* RealityEnsues:
** Naruto and his lovers learn the hard way that Shadow Clones ''can't'' be [[PowerPerversionPotential used for sex]]. After all, sex is a physically demanding (and often high impact) activity and Shadow Clones dispel if they take any damage.
** Rin and Kin both learn that just because Kiri's civil war is over and the new Mizukage has not one but two kekkei genkai doesn't mean the prejudice against such has dissolved or that everyone's happy with the new regime.
** Naruto's false humble beginnings[[note]] supposedly being a no-name orphan getting by on pure guts and hard work when he's actually the son of the Fourth Hokage and has the Kyuubi's power[[/note]] has caused resentment in other actual underdogs like Rock Lee. Even though he knows Naruto didn't have anything to do with it, Lee feels like people were manipulated into rooting for an apparent underdog who actually had the deck stacked in his favor.
** World peace is ludicrously difficult to achieve even if everyone arguably wants it. Old grudges need to be settled in a way that doesn't perpetuate the CycleOfRevenge, large alliances make other nations nervous, and many just see the alliance as a way to strengthen themselves for the inevitable next war.
** Konan's plan to rebrand the Akatsuki as a neutral police force meets with heavy resistance from everyone but Naruto's group as no one believes she's sincere and they're all aware that a large group of S Rank ninja can basically do whatever they want. Some consider them more dangerous than the previous Akatsuki since they have less defined goals and are willing to move in larger groups than just a single pair.
** When Naruto masquerades as a perverted ghost to lure in a particular kunoichi, he gets several other women who are interested in the idea. Given that he used a version of Temptation's Touch on all of them, they all end up yearning for him and have to form a support group over it.

* CallBack: Several things are referenced vaguely earlier in the story that play major roles later on, starting with the nail itself, the scroll that contained the Temptation Touch, that was meant to appear to be older than it really was.

* CharacterTics: Yoshino realizes that all the patrons on Club N are Naruto's Shadow Clones when she realizes they have the same manneirisms.

* ChickMagnet: Even when he's not trying to seduce anyone Naruto attracts girls to him.
* ChildSoldiers: One of the points that are part of Naruto's ambition of peace is in order to avoid this. In Konoha is starting to work because for the first time since the founding of the village the number of applicants for the Ninja Academy declined.



* CommonTongue: The whole Elemental Nations speak the same language, with the exception of the Al Bhed. Naruto, in order to please one of the girls that was coming to visit the Ghost made a point to learn it for her.
* ContaminationSituation: Sakura is sent to investigate one such situation. [[spoiler:It was actually a ruse created by Sasuke in order to get her out of the Village so he could either kidnap her or make her cure him.]]
* ConservationOfNinjutsu: Done almost literally by Nagato. Using more efficient chakra receivers and a mind-controlled Shukaku, he invades Konoha with 200 Paths of Pain. However, despite having the chakra to power them all, the bodies are lower quality and Nagato can only split his attention so many ways. So instead of six invaders [[OneManArmy each easily kage level]], it becomes more a battalion of elite jounin. It becomes one of the main reasons for his eventual defeat; one of those bodies would eventually become Sage, the resurrected corpse of the Animal Path pulling a HeelFaceTurn and joining the Family.
* ContrivedCoincidence: Ino just happens to decide to check on Sakura just as she's about to be date-raped.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first few chapters are more about the smut and the next conquest than anything else, then it begins to expand the worldbuilding in such a way that it couldn't be contained in a single story anymore and spawned several side stories.



* EmotionlessGirl: Sage. Not because she doesn't have emotions, but because she hasn't discovered them yet.



* EvilEvolves: Most of the new technology being used in the setting was first introduced by the antagonists, from [=VTOL=] aircrafts to Chakra drainers.
* EvilSorceress: Subverted. Hanami, from the Descendants of the Moon pulls from this imagery but isn't actually a sorceress.



* FamedInStory: Naruto is so famous in the setting that no one bats an eye (almost ever) when he starts spouting orders even though he's technically lower ranked than just about anyone.
* FantasticDrug: The aphrodisiac produced by the Furofuki's copies. They crank up the arousal to such a extent that the people affected by it loose their inhibitions completely.



* {{Foreshadowing}}: Happens all the time. Some throwaway line will play a role almost twenty chapters later.
* FormerRegimePersonnel: The Salamander Resistence in Ame.



* FromBadToWorse: Used several times throughout the story to point out that things will get worse still before they get better.
* GadgeteerGenius: Rikku, Selphie and Yutaka.



* GenderIsNoObject: One of the reasons that Naruto's harem actually works for his ambition. Since women can and do have positions of power they just have to maneuver themselves in that direction.
* GenerationXerox: Mito and Tsunade. Both are mean drunks that like to gamble.
* GoodFeelsGood: Fuka, after being revived, feels this way.
* GrandTheftMe: Several examples.

* HeroOfAnotherStory: D, a shadow clone Naruto created to please Tayuya, decided to strike out on his own.



* HiveQueen: [[spoiler:Furofuki engineers a situation where she becomes the de facto queen for the Aburame Clan.]]
* HollywoodHealing: With all the regeneration factors and healing techniques that Chakra allows is hard to avoid this, but not everything is possible, tough is hard to argue against it when even death is able to be cured under the right circumstances.
* HotterAndSexier: Early in the story Sakura, before she enters the harem, notes that several women started to have something that she called "The Glow" and she doesn't understand why is happening with everyone but her.

