons and we need them fast
>>
>>592548
What we need is hardcore training in genjutsu or some other kind of attack instead of learning healing
>>
>>592571
Healing is actually useful but I agree that we need to learn genjustu more genjustu
>>
>>592571
Training genjutsu is probably the least likely to gain us a better attack
>>
>>592593
It is what we have built ourselves to be good at though.
>>
>>592602
We need at least 1 ultimate technique. We have many ways to set it up but nothing to quite slam dunk our efforts.
>>
>>592456
>D. Yeah. It's good for me, honestly. It's...harder to predict some of the things people out there will pull off. Keeps me on my toes, forces me to push harder and harder, helps me learn what sort of tools and tricks I need to have handy...worth more than just the money made.
>>
>>592602
Yeah but it's the least likely to have good attacks at our level, ninjustu is a better choice if you want real attacks
>>
>>592593
We should probably prioritize training genjustu and either taijustu or ninjutsu while healing and sealing should take the back seat
>>
>>592629
I think we should learn a ninjutsu powerful enough that every opportunity we create we can capitalize on it. Most of the times we create many chances but we dont have anything to really drive our efforts home.
>>
>>592642
I say ninjutsu and healing should take priority, but I'm a fag who wants us to learn poison fog.
>>
>>592651
I agree. Our hardest hitting jutsu is fucking Hydro Bullet and that's not going to do shit to anybody worth fighting
>>
>>592651
That would have to be a extreamly flexible ninjutsu or just a ninjutsu that can take advantage of our large amounts of stuns
We have the hydro sword which we could use to kill someone while there stunned but we risk getting close
>>
>>592651
the problem is "Big hit" techniques get spammed and turned into a vs match. That is NOT our way. We don't spam a big showy flashy move. We hit someone, they go DOWN, like a real fucking ninja should.

>>592687
Those water senbon might work. If we learn Boil they'd even be poisoned for a "fuck you, you're already dead"
>>
>>592687
What about a medical-style seal that ruptures organs moments after being applied?
>>
>>592642
I feel we should focus on Taijustu Genjustu and thing like Poison.
Having big hard hitting Ninjustsu just isn't our style, we use it more as a utility.
>>
>>592700
That's not really true and a bad point for not learning stronger jutsu
>>
>>592700
Big hit technique after making sure it will land with our many genjutsu/feint driven style sounds actually like the best way to improve our combat standing right now.
>>
>>592709
>>592700
We might be able to mix that into a taijustu style were we try to get a seal on them or hit them with a water senbon made out of the super poisen we had before
>>
>>592710
Taijutsu just seems like a waste when must people we fight seem to be tailed beast and I don't know why you guys keep assuming strong ninjutsu has to a flashy bullshit
>>
>>592687
The idea here is that even if it's a stupidly powerful jutsu that takes time to charge, we can create that time with our many faints/genjutsus to land it. Some people might find whatever that hypothetical jutsu is extremely dumb since it takes time to set it up and ninjas are all about fast, but since we can create that window of opportunity it would be good for us.
>>
>>592687
I wouldnt trust the sword considering if we somehow slip on it we're in cqc and we get our asshole torn apart since we're not fuckhueg levels of taijutsu. I was thinking more something that would be from a distance.

"Yep!" you say with a grin. "The best way to learn is through experience, right?"

She looks at you like you've turned into a fish. "Riight. Aren't you ever afraid, though? It's really weird to the rest of us, how you just keep jumping into all of this."

You blink. "Huh? What do you mean?"

She looks at the television, the reflection of the screen shining off of her glasses. "Well, you're just not normal for a modern kid."

At this, you can't help but burst out laughing. After a few moments of this Sarada gives in. "Okay, what's so funny?"

You stand up, and stretch your legs out. "A few months ago I was the most normal guy on the planet. No one ever thought twice about me. "Now everyone's wigging out whenever I complete a mission, but I don't get what's so surprising."

Looking at the television, you're watching a highschooler and his girlfriend in the midst of a dramatic argument about something inconsequential, like choosing where to sit at lunch.

"Of course, it is enjoyable. I like fighting, and the adrenaline. The academy here was nice for the longest time, but now I feel like I learn the most when I'm out there in the field. Putting myself to the test in ways I'd never thought of. A trial by fire!"


"The world is full of problems." you say.

>A. We stopped being kids when we decided to be Shinobi.

