The Not-So-Passionate Naruto Story

Shunned by the villagers, a lonely soul plants the seeds of darkness. Rescued and given hope, only to fall back into the abyss, the seeds begin to sprout.

The power of the bloodline buried deep inside will eventually awaken... but...

A gift from a dear friend might also become a deadly weapon...

Putting on a mask given to him by someone else, he is reborn as Menma...

"You're going to stop me?"

Leaning toward an all-Naruto pairing.

Please don't hate on it if it's not your thing.

The timeline may differ from the original, and some parts might feel awkward. I mainly don't want to write a long story because I'm lazy and under a lot of academic pressure. As long as you can follow what's going on, that's fine.

Feel free to leave suggestions. Tag me if you spot any problems, and I'll fix them when I see them. I'll read all your suggestions, and I may make occasional edits to earlier chapters.

Written purely out of love. Read at your own risk.

Tag me if there's news, or I really might not see it.