* TheLeader: Naruto rarely has to exert his control over his Harem, but when he does his orders are followed to the letter.
* LethalChef: Miya was this before receiving cooking lessons from Ayame and Naruto.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Or Daughter in this case. Tsunami was a carpenter before becoming a housewife, having learn the tricks of the trade from her father.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Canon already had this, but this story adds several others from other media to flesh out areas that were left open in canon.



* LoopholeAbuse: Defied. Suzume and Koharu at different points tried to go around the orders they received to not reveal anything about the Family but so far couldn't.



* MinorCrimeRevealsMajorPlot: Naruto saving Kurenai from being [[NaughtyTentacles tentacle raped]] uncovers Furofuki's plot to become another Kaguya. It just happens too late.



* MissionControl: Shikamaru, Ino and Karin combine to become one during the attack on Ame.



* ANaziByAnyOtherName: The Root.



* NoManShouldHaveThisPower: Said almost verbatim by Suzume in regards to the Binding.



* NotDistractedByTheSexy: Moegi gets annoyed that she can't seem to seduce Naruto.
* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: Naruto was still trying to save Sasuke until the moment he tried to kill Mikoto. From then on he stopped pulling his punches against Sasuke.
* NotSoDifferent: A question that was posed to Gaara about what was so different between him and Joseki. To this point he still hasn't given a satisfactory answer even to himself.



* ObfuscatingStupidity: Naruto uses this regularly before Pain's Invasion.
* ObstructiveBureaucrat: The councils of Konoha and Suna. It takes some time for the Family to get majority votes inside Konoha's council.
* OlderAndWiser: Naruto, during a date with Koharu throws the later for a loop as she didn't expect him to come right out and say it that he expected her to come to his point of view in regards to his ambition because she has a wealth of experience to which to draw upon on several issues that would likely come.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Not counting the Bijuu after receiving human bodies, several women received an agelift such as Koharu and Tsunade. Fuka was centuries old before becoming part of the Family.



* OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Averted. Tsunade has to delegate certain researches to others because she isn't as knowledgeable about them, such as what happened with Furofuki.



* OneManArmy: Tsunade doesn't want Naruto to have this mentality.



* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Kabuto's Edo Tensei evolve from the ones Orochimaru used during Konoha's Crunch to be more as he incorpores other elements into them.
* OutsideTheBoxTactic: Naruto, in order to save Yakumo, instead of sneaking around, doubles down using the Healing Chakra Pulse.



* PersonOfMassDestruction: Hotaru. The Fury Seal she has on her back has only possible outcome.



* PoliceState: Iwagakure and Earth Country as a whole is portrayed this way.
* PoorCommunicationKills: At different points, both Ino and Yuugao can't express their problems properly before shit hits the fan.



* PowerAtAPrice: The Eight Gates are portrayed like this even more than in canon. Here, just the act of trying to open the Gates can cripple someone, something that almost happened to Lee when he was dueling Naruto. The latter didn't let him even try before giving him a tongue lashing about his stupidity.
* PowerPerversionPotential: Subverted. The Temptation Touch was originally given to Naruto exactly to be used as a power trip to make him fall, but Naruto used it differently and refused to let it get to him.



* PrivateMilitaryContractors: The Shinobi Villages supposedly work like this. [[spoiler: Sasuke's attack on Ame was writen off as him being contracted by the Salamander Resistance to assassinate Konan.]] Outside of them there's the protection details that exist for the Shipments from the Golden Leaf Shipment Company, that aren't part of any military and are contracted exclusively for the company. They don't answer to any Village.
* PsychicPowers: Ino is shown to be developing several skills that are tied to this.
* PutOnABus: Due to the size of the Harem it isn't hard to go by several chapters without some of the members even being mentioned.

* RedemptionEarnsLife: Fuka.
* ReferenceOverdosed



* RelationshipUpgrade: Rather than the normal for this trope, the upgrade in this case is visible on the Chakra of the women in the family, as the color of their Chakra dictates how far along in their relationship with Naruto they are.



* SafetyInIndifference: How to the Daimyo of the Minor Countries view their problems with the Major ones. As long as it doesn't affect them they don't care. It's why Toki has so much problems with trying to create a Minor Country Alliance.



* SecretKeeper: Few people are aware of the secret society that the Family created without actually being bound to Naruto. Kakashi, Hanare, Toki, Gaara and Sari are a few examples.



* SensorCharacter: Karin. Naruto and Naruko when using Sage Mode. Mito and Kiyomi's negative emotion sensing.
* SerialKiller: Yuugao and Fuka are investigating a string of assassinations when Furofuki's plot go into action.

* SharingABody: For a time, Naruto and Kushina, during the period she's occupying Kiyomi's old chakra body.
* ShiftingSandLand: Suna and Wind Country.



* ShirtlessScene: During training Naruto has no problem in removing his shirt if he gets too sweaty. The girls around him appreciate it.
* ShownTheirWork: So many things happen simultaneously in this story that to tie it together there's a lot of work being done. Just the geopolitical climate and techniques explanations goes to show how much thought is put into everything.
* SiblingYinYang: Itachi and Sasuke according to Mikoto.