>>592718
We are NOT a nuker, we lack the chakra reserves and special eyes or bloodline to make the best use of them. We're a support, and mezzer. Focus on genjutsu, poisons and the like.

>>592732
Oooooor get a source of strong poison we can keep using, which amounts to roughly the same thing, a fuck you, you lose finish.

>>592748
It's mostly so the Shonen super powers won't OHKO us once the close. Given Mizuki's strathiness, Bort's shadow spam and gentle fist, and Sarada's sharingan and super strength, not counting other focused on getting close to fuck us, It's getting for evasion and throwing them off those precious few seconds we need to get distance. It also affects how well we throw weapons....

>>592774
Ninjas get caught in 1v1 all the time, if you dont have anything to fall back onto then you're gonna get killed, not having at least 1 last resource nuke is a bad idea.

Also considering that we're jack of all trades we shouldnt try to face people in the thing they're good at, we should try to manipulate the battle to make the thing they're worse at pop up, so getting in cqc with a guy that is stupidly good at it doesnt sound smart.
>>
>>592846
Then we build up a stash of Poison
Learn our family Taijutsu
And learn better genjutsu that will give use more time to use skills above
>>
>>592915
A Naruto MC not maxing Ninjutsu? Blasphemy!
>>
>>592915
This and more water stuff if not nukes maybe more utility stuff like the mist

Remember the only genjutsus we know are academy/d rank we need to start learning higher level stuff
>>
>>592796
>not having at least 1 last resource nuke is a bad idea.

we don't have the resources for that. Bort can spam the Rasengan because he ahs fucking huge chakra reserves. Sarada has bigger reserves than us AND her bullshit eyes. Don't even get me started on Mizuki and the intendant bullshit Orocimaru wove into him. Nukes are big, showy, draining and for someone like us totally useless if we miss. Go Full tilt big commitment to a single move is not our style. It almost never works out for us. We're dangerous because we have a diverse skill set, not because we're actually strong. You know like how Kakashi was supposed to be before shonen syndrome kicked in hard.

>>592846
>plane
Plain, and we're not, but fighting nuke to nuke would go incredibly poorly for us. Don't play the shonen game, it's what one us the Chuunin exams.

>>592888
It's Not so we get to fight them 1 on 1 toe-to-toe, it's so we can get space so we don't get BTFO the second someone closes. Taijutsu is literally all our melee skills, including close range evasion and getting space away from the people who would wreck our face in a dedicated fight. Unless you want to be that guy who folds after the enemy closes the distance.

>>592915
exactly

>>592935
Utility is godly for us.
>>592936
agreed.
>>
>>592936

But genjutsu is useless, Anon!

:^)
>>
>>592915
The poison is unreliable unless you're talking about poison jutsus, since the moment you get separated from it (for whatever circumstance) you just lost your ability to use it.

Taijutsu is a dead end for any dojutsu user since no amount of taijutsu training can overcome bullshit eyes.

Genjutsu is good to create opportunities, doesnt have that many finishers.

Having at least one ninjutsu that is strong enough as a fall-back resource in case everything fails sounds like the best option to me.

You guys know who has good Genjutsu? Owls
>>
>>592945
won not one

>>592956
We have seals that let us carry poison easily boss.

and your entire argument is that we must go full retard shonen against another stronger full retard shonen to win, which means we've already lost. You also seem to forget how Gai would have killed Madara if not for a case of Madara having STRONG plot armor, and Genjutsu needs only give one opportunity, no matter how strong the ninja, a blade beheading him, or cutting his throat is still lethal.

This anon's got it right.

Takeshi isn't dangerous because of any big name move he has. He's dangerous because his finishers are small, varied, and can be used more than once in rapid succession. Just because he misses a killing blow doesn't mean he's lost by any means.

>>592982
Rats for life owl fag
>>
>>593014
I like both honestly. So long as we don't go tiger I am happy.
>>
>>592982
Owls are fucking scary
But personally I think that every choice just fits us
>>
>>593023
I don't like your non commitment to a potential summon. It makes you look untrustworthy

Can someone remind me again of the pros and cons for each of the animal choices?

