How do they know that he has nothing to do with the Nine-Tails though? A random villager wouldn't know about the existence of seals or anything that would help them understand that Naruto isn't the Kyuubi.

sasuke is a prodigy? Sasuke was far weaker than any of the other prodigies that came out of the Academy. Both Itachi and Kakashi were true prodigies, sasuke is just better than average at best.

I thought the discreetly observing the surroundings bit was about him checking out the office ladies outside the window in the previous chapter.

Can't it be argued since he has a max or high affinity with all natures it would display multiple affinities? There isn't a case of a person with the exact same level of affinity in two chakra natures which is why it only pops up as the strongest right?

Doesn't have 3 swords yet maybe.

Funnily enough, the protagonist smelling a pleasant fragrance is likely to mean that the two have highly varying genetics. A person's "fragrance" differs between the person smelling the fragrance due to people having different genetics (the closer you are to someone in genetic code, the less pleasant the fragrance is). Though, I believe this isn't confirmed in humans, the study I remember reading was done on rats and when performed on humans it had varying results.

This is just based on my understanding of what I've seen from my time reading, feel free to correct it if it's wrong.

A writer needs 15k words to be eligible for the rankings, then power stones determine your place on the rankings and using the rankings you can get more views which for most fan-fic authors means you can get more potential patreon subscriptions (though not all of them have patreons and some just like to see their fic getting a lot of views but, I'd say the main reason is that they can get some income from their fic, which is fair enough).

Could've been cool if either he named this form Apophis (Chaos incarnate in Egyptian Mythology) or if his fruit somehow evolved to become a mythical zoan with apophis. The second would break a lot of rules about one piece and would affect the story but I love egyptian mythology too much to leave that possibility out.

Still figuring out the pacing of the story, reading this back I understand that a little more description may help the story more than hinder it so, expect an edit somewhere along the lines if the pacing does seem to be unsuitable for the story's timeline. (Will try to remember to add that I've done an edit on a chapter in future author's notes).

Picture of the fic without the cup?

The statement is ambiguous though, it doesn't state what the 5 metres is being considered from. If it said within 5 metres of MC's body then it's 360, if it's 'within 5 metres of MC's FOV' then it's 180 only.

I'm confused about MC's tier magic, did he not receive it yet? If there was an explanation I might have skipped jt cuz I skim read a lot but I didn't see any explanation abt the spells he chose or him not being able to use it yet.

Better safe than sorry is one way you could describe the behaviour. It's unlikely that anyone will find out unless hiruzen tells people abt his FTG but why take that chance, hiruzen already trusts him and is giving practically everything he wants.
