Hello everyone.
After re-reading this work, I have finally decided to re-write it. Now, I already have a name for the rewrite in mind, and that will be 'Naruto - Harbinger of Peace'.
Now, I will admit that the final few chapters of 'Jaded Harbinger of Peace' were terribly rushed and the entire story was... terrible I might add. It had potential, but I didn't allow that to happen and in my opinion, the entire fanfiction just flumped rather badly. So, that is why I have decided to re-write it and change things up... a lot.
Anyway, I won't say when the rewrite will be uploaded fully. I will wait until I am far enough into the rewrite to do so, and when I am ready, I will update this once again to let you all know that it is going live. Unless you follow me as an author, you won't get updated right away.
Now, I want to be honest with you. From the first chapter rewrite alone, I can tell you all that it will seem like a completely different fic, however, it still has the same backbone that Jaded Harbinger had.
I will go over the changes that you can expect to see from the original;
MINOR CHANGES
- Naruto is NOT jaded. I failed horribly at making him like that in the first place.
- Velvet is still the 'Main' girl. However, she will get more screen time, along with Coco.
- Kurama is no longer in the fic, as Naruto no longer was 'transfered' between dimensions. More will be explained in the major changes.
- Naruto can use all the Elements and Sub-Elements, all though he rarely uses most of them.
Alright, so nothing too groundbreaking within the minor changes. I felt like Kurama being in the minor change was useful, considering that he hardly had a role within the original fanfiction in the first place.
Alright, now we get into the major changes that will definately make this fic different compared to the re-write plot wise.
MAJOR CHANGES
- Due to circumstances during and after the Fourth Shinobi War, Naruto has become something akin to an immortal. He hardly ever ages, and always looks like he is in his prime. After the events of the Fourth Shinobi War, he sealed himself away to prevent anyone trying to gain his friendship in order to gain power. That means he doesn't become Hokage because if he was tied to a single village, then the power scale and the fear of said village will rise and most certainly bring another war.
- Naruto unsealed himself after humanities first 'wipeout', and has witnessed the rebirth of the human race, and has witnessed the two Brother God's living within the human race. He came into contact with Salem - pre-curse - and Ozma, along with seeing much of what humanity had to offer.
- Ozma never became jealous and the actions that he took within the original are nothing anymore.
- He witnessed the Brother God's eliminating humanity thanks to the actions of Salem. However, instead of letting Salem wander the land alone, he did 'visit' her on the occasion, trying to help her find solace in the fact that her actions have consequences and tries to remedy her and help her. However, once Salem took the plunge into the Land of Darkness, Naruto visited her one last time, before vanishing once again.
- He was there when humanity evolved once again, he saw the creation of Dust and its uses, and he also witnessed the birth of the first Faunus.
- While Naruto is still in his own little 'sanctuary', he still exits from time to time, helping those severly in need (The poor/homeless) and he helps those that are beginning to fall down the path of darkness, and he often appears to those of pure hearts when they need help the most.
- Naruto's influence is much more larger and more broader in Remnant with the people that he has helped.
- The 'relationships' that he has are much more different than in the original and some of those play a role within the characters themselves and have a role in the story.
- Due to Naruto's influence, some larger names within the world and the criminal world are no longer living, instead, they are having thier punishment for trying to take something pure, and try to use it for their own gains.
- Some people who were meant to be dead are still alive. Some people that are alive in Canon have been killed, either due to criminals, sickness or missions.
Alright, now that you have seen the changes, you can tell that this would be a rather big re-write, and hopefully, it will be better than the original by a large margin. I hope that you can still stick around and wait for it to be released and give your thoughts on everything.
