Alright anons, remember lets not reveal Stellar right out of the gate. Its our ace and the longer we hold it in the tournament the less time our opponents have to think up a counter. Not saying don't use it just wait for a good moment for the reveal

Before we begin fully, some minor housekeeping things-

One, the pastebin has been updated for the curious. Two, there is still the matter of the name of the new stellar technique, though I'll likely just gather the passable ones from before and put it to vote.

3rd, some of you were correct in remembering 3/5 Stellar Mastery was needed for Phoenix Flower- so to save time, I've added Stellar Phoenix Flower where it belongs!

While the Phoenix Flower Technique by itself is mainly used for utility, distraction or deception with it's flames, Stellar Phoenix Flower's fireballs are not only a lovely shade of blue- they are also hotter, and create a pretty little explosion when ruptured!

Truly a marvel.

Now, back to your regularly schedule faggotry.

So we have music lined up for our entrance into the stadium yeah?

>>599359
I'm rotating through them until drawfag picks one he likes. #38 still hasn't died, so my options are rather limited after today.

>>599405

Thanks Wargle!

>>599414

Fair enough.

Skub rules!

>>599391

You might wanna rethink that.

>>599405
Stellar Release: Starlight Express

Does rabbit contract contain hares or is that some whole other thing?

>>599425
Fuck you!

>>599433
I hate the things you like.

>>599391
Let's just say, depends who we have to fight. We'll use it only when we need it, in true animu style.

I am friends with people to whom you are not well liked.

Reminding everyone even if we don't want the moon bunnies we should still go too rescue Tonrei before he looses it and wants to crash this moon with no survivors.

>>599463

Metagaming.

Also no.

>>599469
Why? Kaguya told us there is a war orphan who needs our help out there?

>>599469
We do actually know he's there, and could probably use some rescueing. So less metagaming than you might think.

>>599463
I kind of like them, and they would be an interesting summon.

>>599486
Not lewd enough anon

Stellar Release: Climax

>>599479
>>599480

Forgot about that.

Also, we don't know if that's who she's talking about or if it's someone else.

>>599491

No.

>>599486
I'm down for big bang

>>599491
no

>>599486

Shining Ray, Starlight Express or Starlight Lance.

>>599479
I forgot about the later arcs of naruto because they're shit, but I've read this quest. I'm therefore an unbiased source with Tsuki's perspective.

The bunnies had it coming, and we're not poking the mad deceitful godess thing.

Im still a fan of Solar Beam, but how about "Stream of Starlight" because thats exactly what it is.

Stellar Phoenix Flower becomes Stellar Release: Rapid Flash

Our new attack is Stellar Release: White Blast

>Hinata
>Taijutsu: 4.0
>Nori
>Speed: 4.0
HOLY JESUS! We're going to have to go full nuclear on our teammates or we're gonna get shrekt. Nori is as fast as us in Afterglow without having to spend the chakra, and Hinata is some sort of human blender. Our only hope is to run away and spam ninjutsu, which is also coincidentally our strategy against Gaara and Sasuke. All our fights are going to look about the same, so both in terms of enemy ninja and possible clients we have to make sure it's a DAMN SPECTACULAR PERFORMANCE!

>>599405
>>599486
Stellar Realese: Streaking Star or Stellar Realeae: Big Bang are the only real options here

>>599507
>The bunnies had it coming, and we're not poking the mad deceitful godess thing.

I fully agree.

>>599509
>>599510

Stellar Phoenix Flower --------> Stellar Release: Homing Heat ?

I still like Solar Beam, though.

>>599512

Mhmm.

>>599512
>Nori has an intelligence of 1.5
If we focus on tricking her into a trap we'll be fine

>Tsuki almost caught up with Ebisu.
Died for our sins and all but uh, they kinda dropped the ball with that initial assignment.

>>599525

He's specialized in teaching people ninja skills.

>>599521
>>599510
>Not Stellar Release: Blooming Flower
Come on guys.

>>599534
Not everything needs to be an sex joke.

>>599512
>dumping INT and GEN
Nori's a goddamn munchkin.

Whats with all the bunny hate? Kaguya is the one who tried to bluff us. The Bunnies have told nothing but the truth as far as they know? (sure we know OOC they are wrong, but they don't know that). We should look into Tonrei either way because hey maybe he can tell us about that super weapon? Dad may like to hear how it's powered. That and you know save the guy who is literally last man standing on the moon before he goes insane from loneliness.

