Hey guys, JMA here with another chapter of NU: Ninja Gamer. 400 Followers? I got a nice following for this story but I won't consider a story sucessful until I see it in the Ks. A lofty goal I know, but I know I can suceed. I was wondering: Why is this story so popular compared to my other ones? Please answer me that, I'm curious about it. Anyway, review time

Reviews:

Pushi19: I went on a hiatus because of family issues so I couldn't really do that. Sorry

merendinoemiliano: Thank you

Thanatos 2018: I'll be sure to tell him that.

Soulhope The Wolf:

1) Actually he is. He's served as Kage for basically his whole adult life until he died at 69 so pretty sure there is no one who outlasted him.

2) We'll discuss that

3) Lol. I will

:Dte.nellis: I will!

FinalKingdomHearts: And you've got it... eventually.

rogue killer naruto: Vannie Kaap

Those are all the reviews.

Hope you enjoy and please keep up the reviewing.

Recommendation: Your Name? by Bakufan15. A MHA well done romance adaption of a certain movie. I don't know about the movie, but I do know that this is one of my favourites. There is more info in the actual summary but what I can say is that it's really good and you guys should read it if you're looking for a good romance. It's also done so there's that too.

At the Academy

"The Leaf's standards must have really fallen since my attack to allow these weaklings to become ninja."

'I... got nothin' to say to that.'

What Naruto and the Nine Tails are commenting on are the levels of his fellow graduates. More specifically, how low their levels. After observing the ninth graduate (at which point, the Nine Tails started laughing for some weird reason, probably the weak levels), the Nine Tails came to said conclusion

Hey, on the bright side, observing them helped him level up the Observe Skill.

'Skills.'

Skills

Ninja Art - Substitution Jutsu (Active, Instant) [Level 22: If you don't want to tank an attack, why should you? Use this technique to substitute with a log, a pebble or even your brother if need be, to take the beating for you.

Ninja Art - Transformation Jutsu (Active, Gradual) [Level: MAX: You don't like how you look? Then change it! This technique allows you to imitate someone/something by transforming into them.

Requip (Active, Instant) [Level 7: Don't have the time to open the Inventory for an item? Then Requip it! This skill allows you to call items from the Inventory without opening it. Limited to Equipable Items, specifically Weapons.

Academy Taijutsu Style (Passive, Gradual) [Level 13: Basics kill, and nothing's more basic than a basic Taijutsu Style. This allows you to access the Academy Style Taijutsu. 5% Boost to all Physical Areas when using this style.

'So basically, now I can see the stats of the other Genin, oh and Chunin too?'

"Yes but very weak Chunin." The Nine Tails had to burst his bubble, didn't he. "Yes, yes I did."

'Hey!'

"Naruto? Why are you here? You didn't graduate." A loud voice brings him back before he can start ranting. Bringing his attention to the voice he sees Kiba, a fur jacket wearing kid with slited eyes and markings on his cheeks. He's from a clan of dogs last he checked.

"They're called the Inuzuka, last I checked." The Nine Tails deadpans.

"Shut up!" He screams, mostly to the Nine Tails but also to Kiba. "Can't you see the headband on my head, dog breath?!"

"Hey! You wanna go?!" At this point they both have a handful of each other's jacket.

"Naruto! Kiba! Settle down!" Iruka sensei screams out from the front of the classroom. When did he even get there? "We won't be starting fights now." They reluctantly back away from each other and go to seperate seats, Naruto still staring at Kiba.

"Observe."

"His stats are abysmal for a Genin of his attitude."

'Abysmal?'

"Seriously, how dumb can you be? It means bad, you brat. Even your stats are better than his."

'Yeah they ar-- Hey!'Yep, the Nine Tails takes every opportunity insult him that he gets.

"Compare your stats to his then."

'Fine then. Stats.'

'Woah, you're right. My stats are higher than his.'

"Don't get cocky brat. Just because you have higher stats doesn't mean you'll win the fight."

"Team 7," Iruka-sensei speaks up, bringing him out of his 'talk'. "Naruto Uzumaki," This is his team. Maybe he'll get Sakura, or even Hinata. He gets giddy just thinking about it. "Sakura Haruno," He lets out a loud "Yeah!" "and Sasuke Uchiha."

"What?!"/"What?!" They stuck him with the bastard, Sasuke Uchiha?! Why? He's so upset, he doesn't even notice the Nine Tails actually joined his outrage. "Why do I gotta be put with the bastard?!" Ignoring the outraged cries of "Don't call Sasuke a bastard!" he waits for Iruka-sensei's reply.

"Well Naruto, while you're not technically the Dead Last, you still do have bad grades so we put you with the Rookie of the Year and Kunoichi of the Year in the hopes that you might learn from them and they from you." Laughter erupts from the class and Naruto reddens in embarrasment. Even with his new Ninja Gamer status, he can't change that he still skipped most of his classes and slacked off. A humbling effect if he ever saw one.

"Well he's not lying so he believes what he says, but I don't trust that the idiots in charge put you with the Uchiha just because of that."

"Wait, what could I possibly learn from that idiot? He's the Dead Last." That was Sakura and Naruto feels a pang in his heart. Is that really how little she thinks of him? This adds on to the questions about his feelings. Bah! He'll think about it later. For now he'll just have to show her, won't he?

This was just what he was about to do anyway. Of course yes! The pop up disappears and Naruto turns his attention back to Iruka-sensei, only to hear that he's moved on to Team 8, which Hinata, Dog Breath and some other guy's a part of. Blocking out the rest, he remembers something.

'Damnit! I forgot to Observe my team!' Turning to Sakura, he mutters an Observe.

'That's it? And she says she can't learn from me?! Oh hell no! I'm not leaving my life in her hands as she is.'

Mind made up, he stomps over to Sakura, ignoring her loud voice and roughly grabs her wrist and walking out of the classroom, barely feeling her vain attempts to get out of his hold. In his determination, he fails to notice the pin dropping silence that overtook the classroom but, if he turned around at that moment, he would've seen the jaw dropping shock that the class, Iruka-sensei included was feeling.

End of Chapter 5

And that's done. Sorry this took so long but I've been struggling with this for a while. I had an idea to break the Fourth Wall initially, but decided against as shit don't fly that way. By the way, anyone got that reference I added in?

Have you guys seen the blatant plagurism that UchihaMadara1997 did of Reaching For A Dream by Noodlehammer. I know I have, so I started complaining about it. Then the naai decide to bring his brahse and insult my mother and sister. So I told him his ma se poes. I don't usually swear that crazy but he deserved it considering he hopes my mother and sister gets raped. Fuck that guy!

Anyway, sorrry about my language, just had to rant there.

And now for an Announcement: I have recently gotten an account on Wattpad and I decided to post this story there (Because of the poor quality of on that site) and I hope you guys support that. Hope you enjoyed and please review. Time for my shameless promotion of my other fics.

Other fics by JMA:

My Hero Academia: Devil Within - A fic where Izuku inherits the Devil Gene from Tekken and his subsequent adventures to become a hero. Not a crossover. (Being rewritten) Also now in my community Midoriya Izuku: A Hero of his own power.

The Impact Gamer - A Naruto Gamer fic set during the days of Minato and Co.'s childhood, with an OC Uzumaki cousin of Kushina added to spice things up.

Black and Green - My first attempt at a Romance is set in the My Hero Academia universe. After the Entrance Exam, Izuku has a heroic encounter with a less than nice girl.

JMA out.
