At
first glance, the Leaf Village appears to be maintaining
the peace with a military strength that dominates other
nations...
However, beneath the surface, a crisis is
drawing near.
Troubling incidents recur near the village, and Orochimaru
is
clearly seeking to destabilize it through various
wicked plots. In response, the village leaders decide they
must temporarily
rely on an extreme measure.
In order to supplement a military strength that is running
short, Genin, who would normally
be assigned C-rank
missions or lower, are now given more difficult missions,
according to their ability.
Thus, even
the youngest Genin are burdened with a portion
of the village's fate. Some struggle with the weight of the
responsibility,
while others are thrilled, feeling this a
chance to prove their abilities.
No more so than Naruto Uzumaki!
After
the conversation with Kakashi, you are given the
option to practice the basic controls. If it is your first
time playing,
I strongly suggest you practice. I will not
be teaching basics later on, so get the knowledge now while
you can.
Hidden
Leaf Village Gate
Every time you enter here your Health and Stamina are
automatically refilled. This is where you
will also save
your game 95% of the time. At any time you can press start
to enter the 'Camp' screen. Select abilities
to spend your
gold Virtue orbs on either raising health, raising stamina,
or obtaining new skill chips. See Section
2: Skill System
for more detail.
Also from here, you can go to Hokage's Room to start a
mission. Missions progress
the game, and are ranked
according to difficulty. D, C, B, A, and S. The lower the
grade, the easier the mission. You
can always leave the
village to get stronger before taking on the next mission,
except before Mission 1.
Keep in
mind that some Missions can be failed, but you
still continue the game. If you fail you cannot retry the
mission, and
the rewards are lost.
*~ MISSION 1: Delivery Service - RANK: D ~*
Transport food items from the Hidden
Leaf Village to
Tanzaku Town and deliver them to the waiting trader. You
may be attacked in transit, so be careful.
These
missions are a real pain in the butt later on in the
game. You will move from one town to another, and encounter
a number
of battles. The hard part is protecting the cart
from enemies destroying them. This first mission should be
easy. Be
sure to save before leaving the village.
Once on the main map, move the Kunai pointer to the red
dot, Tanzaku Town.
This will automatically set you on the
shortest route to your destination. The main map is where
you will trigger random
encounters with several ninja
throughout the game, and during a mission a short path is
the safest path.
When you
reach the first mid-point, you will start your
first encounter. After the scene the rules will be shown,
4 minutes and
the cart, both carried over until the end of
the mission.
Power Strike(R2) is the best way to bust up these low-level
enemies.
Always bust up the ones closest to the cart to
minimize damage. Check the radar to see where enemies are
hiding, there's
one tool ninja in a corner chucking ninja
stars at the cart and you. After crunching them, you'll
wind up back on the
main map. Select the red destination
again. It's the same group of punks! Use the same method
to subdue them. Now back
to the map, and one more feeble
attempt. After three battles, you arrive at Tanzaku Town.
Select the town while standing
on it to enter.
MISSION COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +200
Reward ~ Rations Cx5
After completing the mission,
you automatically return to
Hidden Leaf Village. See the note, New Skill Chips? That
means that there are new chips
to purchase!
Suggested Setup ~
Skill Plate: Baby Leaf
Skill Chips: Tai-Attack + 2
Drain Effect
Stamina
Up (S)
Defense + 2
Summary: The reason this works well is because you
can buy all of these skill chips
immediately
after Mission 1, and you get
bonuses for having the entire Skill Plate
filled.
If Mission 1 was a challenge,
you can leave the village
and roam the map for some practice before attempting the
next mission.
*~ MISSION
2: Shop Assistant - Rank: D ~*
A request for help has come from the only source of Ninja
Tools in the village,
"Emporium Karin". Go to the shop,
learn the owner's situation, and help restore the business.
You'll have a scene
explaining the mission. Your orders are
basically to kick butt and advertise. You'll receive a
number of free Ninja
Tools(see Section 3 for details). Have
fun with them, but save anything that has a fire attribute.
Remember to save
and leave the village.
Out on the main map, head south-east first, and you'll
encounter some outlaws. Very low-level
enemies, just bust
them up with Taijutsu combos and Power Strike. Use this
mission to become acquanted with the game.