* StudentAndMasterTeam: Tsunade, Sakura and Shizune. Kurenai, Yakumo and Hinata.
* SupportingLeader: Tsunade is the Hokage but the one who really calls the shots is Naruto.



* SwordFight: Several but one stand out is between Miya and Kisame, because she isn't using Chakra he can't help but to have to battle her using his sword.
* SyntheticPlague: [[spoiler: One created by Sasuke in order to lure Sakura away from Konoha.]]
* TakeAThirdOption: When Naruto is confronted with the options of taking Komachi by force in order to silence her or killing her he simply let's her go, fully aware that isn't the best option but is the one that will let him live with himself and his ideals.
* Telepathy: All the Bijuu possess this among themselves. Kiyomi can communicate with Mito as well because she was her first Jinchuuriki. Ino can as well in more broad sense and can connect several people using the Amplification Device.



* TheyHaveTheScent: The Inuzuka Clan actually creates several different types of scented perfumes and even formulas to erase the scent of people.
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: Subverted. One of the points of contention that Lee has against Naruto is that in his view Naruto's entire persona and history was fabricated in order to create a hero, but that the moniker wasn't actually earned, disregarding all his hardships on early childhood as false.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Kotetsu and Izumo.
* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: Momo's entire worldview before her attack on Kiyomi and Naruto.
* TimeSkip: Some times the story jumps ahead a few days, weeks or even months.



* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Ramen is Naruto's, obviously.
** All the girls start to savor different tastes from Naruto's release, generally tied to something they themselves enjoy.
* TrainingFromHell: Naruto and Naruko go through one to master Sage Mode.
* TwoTeacherSchool: Aside from Iruka and Suzume, no other teacher at Konoha's Shinobi Academy has any significance to the plot.



* UndisclosedFunds: While the characters talk about revenue and upswing or downswing in value, or about the costs of a mission they never actually talk numbers.



* WarIsHell: A point which Naruto goes out of his way to try and convey.



* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Katsuyu tries to understand what makes so many women around Naruto have sex with him.



* YouAreNumberSix: Chomei insists on going by "Seven", never giving out her real name to anyone.

* YouAreWorthHell: Naruto to Gaara when he saves him from being executed for a crime he didn't commit. Several other times about his lovers where he takes a course of action that will please one of them but will put everything the others are doing in jeopardy because it's just who he is.
* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: The Salamander Resistance against Konan's government of Ame.
* ZergRush: Essentially what Pain tried to do. Instead of Six powerful bodies he used hundreds of low quality ones during his invasion.

In reality, she was still an AntiHero at the time and insisted on only attacking fellow pirates. Her crew mutinied and tried to kill her, causing her to kill them in response.

* TheNotSoHarmlessPunishment: Yuugao is punished for almost killing Suzume (in retaliation for her attempt on Naruto's life) by... Naruto having sex with her every night for a month. Seems great initially, except Naruto goes out of his way to wear her out which, on top of a huge workload dealing with an upcoming event, means she gets through each day barely conscious.

Fuuka manages to figure out both the order of the killings and why they were killed in said order (namely the killer was seducing her targets and was building up confidence in her looks/abilities).

* SafeSaneAndConsensual: That Haruka's first owner didn't follow this practice causes her a lot of trouble down the road. When the idea of Naruto becoming her newest owner comes up, he admits that she needs far more abuse than he's remotely comfortable with and ends up giving her to Anko. Anko herself engineers a situation that's as extreme as she can safely create just to make sure Haruka isn't so broken that she won't use the safeword she's given.

* RightForTheWrongReasons: When Naruto goes AWOL to save a falsely-accused Gaara from execution in Eroninja, the Royal Guard presiding over the execution demands Temari write up a list of everyone who might aid Naruto. Once Temari hands back a page completely full of names, the Royal Guard assumes Temari made most of them up to make them waste time checking each name on the list. In reality, every person (male and female) named on that list would aid Naruto (most of them unconditionally), but Temari knows Naruto is smart enough to avoid any of his known allies and would thus avoid everyone on that list.

* BodyguardingABadass: At one point, Yoruichi acts as Kiyomi's bodyguard.
* BoringButPractical: Kiyomi's business, which earns considerable amounts of money and give Naruto and the family reasons to travel all over the continent, is a simple shipping business.



* DCupDistress: Samui rather dislikes her considerable bust and at one point schedules breast reduction surgery, though Hinata convinces her not to.



* MuggingTheMonster: A group of assassins try to take out Kiyomi due to her shipping business causing problems for a rival. As Kiyomi is the Kyuubi's human form, they all die horribly.

* AdaptationalVillainy: A variant. Rather than acting as a HeelFaceRevolvingDoor, Sasuke just continues spirally deeper into villainy.



* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Naruto states that he understands why Minato sealed the Kyuubi within him, explaining that the man had to make a choice between doing what's best for his village and what's best for his family. While Naruto doesn't begrudge Minato his decision, Naruto doesn't think he'd ever be able to sacrifice his family in favor of the village.



* ADateWithRosiePalms: Naruto lampshades at one point that he's masturbating for the first time in years and only doing so due to a self-imposed rule of his[[labelnote:*]]Naruto promised to never think about another woman while having sex with one of his lovers. But the current reason he's so horny is that he walked in on his mother masturbating[[/labelnote]].
* DecliningPromotion: [[spoiler:Naruto turns down Tsunade's offer to make him Hokage as he'd refuse to do the job halfheartedly but doesn't want to be forced into a position like is father was where he'd have to choose between the village and his family]].



* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Naruto and his lovers work tirelessly towards world peace. However, they all realize that if the world found out a secret group manipulated everyone towards peace, many would view it as justification to go to war again. As such, it's been agreed that even after peace is achieved, they can never claim any credit.



* HeWhoFightsMonsters: A distinct worry for Suzume is that Naruto might not actually be a Corrupter and that she's simply jumping at shadows in her plan to expose and murder him. Her biggest moment of doubt comes when she strips naked and (not really) drukenly begs him to fuck her. Not only does Naruto turn Suzume down and cover her up, but the next day he seems even more mortified than she does.



* HiddenDepths: Rock Lee secretly moonlights as a porn star.



* IdenticalStranger: Naruto poses as a gangster named Menma who had plastic surgery to look more like Naruto after the shinobi ruined his life.
* ImmortalProcreationClause: The rejuvenated and now [[TheAgeless ageless]] women ''can'' have children but doing so will remove their immortality. Also, Naruto can't have children (Kiyomi's chakra kills his sperm when he orgasms) so the only way for them to have children is by breaking up with him and taking another lover. Kiyomi is willing to also make immediate family of Naruto's lovers immortal but they'll be under the same conditions: being rendered sterile in exchange for eternal youth.
* IncestIsRelative: The BreedingCult members very frequently have sex with any other members, including family members. Meanwhile, Naruto's family has several members who are related but none of them think much of having sex with each other if Naruto's present.



* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Sasuke goes from "Kill my brother to avenge my clan" to "Kill the ones who "made" my brother kill my clan"[[note]]In this story, Itachi wasn't blackmailed or threatened into killing his clan; he came up with the idea himself[[/note]] to "destroy the current shinobi system and kill people close to Naruto because it'll hurt him". Notably, Sakura gives up on Sasuke much sooner than Naruto but everyone (Naruto included) consider Sasuke past the MoralEventHorizon when he tries to kill his own mother.
* LoveEpiphany: The subject of the Temptation's Touch Jutsu only reaches the final level not when they fall in love with the wielder but when they truly understand their feelings, such as when Tayuya realizes how much Naruto cares for her and he'll never abandon her like Orochimaru did.



** Franchise/GIJoe

* NeighbourhoodFriendlyGangsters: Menma's gang, the Black Fox Gang, take the idea of protection money seriously. If someone pays their protection money, they get protection from everything from burglaries to fires to sickness. If they don't pay the protection money, rather than having their business vandalized, they simply don't get any protection. Given that the city they're based in is also host to a much more brutal gang, every business in their territory pays regularly. Furthermore, their entire territory is known for having a ridiculously low crime rate with them policing it.

* PleasePutSomeClothesOn: When Suzume tries to test Naruto by pretending to be drunk, stripping naked, and begging him to have sex with her, Naruto promptly covers her up and leaves.



* PragmaticVillainy: Menma pretends to be this when a man owing him a large gambling debt tries to sell his daughter into prostitution to pay off his debts. Naruto tricks him into selling himself (and being put to work in a mine), then plays it off as him not wanting a subordinate sweet on the daughter to turn against him. Furthermore, he owns a 30% stake in the family store and the father would run it into the ground with his gambling whereas it's profitable under the daughter.
** He also forgives the debts of the women working at the brothel he took over. With more money going to the workers instead of their husbands/fathers debts, they're more enthusiastic about their work which draws in more customers, earning both him and them far more money.



* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Ino gives one to [[FishOutOfTemporalWater Toka]] after the latter continuously objects to shows of affection.
-->'''Ino''': "You are miserable and insist everyone be equally as miserable as you. That is why you refuse to move out. You want to force us all to comply with your ideas of how we should conduct ourselves. I’m simply not going to play along.”
-->'''Toka''': “So instead you decide to act like a whore, and prostrate yourself before this man who barely values you since he’s taken so many lovers and all because you lack the self-esteem to stand on your own."
-->'''Ino''': “Look here lady! This is our house, not yours. And you better get used to the idea because sooner or later we’re not going to need to hide our feelings for Naruto. Eventually Kurenai will move out, or… When that happens you can be as unhappy as you want and pout in the corner, but we’re going to act like the family that we are. Oh, and just so you know. He values me plenty. Thanks to his love and encouragement, I went from an underfed and weak kunoichi to the head of my clan. It is because we are so secure in who we are, that I and his other lovers are willing to share him. If it’s a lifestyle that’s not for you then fine. But in my opinion, people like you, who protest so loudly how others live their lives do so simply out of jealousy or out of a strange belief that people finding happiness in a way other than how they believe it should be found somehow robs them of their own. If that’s the case, can you truly claim to be happy with your choices in the first place?”



* RevengeByProxy: One of Tsume's detractors who tried to overthrow her as Alpha of the Inuzuka clan (only to get [[CurbStompBattle completely crushed]]) deliberately baits her son Kiba into challenging him then beating the hell out of him. It almost works, since an Inuzuka can't challenge anyone they beat previously, until ''Naruto'' [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown challenges him]].



* SatelliteLoveInterest: Firmly averted. All of Naruto's lovers might be working towards his goal of world peace but they also have their own lives and interests such as Tifa who runs her own bar.