>>599540
Yeah but come on
Blooming Flower is pretty good

>>599547
She just didn't want to see us hurting anon, plus she's probably our great great great etc grandma at SOME point on the family tree so eh close enough.

>>599556
Not really. Sounds more like a taijutsu move than ninjutsu. Leaf Hurricane, Hidden Lotus are taijutsu moves so maybe use that for Hinata?

>>599545
Nori is asking to be wreaked is what you mean. Dumb as dirt and gullible are not positive traits in the ninja world.

>>599564
EVENTUALLY we should probably put some work into an afterglow-focused taijutsu style, it could go into that.

>>599575
Fuck if we knew any genjutsu Nori would be no contest.

>>599582
*cough* swords *cough*

With stellar we can literally turn the Kiba into lightsabers

>>599585
Im really disappointed we have not even mastered a few basic genjutsu. We have the stat and natural affinity for it.

>>599575
To be fair, she'll almost always be in danger only when she's with us, so it should work pretty well in practice. We're (+ Itachi) the brains and/or Genjutsu dispeller, and Nori is the barbarian peasant who does the rough and tumble and keeps our brutish enemies at a distance.

The evening skyline of Konohagakure, against the backdrop of the setting sun, is the first truly welcome sight to greet your tired eyes since leaving your muddy training ground.

Only another full day until the exams begin- and part of you doesn’t feel quite ready. There was more, so much more you could’ve learned! But, looking back, you still feel like many things were accomplished at that muddy field.

A hot shower, though, would’ve been nice- and is among the top of your immediate concerns.

Saying as such, your immediate goals bring a smile to Itachi-sensei’s face.

“Go on, go visit your family, enjoy yourself for the evening. Though, you might want to take the long way home- the first round matches of the exams should be posted. Might want to start crafting your strategy now- it’s more time than you’ll have for some of your later fights.

He’s right, of course- it isn’t even really a question. If they were posted this morning, those still in town would likely already be forming plans of attack- and you don’t want to be left behind.

You turn to take off- only for Itachi to follow behind.
“Well, I’m curious as well. I never said I wouldn’t tag along!” he says with a somewhat sheepish smile.

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

The two of you quickly make your way to the arena, where a faint crowd still surrounds the massive scroll displaying the scheduled bouts of the final round of the exams.


….Is this some kind of joke?!

It's not for nothing. It ALSO HELPS AGAINST REGULAR GENJUTSU YOU FUCKING IDIOTS.

>>599599
>>599603
And Orochimaru is going to pull shit so we most likely won't even get to fight him

>>599605
Nori... really isn't our rival. I don't think we particularly don't want to lose to her to a greater degree than anyone else on the list.

>>599610

Plus, it's a rare opportunity to get anti-Sharingan training.

>>599599
>not believing we will make it to the finals
>not realizing sauce-ki will clean house in his bracket

>>599593
God damn it.
Well it'll be useful in the finals I guess.
Pummel ALL the things
Maybe not Gaara. Gaara a cute after all.

>>599610
who in these brackets uses genjutsu?

>>599610
And thats totally going to be useful against anyone in our bracket full of taijutsu/ninjutsu specialists. Hell most ninjas in general don't use genjutsu

>>599615
More then anything I think the Konoha Crush is going to happen and interrupt our fight with Gaara

>>599620

Sasuke, Shikamaru, possibly Sai.

>>599593
There goes hiding the release. our first match is against someone who already knows about it, and we'll have to pull all the stops out against her. I just realized I know NOTHING about Sai. Hinata vs Gaara is gonna be interesting!

Shino and Fuu better hook up

>>599629
Shikimaru doesn't, Sausage is speced for Tai, and Sai uses his dumb paintings

>>599629
Shikamaru hadn't displayed any tendency towards it at this point in canon. Don't see why that would change.

>>599629
Sai's Ink Constructs are probably hilariously weak to our fire jutsus, even moreso on the stellar ones. He's not that great.

>>599629
>Sasuke
I don't know about that actually. I barely recall him using genjutsu in canon pre-shippuden. And this Sasuke has been trained by Guy.

ah well

I kinda always wanted Tsuki to kick Nori's ass anyway

>>599641
>>599640
>>599638
>>599642

Sai might have some genjutsu. He's a weird one.

Shikamaru probably has a few.

