Five years after the Fourth Great Ninja War, in the peaceful Village Hidden in the Leaves, teenage go-getter Iroko Nakata dreams of surpassing his hero, Naruto Uzumaki, and becoming the ultimate ninja! As he teams up with the eccentric-for-a-sensei Hisao, the quirky Yuura Kairi, and the mysterious Asami Senju, Iroko competes with childhood rival Kazue Katsumi in a series of trials and ordeals that come with being a ninja! This Elsewhere Naruto fan fiction focuses on several OCs of my creation as I seek to expand the world of Naruto and try to create plausible events that would have occurred during the Blank Period and could (maybe) potentially co-exist with the canonical storyline. Disclaimer: I do not own the Naruto franchise or any part of it whatsoever, all rights go to their respective owners.This story is also on Wattpad and AO3 **Grief-Regret Arc is underway
