Naruto Shinobi Nations

NARUTO: SHINOBI NATIONS

Minecraft 1.20.1 | Forge 47.4.21 | Beta

Naruto: Shinobi Nations is a large-scale Naruto-inspired progression, combat, clan, village and exploration mod.

Create your shinobi identity, choose a clan, train your physical and chakra-based skills, unlock more than 140 techniques, activate powerful dojutsu, transform into legendary creatures, command NPC squads, travel between dimensions and build your own shinobi nation.

The mod supports both singleplayer and dedicated multiplayer servers.

This is a beta release. Balance, visuals, and individual effects can still change. Please report bugs and share feedback.

I know the animations are terrible. You can also let me know if you have any requests. Or fun clan/jutsu ideas.

Feel free to use anything I’ve made for this mod however you like, including the visuals and everything else. There’s no copyright or anything like that. Take care :)

Shinobi Profile

The Shinobi Profile contains your:

• Clan
• Village
• Chakra nature
• Current and maximum Chakra
• Ninjutsu
• Taijutsu
• Genjutsu
• Medical skill
• Kenjutsu
• Chakra Control
• Jutsu Points
• Rank and progression
• Unlocked techniques
• Jutsu assignment slots
• Dojutsu progression
• Clan-specific abilities

---

Jutsu Points and Unlocking Techniques

Jutsu Points, commonly displayed as JP, are used to unlock techniques.

More advanced techniques require:

• More JP
• Higher skill levels
• Earlier techniques in the same progression path
• A specific clan or chakra nature
• A particular dojutsu stage
• An active transformation or Eight Gates level

Unlocking a technique does not automatically cast it. Assign it to an available jutsu slot, select that slot and use right-click.

---

Chakra

Most ninjutsu, genjutsu, medical techniques and transformations consume Chakra.

Chakra can be spent:

• Immediately when a technique is cast
• Continuously every second
• Every game tick during extremely powerful techniques
• As a percentage of maximum Chakra
• When maintaining a transformation or structure

If a maintained technique runs out of Chakra, it is automatically closed and its summoned structures are removed.

Taijutsu techniques generally do not consume Chakra. They instead rely on Taijutsu skill, physical requirements, cooldowns and exhaustion.

---

Chakra Control

Chakra Control improves techniques that depend on precise chakra manipulation.

Press V to toggle Chakra Walk. When properly trained, Chakra Walk allows the player to move across surfaces that would normally be difficult to traverse.

Medical techniques and advanced control-based abilities may require high Chakra Control.

---

Clans

The current version contains eleven playable clans:

• Otsutsuki
• Uchiha
• Senju
• Uzumaki
• Hyuga
• Lee
• Namikaze
• Kurama
• Palestine
• China
• Turk

Each clan has different skill affinities, limits, progression paths and exclusive techniques.

Lee clan members can reach the highest Taijutsu limit. Hyuga members also have an increased Taijutsu limit, while other clans have a lower maximum.

Typical scaling:

Ninjutsu	Approximate multiplier
100	1.0×
200	1.2×
500	1.5×
1,000	2.0×

This keeps high-level techniques powerful without allowing raw skill values to produce unreasonable damage.

---

Only the player who activates the eye sees:

---

Health Display

For characters with very large health pools, the HUD compresses hearts into heart rows.

The maximum number of heart rows is shown on the left and the current number is shown on the right:

11x / 9x

This means the character has a maximum of eleven full heart rows and currently has nine.

Every ten full hearts, or twenty half-hearts, correspond to one displayed row. Lost hearts remain visually understandable instead of being represented only by a vague multiplier.

---

Villages and World Systems

The world contains major shinobi settlements, including:

• Konohagakure
• Sunagakure
• Kirigakure
• Iwagakure

• Belong to villages and factions

• Fight hostile NPCs

• Defend selected areas
• Attack specific targets
• Participate in village warfare

---

Shinobi Squad Command

Press B to open the squad command interface.

Depending on your commander rank, you can recruit and control shinobi of different ranks, including:

• Genin
• Chunin
• Jonin
• ANBU
• Half-Rage units

Select squad members and an area, then issue an order.

Leaving and reopening the interface no longer preserves an unintended previous area selection.

---

Travelling Shinobi Merchant

A custom travelling shinobi merchant can spawn in the Shinobi world.

This spawn system can operate even when normal natural mob spawning is disabled, allowing servers with restricted natural spawning to retain access to the merchant.

Dimensions and Space-Time Travel

The mod contains special dimensions and travel systems associated with advanced dojutsu and space-time techniques.

These include:

• Kamui Dimension
• Otsutsuki-related worlds
• Space-time portals
• Rinnegan travel
• Flying Raijin teleportation
• Clan-specific dimensional abilities

Use these systems carefully on multiplayer servers because some destinations may be dangerous or difficult to leave without the correct technique.