Plus Sasuke's still got the Sharingan.

>>599638
>>599641
While that's sai's preference I'm pretty sure he can pull out something else if it's clear its a bad situation, given he's adopted by kakashi.

>>599635
Well against sai we just make it rain, turn his ink too mush and burn him. Pretty straight forward.

Nori I say we go for the KO by palming each side of her head. Gotta watch out for the fox juice. Maybe we buy a really strong sleeping poison? Tranquiliser her?

>>599638
So.
Genjutsu- Shadowy Yin Release copy stuff
Summons via ink (fire? STELLAR?)
and Taijutsu with a side of SHARINGAN

>>599646
You would THINK Shikamaru would have a few but then he never displayed any even when it would be useful at this point in canon and again don't see why that should have particularly changed.

>>599648
Nori we just have to trick and have her fall into a trap

We can use one of our swords as a lightning rod and zap her when she stands over it

How to beat Nori though? Maybe ask her a difficult sum and knock her out when she's gone cross-eyed?

Still think it's a bit fucked our entire team is on one side of the bracket. Hell two matches apart and our entire team is out. Seriously the fuck Minato!

>>599657
>Threaten to buy out and close Ichiraku Ramen if she doesn't stand down.

min-maxers pls go

>>599657
I think we should ask dad for some poison grenades. We can then at least drop some DoTs on her. If she is in too much pain or too angry the fox comes out and that shit aint cool. That happens we loose.

Thats why I suggest Poison clouds and gear from dad. Put the Foxy Lady to sleep

Nori obviously got training from her dad. We can expect the FTG (probably) as well as seals from Kushina. And Minato. Both are badass at seals.

She's effectively a giant tank that will bring us down if we get too close and who will destroy everything if we just leave her alone. And also may or may not be capable of teleporting. Luckily, this is what we'll be good at.

Fill the arena with fire and she'll stop any sort of long-term plan. Then we just cook her with more focused attacks.

>>599657
Cover the field in Kunai and then let out one of our lightning jutsus and it should create a shock zone

>>599661
.....that...that is an option

If the no-talent MC of boruto quest can get through chunin exams filled to the brim with special snowflakes....

our supernova-hurling, bunny whispering, behelit holding, billionaire's daughter with anti-sharingan training and legendary swords should be just fine.

>>599678
>legendary swords
Nope, can't use those.

>>599678

But MiniseriesAnon and Wargle run their quests pretty differently.

Not saying you're wrong, but I'm also not gonna instantly agree with you on that.

>>599661
Why that's just wasteful.

We'd turn it into our live in Personal ramen source.

>>599678
>when you accidentally left trips out for harambe

I'm 100% behind threatening to buy out and demolish ichiraku to clear the first round

>>599678
We explicitly aren't allowed to use them during exams.
I might be remembering wrong but I think we only get them back if we pass

>>599678
Except the MC in that avoided the person that hard countered and faced someone with a brain smaller than Nori's in the finals.

>>599671
>Expect the flying thunder god
I... don't think Nori is at the point where Minato would TRUST HER with the flying thunder god?

Appropriate.

>>599690
We can't actually do that! Do you have any idea how many ninjas would be out for our blood if we were the ones who destroyed ichiraku?

Do you really want to try and play dirty here anon?

We don't need to actually be willing to do it. We just need Nori to BELIEVE we're willing to do it. And as previously noted... she's kind of dumb.

>>599704
>>599687

Nobody said we actually would.
But we could, and we don't react well to
...Loss. Nori knows that.

We're liable to do all manner of crazy thing! Like go through with it!

>>599676
No, just someone that's annoyed by people that got pissed that we apparently 'wasted' a week of training on something that doesn't immediately benefit us.

>>599709
We don't need Summons for this.

>>599695
>>599710
Even if she doesn't have it, she's still got bullshit bijuu speed. We'll still have to cook everything and provoke her into charging us.

volcano's anon, super heated toxic gasses and all sorts of nasty poisonous shit in those. plus if we can make a flammable poison we could do a poison cloud then set it alight as a surprise move.

that said it's waaaay to late to work something like that in cause that'd require some practice and research.

Itachi clicks his tongue audibly next to you.

“The Lord Fourth… has really outdone himself, this time. Though I think he’s going to be rather surprised with how it plays out.”

You shoot him an inquisitive look, and he explains further.

