Dang! How do you do this? I'm am just a humble reader. I have no idea that can match up to your currently, not to mention I am behind! Can't wait to see what's next!

2025-08-24 06:45:00 +0000 UTCThat is certainly an idea unfortunately, Beatrice's corpse is in the valley of drakes, hidden by magic in game. You can find it after summoning adult Beatrice to fight the Four Kings Boss. So like when Naruto fights the four kings, he will reunite with Beatrice.

2025-08-15 23:13:11 +0000 UTCSo a bit off topic from monikers but I wish to speak of my current ship for this story which is naruto and that witch girl he fought that holy moth with And I know you said she has already died but I have a way for it to work, you said she died but I don't think you said anything about whether they found the body or not. Now we all know that time is weird in dark souls but from my understanding you can't change events that already happened but let's say they never found her body then who's to say she wasn't saved at the very last second and taken to naruto's world somehow Definitely one of my more hairbrained ideas if I say so myself

2025-08-15 20:37:46 +0000 UTCSeems like a fun moniker. Another one would be the schizo barbarian. Lol.

2025-08-15 17:13:03 +0000 UTCOk I think I have a good moniker to build off of for Sakura The violent wall. It's not the best but I think it's a good starting point to come up with a actually good moniker as for how she might get it a mix between when she stopped the Canon fire back in wave and when inner Sakura (will she get a real name eventually or will just only call her inner sakura?) To over to fight the ninja with the thunder God's sword So what you think

2025-08-15 17:11:44 +0000 UTCWell, everyone would definitely get bamboozled by soul clones, but the thing is, why would Naruto use a soul clone when they ultimately reduce his stats? Still, I agree that everyone would be shocked. Maybe I will use it in some capacity in the future because I can already think of a chapter where it would fit perfectly. Now, about the Itachi moniker, it is interesting. I could actually see it becoming Sasuke’s moniker instead. What do you think about that? Also, I want to say this, man. Regardless of what kind of idea you have, whether it is smart or completely wild, I will never insult you for it. I like reader feedback, and you are one of the few readers who consistently gives me ideas to think about. I am genuinely grateful for that. I want you to know you should not think too lowly of yourself. If someone insults you over feedback, just stop engaging with them. Your words matter, and I do not say that lightly. I would rather have a reader throw ten “bad” ideas at me and have one of them spark something amazing than have a hundred people stay silent. Even the ideas that do not work now might work later. You are helping me more than you realize.

2025-08-15 01:12:42 +0000 UTCI have an idea that is either great or horrible What assuming Naruto goes the the 3rd with the red letter they decide to use naruto's magic enhanced shadow clones, and as I'm typing this i have decided to call them soul clones cause it sounds awesome, which would shock everyone as not only does he have a physical clones he has one that can last indefinitely Also I thought of a cool title for itachi a while ago that I don't think you ever saw it was Itachi of the blood stained eyes. So what do you think am I stupid or am I dump (far warning i have only had 3 hours of sleep in the last 2 days so I am slight sleep deprived so feel free to call me a Moran as I will find it funny)

2025-08-15 01:00:39 +0000 UTCYes and no. Naruto can absorb the scales of other dragons but he won't get their abilities. This way, we don't make naruto more op then he already is. But Naruto can absorb other stuff to gain aspects for example let's say Naruto absorbs the dragon heart of Stormrend, Naruto would probably get lightning nature. P.S. This is a hypothetical question.
Muhammad Hasnain
2025-08-11 13:48:08 +0000 UTCSo a thought occurred after I read the lore dump (thanks for that by the way) i assume that Naruto will have to absorb scales from other dragons (at least that is what my current theory is) does that mean if he absorbed the scale of a lightning dragon (I assume those exist) would he gain that chakra nature, or am I misunderstanding something

2025-08-11 13:41:31 +0000 UTCAwesome chapter. Thank you.

