Who would have predicted this?
Tumblr media
Oh, that’s right. Everyone who just let dumbass trump do whatever he wanted like assassinate Soleimani without first gathering all the members of congress to evaluate the situation like the president IS SUPPOSED TO DO WHEN THEY MAKE A DECISION THAT COULD RESULT IN ALL OUT WAR.
Another fact, trump didn’t have actual concrete evidence that Soleimani was going to attack the US Embassies in the Middle East. When asked about the possibilities of the attacks, he stated it "probably could have been.” Also, let’s not forget why he actually moved forward with the assassination and that is because he claimed that Soleimani was "saying bad things about our country.” REALLY?! Because of shit talking?! You risk war and the lives of everyone in the US because of a few mean words? In case you’re unaware, EVERY COUNTRY FUCKING HATES AMERICA. What a fucking baby.
Not many people know who Qasem Soleimani is and why it was such a huge deal that he was assassinated without congress approval. So I’m going to lay it on as simple as I can.
Tumblr media
He’s basically Danzo Shimura, the konohakagure, in the Naruto Shippuden series.
Tumblr media
The second in command. The one who does what needs to be done no matter how dirty his hands get. The one that runs the Anbu Black Ops and the secret Root division. He has more kills and political influence than the Hokage. He basically dictates what will happen even though he reports in to the Hokage.
Almost everyone who has very little knowledge and facts are comparing his death to Osama Bin Laden.
Tumblr media
Killing Soleimani is the same as killing the vice president of the united states. It is an act of war. What’s worse, we’ve known about him and his dirty deeds for decades. Multiple presidents and congress knew but continued to let him do whatever he wanted because the repercussions of killing him are far worse and the first thing that I thought about when I heard he was assassinated, not just killed but ASSASSINATED, is this line from Captain America The Winter Soldier.
Tumblr media
Because that is legit what he and the Qod Force, his covert ops units, specialise in. So, when they finally attack on american soil, it won’t be with missiles, suicide packs, or anything big and flashy that draws attention. It’ll be exactly like what Bucky says.
So to sum it up:
Soleimani is more powerful than the president of Iran.
Is responsible for many successful assassinations, terrorism, and uncoventional warfare that Iran supports in mulitple countries, including america.
To call him just a terrorist is the biggest understatement ever. Yes, he was an evil man and killing him is not like killing just another terrorist. Again, killing him is an act of war that the Supreme Leader of Iran has already vowed “HARSH REVENGE.”
The US is not ready and has not engaged in this level of assassinations in decades. Iran will not respond with traditional warfare. They will most likely carry out operations ALL OVER THE GLOBE. US embassies across the world are no longer safe. Soldiers overseas and in the states are no longer safe. Even civilians are in danger. Soleimani and the Qod are responsible for killing hundreds of US soldiers at the very minimum, maybe even more. And for those of you thinking “only hundreds doesn’t sound like a lot,” first of all, what the fuck is wrong with you. Second, you have to remember, they are a covert kill squad. Those soldiers would never have seen it coming. They weren’t killed in a gun fight. They were assassinated.
And if you think Iran is just another third world country, you are mistaken. They have developed cities, like us. They have access to internet and social media, like us. THEY LOOK LIKE US. Lose whatever racist interpretation you have of Iranians and just think about how fucking scary that is to be killed swiftly by someone who you thought was just another stranger walking down the same street as you, dressed like you, talks like you, and looks like you and people you know. And just like every other country overseas, have more knowledge about america and american history than the average americans have. So when they do attack, we won’t even see it coming.

Konohagakure Military Forces Organization
It took a while but it's finally done.
Tumblr media
HOKAGE
The highest authority of Konohagakure, the face of the Fire Country's military forces and has the duty to lead, administer and protect Konoha and to ensure the maximum prosperity of the village.
KONOHA COUNCIL
The Konoha Council, made up of the village's top officials and people the Hokage trusts. Their duty is to assist the Hokage in governing Konoha and to offer their opinion on decisions that must be made with the greatest benefit to Konoha in mind.
In addition, in case the Hokage is unable to choose his successor, the council is responsible for finding eligible candidates for the position.
Members
Current Hokage - Supreme leader of Konohagakure, the council exists to provide him with different points of view so he can make the best decisions.
Previous Hokage: Although not always possible, if the previous Hokage were alive, he would be part of the council to offer his advice and experience to his successor.
Anbu Commander - Leader of the Ambu Forces of Konoha, as the leader of the forces that work in the shadow of the great tree that is Konoha, Commander Anbu possesses great knowledge of the dark side of the village.
Jonin Commander - Leader of the Regular Shinobi Forces, his job is to manage the basic and specialised forces of Konoha's various departments. It is therefore his duty to report to the Hokage about these forces and what he considers to be the most appropriate use of these forces.
Advisors - These are usually experienced shinobi who have served Konoha and are considered to be shinobi of great renown due to the passage of time, but the Hokage also has the option of including people he trusts among his advisors. 
The Hokage's personal assistant may also be included in the council.
ANBU Black Ops
The Anbu Special Forces are a squad of Konoha's shinobi forces who work in secret, led by the Anbu Commander and only obey the orders of the Hokage.
Everything they do is for the good of Konoha, assassinations, torture and tracking down defected or treacherous ninja, all their operations are done without the public or the regular Konoha forces knowing about them.
They usually work in teams and hide their identities under animal masks and are known only to Konoha's top brass. Age, gender, origin or previous rank do not matter in order to be chosen for the Anbu.
The Anbu is divided into different departments to ensure that the members chosen for a mission have the necessary skills to complete it smoothly.
Hunter Dept. - The duty of this department is to track and keep an eye on targets of interest to Konoha by carrying out various actions such as manipulation or assassination if necessary.
Assasination Dept. - The duty of this department is to assassinate targets that threaten Konoha, often working with political enemies of the village or assassinating the right people for the benefit of the village.
Internal Affairs Dept. - The duty of this department is to deal with Konoha's internal affairs through covert operations under the order of the Hokage. Traitors, spies, or people who would be better off disappearing from Konoha are often targeted.
Infiltration Dept. - The duty of this department is to train its members to be able to infiltrate into enemy forces or countries to gain information or cause chaos within them.
Medical Team - Anbu trained in medical skills to ensure the health and survival of the members of the organisation. 
Watchers Team - They are considered the most public part of the Anbu as they work closely with the Konoha Security Department. Their duty is to maintain internal surveillance of Konoha by watching for traitors and spies or possible plots.
Instructor Team - They are in charge of training new Anbu recruits to meet the organisation's skill requirements.
ROOT: - An unrecognized division of the Anbu that works with the sole purpose of benefiting Konoha no matter what decisions need to be made. Being unrecognized they receive no support from the Hokage of any kind and in case they are discovered by the enemy Konoha will not lift a finger for them.
By joining this organisation you must renounce all your previous life and emotions as Konoha should be the only thing that matters. It is led by Danzo Shimura.
Konoha Regular Forces
Led by Commander Jonin, Konoha's public forces are divided into Basic and Specialized forces that work closely with each other to ensure the smooth running of Konoha's military operations.
Basic Forces
They are made up of shinobi who do not belong to any Konoha department and therefore their work consists solely of carrying out missions assigned by the mission delivery desk.
Because of this, their entire salary is decided by the missions they perform, making their salary irregular as the payment for the missions is divided between Konoha and the mission members.
Academy Student - The lowest rank of Konoha's military forces, their job consists solely of studying to possess the skills expected of a genin, however in emergencies they may be employed to evacuate civilians.
If an academy student demonstrates great skill in any subject they can become a junior member of a Konoha department.
Genin - Low-ranking shinobi divided into two groups, Fresh Genin and Senior Genin.
Fresh Genin are those who have recently graduated from the academy and are part of a team of three genin and one jonin sensei. They perform D-ranked and occasionally C-ranked missions. They are expected to obey and learn from their sensei in order to improve their skills and move up the ranks.
However, there are also genin who are privately tutored by a jounin sensei once they graduate or go directly into a Konoha department and become a junior member if they were not already a junior member during their time at the academy.
Senior Genin are those who have taken a chunin examination and have survived but not passed or have completed a large number of missions and are allowed greater freedom and autonomy.
They have the ability to perform D-rank missions alone and C-rank missions in teams with other senior genin or chunin, in which case their jounin sensei acts as an occasional teacher and advisor as well as being one of those who decide if the genin is suitable for field promotion.
Chunin - Mid-ranking shinobi who have mastered the general skills expected of a shinobi and who have demonstrated sufficient maturity to be entrusted with leadership and security over other ninja. They are expected to possess mastery over an elemental nature. And they are considered the bulk of Konoha's forces.
Once you become a Chunin you have the option of becoming an official member of a Konoha department. And they are usually the ones who carry out the C and B rank missions.
Despite what most people think, there are different ways to become a Chunin:
Chunin exams - These is considered the quickest way to rise through the ranks but also the most dangerous as you risk your life by facing shinobi from other villages.
Field Promotion - Awarded to senior genin who have demonstrated all the skills expected of a chunin during the completion of their missions, to be considered for field promotion it is necessary to have completed 50 D-rank missions, 25 C-ranked missions and at least one B-ranked mission.
Department Promotion - Only awarded to genin who are junior members of a Konoha department and have demonstrated chunin skills. They must still pass an examination conducted by their department head to ensure that they possess all the necessary skills.
Tokubetsu Jonin - Shinobi whose overall skills are superior to Chunin but still below Jonin except in a certain ability in which they surpass most Jonin. They must master at least one elemental nature.
This rank is usually given to members of the various departments of Konoha who due to their specialised work in the departments surpass the jonin in that specific skill. However, it is also given to those who are not members of the departments if they demonstrate great skill.
Jonin - High level shinobi who must be highly proficient in all shinobi skills. Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Bukijutsu, etc and possess control over two chakra natures as well as demonstrating analytical and strategic abilities. To be chosen as a jounin, one must pass a test conducted by two senior jonin.
The jonin are the ones who usually perform A and S rank missions. In addition, once they have completed and passed the teaching course, the jonin have the possibility to become leaders and masters of a team of 3 genin.