“Look at these brackets, Tsuki. If Nori was to beat you, she would likely go up against some of the most difficult opponents in the exam, back to back- including the Kazekage’s own son. He either has unbreakable faith in his daughter- or is looking for her to reveal something.”

Nori, and not you? You almost laugh out loud.

Catching your expression, Itachi gives you a quick *thwip!* on the ear, causing you to sulk at him aggressively.

“Nori isn’t to underestimated, Tsuki. From our perspective, it was much more likely that something Nori did chased Orochimaru off during your encounter- and her behavior was certainly suspicious. While I suspected you were the likely cause, Minato believe that his daughter was hiding a talent from him in order to skip out on further training.” he says.

“He was so sure of it, in fact, he bet me dinner on it. I am getting rather famished…”

Both of your stomachs growl in unison- and your teacher laughs while you try to hide your embarrassment.

“Go eat, Tsuki. Rest up, and make your plans. These next few days are going to be rough.”

He gives that reassuring smile, and you can’t help but feel a bit better about it- though you really should get to work…

You wave goodbye to Itachi and begin the trek back to the Norihime Manor.

>>599710
Rasengan is S-Class difficulty and she has shit chakra control due to the nine tails. It tooks naruto months to learn.
No way she knows it.

>>599725
Aren't we getting an upgrade for afterglow? We might be faster than her after that.

>>599722
I'm up for going out with Gaara anyway. It was so sweet, how he sacrificed that guy to us.

Is it too late to learn a simple genjutsu? Remember Jinchuurikis are shit at dispelling gen. Like at the start remember how Ebisu was no-selling Nori that palm to the face shit? Is it too late to learn that? Seriously that genjutsu stat we have should be useful for something.

I'm fine with it too, I'm sure he'll turn traitor and take our name if were the first person to ever show him love, and that means more tailed beasts for Konoha

Ok we need to talk too Danzo, get him too tell us all he knows of Nori and how too beat her. He's love his "Protoge" to beat the daughter of the cowardly forth

Be pretty hilarious that every generation of Norihime has a spouse from outside Konoha.

>>599745
I'm pretty sure there is some academy basic shit everyone knows.

Stellar Upgrade soon I hope.

>>599738
Man now I actively want to tell Minato about stellar release beforehand. Just so he knows exactly how he fucked up going into things.

>>599741
we equal her in speed with afterglow active iirc.

>>599754
we literally just got a stellar upgrade. Before we do so again we will need to do a quest chain to calm the storm within us.

>>599741
>Aren't we getting an upgrade for afterglow? We might be faster than her after that.
I'd imagine the Afterglow upgrade is chakra rockets, which are actually TOO FAST! We might be better off trying to reduce the cost instead.

>>599754
You'd think so (how would they even rate genjutsu otherwise) but there's never any demonstration of it.

>>599759
No I mean that Wargle said at 3/5 we get to upgrade a Stellar jutsu.

>>599759
Looks like we need to go find uncle Iroh or some sun dragons

>>599761
more likly we achieve Quicksilver Lite.

>>599759
sound's like something that might dove tail with sage training... either way, i'd be up for learning more utility stuff before we go super hard on stellar again.

>>599753
>>599741
Ah hey, I'm serious here.
Are we doing this?

>>599766
Avengers or Xmen?

>>599764
Good point anon I stand corrected.....It better be afterglow

>>599772
Xmen....atleast movie wise. Comic wise ill have to think on it

>>599771
It'd be interesting but o doubt others would go for it.

>>599764
oooh... I remember that too, did we already pick or was that left up in the air? still only things I can think of that we could do to afterglow is reduce the chakra cost or improve the boosts even more, we did improve stamina so i'd be partial to bigger boosts vs lowered cost...

>>599738
Just how much stat boost does Nori's kyuubi cloak give?

>>599766
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzmpl6783Hs

Nah, once we reveal our inner power we'll likely have suitors coming for us. lets see who is keen

>>599788
Doesn't mean we can't go on a date with him

>>599786
We can even make the goggles with antigenjutsu lenses like Deidera has!

>>599788
>>599771
>>599780
No one is good enough for Tsuki, she's need someone out of this world. Luckily there is one option.

>>599790
hell, just fit them into the mask we made.

>>599794
I would support that but lets see his mental state when we rescue him first.

Think of all this stuff he could give dad! plus we get a second secret lair

>>599795
...ROOT ANBU Quicksilver.....

