7!Jiraiya & Tsunade

9[[folder:Jiraiya & Tsunade Senju]]
10
11!!Jiraiya & Tsunade Senju
12
13Two of the three Legendary Sannin of Konoha, and Naruto's adoptive parents. After circumstances force them to live under the same roof and raise Naruto together, the two eventually get married and build a new life together.
14
15----
16
17* AdaptationalBadass: Both of them eventually become much stronger than in canon, with Jiraiya fully mastering his Toad Sage Mode, and Tsunade gaining one of her own with the help of her slugs. [[spoiler: Tsunade also gains one Rinnegan eye, with all the powers it entails, though she gets rid of it by the end of the Fourth Ninja War]].
18* AdaptationalJobChange: Jiraiya is the one who becomes Fifth Hokage instead of Tsunade, who takes to work in Konoha's hospital as a medic.
19* AdaptationNameChange: Tsunade uses her grandfather's surname as opposed to having OnlyOneName. Jiraiya takes it too [[TookTheWifesName once the two get married]].
20* AffectionateNickname: Jiraiya usually refers to Tsunade as "Hime". Naruto would later pick up this habit when he starts dating Hinata.
21* BattleCouple: The story hasn't had many chances to see them fight together, but when they do, they ''kick ass'' for sure.
22* BoyfriendBlockingDad: During Kurenai and Asuma's wedding, Jiraiya claims he passed a law banning anyone from dating the Hokage's daughter until she's 30. His expression afterwards make it clear he's only ''half''-joking about it.
23* ChildrenRaiseYou: Having to raise Naruto from infancy brings out the best in both of them, to the point that they eventually get married and have children of their own.
24* CombatMedic: As per canon, Tsunade is this should the situation require it.
25* DCupDistress: At one point, Tsunade complains about having to wear her flak jacket open, since after so many years they still don't make them for women of her size.
26* FrontlineGeneral: Jiraiya personally leads the raid on Root headquarters when Danzo is officially declared a traitor.
27* HappilyMarried: Eventually they become this, despite some minor issues.
28* LastOfHisKind: Tsunade was the only known remaining member of the Senju bloodline, at least until the twins were born in Chapter 5.
29* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: Their relationship starts this way off this way during the first years, but it doesn't take long for them to become an ''actual'' married couple.
30* MaamShock: Tsunade is less than pleased with Shizune teasingly calling her grandma in reference to Shiro. The narration notes that if anyone other than Shizune called her that, she'd break every bone in their body.
31-->'''Tsunade:''' Shizune, what did we say about the G-word?
32* MamaBear[=/=]PapaWolf: Threaten any of their children, adoptive or biological, and you're in for a world of pain.
33* MyNameIsInigoMontoya: During the climax of the Fourth War, Tsunade introduces herself this way to [[spoiler:Madara Uchiha]]:
34-->"[[IAmXSonOfY My name is Tsunade Senju, and I am Hashirama Senju's granddaughter!]] And just like my grandfather did in the past, so shall I protect both my loved ones and Konoha from scum like you!"
35* OlderThanTheyLook: Tsunade forces Jiraiya to use her age hiding technique in the epilogue so that her own youthful appearance wouldn't stand out as much.
36* PlatonicCoParenting: Initially, they raise Naruto together without actually being in a relationship, though this changes after a few years of living under the same roof and they become a couple.
37* RetiredBadass: Tsunade never officially returns to active duty as a ninja, preferring to focus on her medical career. Of course, this doesn't keep her from becoming even more powerful than her canon counterpart.
38* SecondLove: Jiraiya is this to Tsunade, once she finally gets over grieving Dan's death.
39* SparedByTheAdaptation: Unlike canon, Jiraiya survives long past his battle against Pain, until the end of the story.
40* StrongGirlSmartGuy: Downplayed example. Jiraiya's far from a weakling, and Tsunade's far from unintelligent, but Jiraiya is somebody specialized in ninjutsu, seals, spying and intelligence gathering, while Tsunade is better known for her SuperStrength, despite also being a prodigial medic.
41* SuperMode: Both of them have access to Sage Mode, though Tsunade achieves hers later and with the slugs instead of the toads like Jiraiya.
42* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Jiraiya's decision to tell Naruto about his heritage as the son of the Fourth Hokage (and thus Naruto's constant claims how he'll become Hokage to follow in his footsteps) [[spoiler:ends up convincing Fugaku that there is a conspiracy at play to instill Naruto as Hokage when he's old enough in order to continue the MasterApprenticeChain and make sure that only those instilled with the Senju's ideals are in power. While that may not have caused the Uchiha Insurrection, it certainly made it all but impossible for Hiruzen to talk Fugaku down peacefully once it started.]]
43* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Well, wife in this case, but when Jiraiya is trapped by Pain's giant meteor, what does Tsunade do? ''Jump and smash the meteor'' herself to rescue her husband, and she would have definitely gone after the culprit had Naruto not beaten her to the punch.
44* YankTheDogsChain: PlayedForLaughs with Tsunade; after winning a ton of money after betting on Naruto, she lost it all after Gaara beat him.
45* YouAreInCommandNow: Much to his displeasure, Jiraiya is forced to take the Hokage's seat after Hiruzen's retirement, and he mostly does it so Danzo cannot seize it.
46[[/folder]]
47
48!Assault Squad/Team Kurenai
49
50[[folder:Naruto Uzumaki]]
51!!Naruto Uzumaki
52
53The main protagonist, biological son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, adoptive son of Jiraiya and Tsunade, and Kurama's jinchūriki. His dream is to become Hokage one day.
54----
55
56* AbledInTheAdaptation: Never loses his right arm, nor does he need a prosthetic replacement.
57* ABNegative: Naruto is revealed to be a universal chakra donor during the Chunin Exam Finals when he offers to transfer some to Hinata before their match. This ends up being a plot point on two separate occasions: [[spoiler:saving Gaara's life with a transfusion after Shukaku is extracted and given his Sage Mode trainees their first taste of nature energy without needing to use the special oil at Mount Myoboku.]]
58* AdaptationalBadass: He learns several of his signature jutsu, like the Shadow Clones and the Rasengan, and attains Sage Mode much earlier than in canon. He also receives additional training in kenjutsu and fuinjutsu.
59* AdaptationalDeviation: [[spoiler:How he got his Six Paths Sage Mode here differs from canon. Instead of simply getting it from Hagoromo, gaining chakra from the other Tailed Beasts while simultaneously being Kurama's jinchūriki resulted in the creating Six Paths chakra]].
60* AdaptationalIntelligence: Downplayed. He's more studious and less prone to get distracted during his days in the ninja academy, but he's by no means smarter than he was in canon.
61* AdaptationalJobChange: The epilogue mentions that he was the Jonin-sensei to Mirai, Shizuka, and Seiichi prior to becoming Hokage.
62* AllYourPowersCombined: In Chapter 126, he receives [[spoiler:part of the chakra from the tailed beasts captured by Akatsuki, gaining access to their powers and abilities]].
63* AlmightyJanitor: Averted. In a stark contrast to his canon counterpart, Naruto goes up in rank as the story progresses.
64* BattleCouple: Eventually, with Hinata. Being on the same team, they have plenty of opportunities to fight side by side.
65* BigBrotherInstinct: To Kaida and Hagane. Orochimaru exploits this by kidnapping them during his invasion so [[TrapIsTheOnlyOption he'll willingly run into an obvious trap]].
66* BlowYouAway: His main elemental affinity is Wind Release.
67* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:He ends up being placed under Kotoamatsukami by Obito during the climax of the Senju Twin Retrieval arc so he'll peacefully turn himself over to Akatsuki, leading Sasuke to have to BeatTheCurseOutOfHim]].
68* ButForMeItWasTuesday: He doesn't even recognize [[spoiler:the Sound Trio]] when they team up in the Search for Roshi arc despite having fought them twice in the past.
69* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Hinata, as the two become friends shortly before enrolling in the ninja academy.
70* ChildhoodFriends: He befriends the Sand Siblings when Jiraiya takes him along on a diplomatic mission to Suna. He's very happy to see all of them again come the Chunin Exams.
71* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Naruto threatens to turn himself over to Akatsuki and let Kurama be sealed in the Gedo Mazo statue (which he considers to be a FateWorseThanDeath) if he doesn't [[spoiler:supply the necessary chakra to save Gaara's life with a transfusion]]. Naruto later admits that he was bluffing.
72* FamedInStory: [[spoiler:It seems he comes well known after the Fourth War if Sarada's thoughts are accurate]].
73* FirstFriend: A mutual example with Hinata. His friendship gives her [[GrewASpine a much needed confincence boost]] that helps her keep her birthright as heiress to the Hyuga clan.
74* FriendlyRivalry: While the two remain just as competitive, his relationship with Sasuke is a lot healthier than their canon counterparts.
75* HappilyAdopted: He is shown to be very happy as Jiraiya and Tsunade's son. The closest he gets to AdoptionAngst is when he protests that Tsunade should give the First Hokage's necklace to one of her biological children, only for Tsunade to insist that Naruto is just as much her son as they are.
76* HeroesPreferSwords: [[LaserBlade A chakra blade]], in his case. [[DualWielding Two of them]], even.
77* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:Suffers one during the Fourth War, when the Ten-Tails sucks out Chomei and Gyuki out of Fu and Killer B, leaving them in a near-death state. He briefly loses his will to fight, thinking that he failed everyone, until Hinata [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan snaps him out of it]].]]
78* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Downplayed. While it didn't cost him victory, teaching Hinata and Sakura Tsunade's enhanced strength technique back when they were all in the academy made his fights against them in the Chunin Exams that much harder.
79* HoldingHands: With Hinata, during the climax of the final battle to combine their chakras [[spoiler:and create the Golden Avatar of Kalika]].
80* LastOfHisKind: [[spoiler:After Fu and Killer B have their Tailed Beasts drained in chapter 129, he becomes the only remaining (current) jinchūriki. He loses this status after the final battle when Fu, Killer B, and a revived Yugito chose to rebond with their Tailed Beasts.]]
81* LikeBrotherAndSister: He comes to view Fu as a sister due to their shared jinchūriki status.
82* MagicKnight: While like in canon Naruto specializes in ninjutsu, he picks up kenjutsu post TimeSkip.
83* NewAbilityAddiction: Getting Sage Mode a lot sooner than in canon results in him using it in just about every battle. Eventually, his entire fighting style starts to revolve around it and his other skills (particularly his situational awareness) begin to atrophy, which becomes a problem when Akatsuki finds a way to prevent him from gathering the necessary nature energy to trigger it (something that they were only able to [[TaughtByExperience figure out]] ''because'' he used it so much).
84* NotQuiteFlight: His Riding the Hurricane jutsu was developed for this purpose, but it is nowhere near as graceful or versatile as Fu or [[spoiler:the Hyuga sisters']] true flight.
85* ObliviousToLove: Downplayed. He figures out his own feelings for Hinata a lot sooner than his canon counterpart due to having grown up in a far more emotionally healthy environment, but it still takes a third party pointing it out for him to realize that she feels the same way. He also fails to pick up on Kiba and Tamaki's BelligerentSexualTension.
86* OneDegreeOfSeparation: When Naruto becomes a jonin instructor as an adult, all three of his students are family members of people he already has a connection to (his sister, his teacher, and his teammate)
87* OutOfFocus: He takes a backseat during the Yugito Nii arc (where the Medical Squad is on focus), being busy with the reconstruction of Takigakure. The first part of the Fourth Ninja War also has him absent from the front lines due to undergoing his jinchūriki training with Fu and Killer B, with several chapters where he doesn't even appear.
88* PursuingParentalPerils: His primary motivation for becoming Hokage is to follow in his late biological father's footsteps.
89* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: He can freely come and go from the Hyuga Clan compound as he pleases despite the fact that they'd normally never let someone like him get anywhere near the front gates. Notably, it has nothing to do with the fact that he's Hinata's best friend, but rather the fact that Tsunade saved Hikari's life.
90* SuperEmpowering: [[spoiler: His nature as a universal chakra donor also enables him to transfer nature chakra to others in a controlled fashion, giving him a way to teach others to become Sages. Several people, including Shizune, Asuma, Karin and the Sand Siblings take him up on his training... though he does take a bit too much pleasure in whacking them on the head.]]
91* SuperMode: Like in canon, he gains access to Sage Mode and Kurama's chakra cloak. [[spoiler:He eventually receives part of the Tailed Beast's chakra, giving him access to the Six Paths' Chakra to make them even stronger]].
92* TellMeAboutMyFather: Played with. He doesn't really bother asking about his biological parents since Jiraiya and Tsunade already freely told him everything that they knew about them, but a talk with Karin does get him to inquire about the Uzumaki clan.
93* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Even without the emotional significance of Teuchi being the first adult to show him kindness, [[InSpiteOfANail Ichiraku Ramen is still Naruto's favorite restaurant]].
94* UnbrokenVigil: [[spoiler:He spends two days refusing to leave Hagane's side after he ends up comatose in the hospital before Tsunade tells him to stop blaming himself and forces him to go visit Hinata instead.]]
95* WarriorPrince: Jiraiya was appointed Hokage while he was still in the academy, which roughly makes him royalty. He also grew up aware of his biological heritage as Minato's son.
96* YouAreInCommandNow: Kurenai appointed him as the head of the Assault Squad while she was on maternity leave, and later mentioned during her wedding reception that she was planning on turning over the role to him permanently.
97* YoungerMentorOlderDisciple: [[spoiler:Out of the eleven people he mentors in Sage Mode over the course of the story, seven of them (Asuma, Rin, Shizune, Shisui, Temari, Kankuro, and Karin) are older than him, and four of those seven are at least a decade older.]]