* ShipperOnDeck: Ino is the most proactive in getting Naruto to take more lovers, such as suggesting Hinata as a lover, deliberately blue-balling Naruto to make him more likely to sleep with Temari, and setting things up so Naruto and Kushina become sexually interested in each other.

* AdaptationNameChange: Some characters, such as the Tailed Beasts, have different names than canon due to being named before their canon names were revealed. For example, the Nibi states her name is Yoruichi rather than Matatabi though it's later changed to Yoruichi being the name she chose for herself. Similarly, the Kyuubi's name is changed to Kiyomi because she felt Kurama was too masculine.
* ArmorPiercingResponse: When Naruto is trying to explain to his mother why the Kyuubi should be forgiven, Kushina is furious over the idea given what the Kyuubi did, only for Naruto to retort that she'd been a prisoner for nearly a century for something she had no control over and after finally getting free, the first thing the Kyuubi saw was Naruto's parents trying to re-imprison her.



* BackFromTheDead: Several women, including Kushina, Karura, [[GenderFlip Haku]], and Mito.



* BrokenPedestal:
** This also occurs between [[NotQuiteDead Kushina]] and [[PosthumousCharacter Minato]]. After she and Naruto are accidentally sent to the past, Kushina admitted to herself that she could accept Minato's refusal to attempt to SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong after realizing Naruto was right and they couldn't predict what, if any, affect it'd have on the future. What she couldn't forgive though, was that Minato erased his own knowledge that eventually his wife would die and he'd make their son into a jinchuuriki. In her mind, it showed Minato was willing to make horrible sacrifices but but did so in a way he wouldn't have to live with himself for making them.
** Much later, Naruto admits that while Minato was a great Hokage, he was a terrible husband and father, having chosen the village over his family. [[spoiler:This later causes Naruto to decline Tsunade's offer of the job as he would someday have to choose between his village and his family.]]
** Yugito is crushed to hear the Raikage claim that she and the Nibi are interchangeable. It devastates her further when she recalls that years earlier she'd bragged to Naruto how Kumo treated their jinchuuriki far better than the other villages. In the end, Kumo still saw them as jinchuuriki first and people second.
** Hinata is described by Tsume as "looking like she just got sucker-punched and is trying to figure out why" when she learns that not only is Hanabi being trained specifically to defeat her, but she never needed to prove herself against her sister. As the firstborn of the Clan Head, in order to become the true heir all she'd have to do is declare her intention to do so.
** After learning Suzume set her up as bait for someone she thought was a serial rapist who brainwashed his victims, Moegi is furious with her former sensei for encouraging her feelings for Naruto.

Lastly, while Naruto and his family discover a great deal about the jutsu, there's still occasioinal surprises that they have to test extensively to understand what happened and why.

* SafeSaneAndConsensual: That Haruka's first owner didn't follow this practice causes her a lot of trouble down the road. When the idea of Naruto becoming her newest owner comes up, he admits that she needs far more abuse than he's remotely comfortable with and ends up giving her to Anko. Anko herself engineers a situation that's as extreme as she can safely create just to make sure Haruka isn't so broken that she won't use the safeword she's given.


Added DiffLines:

* WartsAndAll: Tsunade spent her whole life believing her grandmother was a ProperLady, only to learn the hard way that Mito was a HardDrinkingPartyGirl who only acted otherwise to get the council off her back. They eventually reconcile.

* Rhetorical Question Blunder: After the [[EldritchAbomination Bijuu]] are given human forms, [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Kukaku]] (the Yonbi) goes out of her way to mock [[Manga/AhMyGoddess Urd]] (the new Hachibi born from its severed tentacle) whom she doesn't think is a real bijuu. At one point Kukaku asks Naruto whether he'd rather have "one of the bijuu created by the Rikudo Sennin himself or a second-rate knockoff" like Urd. Naruto responds that given their respective personalities, he likes Urd much more than Kukaku. [[BreakTheHaughty Kukaku doesn’t take it well.]]

Sounds like a typical HaremGenre Manga/{{Naruto}} fanfic, does it? Well, it is… at first. After the dozen or so chapters, however, the main story kicks in, taking place at the beginning of Shippuden. Naruto’s (ever-expanding) harem is christened as The Family, who go from being love interests into a full-blown [[BalancedHarem balanced]] BattleHarem, doing whatever they can to help Naruto achieve his mentor Jiraiya’s wish for peace in the shinobi world.

Standing the blond walked towards his window to look out over Konoha. Finally, after thinking for several minutes he said, “During my travels with Pervy Sage, he told me that he dreamed of ending the hatred that was spreading throughout the Shinobi World, I suppose that’s what I plan to do.”

Naruto is given a scroll containing the secrets of making women fall for him, a scroll he uses at first on the women around him but soon on the shinobi world as a whole, giving birth to the Ero-ninja.

Has a Wiki found [[https://eroninja.fandom.com/wiki/Eroninja_Wiki here]].

