Time for healing?

>>47651235
H-hype? Sorry, I'm just a bit frightened after last time. God, we screwed the pooch, there.

Now let me tell you right now guys, this thread may run pretty short, depending on how much you guys decide to do. I will be stopping short of The Last since I haven't actually seen it

This thread will cover what happens in the time leading up to it. Just a heads up

>>47651272
Agreed. I blame Tentenfags.

>>47651322
A lot of people agreed to the ninshu option, i'm sure a good portion of them were kurofags that were looking for a solution to the problem they had with hurting their friends feelings.

You take things easy for the next few weeks, trying to keep your mind clear. Most of your time is divided between your friends, just spending time with them without worrying for any danger. You manage to make a decent cook out of Sai in this time.

Eventually, Kiba's wedding draws near.

"Sorry Kon, gonna have to give it to Sasuke." Kiba apologizes. "It was because of him that we met in the first place, you know? I'm sure you understand."

Only slightly disappointed, you suit up for the big day and attend. Most of your colleagues are there, with only a few that seem to have been unable, or unwilling to make it. You see all of the Inuzuka clan here, and your uncle has come along with Tsume. On Tamaki's side, aside from her grandmother, she seems to have invited a huge group of ninja cats. You can only imagine the restraint that they and the dogs of the Inuzuka clan are exercising for this.

The ceremony goes off without a hitch, and everyone enjoys themselves at the party afterwards, congratulating the newlyweds. Though you hear Ino telling Haku that theirs needs to be even better. Something about an ice sculpture.

As the party winds down, Roshi arrives. You had been expecting him, and were going to head off on your journey with him soon after this.

"The Tsuchikage sends her regards, and apologizes for being too busy to attend." Roshi tells you. "So whenever this wraps up we're good to go, right?"

>A.Yeah, we're about done here. I'll get ready

>B.Congratulate Kiba and Tamaki one more time before you go

>C.Talk to someone else (Write-in)

>D.Other

>>47651373
I voted for it, but I'm neither.

I'd rather leave Kon single for the rest of his life.

>>47651272
Eh, such is the woe of waifu wars. The quest no longer becomes remembered for what it should be, instead it will be known for how people screwed up with that one girl.

Honestly, I'm a little saddened that this quest might just become 'just another waifu quest'.

>>47651395
>C.Talk to someone else (Write-in)
Ask Konohomaru if he'd like to go.

Itachi im gonna go on a soul searching journey for a while. Feel free to send a jounin that isnt important to the story but is strong none the less, Like Aoba or something. BYEBYEEEE

No doubt, but I still want to strangle the people that thought of that. We could've just told her, tell her we still care for her and left. Now shit is worst.

>>47651395
>>B.Congratulate Kiba and Tamaki one more time before you go

Well if Laze didn't make everybody feel like shit for not chosing Tenten, that wouldn't have happened. People only voted for ninshu because they were desperate not to lose Tenten as a friend as well. A lot of people are to blame, but the lions share goes to Laze.

>>47651457
We fucking did tell her that we still cared about her, it still wasn't enough.

>>47651546
It was enough. You just had to give her some damn time afterwards.

Things aren't solved in an snap or with magic jutsu all the time.

>>47651522
Alot of people voted for the ninshu option and then even more bitched about doing it and it being a mistake. Me thinks that alot of the people that voted for the option claimed that other people were retards for voting for it. It is honestly just mostly annoying at this point when people complain about a majority vote like that one.

>>47651592
Like 7 people of like what 20+ IPs? I think a lot of people just weren't voting cause they wanted to let someone else handle the drama, but when they realized how badly people fucked up then they bitched.

You tell Roshi you just have a few people to talk to before you go.

You already congratulated Kiba and Tamaki, but you make your way over to them one more time to do so again.

"Thank you, Kon." Tamaki replies. "A lot of Kiba's confidence is thanks to you, you know. As long as he's got friends like you, I know I don't have to worry about him."

"You just have fun on your little journey, you hear?" Kiba laughs. "Go out and see the world! You deserve it. We'll all be here when you get back."

You also ask Konohamaru if he wants to join you, but he declines.

"I need to dedicate some time to leading my team." he tells you. "As cool as it would be to travel with you guys, I need to stay here. You have fun, alright, bro?"

You make the rounds and tell a few more people your goodbyes, then head home to change and get your gear. You and Roshi are soon headed out of the village. To who knows where.

"So aside for Kakazan, you never said exactly where we're going on this little trip of ours." Roshi grumbles. "Anywhere in mind?"

>Where are you going to visit on your journey? (Write-in)

It can be as many or as few places as you guys want. There will be a separate vote for training too, you'll do that, don't worry

>>47651700

>>47651700
Every single Ninja Village. We'll learn different fighting styles and tave advantage of our ability to use all five elements to learn many many jutsus.

They said our master, the Third, was called the Professor because he learnd all the Leaf jutsus, right? We fought as a ninja of the world in the War. We'll rise above our teacher.

What do you guys think?

>>47651700
Snow country (See if things have gotten any better), Wave (more of the same), Hot springs (because hot springs), Water (Never actually been), and then any place that seems interesting we've heard of on the way.