99
100[[folder:Hinata Hyuga]]
101!!Hinata Hyuga
102
103Eldest daughter of Hiashi and Hikari Hyuga, and heiress apparent of the Hyuga Clan.
104----
105
106* AdaptationalBadass: Aside from receiving additional training in the ninja academy, including better chakra control and elemental ninjutsu, she receives additional training in taijutsu from Tsunade, as well as Rock Lee and Maito Gai. [[spoiler:Later in the story, she receives the Tenseigan from Hamura Otsutsuki himself, gaining several new abilities including PsychicPowers and the Avatar of Kalika (counterpart of the Susanoo)]].
107* AffectionateNickname: Naruto starts calling her "Hime" after they start dating, a trait he picked up from Jiraiya.
108* AscendedExtra: Being Naruto's teammate, ChildhoodFriend and (eventually) LoveInterest, she becomes a major protagonist here.
109* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: [[spoiler:Her mother steps down and appoints her as clan head after she obtains the Tenseigan and becomes the most powerful Hyuga alive.]]
110* BattleCouple: She often fights alongside Naruto, both before and after they become a couple.
111* BewareTheNiceOnes: Make no mistake: she's as sweet and gentle as in canon, but if you threaten her loved ones, you'll be lucky if you make it out alive. Case in point: [[spoiler:she's the only character in the story with ''multiple'' Akatsuki kills under her belt.]]
112* ChildhoodFriendRomance: She and Naruto grow up as best friends thanks to Shizune, and they later start dating after being promoted to Chunin.
113* CombatMedic: She's TheMedic of the Assault Squad, having taken a medical course under Tsunade as an elective in the academy (she figured that there are obvious advantages to a medic with x-ray vision).
114* ElementalPunch: Her signature technique is a Lightning Release variation of the Gentle Fist. Her development of if is actually the first sign of the [[ScrewDestiny primary theme]] of her character arc since she's the first Hyuga to think to deviate from the norm.
115* FirstFriend: A mutual example with Naruto. Her friendship with him curbs his attention seeking habits and leaves him as a much better student in the academy (in addition to making him seem less annoying to their classmates).
116* {{Flight}}: [[spoiler:After she awakens the Tenseigan, she discovers that she can use the telekinetic abilities it grants her to fly, though she at first needs some instruction from Fu, who is a more experienced flyer]].
117* ForgotICouldFly: After lamenting that she couldn't watch Naruto's match in the Chunin Exam finals because she was in the infirmary, completely forgetting the fact that her Byakugan gives her x-ray vision until her mother reminds her.
118-->'''Hikari:''' [[LoveMakesYouDumb Being lovesick certainly messes with one's mind]].
119* GenerationXerox: Her mother comments during the Chunin Exam finals that she was very similar to her when she was a child; someone whose softness was misinterpreted as weakness and had to fight for the right to be with the man she loved. They even share a lack of respect for tradition, though Hinata is a lot more overt about it.
120* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: [[spoiler:Like in canon, she does it to Naruto after he briefly loses his will to fight during the Fourth War]].
121* GoldenSuperMode: [[spoiler:Her Golden Avatar of Kalika, which changes its color and gains a Kitsune-based armor with Kurama's chakra]].
122* GrewASpine: Naruto's friendship helps her break out of her shell and become a confident LadyOfWar a lot earlier than her canon counterpart.
123* HeirToTheDojo: She retains her birthright as heiress of the Hyuga clan (unlike her canon counterpart, who lost it to her little sister), in part thanks to the fact that Naruto's friendship gave her a confidence boost.
124* KungFuWizard: Her primary fighting style, as she uses both the Gentle Fist and Lighting Release, both independently and together.
125* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Not herself, but [[spoiler:her Avatar of Kalika]] has two additional arms.
126* PantheraAwesome: She has several lion-themed attacks.
127* PowerNullifier: [[spoiler:Her Truth-Seeking Balls can be used to cancel out any chakra based techniques (except for senjutsu). After some time to practice, she's eventually able to destroy fuinjutsu without damaging whatever it is bound to (such as the Caged Bird Seal on the former branch family members or Anko's Cursed Seal of Heaven).]]
128* PowerPalms: Hinata's [[ShockAndAwe Thunder Palms]].
129* RescueRomance: Just like in canon, she falls for Naruto after he protects her from some bullies.
130* ShockAndAwe: Lightning Release is her main elemental affinity. She combines it with Gentle Fist techniques.
131* ShrinkingViolet: Only as a young child. By the time she graduates from the academy, she remains polite and soft-spoken, but not particularly shy.
132* SpinAttack: Her Heavenly Thunderstorm, a Heavenly Spin imbued with Lightning Release chakra.
133* SuperEmpowering: [[spoiler:She transfers half of Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra to Hanabi, which gives her access to all the same powers that she gains.]]
134* SuperMode: [[spoiler:She has both Sage Mode and the Tenseigan's chakra cloak. When she uses both of them at the same time, it helps her Tenseigan fully mature (since it had been stunted from transferring half her power to Hanabi).]]
135* SuperStrength: Naruto teaches her how to perform Tsunade's enhanced strength technique while they're in the academy, though she rarely uses it except to catch her opponents off guard.
136* YoungAndInCharge: [[spoiler:She's appointed as the head of the Hyuga Clan at age sixteen.]]
137[[/folder]]
138
139[[folder:Haku Yuki]]
140!!Haku Yuki
141
142Last known survivor of the Yuki Clan of Kirigakure, and Zabuza's protegé. He enrolled in Konoha's Ninja Academy as part of Zabuza's parole, and eventually became friends with Naruto and Hinata.
143
144----
145
146* AdaptationNameChange: He bears the Yuki clan name as his surname.
147* AdaptationalBadass: Not being killed off at a young age in addition to having multiple mentors and teammates allowed Haku to become a lot more powerful, such as learning [[MasterOfIllusion Genjutsu]] from Kurenai.
148* AdaptationalHeroism: While he [[AntiVillain wasn't actually evil]] in canon, he still served as a StarterVillain along with Zabuza. Here, he gets the chance to make a meaningful life as a ninja of Konoha.
149* AdaptationalNationality: Canon Haku lived in the Land of Water. While this story still has him born there, he mostly grows up in Konoha and is later grated dual citizenship (represented by him wearing two forehead protectors) at the end of the Kirigakure Civil War.
150* AgeLift: Haku in canon was three years older than Naruto. Here they're treated as being the same age.
151* {{Ambadassador}}: Mei appoints him as her official ambassador in Konoha when she becomes Mizukage since his status as a ChildOfTwoWorlds would give him an extra incentive to insure peaceful relations between the two villages.
152* AscendedExtra: Like Hinata, he gets a major role as one of Naruto's teammates, and eventually becomes the LoveInterest of Tenten.
153* CallingParentsByTheirName: He refers to his parental figures by their given names, though he respects them enough to use proper honorifics (-sama for Zabuza, and -san for Hayate and Yūgao).
154* ConflictingLoyalty: As Zabuza's time in Konoha draws to an end in the Kirigakure Civil War arc, he finds himself torn between wanting to go with his master or stay with the friends and loved ones he's made in Konoha. Fortunately, Zabuza makes the choice for him and [[ReleasingFromThePromise frees him from his servitude]] (if in the most {{Jerkass}}ish way possible to preserve his reputation).
155* ConfusionFu: He often mixes his ice with illusionary versions to keep his oppnents guessing until it's too late to fight back.
156* DudeLooksLikeALady: And often gets mistaken by one, so he doesn't get offended by it anymore.
157* FlechetteStorm: One of his preferred methods of attack is conjuring a rain of razor-sharp ice shards.
158* FosterKid: He's placed under Hayate and Yūgao's custody after Zabuza's arrest and the two treat him as if he was their own flesh and blood. It's implied that they may have legally adopted him during the TimeSkip.
159* GiantFlyer: By the TimeSkip, he's learned to create ice birds capable of flight to ride on.
160* HonoraryUncle: [[spoiler:Zabuza and Mei's eldest child calls him "Uncle Haku" in the epilogue.]]
161* AnIcePerson: Being the only known survivor of the Yuki clan, he specializes in Ice Release techniques.
162* ItsPersonal: He had a much greater incentive in aiding Mei's rebellion than the rest of the Konoha 15, given how his clansmen were all victims of Kirigakure's bloodline purges.
163* LastOfHisKind: Just as in canon, he's the only known living member of the Yuki clan after Kirigakure's bloodline purges. [[spoiler:At least until his daughters are born in the epilogue.]]
164* MasterOfIllusion: Kurenai tutors him in using genjutsu, which he often combines with his ice techniques to [[ConfusionFu misdirect his enemies]].
165* NewTransferStudent: He transfers into the Konoha Ninja Academy after the events of [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]] as part of a deal with Jiraiya to earn Zabuza's freedom.
166* NotQuiteFlight: Subverted. Naruto taught him how to perform his Riding the Hurricane jutsu, but he lacks the chakra reserves to keep it active.
167* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: The age gap between him and his foster brother Seiichi is about 15 years.
168* PromotedToLoveInterest: He ends up in a relationship with Tenten at the end of the Chunin Exam arc. Jiraiya is thrilled, since he wants him to [[SuperBreedingProgram pass on his Ice Release to the next generation]].
169* ShootingLessonsFromYourParents: Lampshaded. When he suddenly demonstrates the ability to match Sasuke blow for blow with a sword during the Chunin Exam finals, he points out that all three of his parental figures are swordsmen. It'd be more surprising if they ''hadn't'' taught him anything.
170* SoleSurvivor: Of Kiri's Yuki clan, the carriers of the Ice Release bloodline limit.
171* SparedByTheAdaptation: He lives long past the Wave mission, and in fact has nothing to do with it.
172* TokenMinority: He's the only one of Team Kurenai to be born outside the Land Of Fire, being born in the Land of Water. He shares this distinction with Karin of the Konoha 15.
173[[/folder]]
174
175[[folder:Kurenai Yuhi]]
176!!Kurenai Sarutobi (née Yuhi)
177A jonin who specializes in genjutsu, and leader of the Assault Squad.
178----
179* ActionMom: Unlike in canon, she does not retire from active duty after her daughter Mirai is born.
180* AscendedExtra: As Naruto's jonin sensei, she has a much larger presence in the story than in canon.
181* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: After [[spoiler:Rin returns from among the dead]], she begins to wish the same happened to her former apprentice Yakumo, who'd been presumed dead. And she did get her wish: Yakumo wasn't dead, she'd been taken by Danzo as one of his lackeys.
182* ConfusionFu: She eventually picks up Haku's habit of mixing ninjutsu with genjutsu to confuse her enemies.
183* DishingOutDirt: She has Earth Release affinity, which is noted to be rare in Konoha.
184* DrowningMySorrows: After her first encounter with Yakumo, she was so shocked by the event that she went to the local bar to drink. Thankfully, Shizune found her and snapped her out of it.
185* HappilyMarried: To Asuma, and due to him being SparedByTheAdaptation they actually get to enjoy their marriage.
186* NotQuiteFlight: Naruto teaches her how to perform his Riding the Hurricane jutsu.
187* RedEyesTakeWarning: Inverted. Her red eyes nearly get ''her'' in danger [[spoiler:when she gets mistaken for a member of the Uchiha clan and attacked multiple times during their coup.]]
188* TeamMom:
189[[/folder]]
190
191!Tactical Squad/Team Asuma
192[[folder:Ino Yamanaka]]
193!!Ino Yamanaka
194
195Daughter of Inoichi Yamanaka and heiress to the Yamanaka clan. Her family owns a flower shop.
196----
197* CombatMedic: She took the medical ninjutsu elective in the academy and acts as TheMedic for Tactical Squad.
198* DatingCatwoman: She and Sai were already in a relationship while he was still a part of Root, [[spoiler:and Jiraiya has assigned her to spy on him to gather evidence against Danzo.]]
199* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: Shikamaru mentions at one point that she doesn't like people referring to Sai as her boyfriend while she's in earshot.
200* MakingASplash: She has Water Release affinity, [[spoiler:which comes in handy when she faces off against Sai due to it being able to wash away his ink techniques.]]
201* MySignificanceSenseIsTingling: She as a "Gossip Sense", which allows her to know whenever one of her friends has developed a crush.
202* TheSocialExpert: Offers to coach Sai in actual social skills.
203* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Sakura, like in canon. They eventually reconcile after defeating Sakon and Ukon.
204* YoungAndInCharge: She became the head of the Yamanaka clan before she had even turned seventeen.
205* YouKilledMyFather: With a dash of SinsOfTheFather; her father is killed [[spoiler:during the Uchiha Insurrection]], which causes her to develop a buring hatred for [[spoiler:Sasuke (due to him being one of the few surviving Uchiha and the son of the one who did the deed)]] as well as cause the fallout of her friendship with Sakura.
206[[/folder]]
207
208[[folder:Shikamaru Nara]]
209!!Shikamaru Nara
210
211Son of Shikaku and Yoshino Nara, and heir to the Nara clan. Smart, but lazy and uninterested in fighting.
212----
213* BrilliantButLazy: He's a pretty smart strategist, but rarely puts the effort into fighting.
214* CastingAShadow: Like the rest of his clan, he specializes in shadow manipulation jutsus.
215* DeadpanSnarker: Like in canon, he's got plenty of moments of this. For instance, when Temari comes looking for a rematch, and he manages to convince her to just chill off and watch the clouds with him:
216-->'''Temari''': I hate you.\
217'''Shikamaru''': I'm sure you do.
218* EmbarrassingNickname: Is referred to as "Pinapple Head" due to his hairstyle, though Temari uses it as more of an InsultOfEndearment.
219* LongDistanceRelationship: He starts dating Temari at some point during the TimeSkip, even making reference to the GirlfriendInCanada trope when Sai asks why he and Choji didn't bring dates to Asuma and Kurenai's wedding.
220* PlayingWithFire: He sometimes uses Fire Release jutsu aside from his shadows.
221* RunningAwayToCry: [[spoiler: He witnessed his father being killed by a reanimated Fugaku Uchiha. Though he kept it together until the battle was over, once it was done, he found a space away from the crowd and cried until he ran out of tears.]]
222* StrongGirlSmartGuy: Like in canon, he's the Smart Guy to Temari's Strong Girl.
223* TheStrategist: Usually assumes this role with his teammates, often deciding the best course of action and how to use their abilities to the fullest. [[spoiler:During the final battle, he's the one who directs the actions of the Konoha 15 to power up the Golden Avatar of Kalika while they're fighting Madara's Six Path Perfect Susanoo]].

