So, is royalties from sales of the Icha Icha series a thing?
We could open up a Gokestu clan store to sell Gokestu merchandise, including Icha Icha books as souvenirs to travelers.

Look, if Hiashi is going to claim that we're evil foreign plants out to subvert Leaf and re-carve it into our own disturbing image, and that Ami is here to assist us under a bogus paper-thin excuse, we may as well act the part.
Goal for the month: meet and exceed Hiashi's worst expectations!

How common are printing presses again? It is hard to have a widely sold book series without them. They are also very easy to reverse engineer. If you have an example of a printed work it isn't hard to notice that the lettering is uniform and figure out is was made in the same ways as stamps and woodcut printing.
Nara having a monopoly on printing doesn't make much sense.

Who is they? The technique in printing press is movable type which is just assembling your template from smaller components and not particularly difficult to come up with.

Yes. Part of what the training covers is how to pass between the Paths without having your mind exploded. Given that the first thing that happens after signing the contract is that a critter appears and reverse-summons you, it's useful to have that knowledge."player QUINOA" said:
As of chapter 265, the Pangolins have an embassy or other point of communication with the Toads, the Condors, and the Otters."player QUINOA" said:
Yes. She was evasive and uncomfortable with the topic but she said she'd see about bringing it up with them.
One user can't stack it because it's concentration-based. HDK about groups.player QUINOA said:
Clan adoption requires consent. Also, most things piss Tsunade off.player QUINOA said:
Clan and clanless ninja are equal in the eyes of the law. (i.e., de iure, not de facto) Due to the sheer numbers, the state simply can't afford to provoke them en masse by legalising discrimination. Every village leader is aware that if discontent exceeds a certain critical mass, the clanless will just do a mass Shikigami, and the village can't afford to send half its village to hunt down the other half.player QUINOA said:

I fully, unironically want to do this. Or anything else that lets us test a WMD/WMD prototype without getting us or anyone else killed. Walter had a point in that we don't really have all this power we think we have, until we actually test out the WMDs and make sure they work.

- Yes.
Wait, what about the Leopards (allies of convenience/future vassals) or Hyenas (conquered)?
...was this before xor after her decision to no longer sell seals to the Pangolins?
Having a demonstrable WMD seems far more trouble than it's worth, except for desperate last measures.

Hmm. If by "the Five" Pain indeed referred to the five Paths between the Human Realm and the Summon Realm, is it possible that we could learn something about them by "looking around" while "passing" between? Perhaps we'll need to disregard the summoning training a little to do so, have our mind exploded just a little? I vote we contact Hidan for D-class personnel.
Interesting idea. We should ask Mari if she thinks she could improve on Shikigami's plan.

It's proof that we aren't one-hit wonders though, and are worth keeping around longer.

This sounds like a great way to go on some Fantastic Adventures on the other paths. I am curious if there are other Humans somewhere.

Imagine, you are a Leaf Ninja. Your village is undoubtedly the strongest, keeping evil Mist in check until the next time you have to put them down.
Imagine, Jiraiya of the Sannin starts a clan with "former" Mist Ninja that have somehow gained Jiraiya's trust. Jiraiya must have been thinking with the wrong head when he engaged Mari the Heartbreaker.
In fact, the "former" Mist Ninja that Jiraiya made a new clan with only have strength in that same Heartbreaker. Two middling sealmasters, and the younger three members are all the dredges of their "former" clans. Weak.
Imagine, Jiraiya has died. "Goketsu", Mist in all but name, remain in Leaf. Now they send their "former" Mist Jonin to try to take the Hat‽ This blatant level of disregard for Leaf's strength, coupled with what is very clearly a bluff of strength on their part, only demonstrates an incompetence on Mist's part. And by moving like this, they have finally allowed loyal Leaf Ninja to remove them!

You know, I accepted that our primary mistake in all this was not giving Keiko enough emotional support and not communicating our intentions clearly.
But then, I realized we did try, right after returning to Leaf, when we had Hazou do exactly this, as well as convince her to support him in convincing Jiraiya drop the contract. The result was that we got hit by a compel on Foot in Mouth, and the whole thing backfired due to Hazou saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. No further attempts were made.
I'm not trying to complain about those decisions, and compels have since been removed anyway. But this, to me, is yet another argument that this particular Trouble of Hazou's simply doesn't make for a fun questing experience.

Thats a very strong opinion. Would you mind going into detail on the why? Its not so helpful for @Noumero to make his action plan better if all he gets is "This section is super dumb and will never work."
Speaking frankly, if this was my plan I would just read this comment and then throw it out, since it doesn't give me anything tangible to work with.
Funny how they ignored the "missing-nin" and "traitors to Mist" parts. I guess it's a step-up.

Actually, at this point I'm inclined to vote for a plan that kills Keiko off.
Why would we want to leave only observant Sealmasters alive?

Hahahaha.
Whose list was that?
Damn, it explain so much...
Yup.

Well, it's concentration plus a rather long time after concentration ends, which means that Akane could theoretically drop concentration and re-cast it while the original effect still lingers. However...
We already got an answer to the question a while ago.