>>47651700
Snow kingdom
The great Kon bridge or whatever we ended up calling i forgot
All the major Villages

>>47651700
>>47651752
Let's try to gather an entourage of under utilized ninja in canon. Ask the respective Kage if you can travel with them and increase their strength as ninja. Omoi from cloud, Gaara from sand, and idk who the hell we would take from the village hidden in the mists.

>>47651764
I'll back this.

>>47651700
The brand new Sound village.
Any other summon lands along the way. Defiantly the cat one, if there is one.
Anything with a spooky haunted mansion so Roshi and Kon can solve Scooby-Doo style mysteries. With traps.

>>47651830
Chojuro

You think about it. There's really no shortage of places you can visit. Why not use this time to the fullest?

"Let's just go everywhere." you suggest. "All the major villages, a bunch of minor ones. Why not? I'm sure we can learn a whole lot."

"Hmph." Roshi snorts. "Sounds like a good time."

Your first stop is a trip down memory lane. The first place you ever visited outside of the Fire Country, the Land of Waves. As you and Roshi cross the Kaiza bridge, you eventually reach a large group of people. They're all gathered around what looks to be a set, filming a movie. In fact, you see a familiar face. The former princess of the Land of Snow, and actress, Koyuki. She must be making a movie here.

In the crowd, you also recognize Inari and Tazuna, watching the filming intently. You and Roshi watch for a while, and you feel a sort of deja vu. Like you had seen this before.

Then it hit you. They were reenacting your fight on the bridge. Some details were changed, but it certainly seemed to fit.

Eventually, filming for the day drew to a close. Nobody seems to have noticed you, yet.

Is Haku being played by Koyuki? God Kon's scene with Haku is gonna look really homo XD

>>47652117
Reread that whole scene. It's dumb af.

And I'm the one who wrote the whole speech. god it's stupid.

>>47652007
>>A.Greet Koyuki
>>B.Go see Inari and his grandfather
>>D. Meet the actor playing us.

We should chat briefly with each Jinchiriki in each village we visit, should also hit the springs in each one, a wise investment with all this traveling about.

While I like the traveling I suggest we only do it for a few months max. Otherwise return to Itachi and finally get our ANBU promotion/ private tasks for Itachi, show him his faith was well placed.

>>47652007
>A.Greet Koyuki
>B.Go see Inari and his grandfather

The guy playing us better be good looking as fuck.

>>47652007
>D. Start laughing. Hard.

>>47652007
>D.Other
Offer to play a part! We can probably do some crazy special effects with our jutsu

>>47652307

Seconding this

...we ain't becoming a movie star and doing our own stunts why?

>>47652022
>>47652053
>>47652215

You make your way over to Inari and his grandfather before they make to leave. They see and pause for a moment, before they actually recognize you.

"Hey, Kon!" Inari waves. "Good to see you again!"

You draw closer to the pair, and you all tell each other how you've been. It seems things have been going very well for the Land of Waves these past few years.

"Yep, I'm retired now." Tazuna tells you. "But we got interest about our story, and they had me help with the screenplay. It's been coming along really nicely. I hope this movie can inspire a whole lot of people."

You also make your way over to Koyuki.

"Kon? You're here?" she asks, astonished. "That's wonderful! I can tell you all about the movie, I'm sure you'll love it!"

You're told all about the movie they're making, "Kaiza". The story of how the memory of one man helped a nation out from under the foot of a tyrant. It seems you and your team's roles have been somewhat diminished.

"We can't focus too much on you guys, you understand." Koyuki explains. "We can't use actual likenesses of living ninja. Sorry. You guys are still in, but only the last act."

Koyuki shows you what they have so far. The movie is nearly complete, this is the second to last scene. Koyuki herself is playing Tsunami, but it's not a major role, so she's also directing.

You meet the guy playing your equivalent. He's a lot taller than you were, and in fact, doesn't look much like you at all, aside from the eyes. It seems they had priorities when casting.

For what it is though, you like it. You're not sure you want everything that happened with you to go on screen anyway. You assure her that you'll go see it.

After spending a bit longer in the Land of Waves, you move on. Catching a ship, you and Roshi head to the Village Hidden in the Mist.

You don't plan to stay too long, but you go see the Mizukage nonetheless.

You and Roshi are invited into her office, where you find the woman herself at work behind her desk, with Chojuro and Suigetsu nearby.

"Hey, Kon! What's up?" Suigetsu waves to you. You notice he's lugging around three of the seven swords on his back. "I heard about what happened. Not sure I could have done much by staying, but I still feel kind of bad."

"Suigetsu here came back with three of our seven swords." Mei tells you. "Said he'd hold onto them since we keep losing them. Anyway, we let him back. He's a skilled ninja, and he didn't desert by choice in the first place. Another talented shinobi can only help our village. Things are looking up, after all. Public opinion of our shinobi is back on the rise."

Suigetsu sidles over to you to whisper in your ear as the Mizukage gets back to work.