227[[folder:Choji Akimichi]]
228!!Choji Akimichi
229
230Son of Choza Akimichi, and heir to the Akimichi clan. Shikamaru's closest friend.
231----
232* BerserkButton: As in canon, being called fat.
233* LoveAtFirstPunch: He first develops an interest in Karui after she beats him in the Chunin Exam finals, which makes a great deal of sense in hindsight given his father's comment about the Akimichis being a clan of {{Amazon Chaser}}s.
234* PenPals: He starts up a correspondence with Karui after the Chunin Exams. There is a great deal of ShipTease, though they don't actually become a couple until the eve of the Fourth Ninja War.
235* SizeShifter: He develops a variation of his clan's body expansion techniques to shrink instead, and manages to use this for both combat and stealth.
236* [[ThroughHisStomach Through Her Stomach]]: His first gesture towards Karui after the Chunin exams is giving her a lunch box (actually made by his mother, but he helped make it too).
237* WreathedInFlames: He has Fire Release, and uses it to create a flaming version of his [[RollingAttack Human Bullet Tank]] jutsu in the lead up to the Chunin Exam Finals.
238* YouAreInCommandNow: Inherits the position as the Akimichi Clan's head after his father dies in the Fourth War.

242!!Asuma Sarutobi
243
244Son of the former Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and (eventual) husband of Kurenai Yuhi.
245----
246* BreakingTheCycleOfBadParenting: Downplayed. Hiruzen wasn't a bad parent so much as [[ParentsAsPeople constantly absent due to the various responsibilities he held]], and Asuma mentions during his wedding how he wants to have a better relationship with his own kid once they're born. Given how his appearance in the epilogue has him and Mirai happily sparring together, he seems to have suceeded.
247* HappilyMarried: To Kurenai, and he gets to enjoy it more than in canon.
248* SparedByTheAdaptation: He never faces off against Hidan, and is still alive by the time his daughter is born.
249* SuperMode: Learns [[spoiler:Sage Mode from Naruto]].
250* SwordBeam: When the above mentioned SuperMode is active, he can throw these by swinging his chakra blades.
251* TeamDad: As usual, he has his moments, like when he comforts Shikamaru [[spoiler:after Shikaku is killed in the Fourth Ninja War]].

256[[folder:Shino Aburame]]
257!!Shino Aburame
258----
259* AdaptationalJobChange: Rather than being an Academy teacher like in the manga, he becomes [[spoiler:an ambassador to Takigakure]].
260* {{Ambadassador}}: [[spoiler:He ended up becoming Konoha's official ambassador in Takigakure during the epilogue.]]
261* BigCreepyCrawlies: He can enlarge his kikai beetles to eat their enemies' chakra ([[EatenAlive and them]]), [[GiantFlyer and even use them as aerial mounts]].
262* BigNo: During the Fourth Ninja War he yells out [[spoiler:when Fu gets Chomei sucked out of her by the Ten-Tails and left in a near-death state]].
263* CombatMedic: He took the medical ninjutsu elective in the academy and acts as TheMedic for the Animal Squad.
264* DishingOutDirt: He has Earth Release affinity, though he never actually uses it.
265* KnowWhenToFoldEm: His fight against Gaara in the Chunin Exam preliminaries only lasts for about a minute before he forfeits since he quickly discerned that he had no chance of winning.
266* LongDistanceRelationship: He and Fu start a relationship after the Chunin Exams, though she later moves in to his clan compound after Akatsuki's attack on Takigakure due to Shibuki feeling she'd be safer in Konoha.
267* LoveAtFirstNote: The very first thing that he noticed about Fu was the buzzing sound that her wings made and he was rendered speechless when he finally sees her ([[TheQuietOne not that you'd be able to tell]]).
268* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: TheQuietOne is the one who yells a BigNo [[spoiler:when his girlfriend gets her tailed beast sucked out and left near dead as a result]].
269* TheOneGuy: He's the only male medical ninja among the Konoha 15, something which Tsunade lampshades during their first lesson at the academy.
270* PostKissCatatonia: After Fu kissed him at the end of the Chunin Exams, it took him 2 hours before he could move again.
271* RejectingTheInheritance: [[spoiler:He stepped down from his position as clan heir in the epilogue to take the position as Konoha's {{ambadassador}} in Takigakure, marrying Fu about a year later.]]
272* TheStoic. Usually, [[NotSoStoic unless he's around Fu]].
273* StrongGirlSmartGuy: The Smart Guy to Fu's Strong girl. He has a sharp and analytical mind, and prefers to fight from a distance using his clan's kikai beetles.
274* UptightLovesWild: The uptight to Fu's wild. He's quiet and no-nonsense while she's excitable and cheery.

278!!Kiba Inuzuka
279----

281* BeastMan: He can transform into a humanoid werewolf for a power boost by fusing with Akamaru.
282* CanineCompanion: He's always seen with Akamaru.
283* DishingOutDirt: He has Earth Release affinity, though he never actually uses it.
284* FemaleFelineMaleMutt: With Tamaki, when they use their combined transformations with their respective animal partners.
285* FusionDance: With Akamaru, they can transform into a [[CanisMajor giant two-headed wolf]], or a humanoid wolf-man for a power boost.
286* HateAtFirstSight: He's hostile towards Tamaki from the moment she mentions that she likes cats while introducing herself. Exactly when these feelings became romantic is never specified.
287* LoveEpiphany: It's implied that seeing so many of the allied forces losing their loved ones made him realize his own feelings for Tamaki, as he considers confessing to her during Chapter 129. However, they decide to first make it through the war together, and fortunately they survive the ordeal.
288* OfficialCouple: He and Tamaki finally get together at the end of the Fourth Ninja War.
289* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: He can do a combo transformation with Akamaru, turning into a humanoid werewolf to boost his strength and agility.
290* ShockAndAwe: Being Kakashi's student, he learns to use the Chidori and applies it to some of his techniques.
291[[/folder]]
292
293[[folder:Tamaki]]
294!!Tamaki
295----
296* AdaptationalBadass: She's a kunoichi instead of a civilian here.
297* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Her first appearance in the manga was during the Itachi Pursuit arc. Here she shows up while Naruto is still in the academy.
298* AnimalJingoism: With Kiba. [[BelligerentSexualTension Or so she wants everyone to think]].
299* AscendedExtra: While not incredibly important to the overall story, she does have a much larger role than her manga counterpart (who only showed up ''twice'') and is a mainstay of the supporting cast.
300* AssKicksYou: Her Feline Aerial Bomber technique has her drop herself butt first on her opponent. She later creates an upgraded version called [[WreathedInFlames Blazing]] Feline Aerial Bomber.
301* TheBeastmaster: She fights in tandem with her ninja cats Denka and Hina, similar to how Kiba fights with Akamaru.
302* CatGirl: She can do a [[FusionDance combo transformation]] with Hina to turn into one for a power boost.
303* CuttingTheKnot: Having the cat summoning contract, the rest of the Konoha 15 were spared the annoyance of having to hunt down Tora the cat because she could just summon her whenever she ran away.
304* FemaleFelineMaleMutt: With Kiba, when they use the combo transformation with their respective animal partners.
305* NewTransferStudent: She transfers into the Konoha Ninja Academy after the events of [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]].
306* OfficialCouple: With Kiba at the end of the Fourth Ninja War, sealing the deal with a BigDamnKiss.
307* PlayingWithFire: Has fire affinity.
308* PromotedToLoveInterest: Downplayed. While she and Kiba are a couple in canon, they never get married. Here, they've tied knot by the time of the epilogue [[spoiler:and have a daughter.]]
309* ShockAndAwe: Also learns to use the Chidori under Kakashi's tutelage.
310* WolverineClaws: She uses a pair of clawed gauntlets in battle.

313[[folder:Kakashi Hatake]]
314!!Kakashi Hatake
315
316A jonin who was once a student of Minato Namikaze.
317----
318* AdaptationalBadass: While it's not a focal point, he retains Obito's Sharingan instead of losing it during the Fourth Shinobi WarArc.
319* CallingTheOldManOut: [[spoiler:During his encounter with his father, he takes the chance to tell Sakumo that he hated him for committing suicide and leaving him alone as a child. Once he vents that, however, he finds it in himself to tell Sakumo that he forgives him, giving him the closure to be released from the Edo Tensei.]]
320* DemotedToExtra: Has less focus than in canon due to no longer being Naruto's jonin sensei. That said, he still gets ADayInTheLimelight every once in a while, especially when [[spoiler:Obito and Rin]] are involved.
321* DueToTheDead: [[spoiler:In the epilogue, he has swapped out his habit of going to the Memorial Stone for visiting the park that was dedicated to Gai following his HeroicSacrifice.]]
322* ForWantOfANail: [[spoiler:Unlike canon, he still keeps Obito's Sharingan eye by the end of the story. He also doesn't become Hokage full-time, only assuming interim duties while Jiraiya attends a Kage summit following the end of the Fourth Ninja War]].
323* NoSell: He's the only one who is capable of countering [[spoiler:Obito's Kamui given how he has his own variant of the technique, and thus Obito doesn't bother using it when Kakashi and Rin confront him during the Fourth Shinobi WarArc]].
324* SparedByTheAdaptation: He isn't among the (temporary) casualties of the Akatsuki invasion.
325* StakingTheLovedOne: [[spoiler:He ends up having to face his resurrected father during the Fourth Ninja War.]]
326* TranquilFury: When he starts piecing together what happened behind Rin's death and Obito's FaceHeelTurn, he traps Zetsu in the Kamui dimension, with the heavy implication that [[JackBauerInterrogationTechnique he's gonna force him to spill the beans about it]].
327* YouAreInCommandNow: Subverted. At the end of the Fourth War, Jiraiya appoints him as temporary Hokage while he and Tsunade attend another Kage Summit, but assures him he'll reclaim the seat when he gets back.