If hiruzen (and danzo bc if he was alive itd be him or a puppet hokage he controlls) did die two decades earlier who would become the fifth hokage after Minato died? Like, Kakashi would be too young and inexperienced, they couldn't allow a clan head to do it, and the sannin had all dipped.
Depending on the timeline you use (bc I think there was retconning/unreliable information) orochimaru could have still been around. (If you use anko's age, he had to of been in the village when naruto was born. Anko is 24, was a genin between the ages of 10 to 12, and didn't catch orochimafu's attention until her first chunin exam. So it was at most 13 years before the start of naruto when she recieved her curse mark.)
Orochimaru becomes hokage and raises naruto au.
Cannon plays out with orochimaru still in the village until naruto is born, at which point there's some bullshittery that leads to hiruzen dying. As he dies he names orochimaru his heir under the condition he raises naruto (this condition may or may not be secret blood/soul binding jutsu enforced. Whichever ends up being funnier).
Orochimaru looks at little infant naruto and is like, I hate you and your father, and then carries him off to go claim his hat.
Now, I headcannon orochimaru as being kind of shit at administrative work entirely because he's never done it before and obviously none of hiruzen or Minato advisors want to support him. So he's not having a great time.
Cue his secret root research buddy danzo popping up to try to blackmail him. This lasts about two hours of orochimaru playing along before he kills him and is done with it.
At some point durring the early days of orochimaru settling into his position and dealing with the work that goes into rebuilding a destroyed village mikoto pops up at his house like where is my godson. And orochimaru let's her in and then she's like oh my madara you built him an actual nursery, I expected to find him in a closet. Orochimaru wats to be offended, but he did try that at first.
It is a number of months until orochimaru is able to properly get back into root, at which point, much to his disgust, naruto has started crawling. Orochimaru is still a shit person but he's been distracted away from his immortality bullshit. I'm going to say he was definitly dabbling in curse marks before this but whether or not he put one on anko yet is hard to decide.
Regardless, Anko is frequently forced to babysit naruto and is pissed about it.
But back to root, orochimaru has a moment where he decides that he's not hiruzen or Minato and the nice village act is unnecessary. So he just folds all the parts of root into the corresponding legitimate divisions of the village. Hiding shit is unnecessary when you're a military dictator. Are there division heads who are horrified by all the shit that was going on that they didn't know about (but they know hiruzen and most likly Minato did)? Yep. But what are they gonna say about it? (Especially when it's decades old?) So orochimaru does continue his experiments and some are genuinly horrible, although there is less done on orphans as a side affect of it not being as hidden anymore.
[A note before I continue, I'm not considering the madara rabbit goddess stuff here. It's too complicated and the kind of arc I personally always skip.]
Back to the Uchiha. The lack of people actively trying to screw them over means their social status in the village is much better than it was before. Itachi is probably still pulled into anbu very young, and I think he'd eventually become orochimaru's apprentice. He also hates orochimaru, but that's besides the point. Orochimaru allows it because he still doesn't like administrative shit and eventually plans to go back to his experiments full time. If he didn't have a point to prove he'd of bailed already. Itachi ends up in the assistant position fanon sakura often ends up in for tsunade and Kakashi where they make sure the paperwork is actually done and no extreme diplomatic issue pops up due to their sensei's shit personality.
Speaking of tsunade, she defs comes to visit after the first few years. She kind of ends up just getting into constant arguments with orochimaru (who probably uses toddler/very young child naruto to mess with her often) and reorganize the hospital before leaving again. Jiraya takes longer to visit. He probs had an argument with orochimaru early on, and jiraya is being stubborn while orochimaru knows he'll crawl back eventually.
What else do I need to cover? Naruto loves his wierd pale dad (who does not let him call him dad under any circumstances). He ends up living a very comfortable life. Orochimaru's parenting style is very science based so he never needs anything physically and all the emotional needs are met by mikoto and to a lesser extent anko and Kakashi (who was put on guard duty fir like a week when there was a kyubi kidnaping threat and then just never left). He gets to grow up besties with Sasuke, and does very well in the restructured academy (because the Canon academy doesn't really teach shit and orochimaru made it include harder and more spread out topics with the option of specialization) as he now has a support network to work with his needs.
Anyone who knows me knows sakura is my favorite character. She thrives under the new academy and is able to have all her strengths worked on to the point she's on par or better than naruto and Sasuke when they're put on a team together. (I imagine teams are planned I'm advance to a certain extent. I always find reasoning people give for sakura to be on their team really fun.)
Sasuke is still a dick, but without the trauma and with his mom to put him in his place. Also, like in the manga, he has a bit of reciprocation for sakura's crush (which isn't as strong here), but idk if they'd be endgame.
Orochimaru does come to care for naruto. Because it's naruto. But he is never really affectionate outright. (Naruto knows he loves him though. Which he does in his own way.)
I think im one for now. Enjoy.