2025-08-11 05:13:50 +0000 UTCAlso, I really hope everyone notices that he relented about taking the old man's eyes for Hinata's sake. I want to see Hyuga shipwrights busy at work (also, I think you're doing the relationships and techniques in general better than in canon; very nice work)

2025-08-11 03:48:48 +0000 UTCGreat chapter. The fight was great and I like how it wasn’t one sided even though Naruto didn’t go all out. Excited for the future. For the jutsus I think Naruto could gain more close range jutsu’s. He has a lot of variety in his long range and while he doesn’t necessarily need it, it wouldn’t be bad to get close range jutsus. So maybe the 8 trigrams 64 palms, or even Twin Lion Fist. Imagine Naruto using his clones and all of them simultaneously attack with 64 palms. Actually a defensive Jutsu wouldn’t be bad either. Naruto doesn’t have much defense jutsus so Palm Rotation could be good. He could use it defensively but also offensively if he gets creative.

2025-08-11 03:39:53 +0000 UTCThere's fanfics that are slop. That's fine, junk food is nice from time to time. Then there's this. Frigging gourmet feast with highest standard of ingredients. Foreshadowing, themes, and some good old-fashioned face slapping; this is awesome, thanks for the chapter!

2025-08-11 01:27:02 +0000 UTCWell, these are some hard-hitting questions, but let’s go. 1. Naruto’s third eye meaning he could get the Rinnegan. Well, Naruto having three eyes is due to his nature as a Calamity Dragon. In Dark Souls, the Calamity Dragon Kalameet has three eyes and telekinesis in his boss fight (you can check the wiki for that). But due to how eyes work in the Naruto verse, Naruto could legitimately get the Rinnegan as his third eye. And I can pretend that yes, I have been hinting at this from the start, lol. Now, will Naruto get a Rinnegan… ehh, I don’t know. I’ll probably deal with this plot thread in the future when shippuden rolls around. 2. Honestly, I didn’t think of Naruto using the system like that, so I definitely want to thank you for this idea. I will definitely be using it in the next chapter. Now what hyuga minjutsu and new wind style jutsu do you want to see in Ds naruto's arsenal?

2025-08-11 01:24:51 +0000 UTCOk don't have to many questions this time just 2 theories I'd like to talk about the first I think I mentioned on fanfic.net before I got an account and the other I got while reding reading The first has to do with naruto's dragon form specifically the fact he has three eyes now maybe the three eye is more connected to darksouls but as I know jack diddly about it I'm focusing on the characters in Naruto that have 3 eyes they are the sage of 6 paths, Kaguya and anyone that became the ten tails container, and what do those people have in comman? they all have some form of the rinnegun so I believe Naruto will get some for of the rinnegun in his third eye The other threoy had to do with that red letter Naruto got in this chapter since he put it in his inventory he'll be able to see it's description which might include Danzo's name or motive which leads me to believe Naruto will go to Hiruzen to figure out why the man who ruined his life is running free since Naruto know Danny's name and even if the description doesn't give his name Naruto is smart enough in this to figure it out So those are my theories what do you think
David Owens
2025-08-10 22:04:10 +0000 UTCAs always great chapter I will ask my questions once I fully digest the chapter but first to answer your question about the justu Naruto got from the Hyūga I really think it should be something defensive as for the specifics I doubt I can help much 🤷♂️
David Owens
2025-08-10 20:33:43 +0000 UTCAt the current moment, i would put naruto at: - Low to mid jonin rank in base like how naruto normally fights. - High jonin rank if Naruto uses every card he has on the table like magic + chakra, making hid Hp low activate his rings and consuming a bunch of humanity. For reference, naruto going all out would be like asuma level at the current moment.

2025-08-10 19:22:32 +0000 UTCI wasn’t 100% sold on the slowdown of pace after the non-stop action of the Wave Arc…. But I gotta say, this sets the stage nicely for a whole lotta entertaining payoffs down the line. Kudos to you author. We all await more with great anticipation.
MehOhWell
2025-08-10 19:21:41 +0000 UTCI like how the fight shows that even if Naruto won in the end he still ended up taking some hits, he’s strong but not ‘nothing can hit me’ strong. What strength would you put him at, low-Jonin?
