Getting to know naruto through Fandom is so funny bc one fic is like "this is Hashimara, he wants to make a village where no child ever has to fight in wars again :)) With the power of friendship, flowers, and this gun his brother found, he manages to make that dream come true and secure a brighter future for the children of tommorow!"
And then the next fic, set some years later in that same friendship village, is like "this is Kakashi! He's a 6 year old government licensed killer with undiagnosed ptsd. His teacher and vague father figure (who is also the president) thinks that what he needs to help with all the government sanctioned trauma is to join the KGB"

Naruto-kun when life gave you lemons you wasted no time in whining how sour they're, you made instant lemonades out of them. It simply can't be a coincidence that your birthday falls on 'world mental health day'. Your existence has been a therapy for generations. There was a time when you, a small blonde kid was wandering in the depths of loneliness, deprived of love and hope. So you became their very embodiment. Your smile, Naruto-kun, is warmer, brighter, and vigorous than the burning star itself.
I've spent more time with you than with my friends. I've grown old with you. I've seen you cry to sleep. And the very next day smile like nothing hurts at all. In the face of despair you'd always dig deeper to search for the strength to overcome it. In you, I saw myself. Perhaps because I've learned more about life from you than all the books and degrees I've finished.
You gave me the courage the dream audaciously. Dreams larger than the blue sky that envelopes us. Dreams that made others doubt me and laugh at me. Everytime I was affected by their laughter and cheers, I went back to you. And like a guardian angel you set me back on the right path like I was never lost. You taught me to 'Believe in myself when nobody did. Especially when nobody did.' You taught me 'Dreams do come true' and the first step towards it is to believe in yourself. You made me believe in my flaws.
When Zabuja said 'your words cut deeper than any blade'. I cried. Your words cut through the chains that were binding my heart and set it free. And gave me wings to fly off and reach for my destiny. Your words became my savior. My refuge. You, Naruto-Kun, became my hero and saved me when I didn't even know I needed saving. I'll stop now, I don't want to make Lady Hinata jealous. And the worst, pissed. But before I go, I want you to know, in my loneliness you were my only friend, the only one who guided me out of that dark place I was in, and for that I'll always owe you everything. Believe it.

kishimoto's inspiration
In july i went to a museum in Austin, TX which had an exhibition on ukiyo-e prints from Japan. I came across a couple of things which were Naruto related (or vice-versa, I guess lol). This is not really a surprise since we know how much Kishimoto inspired himself in Shinto and Buddhist mythology to create Naruto, but i thought others here might appreciate the lore since it's pretty cool to see! (sorry in advance for the shitty photo quality, it's hard to photograph in museum settings)
Above is a detail from Prince Hanzoku Terrorized by a Nine-Tailed Fox, 1806, by Katsushika Hokusai. The description read: 'Foxes often appear as tricksters in Japanese mythology, mercurial and fickle creatures that can be harbingers of prosperity or destruction. Among the most venerable and feared foxes were those said to have nine tails, as they could assume the form of humans, usually beguiling young women.' Remind you of someone? I find it interesting how Kishimoto transformed the idea and really shaped Naruto around this creature. Even the sexy jutsu comes from here!!
And here are The Whirlpools of Awa, from the series Setsugekka [Snow, Moon, and Flowers], 1857, by Utagawa Hiroshige. 'The whirlpools at Awa are created when the tide rushes through the Naruto Straits between the islands of Awaji and Shikoku in southern Japan. Hiroshige favored them as a subject from the 1830s onward;' Maybe we finally know what Uzushiogakure looks like!
It would probably be pretty cool to do a deep dive into stuff like this and compare it side by side with Kishimoto's depictions vs. mythological renderings (and even real life places, it seems!). Maybe I'll do it one day.

Uchiha Loremastering
Sup senjunators and uchihanators. I was wondering if anyone can help me find out where exactaly it is said that Izuna is the second eldest of Tajima's children. This AM I finally found where it called Madara "长男" (I only have simplified characters on my keyboard), and that ruined everything for me, since I didn't peg him as an eldest child (plus I'm not gonna go into it too much, but it's unrealistic to be like “everyone either lived to adulthood or died on the battlefield at age 5, no in between."), but now I wanna be clear on where Izuna stands in the lineup of Tajima's sons. The wiki is usually really good w sources, but for the fact of "Izuna is the second eldest", there's no direct citation for me to investigate.
Anywho, I appriciate the help in advance!