331
332[[folder:Sakura Haruno]]
333!!Sakura Haruno
334
335----
336* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Downplayed. While she has a crush on Sasuke like in canon, she gets to know him more in-depth as they grow together, and by the time they start dating, he's toned down ''a lot'' of the worse aspects of his personality.
337* CombatMedic: Much like in canon, she was trained as a medical ninja by Tsunade, although she learned it in the academy as opposed to becoming her apprentice.
338* DemotedToExtra: She gets hit with this a lot harder than Sasuke or Kakashi did, since they at least still have major ties to the overall plot.
339* DrunkWithPower: Briefly PlayedForLaughs. When Naruto teaches her how to use her chakra to increase her physical strength, she's delighted [[InstantExpert after she instantly takes to it]], and starts destroying trees while going on a mad cackle.
340-->'''Sakura''': ''[reducing the boulder to rubble]'' YES! YES! I'M SAKURA THE UNSTOPPABLE! SAKURA THE INVINCIBLE! TREMBLE EVERYBODY, AND DESPAIR! YOUR DOOM HAS COME TO THIS WORLD! [[LaughingMad MWAHAHAHAHAHA! ]]
341* EmbarrassingNickname: After the changes in the academy curriculum caused her to start trailing behind her classmates, Ino started calling her "the pink punching bag".
342* HealingFactor: She learns Tsunade's Ninja Art: One Hundred Healings, one of the most powerful healing jutsu. [[spoiler:It comes in handy during the final battle, as it powers up the Golden Avatar of Kalika with self-regenerative capacities]].
343* PoisonousPerson: Shizune taught her how to use the Poison Mist Jutsu, which she uses against Naruto during their match in the Chunin Exam preliminaries.
344* PowerDyesYourHair: Her Iron Skin jutsu turns her hair metallic silver and her skin brown.
345* SuperToughness: Her Iron Skin jutsu makes her body as tough as metal, though she can only perform it in short bursts due to the chakra drain.
346* SuperpowerLottery: She has a rare dual elemental affinity (Earth and Water), though she can't perform any of their combined variants like Wood or Mud Release.
347* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Ino, like in canon. They eventually reconcile after defeating Sakon and Ukon.

350[[folder:Karin Uzumaki]]
351!!Karin Uzumaki
352
353A descendant of the Uzumaki clan, who arrived to Konoha with her mother searching for living relatives.
354----
355* AdaptationNameChange: She bears the Uzumaki clan name as her surname.
356* AdaptationalNationality: Canon Karin grew up in Kusagakure instead of Konoha.
357* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: She's first introduced during the academy arc, a good eight years earlier in the timeline than her canon counterpart.
358* AdaptationalHeroism: She never works for Orochimaru here, instead growing up as a loyal shinobi of Konoha.
359* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: At first, like Sakura, she develops a crush on Sasuke, but eventually she gets fed up with his attitude problems, and moves on to Neji, who is much nicer to her.
360* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: When the members of the Medical Squad were making their introductions, she said her dream was to restore the Uzumaki clan to its former glory. [[spoiler:Given how she was a preteen at the time, it probably didn't occur to her that [[MassiveNumberedSiblings she'd have to personally give birth all those new clan members]].]]
361* BondingOverMissingParents: She and Naruto briefly bond in Chapter 32 over the fact that the both lost parents who died protecting them, though Naruto doesn't give her any details beyond that due to Minato and Kushina's relationship to him being classified.
362* ChainPain: She often uses the Adamantine Sealing Chains, one of the Uzumaki Clan's signature techniques, either to attack or restrict her enemies.
363* CombatMedic: Like Sakura, she was trained in medical ninjutsu by Tsunade.
364* ConflictingLoyalty: Played for laughs at the beginning of the Kirigakure Civil War arc where she isn't sure who to cheer for during a sparring match between Sasuke and Neji because one of them is her teammate and the other is her boyfriend.
365* DisappearedDad: Her father died protecting her and her mother from a kidnapping when she was a child.
366* DishingOutDirt: She has Earth Release affinity.
367* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: Her relationship with Neji is kicked off when she heals his wounds after his fight against Sasuke.
368* HasAType: Both the boys she shows attraction to in the story have many things in common, being young ninja prodigies descended from prominent Konoha clans, with cold and aloof attitudes. However, the defining factor in her choosing Neji over Sasuke is that the former is more polite and shows gratitude to her after she heals him.
369* MundaneLuxury: Having spent her early childhood constantly moving with her mother out of fear of being captured by people who wanted to use them for being a part of the Uzumaki bloodline, she considers "having a permanent home" to be exceptional enough to include in a list of things she likes.
370* NewTransferStudent: She transfers into the Konoha Ninja Academy after the events of [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]].
371* PromotedToLoveInterest: She ends up in a relationship with Neji after losing her crush on Sasuke.
372* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: Downplayed. Her biological relationship with Naruto as clansmen of indeterminant relation is the same, but here they consider themselves cousins and address each other as such.
373* ResignedToTheCall: Subverted. [[spoiler:She very nearly becomes the jinchūriki of Kurama's Yin half (something that she was... less than enthused about) but Obito escapes with it before they have the chance to seal it in her.]]
374* ShipperWithAnAgenda: She tries to push Sakura together with Lee after finding out about his crush on her so she can have Sasuke for herself. It doesn't last very long, since she loses interest in Sasuke soon afterwards.
375* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Her crush on Sasuke starts transferring to Neji because he's actually grateful for her healing, even buying her lunch as thanks afterwards.
376* SuperMode: [[spoiler:She gains Sage Mode under Naruto's tutalage, which supercharges her natural sensor abilities in addition to its other benefits.]]
377* SuperStrength: Naruto teaches her how to perform Tsunade's enhanced strength technique while they're in the academy, though she only uses it when her normal skill set won't work.
378* TokenMinority: She's the only one of Team Shizune to be born outside the Land of Fire. She shares this distinction with Haku among the Konoha 15.

381[[folder:Sasuke Uchiha]]
382!!Sasuke Uchiha
383
384One of the last few survivors of the Uchiha clan, along with Itachi and Shisui. Being the youngest of them, he has a harder time coping with his clan's current reputation.
385----
386* AbledInTheAdaptation: Unlike canon, he doesn't lose his left arm at the end of the story.
387* AdaptationalBadass: Zigzagged between this and AdaptationalWimp. He awakens the Mangekyo Sharingan at the end of Part I, and has an eye surgery to transplant eyes with Itachi, allowing him to gain earlier access to Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and Susanoo. However, he only can summon hawks as opposed to hawks ''and'' snakes, and unlike his canon counterpart doesn't ever gain a Rinnegan.
388* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike in canon, he does not defect from Konoha or become a missing-nin at any point.
389* AdaptationalJobChange: He becomes a Jonin-sensei in the epilogue instead of acting as a lone agent for the village.
390* AdaptationalNiceGuy: He retains much of his Part I personality, managing to keep his anger and pride issues mostly in check thanks to the influence of Shisui and Itachi, and knowing the truth about his clan.
391* BashBrothers: During the Fourth Ninja War, with Itachi.
392* BerserkButton: Do ''not'' bring up [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]] around him. Neji made the mistake of pushing that one a little bit too hard during their match in the Chunin Exam preliminaries and he nearly ended up having to be hospitalized.
393* DeathFromAbove: His most powerful Lightning Release jutsu, the Kirin, summons a massive lightning bolt from the sky. It's powerful enough to stagger [[spoiler:Kurama's Yin half]], albeit only temporarily.
394* DemotedToExtra: While he's still has a fairly large presence, it's nowhere near the level of his manga counterpart.
395* EpiphanyComeback: For a long while, he struggles in using his Mangekyo Sharingan and the full extent of its capabilities because using it makes him relive the moment he obtained it ([[spoiler: stabbing a brainwashed Naruto and made to believe he killed him]]) and he struggles to come to terms with it. But when [[spoiler: Itachi is in danger from their reanimated father]], he recalls Sakura's pep talk, affirms his own dreams and purpose of being a ninja, and perfects his own Susanoo.
396* FamilyHonor: This is a major motivator for Sasuke, though for entirely different reasons than his canon counterpart. [[spoiler:Here, Itachi and Shisui fail to prevent the Uchiha coup, which resulted in massive civilian and ninja casualties. The two of them and Sasuke become pariahs due to their clansmen's actions as the only three survivors and Sasuke's primary goal is to restore his family's good name.]]
397* FlamingSword: Sasuke's Fire Release: Burning Edge coats the blade of his katana with fire. His Susanoo can also set its own blade into [[{{Hellfire}} the black flames of Amaterasu]].
398* FriendlessBackground: Due to [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]], Sasuke ends up a pariah much like Naruto was in canon. The only ones who really liked him for most of his time in the academy were Sakura, Karin, and Tamaki (the former two having a crush on him and the latter's family being a longtime ally of the Uchiha clan).
399* FriendlyRivalry: Unlike in canon, his relationship with Naruto is a lot healthier, even if they're still competitive.
400* MagicKnight: Like canon, he's a swordsman who uses ninjutsu, mainly specializing in fire and lightning techniques.
401* MySisterIsOffLimits: He dislikes the fact that Natsu has feelings for Itachi, something that both Sakura and Shizune rib him over.
402* TheOneGuy: He's the only male member of the Medical Squad (and the only one who ''isn't'' a medic-nin).
403* PlayingWithFire: One of his main elemental affinities is Fire Release.
404* PlasmaCannon: He can create a pseudo-Plasma Release by channeling fire and lightning in each of his swords and bringing them together.
405* PurpleIsPowerful: Like in canon, his Susanoo's chakra is purple.
406* ShockAndAwe: His secondary elemental affinity is Lightning Release.
407* ShootTheMedicFirst: His role on the Medical Squad is specifically to prevent this.
408* SupportPartyMember: He inverts this as related to the above point. While his teammates and sensei do have some offensive skills, his skill set is mostly combat oriented and is meant to balance a team with medics.
409* TheresNoKillLikeOverkill: Justified. [[spoiler:Considering that he knew Madara came back from the dead before because his corpse was left intact, it's no wonder he chooses to incinerate it with Amaterasu to make sure he stays dead]].
410* TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: He first awoke his Sharingan [[spoiler:when he wakes up the day after the Uchiha Insurrection and Itachi tells him what happened]] and the Mangekyo [[spoiler:when Obito tricks him into thinking that he accidentally killed Naruto.]]
411* WreathedInFlames: His Burning Man technique covers his body in flames that both protect him from enemies and give a boost to his speed and strength.
412* YouAreInCommandNow: Shizune appointed him as the temporary head of the Medical Squad while she was on maternity leave due to him being the only one among the trio above genin rank at the time.
413[[/folder]]
414
415[[folder:Shizune Kato]]
416!!Shizune Uchiha (née Kato)
417
418Foster daughter of Jiraiya and Tsunade, and niece of Tsunade's late boyfriend Dan. Trained as a medic-nin by the latter, she eventually becomes the jonin sensei of the medical squad.
419----
420* ActionMom: She gives birth to two children during the TimeSkip and remains an active ninja throughout (barring her maternal leave).
421* AdaptationalBadass: She gets to show off more of her combat abilities than in canon, but it really drives home when she [[spoiler:learns to use Sage Mode]].
422* AdaptationalJobChange: From being the Hokage's assistant in canon to a Jonin-sensei in the fanfic.
423* AdaptationNameChange: Unlike in canon, she uses her late uncle's surname Kato, at least until she marries Shisui and takes the Uchiha surname.
424* AscendedExtra: Being Naruto's older sister and the jonin instructor of the medical squad, she has a much bigger presence in the story compared to [[SatelliteCharacter her canon counterpart]].
425* BattleCouple: With Shisui.
426* BewareTheNiceOnes: Shizune is a caring and gentle woman, whether it be to her adopted siblings, her students, or her husband and children. Of course, one should not forget that she was personally trained by one of the Sannin and specializes in choking her opponents to death with poisonous gas.
427* CallingParentsByTheirName: While she's treated as the eldest of Tsunade and Jiraiya's children, she always refers to them by their names (or title in Jiraiya's case, after he becomes Hokage) and the honorific "-sama". The closest she comes to call them parents is when she teasingly refers to Tsunade as Shiro's "grandma".
428* CasualKink: She and Shisui seem to have a very...''interesting'' sex life.
429-->'''Shizune:''' Maybe I could be the one handcuffed to the bed this time around...
430* CombatMedic: Having been personally trained by the greatest medical-nin on the planet, Shizune has both killing a member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist and running a hospital during a major crisis on her list of accomplishments.
431* CoolBigSis: She is a major influence to Naruto in his early years (most prominently, she was directly responsible for him becoming friends with Hinata). This also extends to Kaida and Hagane after they're born.
432* HappilyAdopted: While never officially adopted like Naruto was, she is treated as Jiraiya and Tsunade's daughter in every way that matters (Tsunade even refers to Shiro and Shizuka as her grandkids).
433* HappilyMarried: She's shown to have a very loving life with Shisui, both emotionally and physically.
434* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Itachi, who is ten years her junior.
435* KnightTemplarParent: She (understandably) becomes very protective of her children after their attempted kidnapping to the point of demanding that a squad of highly trained jonin be assigned as babysitters instead of the usual genin.
436* MakingASplash: She has Water Release affinity.
437* MamaBear: She and her husband go on the warpath after their children are kidnapped, fully prepared to murder Danzo and any of his subordinates that get in the way.
438* MoralityChain: Discussed. When the two of them go to hunt down Danzo, Shisui notes that he'll be emotionally relying on her to make sure that he doesn't fully give in to his inner darkness.
439* PoisonousPerson: Her preferred method of attack usually involves poison.
440* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: She's a lot older her younger siblings (even without mentioning the twins, there's 16 years between her and Naruto). In fact, Naruto, Hagane, and Kaida are actually closer in age to her infant children than they are to her.
441* SamaritanRelationshipStarter: Itachi was one the first people to not treat Naruto as a monster for being a jinchūriki, something which puts him in Shizune's good book and would lead to a lifelong friendship between the two.
442* ServileSnarker: Unlike canon, Shizune has no problem sassing Tsunade, especially when it comes to her gambling vices. It's implied that Naruto's rebellious nature rubbed off on her.
443-->'''Tsunade''': Shizune, if I didn't bet all my money on Naruto, I'd imply I don't have enough faith in him, and that would make me a bad mother. By doing so, I'm showing both Naruto and everybody else how much I trust his skill. You could say is my duty as a mother to bet all my money on him.
444-->'''Shizune''': Wow... your brain must be sore after all the mental gymnastics you went through to justify your bullshit, Tsunade-sama.
445* ShipperOnDeck: She is quick to notice that Hinata has a crush on Naruto and gives her the little push she needs to [[ChildhoodFriendRomance become friends with him]].
446* SparedByTheAdaptation: She isn't among the (temporary) casualties of the Akatsuki invasion.
447* StakingTheLovedOne: [[spoiler:She ends up facing her resurrected uncle during the Fourth Ninja War.]]
448* SuperMode: Learns [[spoiler:Sage Mode from Naruto]].
449* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: [[spoiler:She tries to pull this on her uncle Dan when he's brought back as part of Orochimaru's Edo Tensei army, but Orochimaru pulls a VillainOverride to keep her from doing so.]]
450* UptownGirl: While it's never directly addressed in the story, there was a rather large social gap between her and Shisui when they started dating. Her foster father had just been appointed Hokage while he [[spoiler:was the head of a newly disgraced clan.]]