We don't know
>>
>>592982
>>593014
>>593023
>>593039
We really should read about what each summon can do before we deside based on look alone
But based on look im all bout Owls
>>
>>593045
Rats are jacks of all trades master of none,
Tigers are good for Taijutsu and application of swift brutal ninjutsu nukes at opportune times
Owls are good for genjutsu and more subtle ninjutsu, also healing.
>>
>>593045
There aren't any true pros or cons, just differences. The big determining factors are what the actual members of the summoning family can do.

You're not just gonna get summons, but are pretty much meeting a whole new cast of characters who will teach you things and be your buddies. What these guys know will give you different opportunities, consequently.
>>
>>593045
>>593062

And owls have ancient techniques people have forgotten about.
60% cool old stuff people forgot
40% outdated bullshit.
>>
>>592945
I dont think you're getting what I'm saying, it's purposefully draining since the idea is that you should tie him down with everything else to make sure your last-resource hits and kills. It's not called a last-resource because you spam it, that's the idea behind it. You keep poking around with your other shit, and if you see it's getting nowhere then you go balls to the wall, tie him down and nuke it. It's your "I dont have anything else, time to gamble" move.

>>592992
My argument is that you need a last resource nuke, that's my argument. Something that is there for when poking around doesnt do anything, because I'm certain that there are enemies that are gonna be "lol that didnt even tickle", I bet it will happen with all the bullshit they were able to pull in late naruto.

Gai is Gai, we're just retard noname #1 we dont know gates and I dont think we're gonna learn about gates unless somehow people let into that secret for no reason, it was one of the most dangerous techniques if I recall correctly since that was strong enough to surpass a kage, that's pretty shonen tier right there.

Also the seals were in some wrist-bands right? Or did we get seals in our body to carry poisoned senbons?
>>
>>593014
Owl for like, rat fucker.
>>
>>593062
You also forgot the fact that rat could teach us poisen justus,tiger probably has underdog seals,and owls can teach us how to fly
>>
I didn't really mean pros and cons I just wanted to know what they specialize in, seeing now I think they all fit pretty good especially the rats probably deadly once mastered and you can summon them all. I am leaning more to Tiger or Owl though.
>>
>>593057
Mini has explained what they do, several times.
>>
>>593128
I like rat, seems pretty much the way of the MC.
>>
>>593088
One last resources nuke as a trump means we've turned our brain off on how to beat these guys without a death or glory attack, aka shonen syndrome. That's why I am against it. It's what happened with the Chidori and Rasengan and I don't want to see anons looking at a technique as an easy out.

Yes the seals on the wrist bands, but if we lose those we have no arms so we're kinda fucked anyways. Also with better seals come more carrying capacity and places we can put them.

>>593087
60% cool old op bullshit techniques that people forgot
40% just outdated bullshit

>>593101
To be fair rats can teach seals too, and owls could teach poison too I would imagine.

"We stopped being kids when we decided to be shinboi. We give up things like that, so other kids can enjoy them."

She scoffs slightly. "Well, I don't know about you, but I still feel like a kid usually. That's a nice sentiment, but you should learn to enjoy yourself here too. It can't be good to be full shinobi one hundred percent of the time."

You pat your once wounded leg. "Well, I'm fine right now, as it is. Oh yeah, do you think you could show me some tips on Chakra Scalpel?"

She sighs. "Yeah, sure. If it'll get you out of my hair. What kind of problems are you having?"

You tell her how it's difficult to maintain the shape while moving, and that manipulating the length of blade seems impossible. Not only that, but the other factors like maintaining a clean cut or not breaking the skin are also problematic.

Truthfully, you're best thinking of how to apply this technique to combat. It's true use is a medical tool however. Sarada would be the best one to give you advice in this, aside from her own mother.

She puts a finger to her chin. "Sounds like you just need to get good. If you just keep practicing, it'll come. You're pushing your chakra control to new limits with this move."

Sticking out your hand, you give her a thumbs up. "Thanks! Both for healing my leg, and the advice. I owe you one sometime."

She's pushing you out of her house as she grumbles. "Just stop coming over unannounced. Do you do this with everyone you know!?"

"You don't?"

You're shoved out the door, and it slams behind you. With a healed leg, the Leaf village is yours to explore for a few hours. The sun will be starting to set earlier, as fall is approaching.

Rats have a rat for everything, literally every situation.

Owls are nin and gen, Tigers are tai

Then we can never have any strong technique since any strong technique is synonim to that "shonen syndrome" you're talking about.

Pretty much the biggest advantage of the rats is that they have a specialist member of every type of combat.