Naruto Rewrite:
Disclaimer this is my opinion NOT fact. I’m just throwing out ideas that I’ve been thinking about for a while. Naruto and Naruto Shippuden belongs to Masashi Kishimoto
Konohagakure was created using the original Senju and the remaining Uchiha
Still have Hashirama and Bro as the first and second Hokage respectfully
As the village grow they added in the other clan per usual with one added detail being there still their own group. There clans still have homes, entertainment, bars, etc they just work together. Hokage is president but the villages are Congress.
They create the anbu as secret service and agents for the super secret stuff, ran by Danzo since he offered himself
By separating the Uchiha’s the remaining that didn’t die from war have a different sharingan from the other half that stayed
The rinnegan (Nagato’s eyes) is still the Uzumaki but made 1000% times better by God Tree ring, but existing out side of him
The old akatuski still existed for peace and then to bring ten alive and break Kaguya out of sky jail
Nagato still was an orphan with his friends that got taught by Jiraiya who went off on their own for world peace
Jiraiya didn’t abandon them they took off to explore the world and he later got news they all “died”
Obito still gets crushed by a rock saving Kakashi and Rin
Madara saves Obito since where he died he found the hidden tree by accident near death, and decided to train him since he’s old
Obito goes starts to side with the dark side since no one’s looking for him, black zetzu uses modify cells to save his crushed half
Kakashi kills rin, which Obito sees and starts his turn into the dark side further
Before Madara “dies”, he gives Obito one of his eyes so group A and B eyes are in Obito plus the fruit from the tree bonus of aging slower
Obito trains to get better and eventually goes to the ten tail statue where on the way they meet the original Akatsuki group near death, offer the two remaining a place and special rings to show the world true peace pain

Oh i was just thinking since he technically doesn't have a last name
No, he technically doesn't have a last name (unless you consider "Kazekage" to be his last name, which PERSONALLY I strongly dislike).
Actually, did you know that Gaara did originally have a last name?
It was Fuuma!
Well...Technically the surname Fuuma was actually the name belonging to a character named Kotarou Fuuma who was the concept of who Gaara would eventually become.
Kishimoto was pretty committed to Fuuma, too, but his editor refuted it. This went back and forth until Kishimoto's editor suggested the name "Gaara", which Kishimoto liked the sound of.
Turns out, though, the editor was inspired by Gaara Yuzawa....A ski resort in Japan called GALA Yuzawa (the editor just suggested to use Kanji that meant "self loving demon" or "Gaara")
Pretty ironic that the character known for living in the desert was named after a snowy resort!
(So if you even see people refer to Gaara as Gaara Yuzawa...they may be giving him the surname from the resort that he's named after lol).

i just had this weird thought that maybe the reason why Naras are so smart is because they're all just reincarnated souls of their predecessors.
It also due to this that they're always bored and sleepy.
It's cause they're all so old, and tired of their souls being recycled every other two generations.

attention naruto fandom
hi
help me. i’m writing a story and i just can’t find the piece of canon knowledge/lore i’m looking for, so hopefully one of you has more of a brain than me and can give me the answer i need
is there anywhere in canon (preferably manga, but if you only have anime that’s ok) where we’re shown a jutsu that allows you to shapeshift and take someone else’s appearance, a complete copy with voice and all? if yes, does that include someone’s techniques + chakra stores or do you keep your own repertoire of jutsus and general power level?
i know there’s the team gai fight but it’s again copies of themselves, and i have the vague memory of that scene where sakura kills a false neji but i think that might just be anime filler lore and not the actual canon storyline from the manga? might be wrong tho
and if such a technique exists, does it have a name? does it follow rules? better yet, do you have a link to the moment in canon or a wiki page? anyway any and all piece of knowledge from any of you would be so welcome
thank you thank you
tagging a few ppl just in case @mouseymightymarvellous @raendown @thekatthatbarks @fineillsignup @the-formerone

…and all of this has just answered a question I’ve been asking forever. Neji blew the whistle on his clan at the chunin exams finals and no one batted an eye. Not because they either condoned or opposed what the Hyuga clan was doing to its own members, but because Neji was dangerously close to exposing this alleged international human trafficking ring to a global audience. Sure, this poor kid could get justice for his father if any of the multiple world leaders present spoke up. But then they’d have to acknowledge why this poor kid needs justice for his father. (Because he was offered up as a human sacrifice to Kumo after, you guessed it, Hinata was almost trafficked.) And that wouldn’t be profitable, now would it?
The kid probably doesn’t understand all that and doesn’t need to, not today or ever. Maybe if Naruto hits him hard enough, he’ll conveniently decide to or forget to stop caring about the very valid points he’s making.