----
!!This fanfic provides examples of:
* AscendedExtra: Many, many characters both male and female. Komachi in particular is PromotedToLoveInterest even though she’s never officially appeared in the manga or anime, only in two Naruto video games.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Mild-mannered Shizune starts developing poisons after Naruto and Tsunade encourage her to follow her passion instead of trying to be a copy of her teacher. Tsunade is later disturbed by just how lethal some of Shizune's poisons are.
* BlessedWithSuck: [[Videogame/FinalFantasyVIII Quistis]] in ''[[http://ficwad.com/story/239863 Eroninja]]'' has a kekkei genkai much like the Sharingan in that it allows her to learn any jutsu. The problem is that she has to be hit by said jutsu first.
* ChekhovsSkill: Yukata makes a puppet that she uses as a sex toy. Her spending months of using it gives her such fine control that during the puppet user tournament, she displays the ability to use her puppet to control another puppet, something previously thought impossible.
* ConvenientComa: Tayuya after her fight with Shikamaru and Temari. She lays forgotten by the world (except for frequent visits by Ino) for three years before waking up due to Kiyomi’s mass healing pulse.
** Inverted with the original body the Kyuubi possesses. The original host was brain-dead and was written off as likely never to awaken before “awakening” after being bodyjacked by the Kyuubi.
* ConservationOfNinjutsu: Done almost literally by Nagato. Using more efficient chakra receivers and a mind-controlled Shukaku, he invades Konoha with 200 Paths of Pain. However, despite having the chakra to power them all, the bodies are lower quality and Nagato can only split his attention so many ways. So instead of six invaders [[OneManArmy each easily kage level]], it becomes more a battalion of elite jounin. It becomes one of the main reasons for his eventual defeat; one of those bodies would eventually become Sage, the resurrected corpse of the Animal Path pulling a HeelFaceTurn and joining the Family.
* Crossover: Many, though they are woven into the story and are a part of the Naruto universe rather than it being a direct crossover. Most characters from these crossovers usually end up joining the Family, or become the villain in a respective arc. Including, but not limited to:
** Manga/{{Bleach}}
** Manga/{{Sekirei}}
** Franchise/FinalFantasy
** VideoGame/StreetFighter
** Manga/FairyTale
** Manga/AhMyGoddess
** VideoGame/DeadOrAlive
* {{Cult}}: The Descendants Of The Moon, a BreedingCult founded by [[spoiler:Kurozetsu]] to revive his mother [[spoiler:Kaguya Ōtsutsuki]]. Their interests also include brainwashing, destroying ancient artifacts and various other depravities.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Naruto runs into an unexpected snag while seducing Anko when she actually recognizes the jutsu he's using and promptly ties him up and drags him before Tsunade (who is by this point in on his plans) as an attempted rapist.
** After things are explained to Anko, she's used as a willing test subject for how long the jutsu's effects last if the user and subject don't have sex. While she initially shows increasing resistance to the jutsu, eventually she snaps and becomes crazed in her need to have sex with Naruto, scaring him witless.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Furofuki plans to break Tsunade, destroy Konoha, make Naruto her sex slave, and enslave the world as [[AGodAmI god]]. Her reasoning is explained as jealousy that Tsunade was more skilled than her and that Dan chose Tsunade over her. She also blames Tsunade for [[NeverMyFault Dan dying in the ambush Furofuki set up to have Tsunade killed]].
* DisappointedInYou: After Yuugao almost kills Suzume for poisoning Naruto', Naruto tells her he's disappointed in her. It’s not meant to be particularly hammering, but Suzume notes nearly drives the Anbu captain to tears.
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: Jiraiya has more information on Pain (due to Konan pseudo-defecting) and figures out where the real Nagato is much faster. He destroys ''six'' of Pain's bodies and very likely would have killed Nagato as well if not for [[spoiler: Tobi warping himself and Nagato away]]. Even better, his [[DeadMansSwitch death activates a scroll he hid away earlier]], releasing Itachi's Amaterasu that he'd sealed away years ago, burning down Pain's base in Ame.
* EnemyMine: Danzou and Joseki work together to destroy the Suna/Konoha alliance, viewing it as weakening their villages in the long run. Also, if they can instigate a war between the two, they'll have a chance to try and kill each other for their actions in previous wars.
* ExactWords: Kyuubi shares that any of Naruto's lovers who are past their physical prime will be (over time) reverted back to it. This becomes noteworthy when some, like Tsume and Shizune, are getting younger, Tsunade is getting older because she'd previously been rejuvenated to eighteen.
* FightsLikeANormal: Miya taught herself to fight without using any chakra at all. This is because the man she wants to kill (Kisame) is capable of absorbing chakra and using it to heal himself, making chakra usage counterproductive.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Mentioned time and again that (almost) every faction is seeking to do what they think is right; whether it be for their family, their village/country, or the world as a whole. Shizune sums it up perfectly when discussing with Tsunade some of the morally shady things they've done compared to the morally shady things others have done.
* HeelFaceTurn: A lot, mainly the female characters who are SparedByTheAdaption, but the occasional male is given one as well.
* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: In-Universe. Fuuka, Naruto’s distant ancestor, has a few legends based around her time as a revenant, such as a wicked pirate who devoured the souls of her entire crew. In reality, she was still an AntiHero at the time and insisted on only attacking fellow pirates. Her crew mutinied and tried to kill her, causing her to kill them in response.