"Man, I thought I had it bad before, but I am walking on eggshells all the time, here." he tells you, his voice nervous. "So I do a lot of convening once I'm back to get off the hook, right? Well, the Mizukage has a little sister, Fuuko. Total babe, and she's got the hots for me. Not too surprising. Anyway, the Mizukage is about ready to boil me alive every time we so much as meet. Not a fun lady to work under. She needs to do something about that jealousy before she kills somebody."

"What are you whispering about, Suigetsu?" the Mizukage turns from her work again. "You know you're on thin ice, don't test me."

"Of course not, Lady Mizukage." Suigetsu backs away, waving it off and forcing a laugh. "Just catching up on some personal matters, you know."

He seems to be having his own difficulties, but Suigetsu is managing to reintegrate back into the Mist.

>>47652883

Yes, this.
Consider it: We could have a group of ninja from each of the villages, traveling, doing good shit for the people, generally getting gud. It'd even add more drama for Kon when intervillage relations collapse as they are wont to do!

>>47652920
I KNOW RIGHT? Get hyped for giving underutilized characters more screen time. If Chojiro says no we could always ask Utakata

The Traveling Vanguard, Kon of the leaf, Chojiro of the Mist, Roshi of the Stone, Onmi of the Cloud and Gaara of the Sand. Together they wander the world righting wrongs and if you have a job that needs doing...and if you can find them.. you can always call them

We should defiantly bring Gaara along, show him the world a little, give him time to make friends and experience things. Could be good to see the kakokage while we are there.

Before you leave, an idea crosses your mind.

"Chojuro." you turn to the young man in glasses. "Would you like to join us on our journey? I think it might be a good way to build up relations between the villages if we can get some ninja from each village to train together. Didn't you say you wanted to do joint training exercises, Lady Mizukage?"

"I did say that..." Mei taps her desk with her finger. "Alright, I can have Suigetsu fill in while he's gone. This can be a test run for joint operations in the future."

"It does sound like fun." Chojuro admits. "Any time I've left the village before, it was always so serious. I'll do it. I don't want to pass up this opportunity to train, anyway. If I'm going to have a hot at being the next Mizukage, I've got to get a whole lot tougher."

With the Mizukage's permission, Chojuro joins you and Roshi on your travels after a few days waiting and relaxing in the Mist.

You then all head out, catching a ship North to the Cloud. The three of you arrive at the somewhat familiar village high in the mountains after some time and are let through. A lot of people are surprised by your team's composition.

>>47653377
Oh no I want to invite him, it was just really bothering to see the constant misspelling of his name.

>>47653447
Omio?

I wonder if Kon can learn as many jutsus as Kakashi without using a sharingan. He can use all the elements and Impact and Sage stuff means we can access even more from those jutsu.

We could have Kon be the Million Jutsu Ninja.

If you're going to see anyone, it's only natural you'll go see the Raikage. The three of you make your way to his office, and are let in.

You find him behind his desk, accompanied by Darui, C, and Omoi. Chojuro notices the swords on Omoi's back.

"Ah, those are the twin swords, Kiba." he notes. "You have them..."

"Ah. Yeah, sorry." Omoi apologizes. "You probably want them back, but I can't give them. I made a promise to hold onto them until I pass on. Then you can take them again. Now, that's not to say I want to die soon or anything, like if I tripped on the stairs and snapped my neck. That's just be embarrassing to tell her, and I don't think it's a good demonstration of keeping the promise either, it's like cheating, cutting it so short. Then again, I don't really want to hold onto them as I get super old either, since there would probably be years and years I didn't use them, and then I'd just be holding out, and I don't want to do that, either. However, I'm not in a hurry to go die in battle with them either, since that could look bad if I lost with them, plus you guys might not get them back, and you were already missing them for so long, so I don't want to cause even more trouble than I already am. There's probably a best way to do this where I live a good amount of time without sitting on them too long, and I think-"

"Omoi, stop." A says sternly. Omoi complies, and everyone looks to the Raikage. "I'm surprised to see you all here. What brings you to the Cloud?"

"I'm on a pilgrimage to gather the Villages best ninja on a mission to fight off boredom at Mt. Monkey! I'd love to have B, Omoi, or Yugito come along if you'd let them. I understand if you can only spare one of them. In the meantime we'll be training, and I hope to learn as much as I teach."

>>47653837
>B. You mean besides our match? I'm visiting all the major villages and picking up a ninja from each. A few minor ones too, and some regular vacation spots, and writing the whole thing off as both a joint training exercise and a village relations event, when it's really just a road trip. Speaking of, can I borrow Omoi or C for a month or three?

>>47653898
Ayy this sounds good. Way to word it anon. We are gonna roll up in the last like a group of monsters, it is gonna be fucking sweet.

>>47653898
>>47653837
Excellently said anon

>>47653898
>>47653927

You lay out your idea for the Raikage.

"I'm on a journey to gather ninja from every village and train on Kakazan!" you explain. "The objective is to all learn from each other and hopefully bring our villages closer together. Do you think you could spare Yugito, B, or Omoi?"

"Well that's an interesting little proposal you have there." A rubs his chin. "For now, B and Yugito are trying to ween Samehada off of B's chakra. Since Omoi will not part with those swords, we need to try and do what we can to maintain positive relations with the Mist. Anyway, that may take some time. This may however, be a good opportunity for Omoi. What do you think, Omoi?"