459----
460* AdaptationalBadass: He learns how to use the Celestial Gates, which drastically improves his (already impressive) taijutsu.
461* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Due to his father's survival, he never develops a hatred for the Hyuga's main family. And while he keeps his fatalist views, he never uses it to look down on anyone.
462* ObliviousToLove: He completely fails to pick up on Karin's feelings for him until Hikari spells it out for him, much to the latter's exasperation.
463* RemovedAchillesHeel: [[spoiler:Once Hinata figures out how to erase the Caged Bird Seal, he and the rest of the Branch Hyugas get it removed altogether (he even volunteered to be the very first test subject).]]
464* SecondLove: For Karin, once she gets over her crush on Sasuke.
465* SparedByTheAdaptation: He survives through the Fourth Ninja War, even taking part in the final battle along with his peers.
466* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: A non-romantic example. Naruto takes notice that he (along with the rest of the Branch House Hyugas) seems unusually happy [[spoiler:after the Caged Bird Seal is removed from him]].
467* YouAreInCommandNow: [[spoiler:He becomes the new leader of the close combat squad upon Gai's death.]]

470[[folder:Rock Lee]]
471!!Rock Lee
472
473A youth whose dream is to be a great ninja despite not being able to use ninjutsu or genjutsu, relying only on taijutsu.
474----
475* BadassNormal: Much like in canon, he is incapable of using any chakra based techniques. [[spoiler:It's mentioned in the epiloge that this led to some friction with the Kurama clan's elders while he and Yakumo were dating, as they feared that his condition would result in him fathering "defective" children.]]
476* BerserkButton: Do ''not'' insult his sensei in front of him, period.
477* CelibateHero: Aside from his early crush on Sakura, he never shows any interest in romance and remains the only member of the Konoha 15 who doesn't have a significant other (or implied significant other in [[BelligerentSexualTension Kiba and Tamaki's]] case) by the time the Fourth Ninja War rolls around. [[spoiler:{{Averted}} by the epilogue, where it's revealed he married Yakumo]].
478* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Like in canon, he can only fight using taijutsu and is ''really'' good at it.
479* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: He's a BadassNormal who is probably one of the greatest hand-to-hand combatants on the planet, while [[spoiler:his eventual wife is a physically frail MasterOfIllusion.]]
480* HardWorkHardlyWorks: Averted. He pulls through the battle against Mizuki (who was using his [[OneWingedAngel Cursed Seal]] at the time) and defeats him through sheer force of will and endurance.
481* ParentalAbandonment: He's specified to be an orphan whose parents died the night of the Kyubi attack. No mention is made of who raised him afterwards.
482* PursuingParentalPerils: He briefly mentions to Sakura during her endurance training that he was told his parents died protecting him on the night of the Kyubi attack, and his drive for becoming a skilled ninja is fueled by wanting to protect others just like they protected him (well, that and make Gai proud of him).
483* TeacherStudentRomance: His romance with his wife [[spoiler:Yakumo]] started while he was acting as her fitness instructor.

486[[folder:Tenten]]
487!!Tenten
488
489----
490* AdaptationalBadass: Gai teaches her how to use the Celestial Gates in the lead up to the Chunin Exams, though unlike with Lee, Neji, and Gai himself she uses it to enhance her weapon mastery instead of unarmed combat. She's also the only one among her team to be promoted to Chunin on her first try. The story also makes her a MagicKnight as she also knows Lightning Release.
491* AdaptationalJobChange: In the epilogue, she's working as an Academy teacher instead of a weapon store owner.
492* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: It's never specified if she has parents or is an orphan. In fact, she's the only member of the Konoha 15 who's home life is a complete mystery.
493* EmbarrassingRelativeTeacher: [[spoiler:In the epilogue, her eldest daughter was not happy with having her as a homeroom teacher.]]
494* EnergyBow: Inspired by Naruto's chakra blade, she invents a bow capable of channeling the user's chakra into an energy arrow (including elemental releases), thus eliminating the need for physical ammo.
495* HighHopesZeroTalent: Tenten idolized Tsunade and wanted to pursue a career as a CombatMedic to be like her. Unfortunately, she proved to have no potential whatsoever when it came to medicine, and was eventually convinced to refocus her attention elsewhere.
496* MultiMeleeMaster: Has expertise in the use of all sorts of weapons, both melee and ranged ones.
497* ShockAndAwe: It's mentioned at several points that she has Lightning Release affinity, though she hasn't actually practiced any elemental jutsu.
498* SpellBlade: She specializes in the Chakra Flow technique which can be used to power up objects (it was noted that she was the only one of her graduating class to take the course in the academy). When combining it with the Celestial Gates, she can turn an ordinary kunai into an armor-piercing projectile that causes a small explosion when it finally embeds into the ground.
499* WorthyOpponent: For Gaara, of all people. He openly acknowledges her strength after beating her in the Chunin Exam Finals, and instantly accepts when she asks him for a rematch in the future.

507* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Like student, like teacher.
508* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Unlike in canon, he dies during the fourth ninja war after delivering his strongest attack on Madara Uchiha]].
509* GenerationXerox: [[spoiler:As Chiyo points out, he died the exact same was as his father: protecting his comrades by using all eight Celestial Gates to defeat a vastly more powerful opponent.]]
510* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:His final stand against Madara Uchiha saved thousands of lives (including those of his students), and gave the allied forces a very much needed reprieve by putting him temporarily out of commission]].
511* InSpiteOfANail: Just like in canon, he fights against Madara Uchiha one on one, [[spoiler:and unlike canon, he does not survive the battle]].
512* MemorialStatue: [[spoiler:He had an entire park dedicated in his honor after his death, with a large statue of him doing his nice guy pose near the entrance. Kakashi makes a point of regularly visiting it, much like how he previously did with Obito's name on the Memorial Stone.]]
513* NoBodyLeftBehind: [[spoiler:After delivering his final attack on Madara, he disintegrates into ash]].
514* WorfHadTheFlu: [[spoiler:Part of the reason he couldn't kill Madara was because he spent a huge chunk of energy in destroying the meteors to save as many lives as possible. Nevertheless, Madara later admits he ''did'' fear for his life, and he might have succeeded had his final attack struck his head]].

523
524Jiraiya and Tsunade's twin biological children. Kaida awakened Hashirama's Wood Release, while Hagane developed a new bloodline limit that makes his elemental affinity Nature itself, and allows him to give others chakra and power boosts.
525----
526
527* BlowYouAway: Half of Hagane's jutsu are wind-based.
528* CatchPhrase: Kaida will usually complain "I'm the closest thing Konoha has to a princess" whenever she feels that she's being forced to do something that she believes is below her station ([[MundaneUtility like using her Wood Release to patch up the lawn]]).
529* ConvenientComa: [[spoiler:Hagane ends up in a coma after being caught in an explosion while facing Toneri during the Roshi mission, not recovering until the Akatsuki invasion. It would have made him an easy target for Root's Operation: Rising Phoenix, but [[MamaBear Tsunade]] just happened to have stopped by to check on him while on a break at the hospital when the kidnappers showed up.]]
530* DamselInDistress: They're both kidnapped by the Sound Five during the Sound Invasion, leading Naruto and the rest of the Konoha 15 to mount a rescue mission.
531* FanCreatedOffspring: Neither of them exist in canon. They're also the only original ones who qualify as actual characters during the story proper since none of the others are even concieved until near the end of Part I.
532* GirlishPigtails: How Kaida styles her hair.
533* GreenThumb: Kaida inherited her great-grandfather's Wood Release and is the only living character in the story who came by it naturally as opposed to BioAugmentation.
534* MysticalWhiteHair: They both inherited their father's white hair, and both possess rare Bloodline Limits.
535* PolarOppositeTwins: Hagane is the more mature and level-headed of the two, while Kaida tends to be more childish and sometimes a bit bratty.
536* ShipperOnDeck: Both of them ship their older brother with Hinata.
537* SiblingTeam: They're eventually grouped together in the same genin team, along with Hanabi Hyuga (who might as well count as an in-law since her sister is dating their brother).
538* ShockAndAwe: The other half of Hagane's jutsu are lightning-based.
539* SuperEmpowering: Hagane can give others chakra boosts with his bloodline limit.
540* SuperpowerLottery: Both of them have powerful bloodline limits. Konohamaru even complains about the two of them and Hanabi being on the same team in the "Hanabi Gaiden" because it's ''too overpowered''.
541* WonderTwinPowers: Downplayed. At first it seems they needed to be in close proximity to each other for their powers to awaken, but they're later shown to be able to control their abilities at will independently.

