Naruto Chapter 469

Show of hands... how many of you are NaruHina fans?

How many of you nearly went into rage induced heart attacks come Naruto, Chapter 469?

The pink haired bitch must die.

Sharpen your pitch forks and keep your torches doused in oil.

We may soon march on Tokyo.

RANT!

As you all know from one of my previous posts, Kishimoto has basically forgotten the little, tiny bit of NaruHina development we had- it went something along the lines of HINATA CONFESSING HER FOOKING FEELING TO NARUTO AND NEARLY DYING FOR HIM!!!!!.

Thus, I present the following rant.

WARNING: This rant is not suitable for overtly religious zealots who believe just speaking God's name will damn you to hell to get butt-raped by horny demons for all eternity.

And without further ado...

Why in the name of unholy Lucifer, holy baby Jesus Christ, storm driven Susanoo, firey Amaterasu, unearthly Tsukiyomi and every bijuu from lowly Ichibi no Shukaku to apocalyptic Kyuubi no Kitsune hasn't that blundering, imbecilic, absolutely naive baboon Uzumaki Naruto confronted Hinata yet!? By the names of every God, Demon, Angel and Devil from the unholy frozen waste of the Fourth Round of Hell's Ninth Circle, Judecca, to the Seventh Terrace of Prugatory, to Eden, even to the holyest Ninth Sphere of Heaven, Primum Mobile, if a girl gets stabbed defending me, if that girl proclaims her love for me and fights what is clearly a losing battle for the sake of defending me, the once, twice, nay, THRICE God damned thing I would do as soon as the smoke cleared, the moment the enemy was a corpse, the absolute SECOND I knew she was still alive, is go up to her and ask WHY!!!!!!!!!!! Confront her, you thrice damned spawn of a Hokage!!!!!!!

... Happy as I am with that development...

Why the fuck haven't we gotten any closure on this development!?!?

We have waited nearly 10 years, Kishimoto-san.

We will not wait much longer.

NaruHina Forever

Most of you head probably read chapter 437 of the Naruto Manga. The latest Chapter.

Hinata has finally confessed, and immmediately afterwards, dies(presumably).

I still feel the rage coursing through me. As far as I'm concerned, the entire franchise- and Kishimoto's life- is balanced on the edge of a knife. Pray for your soul, Masashi, if Hinata is not alive.

Recently, I have discovered the name of chapter 438... and I grinned. And laughed. Laughed for a long, lone time.

438. The Seal Breaks!! (封印破壊!! ,Fūin Hakai!!)

Just the mere thought of the fight to come... it brings a vicious, twisted smile to my face.

As far as I'm concerned... Pein... all of Konoha, maybe.... is about to End.

10 Promises Uzumaki Naruto Couldn't Keep

10 Promises Uzumaki Naruto Couldn't Keep

A/N: Was originally gonna be 20 promises, but then I realized I couldn't come up with that many. Tragic character death. NaruHina. 20 Truths format I suppose, only it's 10. I was in part inspired to write this by reading "Twenty Times Uzumaki Naruto Didn't Die", by Kraken's Ghost, on fanfiction.net. Don't like it when Naruto actually dies in defense of his village, don't like NaruHina, don't effing read.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. If I did, Hinata would've already confessed her feelings for the ever so dense blonde. I swear, it's almost as bad as how nobody realizes Naruto is Yondaime's son...

10 Promises Uzumaki Naruto Couldn't Keep

1) After the second time it happened, Uzumaki Naruto promised himself he would NOT fail the academy again. Some would say he didn't. But Naruto knows. Naruto couldn't perform a regular bunshin if his life depended on it. He knows that. He also knows that you cannot graduate from the academy unless you can successfully perform the 3 basic jutsu: Henge, Kawarimi, Bunshin. He knows that, if it weren't for Mizuki tricking him, he would never have become a genin. Because he can't perform a regular bunshin, and no one would think of teaching him a higher-level bunshin to subsitute for it. So, he smiles, he laughs, he pranks- but on the inside, he cringes, because he knows that without Mizuki, he couldn't have kept his promise.

2) Even before he knew about Kyuubi, Naruto had promised himself he would never stoop to the villagers level, would never hate them back. On the outside, it would appear he had kept that promise. On the inside, he had failed miserably. He hated them. They had made his childhood a cold, dark, and lonely hell. It angers them so much how unfairly they treat him. How they treat him like he doesn't deserve to exist. Jiraiya has concluded that the seal is weakening, and that Naruto is very brash, and that is why he can so quickly access Kyuubi's chakra. That's only half the reason. The other half, Naruto hates the villagers, and he wants to draw out Kyuubi's chakra, because he hopes that, for maybe even a moment, he'll lose control.

3) Naruto promised himself that one-day, he and Sakura would be together one day. He repeated this promise to himself every time she violently turned him down. He repeated this every time she fawned over Sasuke, although with less conviction. He stopped repeating it when she tearfully begged him to bring Sasuke back. He never forgot it. Three years later, one Hyuga Hinata admitted her feelings to him. This is one of the only promises he doesn't regret keeping.

4) When his crush and teammate begged him to bring Sasuke back, he promised he would. Naruto failed this promise, several times. It tore him up inside. He always said to himself he'd accomplish it next time. From the technical point of view, he did do it. A technical, cold, emotionless point of view To Naruto, to what remained of Team 7, bringing home a corpse was in no way bringing back a friend.

