His sister may have been given the Kyuubi, but armed with Namikaze Minato's greatest sealing masterpiece, Uzumaki Naruto will carve his way through the shinobi world- one body at a time.

The new world called upon the Four Heroes to save their world from their impending destruction. While three of them were newbies, the fourth, the Shield Hero, looks like a bum! However, there is much more to the Shield Hero named Naofumi Iwatani that meets the eye, especially his no-shit attitude, and his stats completely maxed out. Who is he? Come and find out! OP Naofumi!

Raphtalia had only wanted to get an object that'd help Naofumi to like her... but she never could have imagined how bad it'd backfire on her. And though she finds out she never needed such an object, she and Naofumi still find themselves on the run from a group of assorted women that they grow to fear more than the Three Heroes Church. RaphtaliaxNaofumi.

If there was any doubt in Erhard's mind about whether Naofumi assaulted Myne or not, it was cleared one faithful day. (Or Naofumi's never had "the talk" and it's up to Erhard to be the adult in this situation.) Warning: Mentions of rape and sex (nothing explicit). Slightly AU. Also posted to AO3.

Harry walks away from his time at the Dursley's scarred, jaded, and with an unusual talent for illusions. Possessing an independence streak a mile wide, hidden behind a well maintained facade of normality, how will the wizarding world deal with a 'savior' who thinks nothing of them. Jaded and dark grey Harry, sisterly Luna, Harry/Fleur. Attempted no bashing.

Four times Naofumi healed someone else, one time he was hurt by someone, and all the times he hurt others.

An entry that was rushed.

A scar that was gently cared by the two girls he held dear to him. Yet, scars don't heal that easily. History will be repeated if he ever forgets these past events that's befallen him. He could lose everything... again

Naofumi finds L'Arc on the battlefield and decides to save him. They get to talking and...end up understanding each other a lot more than before.

Does the hero always win? All fairy-tales end when the heroes save the day, however, is reality like that? "I'm the Shield; my duty is to protect. If a hero is not enough, I shall become whatever is necessary. Devil, demon, Demon Lord. I need defense, defense that surpasses the gods. To protect those whom I've been left with, to fullfil my duty. I'm the Shield!" "I am the Shield!"

Naofumi is always scolding the other 3 heroes that this isn't a game. Let's see what happens when Naofumi can continue a save upon his death.

Naofumi's done it. The waves of Catastrophe are over. The worlds were saved. But he isn't happy because his hardest choice still lies ahead of him.

No threat is too innocent-looking for Filo to protect her Master from.

Hurt and cursed from their battle with the zombie dragon, Raphtalia asks Naofumi to stay by her side for the night. He agrees, not noticing her feelings toward him. The swordswoman doesn't mind despite her love towards Naofumi, as long as she enjoys the little things of fighting by his side. Alternate ending to episode 8, "Curse Shield."