>>599799
Any man who turns down a moon base is no man at all.

>>599771
Let's play it by ear. I'm pretty up for it if it seems feasible.

My prospects for Tsuki are

>Sauce seems actually pretty cool in this universe (that said I'm not sure Tsuki likes his Guy attitude)
>[s]Hinata[/s]
>Shikamaru

>>599806
Tonrei: I want to marry your daughter Yoru
Yoru: I'm affraid not, we must keep our options open
Tonrei: In exchange for her hand ill give you a moon base and power that ship of yours
Yoru:...one moment please
Tsuki: Dad why have you tied me up? oh hey Tonrei whats happening

>>599811
Eh. How do you strikethrough on /tg/?

>>599811

Those are good, except for Hinata.

As long as we don't give Neji a chance, unless/until he gets more human,

>>599816
Don't forget the giant pile of interdimensional alien superscience.

>>599816
heh that's good. But I'm not in the mood for Husbandos just yet.
Itachi

>>599811
Is it bad that i'm in love with the idea of cuckolding Sauce for his brother

>>599818
im actually ok with Neji too once he develops more

>>599827

If that happens, then we can give him a chance.

Until then, ignore that cunt.

you don't understand anons

you don't go to the husbandos
the husbandos go to you

>>599825
Oh shit, yeah. I forgot the best one.

It's going to turn out that Itachi is using his Sharingan for lewd goings on with random kunoichi already though. Count on it.

>>599818
I think you meant Hinata is the only good one.

>>599833
OH please YES!!!

Side Note. I say we confront the Bunny/Cuthulu
https://youtu.be/oXqTPV8FhYU?t=24
because i'm still voting for them just to turn them from Kaguya over time and become the new moon queen.

>>599833
I can already see Tsuki's hand imprint on Itachi's face.

>>599839
With time anon, but not isn't it.

Reminder that neji isn't just as asshole, he's also an asshole that decided to follow up flirting with us by picking on our teammate becayse surely that wouldn't make a bad impression.

>>599849

He also tried killing Hinata.

>>599849
He just needs to be knocked down pegged

>>599849
>Neji is taking the place of Sauce in this story
>Runs off to join paedosnake
>"Hands up who's going to go rescue Neji"
>Everyone sits on their hands

>>599855
Allegedly.

Your family home is… crowded.

Not to say you don’t have room for the orchestra your father hired- you do. But with all of the training you had been doing, it was easy to forget such a request… but, as usual, Yoru Norihime didn’t forget.

Thankfully, Maru is nearby to field the performers, and welcome you home.

“Tsuki-dono! Welcome home! Dinner will be in an hour’s time, I apologize- Master Yoru failed to inform us before he left that we would be expecting these guests…. So, as such, I’m rather-”

There is a dull roar from within the dining hall, at Maru’s hair nearly stands on end.

“-excuse me one moment, Tsuki-dono. Our guests seem to have forgotten themselves….”

Your First Maid walks with purpose towards the dining hall, before her yelling adds even further to the commotion.

You smile faintly- best to leave her to her work. She’ll fetch you when dinner is to be served. The fact that Father wasn’t here to greet you himself means he likely hasn’t returned from the capital yet- and merely sent the orchestra on ahead. Your anger at him has dulled somewhat over the past month- and him keeping his promise hasn’t hurt. Though, you wonder…

You eagerly make your way to your room, barely maintaining your composure.

Throwing open your door, you are greeted by two things- Yume standing triumphantly atop freshly laundered bedclothes, and a Tsuki-sized mannequin, wearing a glamorous but functional silver dress, with accents of fur, as requested.

As usual, he kept his word.

Resisting the urge to try it on, you sit down at your desk, pulling out a notepad. You need to plan- Nori might be stupid, but she’s strong- and that stupid strength is a power unto itself.

She won’t be intimidated by your Stellar Release, either.

You…

1. Buckle down and get planning!
2. Go talk to Danzo about this.
3. Indulge yourself, and wear the dress instead. Just.. for a little while.

>>599861
Nah Hinata would volunteer because she's an amazing human being and then everyone would be like "shit if fucking HINATA is willing after the shit he gave her we've basically got to too."

>>599871
2. Go talk to Danzo about this.

>>599871

to see if there are flaws.