They won't know the best techniques of any given branch, but they're not weak and you have them all open to you.

Owls for example, won't teach you things like taijutsu or puppetry at all. But they're the best when it comes to Genjutsu, Sealing, and such.

Tigers are essentially a Nin-Tai combo team. Closest to your normal summons in that they're there to fuck shit up, and can teach you to do the same. One member of the Tigers knows some stealth tricks too.

No, no it isn't. You are specifically asking for us to get a single solitary move that is a nuke. A death or glory attack. NONE of our attacks are that way and I'd like to keep it like that. You can learn strong techniques without them being nukes, look at our bells for example, strong, but not our only hope. Variety and Utility are better for us by FAR than any sort of nuke we could try.

Okay buddy, whatever you want, I just think it's good to have a last resource technique that is strong enough to get us off from a "you cant do anything" situation, last line of defense and all that.
>>
>>593202
That's why I like the Tigers, they make up for our weakness. Stealth would probably be the best thing to learn from them. However, Rats and Owl probably fit our character better in his strengths of strategy and misdirection

>I just think it's good to have a last resource technique that is strong enough to get us off from a "you cant do anything" situation

First of all if we're in that situation we fucked up majorly, second of all that is shonen thinking. "This guy no sold some of my basic stuff, go straight to death or glory nuke to win!" That is anathema to us. Utility, diversity, being able to have a counter for any given situation via a wide array of knowledge in a variety of techniques, that's how we've succeeded and how we have gone from a nobody to a small nightmare. Not going shonen/10 which mini has said would not work for us because we lack the bloodline, family and dojutsu for it. Work smarter, not harder scrub.
>>
>>593311
Okay man, it's shonen/10, whatever, I just thought it was a good idea, sorry.
>>
Genjutsu has payed dividends so far, and that's with frankly mediocre skill and shit-level jutsus. Buffing it more opens a whole world of possibility. Alongside genjutsu, Owls are perfect, both for the genjutsu, and for the element of surprise. Pretty much every fight we've ever won has been due to our enemy not knowing what we're going to do, and no one will expect us to pull out ancient shit no one's seen for centuries. Even low quality techniques can be useful if they're totally baffling and inexplicable.

OOC this is also kinda Genjutsu-Quest, we've already got Taijutsu and Ninjutsu in other places, but no one ever does Genjutsu.

If you hurry, you can make it to the Special Weapons shop before it closes. At once you Shunshin onto the rooftops and race to the front of the store. People in the city are moving about as normal, enjoying the peace of the early evening. The air is very cool, when you're this high up. Running down a wall and into an alleyway, you walk out onto the main road and spot the shop.

Heading in, you see Ten-ten leaning on the counter flipping through a weapon's magazine. The bell on the door rings as you enter, and she looks up. "Well, hello there! It's been a little while. I heard you had quite the encounter yesterday."

You nod. "Yeah, it was pretty intense. Sensei and Kichiro are still in a hospital over at the Cloud Village."

She whistles. "Rough. Do you know how they're doing?"

"Yeah, I was told they'd both recover. Just gotta rest."

She nods. "Great. Let's hope those bozos can lay still long enough. But enough about that. What can I getcha?"

"Well, I guess the first thing I wanted to ask was how the Jet Sheath was coming along."

Her eyes light up, and she slams her hands on the table. "It's going great! You wanna come in the back and see for a second? It still needs a little time to be perfected, but the prototype of the prototype is ready."

"Sure. I also wanted to ask if you could restock me on senbon, bells and things like that."

She rolls her eyes. "You and my daughter are pretty much my best customers. Coming right up!"

After paying for the transaction and packing up your stuff, Tenten leads you into the back. You go down a hallway and some stairs, and open up a door to what seems to be a small gymnasium that's built underground. She goes over to a large metal locker with a bolted lock, and opens it up. Inside are various electrical devices, and feats of engineering you couldn't begin to understand. Of course, much of it is only partially assembled. She lifts out a white, curved mechanical sheath. It's made to fit your wakizashi perfectly. Though, you didn't happen to bring it today.

Tenten of course has one of her own, summoned from a scroll. "Okay, you see those wooden dummies right there?"

You do. They're standing in the center of the gymnasium.

"Check this out!" she says. She slides the curved blade into the sheath, and thrusts it in with a final click to lock in the hilt. The sheath has three small red glass bulbs on the side. The first lights up, then the second, then the third. This took about three seconds total.