545!!Hanabi Hyuga
546
547Hinata's younger sister.
548----
549* AdaptationalBadass: [[spoiler:Thanks to being given part of Hamura's chakra by Hinata, she gains several new powers and abilities she didn't have in canon]].
550* BadassInDistress: She is ambushed and captured by Root as part of Operation: Rising Phoenix while she was running some errands, though Hinata notes after rescuing her that they never would have been able to capture her had it been a straight fight even with her being outnumbered.
551* BigSisterWorship: Even moreso than in canon. She even emulates her elemental techniques out of a desire to be just like her.
552* ADayInTheLimelight: She's the main character of the Hanabi Gaiden spinoff.
553* DrunkWithPower: While it's only hinted at during the main story that she's a bit ''too'' excited after receiving [[spoiler:the Tenseigan from Hinata]], the Hanabi Gaiden shows that she was very close to fall into this.
554* ElementalPunch: In an effort to mimic her older sister, she develops a fire variant of the Gentle Fist.
555* {{Flight}}: [[spoiler:Like Hinata, once she awakens the Tenseigan she's able to learn how to use its telekinetic powers to achieve flight, though she needs instruction from Fu at first]].
556* GirlsHaveCooties: Gender flipped. She found the idea of kissing to be gross when she was a child, though Hinata tells her she'll understand when she's older. [[spoiler:Humorously, she's one of a very short list of canon characters who isn't shown to have a significant other in the epilogue.]]
557* HiddenDepths: While she genuinely loves and admires her older sister, deep down she harbors a bit of an InferioritySuperiorityComplex in regards to her. There's also the fact that she wants to be strong to keep her loved ones safe whatever it takes, [[spoiler:due to being powerless to prevent her father's death during the Uchiha Insurrection]].
558* IDidWhatIHadToDo: [[spoiler:When she unleashes her power and (accidentally) kills the Hyugas who were conspiring to murder her along with her sister and mother, she tries to ease her mind by telling herself [[AssholeVictim that they deserved it]] and she had to protect her family. It doesn't work, however, and she remains visibly unnerved afterwards]].
559* KungFuWizard: Similar to Hinata, Hanabi's fighting style is this, as she uses the Gentle Fist and Fire Release.
560* NecessarilyEvil: She veers dangerously close to this trope during her sidestory, deciding that she'll do whatever it takes to keep her loved ones safe. Thankfully, Konohamaru snaps her out of it.
561* PlatonicLifePartners: Her relationship with Konohamaru develops into this in her gaiden, with a dash of FriendlyRivalry.
562* PlayingWithFire: She has Fire Release affinity and uses it to create her own fire variations of her sister's Lightning techniques.
563* ShipperOnDeck: Hanabi is very supportive of her sister's relationship with Naruto.
564* SuperMode: [[spoiler:She underwent Sage Mode training under Naruto and she has access to the Tenseigan's chakra cloak thanks to Hinata giving her half of Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra.]]
565* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: She veers dangerously close to this trope after [[spoiler:she awakens the Tenseigan]] in her side story, since her desire to be strong to protect her loved ones causes her to slip into being extremely ruthless and losing control of her powers. Thankfully, she's snapped out of it after [[spoiler:she fights Konohamaru and accidentally takes out his eye when she goes overboard.]]

572* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: He appears during the Part I timeframe, while in canon he wasn't introduced until ''Shippuden''.
573* AdaptationNameChange: Never assumes the name Yamato here.
574* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:He's killed off by Tayuya during the Fourth Ninja War]].
575* DemotedToExtra: He never really interacts with Naruto at any point in the story.

588* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:He's killed by Obito during the Uchiha Insurrection.]]
589* DudeLooksLikeALady: One of the few males Hyugas who ''avert'' this trope, according to his wife.

596Hiashi's wife, and mother of Hinata and Hanabi.
597----
598* AscendedExtra: She only shows up in a flashback in the anime and doesn't even exist in the manga. Here, she's a member of the supporting cast.
599* BestFriendsInLaw: It's implied that she was friends with Kushina when the latter was alive, and their children are in a relationship.
600* DeathByChildbirth: Averted. Misdiagnosed complications from Hanabi's birth nearly ended up killing her due to the infection going untreated for several years, though with Tsunade's help she was able to make a full recovery (save for being rendered barren from the damage that had already been done).
601* DontCallMeSir: She insists that Neji call her "Aunt Hikari" instead of "Hikari-sama" since [[spoiler:her stepping down as clan head and Hinata abolishing the separation between the main and branch families means that they're social equals.]]
602* GoodParents: Despite being somewhat stern, she's very loving and supporting towards her daughters.
603* KungFuWizard: Like her daughters, she is proficient in the Gentle Fist and an elemental power, in this case water.
604* LikeMotherLikeDaughter: In both appearance and personality, she and Hinata are very much alike.
605* MakingASplash: She mentions early on that her elemental affinity is Water Release, though she's never actually had a use for it. [[spoiler:She eventually applies it to her daughter's elemental Gentle Fist technique by the time of the Fourth Ninja War.]]
606* NamedByTheAdaptation: She was never given a name in the anime.
607* ShipperOnDeck: Quickly takes notice of Hinata's crush on Naruto, and fully supports it. She also acts this way towards Neji's relationship with Karin.
608* SilkHidingSteel: For the most part of the story she's portrayed as a kind and polite woman, who is very loving towards her daughters. The Steel part shows during the Akatsuki Invasion and Fourth Ninja War arcs, where she's seen in combat and proves why she's the clan's head.
609* StakingTheLovedOne: [[spoiler:She ends up facing her revived husband in the Fourth Ninja War.]]
610* YamatoNadeshiko: Hinata certainly views her mother this way. It's the main reason why she admires her so much and tries to emulate her.
611* YouAreInCommandNow: Both on the giving and receiving end. She becomes head of the Hyuga clan [[spoiler:after her husband is killed in the Uchiha insurrection]], and later steps down [[spoiler:when Hinata develops the Tenseigan]].

620* SparedByTheAdaptation: Thanks to the intervention of Jiraiya and Tsunade, the Hyuga affair is solved without him having to sacrifice his life.

629* PromotedToLoveInterest: For Itachi.
630* RemovedAchillesHeel: [[spoiler:Once Hinata figures out how to erase the Caged Bird Seal, she and the rest of the Branch Hyugas get it removed altogether.]]

635
636[[folder:Itachi Uchiha]]
637!!Itachi Uchiha
638
639Sasuke's older brother.
640----
641* AbledInTheAdaptation: His disease is caught in the early stages thanks to him not going undercover with Akatsuki, and is given treatment before it can become serious.
642* AdaptationalBadass: Downplayed, but here he gets the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan after Sasuke awakens his own Mangekyo, and as such can use Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, and Susanoo without worrying about going blind.
643* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed. He was always technically a hero, it's just that here it's a public status rather than being TheMole.
644* AdaptationalJobChange: Because [[spoiler:the Uchiha jump the gun and rebel before Hiruzen and the Elders could do anything]], Itachi no longer serves as TheMole within Akatsuki, and simply takes up Jiraiya's job as a spy.
645* BigBrotherMentor: To Sasuke, obviously.
646* BodyguardingABadass: He serves as Jiraiya's security detail on a few occasions like the Chunin Exam finals and the Kage Summit.
647* CommutingOnABus: He often comes and goes out of Konoha to carry out his spy duties and report his findings.
648* IntergenerationalFriendship: He's about ten years younger than Shizune, but the two have been close friends since at least when he was a preteen.
649* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: His Susanoo carries the Mirror of Yata, an (almost) indestructible shield [[AttackReflector capable of reflecting attacks]].
650* MoralityChain: His presence helps curb Sasuke's ego and keeps him from going AWOL.
651* OnlyOneName: He is briefly disowned from the Uchiha clan due to his refusal to support their planned coup. It ends up being rescinded after Shisui is appointed as the new clan head and he regains his last name.
652* SparedByTheAdaptation: Sasuke never kills him since he never faked going AWOL, and his illness is caught and treated when the first symptoms show up, and survives all the way through the Fourth Ninja War.
653* TheSpymaster: Jiraiya appoints him the head of Konoha's spy network upon becoming Hokage.
654* TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: His Mangekyo Sharingan awakened after [[spoiler:he was forced to kill his father in battle.]]
655* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Much like his canon counterpart. At age seven he was willing to look past the public opinion and trust Shizune that Naruto wasn't dangerous, and Hiruzen was already considering him to one day succeed him as Hokage when he was thirteen ([[spoiler:though his HeroWithBadPublicity status due to the Uchiha Insurrection probably nipped that potential career in the bud]]).
656* TheWorfEffect: His Susanoo's shield gets cracked by [[spoiler:his father's]] own Susanoo with its dual blade, to drive the point home of how powerful the latter is.

660!!Shisui Uchiha
661Itachi's close friend and cousin, appointed as the head of the remaining Uchiha in the wake of the insurrection.
662----
663* AbledInTheAdaptation: Canon Shisui actually lost both eyes before his death (one stolen by Danzo and the other willingly given to Itachi). Here he only loses the first one [[spoiler:and eventually gets it back.]]
664* ActionDad: He's a father of two post-TimeSkip and considered to be one of the most powerful ninja in Konoha.
665* AdaptationalBadass: Here he learns how to [[spoiler:use Senjutsu]].
666* AscendedExtra: A PosthumousCharacter in canon, here he plays a much bigger role.
667* BattleCouple: He and Shizune fight side by side after their children are kidnapped.
668* CasualKink: According to Shizune, they enjoy handcuffing the other one to their bed.
669* DisabilityNegatingSuperpower: He relies on his Sharingan for depth perception after Danzo steals one of his eyes. [[spoiler:One of the things he's happiest about after getting his eye back is not having to do that anymore.]]
670* HandicappedBadass: Despite only having one of his Sharingan, Shisui is still capable of getting by in combat with it and refuses to have a new eye transplanted. [[spoiler:It's ultimately subverted when Rin gets his original eye back from Obito]].
671* HappilyMarried: He and Shizune are shown to have a loving marriage, both emotionally and physically.
672* HouseHusband: Downplayed. He starts taking lower raking missions after becoming a father, so if something happened to Shizune their kids wouldn't end up being orphaned.
673* KeepingTheHandicap: When asked about getting a transplant to replace his stolen eye, he says that he finds the idea of having some stranger's bodypart implanted into his face to be creepy and that he'll live with only one eye unless he manages to get the original back. [[spoiler:And sure enough, he has no problem having the original reimplanted when Rin recovers it from Obito seven years later.]]
674* LikesOlderWomen: He's four years younger than Shizune, meaning that he would have been a teenager when they started dating while she was in her early twenties.
675* MyGreatestFailure: Much to Sasuke's surprise, it isn't [[spoiler:the Uchiha Insurrection]] but the death of his rival Shunichi ([[MurderByInaction Shisui refused to help him fight someone far above his level in an attempt to teach him some humility, and Shunichi died as a result]]) that he considers to be his worst mistake, because at least in case of the former he did everything he could to prevent it.
676* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: According to what he tells Sasuke, Shunichi's family won't let him forget that he was responsible for his death, something he's come to accept because he knows they're right.
677* PapaWolf: While he already had a laundry list of reasons to want Danzo dead, it's only after his children are kidnapped that he tries to kill him.
678* PromotionToParent: By virtue of being the oldest living Uchiha after [[spoiler:the insurrection]], he's this to both Itachi and Sasuke.
679* RemovedAchillesHeel: [[spoiler:After he undergoes Sage Mode training, he's able to offset the usual handicaps of the Mangekyo Sharingan, even able to use Susanoo at full power once he regains his lost eye]].
680* SparedByTheAdaptation: Itachi doesn't let him commit suicide, unlike in canon.
681* StepfordSmiler: Downplayed. While he's genuinely upbeat and nice, he does carry his fair share of emotional burden over causing Shunichi's death and [[spoiler:failing to prevent the Uchiha Insurrection]], but he's learned to cope with it in a positive way.
682* SuperMode: He learns [[spoiler:Sage Mode from Naruto]]. He can use it to enhance his Susanoo and stop his eyesight from deteriorating, since he doesn't have an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
683* YouAreInCommandNow: Is appointed as the new head of the Uchiha Clan by Jiraiya [[spoiler:by virtue of being the oldest one left after their insurrection.]]