Danzo, I need to kick the stuffing out of the Fourth Hokage's Daughter, How do? (we all know danzo would jump at this chance)

>>599871
Wait wasn't it a fur coat?

>>599871
>>2. Go talk to Danzo about this.

>>599871

Both?

Like plan with Danzo.

>>599871
>2. Go talk to Danzo about this.

>>599879
I'd suggest going too Danzo first, we may have more intel on the techniques Nori's family use and...other information that may be important

>>599871

Danzo runs quests in his spare time and is a Mod?

>>599871
1. Buckle down and get planning!
2. Go talk to Danzo about this.

Buckle down and plan with Danzo

>>599871
>>599884
>2. Go talk to Danzo about this.
Mega both. Pop a clone to think about it while we go down and think even more about it with Danzo.

>>599871
>Go talk to Danzo about this.

>>599871
>>1. Buckle down and get planning!

Okay so.... buy up the deed to the space Ichiraku's is on beforehand, so if she calls the bluff we can go "oh I wouldn't would I? Then why do I already have the fucking deed right here?"

I assumed talking to Danzo means we are planning with him.

>>599893
Haha apparently. Funny typo there on my part, turns out Danzo is a scumbag mod

>>599871
>>599900

This. Multi task like a boss.

>>599906
Oh man. Oh man, that's strong.

>>599871

or we could be REALLY MEAN and replace ourselves with a clone and have it explode Ebisu-style. Maybe even make it look like him.

>>599918
Those would just be words. Who'd even know if she wasn't just making something up? Doesn't matter if that's actually true if we can make her doubt sufficiently.

>>599907
You are correct.

>>599906
>>599915
>>599923
I like the way you think.

>>599925
Nah, that's fucked up.
Way too fucked up.

>>599906
>>599923
I'd rather we just fake the deed. Winning by happening to have money doesn't demonstrate our skills as a ninja. Faking a document to trick our enemy on the other hand does. Remember this is an exam.

>>599930
Making all three daddies proud

>>599925
Okay there's "forgive me I was bluffing. For one thing if I tried your mom would straight up honest to god murder me" and then there's "Nori and hinata hate us forever."

>>599934
Ah but using all means at your disposal is also a ninja trait, so if you just to happen to have blackmail material and can afford to get it to leverage a advantage over some one then I think we get a pass.

>>599934
knowing our enemy's weakness and exploiting it is

>>599871
>1. Buckle down and get planning!

>>599941
If we actually put it to a vote I think I'll vote for it now.

>>599934
Fair enough. Make that shit look real as hell. Fake the Deed, the contract and signatures etc. Tell her if she says no that they will be shortly getting moved to Takigakure or something.

When she asks how we say we made them an offer no one could refuse

>>599934
Its also demonstrating knowledge of the opponent's emotional weaknesses. Yeah we wouldn't have the option if we weren't born into wealth but it's not exactly against the spirit to use any tool available.

>>599930

Could we also ask about wearing our mother's headband to the Exams?

>>599939
>>599933
>>599929
Faking our own death is a little much, but having her fight exploding clones while we chill in a corner could be perfect. She's dull enough to not notice they're all clones, and if they swarm her in taijutsu she has a choice between fight back and get blown up and don't fight back and get pounded. there are ways around that strategy, but I don't think she'd be able to figure one out.

>>599934
Nah, she'll know if it's fake. Ramen addict intuition, yeah?
Gotta do it for real.

>>599941
It might go down well, yeah. Might not though. I don't think Minato will like it much. Neither will Nori. If we just trick her like a master rusemaster I feel like it'll be better received.

Ok all those who support bringing the fake deed/ramen stand hostage plan say Aye. This is actually a really fun idea and a great change of pace.

>>599930
>>599906
You had better fucking let us do this

>>599950
Honestly the more detailed the story the more likely something is to make her go "hey wait that's dumb."

>>599957
I'm liking the buyout plan more. We can of course have a backup

We have too make sure the store is closed tommrow so Nori can't get any ramen before the match, it'll also help sell the story

>>599962
Aye to the fake taking it hostage. Doing it for real no. And that ebisu thing. Definitely fucking not

No.

We buy Ichiraku Ramen.

During the matche, we give Nori a choice. Either she fights us, and we close Ichiraku Ramen and give Teuchi and Ayame all of the dosh to live well.

OR

She forfeits...and we give her the deed, letting her become the proprietor of her favorite ramen stand.