She leaps forward at a high speed, and slams the red trigger fitted on the blade. The sheath makes a loud beep, and instantly propels the blade out with an explosion of wind.

Due to Tenten being in the air, the momentum instantly forces her into a whirlwind spin. She's a storm of blades as she flies past the wooden dummies, and when she lands they all shatter into several pieces. Perfect cuts.

You run over, hands up. "That was awesome!"

She laughs. "Thanks! After seeing that crazy puppet in the tournament you beat, I had to catch the Leaf up with the rest of the world in terms of weaponry. This is just the first piece of a new line of equipment! But, like I said, it still needs proper calibration. I'll let you know when it's finished!"

You smile. "Right. Thanks for everything!"

"I forgot to ask if you had anything new in stock that you think I would like."

She thinks for a moment. "Mmm, not particularly. I know I'll be getting some new explosives soon though."

You grin. "Well, I'm interested in that."

The older kunoichi laughs. "As I expected. The new stuff should be here next week!"

"Great." you say. "Is Mari here?"

Tenten shakes her head. "Little girl is at home. She had a mission yesterday, so she's a little beat up and tired. I wouldn't expect anything else from the way Lee pushes her, though. It's really amazing what this generation is accomplishing, already. I feel some of the best and brightest this village will ever see are gonna come from this class."

You can't help but blush. "Well thanks, Miss Tenten. Have a good night."

She says the same to you, and leads you to the front of the shop where you make your exit and head home.

The travel is short. You plop into your bed after shedding your clothes, and instantly fall asleep.

The next morning, your eyes snap open at the crack of dawn. Your alarm is blaring, and you reach over and slap it for some peace and quiet. Standing up, you go through your morning ritual and have a small bite to eat. You're also sure to bring along some rations for the journey. Mostly your favorite snacks.

You take a single step out your door before a voice outside your field of vision causes you to flinch and take a fighting pose.

It's Kakashi, the former Hokage. He chuckles. "Good to see you're alert. I wanted to make sure you remembered our agreement. Mirai will lead the squad to the hill, and camp there for the night. That's when you'll make your choice. She won't say anything about it, but she knows. This is some sensitive information for your eyes and ears only, so keep it to yourself. Got it?"

It's easy to see that this man is rock solid from the ground up. His intimidating stature both inspires and frightens you. "Got it!"

You think that he smiles behind the mask, like a gentle old man. It's a sudden turn. "Good. I'll see you when you get back."

The man vanishes in front of your eyes. Either a feat of speed, or technique. Either way it's beyond you.

You head out to the village gates, and look around for Mirai's squad. At the side of the road, you see everyone. Shinji, the Aburame boy with sandy blonde hair. Himawari, daughter of the Hokage and a Hyuuga Clan Member. Kayo as well, the doglike girl from the Inuzuka clan. Her black pup Akahiko is also present, rolling around in the grass.

Mirai is standing nearby, looking over a map.

You wave one arm high in the air. "Hey everyone! Sorry I'm a little bit late!"

Everyone's heads swivel. The girls all have a smile, but you can't see Shinji's face due to his tall collar. He gives a friendly wave back, however. Mirai folds up the map and slips it into her flak jacket. Mirai Sarutobi is a member of the same family as Konohamaru, the grandson of the Hokage. Your last mission with her was one of the first truly dangerous obstacles you had to overcome. She's a multitalented Jounin. Taijutsu, Genjutsu, and Ninjutsu are all her specialties.

"Hey there, Mister Chunin! I go on one mission with you and you're already ranked up!"

Shinji nods. "That's right. Congratulations."

Kayo scratches her nose. "I still have no idea how you did it."

Himawari smiles. "Even though my brother lost, it was still a really great tournament."

"Thanks everyone. How are you all doing?"

Kayo grumbles. "Tired."

Shinji and Himawari both nod in agreement, laughing quietly. Mirai however seems to be full of energy. "We're great! This mission shouldn't be any problem at all, if everything goes smoothly. Takeshi, you're gonna be my second in command for this."

As expected. She goes on. "We're needed to patrol the streets in an area of martial law. The Mist has had problems with it's citizens rebelling against the government and they need us to help secure some borders. Apparently these rebels have been sabotaging certain farms. The issue is that these same farms that provide food for the military also provide for the Hidden Mist. Generally we don't get involved in internal struggles, but when people start hurting innocents for no reason we can't just stand by."

