Naruto: The Outsider's Resolve

FictionOnlyReader
[A Naruto Fan Fiction] Make the best of what you have, they said... But what I am supposed to do when the best I have are red-eyed freaks, a child who's supposed to be the jailor of the most dangerous being in the world, a snake bastard with serious boundary issues, and a whole world of super soldiers with licences to murder. And you know the best part? None of them like me so much... Oh shut it, old man! Take that Will of Fire and shove it up your— Yeah, this second swing at life isn't panning out... --------------------------------------------------------------- What to expect: - Gradual strength progression. Meaningful growth. The MC is a normal guy dumped into the Narutoverse, starts out weak and has to work and struggle for everything he gains. - "Slow" paced. My writing style is a zoomed-in look camera that follows the protagonist. It might seem slow, but I ensure something is always happening to progress the plot forward. - Gritty and often bloody fights and actions scenes with a focus on taijutsu—you'll see individual combat, team fights, and large-scale battle. - A different take on the Narutoverse. The world is full of superhuman mercenaries with liscenes-to-kill—that along with the protagonist's struggles paint the world in a much darker light. - Additions and expansion to the "chakra" power system. I consider myself a conservative when it comes to adapting the power system—and aim to retain the original feel while highlighting the best parts. - The Outsider's Resolve version of Narutoverse uses the [Naruto Manga] as the base—with additions from anime, books, and even Boruto (though very less likely). --------------------------------------------------------------- DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/w5dJ82SfMr --------------------------------------------------------------- PATREON LINK: https://www.patreon.com/fictiononlyreader --------------------------------------------------------------- DECLARATION: This story is also present on: FFN, Ao3, SpaceBattles, SufficientVelocity, and ScribbleHub RoyalRoad [to be verified] --------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: I don't own any character other than my OCs.

#Read the Prologue!!! [CONTENT WARNING: This work is intended for an adult audience (18+). Contains explicit sexual content, visceral violence and dark psychological dynamics.] MAIN TAGS: #DualCultivation #Smut #DarkFantasy #Yandere #Harem #OverpoweredProtagonist #Violence #ObsessiveRomance #WorldBuilding SYNOPSIS: In a remote village far from the conflicts of the cultivation world, Zhì Yuǎn and Yù Qíng lived simple lives. He was a quiet young man with calloused hands and an unnatural clarity — someone who seemed to understand the truth behind things without ever needing to be taught. She was his wife, a woman whose love for him was deep, fierce, and dangerously absolute. When the two of them finally awaken to Qi, they do not follow the ancient paths or bow to the heavens like others. Instead, they create their own method — a path of Dual Cultivation that binds their bodies and souls together in a way that defies the natural order. What begins as survival and growth soon becomes something far more dangerous. Because the world outside their small village does not tolerate anomalies. As their power grows, so does the attention of ancient sects, powerful clans, and ambitious cultivators who would rather see them dead than let them rise. But what they fail to understand is that the real threat has never been Zhì Yuǎn alone. It has always been the woman standing beside him — the one willing to burn the world if it means protecting what belongs to her. Zhì Yuǎn was never meant to be a hero. He never received a divine mission or a heavenly mandate. He simply chose to walk forward. And Yù Qíng chose to make sure nothing would stand in his way.

Heavenly Transmigration: The Fallen Martial Emperor Climbs the Tower

At the peak of the martial path, Mu Jin had already achieved everything. He united the Central Plains, stood above righteous and demonic sects alike, and reached a realm no mortal body could contain. Then, on the day he was meant to ascend… He vanished. When Mu Jin opened his eyes again, he was no longer the emperor who had shaken the martial world. He was Lian — a dying young man from a ruined Earth, trapped inside the first trial of a mysterious Tower that had driven humanity to the brink of extinction. The world outside had already changed. Three colossal Towers had descended. The Surge had swallowed continents whole. Monsters roamed beyond the barriers. And humanity survived only by sending the chosen into the Tower’s brutal floors, where power could be earned only through blood, sacrifice, and despair. But Mu Jin has a problem. He did not inherit Lian’s talent. He did not receive a blessed Heaven-rank ability. And the godlike power he once possessed is gone. All he has left is: the mind of a man who once stood at the peak, a broken body that was never meant for greatness, and the Demonic Arts — a path that grows stronger the closer one walks to ruin. Now, in a world of false heroes, collapsing barriers, and trials cruel enough to break entire realms, Mu Jin must climb the Tower once again. Not as the emperor who had conquered his world. But as a nameless challenger starting from the very bottom. And this time… If he fails, he will lose far more than just his life.