Human Trafficking in the Shinobi World
Human trafficking was something that was more explicitly introduced during Hidan and Kakuzu’s arc, and its presence brings up a lot of dark questions for the setting. The location of the black market body drop off seems to be hidden from the public, but is still located in Fire Country and is relatively close to Konoha itself. Kakuzu is paid a whopping thirty million ryo for the task of murdering a Konoha member and turning in his corpse, and we are told this is a lot of money.
But why is this business allowed to operate within Fire Country, especially when it both encourages and rewards bounty hunters and criminals to prey on Konoha nin? It is clearly not well hidden, as Konoha and Morino Ibiki immediately apprehend Zangei around a day after he met with Kakuzu. Furthermore, how is a black market able to pay out such massive amounts of money to bounty hunters? Where does their profit come from?
After a little thought, the answer to these questions should be obvious:
Not only is human trafficking tolerated, if not outright endorsed, by the Hidden Villages, they are also their primary customers.

À sombra do Hokage
Quando eu era jovem, antes de toda essa história de vila e Kage, meu clã vivia livre. Morávamos à beira de um grande e belo lago junto às nossas pequenas colinas floridas e templos de meditação. Lembro de correr pelos campos e colher as mais belas flores que eu encontrasse para meus pais, sempre que chegavam de viagem. Eles saíam em pequenos grupos. Diziam que iriam fazer importantes missões e que eu não devia me preocupar. Eu sempre esperava brincando com os garotos gordinhos da montanha vizinha.
Naquela vez foi diferente. Tinha chegado uma carruagem de alguém importante. Nunca tinha presenciado aquilo, todos ficaram curiosos. Daquela vez, um grupo maior tinha se formado e até mesmo aqueles homens gordinhos da montanha se reuniram ali. "Querido, não se preocupe, quem sabe nos traga uma lilás da próxima vez?", foi a última coisa que minha mãe disse a mim…
Depois de muito tempo sem sinal de que voltariam, fui perguntar a Grande Anciã se podia me ajudar a saber. Ela tinha olhos brancos e cegos que eram cobertos por um véu lilás sob um chapéu largo feito de flores e seus talos. Assim que entrei na tenda, ela levantou a cabeça, quase como se pudesse me enxergar, e tirou o seu chapéu dizendo "Então era você... quem eu esperava...". Ela tinha um símbolo estranho que apareceu do nada em sua testa. "Acho que vai... precisar disso...", falou lentamente tirando uma flor lilás que prendia seus longos cabelos grisalhos e esticando a mão em minha direção. Quando toquei sua mão, meus olhos se abriram... eu via além deles, dentro da minha cabeça. Pude enxergar milhares de coisas ao mesmo tempo, milhares de pensamentos. Foi fantástico, era como se eu pudesse enxergar dentro de cada pessoa, o que ela faz, o que pensa, o que sente. Vi andarilhos de cabelos amarrados e até mesmo os gordinhos das montanhas. De repente, através dos olhos de alguém, pude ver meus pais. "Para trás Hashirama, Tobirama!", o homem dizia. E em sua mente eu lia "Devem ser aliados dos Uchiha tenho que matá-los!". Meu pai correu para frente do homem gritando "Fuja Azula! Volte! Por nosso filho!". Minha mãe conseguiu escapar. Assisti, pelos olhos de seu assassino, meu pai morrer, li o que ele pensou, vi o que ele sentiu ao enfiar aquela lâmina. Nunca vou esquecer seus olhos perdendo o brilho enquanto caía de joelhos. Vi aqueles dois garotos carregarem seu corpo, e todos aqueles homens abrirem e mexerem nele... A Grande Anciã então começou a desaparecer em pétalas lilases. Pode ter durado um segundo, mas para mim foram dias. Naquele único segundo eu deixei de ser criança e uma alma envelhecida e atormentada habitava em mim. Eu não podia suportar aquelas coisas.
Depois de uns dias, minha mãe retornou. Ela vinha com um clã nômade chamado Nara. Estava ferida, mas estava viva. Entreguei-lhe a flor lilás, contando tudo que havia acontecido comigo. Seus olhos tremeram, suas mãos cobrindo o rosto não podiam esconder as lágrimas. Ela então começou a fazer selos e , em seguida, botou a mão sobre a minha testa: "Arte Yamanaka Ancestral: Selo das 7 flores". Eu não lembrei de mais nada daquele dia... até chegar a morte do meu filho por aquele demônio de duas caudas! O selo com o kanji de flor (花), aquele que tive por toda minha vida, tinha se rompido.

Team 7 gets zapped into the warring states era but it's like, team 7 either mid or directly after wave-arc.