Darling, You’re Glowing, Part 5
Part 4
Final part. Message me and I can add some more after the ending.
Tumblr media
Silence. Whispers. Pain. Silence again.
Where am I?
The pain. The pain.
Sunshine, blue skies. Laughter. Love. So much love.
You love him. I love him.
Your eyes snap into focus as you roar, the world coming undone around you.
He’s in danger. You love him. You have to protect him.
Tumblr media
Naruto was fighting for the sake of the village. A right hook, duck, roundhouse kick, clone attack, fight back, fight. He’d been here since the beginning, fighting and running, bringing the focus of the paths to the Hokage tower. The entirety of Anbu were waiting. Kakashi-sensei with his dog mask. Jiriaya had disappeared halfway through the invasion, whispered words from Tsunade’s mouth sending him running.
Fight
But now, the Anbu were pushed back. He was fighting with sage mode on, Ma and Pa with him as he moved. He was losing. He could feel it.
Pain had levelled the area, the entirety of the shinobi district now nonexistent. However, with the help of the T&I division, the Anbu had erected a large barrier, so majority of the civilian and merchant sectors were standing. Still, Naruto moved. He pushed back thoughts of you, knowing if he lost, you’d be brought here. And then, he would have to live without you.
Right then, Naruto feels himself get punched and grabbed. He struggles against the hands of the path, but his sage chakra runs out. He looks up and sees Pain’s mouth moving, but his breaths are getting shorter and he thinks:
“Am I going to die?”
The sand on the ground vibrates, small but he notices. They start bouncing, pebbles flying away. He feels like his heart flies away with them, too.
Because, you’re there. You’re there, fitted with shinobi clothes, hair pushed out of your face, and that sight alone steals his breath. A flicker of your fingers, and roots pull themselves out of the ground. His restraints are gone, and before he can catch up with his thoughts, your lips are on his and lord heavens above, he missed you. The relief, grief and joy all tangle together but he can kiss you, kisses you, until he can’t breathe.
His words fall out of his mouth, spilling against your lips as he moves his hands everywhere to memorize you. You both whisper I love you and I missed you and it’s been four years. His heart feels like its ripping in all directions and healing itself simultaneously. Naruto doesn't close his eyes, doesn't shut them even for a second, scared that he'd miss any part of you. He was memorizing every color in your eyes, every dip between your ribs, every breath, everything.
Naruto is crying, he’s sure of it, but you capture his lips again and he's grabbing your hips and pulling you in closer, as if someone might snatch you away from him. You both share a few more kisses before you crumple, an agonized scream tearing itself out of you. He shouts your name before your eyes glow, no pupils or irises to be seen, as you turn before tearing out of his hands towards a Path.
Nimble fingers fly through seals at super sonic speed, and he can see the water pull itself out of the ground, the wind from the air, whirling around you as you mold them to your liking. It rips into the body, pieces of it flying before turning into dust before his eyes and-
“…god��”
It was terrifyingly beautiful, the power and destruction you were brimming with. The air around you hummed with chakra, vibrated the fabric of existence with it. His clone winks out of existence, and the world turns brighter as sage chakra flows into him. Naruto stares, drinking you in, frozen.
Another Path moves towards him, but your clone is there, and he can feel you unlock your own chakra, nostalgic lighting charging the air, the scent of fire heavy in his nose.
Then, with utter awe and disbelief, he watches as you turn fire into lighting, force it to your liking, whipping it against the Path. It obliterates it into nothing, the hum of its power singing as it moves. Three gashes mark the ground, or trenches are more apt of an description, but you're ripping through them all. The trenches remind him of the claws of a beast.
No one could stand in your way.
The battlefield was silent with the exception of you moving through the enemies, cutting away at them. Oddly, Naruto is reminded of the time when you went to a festival a few years back, watching you move through the different Paths. Every step is a mimicry of the dance you did, and he feels his eyes water. There are cracks adorning your skin now, glowing, and he knows at some fundamental level that you don't have much time left.
Knows he can’t have you anymore.
He flies through the dust you've kicked up, and lands beside you. You both move together, a melody and harmony. The rest of the shinobi watch as you move together, Naruto observing you and matching every step, just like he did all those years ago at the festival. He can hear shouting. But he can’t care, because you’re there. He keeps moving, and soon, fight finishes in a blur. In victory. Until you collapse against him.
"I love you"
And then he’s grabbing at you, pushing your hair back, whispering it back with a fierceness. Your skin is cracked and raw, just like his after he accessed the fox’s power, and he can feel it bubble up. Naruto pushes against it, pushes it down to have some more time with you.
Tsunade pushes him away, her hands glowing green and Sakura rushes behind her with medical supplies. Naruto moves to you, but Kakashi sensei’s there, pulling him back.
“We have to find who was controlling those Paths…”
So, as his heart rips itself out of existence, he leaves, giving you a longing glance as he runs with Kakashi. The forest moves past them in a blur, tears falling from his eyes and then he’s staring at a shell of a man. Rippled eyes stare at him and he finds himself talking. Talking about himself, but talking about you the most. He almost faints at the thought of your body cooling-
Kakashi sensei shocks him a little.
Soon, green illuminates around him, and Naruto heads back, Kakashi sensei’s back strong against him. The crowd greets him, but he moves in a daze.
“Naruto!” Sakura’s voice breaks through the loud rushing in his ears, and he looks to see a smile on her face.
Hope ignites itself like a wildfire in his chest, and the tears flow earnest but he’s running, running to you and there you are. Hooked up and in a coma but not dead, not dead and you’re breathing. Naruto rushes to your side, grabbing your hand, as his body shakes with the force of his sobs.
Tsunade walks into the tent, and explains. How she gave Jiraiya the order, how Nagato’s gift helped them push you into a safe zone.
“However, Naruto, no one can access her mind. We don’t know when she’ll wake up.”
Naruto feels his heart break, but the rise and fall of your chest allows him some room to breathe. Then, Sakura comes and explains the rest.
“She, she’s accessed colossal levels of chakra, and we thought that she wouldn’t survive with none moving through her pathways.” Sakura move along the bed, checking your pulse.
“With the sheer amount she’s used, they’ve been blown open. However, during her comatose state, Kakashi sensei had been doing chakra therapy with Tsunade-sama.” He feels a sense of gratitude wash over him, and he doesn’t know how he’ll ever repay them.
“Her chakra reserves should be able to sustain her when she wakes, and her pathways should shrink enough for her to maintain mobility. We’ll have to teach her chakra control, when she wakes.”She finishes her assessment and leaves the room after giving Naruto a little pat on the back.
He finds her kind for using when and not if.
Days pass, and almost every time, after his shift of working to rebuild the shinobi sector, Naruto spends the rest of his time with you. Speaking to you while holding your hand, kissing your forehead, he’s there all the time. Tsunade reassured him, shows the scans of your brain, which indicate increased energy.
“Even though she burned through all the seals while fighting, she has to get through the mental block. Thankfully, Jiraiya was able to remove all seals from her body, but she’ll have to finish this on her own.” Tsunade gets a far away look in her eye, “finish this just the way she started it.”
And so he whispers encouraged words to you, telling you about the new taijutsu he’s learning, hoping it’d help if you were fighting. But the week moves with its feet dragging through the ground.