Everyone nods, the mood taking a more serious tone suddenly.

Himawari steps forward. "How long will the journey be to get there?"

Mirai stretches. "Mmm, for our destination it'll be about a full day of travel. We're not actually going to the Mist itself, just one of the outlying cities. Everyone fully prepared, then?"

Mirai's squad all agree.

Hey everyone. Having some problems at home at the moment, so I'll be cutting it a little short. But I'm still continuing for a while.

thanks for the head's up Mini. Any chance of tomorrow too?
>>
>>594838
That sucks but please let us pick a summons Mini before you stop
>>
"Why exactly are the people rebelling?" you ask.

Mirai and everyone start on their way. You can talk while you walk, there's quite a ways to go after all. Mirai answers you pretty quickly. "Well, the same reasons people usually do in the mist. The government is corrupt, and the infrastructure of the place is uh, nonexistent. It's still mostly dirt roads thanks to all the marshes until you reach the chain of islands. Then from there you pretty much just have the ferrymen to rely on. There are many people in the country who don't receive any of the prosperity that the hidden mist gets these days. A problem with class-ism."

Himawari turns her head towards her sensei. "So, we're fighting on the side of the corrupt people?"

Mirai groans. "No, not exactly. We're just going there to make sure no one gets hurt, and the crops don't get damaged. Despite the poor relations that the Mist has with it's own people, it's not our place to police them. If the situation were to get bad enough they'd make some calls at the Kage Summit."

Makes sense to you.

"Oh yeah, Naruto said he was going to brief us. Is he busy today?"

Mirai looks back. "Yeah, he got called for an emergency meeting with the Cloud. Apparently we're going to be making some sort of joint task force to deal with the cultists."

Over the course of the day, you do a lot of walking. You stop for breakfast a couple hours later, and take a break. The forests are starting to become a bit more sparse as you get closer and closer to the coast. The air is growing humid and you hear the sounds of unfamiliar wildlife. You're nearing the border of the country at night when your group stops to make camp on a mountaintop, overlooking the Lands of Fire and Water.

You look around the camp.

Himawari is asleep in her sleeping back. Shinji is reading a book, sitting near the fire. Kayo is laying next to the fire, sprawled out and asleep. Mirai is sitting off to the side, in a deep meditation.

Gulping, you reach into your pack and open up the scroll that Kakashi had given you.

The light of the campfire illuminates the illustrations on the scroll. To the Lake, the Rats. To the Forests, the Owls. To the Plains, the Tigers.

The exact meaning of the scroll is unclear to you. However, you do see three dirt paths surrounding you.

What path do you want to walk?

>A. Path of the Tiger

Ai, Sarada or Mari for waifus. (Though I'd be fine with them being bros.)

Dun really care about puppet girl.

I'd rather not have Himawari, 'cause while I know she's aged up here, I still can't stop thinking of her as an 8 year old. And I dun like it.
>>
>>595261
If we don't waifu Ai I don't think she will pursue anyone, but I am down for whatever.

>>595250
Sorry
I just feel everlasting salt after some guy's tried to concede so that they had a better chance at waifuing her

>>595303
Its fine that was retard and I wish we lost an eye if we went through with it

We could always try to be a good friend and set her up on a date

Kichiro?

That Roku dude was asking about her during the Chunin exams wasn't he? We could hook him up to apologize for the fucking savage ass beating we have him.

Seriously he had that fight in the bag and we just take it from him in a second

Chunin exams in this quest was the highlight for me

You turn back towards the forest, your homeland. Quietly as possible, you sneak off. Looking back you're unsure if you saw Mirai glance out the corner of her eye. Either way, you know that she's on the same page as you as far as this secret mission from Kakashi.

For whatever reason, he's felt it necessary to guide you onto the path of the Summoning Jutsu. You've chosen to walk to the Forest, where the Owl family resides. Of course, you have no idea how to reach them or what exactly you're supposed to do.

Walking down the path, you head deep into the night. The moon and stars guide you somewhat, but the thick forest restricts your vision. You take a lighter from your pocket that was used to start the campfire, and hold it up for a makeshift torch.

You're somewhat reminded of the time that you had spend in the Forest of Death, stumbling blindly in the darkness. You really wish you'd have brought a light with you back then.