They're babies!! They're untrained little babies!!! None of them have gotten that good good character development yet!! Kakashi is still actively desperately wanting to not teach them!! (tho he may have just gotten his "ahh fuck. I actually have to teach them, huh." Moment)
Sasuke looks like a carbon copy of a younger Izuna and it's going to cause problems
Naruto thankfully doesn't look much like an Uzumaki, but his tendency to very loudly introduce himself is going to get him into trouble
Going w my usual flavor of "the Hatake are a very small but very famous clan known for being fucking insane", people are seeing Kakashi and going "oh god oh fuck what are one of THOSE guys doing here oh sage preserve us please don't eat me" as Kakashi just kinda stands there like 🧍♂️
Sakura is the only one safe from not being fucked up and over her clan, good for her!
-> back to the Hatake thing.
The kids still know virtually nothing about their sensei so they're learning all this stuff about his clan and believing every word of it, from the believable rumors to the insane.
Sakura, in a hushed, worried voice: "Sensei,, is it true ur clan eats people??"
Kakashi, who's father died before he could tell him almost anything about their clan and genuinely doesn't know but at this point is starting to get a little worried about it:
Kakashi, who also never passes up the opportunity to fuck with someone: "only stupid little students who ask stupid little questions <3"
Sakura and Sasuke: *worriedly look at a confused Naruto*
For convoluted reasons they run into the Hatake of the era and after introductions they look at the kids and are like,
"Oh!!! Ok, so this is your kid, right? :)" pointing at Sakura.
And Kakashi is like. ",,no."
"Ohhh, ok. So this one is your kid then?" *points at Naruto*
",,,,,,,,no."
They look at him confused then nod at Sasuke. "So then that one's your kid, right?"
"None of them are my children."
*visibly disapproving / disbelieving side eye*
One big difference between this and the team ro time travel one is how much less trustworthy Kakashi comes off to literally everyone who looks at him.
He's a trained adult shinobi, probable bloodline thief (with no way to prove his innocence), and he has 3 children from 3 different clans (2 of which are indirectly enemies bc the Uzumaki is a Senju ally) (1 of which might have a direct relation to the Uchiha main house) and comes from an infamously volatile "wild clan" from another country entirely (Iron country)
He is NOT getting out of this with talk no jutsu bullshit. He has a target on his back from day 1 and it will take a minor miracle to get even a single person hear him out
Anyways uhh—
Saying Tajima and Butsuma are still alive but due to die in some months (till team 7 accidentally interfere and somehow accidentally save Tajima, maybe also Butsuma but I'm more biased towards Tajima so I'm thinking just him actually)
Kakashi sees baby Kagami and feels like he's been hit by a truck bc he looks just like a miniature Shisui and he has hang-ups about his "suicide"
Half-Hatake Tobirama is catching HEAT from Kakashi's antics. Why does one of ur cousins have a sharingan. Where did he get those children. Do you know anything about this. Is it your duty to help hunt him down bc hes your blood. If not yours then it's definatley the Hatake's, call them immediately and tell them to clean up their mess.
Bloodline theft is like THE ultimate no-no for all shinobi, especially in this era. To the point that even ancient enemies will sometimes temporarily set aside grudges to kill bloodline theives. Kakashi is so fucked, someone get him out of there
Mmmm there are like still bits and pieces of thoughts floating around in my head for this but I can feel myself getting distracted and want to get back to art fight so I'll leave it here for now

There are so many naruto time travel fics out there but what I need SPECIFICALLY is an ANBU era team of Kakashi, Tenzo, Itachi, and Shisui getting flung into the founders era.
Like. Ok just looking from the political side of it that's;
A) 2 very young and VERY powerful Uchiha's (one of which is the future clan head!! Politics!!)
B) A very fucked up baby mokuton user who's still in the middle of being deprogrammed and can totally pass for Senju
C) The free wild card that is Hatake clan lore on top of having a stolen sharingan. On top of *that* him being the team leader of a team of kids who, in the time period context, should both be at eachothers throats and probably not be expected to obey the commands of someone not only from another clan but a way smaller one
Theres SO much potential there!! So many political implications in virtually ALL of the directions!!!!
Yk what as I'm typing this out I'm having ✨️ideas✨️ so let's make some story points to sort those out:
• I think itd be neat to have this happen like. A year? Ish? Before the massacre? So age wise, and full disclaimer I'm referencing Google and Wikipedia rn so I could totally be wrong, I think that's :
Kakashi (18)
Tenzo (17)
Itachi (12)
Shisui (15)
Could be wrong about the ages but honestly it's my world you're just living in it, so.