You need to
defeat 9 or more groups of outlaws, then return to Konoha
Village. Select the Ask Around option. If the
scene shows
a positive result, go to the General Store; if not, then
go fight a couple more battles and check again.
MISSION
COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +400
Reward ~ Recovery
*~ MISSION 3: The Missing Tamasaburo - Rank: C ~*
The
famous Tamasaburo candy has suddenly disappeared from
shops. The village sweet-tooths are in an uproar, and Anko,
the elite Jonin, has taken ill from shock. Find the
Tamasaburo in order to restore her health.
Head for the first
destination marker and enter East Town.
After the short scene, head for the next destination,
Tanzaku Town. Now to find
the candy maker, in South Town.
After the scene, you now have your first combat ally, Choji.
Head south to the new area
on the main map, Honeydew Mtn.
When the first ninja attacks, bust him up quick. As soon as
he's defeated, four more
pop out. You can use Choji now,
but he's not necessary. After the scene you'll be in a free
roam/battle. It's not necessary
to defeat all or any enemies
to complete the event. Although, you need to prepare for the
first boss battle coming up,
and having Nine-Tails ready is
probably a good idea. Use Power Strike on groups of enemies
to rack up some good combos,
which fill the Nine-Tails
gauge. When the symbol in the bottom left is bright red, and
on fire or shining(whichever),
it's ready. The new enemy
female ninjas can be difficult. Remember to constantly
double-tap X to dash around, and if
you dash directly at an
enemy and immediately attack, you can get a quick combo. If
they are giving you a lot of trouble,
Power Strike will take
them out without too much trouble.
After following all around the cliff, the only path heads
up
to the left. There is a giant boulder, and when you get
close, two female ninja appear. Beat them down then look
at
the boulder. Switch to Choji(L2), and use his Human Boulder
Ninjutsu(R1). Roll/pummel the boulder and it will eventually
crumble.
Before heading in, follow the path left of the
boulder to find a chest with some Medicine Cs. These will be
helpful
soon. Head through the path opened by destroying the
boulder to find the Honeydew plant. Return to South Town,
and watch
the scene. Now head towards Leaf Village. Before
long, you'll enter what appears to be a random encounter.
BOSS
BATTLE: Choji Akimichi
First off, lock on and strafe away, as he'll use Human
Boulder immediately. If your health is
already below 1/2,
activate the Nine-Tails chakra(Triangle and Circle). This is
easy, smash away at Choji and use whatever
techniques you
wish. His Human Boulder cannot be blocked or broken, so stay
away from it. Being the first boss, he's
very slow and
predictable. Use a Medicine C after you use Nine-Tails and
wail on him with Jutsu when he's vulnerable.
You should blow
him away with Nine-Tails though, no sweat. The Virtue is nice,
but MAKE SURE to grab the Dual As he
drops.
MISSION COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +500
Reward ~ Kunai
With the new Kunai Skill Plate you just received,
it's time to
get stronger. Empty out the Baby Leaf plate and equip the Kunai
plate. There are a number of things you
could do now that were
impossible with the Baby Leaf.
Suggested Setup ~
Skill Plate: Kunai
Skill Chips: Health
Up (S)
Health Up (L)
Tai-Attack + 1
Tai-Attack + 2
Drain Effect
Stamina Up (S)
Defense + 2
Defense
+ 3
Nin-Attack + 10
Recovery
Summary: This setup is well-balanced, and will
work great for any beginner.
You get a
great boost in Health from this and
all stats are up to a fairly decent
level. Attaining the Nin-Attack
+ 30%
is what places this setup above others.
*~ MISSION 4: Fragile - Do Not Break - Rank: C ~*
Transport
goods from the Hidden Leaf Village to Border Town and
deliver them to the Trader who is waiting. The cargo this time
is very easily damaged, so be careful.
Don't get hasty and leave too quick, because you can now Form A
Team. Choji
is the only current option, so take him along. Save
and now leave the village.
The map has expanded again, revealing
Border Town. Head to Border
Town to begin the encounters. There is a new big enemy this time.
Fully charged Power Strike
can jack anyone with your high amount
of Nin-Attack with my suggested setup... but does consume a
large amount of Stamina.