The memory of the white owl also calls back to you. Perhaps that was a sign, leading to this moment. You travel for what feels like an hour, until you reach a fork in the road.

Standing there silently, you here the hoot of an owl down the rightmost path.

You walk forward, towards the clan.

Or a random owl.

That's all for tonight folks. I'll pick up again tomorrow possibly, and if not I'll post the next thread time.
>>
>>595445
Damn. At least it wasn't tigers
>>
>>595445
>Or a random owl.

That'd be one hell of an anticlimax ha!

Thanks for running Mini, I'm hella excited for Owl shenanigans.
>>
>>595445

Thanks for running, Mini!

>>595464

Tigers would have been cool, too.
>>
>>595445
Thanks for running Mini! You expect us to pick Owl? We going to pick up that Yin-tang sight blocking Genjutsu Hashirama used?
>>
Oh, and I'll be here for questions for a little while.

>>595464
The owls are going to quickly prove useful. First you have to learn the jutsu, though.

>>595469
It's gonna be fun. Meeting the whole crew. Of course, at first you'll only have the most minor of summons

But he's gonna be more useful than hedwig at least.

>>595482
Personally I was pushing for rats, they were my favorite just on preference. Owls are going to be great as well however.

I expected either owl or rat. Tiger didn't have much chance.
>>
>>595499
Aside from being the first Owl Sage in a long time, I really like their Sage Mode. The 360 degree neck turn just sounds so appealing to me.
>>
>tfw you're late and they pick Owl

Fuck me
>>
>>595526
What were the sage mode descriptions again?
>>
>>595499
So mini
Did the squad notice our absence
If so did they watch is do the summon thing

Also if we do end up not waifuing ai, would she pursue romance or not
>>
>genjutsu summon
so fucking boring
>>
>>595445
Thanks for running, I think this is the first time I participated I got all caught up this week.
>>
>>595535
Pulled from thread 42 archive.

Tiger means cat eyes, claws, orange for on elbows and whiskers on cheek. Rat means slightly buck teeth, a fully functional rat tail, and four long whiskers on your upper lip.

Owl means your eyes dilate fully, you get feathers on your body, notably the elbows, and you can turn your head all the way around.
>>
>>595580
Says you, imagine the fun shit we could try to get from them.
>>
>>595580
>WAh I don't like the Mc of the Quest's style.
>>
>>595591
Holy shit owls are fucking awesome
Also combine that with how cute/intimidating they can be and there a top tier summon
>>
>>595559
mirai and shinji noticed but mirai knows what's up and shinji didn't give a fuck

Ai isn't interested in romance at all right now. In the future it's possible I suppose

>>595535
At low mastery, all the animal forms give you some physical changes due to the sage mode chakra. Example in the show is Jiraiya having toad warts and powerful as fuck legs for jumping.

Owl is feathers along the arms and elbows, zoom eyesight/nightvision, and 360 degree turning on your neck. Your pupils dilate to the max too.

Tiger was a prehensile tail, claws, and some fur on the arms and chest. You'd also get more muscular.

Rat actually has the buckteeth one mentioned here >>595591

and a secret mode that can be use with assistance of the Rat leader. Just a different aesthetic really, no combat enhancement over the others

>>595580
It'll be Genjutsu, non elemental Ninjutsu, and Sealing Jutsu.

An example of one of the first jutsu you can learn from them will be the Temple of Nirvana Jutsu. The one that Kabuto used to put a stadium to sleep.
>>
>>595615
They can also fly you around, death from above
>>
>>595591
>turn your head full 360
freak our enemies the fuck out with that shit.
>>
>>595626
I really wanted rats, alas.

I archived this by the way, so don't worry
>>
>>595626
>put a stadium to sleep.
Holy shit that's powerful
>>
>>595646
I was also pulling for rats.

But I can be happy to say they'll get fully featured. Two of your friends will get the other summons

not necessarily your team mates
>>
>>595673
>Two of your friends will get the other summons

Cool.

And I wouldn't have minded rats or tigers.

I just liked the owls more. That, and the chance at getting ancient techniques that people have forgotten about.
>>
>>595626
>We pull out temple of nirvana in a training match with bort
>salad starts freaking the fuck out
>>
>>595673
Kichiro is getting tigers right?
>>
>>595711
Or Mari
Rats will probably go to shika or ai
>>
>>595711
I honestly hope for this
>>
>>595673
S'cool, Owls are super cool as well.