687!!Fugaku Uchiha
688
689Itachi and Sasuke's father, and the last leader of the Uchiha Clan before the insurrection.
690----
691* AdaptationalVillainy: Of a sort. While as per canon he increasingly becomes resentful of how the Uchiha are being treated, he ends up [[spoiler:becoming an ArcVillain during the Uchiha Insurrection arc]] thanks to Obito's influence.
692* TheBusCameBack: In the Fourth Ninja War, he's revived as an Edo Tensei zombie and fights his two sons.
693* DeathBySecretIdentity: Sort of. He dies shortly after revealing that he knows about Naruto's parentage.
694* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Zigzagged. He still dies at Itachi's hands, but this time he dies in battle rather than allowing his son to peacefully kill him.
695* DoppelgangerAttack: His Mangekyo Sharingan has access to Okuninushi, a jutsu that creates negative-colored afterimages of the user. These can either follow the user's movements, or be controlled to attack independently.
696* DoubleWeapon: His Susanoo [[DualWielding wields two swords]] that can be combined into a dual-bladed one. And it can also [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks be thrown to attack from a distance]].
697* IHaveNoSon: He disowned Itachi due to his refusal to support the clan in their coup.
698* OffingTheOffspring: Subverted. He ''thought'' he had successfully killed Itachi in their battle, but it quickly turned out to have been a clone. However, those few seconds before he realized the truth were enough to activate his Mangekyo Sharingan.
699* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Played with. His Susanoo is black with red outlines, but he never used it when he was alive (since he awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan just before he died). And while he's an antagonist when he uses it in the Fourth Ninja War, this time he's not even a willing one.
700* TakeCareOfTheKids: His last words were requesting that Itachi care for Sasuke.
701* VillainHasAPoint: He points out [[spoiler:during the Uchiha Insurrection]] that the position of Hokage is nothing but a succession of likeminded individuals in a MasterApprenticeChain that keeps the status quo from changing and the inheritors of the Senju clan's will in power. Hiruzen admits to himself that he is right on some level.

721* BaseBreakingCharacter: Shiro was an in-universe example in the months leading up to his birth, with the entire village torn between either being excited about more Sharingan users being born or [[spoiler:wishing that the "Red Eyed Demons" would just die before they had a chance to pull another coup.]]
722* FanCreatedOffspring: Neither of them existed in canon, given how their parents never met and their father died long before they would have been born.
723* MacGuffinSuperPerson: Both of them are kidnapped by Root as part of Operation: Rising Phoenix due to their Uchiha heritage.

726!Konoha's elders
727
728[[folder:Hiruzen Sarutobi]]
729!!Hiruzen Sarutobi
730
731Third Hokage of Konoha, who came out of retirement after Minato's death.
732----
733* AffectionateNickname: [[spoiler:Mito]] calls him "Saru".
734* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Despite having a near-death experience [[spoiler:during the Uchiha Insurrection]], he manages to pull through and continues to play a supporting role well into the Fourth Ninja War, [[spoiler:until he's killed off by Edo Tensei!Mito Uzumaki]].
735* OldSoldier: Despite his age, he still has it in him when there's the need to fight.
736* ParentsAsPeople: He somehow managed to juggle being the head of the Sarutobi clan, the Third Hokage, and the Jonin sensei for the Sannin. Unfortunately -as Asuma bitterly points out during his wedding- it didn't leave him a lot of time to be a father.
737[[/folder]]
738
739[[folder:Danzo Shimura]]
740!!Danzo Shimura
741
742One of Konoha's elders, and founder of Root. Has done many questionable things in his bid to pave his way to become Hokage.
743----
744
745* AdaptationalBadass: Downplayed. He's still way past his prime, but here he gains better control of his Wood Release thanks to Orochimaru's experiments [[spoiler:and using Rin's severed finger]].
746* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: Since he doesn't get the chance to implant Shisui's eye, he substitutes it [[spoiler:for one he took from Fugaku Uchiha, who has a different Mangekyo Sharingan with access to [[DoppelgangerAttack Okuninushi]] instead of Kotoamatsukami]].
747* AdaptationalVillainy: Played with. Most of his crimes are things that he actually did in canon, they just never came to light there until after his death. [[spoiler:Also the one major thing he does here that he didn't do in the manga (leaking the location of the jinchūriki to Akatsuki) was only due to being under mind control.]]
748* AmbitionIsEvil: Like in canon, he's willing to do ''anything'' to pave the way to become Hokage.
749* TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler:He's brought back as an Edo Tensei zombie by Orochimaru during the Fourth Ninja War.]]
750* CrazyPrepared: He devised counters to just about all of his subordiante's techniques on the off chance that they betrayed him [[spoiler:including Yakumo's otherwise inescapable genjutsu.]]
751* DeathIsCheap: Like in canon, he invokes this trope by spamming Izanagi with the Sharingan eyes implanted in his right arm, using them to resurrect himself every time he takes an otherwise lethal attack.
752* {{Hypocrite}}: When Hiruzen calls him out on his actions weakening Konoha rather than strengthening it, he has the gall to call Hiruzen on not killing Orochimaru when he had the chance. Nevermind that he willingly collaborated with Orochimaru, especially to get plenty of BioAugmentation himself.
753* IDidWhatIHadToDo: When he's confronted about his actions by Shizune and Shisui, he states that "he'll always do what is right for Konoha" no matter what others believe of him.
754* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: He gets away scot-free about having stolen Shisui's eye, due to said eye getting stolen from him as well. Karma eventually catches up to him when his treachery with Konoha is exposed, forcing him to escape with Orochimaru, [[spoiler:and shortly after Obito uses a Kotoamatsukami-induced TriggerPhrase to make him kill himself once he's fulfilled his purpose]].
755* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:After using and discarding many people to further his own ambitions, he's forced to commit suicide under mind-control once [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness he's of no more use to Obito]]]].
756* LaserGuidedKarma: Considering that he spent his life using people like puppets to push forward his personal ambitions, [[spoiler:being brought back as an Edo Tensei zombie and used as a puppet is a rather fitting punishment]].
757* MoreThanMindControl: Played with. [[spoiler:Obito used Kotoamatsukami to implant an idea in Danzo's subconscious, of letting Akatsuki gather the Tailed Beasts in one place so they could take them back for Konoha, playing up on the man's personal ambitions to undermine the village's efforts with him none the wiser. But he still implanted a TriggerPhrase to activate full control once he had fulfilled his purpose]].
758* PsychicAssistedSuicide: [[spoiler:Obito uses a Kotoamatsukami-induced TriggerPhrase to make him blow himself up [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness after he delivers him one of Nagato's Rinnegan eyes]].]]
759* UnwittingPawn: His preferred M.O, like in canon. [[spoiler:Ironically, he ends up on the receiving end from Obito Uchiha, who implants a small idea into his mind and lets his personal ambitions do the rest to undermine Konoha from the inside]].
760[[/folder]]
761
762!Root
763
764[[folder:Sai]]
765!!Sai
766
767A Root agent who worked as a spy for Danzo, eventually surrendering himself after the latter's treachery on Konoha was exposed.
768----
769* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: He's introduced during the Kirigakure Civil War arc (which takes place during the TimeSkip), as opposed to afterwards.
770* ArtImitatesLife: Like in canon, his primary form of combat involves painting ink creatures and bringing them to life.
771* DatingCatwoman: He was still a member of Root when he and Ino started dating.
772* DefusingTheTykeBomb: Ino actively tries to undo his conditioning to help him rediscover his repressed emotions, something that he notes to Danzo while giving his reports. [[spoiler:It ultimately ends up saving his life, since his growing self-preservation instinct keeps him from rushing Ino during the raid on Root HQ after she catches him in a trap.]]
773* DemotedToExtra: While he does play a role in the Root arc, he never becomes a major character due to him and Naruto not being teammates.
774* NoSocialSkills: Being under Root's training for so long will do that.
775* WeaksauceWeakness: Powerful as his ink creatures may be, [[KillItWithWater they're easily washed away by a Water Release jutsu]].
776[[/folder]]
777
778[[folder:Yakumo Kurama]]
779!!Yakumo Kurama
780
781A former student of Kurenai, with a bloodline limit capable of making genjutsu so powerful that it's virtually real. She was presumed dead along with her parents when she accidentally set her house on fire years ago.
782----
783* AdaptationalHeroism: Her filler arc in the anime showed her as antagonistic towards Kurenai, due to being LockedOutOfTheLoop as to why she sealed her powers. Here, however, she only fights Kurenai because [[TrappedInVillainy Danzo is forcing her]], under fear for her own life as well as the lives of innocents she might end up hurting should her powers go out of control.
784* AdaptationalLateAppearance: Her anime counterpart was introduced during Part I filler. Here, she doesn't show up until after the TimeSkip.
785* DoNotCallMePaul: Inverted when she faces Edo Tensei!Danzo during the Fourth Ninja War. When he calls her "Akuma" (her former Root codename), she becomes enraged and refuses to be called that way.
786* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: She is a MasterOfIllusion who doesn't have much in the way of physical strength or stamina, [[spoiler:and ends up married to one of the greatest hand-to-hand combatants on the planet.]]
787* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She went through this when her powers went out of control and killed her parents. This made her easy prey for Danzo to recruit her into Root, in exchange for the means to control them to avoid killing innocents again.
788* MyMasterRightOrWrong: {{Subverted|Trope}}. At first she seems to be loyal to Danzo like the other Root agents. However, she ultimately confesses to Kurenai that she despises the man, and the only reasons she serves him are a mix of desperation [[PowerIncontinence to control her powers]], and fear for her own life because [[ResignationsNotAccepted those who wanted out ended up dead]].
789* NeverFoundTheBody: Only the corpses of her parents were retrieved from their house fire, while she was taken in by Danzo and Root for several years.
790* NoSell: Not even the Sharingan is able to break through her genjutsu.
791* PowerIncontinence: Her powers are difficult to control, and in one instance it caused her to kill her parents. Danzo exploits this to keep her on a leash, by offering her the means to keep them under control to avoid harming innocents.
792* RecessiveSuperGenes: Just like in the anime, the Kurama clan's bloodline limit is mentioned to only shows up once every couple of generations. [[spoiler:She's actually happy that neither of her children ended up inheriting it [[BlessedWithSuck due to all the trouble it had caused her both directly and indirectly]].]]
793* SelfMadeOrphan: An accidental example. She killed her parents in a fire when her powers went out of control.
794* SquishyWizard: She primarily relies on her powerful genjutsu to fight. As a result, her taijutsu skills are rather lacking. [[spoiler:Her attempt to avert this by training under Rock Lee is what leads to their eventual marriage in the epilogue.]]
795* TeacherStudentRomance: Her romance with her husband [[spoiler:Lee]] started while he was acting as her fitness instructor.
796* ThatManIsDead: When she confronts Kurenai, she says "the girl [she] trained is no more". Kurenai however can tell Yakumo doesn't believe that herself.
797* TrappedInVillainy: After she accidentally set her house on fire and killed her parents, Danzo took her in and forced her to work as a Root agent against her will.
798* YourMindMakesItReal: The Kurama's bloodline limit casts illusions so powerful they can cause real damage. Of course, this is a double-edged sword; see PowerIncontinence above.

817* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler:He's killed by Mikoto during the Uchiha Insurrection instead of the Ten Tails' blowing up the Allied Shinobi Forces HQ.]]
818* HonoraryUncle: Due to the fact that their three clans have been close allies for generations, both Shikamaru and Choji viewed him as an uncle. [[spoiler:Both of them were devastated by his death, almost as much as his own daughter.]]

827* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:In canon, he was the only member of his Ino-Shika-Cho trio to survive the entire story. Here, he's killed by Kimimaro during the Fourth Ninja War arc, albeit far away from the front lines]].

837* BattleCouple: During the Fourth Ninja War, she fights alongside Yūgao as part of the team protecting the jinchūriki.
838* HappilyMarried: To Yūgao.
839* SparedByTheAdaptation: With Suna remaining a loyal ally to Konoha, he never gets killed from discovering a conspiracy.

843!!Yūgao Uzuki
844
845----
846* ActionMom: She continues her Anbu duties while acting as Haku's foster mother as well as after Seiichi is born.
847* BattleCouple: During the Fourth Ninja War, she fights alongside Hayate as part of the team protecting the jinchūriki.
848* FosteringForProfit: Downplayed. She and Hayate did accept Jiraiya's offer to raise Haku in part due to the money he offered (since they wanted to buy a house for themselves), but they also thought it'd be good parenting practice as they planned to marry and have a family of their own.
849* HappilyMarried: To Hayate.
850* SoProudOfYou: She couldn't actively show support for Haku during the Chunin Exams, seeing as she was serving as the proctor for the exam and had to remain impartial, though her pride for him still shines through on two occasions (quietly congratulating him when he beats Lee in the preliminaries and giving a small smile when he shows off his swordfighting skill against Sasuke in the finals).

871* DisneyDeath: She's among the casualties during Pain's invasion, and revived after his defeat.
872* SadistTeacher: She's sort of a weird combination of this and a SternTeacher for [[spoiler:the sound trio]], someone who enjoys their suffering far more than what would be considered healthy but at the same time likes them and wants to help them grow.

