So, I've really enjoyed this story so far, I hope it isn't dead, that would be a real shame. Here's hoping this is just on a temporary hiatus.

I dont know if you care at this point, but I dont like the idea of naruto's plan any more than izumo does. Heartbreakingly cruel. Other than that I like this chapter. I will give the story a chance because you as the author know what naruto plans to do is wrong, but I dont want to see hinata or ino with their heart broken by naruto's scheme.

Great story! Can't wait for the next update!

Please continue!

Great story please continue the story

for people reading up and finishing chapter 5 push out through to the next chapter author's notes explains it pretty well

Dont like it.. sorry

This fic is awesome!
It's focus on tactics and subtlety instead of the normal Jutsu emphasis is quite unusual but just as interesting.

I hope that you continue to update it.

Sasuke Sarutobi? Who is he?... i mean there Hiruzen Sarutobi The Third Hokage... but Sasuke Sarutobi... never heard of!

Great story!

Loving the story so far. Keep up the great work!

very interesting story! I really like the changes you made to canon. naruto is awesome - Nami is great :)
I love this :)

You just had to troll us at the end there didn't you, hahahaaa

So when i hit 26 and wanted to go to the next chapter was sorely dissapointed that was the last posted :( but only cuz this was an awesome story! Holy shite! While i wish sasuke and kakashi were more fleshed out your mains are fleshed pretty damned well. I think a nar/umi pairing would be interesting especiallynif you threw sakura in. The fact that naruto would be romancing himself and sakura would be interesting as hell. Not to mention the emotional impact that would happen if umi was dispelled or ‘killed’ in front of him. The memories feedback of her(his?) feelings returning to naruto as well would be interesting(devastating?) anyway ive rambled on enough! Good job with the story and i hope you post again soon!

This is a fun and unusual story. Seeing Sakura portrayed as a three-dimensional character and Danzo being more than just the designated boogeyman is a surprising delight. I agree that we've seen very little of Sasuke, and the latest chapter is a motion in the right direction on that front.
