The Cycle of Hatred: A Naruto Insert
[A Naruto Self-Insert as Naruto Uzumaki]
They say you should dig two graves if you want to go looking for revenge... so, it's a good thing I've already died once because the delusional one-eyed fuck that railroaded my life is going six feet under, one way or another.
You see, this is what happens when an ordinary guy is reborn as a not-so-ordinary child and is forced to shoulder the world’s burden for his survival.
Luckily for me, saving the world and revenge are just two sides of the same fucked up coin.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- Meaningful growth that feels realistic, fleshed out, and above all: contributes to the narrative. There'll be no gaining strength just for the cool factor even if the strength Naruto gains can be cool.
- A slow-paced story—it's just a quirk of my writing. I enjoy fleshing out characters, exploring their minds, and attaching them to readers, so that when it comes to the conflict and consequences, I can deliver the maximum emotional effect.
But I understand it can be frustrating sometimes. I've been told my story is one better binge-read in the earlier stages.
- Slight tweaking of the power system & world. Full disclosure: some of my changes to the world are inspired by or are either directly taken from "Naruto: The Outsider's Resolve" by FictionOnlyReader. The reason is that it's something that's come up in our discussions regarding worldbuilding in the first place.
Not ALL changes, but a fair few. I'll try and keep the spirit of canon in mind as well.
We are friends, I'm not a thief... at least, not a mean-spirited one anyway.
- I'm ignoring things from Boruto because I want to separate this story as much as possible from the world-eating, planet-hopping, fuckwits that are the Otsutsuki.

DISCLAIMER:
Barring my OCs (Original Characters), I do not own any of the characters in this story nor do I own the rights to the ‘Naruto’ franchise. I am but a lowly fan, expressing his love for the stories that he grew up with.
No, I'm not so egoistic as to believe that my story is perfect across the board, but I need reviews, goddamnit! 😭 I've had to delete and reupload this fic because Webnovel's algorithm buggered me without mercy. After talking things through with a friend of mine, I figured out that I need to update it as frequently as possible in the next two weeks to bump up engagement. It's almost been a week now and while we've definitely grown, I'm worried I'll get buried under the sea of ever-growing stories. On that end, I'd to implore you guys to help out, yeah? Shoot a review down here, recommend this story to your friends, and perhaps spare a power stone or two. Thank you very much! ^^

i really dont know how I feel about this. It’s not bad but it’s not good either its like mid and a little bit more than mid at the same time he took a route where Naruto isn’t extremely talented but he’s not untalented at the same time. It’s really weird and like I feel like this is very slow but dude it’s like very traumatized and shit and it’s not amazing because like it’s not I don’t know all right I guess i really don’t know how I feel about this. It’s super fucking weird. I’ve never felt this way about something. I’ve read.
Well, liked story a lot Pace is slow, but it refines character of MC even more and its something fresh unlike other stories with bullshit like 6 year becoming kage. So liked that a lot. Keep it up!
"The thing I hate the most in Naruto fanfics is when they don't put Naruto in Team 7. That alone completely changes the story and its course. And honestly, the last thing I care about are characters like Choji, Hinata, or Shikamaru."
The book is great) although not dark enough for me, but I'm only on chapter 69. I am kinda like this naruto and waiting for him to run out of patience ( if he really endures all this, he will become a Buddha 999 lvl)
If he don't throw a tailed beast bomb at the leaf village, am gonna take the 5 starts back. pulverize the accursed leaf village
La historia está buena cada personaje tiene desarrollo pero hay algunos capitulos un poco innecesarios en mí opinión, además hay cosas que no me gustaron, como por ejemplo,que no sepa hacer clones de sombra, y lo dejo porque me agobio lo lento que era el ritmo de la historia pero dejando eso de lado la historia está buena
Is is esaly one of the best realistic Naruto fanfics out there, truly realistic growth and one of the most in depth character Development, and world building I have ever read, witch I do a lot👍 And super fighting sence. thank you for this master work.❤️
World background is excellent because characters have real problems. They feel even more real than in the original story. I can't say anything about writing quality (I'm not native English speaker), but I think that it is good. I didn't see grammar mistakes that would be too striking. Characters are explored in the way that you can feel their situation. They get stronger in a way possible for Naruto world, and it is not too fast nor too slow. I don't like that, Mc right now doesn't have a multi shadow clone jutsu. Pece of story development is good. (Of course, I would like to have more chapters to read, but I have time. I can wait.) Autor has nice idea about the personalities of characters and how to make them more interesting. Thank you, Mr. autor, for your work, and please continue it.
The writing quality really stands out—no distracting typos or confusing sentences, just a smooth, enjoyable read. It's enough for me to highly recommend just based on that!

My goodness, what an exquisite piece of literature I've found. I read this entire book in the time between one chapter's upload and the next, but that only speaks of the quality of writing and the addictiveness of the story itself. There were numerous times I'd forgotten this was a fanfiction! I'd honestly go as far as to say this story rivals the Enchanting Melodies(HP) and Wind Calamity(Naruto) fanfictions in both quality of the writing and development of the characters. I understand that all good things take time, so the upload schedule is actually quite good all things considered. Every one of these chapers deserves it's own time for planning and development. I'm constantly on the edge of my seat for every word and every plot twist. That's another thing this author does better than nearly every other author I've seen. Plot twists. And not the Disney kind either. It's much more akin to those Telenovelas you watch behind your mother's back so she doesn't embarrass you in front of her friends. You, Mr. Etenal_Yujin , are a good author. And I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Es muy extraño ver al autor tratar de justificar lo mal que la paso Naruto en la infancia, se concentra tanto en eso que la historia se estanca y la verdad no logra enganchar a los lectores, la verdad no creo que esta reseña se mantenga. Meh
es una excelente historia, espero leer más a menudo la misma.
