I like weak to strong stories the most, but I can't read kingdom building novels.... They bore me I guess.

Should've added "as long as it doesn't plot or scheme for my own downfall" couldve been a nice potential story arc you could've gone through.
Did they have cameras in Naruto? Been a while since I watched it. Wouldn't they just use dog summons to sniff out criminals quickly? Especially since the suspect doesnt seem to be a ninja this time around. I thought Takuma was in the organised crime division not the homicide division, why is he at what seems to be an ordinary murder case?
Shikamaru isn't "just" smart... If you say Shikamaru is "just" smart than all the other charaters must be dumb. Kabuto, even at the start was a talented medi ninja that could use chakra scalpels offensively and was able to escape the hidden leaf. Never said Takuma needs a cheat, he just needs something he truly excells in.
He ain't just good tho, you can't be just good at taijutsu and keep up with all the ninjas who can use every other discipline along with taijutsu. If you need more examples tho, there is still neji with byakugan, tsunade with strength augmentation, shikamaru genius lvl tactician and shadow jutsu, they all have something unique.