It was night when you woke up.
There was an angel on your bed.
Your mind had shattered itself but you’d pulled it back together, his words echoing through the chaos as you built yourself up again. You’d rather not remember it again.
He looked divine, holding your hand and moonlight painted the most gentlest of halos on his head. How blessed you were to see him first when you opened your eyes.
Your voice fought its way through your throat.
“Naruto?”

So, Minato Sama. You've just been given the Hokage position. What's the first 5 things on your official hokage agenda?
Sama? Cue a sheepish grin. What makes you think he has an agenda?
Tumblr media
He has a list. In categorical order.
ANBU ANBU assignments - members, as well as missions - are assigned directly by the Hokage. In the Hokage's absence, the defacto lead is assigned to a trusted aide. During Minato's term, that is Nara Shikaku. There should be no interference from any of the councils unless the Hokage specifically requests it. Also there's this matter of the ROOT division he's looking into. It's a redundant idea. Who the heck came up with it, again? 🤔
Konoha Ninja Academy The Konoha Ninja Academy has been following the same structure since the Nindaime's reign. The times - and frankly, demographics - have changed since then. They need an updated entrance test and assessment methods, as well as a streamlined curriculum that includes introduction to fuuinjutsu.
Hokage Guard Platoon An elite platoon comprised of shinobi handpicked by the Hokage. The purpose of the platoon is to act as an escort unit whenever the Hokage has to travel beyond the village's perimeters i.e., to another village or to the Daimyo's palace. The 'kage' is seen as the strongest shinobi of a hidden village. However, that does not make them infallible. The guard platoon exists to ensure that there is a statistically significant chance of the kage returning to the helm, irrespective of the scenario.
Civilian protection reforms Reforms aimed specifically to protect civilian rights to trade and collaborate with other civilians from friendly villages. Konoha, although a representation of Hi no Kuni's militia, has a sizeable civilian population. Said civilian population dabbles in trade and farming which, if utilized and fostered, will decrease the village's dependence on its shinobi for bringing in funds.
Village Ambassador Program (pending external approval) In the wake of the third shinobi war, the need of the hour is to form better bonds with the victors (as well as the losers). One way of doing that is through Chunin ambassadors who can periodically act as a means of cultural exchange. If this works well enough with Chunin, the program can be extended to include civilian entrepreneurs (in conjunction with #4).

I loved reading that Naruto fic you wrote at the start of 2023 "Bit part", with the SI protag a sweary cut-snake-mean chunin. Honestly the best bit interactions with bby!Kakashi, and his resulting unprofessional language acquisition :) The second best was the way you captured the frustrated pauses and half sentences, as you worked through her perspective. It really captured a heck of a lot of tone that's often missing from fic
One question: you said in some comments that she was a potential anbu/root candidate, but I could never work out why? She referred to herself as a mediocre med nin, so I thought it couldn't be that, other times she might have been hard to notice? Like when she was in the pub with Tabata. Did I miss something horribly obvious or was it lost under the general "unreliable narrator + short story" vibe?
Thank you for writing it!
oh haha yeah, yamada is actually an assassination & infiltration specialist— or at least, her talents naturally incline her to be very good at it, and there’s only so much of herself she’s capable of hiding when her life is on the line. she’s got an iron-tight amount of control over her chakra, partially because in some ways it still reads to her as foreign so she’s intimately aware of what she puts out to a sensor’s radar. she’s been scouted for anbu before, her lack of clan connections especially make her an appealing candidate for the kinds of missions konoha doesn’t want to admit they do (& especially for danzo’s sub division). she just doesn’t want too (lol) and devoted an uncharacteristic amount of effort to being a halfway competent med-nin, which sort of gets her left alone but objectively just makes her an even more appealing candidate for these kinds of things…
it’s all probably a bit toooooo “implied” but i wrote that story to have fun and work through writers block. so lol.
unfortunately for poor yamada all roads lead to doing jobs she doesn’t want to do. to me and the vague future i envision for her she’ll wind up being jiraiya’s (and minato’s) agent upon being very unwillingly dragged into a political conspiracy— jiraiya doesn’t want to be doing this either but sakumo is his friend and danzou crossed a line to him by trying to take out this specific political enemy. yamada is already involved and good at what she does so she was a bit doomed the moment minato pegged her for being competent.

Tobirama seduction notes
I just took a shift in the stall and I am so sleep depriveed I feel drunk. so let’s write stuff.
Okay so LIKE, in the Seduction of Tobirama fic thing, I actually got this weird strange funny thought in my head like, what if one of Haruki’s sibs was like, weirdly interested in how power dynamics would mess up a relationship, which was a valid concern, since as both a chuunin and Tobi’s secretary, she is doubly under his command.
There’s two things this is going in my head. One, to shift her departments, which she would object to strenuously, because haha, I became a secretary to ogle this hot guy, why u shifting me just because I achieved peak fan girl goals? And Tobirama, blushing to the roots of his hair, is like, speechless. Mito, involved in this as an invested party, is like, please stop talking like that, Tobi is gonna explode.
Kagami, the little shit, is like, she can work under me? Because Kagami became Anbu General at one point, and everyone and their mother wanted to put an AnBu as secretary for additional hokage protection. 
Tobi and Mito take one second to process the idea of Tobi’s girlfriend(?) /wife(?) working under his little shit of a student. On one hand, that would work because Kagami is trustworthy, on the other hand, the idea of Haruki’s very amazing efficiency suddenly applied to AnBu is hair raising. WTF would that look like? They’re all afraid to see it.
Mito thought she knew what a woman in love could do (e.g. Mito herself facing down the fucking nine tails because her husband would probably kill himself on it), but this level of dedication is something else. (Clearly, Mito has never met a simp in her life, but I digress)
Two, would be if like, one of her cooler aunts came to Konoha and introduced the idea of private lives and working lives to Haruki, because clearly this niece needs some work division in her life. 
In public, she’d obey her hokage, her boss, basically. In private, no titles. Simply Tobi and Haru. U can take it a step further and involve sub/dom into this but at this point of the convo, Haruki has checked out and clearly wants to die, this is embarrassing. Tobirama is taking notes but also doing a full body blush, wow he’s so old, why is this lady teaching him things? (Haruki’s aunt spent time in the Daimyo’s court and wow those bored nobles had strange kinks)
Mito wants to laugh, but she is also very deeply invested in this relationship and tells her to please just make notes.
Haruki’s aunt does. In graphic detail. Literally, there are graphs. (OMG, Haruki’s Aunt wrote the ninja worlds first BDSM book, LMAO).
I’m just crying laughing at this because at this point, idk what would be funnier.
Either way, Mito and Kagami, who both adore Tobirama, is just watching this courtship and cheering them on even if they’re also cackling.