---

Transformations and Toggleable Structures

The following general rule applies:

• Select the active transformation or sanctuary in the jutsu bar.
• Use Shift + Right-click.
• The selected active technique closes.

This applies to:

• Asena’s Celestial Wolf
• Celestial Azure Dragon
• Seven-Arched Sanctuary I
• Grand Seven-Arched Sanctuary II
• Supreme Seven-Arched Healing Sanctuary III

The action does not close an unrelated transformation or structure if a different slot is selected.

---

Multiplayer and Server Notes

The mod is designed for dedicated multiplayer use, but very large techniques may still be demanding.

Server owners should consider:

• Allocating sufficient memory
• Avoiding extremely low view distances
• Monitoring mass entity creation
• Limiting simultaneous giant constructs
• Backing up worlds before updates
• Keeping client and server mod versions identical

True Several Thousand Hands uses controlled dragon limits and silent terrain removal to reduce server freezes caused by large synchronous explosions and block-update cascades.

---

Tips for New Players

• Begin with basic elemental techniques before saving for forbidden jutsu.
• Improve Chakra Control if your techniques consume too much Chakra.
• Keep at least one defensive or mobility technique assigned.
• Do not open the Eighth Gate without a survival plan.
• Ninja Art Creation Rebirth can prevent certain fatal Gate consequences, but it is extremely expensive.
• Night Guy always becomes fatal after sixty seconds unless an advanced medical effect successfully intervenes.
• Sanctuary techniques are strongest when a team fights inside them.
• Destroy the Guardian Olive Tree to stop its healing field.
• Nazar Seal can redirect hostile NPC attention.
• Do not waste high-upkeep techniques with a low maximum Chakra pool.
• Shift-right-click closes only the selected supported transformation or structure.
• Empty-handed shadow clones remain unarmed; hold a weapon before summoning if you want them to copy it.

- A defeated Tailed Beast can release its chakra/sealing item for capture.
- If an unbonded player host dies, the sealed Tailed Beast is released again.

Stage IV requires the player to build trust with the sealed Tailed Beast through an internal dialogue system.

Bond Dialogue System
Sealed Tailed Beasts speak with their host over multiple in-game days.

- Dialogue messages arrive gradually in chat rather than all at once.
- Different Tailed Beasts have different bond durations.
- Multiple sealed Tailed Beasts can participate in the same internal conversations.
- Friendly bonded Tailed Beasts may support the player during later conversations.
- Unfriendly Tailed Beasts can argue with the host or other imprisoned beasts.
- Once a bond is complete, the player can safely access Stage IV for that Tailed Beast.

Transformation Stages
Tailed Beast transformations provide their own movement scaling and combat behavior.

- Transformation Speed and Transformation Jump are separate from normal H-profile speed and jump bonuses.
- Stage I uses a reduced transformation movement multiplier.
- Stage II provides a stronger multiplier.
- Stage III provides full transformation movement.
- Stage IV and advanced giant forms use the highest transformation multiplier.
- Stage IV forms have enlarged body size, extended melee reach and stronger jump capability.
- Shift-right-clicking a selected Tailed Beast transformation seal in Stage IV cycles through the player’s bonded Tailed Beast forms.
- The selected form can be closed through its designated selected-slot control.

Tailed Beast Bombs
Tailed Beast Bombs are cast directly while transformed rather than through a separate bomb item.

- Stage III uses a longer charge sequence.
- Stage IV uses a faster charge sequence.
- The visual charge builds around the Tailed Beast’s mouth before firing.
- The projectile creates a large TNT-style explosion rather than a terrain-mining effect.
- The blast can destroy Obsidian-level terrain but protects bedrock and similarly unbreakable blocks.
- The explosion damages terrain, water and living entities in its blast zone.

Matatabi and Isobu
Matatabi and Isobu have additional transformation-specific traits.

Matatabi:
- Has a reduced hitbox compared with the other large Tailed Beasts.
- Receives greatly increased Stage IV speed and jump movement.
- Uses a special blue-flame themed attack set.

Isobu:
- Gains a major defensive benefit while transformed.
- Takes substantially reduced incoming damage.

Tailed Beast Location Missions
Tailed Beast Location Charts are now connected to village-rank missions rather than ordinary random loot.

- Half-Kage players may be called back to their Kage.
- The Kage sends periodic private location reminders.
- Speaking with the Kage begins a timed mission dialogue.
- Kage players can receive a report from a Half-Kage messenger instead.
- Completing the dialogue awards a Tailed Beast Location Chart.
- The chart can identify a wild Tailed Beast or the current host/location of a sealed one.
- The test command /naruto_shinobi_nations bijuu_locator_mission is restricted to operators only.