Then me going totally purely off of my own headcannons, were going to say they came in a about a year before Izuna died and place the founders ages as:
Madara (23)
Hashirama (23)
Izuna (19)
Tobirama (18)
Big fan of Tobirama being the youngest between the 4 but projecting the aura of someone as old as like. Idk, however old Madara is. Very funny to me, 10/10
• I'm personally a big fan of dogteeth kakashi so we're running with that all the way home. Also a huge fan of the "Hatake's are a distant, more feral cousin of Inuzuka clan" hc along with some sprinklings of "back in the day they had a bit of a Reputation(tm) for being a 'lill wild, and everyone generally tries to avoid them. Which isn't too much of a problem because theyre a very small out of the way clan from Iron, they just have a big reputation in contrast to their size.
In more modern times tho, along with (obviously) having dwindled down to a single depressed teenager, they've become a lot tamer over the years due to village life. Kakashi is a Hatake, 100%, but he is NOT up to the standards of this time. Which becomes a bit funny when people see him, go "oh FUCK it's a Hatake" and then start edging slowly towards the door like he's about to rip their throat out with his teeth. Meanwhile he's standing there like 🧍♂️"am I that ugly."
Give me a scene where, finally used to this reaction to him from the general shinobi population, the team starts to use it to their advantage.
"Give us the scroll or we'll let the Hatake off the leash to have his fun with you. He's been awfully hungry latley you know, hasn't had fresh meat in days"
Kakashi, feeling kind of stupid, gave his best growl.
It caused an almost immediate, embaressed flush to rise to his face, but he didn't let up. It sounded more like an almost pathetic puppy growl than anything to his ears, but apparently it was enough to convince the trembling enemy nin because he slowly lifted the scroll up in offering.
Wow. Now he couldn't tell if he was embaressed for himself or for this guy.
Probably both to be honest.
• So like. Itachi is the clan heir. That's big. That's important. Let's do something with that.
First off, I had a great time reading this one fic (tho I don't even remember what the fic itself was about now, oops) where a plot point of it was how Sasuke is just a walking stereotype of main house Uchiha. Like people look at him and they don't just go "oh that's an Uchiha." They go "oh fuck that's an UCHIHA Uchiha." He's so fucking painfully, obviously related to the very tippy top of the clan that anyone not blind can tell. It's in the way he looks, it's in the way he talks and treats those around him, it's in the way he fucking holds himself. You look at him and every other stereotype about the Uchiha clan is there in big, bold letters. (On top of that he's also a dead wringer for Izuna, which I'm such a sucker for and desperatley wish people would do more with)
So like let's give that to Itachi here because it's so fun for several reasons.
First off; Sasuke in this is like. Straight up a doppelganger of Izuna, just a few generations apart. They could be twins. Itachi, as I'm sure you are aware, is Sasuke's big brother. So let's take some liberties and say that Itachi could absoloutley pass as a blood sibling to Izuna and Madara.
He is however 12, so we're also going to say that the only people who get to make this connection is anyone who's seen the siblings when they were also at a similar age.
On top of that however he has the 'walking amalgamation of all the stereotypes of the main Uchiha house' so anyone who isn't blind will look at him and assume he's somewhere in the sphere of 'important main house person' tho who really knows how distant the relation may be exactly. No one !! That's who !!!
Second; He's the fucking clan heir!! What the fuck!! This bit would have the most impact after all the messy time travel reveals when things have settled down a bit, so it'll sit in the back pocket for a bit. Save it for some fun shaking up later down the line so we don't run out of all the fun reveals too fast and bore the readers, yk?
When it is brought up tho it'd be fun to maybe have some fucky Itachi and Madara mutual understandings of the way things work.
• So. Madara is like a bit of a scary bed time story to Uchiha children, right? Like. "Ooo make sure you don't get too obsessive or fall too deep into your grief and always stay loyal to the village or you'll end up just like Madara!!"
Something something Uchiha-Village relationships are tense as hell, something something Madara fucking over a lot of the clan with his whole. Everything., Something something scapegoat and old stories, something something 'people have probably been talking a lot more about how "god dammit this all started with Madara" in recent years.'
Now with that in mind let's take a look of what our time travelers think of Madara:
Itachi is a good Konoha soldier. Itachi (as has been very much fucking proven) would rather beat a possible problem before it even exists with a hammer till it dies an ugly bloody death than even RISK it blossoming into a proper problem. Itachi does not like Madara. Itachi personally, quietly thinks they should maybe wait till the village is formed then carefully arrange a little accident for him before he goes off the rails. He, even more quietly, maybe even thinks it would be a kindness. Allow him to be remembered well by the village instead of scorned.
