Yo, it's me the Author here. I figured I'd slap a 5* review on this here because I want one. It's not like most stories out there in some ways. It won't be heavily battle driven like some. It won't be a bunch of smut like others. It's just about the main character's true effort and sometimes manic struggle towards power. He will do so with a conscience though, in line with the original Naruto story. Hope you enjoy! (Even though it's pretty slow, especially the start.)

I will never understand why it's so hard to stay within the universe. Why cross over to others when there are already so many things within Naruto you could use!? That's yet another drop for me then I guess.

I mean. The system likely. It wasn't mentioned, but He likely got it when he got the four new affinities would be my guess.

Bruh...You clearly have enough chapters. If you had just uploaded enough for 15k words this could have been prevented. Instead you went the cringe and awful route of a word count chapter...when you already likely had posted 10k words 😑 At least you didn't make it a nonsense chapter, I'll give you credit for innovation. Since I read it using a scraper for good TTS, I only had to scrape this one chapter instead of the previous 10.

This is definitely machine translated, isn't it? Detonating talisman instead of Explosive tag? Yeah..

ahh...you're on mobile. Sorry, yeah it's not in the app.

Or of course just go into your own profile and check there. Not in the create part. Bit tired, forgot that that's how you usually do things.

It says so when you go to check what weekly ranking your story has. Since your test has such a common name it'd be hard to search for it, go into the story I just published and look below where you would give power stones. There is says that you need 15 000 words in order to be in the rankings.

Of course they know of such tactics. They're everywhere. And when you post, you know that it won't pop up in rankings until you have a high enough word count. The app literally says so when you go to check your stats. So before you give them the all clear, think about that part. They know that they need a certain amount of words FOR SURE. And they've likely seen it in other places (the word count chapters are everywhere if you follow the new releases). This is not a little known 'life-hack'. It's a common tactic used mainly by new creators or Chinese translators who don't have a large amount of chapters lying around. Most use it after like 4-5 chapters when they realise that their fic doesn't show up in rankings. But this creator had their very first chapter be a word count chapter..

I understand that you want to be lenient, but that word count chapter gives a lot more attention than a review like this can take away. They still gained something from it. If it's their 1st or 50th makes no difference in my eyes. People do this because they don't have enough chapters to post straight away, but they still want power stones to get validation and attention. I don't stand for that. You may see it as petty, and that's fine. I don't think it'll change anything. But it is something which makes me instantly lose respect for a writer.
