Red Riot - Chapter 33 - Interlude - Elemental view points

Minato Namikaze:- Genin of Konoha, applicant at

Comments

I can also recommend "The Outsider's Resolve". You can find it on Space Battles, and it's also set before the beginning of the canon story. The MC takes an alternate career path to the main cast and has a challenging start without genetic advantages. Updates are normally 3 chapters once a week on Monday.

Daaamn I'm already caught up! I wish this updated more frequently, it's one of the best Naruto fics out there imo and I bet many more people would subscribe (or keep the subscription as is my case). Great chapter btw, love to see Matsu getting the recognition he deserves, can't wait till he bevomes powerful enough to fight against the greats. Imma wait a few months to subscribe again to build up those chapters, can't wait!

“Mezzanine?” Minato heard more than a few of his fellows whisper among themselves. Does no one recognise the word becuase its one Matusu has brought to the world?

Tom

They are going to fix the matches so that iwa goes through, same way they are ate gonna sabatoge rain so that Hanzo doesn't gate crashes

Jaleel Hull

Yes she will be if Matsu become the Fourth Mizukage Maybe other Uzumaki they we don’t know going to appear and the Uzumaki going to become a new clan in Kiri

Having the Hyuga eye and Matsu to practice against should definitely make him better with using his illusions. However, there is somethin really funny that could happen. What if NONE of the Iwa Shinobi make it through the preliminary tournament and Mu is barred from attending the finale of the Chunin Exam?

Do you think where Karen Uzumaki? Will her parents go to the village of grass? This is my fury about it. You’re desperate you are a Uzumaki. Most likely Karen‘s parents didn’t have much skills. You have a choice to go to the Village of grass as a refugee or you see this other village yes it did destroy the village of whirlpool where you were from your or go to the hidden meets who you know has Uzumaki as a leader as. Mizukage what do you think as the third or fourth, it’s a good chance I think Karen most likely will be a hidden miss Shinobi. What do you think?

Alex Horsey

I wonder if the butterfly's wings have flapped hard enough to give Gengetsu an advantage over Mu.

LandoCali96

Different PoV along with this being 10k words will do that.

Viva01

hmmm you know that is a good idea. I will have to make a note of that for later artist works.

Viva01

Really nice to see that the cooperation between civilian students keeps up in the exam. It should also look good for reforms, cooperation trumps competition.

Paweł Stopa

I love this story so much, this interlude really highlights the way you approach this world, loved all the interactions. Amazing chapter.

I just would like to say would Matsu ever in the future commission or receive as a gift from the new lady of vegetables either armor or a blade from the the uzumaki blacksmith?

Kiri's showing is great so far. Maybe the other villages will feel the pressure and help Iwa a bit when it fights against Kiri. That might force Matsu to heal Gengetsu, so Kiri survives.

MaliMi

Red Riot got a new chapter..Got to say today was a good day. My theory is Gengetsu is no fool and knows that he is being set up to fight Mu so he might rely on Matsu for support to watch his back, in order for that he might declare Matsu some position directly under him during the chunin exams, making him also a target that would need Gengetsu to survive in order to keep all that he has built in kiri.. amazing chapter can't wait for the next.

RDZ90

Honestly, this is one of my favourite chapters really really. I love it. Usually I hate not talking about the main character. This one. I love it.

Alex Horsey

eh, knowing when konoha is going to fake a kumo capture attempt would be very difficult... they're not geographically close to each other and matsu doesn't have many spies in their vicinity... it would be better to let konoha alone and consolidate his power in kiri. He still has a ways to go before he can properly fight to jounin standards, as seen from his latest spar... and he needs to get the hospital off the ground. He also needs to ingratiate himself with the future 3rd mizukage. That's a whole tightrope he's going to need to walk, being useful, but not looking threatening. He needs to keep his Seal studies 100% underwraps because that is what makes him look scary right now.

MagicWafflez

eh, they aren't going to use the new genjutsu on anyone they don't plan on murdering directly after... it's too valuable a trump card for the entire village. And he isn't going to attack anyone during the exams because they're under truce.

MagicWafflez

First great ninja war ended with the third tsu, ho, and mizu kage in office. Kumo still had the second till the second war and sauna was on the fourth at the start of the third as their reason to kick off the third against konoha Data books

Donald Bagwell

Awesome chapter. Glad Matsu's kids are showing up and showing out. Teamwork makes the dream work, who'd have ever thought Kiri would be the one to make that into reality? Also, its pretty neat to see how the rest of the shinobi world sees Gengetsu as a terrifying boogyman.