* IJustWantToBeLoved: Due to her [[IJustWantToBeBadass dream]], Tenten has a hard time understanding that Tsunade would want a romantic (and sexual) relationship with Naruto, citing that Tsunade is a LivingLegend whom Naruto should worship. Tsunade (still emotionally scarred over the death of Dan) retorts that she's been worshiped for decades, but being loved is something far more important and rare.
* JerkassRealization: While escorting a caravan to Suna, Naruto and Samui run into one of Samui's ex-boyfriends. Given that Samui is using a specialized Henge [[DCupDistress to appear to have gotten breast reduction surgery]], her ex remarks to his friends about how Samui used to have "tits so big, they should have qualified as national treasures." Naruto, who has no idea Samui didn't get surgery, pulls him aside and tells Samui's ex that it's people like him that made such a beautiful woman so insecure she got plastic surgery to change her looks. Samui's ex-boyfriend buys her a drink and sincerely apologizes for his comments.
* MoralEventHorizon: Sasuke is finally considered beyond redemption by Naruto when he tries to kill [[spoiler:his own mother]] for having informed Konoha of the Uchiha clan's coup. After saving [[spoiler:Mikoto]], Naruto stops trying to bring Sasuke back to Konoha and starts trying to kill him.
** Other Konoha shinobi consider Sasuke beyond redemption when, during a plot to break out several high security prisoners, Sasuke has [[spoiler:Iruka]] killed, mostly because while every other death is to insure the plan's success, [[spoiler:Iruka's]] was only because Sasuke knew it would hurt Naruto.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Kurotsuchi was tasked with killing D (an enhanced shadow clone of Naruto's) because he was inadvertently ruining Iwa's plans to take over Fang country and Claw country. Unfortunately for her, she learns he's not taking advantage of the situation like she'd hoped but is just an honestly nice man. Furthermore, she ends up InLoveWithTheMark and he easily accepts his death. As a result, she's haunted for months afterwards, unable to sleep and freezing up any time she might have to take a life.
* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: Downplayed where, after learning the full truth of what happened the night of his birth, Naruto agrees that Minato was a great hokage who sacrificed everything, including his family, for the sake of the village. But that same act marked him as a horrendous husband and father.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Tier Harribel]] the Gobi deeply values her subordinates and is generally a fairly peaceful person, so it shows how deeply she cares for Manga/{{Naruto}} that when Apacci threatens him (thinking he'd somehow subverted Harribel into sleeping with him), Harribel warns all three that if they do anything to harm Naruto, her retribution will be swift and terrible.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Deliberately averted where Naruto simply can't do everything despite being stronger than everyone else in his Family/harem. [[WordOfGod The author mentions that he never liked how more characters became irrelevant as the series went on until it was eventually just Naruto and Sasuke who mattered]]. Thus, not only is the overall gap in power smaller, but sometimes someone else is better suited to a given task or mission due to experience, specialty, or personality.
** Until her CharacterDevelopment, Shizune felt overshadowed as most people only ever saw her as "Tsunade's apprentice", such as when Ibiki asks her to verify a coroner's report, citing that they were relatively sure but thought it'd be best to have "one of Tsunade's apprentices" double-check. Once encouraged to forge her own path, Shizune shows an aptitude for poisons that surpasses even Sasori.
* PrecisionFStrike: Hinata gives her first curse (outside of having sex) when her father publicly announces that she's accepted a marriage proposal to a member of a much lower house.
--> "The hell I did!"
* RealityEnsues:
** Naruto and his lovers learn the hard way that Shadow Clones ''can't'' be [[PowerPerversionPotential used for sex]]. After all, sex is a physically demanding (and often high impact) activity and Shadow Clones dispel if they take any damage.
** Rin and Kin both learn that just because Kiri's civil war is over and the new Mizukage has not one but two kekkei genkai doesn't mean the prejudice against such has dissolved or that everyone's happy with the new regime.
** PossessionImpliesMastery is averted with the Temptations Touch jutsu. Even though Kanji deciphered the scroll that contained it and utilized it for several years, he still doesn't know everything about it so when further changes to Naruto's chakra occurs, Naruto and his lovers have to spend several months trying to figure out both what changed and why.
** Naruto's false humble beginnings[[note]] supposedly being a no-name orphan getting by on pure guts and hard work when he's actually the son of the Fourth Hokage and has the Kyuubi's power[[/note]] has caused resentment in other actual underdogs like Rock Lee. Even though he knows Naruto didn't have anything to do with it, Lee feels like people were manipulated into rooting for an apparent underdog who actually had the deck stacked in his favor.
** World peace is ludicrously difficult to achieve even if everyone arguably wants it. Old grudges need to be settled in a way that doesn't perpetuate the CycleOfRevenge, large alliances make other nations nervous, and many just see the alliance as a way to strengthen themselves for the inevitable next war.
** Konan's plan to rebrand the Akatsuki as a neutral police force meets with heavy resistance from everyone but Naruto's group as no one believes she's sincere and they're all aware that a large group of S Rank ninja can basically do whatever they want. Some consider them more dangerous than the previous Akatsuki since they have less defined goals and are willing to move in larger groups than just a single pair.
* RecruitingTheCriminal: Yuugao recruits Fuuka's help in figuring out a serial killer due to the latter's several decades of experience as a serial killer in order to prolong her lifespan. Fuuka manages to figure out both the order of the killings and why they were killed in said order (namely the killer was seducing her targets and was building up confidence in her looks/abilities).