"It could be a good thing." Omoi says thoughtfully. "I think I could make a really good impression if I get skilled enough with the swords, and-"

"Good. That's settled. Maybe you can work something out while you're out and help save me the trouble." A interrupts. He sighs. "I'm starting to feel my age, you know. What with the new Kazekage and Tsuchikage, I'm the oldest Kage now. I wonder how long until I'll be thinking of retirement."

"You've still got a few years in you yet, Lord Raikage." Darui responds. "And don't forget you have us, too."

You spend a few more days relaxing in the Cloud, then leave with Omoi added to your group. You head down the isthmus, past the site of the war, and to the Land of Hot Springs, for a nice relaxing stop before moving on. You next travel to the Land of Rice, and the newly legitimately established Sound Village.

The village itself is still being built, and only a few buildings are even finished. It doesn't seem bad though, as there are ninja here and there hard at work. Nothing shady going on as far as you can see. You notice Aoba perched in a tree keeping a lookout, and he waves when he sees you.

>A.Find Orochimaru

>B.Look around more closely

>C.Things seem fine here, move on

>D.Other

>>47654304
>B.Look around more closely

Sage Mode.

Are any of our gathered allies sensors? Ask any of them if they notice anything unusual.

I want to believe Orochimaru is doing the right thing but...old habits die hard. Orochimaru may not think some things he's doing are extreme.

>>47654304
>>B.Look around more closely
Lets see what Aoba is doing. Would it be cheating if that when we train with these guys we take them all to monkey mountain and get Emna some new sages? Do you think the other summoned beasts would be pissed?

>B.Look around more closely

>>47654304
>B.Look around more closely

>>47654339
>>47654367
>>47654387

While you're here, it can't hurt to be safe. You enter Sage Mode and sense around.

You sense Orochimaru, Naruto, Karin, and a few other ninja in one of the finished buildings, as well as a more ninja below you moving around. You're suspicious at first, but you look around to find a clearly marked entrance to the underground facility, and watch as Sound ninja emerge with stacks and stacks of scrolls, bringing them in one of the finished buildings before heading back down. Dosu passes by, and explains that they're clearing the place out. There's nothing else particularly odd that you can sense, though you're sure that there is plenty of White Zetsu material here that Orochimaru is no doubt experimenting with.

You go to Aoba to hear what he has to say.

"It's a surprise to me too, but I guess he isn't doing anything bad." you're told. "Just moving all the materials out of the underground base, and then they plan to cave it in. They'll let me in the lab any time to check it out, and they've just been messing with that white goo so far. There's also a guy that has Mangekyou Sharingan implanted in him somehow, and we sounded the alarm, but Lord Itachi came here to check it out, and he was okay with it for some reason after meeting him. I don't know what was going through his head. Anyway, no real problems so far."

WHOEVER HE HIS, I WANT HIM ON OUR TEAM!

"Couldn't the underground parts be converted for something else, like a recreation center or mall? It seems a waste to cave in a perfectly good underground complex."

>>47654691

You figure that everything is under control here, and decide to move on.

After a long trek across the Land of Fire, you eventually reach the Land of Wind, and the desert.

It's the least enjoyable portion of your journey so far, but you finally arrive at the Village Hidden in the Sand. You make your way straight to the Kazekage's office to find Kankuro behind the desk, with a whole lot less makeup than he's usually wearing. Gaara and Temari are to either side of him. Rasa is also relaxing in the room, seemingly acclimating to his new arms.

"Hey, Kon. Welcome." Kankuro greets you. "Yeah, I'm Kazekage now. I hardly believe it myself. But, dad couldn't do it anymore, so I stepped up. So what's up with you? Quite the group you're with."

>A.Ask Kankuro something (Write-in)

>B.Tell Kankuro something (Write-in)

>C.Talk to someone else (Specify)

>D.Other

>>47654933
>>A.Ask Kankuro something (Write-in)
GIMME YO BROTHER I PROMISED HIM WE WOULD HANG OUT AND I HAVE COME TO COLLECT!

>>47654933
>A.Ask Kankuro something (Write-in)
I'm the new Hypekage! This is the Hypeforce! Gaara will join our travelling hype village for a few months!

>>47654991
>"Hey Gaara, wanna go on an adventure?
>"Not really."
>"TOO BAD!"

>>47655080
>Not Brokage
Lame.

>>47654933
>D.Other
Group pose.

Then tell him our plans about monkey mountain, the training for village prosperity and our desire to recruit Gaara so that he might make some friends.

>>47655103
>I didn't think of Brokage
I have failed you guys. I shall kill myself to save my honor.

>>47654933
>A.Ask Kankuro something (Write-in)
explain whats happening and ask if we can kidnap Gaara

>C.Talk to someone else (Specify)
Ask Rasa how he's doing, happy to finally be able to chill?

>>47654933
If Gaara isn't up for it, I'm sure Rasa wound like to come along and have a chance to fuck around with his new arms.

>>47655169
Than Roshi wont be the oldest one with us.