SailorOfHouseThunderBird

I think the author will go with the idea that it was Yagura who made the bloody mist with his policies of hunting bloodline ninjas. As for Gengetsu, I think it's never detailed at which point in time he had his death match with Muu, only that it was before the Third Ninja War.

Fran

Kito seems to have a might makes right mentality along with his anger issues giving matsu free opportunities.

FunnyHats

You know what would be a shame? If someone intercepts Kushina’s capture and makes it look like Kuma actually got away with her. It would put a big dent in the power of Konoha, as it would be a Seal Master gone, potentially also the nine tail gone if it was transferred by then. It would be hard to get Kushina to flip, but not impossible. Sure it would butterfly Naruto from being born, but that’s a plus here as it would be new territory. Konoha had a lot of dark secrets. And being revealed the right way can cause some loyalists to defect. Specially if a lot of their family died because of this. Cough Tsunade cough. Would be interesting to see a weaker Konoha come out of the next war. If he can eliminate Mikoto during this time or use medical jutsu to make it so she can’t have kids (unless reversed) without being obvious about it could also butterfly itachi, another valuable asset. This though is a lot more morally dubious (and while a good tactical move would rather not see it).

Zerak

Been a while since i read the story… but wasnt it the third mizukage who made the bloody mist and the fourth who made it worse? Gengetsu kicked the bucket in the first war after and at the same time as mu did Tbf we know more about gengetsu, and only that third mizukage we know nothing about

Donald Bagwell

Ei sneered as "she" performed a final press with his weight. Shouldn't be he?

Konan2020

Seeing other POVs is so fun, love watching other people's thoughts and reactions.

Earendel

I loved all the ninja espionage action this chapter! Raaaah!

Skinnybonz

The teachers in Kiri must be rejoicing that, for once, the civilian kids are someone else's problem.

MaliMi

I think this is my favorite story

Silvy

More death and destruction are needed! Happy to see new chapter

Tom Tat

This was incredible. Thank you very much.

Matthias Gerhards

smh. kito just *handed* matsu that in with the proctor. matsu was right, now kiri seems much more reasonable~ smh. minato is really going to say attacking teachers is worse than murdering your classmates at their behest. nope. and you only have to kill teachers once, then the child murder stops. but killing the children just means you kill more children next year. I'm sad they don't think Matsu is the same as Kushina and Minato. he totally is! D: he's just more competent than they are!

MagicWafflez

Thank you for the chapter! This continues to be comfortably the best Naruto fic running right now

Eren Jaeger

Yo! I'm so excited for these exams. Matsu looking down at Minato definitely seems like art moment that could be commissioned. Matsu interactions with Jiraiya were dope. Kiri showing more teamwork than Konaha 😁

G 21

I love it! So happy to see Matsu reputation in the other villages.

Bat

While it was towards the ladder half of the 2nd war where they fought Hanzo, it was not the end. Jariya trained them for about a year or 2 before leaving, and its been about year since the war's end. He would have probably around a half decade to start training a new student. Also this seems to be somewhat early in Minato's training if he's just now taking the exams.

William Prince

Team edgy hawk lol

That Warden

I thought Jariya was busy tutoring the rain orphans during this time.

ArtHunt

Matsu setting up for a Kiri sweep right in front of all these older and more experienced shinobi. You love to see it.

J

Look underneath the underneath. So many schemes, plots, and conspiracies happening and the exams have only just started.

NinjaShinobi124

It would be interesting if Matsu could tip his hand just enough to plant the idea in Jiraiya’s head that if he actually became Mizukage he might seed some new values in Kiri that might make it more ideologically aligned with Konoha. Could keep some specific kill teams off him during the next war if he’s seen as some sort of asset/investment.

Ghrian

Thanks

Qweku_v

Poor small villages. It's like they on the Olympics with the big villages cheating, bribing, dopping and sabotaging

Petrox

Loved the chapter, great work!

Rhaid

My favorite series getting a extra chapter? A good day.

Shadeepta

Awesome we finally get a look behind the curtain on other villages perspectives

Xodarap4

Matsu will try the special genjutsu on Mikoto to scare her shitless, or someone else will use it on her and steal her eyes. Great show of Matsu's kids.

Fran

Nice the chapter felt realy long. Like 3 chapters in length.

Brian Pierce

Teamwork makes the dream work