5) Naruto promised Sasuke he would do whatever it takes to bring him back to Konoha. Without fail, whenever it came down to the line, he flinched. He couldn't aim that first rasengan lower. He couldn't bring himself to use Kyuubi's chakra on him. He couldn't stop thrusting forward that last Rasenshuriken. And so his promise- and the Uchiha scion- were torn to pieces by the winds.

6) Naruto promised he would never lose any of his precious people. Not if he could help it. When Sasuke betrayed Konoha, he always had the hope of getting him back. That hoped died, scattered on chakra enhanced blades of wind. When he brought that battered corpse to Sakura, he lost another precious person. In the war to come, he would lose many more. Till the day he died, he would hate himself for being too weak to keep this promise.

7) When Sasuke had "died" protecting him from Haku, Naruto promised that he would never let anyone die protecting him again. If anyone was going to die, HE would do it protecting THEM. Sai took a chidori through the heart, allowing him to drive that Rasenshuriken into Sasuke. Kakashi-sensei died taking down Konan, keeping her from capturing him him. Tsunade-baachan and Yamato-taicho died stopping Pein. This is the promise he hates himself most for failing to keep.

8) Naruto promised himself he would find out who his parents were. That he would find a grave to visit. He never did. It would be a cold day in hell before the council informed him of his heritage, and the only people who knew of his heritage and were willing, had all died before they could. He would never, in life, discover who his parents were. When he died, and he saw who was waiting for him on the other side, he would be shocked. The grin on that man's face would slowly fade. A woman's eyes would gaze in worry. A scream of rage would rip from the tortured boy's throat, and the man would know he had forever lost his one and only son.

9) Naruto finally gathered the courage to propose to Hinata, 2 full years after she revealed her feelings to him. She had said yes. She had firecely kissed him. And then she had then fainted. Hiashi and Neji had both then had private audiences with him. Neji had stated, that if he hurt Hinata-sama in any way, he would not live to regret it. Hiashi outright stated he would liquify all of his internal organs, beat him to death with his own spine, and use his skull as a ramen bowl if he EVER made his daughter cry. He was utterly convinced he would never fail this promise (and utterly fearful for his soul if he should fail).

They were going on a mission. Head into the Akatsuki main base, and take down Uchiha Madara, or die trying. The team consisted of Rock Lee, Hyuuga Neji, Haruno Sakura, Inuzuka Kiba, Aburame Shino, and Uzumaki Naruto. Of course, the village was (slightly) against sending their (grudgingly) instated Rokudaime Hokage into battle, but he was one of the only ones who could hope to stop Madara.

Hinata would've come to, but for several things. One, Naruto had pulled rank and wouldn't let her. Two, he had begged her to stay, to not try and go on this mission. Three, he had a full ANBU squad shadowing her. Finally, she was 6 months pregnant. The team stood at the gates, ready in full ANBU battle gear, as the Rokudaime said farewell to his wife. She had kissed him, tears streaming down from her pale, pearl white eyes. She had looked him in the eye. She had said three words. "Please, don't die."

He had stared back into her eyes. He gave a cocky grin. He clasped his hands behind is head, and cocked his head to the side. She couldn't help but give a small smile at this. This was truly the man she loved "Don't worry, Hina-hime. I'll come back alive. I promise."

With that, the group left. She did not stop worrying, but she was confident he would return. When Uzumaki Naruto made a promise, he kept it. This one would be no different. She never stopped to contemplate the other option.

He sat there, propped up against the wall. He stared at Madara's beaten, shattered corpse. Surprisingly, the Akatsuki leader's mask, while cracked, still covered his face. The cave rumbled around them, chunks of debris and dust falling to the floor. On the far side of the cavern, that monolithic statue, containing the power of the other 8 bijuu, shook, cracks spreading across its surface, an unholy light beaming forth from it.

He coughed up blood, and clutched his hand to the wound in his chest. It gave him a small sense of deja vu, considering how close to his heart the fist sized hole had come. He weakly wiped blood from his face. Sakura and Shino, along with the unconscious Neji, and the- he teared up slightly at this thought- bodies of Kiba and Lee, were gone, unwilling cargo of several kage bunshin and the hirashin. He was glad he had learned that. At least none of his other precious people would die.

The rumbling abruptly grew more severe. A chunk of rock the size of his torso crashed down next to him. Wouldn't be much longer till the statue blew. Considering it contained the power of 8 apocalyptic demons, it was gonna blow BIG. It didn't help that because of Madara fucking around in his mind with those damn eyes of his, Kyuubi's seal was about to shatter.

Naruto tilted his head back to gaze into the darkness that shrouded the cavern ceiling. He knew he was going to die. Even if he got out of the blast radius of the statue, even if he managed to staunch his bleeding wounds, the influx of Kyuubi's chakra entering his body all at once would kill him, not to mention level his immediate vicinity into a barren wasteland. He wasn't getting out of here alive. The Shinigami would have his soul before the night was through.

A hole had opened in the cavern roof. He could see the stars. He remembered that every date he had ever had with Hinata, had ended with them laying embraced in an open field, gazing at the stars. The rumbling abruptly quieted, the statue glowing brighter than ever. He smiled sadly, keeping his gaze fixed on the stars. "Sorry Hinata-chan. I guess I can't keep my promise."

A deafening roar filled his ears. A brilliant light exploded before his eyes. Pain erupted within every fiber of his being, within his very soul.

Merciful darkness.
