Alright, so I know I haven't been active for months. Sorry about those that were disappointed that this is only an update.

Anyways, I've finally decided to rewrite this mess of a fic. I'll be creating a new called Naruto: the Shinobi Gamer.

I'll be starting from scratch, releasing a chapter as quick as possible. Most of it will be the same as this fic, except better written. Of course, the arc that I will change the most will be the Wave Mission and Chunin Exams.

The main reason as to why this is getting completely rewritten as a new story is because of the amount of plot conveniences. There are also a lot of plot holes, OC garbage, and obviously, Naruto getting OP so quick. This has especially been brought to my attention. There's also the fact that the fic is alike with the canon verse. A bit too much, in fact.

Not to mention I've gotten a bit stuck on what I should do next. Or rather, I have Chapter 38 completed, but am opting to not release it due to the previously mentioned issues and fear for the future.

Spoilers: Chapter 38 would've been over 10K words, and would've lead to a time-skip. And I had no idea what to do with said time-skip, prompting me to rewrite this story entirely.

Like I said, I'm sorry for those expecting a new chapter. This fic was my first ever attempt at writing a story, so not expecting any issues with it later on was inevitable.
