Lets go ahead and get the question out of the way that burns in the head of
EVERY gamer: What characters do I get to play as?? This will aslo include the
jutsus for each character. ^_~
NARUTO UZUMAKI
R1 - Shadow Clone Jutsu
R2 - Rasangen
R1+R2 - Teh Sexy Jutsu
R1, then R1+R2 - Harem Jutsu
SHIKAMARU NARA
R1 - Kunai Trap ~When he's locked on, this results in a Fire Kunai. When he is
not locked on or facing anyone, he will plant Trap Kunai~
R2 - Shadow Possession Jutsu
Health - This is simple enough. It hits zero and you're toast, although as your
Health goes down, you can harness Kyuubi's (The Nine-Tailed Fox's)
power. You can use Virtue to increase your Health under Abilities
in the Start Menu
Stamnia - Focusing and restoring your Chakra takes up your Stamnia, but it can
be replenished by finding and picking up blue orbs. You can use
Virtue to increase your Stamina under Abilities in the Start Menu
Kyuubi (Nine-Tailed Fox) Gauge - This bar will grow redder and redder as you
combo and smack around your enemies. When your
Health gets low enough, you can press Circle
and Triangle together to become Kyuubi Naruto.
Your stamina will be unlimited, so jutsu your
little heart out.
Virtue - This is earned for defeating enemies and complete various missions.
Collect the yellow Virtue Orbs after an enemy dies to earn Virtue.
Virtue is used to purchase Skill Chips
Skill Chips - These are used to raise your stats and give your other abilities.
We will discuss these in a later section of this guide.
Treasure Hunting - Always search each level for treasure chests, as good things
come to those that search. I included this under the basics
as free stuff is always a good thing
Skill Plates are where you place your Skill Chips to bolster your stats or give
yourself new actions and abilities. You even get bonuses for filling out the
spaces in a Skill Plate, depending on how and with what you filled it.
BONUS LIST:

Blue - This will give you a 30% increase in Ninjutsu power
Green - This will give you a 50% increased resistance to being stunned
SKILL PLATE LIST:
-----------------
01.) Baby Leaf - Good for starters, but cannot hold large chips
02.) Kunai - Easy to fill for bonuses, but not a lot of breathing room
03.) Leaf - Holds larger and longer chips very, very well
04.) Toad - Good for certain chips, but not a ton of room
05.) Spiral - Handy for stat boosting chips and the such
06.) Nine-Tails - An all-around good plate, although some find it difficult to
fill out
07.) Shuriken - BIG plate, but awkward for some of the larger chips
Taijutsu Chips - These are red. They raise your physical attack power, reduce
your damage taken from enemy taijutsu, and increase Health
Ninjutsu Chips - These are blue. They raise your Ninjutsu attack power, reduce
your damage from enemy Ninjutsu, and increase Stamina
Special Attack Chips - These are green and give Naruto various abilities
Limited-Use Chips - These are pink and are earned in Mini-Games. To top it all
off, they disappear after five uses. Yes, to get them once
more, you have to play the Mini-Game again
Empty Chips - These are gold and only serve the purpose of trying to fill a
Skill Plate, as they have no abilities whatsoever.

NOTE: After some missions, you will be returned to the village. If not, do so
yourself. Doing so will restore you completely, plus it will give you a
chance to look at the lastest Skill Chips in stock and most of all,
SAVE constantly!!
OBJECTIVE: Take food stuffs from hidden Leaf Village to Tanzaku Town and the
trader waiting therein. This is marked as a red dot on the map, and
you will be attacked along the way
OBJECTIVE: A request for help has come from the only source of Ninja Tools in
the Hidden Leaf Village, "Emporium Karin". Go to the shop, learn the
owner's situation, and help restore business. Make your way around
the map a couple of times to grind and help with the objective of
the mission and ask around the village. When the shopkeep is
satisfied, your job is done
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +400, Skill Chip: Recovery
OBJECTIVE: The famous Tamasaburo candy has suddenly disappeared from shops. The
village sweet-tooths are in an uproar, and Anko has taken ill from
shock. Find some Tamasaburo in order to restore her health. Choji
will come along on this mission, which you can call him to battle
using the L2 button. Follow the red dots, as per usual, and explore
the mountain throughly for the flower. Head back to South Town and
prepare to fight a hunger crazed Choji.