>>47655169
Fuck yes invite Rasa or Gaara

>>47655251
I'd love to bring both.

FATHER SON BONDING TIME!

>>47655205
Roshi could use another grumpy old fart in the group to balance out being with younger people.

>>47654933
Let's steal Gaara and Rasa. Might be fun for them to have a trip together to do some bonding, if Kankuro can handle their absence.

So we have a Sage, A swordsman of the mist, a bodyguard, a Former Host and now maybe a Kage... quite the traveling party. After about a month or so of travel we should be at monkey mountain and should be ok to head home.

>>47655343
Can't we just reverse summon everyone there?

>>47655343
The last takes place two years after the fourth shinobi war, By estimate we'd be gone for near a year and a half

>>47654991
>>47655080
>>47655133

You resist the urge to attempt a group pose on the fly, and tell Kankuro your idea.

"I'm traveling around with ninja from every village so we can train together." you explain. "We were hoping Gaara could join us to train, and maybe make some friends."

Gaara has his usual stoic face, but he looks to Roshi, and his expression lightens.

"Come on kid, it'll be a great time." Roshi insists. "Trust me."

After considering the offer in silence for a while, Gaara replies.

"Fine. I will join you." He says. "That is, if I can be given permission."

"Well, our village doesn't have the highest manpower." Kankuro sighs. "It'll be rough to have Gaara missing. But I can't say no to giving him this chance. We'll manage. Go ahead, Gaara. Have yourself a good time."

You see all of Gaara's family members smiling.

"Would you like to join us, Lord Rasa?" you ask. "I'm sure Roshi could use someone his age around instead of just us youngun's. And you could practice more with your arms."

"Really? Well, I'm not doing anything around here..." Rasa sighs. You can see him look to Gaara. "Alright. I'll come along. You could all use some supervision."

After everything is settled, your group of six makes to leave.

"So Kon, we have a group together now." Roshi says. "I say it's about time we get to training. What did you plan to work on?"

>How do you want to train?

This is it, guys. This is basically going to be when you determine what abilities adult Kon will have. You can throw out as many suggestions as you want, and we'll see what all we can do, because this is your last shot to get it in

You guys figure that out while I eat dinner

Back in a while

>>47655415
oh fuck i dunno

I say he trains and learns basically what each member is best at.

Then we suggest each person partners up with whoever is best at their weakest ability and start building with each other.

Ok we need to get an attack and defense of each nature down.

oh fug give me a minute to think shit up

We have some of the best of the best gathered here, I say as part of training we focus on combinations and investigations. With all of the different perspectives and ideas I am sure the group can come up with some kick ass shit

>>47655415
First we work on that flame control jutsu with Roshi, let's get these boys ready to meet the secret mvps up in monkey mountain. Let's try to motivate Omoi since he seems like kind of a slacker. Finally we will take them to monkey mountain to seee if they can become sages and go through the same training we did. Nature chakra in gaara's sand and Omoi's lightning swords would be devastating. NO MATTER WHAT we need to come up with a super fucking hot team ultimate.

>>47655415
Holy shit we actually got Rasa to come along. Sweet. Here are my suggestions.

>Learn one-handed signs for our Impact jutsu
>Learn some jutsu of all the basic elements
>Get some replacement bracers for Flying Wind God
>Learn how to fly again like we did in the Kaguya battle.

>Captcha was ice cream
Also get some ice cream.

>>47655415
Master as much jutsu as we can. Also, start working on Kenjutsu-- we should probably start working on our skills with weapons in general, too like swords and max/improve as many of our abilities as possible.

So basically Jutsu/Weapons+Kenjutsu/Stats

>>47655415
Try to achieve the same level of competence we had when we were given the First's power boost.

>>47655415
>Convert the Beanie into a forehead protector and start wearing it as a part of our timeskip outfit.

Ok as far as Kon is conserned I suggest the following from each.

I suggest we develop our own forbidden Jutsu.

>Forbidden Art: Sage Reincarnation
Kon stores huge amounts of nature chakra within his body in 4 seals. Everytimes Kon's Chakra or life force drops to critical levels or stops the seal will rupture flooding his body with Chakra, reinvigorating him and healing any damage done.

However this jutsu can be negated if the Chakra pathways are blocked or if they are destroyed before use. They also emit a huge chakra signature making Kon very visible to sensor nin.

>Make kakuzu proud

>>47655607
God that so looks like a free-form rp Naruto jutsu alright.

>>47655549
those are a big thing, especially the use of 1 handed seals, try to teach the others too.

>>47655415
ALRIGHT! FIRST OFF!

Everyone should have mastery of each element by the time we're done, with a solid repetoire of jutsu for each release. Yes, that means you Gaara.

After that, working on existing techniques! Chojiro and Omoi work together on figuring out the nuances of their respective swords, with Kon, Roshi, and Gaara helping out. Additionally, Roshi's lava release, Kon's Impact Release, and Gaara's sand techniques all get a nice, long look from all parties involved. No secrets in this group. Figure out ways to strengthen Kon's barriers, Beam attacks, and Nebula Sphere, and figure out new applications for it. Figure out what's up with his release, anyways, and do the same for Gaara and Roshi.