One Piece being the verse in which I explore the interwoven dynamics in the Fujihara was not what I expected but seeing the power imbalance and struggle between Kiyomi and Mizuki and Suma is so interesting.
Because Kiyomi and Kiyoko are the eldest of all of the children. Kiyomi will always be the "head" of the family, the one who takes on the public role, the one who is more outspoken and her rule is God.
[ Naruto: Temporary head of the Fujihara, helped to solidify the Fujihara as a distinct member of Kirigakure's upper class, is killed in a fight against Afonya shortly before the end of the Second War
DC: Public head of the Fujihara Family, handles the public business & Gala events, handles the press, was behind the deaths of her parents.
Bleach: Joined the Academy after being placed into a Geisha House & had her reiatsu awakened, joined the Third Division shortly after, remained in the Third after Rose was "killed", after Gin, and then even after the TYBW.
One Piece: Current Captain of the Hebi no Kojaku Pirates with a several hundred million berry bounty, lost her arm to Malekai during Marineford, is notoriously known to be a dangerous swordswoman with a cursed blade, currently about to fight for her life. ]
Kiyoko handles everything in the shadows. She's the one actually in charge, here.
[ Naruto: Becomes the Head of the family after Kiyomi is killed by Afonya.
DC: Runs the family finances & handles all of the work in the shadows to continue their Weapon peddling
Bleach: Does not become a member of the Seireitei; she becomes the Head of the family.
One Piece: Left the life of Piracy at 23 to take over the Throne of Janoshima from Ayame. Is now the current sitting Empress of Janoshima. ]
Mizuki is, and always has been, the Wildcard. She's always been the Black Sheep. Regardless of the verse, her canon event is traumatizing and changes her onto a different path than her sisters.
[ Naruto: Abandons Kiri, becomes a member of the original ROOT Anbu for Konoha as a spy, is killed during the Second War.
DC: Goes off the rails as a teenager, goes down the Wrong Path, eventually rehabilitates but is used as muscle and the one that's sent out to Collect Dues & kill.
One Piece: Slaughtered her parents when she was 18 after they branded their children, went off the rails & left the family, took on the moniker of Deadman's Daughter, gained a devil fruit, joined Buggy's crew as a clown contortionist & an assassin for him, tried to kill Kiyomi during Marineford, failed, tried to kill Suma during the timeskip, failed, WANTS REVENGE. ]
Suma is the smartest. She's the youngest sibling. She's the one who was raised by her aunt for seven years. She was brought up in the propaganda that Daiyu and Daisuke created; this twisted, tilted world view that her siblings were all brought up in. Suma is the Outlier. It's why she will always end up on top, in the end.
[ Naruto: Ends up in the Mizukage's Council as the right hand, survives the longest out of her siblings.
DC: Goes to college to become a lawyer, shadows the legendary Gilda Dent ( Harvey Dent's wife ), becomes a damn good lawyer that continuously keeps her family out of trouble.
Bleach: Joins the Fifth Division as the third seat after Shinji returns, survives the TYBW with little injuries, remains as the third seat for the Fifth.
One Piece: Was raised by Ayame until she was seven as a Princess, was taught weaving by Ayame and court politics before being taken back by Daiyu & Daisuke to live for the next six years in fear, remains after Junpei and Mizuki leave to be a member of the Hebi no Kojaku Pirates for the next five years before Kiyomi attempts to kill her, she then jumps ship & swims to shore, survives on her own by jumping from civilian crew to civilian crew until she winds up at Drum Island with a crew that attempts to kill her, she kills them, steals their ship, manages to get to Alabasta. She ends up failing at pickpocketing Sanji thanks to Zoro noticing, gets dragged along and ends up fighting in a WAR TO SAVE ALABASTA?, joins the Straw Hats afterwards, has Fun, gets McBapped in Sabaody trying to protect Zoro, spends the next 2.5-ish years on Gravedigger Island with her new dad & sister, gets almost killed by Mizuki, rejoins the Straw Hats with a new moniker & bounty?? And has no idea that she's about to be a part of a very big, very not good plot in Janoshima???? ]
And Junpei-
The only boy. The Son. The one that Daisuke tried to mold into another version of himself and ended up creating such a broken image of, instead. Junpei will always. Leave. He will never stay. He will always devote himself elsewhere.
[ Naruto: abandons Kirigakure.
DC: Police Officer, refusing to be a member of the Fujihara Crime Family
Bleach: Went to the Academy at a young age, has been a member of the 6th since the day he graduated, has never gone home.
One Piece: Abandoned Suma instead of taking her & rescuing her when he was 20, joined the Marines, is now a Captain ( bordering on Commodore by the end of the Timeskip ), did not interfere in the execution of his aunt. ]

