It was their last, desperate gambit. Their last hope. They pinned everything on a prayer that he could save them...and now...he's not even sure if he can make it count anymore.

Uzumaki Naruto was born to be a shinobi. He was supposed to be a killer; a protector of unparalleled skill. His lineage and the demon in his gut ensured that. In canon, his growth was stunted. In here, he had a reason to be strong. He has to survive. AU.

Naruto's training trip with Jiraiya bore great results, right? Maybe not so obvious results. What if there was a catalyst that shifted the goals of the training trip? How will it change the world if Naruto's focus shifted from the Kyubi to his actual skills? Let's find out. (Starts after Sasuke Retrieval Arc and continues onward).

Following the end of the joint Chunin Exam test match with the other hidden villages, Naruto and his friends begin their training in preparation for the main event. However, just as their training gets under way, Konohagakure is suddenly attacked by a horde of monsters from another realm... [Current Arc- Konoha Crush Arc] [NarutoHarem]

Death has a funny way of coming back to bite you when you least expect it. Having lost the fourth shinobi war, Uzumaki Naruto is content to do just that; die and pass on to the afterlife. Unfortunately, the Shinigami has other plans for him. Plans that involve righting the wrongs of the past, restoring a broken clan, and creating a family all his own. Narutoxharem! I OWN NOTHING!

Konoha's Second Yellow Flash. It all started the day of the Kumo incident at the Hyuuga compound - one action altered the course of history and the ninja world. Rating may change. Will be epic in length. AU. Pairings are not the focus of the story, though they exist. Cover art belongs to amandas-sketches on deviant art. :) Not on Hiatus. At all. Working on it.

There are some boundaries that should never be crossed. Some things best left leashed. Forced to choose between certain death or the slim possibility of success, a lone shinobi catapaults himself to a distant era...in the middle of the Sekirei Plan! Narutoxharem! EDITED HEAVILY TO COMPLY WITH SITE GUIDELINES!

A chance collision early in Naruto's life will irrevocably change the path he takes; what happens when Naruto's views are shifted before even his dream to become Hokage? Where will his new path take him, and how many strings will he pull or threads will he trip over along the way? Puppeteer!Naruto.

A challenge response. While stealing the forbidden scroll Naruto found something more than the Shadow Clone. Blessed with new powers and new allies, Naruto starts his journey differently. Strong Naruto, not god-like.

I've walked this world for ages. Watching as history played itself out in front of my eyes. Sometimes, I would play role in its direction, but often I'd stay on the sidelines. Now, a more serious threat threatens to wipe out all of humanity, and I must now play a role in its survival... if there are any humans left to save.

A ROOT Naruto challenge from Mystic 6 tailed Naruto. Kushina agonized by deaths of her husband and baby spends 12 years in ANBU only to find Naruto alive as Root member. Watch as Naruto fights for Konoha while learning to be Human. AU-ish.

Some say that being in the wrong place at the wrong time can get you killed. Well, young Naruto will learn this the hard way, as he tried to find food near the Uchiha Clan Compound, only to find something else instead. A different twist to the Uchiha Massacre and Naruto receives a gift he never asked for in the first place. NarutoxOC and KakashixOC.

*RE-WRITTEN! NEW TITLE IS: Naruto: Rising Legend

Naruto was born five years before the Kyuubi attack and the fox was sealed into his younger sister. His parent don't have the time to teach him so he looks to others to help him become a great shinobi. AU Powerful Mokuton Naruto. Alive Minato and Kushina. Chapter coming soon :)

There is only one thing Naruto dreams of becoming; something he believes will earn him the respect a person of his social standing deserves and something he is willing to give his all to achieve. Employee of the Month! You know... the little things in life. But when you're working for Ichiraku's Ramen in a shinobi world, the universe tends to throw in all sorts of complications.

A broken promise sends Naruto spiralling down into a depression after his greatest victory. He is given a chance to make things right, to make things better. But this time, he won't be alone. This time, he'll do it as a Namikaze. M just in case.

Madara's lineage did not end at the valley of the end. His legacy lived on through Minato and into Naruto. Sharingan Naruto. Strong/Godlike! Naruto. NaruHina. COMPLETE

Unable to move onto the next life, Uzumaki Naruto travels the world. He comes back to Japan, the place where Konoha once stood, and soon finds himself sucked into a game of battling busty women. It all started when a girl fell on top of him. Literally.

As Naruto and Madara's final jutsu clash to decide the fate of the world, they rip a hole in the fabric of space and time which sucks them inside. Inside the vortex Madara's undead body has its souls ripped out and passes on, but Naruto's body and soul merge with the dead Uchiha. When Naruto exits the distortion, he is in the body of a child Madara in the time his mother was young!

In a twist of fate, Tobirama's only child survives and the Senju legacy continued. Years have passed since, and now two brothers have rose again to shake the entire world with their power, only this time they have the powers of both the Uchiha and Senju. NarutoXKushina, NaruHarem, ItachiSaku.

Minato knew the harsh life that Jinchuuriki must endure. After sealing the Kyuubi into Naruto, he made a change to the seal that gave Naruto all of his and Kushina's talents and abilities so he could defend himself from the cruel hard world. How will the world be affected when Naruto has the skills of two Kage level ninja? The first chapter is kinda dark after that its brighter.

After the Orochimaru Invasion, the Shinobi Council and Konoha Elders sat down with the Fire Damiyo to discuss a new Hokage. What if the Fire Damiyo read reports on the Invasion? What if he decided the Fifth Hokage should be Naruto? Naruto/Harem

What does it take to destroy something completely? Some would be fine with eradicating its soul. Others would argue that you must erase even the concept of the object from existence. AU, with a notoriously complex Magic system.

AU. What if Naruto had been raised by Kakashi his entire life and how would raising Naruto change Kakashi's life as well? NarutoHinata, KakashiAnko later on.

Spirited away from Konoha at an early age, Naruto finds a new family amid the strife of a battlefield as old as the shinobi nations. But what will he do when his new allies’ ambition is to change the world through a baptism by fire? An Akatsuki!Naruto fic