Should be interesting.
>>
>>595702
Nah it would be more like
>Jonin Exams
>Takeshi pulls out Temple of Nirvana
>Everyone from the canon exams freakout
>>
>>595740
That would be so bullshit to pull and salad would be having a seizure at that point
>>
>>595673
Just to be clear They can give a boost to stuff they don't focus on just not nearly as well yeah? Also do they know a flying jutsu so we can DFA our enemies?


>>595740
>>595760
More like
>Jonin Exams
>blanket the area with tagged kunai ala FTG
>Genjutsu seals
>Catch everyone else barring Sarada in a Genjutsu akin to Tsukoyomi

Speaking of,

Mini what's Salad's tin foil level at after we talked to her?

Question regarding the chakra scalpel technique. Can we only project it thru our hands or can we project it at any part of his body?
>>
>>595783
Well sage mode is the same across all animals. The only difference for sage mode is that at low mastery, when you can't control it, you gain some features of the animal you have a sage contract with.

Sage mode gives you super strength, speed, durability, makes you smarter, and makes all your jutsu more powerful.

But it lasts like 3 turns without a source to draw on like shadow clones or a summon who can channel sage chakra.
>>
>>595784
this big

>>595867


>>595885
just through the hands
>>
>>595908
Whats her problem anyway
Is everyone worried about how gung-ho we are about throwing ourselves into danger or dose it just freak her out.
Aww dose she care?
>>
>>595908
Is Mirai still trying to set us up with Himawari?
>>
>>595908
how big is the mental health analysis folder on us?


How is HantoxMirai progressing?
>>
>>595895
I imagine owl would be able to channel the chakra seeing as it's really fucking old
>>595908
How big would it be if we pulled out temple of nirvana
>>
>>595938
We are baisclly orochimaru at this point in time
>>
Thanks for the info.

Genjutsu looks kinda of fun especially with the tricks we can pull off with it when we combine it with our other techniques (like the roof tile shuriken jutsu once we mastered it)
>>
Seems like mini is gone
So threads over
Remember that himawari and mari best girl
Remember that we need to save kichiro from the life of blackjack and hookers
Remember that we need to set ai up on a date in the future
>>
>>596265
Sounds good
good night bros
>>
>>595626
Wow, what we can learn from the Owls sounds awesome to me. Maybe not as 'flashy' as some anons seem to think is cool, but I'm very excited.
>>
>>596265
With you for a few of these, kinda iffy on the best girl lsit and "saving" Kicihiro.

>>596299
Owls are subtle silent killers.
>>
Personally would have liked Rats since their specialization would have exploded the amount of options we would have on hand, making us far more versatile..

but owls were a close second, so it's cool.
>>
>inb4 Maximum Owl summon is something like "Prime Minister Owl"
>Most things decided by Parliament

Names for animal gatherings are a hoot.
>>
Honestly after such huge buildup im sad I missed it

Wanted rats for more versatility but Im not dissapointed with owls at all surprisingly, tigers would have pissed me off though

So how bout we ease up on the waifu discussion next round guys. I know it's traditional for quests to have waifu wars, but it must be frustrating for a QM to have all kinds of cool shit in a quest for anons to just focus on imaginary women.

Probably not going to happen. Usually our Waifu wars only happen when Mini is away though. The summons war or the "Takeshi must be shonen to win" comes up more often.

Might have been just this thread but I noticed a lot of waifu bullshit bring thrown in. It was pretty much all social interactions thread thread though.

Once we start on the mission proper, waifu shit should die down

I reaaally hope we don't go the StandardShonenMC route with Takeshi. Seriously, let's go with poison, genjutsu and stealth/deception and become the first true ninja .

I'm down with this. I'd like the MC of this quest to be more in line with a traditional ninja than the walking nukes of this world. Though that's not to say we can't be powerful or a match for them, just different.

Just once I want an actual ninja mission. Impersonate a rich guy's chef and poison his food then leave before anyone finds out.

Hell, we could kill Naruto by transforming into the ichiraku guy and poisoning him that way

I agree. Even by us utilizing poison and medicine we have powerful aides and tools outside 'ninja magic'. Don't get me wrong, it's one of the coolest things about this setting. But I'd like to create a very deadly uncommon type of shinobi (for this world).