897* DemotedToExtra: He doesn't appear in the main story until the very end, when he attends the funeral of his grandfather after the Fourth Ninja War, and his team is only given a passing mention when Hanabi's is going through the Chunin exams. He's the {{Deuteragonist}} of the Hanabi Gaiden sidestory, though.
898* PlatonicLifePartners: With Hanabi.

902[[folder:'''SPOILER CHARACTER''']]
903!!Rin Nohara
904
905Kakashi's former teammate, who came BackFromTheDead after Obito Uchiha resurrected her.
906----
907* BackFromTheDead: She was used to test the viability of [[spoiler:Madara Uchiha's]] resurrection process.
908* CameBackStrong: The process that Obito used to revive her gave her an incredibly powerful HealingFactor, Wood Release, and allowed her to survive entirely on water.
909* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:During the final battle, Madara gets fed up with her interference and, since Obito turned on him, decides to kill her off. Obito uses his own life force to bring her back to life (along with the deceased jinchūriki)]].
910* EatingOptional: She no longer requires food to sustain herself, only water.
911* FaceYourFears: She ends up facing off against the ninjas who had kidnapped her when they're resurrected by Orochimaru during the Fourth Ninja War. The process proves to be [[InUniverseCatharsis very cathartic for her]].
912* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Takes some time to adapt to her new life, since the village changed a lot since the last time she saw it, and all her friends are pushing thirty while she's still a young teen.
913* GreenThumb: The process that brought her back to life involved Hashirama's cells, so it granted her Wood Release.
914* HealingFactor: Thanks to Hashirama's DNA spliced with her own, she can even regrow lost limbs.
915* IntergenerationalFriendship: Partly due to her closeness to Kakashi (being former teammates), she finds it easy to get along with his students. The fact they're close in terms of biological age also helps.
916* WalkingSpoiler: Her resurrection is a major plot twist, hence why her name is spoiler-tagged.
917[[/folder]]
918
919[[folder:Deceased Characters]]
920!!Hashirama Senju
921
922The founder and First Hokage of Konoha. He is Tsunade's grandfather, and thus Naruto's great-grandfather via adoption.
923----
924
925* BackFromTheDead: Twice over, like in canon; first during the Sound Invasion, and later again during the Fourth Ninja War.
926* TheDreaded: To Chomei, Gyuki, and Kurama, due to him being responsible for capturing them without much effort.
927* GreenThumb: His Wood Release is one of his best known (and coveted) abilities.
928* HeelFaceBrainwashing: On the receiving end. Shisui uses Kotoamatsukami on him in order to break Orochimaru's control, forcing him to release him.
929* HumbleHero: He's flattered to hear that he was "mentioned" in Konoha's history books despite being [[FounderOfTheKingdom the founder of the village]].
930* MasterOfAll: This is why Hashirama is touted as a "[[RedBaron God of Shinobi]]", as while he is mainly known for his Wood Release, he is a master at preforming [[ElementalPowers all five basic elements]], [[HealingHands medical ninjutsu]], [[MasterOfIllusion Genjutsu]], and [[MultiMeleeMaster bukijutsu]].
931* SoProudOfYou: He expresses joy over the fact that Tsunade was able to move past all her trauma and build a happy life for herself.
932
933!!Mito Uzumaki
934The First Hokage's wife and Kurama's first jinchūriki.
935----
936
937* AdaptationExpansion: She's never shown in battle during canon, thus her power as a member of the Uzumaki Clan is mostly an InformedAbility. However, she gets to show her credentials during the Fourth Ninja War, [[spoiler:taking the team efforts of ''three'' jinchūriki to bring her down]].
938* BackFromTheDead: Unlike in canon, she is brought back with Impure World Resurrection [[spoiler:to capture Naruto, Fu, and Killer B.]]
939* BattleCouple: Albeit unwillingly, she gets to fight briefly alongside her husband when they're brought back from the dead.
940* CradlingYourKill: [[spoiler:After being forced to kill Hiruzen, she cradles his corpse while crying out his name.]]
941* DisappointedInYou: Implied. While she isn't shown doing anything other than call him an idiot and shoot him a glare, she's clearly furious with all the shady things her old student Danzo has gotten up to since her death.
942* MaamShock: She takes offense at Fu calling her "old".
943
944!!Tobirama Senju
945
946The Second Hokage of Konoha, and Hashirama's younger brother.
947----

951* MakingASplash: He specializes in Water Release jutsu.
952
953!!Minato Namikaze
954
955The Fourth Hokage of Konoha and Naruto's biological father.
956----
957
958* AdaptedOut: Neither him nor his wife take part during the story's final arc in the Fourth Ninja War.
959* BattleCouple: Albeit unwillingly, he fights alongside Kushina when they're brought back as Edo Tensei zombies. Their chakra remnants also fight alongside Naruto (and Hinata) while they're helping him tame Kurama.
960* InstantExpert: He was never able to add elemental chakra to the Rasengan during his lifetime. However, when brought back as a zombie, all it takes it Jiraiya mentioning casually that a Shadow Clone does the trick, and he does it ''on the first try''.
961* ShockAndAwe: He uses an elemental Lightning Release Rasengan to fight Jiraiya's Fire Release one.
962
963!!Kushina Uzumaki
964
965Kurama's second jinchūriki and Naruto's biological mother.
966----
967
968* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: She's brought back as an Edo Tensei zombie during Orochimaru's invasion of Konoha. In canon, she didn't show up in person until Naruto was undergoing his jinchūriki training.
969* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: When expressing pride over Naruto's accomplishments, she puts specific focus on the fact that he has a cute girlfriend.
970* BackFromTheDead: Unlike in canon, she's brought back alongside the previous Hokage during Orochimaru's invasion of Konoha.
971* BattleCouple: Albeit unwillingly, she fights alongside Minato when they're brought back as Edo Tensei zombies. Their chakra remnants also fight alongside Naruto (and Hinata) while they're helping him tame Kurama.
972* BestFriendsInLaw: It's implied that she was friends with Hinata's mother prior to her death, given how she refers to her as "Hikari-chan". Prior to Naruto's birth, she had theorized that he would end up with her best friend Mikoto's second child, but that never came to pass (this was before she found out that Sasuke was a boy).
973* FieryRedhead: Oh yeah.
974
975!!Maito Dai
976
977Maito Gai's late father, who died taking on the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
978----
979
980* NeverAcceptedInHisHometown: [[DyingMomentOfAwesome His final act of taking on all seven of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist by himself]] is apparently very well known among the world at large, yet he appears to be all but forgotten in his home village. Sasuke, a Konoha native, has never even heard of the guy and doubts the validity of the story when Karui tells him.
981* PosthumousCharacter: He is unique among the characters in this folder in that he is never revived as an Edo Tensei zombie.
982* RememberWhenYouBlewUpASun: Any time other characters mention him, it's always in reference to him taking on the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
983
984!!Sakumo Hatake
985
986Kakashi's late father, who committed suicide after being disgraced from a failed mission.
987----
988
989* AdaptationalLateAppearance: In canon, he meets his son in limbo during the Invasion of Pain. Here, he doesn't show up until the Fourth Ninja War.
990* AdaptationExpansion: Despite being touted as a ninja on pair with the Sannin in canon, [[InformedAbility his abilities were never showcased]]. Here, he gets to show them off when he battles his son during the Fourth Ninja War.
991* BackFromTheDead: He's brought back as part of Orochimaru's Impure World Resurrection army.
992* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: Eventually finds closure when his son agrees with his choice of comrades over mission, causing him to be released from the Impure World Resurrection.
993
994!!Dan Kato
995
996Shizune's late uncle, and Tsunade's first love.
997----
998
999* AstralProjection: His signature jutsu allows him to leave his body, passing through physical barriers to attack his foes.
1000* BackFromTheDead: Like in canon, he's brought back as part of Orochimaru's army of reanimations.
1001* ForWantOfANail: Instead of Tsunade, he ends up facing his niece Shizune during the Fourth War.
1002* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: While he's a bit dismayed to learn that Tsunade married another man, he's glad to know she's had a happy life.
1003* SoProudOfYou: He's visibly amazed when Shizune displays her strength during their battle, remarking that not even Tsunade was that strong as he recalled.
1004* VillainOverride: Orochimaru takes direct control of him to prevent Shizune from taking advantage of Impure World Resurrection's [[TalkingTheMonsterToDeath most glaring weakness]].

1014* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Boruto got his blonde hair from his father, Himawara is a blunette like her mother, and Urara got red hair from her paternal grandmother.
1015* ABoyAGirlAndABabyFamily: Urara is only about a year and a half at the time of the epilogue.
1016* FanCreatedOffspring: Urara didn't exist in canon.
1017* ImplausibleHairColor: Urara having inherited the traditional red hair of the Uzumaki clan is noted as being strange in-universe (not to mention genetically impossible in real life since her mother's side of the family only has black, browns, and blues).
1018* InSpiteOfANail: Despite Neji being alive by the end of the war and the epilogue, Naruto and Hinata still decide to name their son Boruto.
1019* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: There's a 10-11 year gap between Boruto and Urara.
1020

1022
1023The daughter of Itachi and Natsu.
1024----
1025
1026* FanCreatedOffspring: Her parents never interacted in canon.
1027* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: Neither Itachi nor Natsu are the type to brag about their abilities, while she is noted to love to remind everyone about her power.
1028* SmugSuper: Having inherited both of her parents' Bloodline Limits as well as her father's natural talent, she has quite the ego.
1029* SuperpowerLottery: Her right eye is a Sharingan and her left is a Byakugan. Bear in mind that a child inherited a Bloodline Limit from both parents is ''very'' rare in-universe.[[note]]Mei (the only other major example in the series), has three older siblings who only got one of their parents' powers, and only two of her own six children inherited both of hers.[[/note]]
1030
1031!!Sarada Uchiha

1033The only daughter of Sasuke and Sakura.
1034----
1035* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: All three of her older cousins are highly talented ninja (and in the case of Naoki, lucked out on the SuperpowerLottery), leaving her wondering if she can measure up to them.
1036
1037!!Neji and Karin's children.
1038
1039The children of Neji and Karin.
1040----
1041* FanCreatedOffspring: Their parents never interacted in canon, with their father in particular having died in his teens.

1049* FamilyThemeNaming: They both have names relating to snow.
1050* FanCreatedOffspring: Their parents never met in canon, and their father died in his teens.
1051* GenerationXerox: Miyuki is paired together with Boruto as a member of the assault squad, much like their fathers were. Sarada theorizes that it probably wasn't a coincidence.
1052* AnIcePerson: Both of them inherited their father's Ice Release.
1053* StrongFamilyResemblance: Miyuki is described as looking almost identical to Haku when he was her age.
1054
1055!!Metal and Tetsuko Lee
1056
1057The children of Lee and Yakumo. Metal is the elder of the two by three years.
1058----
1059* FamilyThemeNaming: They have a metallic theme. Metal's name is obvious, while one of the spellings for Tetsuko contains the character for "Iron".
1060* FanCreatedOffspring: Metal is an only child in canon.
1061* RelatedInTheAdaptation: While Metal's mother is never specified in canon, it almost certainly isn't Yakumo due to her status as a CanonForeigner.

1064
1065The daughter of Kiba and Tamaki.
1066----
1067* TheBeastmaster: She uses both a ninja dog ''and'' and ninja cat as her battle partners.
1068* FanCreatedOffspring: While her parents are a couple in canon, they don't have any children.

1074----
1075
1076!!Shikadai and Kazane Nara
1077
1078The children of Shikamaru and Temari. Shikadai is the elder of the two.
1079----
1080* FanCreatedOffspring: Shikadai is an only child in canon.
1081* GenreSavvy: Shikadai already figured that he was going to be paired with Chocho and Inojin before the teams were announced, given their families had already been paired up for the past sixteen generations.
1082* MythologyGag: Canon Shikamaru had mentioned how he wanted a son then a daughter, but only had one child. Here he actually gets his wish.

1089!!Mitsuki
1090
1091A transfer student from Otogakure, and the son of its leader.
1092----
1093* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Very downplayed. He was an artificial human in canon, but a natural human here.
1094* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Due to his father being a clone of Hagane, he is now a descendant of the Senju and Uzumaki clans, the biological grandson of Jiraiya and Tsunade, and is Naruto's adoptive nephew.
1095* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: He was created by Orochimaru, using his own DNA. Here, Mitsuki is only indirectly related to him, since Orochimaru was the one who created Mitsuki's biological father.
