But that shows up in Lightning first... it's the three tails that for some reason wanders over to sand.

We decided that the Three-Tails was not going to choose Sand as its first target.

Let's not give away too many spoilers we might have to delete later. The last thing we want is the players finding some way to search through the deleted posts and finding out all sorts of things they weren't meant to know.

I don't think posts are actually removed from the database on deletion, just made invisible for all intents and purposes to regular users IIRC.
I just need to become a staff user of sufficient priveleges to view those here, and then *evil laughter*.
(That sounds like work though, no thanks.)
I just want to throw a post out there since I am going through and reading this story. I just finished the chapter where Hazo royally fucked up and managed to get the team kicked out of the Leaf after threatening Kabuto. That was pretty frustrating to read since Hazo had up to that point fucked up and been disrespectfull to Jiraya so many times in conversations with him.
I don't know if questers pushed their luck with the super powerful ninja because they know him from Naruto or what... It was just weird reading this kid who has been a ninja for about a year mouthing off to someone who is so clearly their superior in every way while having the social skills that oscillate between terrible and managing to be adequate. I mean he isn't even a Leaf shinobi so he is nothing to Jiaraya and the only reason Hazo was not killed by him is because Jiraya is an incredibly weird and unique shinobi.
It was also dissapointing because Hazo created major problems for his whole team. While in the Leaf they were relatively safe and having a good time and in one move he ruined that for everyone else.
Anyways just wanted to throw that out there because this a well written story and I'm invested in it enough to care about Hazo royally screwing up.
P.S Is it okay for me to post like this and not talk about the current stuff in the thread? I just know I wont catch up for a while and knew I wouldn't post this by the time I caught up.

Yeah, without in-thread context it would be weird. What actually happened is that we added the statement in (I believe the intent was to emphasize that we'd sacrifice a lot of our own personal power in exchange for having Kabuto not be Akane's primary physician) without realizing what the optics would be. And before you ask, no, we did not consider the idea of making a threat against a Leaf-nin when we had ANBU watching the entire byplay a serious danger.
PS Yes, go ahead and talk about this stuff in the thread, or in the Discord channel. I would offer an invite link, but mine has expired.

It's fine to post things, yes. If you want to do reaction posts, that's great.
There are a few more stumbles in Hazō's future, but he eventually gets it under control and becomes reasonably good at socials.
Plot twist: J-man becomes Hazo's father and married his mother.

It Only Gets Worse From Here
I think it would be much more of a twist if it happened the other way around.

Rocks fall, everyone dies.
O man I finished chapter 122 and this business being back in Konoha is a little stressful to read because I keep expecting Hazo to mess up badly again.
I did like the 2 different views on what is acceptable safety precautions for using seals. I think both views make a lot of sense when you take into account the differences in resources and power available to Jiraya and Kagome.
I also read the AU and it is kinda weird how the questers tried to force the idea of vaccination when Hazo has not had any significant amount of medical training. Also trying to have him interact with Kabuto before they are settled seems... Risky I guess.
Anyways the story is still great so far!

Ok so I got another sealing idea that is potentially even better then the explosive armor.
You know how the sawblade barrier seal thing we use can (to my understanding of it atleast) cut through basically anything yeah?
Well the idea is essentially to make a downsized version of that seal that you can move around and for instance attach to a stick, just that alone would result in a sword that can cut through basically anything, which already super op on it's own.
but the more sophisticated and refined version of this seal would be one that could be incorporated into Hazo's claw gauntlets (and items like it) that way he would be able to cut through just about anything like he was the Siberian from Worm or something.
Also what kind of limitations exists on having a seal rapidly turn off and on again? Basically how fast can you put objects in and then out and then in and then out again out of in storage seals?

That's an excellent idea with miniaturizing force walls. Unfortunately, I think this is probably one of those times when if it was easy/possible it would have been done by others already, since ninja are always looking to make things more lethal. If it could be minaturized, Jiraiya would have tried to do it in order to get something he could carry around as a shield too, since he was thinking about making shields out of stuff like the air dome seal.
Iirc, we got force wall from Kagome, so I doubt it's unique since I think the only unique seal he had was implosion seals before we found him. If I'm wrong about that though it might be something that no one had a chance to improve since they just didn't have access to it.

Alternatively: Sink another 1000XP into sealing stats so we can get wrist-mounted Forceblades!

The QMs have never discussed it, but I'm confident that the answer is going to be "not as fast as you're hoping." They aren't designed as weapons or computing elements, they're designed as cargo devices.
Directional explosives are also his.