* RefugeInAudacity: To cover up her new body's miraculous recovery, the Kyuubi-turned-Kiyomi releases a pulse of healing chakra that fully heals everyone in the village. A single long-term coma patient suddenly recovering would raise several eyebrows, but with hundreds of patients recovering from illnesses, lost limbs, and more, she's not even a blip on the radar.
* Rhetorical Question Blunder: After the [[EldritchAbomination Bijuu]] are given human forms, [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Kukaku]] (the Yonbi) goes out of her way to mock [[Manga/AhMyGoddess Urd]] (the new Hachibi born from its severed tentacle) whom she doesn't think is a real bijuu. At one point Kukaku asks Naruto whether he'd rather have "one of the bijuu created by the Rikudo Sennin himself or a second-rate knockoff" like Urd. Naruto responds that given their respective personalities, he likes Urd much more than Kukaku. [[BreakTheHaughty Kukaku doesn’t take it well.]]
* RightForTheWrongReasons: When Naruto goes AWOL to save a falsely-accused Gaara from execution in Eroninja, the Royal Guard presiding over the execution demands Temari write up a list of everyone who might aid Naruto. Once Temari hands back a page completely full of names, the Royal Guard assumes Temari made most of them up to make them waste time checking each name on the list. In reality, every person (male and female) named on that list would aid Naruto (most of them unconditionally), but Temari knows Naruto is smart enough to avoid any of his known allies and would thus avoid everyone on that list.
* SanityHasAdvantages: Hinamori fails in her attempt to make Naruto and Kiyomi/Kyuubi kill each other because she's too insane to realize that even under an illusion making her think Naruto wanted her dead, Kiyomi would refuse to fight him. Furthermore, while Naruto sees and hears a taunting Sasuke instead of Kiyomi, he still notices something is wrong when "Sasuke" only flees and never attacks.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: Could fill a whole page’s worth.
* StayInTheKitchen: Some of the kunoichi bitterly reflect that the reserve forces are jokingly called the "United Mom Alliance" because when a kunoichi gets pregnant (especially with a shinobi), she's expected to retire so her child doesn't lose both parents to missions gone bad. Though at least some try to justify this that one parent should retire, and the mother is going to be out of action for months anyway so it's more logical for her to retire than the father.
* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Naruto and his lovers work tirelessly towards world peace. However, they all realize that if the world found out a secret group manipulated everyone towards peace, many would view it as justification to go to war again. As such, it's been agreed that even after peace is achieved, they can never claim any credit.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Ino gives one to [[FishOutOfTemporalWater Toka]] after the latter continuously objects to shows of affection.
-->'''Ino''': "You are miserable and insist everyone be equally as miserable as you. That is why you refuse to move out. You want to force us all to comply with your ideas of how we should conduct ourselves. I’m simply not going to play along.”
-->'''Toka''': “So instead you decide to act like a whore, and prostrate yourself before this man who barely values you since he’s taken so many lovers and all because you lack the self-esteem to stand on your own."
-->'''Ino''': “Look here lady! This is our house, not yours. And you better get used to the idea because sooner or later we’re not going to need to hide our feelings for Naruto. Eventually Kurenai will move out, or… When that happens you can be as unhappy as you want and pout in the corner, but we’re going to act like the family that we are. Oh, and just so you know. He values me plenty. Thanks to his love and encouragement, I went from an underfed and weak kunoichi to the head of my clan. It is because we are so secure in who we are, that I and his other lovers are willing to share him. If it’s a lifestyle that’s not for you then fine. But in my opinion, people like you, who protest so loudly how others live their lives do so simply out of jealousy or out of a strange belief that people finding happiness in a way other than how they believe it should be found somehow robs them of their own. If that’s the case, can you truly claim to be happy with your choices in the first place?”
* UnderestimatingBadassery: A common theme with the newly human Biju is to underestimate everyone else. This includes Nel/Sanbi who was turned into a child, Urd who was born from a fragment of the Hachibi, and their human opponents as well. They quickly learn that despite their appearance and origin respectively, Nel and Urd ''are'' Biju and that some humans can hold their own against a Biju, even if they can't win.
* WeWantOurJerkBack: Shikamaru used to hate how "troublesome" his mother was but ends up longing for the days his mother was a "troublesome woman" after months of depression due to [[spoiler:her husband dying during Pain's attack]]. He ends up asking Naruto to get her involved in his group, but very much does not want to know what it entails even though he's already aware[[note]]Hardly surprising consider few people want to hear about their parent's sex life[[/note]].
* WhatTheHellHero: Naruto and Kushina trade these when they're sent to the past. Kushina suggests Naruto inform Minato about the future so they don't die and Naruto can grow up with his parents. When Naruto insists they can't as it's impossible to tell whether they can even change time and that if they succeed, the results would be unpredictable, Kushina angrily accuses him of sacrificing his parents to protect his harem lifestyle. Naruto retorts that she's asking him to sacrifice himself and his family for the sake of her and Minato. If Naruto was raised with his parents, he'd likely be a completely different person than he is now.
* WorthyOpponent: [[spoiler: Kisame, defeated and missing an arm after a fair and chakra-less sword fight against Miya, congratulates her in defeating him one-on-one and in getting over her desire for revenge against him for killing her squad which had previously consumed her. Miya offers him a chance at redemption, but Kisame instead opts to FaceDeathWithDignity.]]
