    Summary

    A Self Insert into Naruto.

    Ryoma, orphan of the sands, knows full well that he's nothing special as far as ninja go. Really, the smart move would be to run to the other side of the planet and wait for the oncoming apocalypse to pass him by.

    Running has never been his style.

    It's not Sakura's fault she's a bit spacey and distracted. You would be too if the dead refused to leave you alone.

    Summary

    Make the best of what you have, they said... But what I am supposed to do when the best I have are red-eyed freaks, a child who's supposed to be the jailor of the most dangerous being in the world, a snake bastard with serious boundary issues, and a whole world of super soldiers with licences to murder.

    And you know the best part? None of them like me so much...

    Oh shut it, old man! Take that Will of Fire and shove it up your—

    Yeah, this second swing at life isn't panning out...

    ————

    What to expect:

    1) Gradual strength progression. Meaningful growth. The MC starts as avg guy, very weak, and has to work for everything.

    2) "Slow" paced. The writing may feel slow, but I ensure the plot is always progressing.

    3) Gritty fights scenes with focus on taijutsu—individual, team, and large-scale battle.

    4) A unique take on the Naruto. A world full of super humans with license-to-kill—that along with the MC's struggles paint the world in a dark light.

    5) Additions to the chakra system. I'm conservative when adapting power systems—and will retain original feel while highlighting the best parts.

    6) This version uses the MANGA as the base—with additions from other sources.

    Summary

    A CYOA self-insert sounded fun. Until I woke up in the Naruto world mid–Third Shinobi War. Turns out "fun" is code for "suffering."
