Found this online, if it helps for inspiration on detail:
I pretty much used this and a dozen others as a rough guideline. Thanks though.
We can figure it out.

Your missing the beauty of it. Each ARS seal will be paired with an individual seal. So you don't have to worry about our entire load out going off at once. The downside is you only have one set of the defensive seals

To guarantee that we always have a valid target to substitute with
You wouldn't be able to with this scheme. If you wanted to do that would have to research different ARS keys for each individual scheme

[X] OMAKE: Everyone Peggy Sues back to the start of the quest except for Hazou, who is still being controlled by the hivemind
I concur!
This would give me the warm fuzzy feelings

Everyone, including Akatsuki?
Hazo: How the heck you all know this stuff?

- Yes.
Literally everyone. Think of all the chaos! The insanity! The hivemind would freak the fuck out, it'll be hilarious!

...That would be insane. Some serious bullshit would start going down in the swamp of death. Suddenly the whole swamp remembers being killed by Leaf and Mist. And they don't remember us being killed. We would have to keep everyone in the swamp from knowing that we fled while they died. And they would likely try to prevent our "suicide". Jiraiya would kill everyone all over again just to get us out. And if the swamp learns about that...
Also, what would Zabuza do?
What would Yagura do?
What would the Akatsuki do?
Kagome would be impossible to find.

Speaking of which, we need a rendezvous. A "everything has gone to hell, and we can't go to Leaf" type of rendezvous.

I tried for years to get one. Despite being paranoid the hivemind has very few contingency plans. It's part of our in ability to do any mid term planning

Did you? I don't recall, was it on Discord? I've only recently frequented it to any significant degree.

It was my off and on campaign to get us to contact Orchimaru. We still should figure out a place to bounce to if things go terrible. Isan is probably out and with Oro "dead" can't join him. Our best bet is probably to defect back to Mist

I think the most long term entertainment would be"Hazou, Noburi, Keiko, and Kagome peggy sue back to the start."
Yoinking Mati outta there immediately with a hasty WE KNOW would be pretty humorous, though I think its a coinflip whether Kagome would come sprinting through the camp on Skywalkers to kidnap us and blow up anyone standing in the way, or if he would just stake it out and wait for Hazou to start shit with the Liberator mess since for all he knows, he's the only one who remembers.
Noburi would be extremely freaked out. Hazou would likely be pretty resolved to not fuck everything up this time, and Keiko would have an existential crisis the likes of which we literally could not fathom.
Operation Lets Do the Time Warp Again would not go off without a hitch.Neo Mari would be beyond suspicious, Saving Akane 2.0 might end up with all of us dead and Iron on fire again, and it would ironically enough probably be quite difficult to gain Jiraiya's trust since we're no longer the lovable goofball sealmaster prodigy who also slam dunks the ball through the floor with a 1:20 frequency, especially if we just shovel superweapons at him.
Also, failing literally improbable events occuring, Akatsuki is still 2-3 years of work away from completing their masterplan, more or less. Once they get fed up with waiting for Yagura to stop turtling up (lol, isn't that funny?) in Mist and start a war to get at him, well, stopping them becomes more of a pipe dream.

Please don't imply we're being not-paranoid-enough when your alternative was to go behind Jiraiya's back to contact Orochimaru.

Sure you didn't agree with my idea. But we have literally no contingency plans in place for anything. So yeah we aren't actually properly paranoid at all.
Edit: another example is the fact that Jiraiya told us that if Hiashi got the hat we would die. If anyone brings up that being a possibility and that we should have a plan they immediately get jumped on.

Wait, you said we had to do something nice for him. How does that connect to the first one?
- Location
- Yes.
Perhaps we are also supposed to have Hiashi and Neji accidentally'd?

Because out of all the possible options, she's the one that best helps our efforts to create greater and deeper ties with Konoha?

I'm pretty sure Jiraiya was intentionally playing up the threat, so we would stop being idiots. Hazo is too valuable a resource to kill off arbitrarily, and he has far too little political power to be a threat. No, the most likely outcome if Hiashi wins is we get marginalized. If Jiraiya was still alive there would be a greater threat to us if Hiashi had the hat because Jiraiya had too much political power to just kick to the side and ignore. With him dead we're just not very important. Naruto joining us will change that a bit - but that comes with his Clan ceasing to exist, so the balance of power is pretty much the same as if Jiraiya hadn't pulled the stunt he did.
Trying to run would end... badly, though. Because then our marginalization is insufficient.
I do expect Hiashi to give us a hard time, as revenge for being slighted, but he's not the type to arbitrarily have us all killed when he can impress the point, kick us to the side, then use us for his own purposes.

Thanks! Its really awesome.
It would put us in a bad position: we'd get 2/3 of the Gouketsu's bloodline bearers married out.
So, first we need to get Hanabi to become the heir, rhen proceed to accidentally'ing Hiashi and Neji. This way we can marry Hinata in the clan.

For now, you're going to have to make do with this.
Edit: Lest I forget, the hivemind is allowed to make suggestions for the SOP discussion, and Hazō will ratify the result by default.
