   A must-read for Naruto mobile game players. Every time the protagonist enters a new ghost story instance, he randomly draws a Naruto mobile game trial card—the Third Hokage, Edo Minato, Hidan, Pain, Obito, Hashirama, Madara, Deidara… He gets to use the full set of skills of whoever he draws. Flying Thunder God Technique breaks the Infinite Train, Kamui Hollowfication cuts through the Final Theater, Planetary Devastation seals the Old Gods, C0 self-destructs to bombard the Insect God. Viewers are unaware of the system's existence and can only guess which character it is based on the skill effects—the comment section is more enthusiastic about guessing the cards than watching the updates. 700,000 Words, 14 instances cleared, no system-based gameplay, pure Naruto abilities crushing the ghost stories. Give it a try if you're looking for something to read.
