“I wonder who else will enter Naruto’s web… and whether Asuma realizes the crap he stepped into when he tried to kick Naruto out… his Damiyo is gonna be PISSED.”

-anthonym3

Neither Naruto nor Asuma really wants Iroh to know so the real question is “Who’s going to be the one to tell him?”

“The way you write kakashi is definitely my favorite”

-Grounded Forever

I’m glad you like him, he’s quite fun to write.

“The chapter was great, Shizune and Tsunades talk was interesting, espcially how Shizune reacted to meeting her in the workshop. Ibikis and Naruto talk was also good what he gets out of it is still in the open. Didn’t expect Orochimaru to prepare such a through out way of transporting Akishi and her follow children, I really expected him to dumb her in a carriage without all the planning involved.


The best is simply your way of portraying Kakashi and how infuriating he can be to others, I always like this parts the most.”

-Seta88

While Orochimaru isn’t exactly fond of Akishi- purely because Naruto has expressed his current distaste for her and her siblings- she also knows that Naruto has given the Ak’Gyun a task to complete. Even if he really doesn’t expect her to be able to accomplish it Orochimaru will still recognize her service to Naruto and will do what she can to help make it happen.

Of course, there’s also the fact that the last thing she wants is an upset Naruto and he’s sure to be displeased if Akishi was to be exposed so quickly and bring him undue attention.

Kakashi is an infuriating kind of guy, it just comes naturally to him.

“I don’t say this enough but Kakashi is such a character in this story. I love it”

-777torn777

He is, indeed, a character. Were he the one talking he would no doubt mention your incredible skill in observation. Glad you like him.

“Yo can you do a temari/Naruto more”

-ElectricZ1234

As the two have been physically separated by quite a difference they haven’t exactly had a chance to spend any time together. That may change soon, so we’ll see how things go. As usual- no promises. My muse is a fickle thing.

“Man the lad is plucking some prime cuts before he dips.”

-TheGreatBubbaJ

Naturally. He’s a Wolf, did you really expect him to leave such juicy steaks alone?

“Nice chapter, I am curious, im sure you have a rough storyline planned out, how many more chapters can we expect? Are we already past the halfway point? (sure hope we are NOT!) What do you guesstimate how many chapters and words this story may reach?”

-Wicked-A

I do have a rough outline planned out and yes, the last ten to twenty chapters have accomplished just about nothing from it. We should be past the halfway point, but I can’t really say for certain. Not really planning for it to pass 1.5 million at the max, but I also wasn’t expecting 100,000 and we’ve seen how that went…..

I can’t see the story having more than 250 chapters but, again, nothing ever goes the way I plan it.

“Ohh so Inu-oji is going to get his own Dog squad, lol”

-Phazer12

I suppose that’s one way to look at it, assuming he ever actually makes use of them.

“Still quite the pleasure. I would’ve thought that Ibiki would have known more though.”

-Senyor Fier Mensheir

Asuma has been keeping this very close to his chest. Only he, Hiruzen, Danzou, and his ANBU guard are aware, to the best of his knowledge.

While not necessarily about chapter 128 this was nonetheless in the pile of reviews that accumulated during that period so we have a guest apperance from a chapter 10 review;

“Your evil”

-Jondoe0321

Thank you.

“Somehow I don’t think even Remy would be able to help her cook.”

-TheGreatBubbaJ

Well, at least she didn’t accidently poison him….

“I really don’t know if you’re going to publish a chapter before the end of the year, so I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance.
I don’t know about you, but I’m definitely going to celebrate that this year is over.
Keep writing.
Blessings and good health to you and your loved ones.”

-javi30

Hey, I don’t think I’m that bad at getting chapters out.

The same to your and your loved ones.

“Akishi’s cooking was funny and the look at her personality was nice , also Naruto’s conversation with Kakashi was interesting
and Mai as heir was predictable before the relationship drama with Mai, Tsume and Naruto.

I can only hope Mai and Tsume have less/no screen time after this drama, because its getting annoying (after 15 chapter?) and Mai is still irresolute about her feelings for Naruto

Ok, maybe I’m still angry about MaiXTsume (and Tsume’s bad character in this story)

whatever, stay healthy”

-IGT

Mai knows exactly how she feels about Naruto, she just doesn’t know how to deal with it. It’s a pity people dislike Tsume so much, I quite like her.

“What would Naruto transition into then? He’s paving the way for his wolves. Maybe a daimyo like position for him and Mai acting as the Kage. Makes some sense. I guess then the Uzumaki would live on within the wolves. Accidents do happen.”

-777torn777

His sister still is the Uzumaki heiress, the clan will continue through her. I had a bit more complicated way of that happening but, well, I ended up cutting that from the plans to keep things from getting too convoluted.

“Ahh my favorite fic gets another update. I’ve got to say I really liked Ahkshi(?)’s agreement with orochi it was nice and well gave a wonderful look at thier personalities. Is naruto planning another splinter organization or something?