After that, get into more esoteric things. Figure out the Flying Wind God, work on Impact-based flight, and basically do whatever for whoever. Whatever sort of crazy ideas people have, work on those, figure out what works and what doesn't and refine the former. Come out with something totally unexpected.

Throughout it all, Rasa. He's retired right now. His job is to tutor everyone on the various intricacies of politics and history, things he's learned about the ninja world through years of politicking.

>>47655623
going for the Fate/stay Beserker vibe.

>>47655689
>For Kon
-Impact/winf based Flight
-Git crazy gud with FWG
-Learn how to focus our Heavenly lance so we can use it like a damned colossus beam
-Impact Body Flicker, we gotta race the Raikage and win
-1 handed seals and any basic element techniques we can.
-Keep FTG kunai close at all times

>Gaara
-Get along with daddy
-Combo elements with his sand since it moves of its own will
-Work with Kon to see if he can naturally gather sage chakra (Tanuki Sage, the first of his kind)

>Rasa
-Get along with Sonny
-Learn wood release so he can craft puppets for his other some and regrow limbs for himself
-Learn Wood Jutsu so he can grow an oasis in the village

>Chojiro
-train together with Omoi
-More natures for you
-See if his general social skills pick up/ confidence

>Omoi
-Train with Chojiro
-More natures

>Roshi
-Monkey sage for you


anyone more ideas, other than us all traveling together and having a grand old time.

>>47655607
This is cool.

Good lord is this the dawn of the Combined Shinobi Black OPs unit? The beginning of the Ninja Rainbow 6?

>>47655870
>Kon breach and Clear
>Omoi dives in to flashbang
>Gaara sand Riotshields
>Roshi Lava Traps
>Chojiro hacking up those who run
>Rasa talks up to the Hostage "Hello, i'm ANBU

>>47655870
But what is our ultimate jutsu, anon?

>>47655912
Ninshu Spaghetti

>>47655936
ANON, THE CRINGE.... IT'S TOO STRONG!!!!!

This is a nice set up, it's a long trip to monkey mountain. Once there we can all split up and depard, Omoi and Chojiro can leave together head east, Garra and his dad can head back together for father/son time and Kon can teleport back to the leaf?

>>47655958
Nah, we'll go back with Roshi to the stone to see our waifu.

>>47655974
ok we stop on the way back at the stone (Roshi wants to stay behind for a bit) We then bang Kuro on the desk, teasing her about her womb being ours

File: Spoiler Image (335 KB, 550x700)

335 KB PNG

>>47655987

>>47655987
That's when Tenten poofs in to try to make up with Kon.

>>47656034
And then we have a three way Ninshu session! It's the obvious best choice.

>>47656034
That would be Kon's luck, assuming she don't instantly pass out from blood nose before she can talk

Part of me thinks it'd be more fun if we have no idea what we learn, let Laze build the character a bit. All we all really deffs want to the 1 handed seals and flight. Maybe a combo with lightning on one hand and wind in the other, earn our "storm" nickname

>>47656062
I'm glad that most of the hostilities with ninshu have passed and now it's just a big meme.

>>47656121
Memes are how we deal with tragedy nowadays.

>>47655415
I want to see if Kon can be the first ninja to ever be able to use jutsu without making handsigns, can he get to that level of skill? The second could almost do it.

>>47656166
How do we deal with tragic memes?

>>47656313
Mental hand signs.

It's all in the mind anyway.

We should work on non-verbal justsu as well.

That'd really help with the ninja sneakiness.

Basically just stand there and stare at someone and just cause people to blow up.

>>47656313
I think we should get to that level with our shield, have some kind of seal on us like lady tsunade, but instead of keeping us young its a constant force field building up over time. Eventually it'll deplete but not for ages as it endlessly charging until we take hits.

>>47655415
I wanna be able to fire off a Heavenly Lance with finger guns!

>>47656358
Heavenly Revolver?

>>47656358
Don't you mean SPIRIT GUUUUUUUUUUUUN?

>>47656349
>>47656313
>>47656339
>>47656358
>>47656412

Lets fucking do it, Sealess shields and lances. "Quick Draw Kon", "Twitchy Trigger" Kon since we have two cases of FF

>>47656436
I say we figure out a way to make more arms just to shoot more guns.

Impact Hands!

Can we master Yin and Yang Jutsus at their cores?

Figure out how to use Ninshu in conjunction with our Sage Mode to scan and read the hearts of people remotely.

Dare I say we actually learn how to use shadow/impact clones?

>>47656713
Omoi knows shadow clone jutsu! Finally we can learn this most forbidden of all fruits.

>>47656748
I say we learn to make a clone of each element, and then figure out how to add senjutsu through each of them to see which type of clone collects sage chakra the best.

As the group travels to Kakazan, you lay out everything you want to work on.

Omoi and Chojuro will expand their elemental repertoire while practicing more with their swords. You, Gaara, and Roshi will all try to enhance your advanced natures, while Rasa will work on being able to use Wood Release. Through all of this, you hope to learn more jutsu, try to master one handed seals, and have everyone practice making some combination techniques. The thought also crosses your mind to see if any of your allies can utilize Nature chakra.