>>599906
Don't have the real deed on us when we fight, obviously.
Just a copy.

>>599961
It can be a trick even with a real deed. The real deed just makes the trick more believable.

>>599960
She also has 1.5 Intelligence. I think we can put one over on her.

>>599972
I support this, she would probably give the deed back to them the goody two-shoes she is.

>>599925

>>599974
Well the yeah the real deed as opposed to a copy would be dumb to have because Nori might decide "if I just steal the deed problem solved right"

When Nori rages and says we are supposed too be Ninja, we just quip back "well i'm a business woman first"

>>599978
fucking genius

>>599984
Nah that really WOULD be bad for the examination. "Hey ninjas use every tool available" would look much better even if it's not as quippy.

>>599972
This works too.
Now, we shouldn't start the match off with it. The exams are supposed to be a display of skill, right? Instead we wait until some damage has been done or, rabbits forbid, we start losing, and then pull our trump card.
We'll make her an offer she can't refuse.

>>599984
A good ninja gets the job done, the specifics are unimportant.
If you get fucked, you got fucked. Don't matter how it happened.

>>599982
>>599974
>>599972
How about a combo?
>I have the deed to Ichiraku Ramen
>If you forfeit I'll give it to you
>otherwise I'm shutting it down
>But which one of us is the REAL Tsuki with the REAL deed?
>Choose wrong and it'll EXPLODE!

>>599974
>>599976
If we're not going to have the real deed on us when we fight, why do we need a real deed at all?

>>599984
Bonus: Novice rusemasters would think that if she forfeits, we win, and if she doesn't, we have to fight. Master rusemasters like us pop a few clones just before we bring out the deed, and set up a massive trap/attack for her while she's making her decision. We win either way.

>>599990
No, we should open with it. The last thing we want is for other contestants to see what we can do. The more tricks we have later on, the more we can pull out in a pinch.

>>599990
Agreed we pull our trump card when we need it. Not before.

how about we just fight like sane people?

>>599993
>nori's face when she tries to figure that one out

>>599995
You don't have to, but it's always better if the threat is real.

>>599990
I'd rather open with it to enforce the rich girl persona as much as we can.

>>600000
The quints make me want to trust you, but since when is sanity and 4chan compatible?

>>599993
That's dumb. Honestly I don't want to bribe her it just... feels wrong? The suggestion she can be bought off might make her fight anyway out of spite. I'd rather just give it to her afterwards so no one can ever use it against her again as a gift, no strings attached.

>>599993
I don't like this plan, but I'll support it if the band plays dramatic music while we give her the ultimatum.

>>600000

Cool gets, but no.

>>600000
>Because I'm scared, anon. Nori's gonna shrek us if we don't outwit her.

>>599998
It's a trump card that's ONLY good for Nori.

>>600003
True, we're going in with an orchestra and a ball gown.
If we lead off by winning like that, it'll cement the idea that we don't have any actual skills and just bribed our way to this point.

>>600000
Because we don't want to have to pull out stellar chakra before we have to and beating Nori would almost definitely require it.

>>600014
Exactly, and it isn't like we won't fight is she says no. But we have to put the plan into action the day before so she can't buy Ramen the day of.

>>600001
>>600007
>>600008
We don't have to bribe her, we can go full stick.
>I have the deed to ichiraku Ramen
>After this match I'm going to have it bulldozed
>To keep it safe i have it right here on me
>I sure hope you don't try to steal it because this is the original and I don't have any copies
So she'll plan to steal the deed from us to save Ichiraku, but them we bust out the exploding clones and play hot potato to keep her focused on the deed instead of pounding our ass backwards.

>>600022
And it's true that nori is strong as well.
That whole side is full of strong people, and then sasuke at the end.
The less we have to fight, the better.
It'll be more than a little tiring.

>>600026
That is the backup plan for if she tries to call us on our bluff I'd say.

>>600026
whats your plan for the fox juju? Those clones of ours are expensive

>fight normally at first.
>Things get tense. "Looks like I'm going to have to go all out."
>Nori expecting stellar release, pull the ramen card.
>Later on in the tourney.
>"Looks like I'm going to have to go all out."
>"Ha, you think anything being a little rich girl would get you will work on me?'
>Stellar release out of fucking nowhere.

