How to Get Naruto (Baryon Mode) – The Ultimate Godly Unit

Naruto (Baryon Mode) stands as the crown jewel of Update 69, and for good reason. This Godly unit isn’t just powerful – it’s a complete game-changer that can solo carry through most content.

Step 1: Complete the Godly Trial

The Godly Trial consists of a challenging questline that tests your mastery of various game mechanics:

1. Complete 100 waves in Infinite Mode – Build a balanced team with strong AOE units like Mesh or Baldy (Serious)
2. Defeat 500 enemies using Wind element units – Perfect opportunity to level up your wind-based roster
3. Clear Story Mode Chapter 15 without using items – Requires careful unit placement and strategic timing
4. Participate in 10 Tournament matches – Win or lose, participation counts toward progress
5. Collect 500 Elemental Essence (Wind) – Farm Elemental Dungeons during 2x drop events for maximum efficiency

Pro Strategy: Focus on completing tournament matches first since they’re time-gated. Run Infinite Mode during off-peak hours when servers are more stable for consistent wave completion.

Step 2: Master the Ninja Rush (Boss Rush)

Enter the new Ninja Rush (Boss Rush) and watch for special interactions with Naruto (7th Hokage) and the 9 Tails. During my runs, I discovered that placing Naruto (7th Hokage) on the field triggers special dialogue with the Nine Tails boss that appears every 10 waves.

Essential Materials to Farm:

• Nine Tails Ember – Drops from Nine Tails boss encounters (waves 10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
• Chakra Essence – Reward for completing full 50-wave runs
• Evolution Catalyst – Purchase from Boss Rush shop using Rush Tokens

Optimal Team Composition for Boss Rush:

• Main DPS: Sung Jin Woo (Shadow King) or current meta units
• Support: Lightning Queen for conquered attributes and team buffs
• AOE Clear: Mid for full AOE hemorrhage and regeneration cancellation
• Tank: Any high-health unit to absorb boss special attacks

Step 3: Evolution Process

Combine these materials at the Evolution Station with your maxed-out Naruto (7th Hokage) to unlock the legendary Baryon Mode transformation.

Required Materials:

• Naruto (7th Hokage) at maximum level
• 5x Nine Tails Ember
• 3x Chakra Essence
• 1x Evolution Catalyst
• 1,000,000 Gold

How to Get Isshiki – The Otsutsuki Powerhouse (2026)

Isshiki can be unlocked through Boss Rush. Clear stages in Ninja Rush to collect Celestial Being and Black Chakra Rods. Trade these in the Boss Rush shop for Timeless Dimension Cube, his evolution item.

Farming Strategy for Isshiki

Isshiki’s acquisition revolves entirely around the Boss Rush system:

1. Clear Ninja Rush stages repeatedly – Each clear guarantees 50-100 Celestial Being tokens
2. Target specific bosses – The Otsutsuki-themed bosses on waves 20 and 40 drop Black Chakra Rods
3. Visit Boss Rush shop – Exchange 1000 Celestial Being tokens and 10 Black Chakra Rods for the Timeless Dimension Cube

Shop Refresh Schedule: The Boss Rush shop refreshes every 48 hours, so if you miss the Timeless Dimension Cube, don’t panic! Just keep farming tokens and check back after the reset.

Advanced Farming Tips:

• Run Boss Rush during 2x token events (weekends)
• Form parties with guild members for guaranteed clears
• Save Rush Tokens for emergency purchases if RNG is unfavorable

How to Get Sosuke – Story Mode Mastery

Sosuke is unlocked directly by progressing through Story Mode. This unit drops directly from Story Mode progression, specifically from completing the new Chapters 16-20 added in Update 69.

Story Mode Requirements

Chapter Progression Strategy:

• Chapters 16-18: Focus on wind and fire element units for optimal damage
• Chapter 19: Boss encounters require high single-target DPS

Past Memories Farming:

• Complete Bounded Siege Normal difficulty (guaranteed 1-2 drops)
• Bounded Siege Hard difficulty (3-5 drops, higher difficulty)
• Exchange in Siege Shop (expensive but guaranteed)

How to Get Boruto – Siege Master

Boruto drops from the new Normal Siege stage. Clearing the stage also rewards Moroshiki’s Essence, needed for Boruto’s evolution.

Siege Mode Strategy

Normal Siege Approach:

1. Team Composition: Prioritize AOE units for wave clearing
2. Phase Management: Save burst abilities for mini-boss encounters
3. Resource Conservation: Don’t use consumables early – save for final waves

Evolution Requirements:

• Base Boruto unit (from Normal Siege)
• 3x Moroshiki’s Essence (also from Normal Siege)
• 500,000 Gold
• 1x Evolution Stone (purchasable from various shops)

How to Get Pain – Extreme Boosted Hunt

Pain arrives as an Extreme Boosted Unit in this update. You can find him through dedicated boosted stages, so keep an eye out for boosted challenges.

Boosted Unit Mechanics

Finding Pain:
