Author Note: Update and Poll
Added 2025-10-12 17:16:38 +0000 UTCHey everyone, just a small announcement! Chapters 90 to 100 have been updated for Tier 1 patrons. Thank you all so much for the continued support, it really means a lot to me.
Now, onto the poll.
In the last chapter, I mentioned that we’d be heading into the Chunin Exams after the next one, but… after going through my notes, I realized there’s a lot of story that happens before we even get there.
To give you an idea, here are just a few things that happen before the exams:
Naruto meets Tenten again
Team 7 has dinner with Sakura's parents
Naruto vs Neji
Naruto meets Shikamaru and Choji
Sasuke gets his summon
And honestly, that’s just scratching the surface. I could easily list 20 more points. There’s so much buildup that cramming it all into one massive chapter doesn’t feel right as it would rush a lot of key moments that deserve their own space.
So here’s where I need your input:
I’ll be splitting this pre-exam arc into 3 to 4 chapters, but I want to know how you’d prefer I release them.
Poll Options:
Release all 3–4 chapters at once in a single batch.
Upload them one at a time on a regular schedule (so you get to enjoy them gradually).
Let me know what you guys think! One chapter is already finished, and two more are close to being done, so expect new content soon either way.
Thanks again for reading and supporting this story as it means the world to me.

On a regular schedule, we can wait for you to cook up a masterpiece, no need to feel rushed

Not that you need to release them at different times, just make them small chunks so we can discuss each exciting moment. A chapter with Sakura's parents could spark its own discussion, just as well as a Naruto vs Neji interaction could. That's not saying you need to try to release them as you go, if it's a hassle, but do them all at once, but in chunks.