Shisui I think is cautiously optimistic about him. He's the kind of guy who gives the benefit of the doubt, who weighs the options, risk and reward, but includes things like hope and compassion in his calculations. Yes, Madara was a uhh. Thing. That happened. But in every story his big blow up always come from one specific event; Izuna's death. So if they stop that from happening, wouldn't it secure both a better future for them and Madara? The history books never went into detail about Izuna, he doesn't know what he's like, but maybe his involvement in the future, on Konoha's side, could lead to even more profits for them long term. At the end of the day he's not against killing Madara (though to be clear, they are at first operating on trying to avoid all interactions with historical events and return home without touching things) but it'd be nice, to manage to get a happy ending for everyone. Unrealistic maybe, but nice.
Mmmm hear me out actually, maybe Shisui, after interacting with him a bit, finds that Madara reminds him of Itachi too. They definatley both have that "I would do unspeakable things to even dream of my loved just one more time" energy, if you know what I mean
Anyways; Kakashi and Tenzo are both neutral on Madara. Yes, they learned about how he betrayed the village when young just like everyone else, but they weren't getting the bed time stories and "do this and you'll end up just like him" warnings like the Uchiha's. They're possibly leaning into negative but are detached from the situation enough to just go "well he hasn't done it yet and his brother is still alive so he won't any time soon" and be done with it
• Now, on the the total opposite side of the spectrum you have Hashirama and Tobirama. People are brought up in Konoha to fucking IDOLIZE these guys. You can not tell me our team of time travelers wouldn't be at least a little awed to speak with them.
I think Tenzo would be the most wide eyed about Hashirama, both for the baseline "holy shit that's the Shodai Hokage" and also that fun juicy mokuton user imposter syndrome he has going on for him. That guys DNA is inside his body!!! Holy shit wait does that mean if someone did a blood relation test with them he might read as being related to him?? Fuck were gonna pocket that for now but like. Mmmmm potential.
I'd say Itachi is the most hesitant about Tobirama but again, village loyalist, so.
You know what tho maybe Shisui is the most hesitant about him (though still largely positive) he both def grew up looking up to him but can also see the anti-Uchiha policies people inact now with the implications that Tobirama would have approved of it. He doesn't know if he would, but like, he has to wonder.
Kakashi is probably the most normal about them (and also has experience in being close to a hokage (Minato) to know that at the end of the day they are painfully human) Don't get me wrong, he's still in some sort of awe! He might get a little lightheaded at the thought of seeing the God of Shinobi in proper battle, or the possibility to see the famed genius of Tobirama with all the different jutsu's he's invented. You can't tell me Kakashi didn't spend a little extra time reading about him when he was trying to make Chidori. Honestly I'm gonna roll with that and say he had a bit of a phase as a kid where he was a total fan boy. Maybe sprinkle in the good old HalfHatake!Tobirama hc to add some faint daydreams a lonley babykashi had after his father's death, about getting to meet him as family. Like cmon, little genius idolizing and projecting on some big history figure only to find out they're actually related? Can you say potential?
Anyways he did eventually grow out of the phase, probably got unattached to it all and lost interest after the whole "losing everything he loved" bit of his life. And at the end of the day, he doesn't have any real complex personal hang ups on the founders like the others do. Thus, most normal.
• And then my favorite most special boy, Izuna !! He's for sure the one they're all most neutral about. He's not actually taught about in the academy? There's probably some throw away line about him in some history books somewhere, but he died young and was quickly buried by the looming shadow of Konoha. The only real knowledge had about him in modern times is just a vague "Yeah he got killed by Tobirama which lead to peace being made but also lead to Madara losing his shit"
Poor Izuna he's the linchpin for it all but was left an unremarkable footnote of history. My boy deserves so much better
Tenzo doesn't actually even know who he is, that boy got bare minimum education under Danzo and Izuna was NOT included.
Itachi and Shisui mmmaybe have some small little fun fact here or there buried in stories from the older members of the clans but like. It's gonna amount to just "yeah he had a great katon" and thats about it.
I WILL SAY HOWEVER. Itachi sees him and instantly is that one PTSD dog meme. Sasuke is a BABY but holy shit Izuna looks exactly like he'd expect him to grow up as and it's making him FEEL THINGS. Also he's so bratty little brother coded !! He's an entire 7 years older than Itachi but Ifachi keeps fucking up and trying to big brother him it's embaressing.
And ofc Itachi didn't go into the first meeting thinking he'd see some weird older mirror version of his beloved baby brother who he misses and worries about very very much. So like. There's for sure going to be some conflict there. If their first meeting is a scuffle (which it probably will be) I think Itachi would keep hesitating to attack. On full run away mode. Which is probably for the best bc he shouldn't try to fight Izuna anyways honey he's like double your bodyweight and you're strong but you aren't THAT strong.
