I'm too lazy to bother locking chapters anymore.
After the website's major review period, nearly every one of my Naruto stories got locked. I checked, and they all had the same reason. Anyone who's watched Naruto knows there's a jutsu called Shadow Clone. The reviewers probably don't watch anime, or else they're bots that automatically lock chapters whenever they see a supposedly forbidden word.
But at the root of it all is the stubborn legacy of an outdated system.
Mr. Sun Yat-sen's will: "The revolution has not yet succeeded. Comrades must continue to strive."
It's not enough to preach and brainwash people. What matters is what you actually do and what you're capable of doing.
I'll still spend money to read stories here, because there are many excellent authors across the strait who work within the system and still write wonderful stories. (Of course, it might also be that I'm used to traditional characters and write in traditional characters, while people across the strait are used to simplified characters and write in simplified characters. Once you're accustomed to something, you instinctively work around the rules.) But I'm sorry, I'm simply too lazy to keep accommodating brainless people stuck in the past, or to keep finding ways to work around a foolish system that tries to brainwash people after they've already become enlightened. I won't keep posting stories here. I write for the love of it, because sharing and interacting with readers is fun, and simply writing stories makes me happy. Basically, I write my own comfort food. Having to navigate the rules imposed by this terrible system in the author dashboard, until I can't help cursing the brainless fools who came up with them and wishing a meteor would fall on them, makes me miserable. That would defeat the whole purpose.
People are already good at limiting themselves. There's really no need to impose even more restrictions, unless there's some particular reason. But if you don't truly believe in or agree with something yourself, and only think you have to agree because you've been taught to, then those restrictions are unnecessary.
I've been working on the continuation, but posting it is exhausting. The stories I've already posted here will keep the same titles and pen name. If you can find your way around the internet, you can look for them.
Super unserious blurb:
The kid, wearing a haughty, icy face, began to speak: "O power of darkness hidden within ○○, show me your true power. I, ○○, who have made a pact of love with you, command you: release the seal!"
Tobirama: "..."
Hashirama: "Hahahahaha!"
Serious blurb:
That night, the gigantic Nine-Tails took countless lives. The heroes of the past returned to the world of the living, while children shouldered the hopes of their clans and villages.
That day, magical incantations rang across the land. Like the love and hope overflowing in the children's hearts, they brought all things back to life.
Very serious blurb: In short, it's the story of a girl trying to spread magic in Naruto.
The real blurb: The author's imagination has run wild again, and she's going after Madara.
*****Reader's Guide*****
1. There are all kinds of land mines here, so bring your own metal detector and protective shield.
2. The characters may be OOC. Please don't tell me that this isn't the original character from the source material. Their fates have changed, so of course their personalities and everything else will differ from the original. I'll do my best to write them according to the plot, but they'll inevitably diverge from the source.
3. The Uchiha clan does not get wiped out here! The Uchiha clan does not get wiped out here! The Uchiha clan does not get wiped out here! Naruto has a family here! Naruto has a family here! Naruto has a family here!
4. Madara is a bit of a jerk when it comes to relationships. The heroine is reincarnated after death. She lived to fourteen in her previous life, and before this story begins, she mostly spent her time being a well-behaved, naive girl and growing up. Since she died at fourteen and was then doted on by her parents and elders until she was eight in her new life, her mental age is still stuck in its awkward teenage phase. She might be a little melodramatic sometimes.
5. If I have chapters ready, updates will be scheduled (every other day or every three days). If not, updates will be irregular. Bonus chapters depend on my mood, like when I see Madara on the road and get too excited (Hey!).

"One Piece" Reform
Madara was quite cute when he was a kid, and his evil face wasn't scary either.
Thinking of the face on Madara's chest in the original novel, it's not surprising at all that he is a crazy person...
Hashirama: I didn't expect you to be such a Uchiha Madara (looking at the lolicon) Madara: ... Maybe Yuki was as old as me in her previous life Hashirama: Hey, right? (Ask directly and casually) Yuki-chan, how old were you in your last life? Yuki:!!! Yuki: As expected, I can't hide it from you (smiling sheepishly) I was 14 years old in my last life. Hashirama: (looking at the lolicon) Tobirama: (looking at the lolicon) Quan Na: It doesn't matter, brother, even if you are a lolicon, I will still love you. Madara:…
I think it should be the broken moral integrity of our ancestors.
It seems that the original Madara only has one sister, right? Is Senna a boy now? How did Izuna change from a girl to a boy?
The author is my favorite person ~ cute
Author bacteria, where are you?
The little Uchihas are so cute! Nana is cute too! ... And, what is the new pit?!!
Hahahahahahaha The first time I saw Uchiha who was stuck by Uchiha Isn't it true that Ikki was brought back from Senju? [No
... Is nothing going to happen to Izuna?
