So, while travelling these past two days, I was bored out of my mind, so I took a look at the recent chapters of the arc(pre-written one) I have to say I was quite disappointed in the last 10 or so chapters. So, I delved deeper into the reason for such fall off in quality. After some pondering, I realized that I have hit a writer's block without even realizing. In the past one year, i have written plenty of new things in this novel. I have a basic plotline and an ending planned for this novel, but the content in between is proving to be a challenging task since I want to write something new and different with each arc.

So, after hitting the 300 chapter goal, I am planning to put this series on a hiatus of two months and re-pick it in November. So, you folks might wonder then what I am going to write next. ​​

First is my Fairy-Tail fanfic.

I will write this series slowly and carefully since it's going to be more of an Original creation. So, I will write three weekly chapters and once I pick up my pace, the weekly chapters will increase to five. (I don't want to overburden myself and rush chapters for the sake of publishing a chapter every day.)

But that's not all, It's the reason behind this post. I have an in-depth knowledge of Naruto-verse thanks to this fan-fiction. So, I don't want this to go to waste. Hence, I am planning to write another Naruto fan-fic which will differ greatly from the current one and will be much smaller. For now, I have two ideas in mind which are as below. I will do a quick poll among you folks to pick one of your choice..

Before the ideas, I want to make a few things clear.

1) No, I won't drop the current fan-fic. Not happening, I have promised myself to complete the fan-fic.

2) The new Naruto fan-fic would be much smaller.

Now, for the actual fanfics plots.

1. Reborn In Naruto as a weapon Shop Owner

About this book:- The MC will be a civilian with no chakra system. He will inherit his father's shop after his father's death. He will be a reincarnated individual with memories of Naruto intact. Now, to make things interesting, he will get a weapon system when he inherits the shop.

So, the MC will have access to modern weapons as well as fictional weapons from different universes. To name a few, from a glock to an Rpg. From an iron-man suit to a satellite railgun and even legendary swords like Excalibur. Also, I will include weapons from different games and anime like: Destiny 2, Valorant, Apex legends, Fate series and other different anime.

Now, it may sound a bit too Op and it is. But to balance out things, most of the powerful weapons will be a onetime water-downed use only. Since it's a system novel, there will be system missions too, but the MC won't be a System slave as I dislike such genre.

Now about the timeline, he will be the same age as Kakashi and the group. He will run his weapon shop and will sell general shinobi ware like kunais, shurikens, swords, katana, tanto, and other cold weapons. The system weapons are only reserved for him unless the situation demands it.

2. Naruto: Shinobi of the Root

About this book:- The MC was an assassin in his past life with no prior knowledge of Naruto. He will be a civilian and grow up in the same orphanage as Minato. He doesn't have any sort of cheat or system of any sort except for his martial skill and memories from his previous life. The MC will have average chakra reserves (same as Kakashi). He won't even have the advantage of any sort of future knowledge or other legacy. This story will be a little dark with only few light humour spots.

As indicated by the title, Danzo will mentor our MC and thus MC will become a part of the ROOT. The MC will be calm, mature, calculative, and often manipulative. He will do anything in his capacity to survive in the cruel world of Naruto, be it back stabbing, murdering his teammates or even abandon the mission and the village if necessary.

Watch him on his journey as he makes a name for himself and make the entire shinobi world tremble in fear by mere mention of his name.