This is the first really challenging
mission, and may take a couple of attempts. It's not necessary
to pass. When you
arrive in Border Town you're finished.
MISSION COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +650
Reward ~ Medicine Cx5
*~ MISSION
5: Sensei for a Day - Rank: C ~*
Due to the number of incidents recently, many Academy
instructors are busy with
missions. Graduates are being sought
to fill in while the teachers are out and help train the
younger students.
For
this mission you will need the Air Dash chip. If using the
suggested setup, replace the Defense + 3 chip with this one.
Now
save and leave the village. Head right to the East Forest, and
enter. When the exercise starts, run straight and
jump from the
ledge, and Air Dash to the raised island. Head left off of it
and get the tag on top of the rock by the
ramp. Head up the ramp
and grab another on the right. Jump off the edge of the ramp and
run straight to the next one
on the wall. Turn around and there
will be one on the backside of the ramp. Run past the ramp and
then take a hard right
so you're between the island and the start.
There's one on the wall. Head towards the circle of trees and get
the one
on the trunk. One tree has one on it. Follow around the
right and the rest are easily visible. The last one will be back
at
the entrance, and once you reach the entrance, you win...
Not yet!
BOSS BATTLE: Neji Hyuuga
Neji is very
scary when you first think about it, given his 8
Trigrams 64 Palms jutsu. First change that Air Dash back for the
Defense
+ 3. Charge up a Power Strike while dashing to stay out
from his direct front. He shouldn't be able to hit with 8 Trigrams
64
Palms, and continue to bash with the Power Strike. If you run
out of Stamina just do regular combos. Nine-Tails will end
this
battle in a flash.
MISSION COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +700
Reward ~ Orb Absorb
Suggested Setup ~
Skill
Plate: Kunai
Skill Chips: Health Up (S)
Health Up (L)
Tai-Attack + 2
Tai-Attack + 4
Defense + 3
Nin-Attack
+ 10
Nin-Attack + 20
Summary: This will help us to finally cause some real
damage to enemies. The super-high
Nin-Att of
+ 39 is unreal considering how early in the
game we are! Tai-Att + 8 is double the last
setup. We
do take a Stamina loss, but the
gained power is far more valuable. If you
haven't done so, use some virtue to raise
your
Health and Stamina permanently. I gave
my Health 30 and my Stamina 10. My maximum
Health is now 200 and Stamina
110. Very nice.
*~ KAKASHI'S SPECIAL DRILL ~*
What? No more missions? Save the game and leave the village.
East
Town is marked with a destination marker... what's going on? Go
to East Town. Watch the scene and go to Lone Pine
Hill, now
revealed on the main map. Now you'll begin a fun bit of Sparring
Practice. The most important thing here is
to USE YOUR ALLY.
The first match will be you and Shikamaru vs Sasuke and Choji.
Focus on one or the other. Choji
can be beaten quickly, and
Sasuke causes you more damage. Use Shikamaru's Shadow Possession
Jutsu (R2), which will trap
one or both. Then mash the circle
button to throw a bunch of kunai. His Trap Kunai can be effective
as well. With Naruto,
a fully charged Power Strike with + 39
Nin-Att is really a powerful strike! Remember to grab the Dual
As from each downed
opponent!
Next will be you and Choji vs Sasuke and Shikamaru.
Try and focus on Shikamaru, his traps and Shadow
Possession will
leave you wide open for Sasuke's long combos. Lock on and use
Choji's Human Boulder Jutsu(R1). His Partial
Expansion Jutsu isn't
very useful in this battle. This one was considerably difficult
for me. Just be sure and USE YOUR
ALLY.
If you used your teammates well in battle, you'll receive:
MedicineC x 10
Not much, but it helps...
not to mention all the DualAs you
picked up! Now, back to the village!
*~ MISSION 6: The Hokage Dolls - Rank:
D ~*
Rumor has it that Hokage Dolls sold in the village are cursed,
as those who buy the doll inevitable seem
to meet with misfortune.
Gather the dolls and investigate the rumor. Kakashi will
accompany you.
Save, save,
save. Leave the village and head for Tanzaku Town.
After the scene you'll head to East Town to collect more dolls.