• Pointing back at both the 'Itachi does not like Madara and has quiet thoughts about how it'd possibly be in everyone's interest to just kill him' and the 'Itachi and Madara quietly bond over being clain head/heir during stressful times (w pressure from the elders especially)
I can see 2 outcomes of a potential bonding conversation with them:
1) They come to understand eachother better.
Madara wants to be on good terms, he looks at this kid and sees one of his brothers eyes and the others quiet determination. He can tell Itachi doesn't like him for some reason, and it's frustrating because he doesn't know why. He wants him to like him. He wants to be able to offer his hand and have it taken. It hurts, to be looked at with such suspicion from a face that has traces of Izuna's.
Meanwhile Itachi . . . Itachi looks at Madara and he sees someone who gets it. Gets it like no one ever has. It scares him. He looks up at this man, this horror story he's been told to fear becoming, and he sees himself. And this realization shakes him. It makes him think, makes him wonder. He's so, so sure of his loyalty to Konoha. More sure than he is of anything else in the world. But . . . But if something happened to Sasuke, if he had to choose—
And maybe it softens something in him too, along with the (honestly healthy) dose of fear. It forms a little crack in his shell, just enough to maybe, maybe let Madara through. Just a hair.
Or 2) we pull one of those "The conversation ends with them agreeing verbally but mentally they're on 2 VERY different notes."
Madara, nodding and looking at Itachi meaningfully: "Yeah it can be hard, but all we can really do is try to make the world a safer place for the ones we love. (To create Konoha, to keep my clan safe. Izuna safe. And now to keep you safe too.)
Itachi, nodding slowly: "Yeah. No matter how hard it is (even though I think I understand you more than anyone else Ive ever met) we have to try to make the world a safer place (by killing you in your sleep once Konoha is formed) for the ones we love (My clan. My village. Sasuke.)"
• Also pointing back at the 'Hatake warring clan era reputation,' the 'Tobirama is half Hatake' and also now pointing at Tobirama's title as the White Demon. Small thing but it'd be neat if there was some small throw away line that the nickname lowkey started in part because of the absoloutley terrifying reputation of the Hatake combined with Tobirama's own Everything(tm) like it just had some influence on how some view him. Give me Uchiha's making dog jokes ab him it'll be funny
• Ok but now the actual plot thoughts. Yeah I know I kept you waiting sorry about that.
So time travel! Probably due to a mission gone wrong. Some ruins or some ancient crumbling scroll that wasn't even supposed to do fucking time travel but was so old and corroded that it somehow managed to transform into a whole other seal by pure bad luck. Or good luck I guess, considering it could have just turned into a nuke.
Our favorite team of disasters are very very alarmed !!! What the fuck !!! Obviously they don't default to thinking time travel, but they immediatley know something is wrong. The landscape has changed, though the big landmarks are still there. The mission was complete anyways with no injuries so they just retreat to Konoha. Only oops !! It's not fucking there!!!
Queue alarm.
Shisui is the first one to suggest time travel because he's quirky like that. And there's a very easy way to confirm this theory.
(Also we're going to say that Konoha's location is a valley a few miles out from the Naka River that borders the Senju / Uchiha territories.)
This is convenient because that verification method involves checking in on where Itachi and Shisui know the old Uchiha compound should rest.
They do it in full stealth mode, the second they saw Konoha was missing Kakashi as team leader decided they'd treat the land as enemy territory. They all agreed ofc, for all they knew this WAS enemy territory now.
And, ofc, yeah!! There's the old Uchiha compound!! Being active!!! There are people there!!!
"What are the odds Fugaku-sama decided to have the clan return to their homeland for ahh, cultural enrichment?" Kakashi asked weakly.
"Time travel." Was the only reply he got from Shisui, whispered reverently as the boy vibrated with excitement on the branch.
Itachi just gave him a look, radiating a level of dissaproving disbelief that no normal 12 year old should be able to make. Kakashi would know, he was that not-normal 12 year old once.
From there they decide a no interference policy. Hands off guys!! They probably debate it tho, like, a good amount. They all have ✨️opinions✨️ except maybe Tenzo who's lowkey still in the middle of trying to learn how to be a person and is following Kakashi's lead 99% of the time. Especially since they're still in mission mode and this is like a super serious discussion and he really does know the least ab the founders overall.
They probably debate the merits of going to Uzushiogakure bc seal help but it's really far and they don't actually have like, just any leverage with them. They already decided not to fuck with the future so it isn't like they can trade secrets and warnings. At least if shit happens here they have some plausible deniability, being, yk, 2 uchiha's and a senju-passing guy with Mokuton. Kakashi's kinda fucked tho in that regard but he isn't going to be doing the party ANY favors with his clan heritage.
