Welcome to Naruto Quest: Feeling Blue #3
Archive: https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive.html?tags=Feeling%20Blue
Some broad points to get every single newcomer up to speed as fast as possible:
>General setting details include a broadly lowered power level to keep things a bit saner, and the fact that the spiritual undercurrent of how the world functions is a lot more relevant to the cosmology and the function of ninjutsu. Other than that, everything is mostly canon to the mainline setting. I’m telling my own story in the world and deliberately avoiding prolonged involvement with canon cplot points for the most part unless they’re totally necessary. The timeline is roughly 5 years prior to the start of the series, and not too long after the massacre of clan Uchiha, an event that impacted you indirectly but personally.
>You are Otomo Mizutani, a budding ninjutsu specialist with a background in being a foreign-born citizen of the village, and a child sacrifice survivor. Your mom is the sociopath who evidently tried to kill you in an elaborate ploy to resurrect your long dead sister. Mother dearest is currently a missing-nin.
>Your teammates are Naoki Fuma, and Masami Igarashi.
>Naoki is a taijutsu specialist with a prosthetic arm he controls through puppetry jutsu. His calm and rational demeanor belies a significant amount of viciousness.
>Masami is a more balanced ninja who focuses on summoning crabs. She is crabby.
>Your jonin team leader is Hotaru Nakagawa, a kind woman who alternates between being cryptic and impish. She’s also a ninjutsu and sealing jutsu specialist, her main claim to fame is that she knows some secret techniques that allow her to manipulate heat. You and Masami live with her in her defunct inn because your home lives would otherwise be non-existent or depressing.
>So far you’ve graduated from the academy, learned that you have a supernatural affinity for fighting demons, realized that your soul has a hole in it from your botched murder/sacrifice, and got drunk at a bonfire party and watched your boy Naoki beat a 10-year-old into submission because she’s a grown woman and deserved it.
>Your team is above-average in competence as far as you can tell, but you’re still largely untested.
>Luckily, you’ve been assigned your first C-rank mission to escort a merchant caravan to the northern end of the Land of Fire. You are to protect them from the Lords of Fire, an apparent bandit group. You are to end this bandit group, if possible.
>Not having much more information to go on than that, you’re currently investigating for additional details.