Alright, so imma just spill the beans on the ANBU Gai plot because i cannot contain how horrified I am at the monster I created. I made this blog to talk about it because I know I have difficulties actually writing... So I WILL talk about it!
(EDIT: I just... caved and made this post because I got so excited about my breakthrough. I dont know whether or not i should delete it or drop the whole thing but, it was exciting)
Literally, it started with wanting more angsty Gai, then ANBU Gai and Kakashi being the one to reach put to Gai and they work things out. So... how... and why... did it turn from Gai joining ANBU for Kakashi to getting involved in getting caught between Hiruzen and Danzo's nonsense which involes DESTABILIZING A WHOLE ASS COUNTRY??
I have mentioned the Land of Woods before and... yeah I was cooking it's destabilization and Gai's role in it because I placed so much importance on giving Gai an external conflict outside of his struggles in ANBU and Kakashi. I just HAD to!
Over the course of weeks I researched Naruto's history, the characters, the wars, the countries, the divisions, the magic system and even bought the light novels to understand everyone and everything better... well, I was very selective about who but that's neither here or there... Bottom line is I did the most in trying to create a scenario that would make sense for ANBU Gai that would affect and challenge him. Knowing that a lot of ANBU are either in the village spying on people, protecting the Hokage or infiltrating other countries for assassinations I was like, "That's an idea! Maybe he'll patrol around the village borders with his team and go capture/assassinate targets when not in the village!" It was at this point I practically forgot about Kakashi and Gai's inner struggles to focus on what the fuck kind of missions he would do and what conflict would he be involved in.
Losts of research later I realize that I have a practically blank slate for Gai to play in that he has ties to... The Land of Woods. The victims of the infamous scene where Gai sees the darkness in Kakashi that he lacked himself. It was perfect. It had questions that needed to be answered, like what is it's role in Naruto? Why were they beefing with the Land of Fire/Konoha? What happened to them and why? The answers are: Not much, no idea, and it's essentially lawless land now. There is no leadership and apparently it was a haven for criminals (possibly including Obito and Sasuke at some point). Something happened to it between the period of Kakashi and Itachi slaughtering the Prañja Group (the victims), and Shippuden times and that blank space was mine to color in.
What I did was come up with a reason why it collapsed into the state it did by the time of Shippuden and how Gai was involved. It took a week or so of trying to figure out how destabilizing another country even works (doesnt mean i researched hard. I looked up the methods and imagined from there), but I had come up with Gai and his team assassinating people. But why? And would he stand for it? I wasnt trying to break Gai, just... test how bendy he'll let his morals get in ANBU--
(I posted this early because my phone fell on my face and posted it... )
I wasnt trying to break Gai and I know that as loyal as he is to Konoha and moreso to the people he loves, he wouldn't do something so... devastating. So then I got ROOT involved and now Gai's team is stumbling upon ROOT doing the dastardly deeds of dismantling a dying government. It took until last night for the how to solidify.
... Imma just post pictures of this next part. It came in the middle of me trying to go back and flesh out the Kakagai so I didnt lose it again, but the Land of Woods conflict still got me by the throat.

If you read this far... thank you. If you hate this? Completely understandable. I might delete this post but i had to get this out. I hope that it was at least interesting

@cat-of-the-anbu ~ continued from [here]
ㅤA fair enough response, Itachi must say. He and Tenzo had ever had a lot in common, when they were younger - thirst for knowledge and books, loyalty to the village, will to make this world a better place by mean of their effort and dedication. And for what, all of that? What reward had they won, other than hideous scars on their body and even more terrible ones on their psyche? It felt almost poetic, that they should meet again like this. By the other side of the looking glass.
«More things even than you imagine.»
ㅤHad Tenzo even been at the village still, when the massacre happened? Memories of those days were quite hazy in Itachi's mind, in between severe trauma and severe torture. Even if not, however, surely his old friend would have heard the news about it eventually; it was one of those events known in the shinobi world by everybody and their mother. A piece of legend, truly, that Itachi meant to turn the tables on as soon as the perfect moment arrived.
And, speaking of which-
«I've been collecting allies and resources, mostly.»
ㅤNo better time than the present, and no better policy than honesty. With the reflection of the embers glowing along the deep crimson of his remaining eye, Itachi shifted his position; mostly snuggled inside his dark coat with the red clouds, and now comfortably rested against the thick trunk of that centenary tree. His gaze then fell on the older man's arm, not meaning to stare but very curious about the nature of that marred flesh. Danzo's doing as well, could it be? The whole ROOT division was a can of worms in and of its own.
«So that, one day, I can return and take Konoha under my own rule.»

Konoha Organisations
The Konoha shinobi society is organised into several units placed under the control of the Hokage. Each unit has Jōnin or Special (Tokubetsu) Jōnin in charge of it, and they report to the Hokage and his advisers.
The Hokage sits at the top of the society, discussing issues with their Advisors. The two official advisers of Hiruzen Sarutobi are Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu, living through the previous wars together.
The Jōnin Commander supports the Hokage, aiding in directing the villages units and representing the regular forces.
Some groups and units known only the the Hokage and higher ranking individuals. ROOT was one of these secretive organisations, a sub-division of the ANBU initially shut down by the Sandaime, illegally operated until it was finally disbanded after Danzo Shimura’s death during the Godaime reign.
Tumblr media
Operations Unit:
In other words, regular shinobi forces which are the backbone of the system. Teams or specific individuals handle the majority of the missions that the village receives, and are also tasked with other duties such as education, administration, etc. Most ninja are in this division, from genin, chūnin, special jōnin and jōnin.
Medical Corps:
The medical teams and medical-nin within this sector support the general shinobi forces through healing the sick and injured whether in village (coordinating with ordinary doctors) or on the battle field. They develop new techniques, study medicines, research diseases and further their anatomy understanding to advance their healing capabilities. They are divided into several groups by speciality, such as emergency staff or technical research. Some medical-nin are skilled enough to join regular forces and are called field medical-nin.
ANBU:
This division is under direct control of the Hokage, and only accept order from them. They are covert operatives who specialise in spying, assassination, and other difficult or risky missions. The Hokage selects them personally, regardless of age or gender, and they are meant to be the most elite of the forces. The individual units are composed according to the goal and difficulty of their missions.
Konoha Intelligence Division:
This organisation within the village is composed of many sub-divisions, such as the Konoha Torture and Interrogation Force which is a special division headed by Ibiki Morino. Prior to the fourth shinobi war, they worked alongside the Analysis Team which was headed by Inoichi Yamanaka. Prisoners or the dead are kept here here to extract information from them for the benefit of Konoha.
- Chūbu appears to be a modern ranking in Konoha given to Sai, and implies it may be a type of support unit.
- The Twenty Platoons (Nijū Shōtai) were created by the Godaime, Tsunade Senju, to search for the Akatsuki. It consisted of twenty teams of four individuals.
—————————————-
Outside of Konoha, other lands follow their own customs and culture which creates a different type of organisation within the individual villages.
*Shinobi Ruler/Head Shinobi - A rank found within Kumo above jonin, they’re given the authority to represent their village’s interests.
*Kinkaku Force was an elite team of twenty shinobi from Kumo, which is now disbanded.
*Hunter Squads - A special unit of Kiri’s own Hunter-nin, created solely to hunt down and dispose of rogue shinobi/missing-nin, they possess medical and assassination training to aid their goals.
*Twelve Guardian Ninja are a group of twelve elite shinobi invited by the Land of Fire’s Daimyo to become his body guards.
*Puppet Brigade was a division in Suna of skilled puppeteers during the Second Shinobi War.
*Explosion Corps was an organisation within Iwa composed of individuals holding the explosion release kekkei genkai.
*Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist is an organisation of seven skilled individuals who wielded the legendary blades of Kiri.
(Fourth Shinobi War Divisions to be covered at a later date)

