What's the point of this story? you keep going off on tangents and i have no clue where anything is supposed to lead anymore

Really enjoyed this and the creative use of poison!looking forward to reading your other works

I read the entire thing and I didn't understand what the hell was going on.

In response to the authors notes, yeah unlike most dark!Naruto fanfics you don't bash the characters and make Naruto suddenly evil

Awesome! Do you think you'll ever make an epilogue?

Story becomes... not very good, during and after chapter 17. Yikes.

trash the fight is another canon rehash and the pairing sucks and pretty much forced they just talked in the flower shop and naruto already act like he owns ino? so jts trash and its also irritating how he whines about ino

I also agree that only the Akatsuki slash their forehead protectors because in the wave arc it showed Zabuza with a slash through his.

Amazing story! Thank you so much for the read

love the story, this fanfic is awesome

don't know if you don't know this or if you changed it but the remaining sound ninja and some random person of the chunin exams team were sacraficed for the edo tensei to revive the past hokages. or at least that's what I get from multiple fanfics which is my only source of reference

Congratulations on writing a different, compelling story that is a significant cut above most things posted here.

Is he finally going to try instead wait to be handed everything? I mean damn kick a dog enough it will turn on you. Naruto has been kicked for 12 yrs and is only at the point of slightly doubting his naive retarted view. It good you rhave naruto acknowledge intelligence isnt a strong point because majority of this chapter felt i was reading abt the spoiled retarded canon naruto

Ino annoys me quite a bit, she's just too smug in her manipulations, and Naruto is too accepting.

Not sure why Naruto would even care that much about having a kid, or why he would let Ino basically trap him into keeping ties with Konoha it seems to go against most of his characterisation throughout this story.

An amazing story... someone should make an akatsuki community and put this masterpiece there! I love how you took inspiration in Zetsu and made him your own. A powerful Naruto that truly doesn't feel like and insult to the original since you see that bonds truly matter to him. And this twist with his child is amazing to show this! I don't know how Inojin will grow, but I think the question is part of the ending. Excellent job!