It takes quite some time to reach it, but the group eventually arrives at Kakazan. The monkeys are very surprised that you brought a group of foreign ninja here, but at your insistence, they welcome the others.

Roshi takes the time to visit Son Goku, and they chat for a long while. While Son Goku has no intention of leaving, it seems that he and his former jinchuuriki are on good terms.

Enma helps the others test their aptitude for Nature chakra, and Roshi proves to be fairly compatible. Gaara also manages to utilize it a bit, but the others prove unable.

Rasa spends his training on learning to use Wood Release. It takes him quite a long time, but he eventually manages. He can't do anything crazy like you saw from the First, or even Tenzo, but he can manipulate and shape wood to a decent degree.

Chojuro and Omoi really hit it off, and spend most of their time sparring. Their swordplay improves to incredible levels, and they exchange several Water and Lightning jutsu.

After a ton of practice, you manage to achieve the same level of competence at flight that you used during the Kaguya fight. You also work with Roshi to create that flame manipulation jutsu. It's tough work, but the two of you eventually manage. You can move flames around much like Sasuke does his Amaterasu, but it gets harder and harder the greater volume of fire you exert it on.

>Continued

>>47655427
Laze, do you want a specific "this is what we want to do" or a more general list of priorities?

General priorities:
1) Expand our jutsu repertoire, because we only know like five or so techniques that aren't Impact-based. Hell, we barely know any jutsu in the first place. It's a wonder we even function as a ninja.
2) Create some kind of bullshit Wind-Lightning technique. We use Impact a lot, but rarely do we use either Wind or Lightning.
3) get dem stats boiiiiiiii

>>47656828

You really want to focus on one handed seals, so you have the whole group practice often. Eventually, everyone is using one handed seals of at least their primary element, and you manage to use most of your Impact jutsu one handed as well.

Gaara and his father spend a lot of time together, and through practice, they figure out how to augment their Magnet Release attacks with Lightning attacks. Gaara's ability to use Nature chakra is minor, but even that is enough to make his attacks that much more devastating. Roshi on the other hand, proves to be very competent with Nature chakra, and his Lava jutsu become incredibly powerful.

A good portion of your time is taken up to replicate the Flying Wind God seals. You manage to do so, but only after much trial and error.

By the end of your training, all of you are a whole lot stronger, you all know many more jutsu, and your combination attacks are very effective. The group has grown a great deal closer in general.

Eventually, the time comes to part. You all enjoyed the time you spent training together, but you have to return to your villages sometime. Everyone thanks the monkeys for their hospitality, then leaves the mountain.

>A.Go home to the Leaf

>B.Accompany Roshi to the Stone

>C.Go somewhere else (Specify)

>D.Other

So you guys had time to learn a ton of jutsu, and I'm not even going to bother making a list. You just know a shit ton now. If it's a fairly standard jutsu, assume you could have learned it

>>47656854
>B.Accompany Roshi to the Stone
Gotta fuck Kurotsuchi before we go back home.

>>47656854
>>A.Go home to the Leaf
I really wanna check n on Kuro but we've been gone quite a while we need to see how things are at home.

>>47656854
>A.Go home to the Leaf
Loyalty to home first. Stone soon after.

>>47656854
>>B.Accompany Roshi to the Stone
From leaving the leaf gathering everybody to training to right now how long have we been gone for?

Bang Kuro then fly away, when we return make sure we are flying, bitches love people who can fly, I hope it looks like we ride a cloud

on a serious note we should ask her for advice about Tenten, i mean it.

>>47656828
>Omoi isn't nature compatible
I am extremely disappointed that there will be no white haired monkey sage.

>>47656939
I feel you anon

>>47656854
It's home time.

>>47656854
>A.Go home to the Leaf
We can fuck Kurotsuchi AFTER we finish our trip. Village first.

>>47656939
No we are going to say hi to the NotWife
No Big deal the Leaf will be there after we impregnate her

How long have we been gone anyways?

>>47656854
>A

>>47656959
I'm glad him and Chojuro basically became bros.

The Mist and Cloud Village should really think about opening a bigger alliance between the two. Their shinobis have much in common skill sets but just different enough in their specializations to make them very compatible.

>>47656999
>GO on a long massive trip
>Go to stone first instead of leaf
>Everyone, in all villages assume stone is more our home than the leaf.

>>47656958
this is me and im changing to going home to the Leaf
>A

>>47657015
Nah, we're just saying hi to Kurotsuchi before we settle down in the Leaf and get back to work. We probably won't have time afterwords to go visit her, and it's already been a few months BEFORE the road trip since we met.

>>47656939
Fine..ok your right

>>47656929
Changing my vote to head back to.
>A.Go home to the Leaf

>>47656854
>>A.Go home to the Leaf

>>47657015
Alright you have convinced me! Let's go back to the leaf first. I wasn't thinking with my head.

I wanna reverse summon Kon with Tenten's seal and pop in on her at the worst possible time.

Think that'd be possible?

This is amazing Anon's are not thinking with Waifu's, they are using their brains, shits crazy man

>>47657046
She took her seal off us bro.