SKILLS: Human Boulder Jutsu (Easy to avoid if you just keep moving)
Partial Expansion Jutsu (Some damage and will send you flying)
Expansion Jutsu (Makes him larger and softens your attacks on him)
Flame Bombs (Easy to avoid if you keep moving)
Continuous Jumping Blouder Jutsu (Tracks some, but keep moving)
Human Needle Boulder Jutsu (Version 2,0 of the Human Boulder Jutsu)
OBJECTIVE: Transport goods from the Hidden Leaf Village to Border Town and
deliver them to the trader waiting therein. The cargo this time is
very fragile, so be careful. Choose to form a team in the village
menu to take Choji and stock up on Fire Kunai, as they will make
this mission easier by dispatching enemies in one to two hits
OBJECTIVE: 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. You have
four minutes to locate twelve charms while not letting Konohamaru
bite the big one. I would suggest running after said charms,
covering the brat when needed. Looking head on from the entrance,
this tends to be the quicker of paths:
Turn west and find the Tiger Charm on the wall. Turn north and go
straight to the Dog Charm, and then go east to get the Dragon Charm.
Go west young Naruto and get the Boar Charm off the stump, following
the ramp afterwards to get the Rabbit Charm. The Snake Charm is on
the ground to the north. Now heading east, you will find the Rat
Charm up in a tree and the Monkey Charm on a stump just east of the
Rat Charm. Head south from here to find the Ox Charm in a crevice
in the wall. Follow the northeast path towards the entrance finding
the Rooster and Horse Charms along said path. Find the island with
a ninja on it and get the Sheep Charm. This should do it, so head
back to the entrance. Here Neji is waiting to spring a trap on you.
SKILLS: Eight Trigrams Palm Rotation (Deals good damage if you are close enough
to be caught in it and lessens damage to himself if you attack him)
Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms (Deals pretty heavy damage)
Kunais and Chakra-infused shuriken (Just keep moving)
The best strategy is to play keep away from him, by bombarding him with your
weapons. He is a Taijutsu user, so his moves have to be close range.
CHOJI AKIMICHI'S SKILLS: Same as the last Boss fight
SASUKE UCHIHA'S SKILLS: Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu (Long range attack)
Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu (Multi-hit, long
range Jutsu)
Chidori (Mid-range attack)
Wind Shurikens (Long range weaponry)
ALLY: Shikamaru Nara (Make the best of his Shadow Possession Jutsu!! ^^)
Take out whoever is more annoying to you, and just as their fighting styles
suggest, counter them by doing the opposite. Play long range with Choji and
play straight up brawler with Sasuke
SASUKE UCHIHA'S SKILLS: Same as before, only it seems in this one, he will
pound the ground with an airbourne Chidori
SHIKAMARU NARA'S SKILLS: Balloons (Extends the range of his Shadow Possession)
Paper Bombs (Time delayed exploding pieces of paper)
Trap Kunai (Ground based kunai)
Shadow Possession Jutsu (Traps and damages)
ALLY: Choji Akimichi
Take out Shikamaru first, seeing as he tends to lay A LOT of traps. You know
what you're up against with Sasuke, but this time he's pissed and tends to
attack more relentlessly
OBJECTIVE: Rumor has it that Hokage Dolls sold in the village are cursed, as
those who buy the doll inevitably seem to meet with misfortune.
Gather the dolls and investigate the rumor. Kakashi will accompany
you. Go to each town and red dot, calling on Kakshi-sensei to blow
everyone away. He's your ticket to easy street on this mission, so
flaunt him often
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +900, Skill Chip: Chakra Bonus
OBJECTIVE: 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... Form a two
man cell (team) and head to border town. When attacked, do not let
these hoods get their hands on your captive
OBJECTIVE: Emporium Karin is requesting advertising help again. Get the details
from the store owner and follow her instructions to carry out an
advertising campaign. This mission is like before by going out and
fighting for a little, the checking if the village likes the store.
OBJECTIVE: 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. Head to Port Town, fight, then prepare for the
Boss Man (er... boy)!!
SKILLS: Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu
Fire Style: Dragon Flame Bombs
Chidori
Wind Shurikens
Lion Combo
Try mid to long range, seeing as the Lion Combo is not a good thing. The one
upside to it is to use the Substitution Jutsu (pressing X in time with an
opponent's strike), appear behind him, and go crazy.
OBJECTIVE: A request has come in to help a gambler who has fallen into trouble.
