Pink Blossom Quest IIIrd Strike

Please be aware that there will be ab uodate to character sheet later

 

As a fyi, I should note that things do happen in the background without your intervention or sometimes notice.

Hence why you get surprises like this vacation choices.

Also, that genjutsu tech you mastered 'easily' is b rank and considered a hard technique to learn and use.

 

That's the thing, when they asked Fishcake for sex, he used legendary babbling on them and they shrugged and went with "look, it's physically obvious once the kid starts developing", and then you factor in the "sexy" no jutsu being active... Besides, gender is an "obvious" thing, clearly due to the whole Kyuubi attack, records must have gotten mixed up in the hospital. So, they went with "whatever, must be a girl. Just keep buying her dresses and other girl clothes."

They wouldn't ask old man Hokage, or Jiraiya... and prior to the discovery thing, Naruto is still young enough he could be a girly boy or a boy-ish girl... so, Iruka isn't any help. And given that Sakura's grandparents were introduced to Naruto as a girl, and she got introduced to the extended family as a girl...

And then when they did the paperwork for Uzumaki Naruto (not Uzumaki or Fishcake), with gender left empty, or listed as female.

Yeah... Naruto is kind of a fubar situation where he is growing up in female form. That transformation technique really is that good at a full body transformation.

Sauce is Naruto wikia, not Danbooru

Exploding Tags or Explosive Tags : One of the common tools of a ninja is the exploding tag. These pieces of paper are inscribed with the word for "explode" which are surrounded by chakra infused ink denoting the nature of the explosions. Part mathematical calculation and part stylized circuitry within which chakra flows, additional inscriptions provide power and control of the explosions.

While doing the sealwork for explosive tags, the ninja must continuously transmit chakra down the brush in an even flow to infuse the ink as it flows on the paper. After the ink dries, the explosive tag is treated so that it doesn't get ruined by water or other liquids.

But that is the creation of such. The use of exploding tags is simple. One but has to provide a minimal amount of chakra into the tag and the reaction starts as it pulls in chakra from the air around it to fuel its explosion.

With the prevalence of explosive tages, naturally, there are tactics and doctrines regarding the usage of explosive tags.

Accordingly, there are five grades of exploding tags;

E : These are mild explosive tags that are as powerful as firecrackers and are used by students in academies.
D : The general common explosive tags that can be found in shinobi stores and which are taught to genin or chunin with some skill at seals or who have expressed some interest in seals.
C : The highest rank explosive tags available for sale in shinobi stores or villages during peace time. This are high grade explosives that are on par with old world fragment grenades, only they have explosive force instead of shrapnel.
B : Explosive tags of this grade are typically hidden village or clan secrets. At this level, a single explosive tag is able to bring down entire buildings in cities if not multiple buildings. Tags of this size are significantly larger than normal tags and are the size of large scrolls.
A : Explosive tags of this grade are rumored things of terror. They are considered weapons of mass destruction and there are restrictions on the creation and usage of explosive tags of this grade. At this size and power, they are no longer simple "tags", but are more akin to massive explosive scrolls the size of small houses. It is considered cheaper and easier to create and use thousands of lower powered explosive tags than to create one of these monstrosities due to size limitations and chakra expenditure during its creation. It is said that these tags in the warring clan era eradicated entire villages, towns and cities.

 

The child is sane, is not crazy or bloodthirsty and outside of crossdressing, is a reasonably nice person. Some times, it's best to leave well alone.

 

No torch for Naruto at this point.

Indeed.

- Consider selling some low end explosive tags and storage seals to your classmates for some extra spending money. Also, we might as well start working on getting costumers already, and ninjas are bigger spenders, specially on stuff that helps them stay alive, or cause more damage
Terris
- ask if he has already made plans for where we are to go. if he hasn't yet, perhaps we can swing by the shore of fire country, and/or hotsprings. meet up with our friends and family, even if it will only be a few days as opposed to the entire vacation. Though if he has already made plans, don't bring it up.
misterq
- Plus, sealing is fun! See if you can incorporate any of your other techniques into sealing. Perhaps people would pay for a Heart of Maya fantasy illusion scroll? (Holodeck scrolls, if possible, would be a neat thing! Experience a peaceful, calm, and pleasant day; a strong opponent which you can train/pummel/let loose on; instead of just watching the latest Princess Gale movie, be part of the action, etc..)

Hyuuga-hime Variants
Tetsurou
- Sell it to father as making business contacts and to mother as furthering what we learned in ninja school.

[X] Let's join Hyuuga-hime on the summer vacation to the southern shores of Fire Country.

The invitation was carefully replied to, the preparations not too arduous.

The thing that took the most time, really, was the journey given that most of the other students simply weren't as skilled as you were at jumping trees. That and the journey itself took two weeks due to it being done on a small caravan of wagons. A very long and boring two weeks as you and the other children invited played cards, guessing games and just enjoyed the scenery in general.

Well... at least you were prepared for the mind numbing boredom of the journey. Most of the other children not so much. They ooohed and ahhhhed at the for the first few hours and then boredom set in with the heat from the sun and the incessant cries of cicada.

Where you put pen to paper and drew and sketched, you could see Hyuuga-hime writing. Her small careful words fulling the air with your sketches.

Days passed beneath blue skies, white clouds and a sun.

Even the momentary bandit attack didn't prove to be TOO exciting. Not when there were three teams of jounin sensei with genin watching over this little caravan.

And even if they had gotten past those guards, there was the 'small' matter than you knew with absolute certainty that those you were with? They would have been able to make the lives of the bandits very short and very, very uncomfortable.

Still, there was something that had been nagging you about Naruto during the school year and now... on the trip. You knew she had done something.

It was on the final day of the journey, on the ferry to Goa island that you discovered the horrible truth. An unspeakable and unthinkable truth.

Naruto was wearing a simple sun dress over her swimsuit, and a simple shirt unbuttoned on top.

Fishcake, the shrimp of the class, no... Naruto... she was taller than you were. And...

You had to resist poking there.

Just what was she eating or drinking to be able to develop there so fast?

It wasn't just her. Rather, she and Hyuuga-hime were both developing.

You looked about and compared heights and the chests of your female classmates.

A mortifying discovery.

You... you were the shortest and flattest, out of all your classmates present. True, it was down to the assorted heirs and spares of the various clans, but even so.

Year 10 - Horrifying Discoveries​

What Do
[X] Badger Naruto about just what she had been eating to develop like that.
[X] Make mental notes to ask your Big Sis when you got back home.
[X] Try not to think about this, it would only lead to shenanigans!
[X] Write In.

Writer's Notes : Gotta apologize for the short post this time.

 

OOC wise, depending on votes, time and inspiration, I might do QQ only omake.

Sauce is not Danbooru, but the interwebs.

[X] Try not to think about this, it would only lead to shenanigans!
Sakura Event 1 - Enemy Nins
Sakura Event 2 - Village

As you struggled to come to terms at being the shortest and flattest of the students present, you were hit for the briefest of moments with this temptation. To corner Hyuuga-hime and Naruto, and make them give up the secrets that they possessed to growing taller than you!

You couldn't be the shortest, Fishcake Naruto was suppose to be the shrimp. Not you.

There was also that little voice that was in envy of Naruto's... budding 'talents'.

But no, that temptation and the little voice in your head that urged you to do so was taken aside and had her head pushed under the water and drowned.

There would be no shenanigans on this fine and balmy day. None. No fun in that kind of manner. Why you could see the misunderstandings that would just spark from you questioning Naruto. That didn't even come into consideration of the notion that you would appear weak and vain to your peers.

Unacceptable!

Besides~, you could always ask your two Big Sisters the next time you saw them. Yes, you can.

You looked out over the side and didn't quite laugh to yourself. It was all in your head. You would show them. You would show them all.

With a stiff wind from behind and just off the side, the ship continued to move forward, the steady creaking of wood and of the cloth, you can hear the sea splashing against the hull of the ship.

[Well... this is boring,] You had to agree with your inner voice. There wasn't exactly a lot to sketch on a ship at sea with no scenery beyond the sea and the ship itself. You couldn't even really practice your jutsu for fear of affecting things or people you didn't want to. How... frustrating.

"You know you could join us for cards. Cards and gossip," Naruto's voice slyly spoke up from behind you. "We could even share tips on clothing and stuff."

"...."

[Naruto, are you trying to make it even tougher for us to avoid those shenanigans?] Your inner voice spoke up and didn't quite glare at the blonde as you turned about to look at her.

"...." You had to arrange your thoughts for a moment, before shaking your head. "Maybe some other time?"

Yeap, you weren't going to be drawn into any shenanigans.

Which was when Naruto spoke up again. "So, pirates or ninja, which is better?"

"Huh?" You blinked at the non-sequitur question. "What do you mean, which is better? Isn't it obvious, given that pirates are basically sea bandits, and ninja always trump bandits?"

"Well~," She seemed mischievous as if she knew something you didn't. Annoying. "While I was coming to get you, I overheard someone mention that they spotted an unknown ship... we could find out very shortly."

"..... you are the worse, Naruto. The absolute worse," You sighed.

She beamed and didn't quite laugh, and dragged you behind. "Well, how else was I going to get you out of your funk, come on... let's go see the jounin we've got guarding us deal with some pirates."

- - -


​

"Tch, looks like a military ship," You listened without looking at the jounin standing on top of the ship's navigator cabin at the prow. That's what they called the front, right? "Won't be able to outrun it even if we got the motor started. And look it's cutting an intercept course. What can you make of it, Hyuuga-hime?"

"Ahhh... there are nins inside. But no headbands that I can clearly see," Your classmate sighed. "No, wait... the headbands have... clouds. Kumo nins. I can see sixteen kumo nins."

That flat tone of voice. It sounded as if Hyuuga-hime didn't like kumo nins.

"Ahhh," The jounin tched once more. "Well... looks like we're going to be earning our pay. If those are jounin with genin students, we should be able to handle it. But for them to know our heading... this doesn't bode well, and it's likely not genin on that ship. They just need to avoid witnesses, after all."

He didn't say a thing about the obvious problems here. Spies.

Somewhere, someone had leaked information about the vacation.

- - [X] Vibrate in place from holding yourself back. Okay, you bargain with yourself, if they make it past the jounin, then you can kill them.
- - - - [X] Oh, but not that one technique that destroys boats and souls. Having to swim the rest of the way would suck.

01 - Felius

[X] Make plans. Because let's be honest, full destruction is nice but if it gets out that we are already that strong it'll be allowed not to be a ninja.

[X] Use henge to disguise ourselves. Attack the other boat once in range. Aim for the masts rather than hulling. Crippling them and affecting their ability to approach does more for us long-term than sinking their boat and forcing them to come after us as a matter of survival.