Can’t wait for more plz stay safe an keep up the amazing work!”

-vladmirfox

Naruto doesn’t really plan them, they just sort of form around him.

“I ***new it, God, I already picked up on his behavior way back, even before the MaixTsume arc, considering I ***feel how he feels sometimes. Like ***man, do you ever just want to build everything you ever wanted and just suddenly disappear afterwards, its like your purpose is already finished so theres no point in continuing

Congrats!”

-Yushin1831

Ah, it’s good knowing I managed to keep his character at least semi-consistent. Thank you.

“Well I guess with him having been homeless for a while in what was probably years ago both in story and in real life he was probably used to or at least familiar with less than good meals…
Nothing more to ad though did akishi not follow Naruto’s order to tell orochimaru that he was displeased? Bad idea…
Overall a pretty nice chapter!”

-Wicked.A

When you’re hungry you eat, Naruto’s not all that picky. Of course, he would rather not eat garbage so it’s a good thing his children arrived in time to save him from suffering too much.

“Fishy rabbit rice. Yum.”

-IndianaJohhney

I’ll have to disagree with you there.

“”He had more important things to worry about than reality” sums up this fic quite well.”

-uflesh940

An astute observation.

“The chapter was great, Akishis task while funny can only end up in disaster. The part of the Anbu was interesting with the whole team introduced now and I must say I mostly forgot about Yugao after her giant mess up with Kiri. Not in the sense that I forgot her role, but after it she just didn’t seem important to the story anymore, as she didn’t play any kind of role in it anymore, with the exception of being the leader of Anbu. Looking forward to what new role you will give her.”

-Seta88

Don’t expect it to be a large one. I wasn’t going to be able to just cut her from the story considering her ties- broken or not- to Naruto but she’s really not going to be able to play a major part in the story after what she did.

“really like yugao plz dont throw her out”

Death’s-Touch

She’s not going to be thrown out but there really isn’t anything she can do to fully recover from her actions. As much as I like her, she’s not going to be super involved in the story.

Snek gets no slack.

-TheGreatBubbaJ

None whatsoever.

“Now I ain’t know THE Bob Ross is endorsing this endeavor.”

-ItsDante

Are you calling Bob Ross a liar?

“Por Yugao, things are really not breaking her way. Hope she can turn it around.

Still rather weirded out by the snake people. I did like the recruiting of Tsunade :)”

-Bearmauls

Just a snake person- for now. Bwahahahaha…..Yeah, we’ll see how this goes.

“Looool poor yugao just managed to not fall completely into depression but it looks like her luck just ran out since she now knows just how bad she hurt naruto by betraying him and also since he is going away, damn at this point I am pretty damn sure she would just go and beat the s*** out of asuma do causing all this, pft I really hope naruto seduces kurenai too so he gets ntred xD
Oh an naruto is gonna take away one of the first times of an immortal snake…kinda.”

-daniel2610994

While I’m not saying the two won’t share a bed, it’s not something I have specifically planned. If things end up developing that way it happens, if not they won’t.

“I can’t wait to see how Yugao reacts with this information. As for Anko and Kakashi, I could easily see Anko going with him cause well… she’s Anko, and Naruto asking Kakashi to stay behind as a set of eyes and ears. I also want Naruto to tell Kushina the truth during their family dinner. Who he is, what he is, everything. As a last chance for her to make an attempt to bond she’ll have to be willing to accept the truth and his own decisions. Hell she could accept it and be another set of eyes and ears in the village. I also want to see Mai move on from Naruto, I feel that while they were good together they’re the kind of couple that happen as a way for them to grow and evolve to who they truly are before going on to find their true partners. Though while I easily see Mai/Tsume, I don’t really see Naruto settling down with any one person, it’s not who he is, and Mai deserves to be someone’s #1. I don’t know if even half of these things will be in the next chapter but I can’t wait.

-Genesis09″

-Genesis09

Aw, you see how awkward things look when you sign them yourself? Damnit, now the whole site is ruined.

Naruto will most certainly not be able to settle down with only one person, even if he wanted to and Mai absolutely deserves to be someone’s number one- but do you really think Mai would be able to let Naruto go completely?

Of course, the solution there would simply be for Naruto to be Mai’s number two……

“Idk if it was intentional, but did Akishi’s mention of turning a race against a would be hordes have anything to do with Kaguya and Hagoromo…etc?”

desdelor97

What? Me? Seed a tie-in to existing cannon? You must have me confused with a more competent writer.

“Akishi’s tirade about brother against brother, sage against demon and would be Godess against a species reminds me of Asura vs Indra, the Sage of 6 paths against the 10tails and Kaguya against humanity (or maybe the toad clan since they also had something against her and set her sons up to fight her)
Overall a very nice chapter”

-Wicked.A

Huh, what a strange…coincidence.