While the specifics are still unclear, we need someone to meet with
the client and help resolve the situation. Form a two-man cell, and
head for the red dot. Fight the monkeys (Man, do they move >.>) and
make for the middle of the mountains to fight the boss monkey
Go straight for the boss monkey and Twin-Edge Kunai him. He'll fall down, which
means charge a Rasengan and let him have it. If you picked Neji, throw him into
the pain that is Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms. If for some reason you didn't
kill the flea-ridden beast, he'll retreat. You'll just have to track him down
and finish what you started, now won't you??
Head for the red dot and meet up with Sakura. She is, of course, looking for
Sasuke. Let's help her and look for treasure all at the same time.
BATTLE ONE: Don't bother with the ninjas here. Just find the treasure chests
and make for the exit
BATTLE TWO: There are several treasure chests to be found here, but beware, as
most have bear traps around them. Dispatch of the enemy and get
out of here
BATTLE THREE: More a battle of wits. After going through the first set of
pillars, watch the shadows on the ground. Follow the one that is
not like the others
Save at the floating scroll, get the treasure chest off to the right, and head
to the next area. There are two chests in this area and stay out of the shadows
cause of falling boulders. Save, because you're about to throw down with one
mean medic ninja
He'll start the battle by hanging back and healing himself. Watch out for an
underground technique, if you get too close. Hang back though, and he'll start
with the healing himself again. Rasangen and weapon him to death. This seems
to work for me
OBJECTIVE: Sasuke has been confined at home for his dangerous behavior. Naruto
must take a mission as punishment. Transport a shipment of precious
metal from the Hidden Leaf Village to Tanzaku Town. This is another
cart mission, which means weapons, weapons, weapons. They seem to be
the easiest and quickest way to deal with these annoying missions
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +1500, Skill Chip: Empty Chip 2
He starts things off with a Chidori. How surprising... Weapons are more or less
useless in this battle, so go with the Shadow Clones and the Rasengan for the
win. Ok, in some cases, you will have to fight Curse Mark Sasuke. He's
basically the same, only quite a bit stronger. I would suggest using Kyuubi
Naruto if you get this fight.
OBJECTIVE: Madame Shijimi, wife of the Land of Fire's leader, has a request for
Naruto. Thieves are after a national treasure, a collection of jars
with historic value. Go to the Villa where the jars are kept and
serve as security. Use Shikamaru's Shadow Possession and Naruto's
Shadow Clones to your advantage. The doors can take some damage, but
like you, the mission is over if the doors reach zero energy.
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +1600, Skill Plate: Spiral
OBJECTIVE: Transport oil from the Hidden Leaf Village to Tanzaku Town and
deliver it to the waiting Trader. The oil is highly flammable, so be
sure to watch out for fire during battle. You can handle a cart
mission by now, right?? Good, cause this is one of them.
OBJECTIVE: A wanted ninja has been captured in Border Town. Take the prisoner
into custody and escort him to the Hidden Leaf Village. It's highly
likely that the prisoner's comrades will attack, so stay on the
alert. Fight off his lackies in a four battle set.
OBJECTIVE: There has been recent unrest in the Sand. Infiltrate Sand Castle
near the Hidden Sand Village, meet up with your contact inside, and
investigate the Sand's activity. Shikamaru will accompany you. The
first trail to the Castle is a long one. Find the treasures, break
the wall before you, and follow the Hidden Leaf post into the next
area. The roof area is a straightforward path to the next area. In
here, jump the platforms. Watch out for traps and the tricky chests
in this area. Head out the window and into the next area. Just
collect the treasures here and head up the stairs. Save and get
ready for a cranky Jinchuriki.
This guy is a defensive warrior, through and through. I'm not going to beat
around the bush and just tell you to let you smack you down. This way you can
turn into Kyuubi Naruto and beat him quickly into submission
Leave the Leaf Village to the highlighted locale. After watching Hinata and
Naruto, head to Flowermoon Village. Save, seeing as a boss is waiting at the
end
SKILLS: Rock Wave (Creates a barrier all around him to damage)
Club Swing (Close physical attack)
Summon Lightning (Calls ligtning beams that will track, so run!! He'll
turn blue, but you can punch him out of it. This
puts you in his attack range however)
Home Run Swing (Knocks you in the air and hits you on the way down)
Ninjutsu is the way to go on this one, as far as I'm concerned.