>>600026
I'd rather not claim that we're going to completely destroy a working-class family's livelihood. Maybe instead a blanket ban on the Uzumaki family or simply hire the ramen purveyors as chefs at the Norihime mansion. That way we can have it made for ourselves and then simply throw it away to have an actually decent meal.

>>600032
>out of nowhere

We'll have to do it for her match.

>>600032
>Fight starts
>Pull Ramen Card
Fixed it

>>600029
She will call our bluff. I don't think she's going to stop for pretty much anything. That's why we should just use it to confuse her, throw her off balance, get the initiative to us. The longer we can keep her confused and not charging straight at us, the better.

>>600038
You say that, but we can make this a very convincing bluff. Then the second she is highest in her confusion, we can attack if we want.

>>600037
I like the idea of setting up future opponents to think being a rich girl is the only trump card we have. It makes them think they have our measure rather than being cautious about us being an unknown. Their failure? not looking underneath the underneath.

I'm worried about Hinata. One one hand I wouldn't want her to lose against Lee, but on the other I don't want Garra's crazy ass anyway near her. He'll either defeat her without serious injury because of Tsuki, or severely injure or even try to kill her to get at Tsuki.

To those anons who want us to whip out explosive clones to bomb Nori into submission theirs just four little problems
1) Shadow Clones are expensive in chakra and Tsuki can only make 1
2) Normal clones are shit
3) Tsuki doesn't know how to explode her clones.
4) All the clones experience gets passed back to the main body once its destroyed.

>>600046
We can just use some regular fire jutsu while she tries to close the gap. Her wind jutsu will make he job harder and the chains can't be that long ranged.

You collect your notebook and writing utensils and head down to Danzo’s room in the basement. As is what seems to be the norm of late, the elevator is engaged- though with your key the matter of summoning for it is a non-issue.

What greets you certainly isn’t what you expect- but then again, you weren’t expecting an entire orchestra on your doorstep when you returned home, either.

Hanging on the walls of the old ROOT facility are detailed stat-sheets on every single shinobi present in the final round of the exams, including yourself.

Danzo is sitting at his desk, deeply engaged in his research, though he quickly realizes that you have joined him.

“Ah, Tsuki! Welcome back- I’ve taken the liberty of using my connections to gather further information about your prospective opponents. All the better for us to concoct stratagem, of course.”

The old shinobi seems to have more life in him than the last time you spoke- good. Maybe he took your words to heart?

“Good to see you’re hard at work, Danzo. I take it you know who my first bout is to be against?” you ask, already knowing the answer.

“The look on his face- that will certainly be one for the books. She’s one of the favorites to win the whole thing- just like her brother at the last examination. It will be a big upset- and draw everyone’s eyes towards you.” Danzo says with a guilty smile.

“As they should be- especially after Father’s display! Ohohohohoho~!”

Your laughter echoes throughout the empty halls- it feels good to be able to laugh like that again.

Danzo rises, and slowly makes his way over to Nori’s stat-sheet, the loadout complete with a copy of her Shinobi photograph- the young blond thumbing her nose at the camera. Quite the charming picture.

“So, what were you thinking? I have some ideas- but I’d love to hear what you’ve been working on. I know that brain of yours hasn’t been idle.”

Well…

1. Obviously I just overwhelm her with my power!
2. Utilize Afterglow to hit her before she knows what happened!
3. I actually have something more sinister planned- potentially even keeping my abilities secret….
4. I’ll just fight her normally- I think I can win out.
5. Keep Stellar a secret at all costs!

>>600044

>Distraction
You might be able to steal the deed instead
>Misdirection

We could literally buy the owner into retirement. Or we could buy him a whole new restaurant in the capital. Worst case scenario we could offer to remodel the restaurant for him free of charge, and have it out of commission for 6 months. just enough time for the next chunnin exams.

She already knows.

Plus we'll have to use Afterglow to keep up with her speed.

>>600044
Lee ought to win IF he immediately goes all out against a girl. Given his personality, I'm not sure he will. Otherwise it's
"Give up Hinata, I'm clearly faster than you. Wait why aren't my arms moving?"

>>600046
Explosive tags. How does shadow cloning weapons work? If we make clones, do they get copies of all the tags we have on us?

>>600049
>6. Her favorite ramen stand is Ichiraku. It's a small stand, only two people working it. I'll just buy it and make a copy of the deed to carry into the ring. Bribery, by giving it to her if she forfeits. Extortion, by shutting the place down if she doesn't.