>>47657054
we can hope.

>>47657059
It hurt when that happened

>>47657059
I thought we took it back. My mistake.

>>47657072
we took the kunai so she could get to us if she ever needed too.

I wonder if Kuro and Tenten did anything while we were gone

>>47657085
Kuro is probably pissed we did that whole speech and then left for bro mountain.

You heavily consider swinging by the Stone, since you didn't visit it on your tour before, but you decide that you've been away from the Leaf long enough. You'll get another chance to check in soon.

You tell Roshi to say as much to Kurotsuchi for you, then head off for the Leaf.

It's been over one year since you left, and the opportunity to train and see the world was quite something. However, you'll be glad to finally see everyone again.

As you draw near the Leaf village, you glance up at the full moon, shining particularly brightly this night. It gives you a bit of an ominous feeling, but you ignore it.

You're finally home after so long, and nothing will bring you down right now.

>End of Chapter 88

Twitter is @LazeQM

Okay guys, here's the deal. I have annual training starting this weekend, and I have to get ready. Not to mention, I haven't actually watched The Last yet, so that needs to happen before the next time I run. So I will be taking one last break. My AT runs until the 24th, so soon after that is when I should run again, and it should be a straight run to the end, done in no more than a week. Sorry this one was so short and uneventful, but I admit it was just to set up

So yeah, like three week break, guys

>>47657248
top kik

>>47657269
>It gives you a bit of an ominous feeling, but you ignore it.
aha

>>47657269
No problem with the break.

I feel like we got a lot done!

>>47657269
Thanks for running Laze, anything intresting happen while we were gone?

Kuro or Tenten had any developments? Are even talked to one another?

>>47657269
Did our stats go up at all? Do we finally have more points than kakashi? Did you feel like giving to many people nature chakra would be op? Were there secret rolls for it?

>>47657269
Christ dude, why can't you just run before the weekend then? These long intervals are really breaking my balls.

>>47657291
That's probably just cause I skipped around so much

>>47657304
A few things have happened, you'll get filled in, don't worry

>>47657307
Probably. I might touch them up before I run again

Maybe

Yes

No

>>47657316
Like I said, I haven't even seen The Last yet, plus I have stuff I need to do that I've put off long enough anyway. Sorry

How long were we away Laze?

>>47657369
Are Ino and Haku married yet?
Is Tamaki preggers with Kiba's puppers?
Has Sausage finally got with a grill?
Did we fly in like a boss?
Tenten?

>>47657501
Just a bit over a year

>>47657504
Yes

Kid is born already, they wasted no time

Not yet

Sure

You'll find out

>>47657539
But who is the girl? Hinata or Sakura? This is honestly one of the biggest things for me

>>47657539

Panic is go.

>>47657566
That will become clear

>>47657577
It's not that bad at least I don't think so, you might feel different

>>47657587
Sorry Laze you can no longer be trusted when it comes to girls. I prescribe 100 poor quality animes so you know how they work.

>>47657608
I could never be trusted when it came to girls

>>47657539
Is it a boy or girl?
How are Neji and Hanabi? They got a Hapsburg baby yet?
What has Hinata been up to?
Just tell us goddammit! Three weeks is too fucking much!

>>47657617
Neither could we.

>>47657617
I fear for when we have to pick our PMD partner and everyone goes for a female Ralts/whatever and we try to waifu it when we're not of the same egg group.

>>47657608
meanie

>>47657587
Did Itachi mind us been gone that long....did we even ask come to think of it. What other minor places did we go to? any funny events?

>>47657618
Boy, named Kegawa

They're doing alright. No

Getting back into normal ninja stuff

>>47657639
Itachi knew about it, you told him. I'm sure there were

>>47657685
So when it comes to the "last" movie, will there be a little more of a time skip?

>>47657703
The Last will be starting as soon as the next thread does. You are basically at it now

>>47657722
Are we wearing the beanie now? If not I vote to put our forehead protector in it.

>>47657722
>Double Checked
Have a great break Laze and see ya next time. Get Hype

>>47657737
If you want to be wearing it, that's cool with me. I could see it

>>47657752
I see him wearing that with the beginnings of facial hair since you know he has been on a mountain for nearly a year.

Tenten/Kon reunion when?

So you guys are set on being Chinese Electric Batman, I see

>>47657858
Probably soon...ish

>>47657884
Make sure that either Kiba or Sasuke comment on the fact that we finally started wearing the damn thing.

>>47657884
Now now Laze, Chinese IMPACT Batman. I think it's safe to say Kon didn't take what happened to well either

My buthole is so hype. What anime is that from? I remember saying he's a character from darker than black?

>>47657958
Yup Darker than Black, the Two seasons have pretty diffrent vibes but it's good stuff. The lead reminds me of Kon a little to much

>>47657971
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

>>47657992
Well I think good, but hopefully our girl issues dont end the same way

>>47657999
I remember seeing only the first episode. Pretty sure he killed a girl in it. What does that mean for us?

Hopfully we won't take that path
The path of a Shinobi eliminating other Shinobi specificly, Tracking and killing, a Hunter Nin of the Leaf