just another time travel fix-it
Just another generic “Sasuke travels back in time” fic
“Sasuke, eh?  Like my father?”
“No.”
“...”
“Sasuke is a common name.”
Naruto gets to the brink of death and Sasuke activates his Rinnegan/some form of his rinnegan and the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan while holding Naruto.  They land in a forest close to a village.  Naruto bleeds out in Sasuke’s arms and Sasuke takes him to the village and pleads with the healer to help him.  Nothing can be done.  Naruto is buried in an unmarked grave (Sasuke will always be able to find it again) in the outskirts of the village.  Sasuke discovers that he’s traveled back in time to when he was originally five.  Sasuke meets five-year-old Naruto and forms a bond with him.  Sasuke possesses Danzo with his snake summons, all his summons retain their memory because they’re connected to him.  Or he uses a genjutsu.  It’s imperative that no one realizes what he’s doing, as Sasuke doubts he is good enough to get away if they do.  Also, security will go up and another leader will be elected for ROOT.  Sasuke instills himself as Danzo’s successor and then arranges to have Danzo done away with later.  Before this happens, he discovers that Danzo was going to spread rumors about the Uchiha, which would cause them to attempt a coup.  This means that after Danzo is dead, the Uchiha Massacre would never happen, nor would the coup that never was.  Sasuke also attempts to foster goodwill towards the Uchiha.  As soon as Sasuke is instilled as Danzo’s successor, he has Danzo introduce him to the Third Hokage, so it won’t be suspicious when he seizes control of ROOT.  Sasuke ‘doesn't want to worry the citizens’ so the official cause of Danzo’s death is something natural, like a brain aneurysm or a heart attack.  He tells the Third Hokage the “truth” that Danzo was assassinated.  Now all Sasuke has to do is prevent the end of the world, stop the Akatsuki, get Naruto properly cared for, deal with ROOT, save Gaara, keep Hinata from getting kidnapped, and find Team Taka.  Easy, right?  Sasuke gets a seal for Gaara from Jiraiya, probably telling him something about how Konohagakure’s economy would destabilize a little if devastation happened to Sunagakure.  He gives the seal to a ROOT agent in Sunagakure who pretends it was found in some old trunk or something and makes sure it finds its way to the Kazekage.  Sasuke stops Hinata from getting kidnapped, maybe an ANBU patrol?  The Third Hokage makes it certain that if it happened again, it would not be tolerated.  He then realizes that he’s forgotten to deal with the caged bird seals, prompting him to seek out Jiraiya once more.  The two do research for an alternative, drawing inspiration from ROOT agent’s silencing seals, and meet with Hiashi and Hizashi.  Hiashi and Hizashi deal with the elders and work with Jiraiya.  Sasuke prevents the death of Karin’s mother and basically puts them under witness protection.  He seeks out Juugo and takes him back as a bodyguard or something to keep him close.  He somehow manages to send relief aid to wherever Suigetsu comes from.  Sasuke tries to get rid of anti-Uchiha laws then eventually goes to the Third Hokage to disband ROOT and maybe make it into a ghost division or the ANBU.  The Third Hokage suspiciously asks why the ROOT leader would want to disband ROOT and be pro-Uchiha, given Danzo’s opinions.  Sasuke tells the Third Hokage that he started to question Danzo’s ideals after his death.  After finding out that he was a dojutsu thief.  Sasuke explains to a stunned Third Hokage about finding Danzo’s body, about the Sharingan he had implanted in his body.  Sasuke tells the Third Hokage that this knocked Danzo off the pedestal to him, as Sasuke was a blood Uchiha with a Sharingan, and that made Danzo’s action appalling to his mind.  The Third Hokage has a bit of a breakdown, talking about the death of his successor, his student Tsunadae leaving the village, Orochimaru’s actions, Danzo’s death, and his subsequent learning of Danzo’s sins.  The Third Hokage tells Sasuke about how he didn’t want to become Hokage again after the Fourth Hokage’s death but there was no one willing and able to do it.  Sasuke suggested he quit.  Find a successor, train them, then retire and adopt Naruto.  The Third Hokage wearily accepts.  After a couple of months where Sasuke works on reintegrating child ROOT members into society, the Third Hokage offers to make him a candidate for Hokage.  Sasuke says that he’s unfit, and points out that he’s lost faith in the village due to their actions.  The Third Hokage says that they need somebody who sees the corruption and will fight it.  That as Hokage Sasuke can protect the village, and all the people in it (can protect Naruto).  Sasuke accepts, as it would put him in the perfect place to accomplish his last two goals: prevent the end of the world and stop the Akatsuki.
yes i killed naruto off, no i don’t regret it <3
i have like a chapter of this if u want it.