OBJECTIVE: Madame Shijimi has sent another request. Apparently, she never paid
the thieves she hired before, and they are none too pleased. Hurry
to the Village and protect her storehouse from the thieves. Another
'Protect the Doors' mission, but no weapons as they hurt the doors.
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +2300, Skill Chip: New Swimsuit
OBJECTIVE: There has been a request from a TV station filming an action drama
to dispatch two ninja as stuntmen. Meet up with the other ninja at
the studio and help with the filming. Ignore the bad guys and pay
attention to the treasures and cut scenes. Make your way to the
machine in back. Boss fight time!! (Note: Neji and his Eight
Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms will be much help on this boss fight)
SKILLS: A Slash with it's front limbs
Shockwave Slash (A projectile by slashing it's front limbs)
Whirlwinds
A Body Slam-like attack after jumping up
Fire element weaponry (which you should have a few to choose from by now) and
Neji are the key to taking these overgrown garden bugs out. Do not stay close
for long and watch out for the long range stuff, but it's easy to dodge once
you see it coming. That means trying to keep them in your sights (or should
I say camera) at all times
OBJECTIVE: A wanted ninja has been captured in Border Town. Take the prisoner
into custody and escort him to the Hidden Leaf Village. Orochimaru's
men have been trying to abduct many prisoners lately. Be careful.
Bear your fangs for this mission with whatever two-man cell you
like best and prepare for one of the tougher cargo missions
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +2500, Dual Ax3
NOTE: Now might be a good time to practice your skills and toughen up your
character. The end is near...
OBJECTIVE: Emporium Karin hasn't been open for some time now. Since Naruto has
already saved the shop twice, we would like him to check out the
situation and see if a new problem has occurred. Get your teammates,
head to the store, and the out to your destination. These place is
pretty cut and dry, so follow the Hidden Leaf signs to navigate.
There will be a rock to bust up, follow the path beyond it, and make
your way home
ROUND ONE REWARD: Virtue +2600, Skill Chip: Empty Chip 3
OBJECTIVE: The villagers of Wind Gate have suddenly vanished. Orochimaru may
have taken over the village for his nefarious experiments. Hurry
there with Neji to find the villagers and stop the experiments. Look
for the treasure chests, avoiding the greenish fog stuff. As always,
follow the Hidden Leaf signs, as this game doesn't allow for a big
freedom of movement. Save after making your way to the roof and
prepare to exchange blows with a fellow Jinchuriki
Use the same strategies as before with maybe a little spamming of Neji's Eight
Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms. Hold onto your hats folks, cause after him, comes
Round 2. Yay...
OBJECTIVE: The Anbu pursued Kabuto and located Orochimaru's hideout. However,
green mist has broken out near the village, and damage is already
spreading. Take over Orochimaru's hideout and bring an end to this
dreadful plot!! The way through this level is pretty cut and dry,
except for one split path that goes forward and to your left. I
say go straight first and get all the treasures your grubby, little
mitts can handle. After handling this area, there should be another
fork in the road. Go left if you just want to save and fight the
bosses, or go right if you want more treasure. Regardless, save (as
this is the finale) and go forth, receiving Kakashi AND Sasuke. I,
myself would save Kakshi for the end as he's your powerhouse
First order of business, Rasengan every cyrstal in the place, as the enemies
will respawn AND heal endlessly if you don't. You should know how these two
throw down, so have at them!!
Follow the path and Karin has come to save the day. Buy plenty of Health items
and head on down the path. Yes, that's a scroll for saving for what is really
the last battle.
SKILLS: Kunai Throw
Shadow Stalker (a slithering slide across the battle area)
Summon Tornados (A launcher to send you flying into combos)
Tongue Lashing (Uses this for a mid-range damaging technique)
The guy definitely has speed on his side. I would suggest using weapons that
knock down (Like Twin-Edged Kunai and Fire Kunai), pummeling him with Shadow
Clones, and chargin Rasengan right as he starts to get up. Charge too long and
he will bolt away. It may be just me, but I do believe he gets faster as his
health drops. Using Kakashi and Sasuke are okay, but in the end, the well
balanced nature of the main character wins out. Enjoy your Cutscene/Credits/
Cutscene combo, as you have definitely earned it.
GAME COMPLETE REWARDS: Skill Plate: Shuriken, Increased Health/Stamnia in your
New Game Plus, Boss Fights at your choosing, and Kakashi
Hatake plus Gaara of the Sand as teammates in missions