Last
stop for dolls, South Town. Now head to the Outskirts. After
the obvious scene, you'll start the battle. It may seem like
it'll
be an easy battle... which it kind of will be. After defeating a
few enemies, a whole bunch of tall strong enemies
will come. To
smash them easily, just switch to Kakashi and use Lightning Blade,
and the whole group will get jacked.
MISSION
COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +900
Reward ~ Chakra Bonus
*~ MISSION 7: Prisoner Escort I - Rank: C ~*
A wanted
ninja has been captured in Border Town. Take the prisoner
into custody and escort him to the Leaf Village. Attacks on
the
road by the prisoner's comrades are expected. Be careful.
Of all times you should save, now is DEFINITELY the
time. Before
taking off, Form A Team. My own personal preference is Sasuke and
Neji, but do as you please. Sasuke's
Chidori and Neji's 8 Trigrams
64 Palms are exceptionally strong techniques. Leave the village and
head for Border Town,
to the west. Enter and watch the scene. Now
for the mad rush back to the Leaf Village. Much like the Delivery
missions,
you have to protect the prisoner. Maybe I got you a
little worried. This first Prisoner Escort is actually easy. Just
use
common sense and stick close to the cart. If things get sticky,
call out one of your allies and take out whoever's causing
trouble.
Getting back shouldn't be too difficult. In the future remember
that these missions can be unpredictable and
sometimes extremely
difficult. Always save, no matter what. Then again, it's not even
necessary to complete it...
MISSION
COMPLETE!
Virtue ~ +1000
Reward ~ Dual Cx5
*~ MISSION 8: Bad Publicity - Rank: D ~*
Emporium Karin
is requesting advertising help again. Get the details
from the store owner and follow her instructions to carry out an
advertising campaign.
Female ninjas have been making a bad name for Emporium Karin... why?
God only knows. Just
like the last time you helped Karin, advertise
in style. Roam around and kick some butt. Another 10 battles, roughly,
should
do the trick. These Kunoichi have tendancy to dodge and
counter-attack. Using clones or Rasengan might be helpful. Remember
that
you can tap X right when an opponent attacks to use the
Replacement technique. Also, keep in mind that the Sexy and Harem
Jutsus are ineffective against females.
It's best to fight close to the Leaf Village, since you can stop there
between
battles to refill your Health and Stamina. After you've
fought a number of battles, enter the Leaf Village and select the
option
'Ask Around'. If you talk to Rock Lee (Bushy Brows), and he
says Emporium Karin is a nice shop, head to the General Store.
If
not, go fight some more.
MISSION COMPLETE!

Summary: Now we're really cooking. If you haven't
noticed already, I
tend to try and keep
Naruto well-rounded. At this point it's
easy to go for what you like best. If you
like
the special abilities, or maybe the
Naruto Uzumaki Barrage, you can go that
route. Play around with different setups
of
your own. This one required a little
bit of buying, but we're making a big
leap in power. Our Nin-Att is still the
solid
+39, and our Health at 200, unless
you upgraded it more. Tai-Att has made
a generous leap, going from +8 to +20.
Defense
for both Taijutsu and Ninjutsu
are raised favorably and our Stamina
has a boost +70 over the last setup. If
you
have enough Virtue, push your stamina
up to a max of 200.
*~ MISSION 9: Coastal Disturbances - Rank: B ~*
Information has come in that some suspicious men are gathered in
a coastal town. Sasuke has gone ahead to investigate;
meet up
with him and check things out.
Save and head far East to Port Town. Watch the scene. During this
fight
you can use Power Strike to build up some combos, and charge
the Nine-Tails gauge. Now Sasuke.
BOSS BATTLE: Sasuke
Uchiha
Sasuke is one major thing. FAST. If you haven't mastered dashing
and strafing, you better do it quick. To easily
beat him, fully
charge Power Strike repeatedly until you have no more stamina.
If your health is low, use a DualA. If
not, use Rations of some
and continue with the Power Strike attacks. When the Nine-Tails
symbol flashes and glows, let
your health drop below half and
unload on this fool. To beat him without Nine-Tails, conserverve
your Chakra for the
Replacement technique and try to end combos
with the Heavenwardly Kick to get double and sometimes triple
sets of combos.
As with all bosses, grab the DualAs he drops.
After the fight, watch the coolest cutscene so far. Kakashi
intervenes
and the mission is a success.