About the muse:
Background:
Born into the Shimura Clan to his shinobi father, Danzō joined the newly established Academy and was amongst the first few hundred of students to graduate. Ever since his genin days he has been friend with Hiruzen, whom he considers his rival in everything.
During the First Shinobi War, Danzō is part of the Escort Unit alongside Kagami Uchiha, Torifu Akimichi and Team Tobirama.
On one of their missions, during which is said that a member of their team has to sacrifice themselves as a decoy in order for the rest of them to escape, Danzō struggles to bring himself to volunteer and calls himself weak as Hiruzen volunteers himself for the role. After Hiruzen is appointed as Third Hokage, Danzō swears to himself that he'll one day attain the title as well and decides to take up the village's more clandestine operations, something that Hiruzen knew about and allowed Danzō to do.
He creates an ANBU branch named ROOT, with the organisation under Danzō's direct command and hand-picked young shinobi with noticeable potential.
During the Third Shinobi World War, Danzō agrees to provide aid to Hanzō of Amegakure in order to receive help in claiming the title of Hokage, manipulating Hanzō into joining forces with him against the Akatsuki by bringing him corpses of Ame shinobi and claiming they were killed by Akatsuki, while in truth they were ROOT members disguised.
During the Kyuubi's attack on Konoha, Danzō insists that the Uchiha clan is not allowed to join in the defence of the village, fearing that someone like Madara Uchiha would take advantage of the situation and use the Nine-Tails against Konoha, and convinces Hiruzen to have the Uchiha exclusively protect the citizens. Then, after the attack is stopped, he's one of the elders to suspect the Uchiha clan was behind the attack and begins a spying operation on them, relocating the Uchiha to the outskirts of the village. He later approaches a grieving young Kakashi and convinces him to join Danzō's ROOT division and spy on Hiruzen for him.
Over the years, Danzō recruits many new members of ROOT, including clan kids like Aburame Torune of the Aburame clan, Yamanaka Fū of the Yamana clan and Uchiha Itachi of the Uchiha clan.
At some point Danzō, fearing that his stolen Sharingan will go blind with overuse, sends Kinoe on a mission to steal Kakashi's Sharingan as a replacement, but the boy returns after deciding to abandon his mission, much to Danzō's fury. Before Danzō can take action against Kinoe, Kakashi arrives to save him and retreat together.
When word reaches him about a coup d'état planned by the Uchiha clan, Danzō takes advantage of Itachi's pacifist tendencies to convince him into providing him and the other elders information of the clan's actions. When later on Shisui Uchiha presents his plan of ceasing the Uchiha's coup by using Kotoamatsukami on his own clansmen to the Council, Hiruzen agrees. Danzō, however, is determined to protect the village in his own way and steals the Shisui's right eye, pushing him into suicide.
Danzō then secretly meets with Itachi and manipulates him into choosing to slaughter his own clan by presenting him with the option of either killing them and sparing his younger brother or letting them go through with the coup and having them all killed by the village as a result.
Hiruzen, not believing Danzō's story about Itachi having done the massacre out of his own will, voices his disgust at Danzō's actions before removing him from the Council and ordering for his ROOT division to be disbanded. However, despite that order, Danzō continues to keep ROOT secretly active over the years.
Personality:
When he was younger, Danzō was a hot-headed and eager ninja with a strong desire to prove himself. He often displayed jealousy towards Hiruzen, believing he was always one step ahead of him and feeling inferior to him.
As an adult, Danzō is a calm, cold and collected individual who does not allow his emotions to surface. Due to being raised in times of war, Danzō's beliefs differ from those of the Hokage as he felt that the interests of the village should be placed above all else, even ethics and morals.
According to his former teammate Utatane Koharu, Danzō is very ambitious and all he ever did was for the sake of the village.
Danzō prefers to directly eliminate threats through assassination and execution rather than diplomacy and negotiation. However, he secretly worked closely with the international criminal Orochimaru in illegal experiments in order to increase his physical capabilities.
Danzō also possesses a fanatical and arbitrary adherence to the ideals of a shinobi, believing they must sacrifice absolutely everything for the village, all the while hypocritically fearing his own death and hiding this fear behind the belief that his survival was necessary for the sake of the shinobi world itself.
Despite his reputation as a militarist, Danzō wishes for peace in the ninja world, one he wants to achieve by uniting all shinobi forces under his control. Danzō's pursuit of peace follows the idea that the end justifies the means and, as such, he has no remorse taking any immoral actions as long as he believes that it would benefit Konoha.
Danzō also believes Konoha is strongest and most stable when the village has a target to focus its anger and hatred on. To this end, he was key in stigmatizing the Uchiha clan and was the one to secretly leak out the knowledge that Naruto Uzumaki was the container of the Nine-Tailed Fox, ensuring the villagers would loathe him as a result.
Treacherous by nature, Danzō will not hesitate into eliminate his allies if they ever prove themselves too capable for his comfort. However, despite his his self-righteous and amoral methods, Danzō does have a sense of nobility and dignity, reprimanding Sasuke for his hatred and violence against Konoha, saying that it had wasted both the sacrifice of the Uchiha clan and Itachi's own personal sacrifices.
Willing to do anything to further his physical and political powers, Danzō allows Orochimaru to experiment on him with Hashirama's cells in order to gain the power to control a tailed beast and extend his use of Izanagi.
In his later years, Danzō has become somewhat delusional and extremely arrogant, believing himself to be unbeatable and that only he would be able to change the entire Shinobi World on his own.
Abilities:
As the leader of the Root and the Sixth Hokage Candidate, Danzō is an exceptionally powerful shinobi and his skills are held in high regard by the elders Homura and Koharu as they considere him one of Konoha's strongest ninja.
Danzō is adept in both using and dispelling high-level genjutsu. He also has some skill in taijutsu and a decent amount of physical strength despite his old age. Danzō is also quite fast and agile. Additionally, Danzō is also skilled in the use of kenjutsu.
Danzō is well-versed in the use of fūinjutsu and cursed seals. In fact, he placed binding seals on the tongues of every ROOT member to prevent his secrets from being exposed. He can also implement binding seals in battle, which is shown when he places a seal on Sasuke, temporarily paralysing him. Lastly, upon his death, Danzō reveals his most powerful sealing technique, the Reverse Four Symbols Sealing, a technique that causes four seal symbols on Danzō's skin to exit from his body and form a large sphere around him, forcing everything inside it to be drawn in and imprisoned within his corpse.
Danzō has access to a very unique summoning, a giant tapir-like creature known as a Baku, described as the "Nightmare-Eater". A creature of massive size, it has the ability to suck in objects and targets within the area in front of it. The Baku's suction can also be used to increase the power of Danzō's wind techniques, despite the suction leaving the creature vulnerable to fire techniques.
Danzō can utilise multiple nature transformations which include Wind, Earth, Water and Fire Release, as well as both Yin and Yang Release. He's particularly proficient in Wind Release, using powerful vacuum-based attacks that can either slash like blades or pierce like bullets. If needed, he can use enhanced or localised variations, some of which are strong enough to destroy an extremely durable wooden dome or damage a humanoid Susanoo's defences. He can also use his wind chakra to manoeuvre himself in mid-air, as well as infuse wind into his weapons to increase their offensive power.
Possessing Hashirama's cells in his right arm, Danzō has the ability to use Wood Release, albeit with a significant toll on his chakra. This, combined with the fact that his overall skill with the technique is quite rudimentary, forces him to only use it when necessary.
Danzō's right arm originally belonged to Uchiha Shin and was implanted with ten Sharingan and lastly enhanced with Hashirama Senju's DNA. He normally keeps the arm hidden under bandages and a gauntlet-like seal, presumably to conserve chakra and keep the eyes and DNA in check.
Due to integration of Hashirama's cells, Danzō has gained the ability to heal nearly any wound without the use of hand seals. According to Tobi, Danzō's possession of both Uchiha and Senju DNA most likely meant that he was after Naruto, since he possessed the potential capability to control Kurama.
Danzō's right eye was that of Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan and was very skilled at using it, able to detect multiple assassins hidden among his surroundings and subdue individuals with genjutsu. Danzō can activate Izanagi, a technique forbidden even amongst the Uchiha clan. However, even with Danzō's physical energy augmented by Hashirama's cells, it takes a substantial amount of chakra to sustain the technique.
Having his eye constantly hidden, Danzō has never been seen activating Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan. Despite this, he has made use of Kotoamatsukami an unknown amount of times. Augmented by Hashirama's cells, Danzō reveals that he can use the technique once every several hours, as opposed to once every decade.
Upon his death, Danzō destroys the eye in fear that it could one day be used against Konoha.

Note
Now I wonder what Hyuuga Retsu's interaction with the others be like especially during the wars. Would it be like when she was the first kenpachi of 11th Division? What would her most likely response with the mental health of all shinobi including Anbu and Root? The difficult patients? The sannin? I'm curious how Kabuto and Orochimaru would react to her.
Nah lol she made a vow never to go back to those days and it’ll take more than some baby ninjas to make her break it. As for mental health…you know I absolutely love Unohana but I gotta admit, dealing with peoples’ mental health has never been her strong point. She can bring someone back from the brink of death in seconds but PTSD? The only thing she knows about PTSD is how to cause it.
Shinobi suck at being patients as much as shinigami do; that being said, much like shinigami, no shinobi is dumb enough to give her trouble as a patient.
Re: her relationship with the Sannin—
Jiraiya: is probably the only woman he’s too terrified to hit on
Orochimaru: pre-defection, probably regarded each other with professional courtesy
Tsunade: her attitude towards Retsu can be summed up by “I’m not a lesbian, but—”
