The protagonist reincarnates into the Shinobi world with no cheats. The only advantage he has is his mixed heritage of the Senju and Uzumaki clan, paired with Naruto knowledge till Naruto Shippuden episode 200.
Since he is born into the era of peace, he plans to live a peaceful life and leave the role of savior to others. But with the rapid decline of the Senju clan, the clan elders force him to train as the future clan head. This also marks the start of a legend, but also a miserable man.
The hopes of one of the strongest clan rests on his shoulders, and the responsibility comes with its fair share of burdens. He trains hard to overcome these challenges and forms bonds with others of his generation to grow strong.
However, the halo of a savior is often plagued by misfortune and sorrow. The price of power always comes with blood. A sinister will lurks within the shadows, manipulating the entire world into turning his enemy. Former friends become foes and foes, allies. The once cheerful, kind man turns into a brutal, cold-hearted shinobi.
“I am no hero who will sacrifice himself and his family for other’s sake; I am the villain who will burn the entire world for the sake of his family.”

Disclaimer:- This story will be slow pace with a bit of slice of life and action-adventure. There will be tons of world building and exploration; beyond the Five nations and the shinobi continent. That means we won’t seriously follow the main plot in Konoha but will explore MC’s adventure in various other nations and continents.
If you don’t like the idea of a slow burn with little progress towards the canon Naruto, then this story is not for you. I am writing this story to explore the hidden side of the Naruto world, presented through several Naruto filler episodes, movies, and games. Naruto world as a whole had lot of potential but the story never went beyond the Five Nations.
This story is here to focus on those other nations and their unique culture, power system and other hidden aspects. The story will still start its progress in Konoha, but as the MC grows as a shinobi, he will walk out (or forced to walk out) of the Shinobi world to explore a wide world outside.
In this story, the shinobi world is just one continent out of the five other major continents.
So, get ready for a long, action-adventure packed story.

Schedule: 4 chaps/week
Length of the chapter: 2700-3300 words/chap.
Expected Run: So far, I have planned enough content for 250 chapters. But let’s see what the future shall hold.

Naruto: Shinobi of Blood and Bonds

I will be releasing this story soon. This story, as its name suggests, is based in the Naruto world or the Shinobi world. However, there are several changes to the plot. I will follow a few of Naruto's earlier retcon.

1) Rinnegan is a unique Dojutsu and is among the three most powerful Dojutsu after the Byakugan and Sharingan. So, this means in the new story Rinnegan won't be an evolution of Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. There are a few major things that I based this off on.

(i) Sharingan slowly evolves from One-tomoe to Three tomoe and then to Mangekyo Sharingan. During all these evolutions, it retains all of its abilities. But as soon as it evolves to Rinnegan, it loses them all and gains completely new abilities.

(ii) When introduced, it was a unique Dojutsu to the leader of the Akatsuki, pain. And he had had this Dojutsu since his childhood. This makes me think that it was supposed to be Pain's exclusive Dojutsu. Now Pain is an Uzumaki clan member.

(iii) Uzumaki clan has entirely different abilities from the Senju, but somehow they are a branch of the Senju clan. What things changes in the story:- So, with the above mentioned change.

(i) Rinnegan will be an Uzumaki clan, Dojutsu. An extremely rare Dojutsu of the clan.

(ii) Uzumaki won't be a branch family of the Senju clan but still the descendant of the Sage of Six Paths, similar to how Kaguya clan doesn't seem to have any ties to Hagoromo and Homura, the only descendant of Kaguya and yet somehow they are Kaguya's descendants. Does that make sense? Only if Kaguya had more children.

(iii) The backstory of the Uzumaki clan's heritage and extinction will change. They were feared for their demonic summons, sealing abilities and possible awakening of their powerful Dojutsu, Rinnegan.

(iv) This means the story will change entirely with different events and powers.

So, if only if you are fine with such changes should you invest your time in this fan-fic. I will add more paragraphs to this as the story progress.

Note: I will be expanding the world a bit more and shed more details on the geography of the shinobi world. Since some of the arcs and chapters will be outside the leaf village.

As I mentioned in the synopsis, there will be several continents and islands other than the Shinobi world. This story will explore all these islands with several arcs in other nations and continents. The story progress will be slow and most of the time would be spent on world building and exploration.

There will be several slice of life moments. If you are looking for back-to-back action arcs, then this novel won't be for you.

The story starts when MC is 4 years old. And we won't see him graduate academy until like 75+ chapters. I have clear cut story arcs in mind. Chapters will be twice as long as of Madara's Grandson. The average length of Madara's Grandson chapter is 1500 words, but for the new story it will be 2500-3000+ words.

So, the 75+ chapter of this story equates to 150+ chapters of Madara's Grandson. Since the chapters are twice as big, the updates will be slightly slow. 4 chapters/week. The reason being I want to finish the Madara's Grandson. Once Madara's grandson is complete, this will be my main story.

Several points above are subject to change depending on the story progress and reader's response. But I already have a roadmap in mind till 100 chapters at least.

I will soon upload some bonus chapters on my Kofi and Pa treon, for curious people. You can even ask me plot related questions there or on my discord.