Which means it's time to potentially get desperate enough to interact with Tobirama !!! Which will inevitably lead to them bumping into a Uchiha patrol or something!!! I don't know honestly
• Anyways want Hashirama and Tenzo to interact. He has so many issues like holy shit. Let Hashirama give him the hug he deserves. I want him to violently adopt him. New brother acquired!!!
I said before but Tenzo is still reprogramming from ROOT. Let Hashirama impact that! Let him help! They can make flower crowns and photosynthesize together idk
Hashirama would be so happy to have another mokuton user, I think they should be able to sense eachother extra strong and like 'ping' off of eachothers chakra, it'll be fun
▪︎ I'm not thinking toooo hard about power scaling and this is fanfiction so a) don't quote me on this and b) for the love of all that is holy don't take my words as gospel
But for this fic specifically I'm ranking the founders and Team Ro, weakest to strongest (in a clean, fair fight head on w no time to prepare) :
Itachi (he's fucking 12 guys. But also he is like. FRACTIONS under Tenzo and Shisui. If he were 13 I'd let him be above or at the same level but like. He's 12. Cmon.)
Tenzo - Shisui (they're like JUST under the next 2 tho like seconds behind)
Izuna - Tobirama
Kakashi ( by the skin of his fucking teeth and the advantage that is his stupid amount of jutsu's and lack of self preservation)
Madara - Hashirama
And again that's not counting like. The specific situations, time given to prepare, potential dirty tricks they could play (I think the Konoha tricks would play a fraction dirtier than the others, who are slightly more used to big open battles vs the ANBU squad who does all sorts of shit in all sorts of places) plus like. Mental state and team ups.
Tenzo or Shisui couldn't take down Izuna or Tobirama but if they teamed up I'd allow it. Kakashi would get his ass kicked by Hashirama or Madara but he could survive a minutes longer than the others would
Itachi is doing his best
But like
He's 12 guys
I love him and he is terrifyingly competent but he won't win 1 on 1 with anyone unless he has some sort of advantage. Minus Shisui and Tenzo who he does have the advantage of regularly fighting, so.
• I think they do get to go back home in the end. It takes a ton of work tho and they probably do need to get Mito's help with it, Kakashi can show them the seal they got brought here with but it's an ACTUAL one in a trillion miracle it didn't fucking atomize them. So it needs a lot of touch ups
Anyways !!!
I have a little more rattling around in my brain but I'm really tired and also starting to think about other things now so I'm gonna stop here. Might come back and add to it later so stay tuned if you're into that
Full disclaimer I'm not gonna write this. I don't have the proper energy and it'd probably end up being too ambitious of a project if I tried. I'd love to see it happen tho, so like !! Big open invitation to absoloutley anyone who might want to take even a fraction of the ideas I've listed.
@ me if you do tho I wanna see the final product

Naruto Rewrite: Naruto back story
Disclaimer this is my opinion NOT fact. I’m just throwing out ideas that I’ve been thinking about for a while. Naruto and Naruto Shippuden belongs to Masashi Kishimoto
Naruto is kept a secret from the village, they don’t won’t people to know he’s the nine tails
As Naruto grows up Hiruzen tries to give Naruto a normal life the best he can
Unfortunately as he’s busy being Hokage and not many people can know he existed he grows up lonely
Naruto wants love and parents so he acts out to receive attention once he’s old enough to attend ninja school
Naruto doesn’t study or takes anything seriously since no one can really make him at home
Mizuki gives him the “love and attention” so he looks up to him, He even begins dressing like him (the bandana and added the googles)
Mizuki tricks him to stealing the shadow clone scroll but Naruto reads it some out of curiosity (learning shadow clone jutsu)
Naruto gets saved and adopted by Iruka after he saves him
Iruka gives him a home (Naruto doesn’t live in an apartment that place is just his bedroom, which is Iruka’s attic)
While Konaha 12 noticed they still saw him as immature and rowdy
Naruto doesn’t have any real friends yet as everyone saw him as annoying and troublesome (lost friendship with the boys as they grow up)
Naruto also starts his crush on Hinata and Sakura
He manages to graduates on time with his class surprising everyone (including himself)
Naruto proves himself to be a changed kid and makes they effort to be friends with everyone slowly but surely 
He also trains hard and surprise Sasuke and Sakura with his intelligence as they thought he was an idiot (he’s just goofy autistic)
Naruto is street smart, not really book smart
If they get lost in a forest, he knows the way, fishing, hunting, berry picking
He understands herbs and spices due to his upbringing 
When team 7 where learning to climb trees Naruto could climb water falls but not trees (it’s more chaotic)
He begins to real learn how to be his own person without copying people around him
Notably more calm but still short tempered
