Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

"Let me think about it."

Having only one chance to make a wish, Xiao Nan decided to think it over carefully for a while, not wanting to waste it.

"Okay, take your time thinking about it..."

Fang Rui didn't say anything like "you have to say your wish within ten minutes" or "it will expire if you don't." Each wish-making opportunity was his payment to Xiao Nan and the others, so it was valid indefinitely.

While the three were talking, the battle between the Third and Fourth Raikage had ended. There's a saying: Your father is always your father!

The Fourth Raikage, who was shouting fancy names for his moves, held out for a while before being beaten up by the Third Raikage. From the familiar pain brought by each punch and kick, the Fourth Raikage was certain that the person in front of him was his father.

The two were catching up and asking each other how the Third Raikage had managed to rise from his coffin.

The subsequent plot was too bland, so Fang Rui immediately made a decision...

"Change to another one..."

As he spoke, the scene on the screen changed, revealing a golden desert and a town nestled within it...

"Sunagakure Village?"

Nagato spoke in a low voice, staring intently at the slowly zooming-in image, and immediately noticed a problem... The yellow sand swirling above Sunagakure was likely being manipulated, after all...

No matter how the wind blows, the yellow sand will not drift so gracefully.

As the camera zoomed in, the situation inside Sunagakure Village became clear.

Countless grains of yellow sand converged, swirling in the air like snakes. Each time it tried to pounce on someone, it was blocked by golden grains the size of sand. The collision between the two was like the collision of ocean waves, canceling each other out and splashing away...

Gaara stands atop a cloud of yellow sand, moving swiftly through the air, manipulating the sand to chase after someone. A puppet carrying Chiyo follows behind Gaara, while the other three puppets cooperate with Gaara to attack that person.

The remaining Sunagakure ninjas chased after the three, providing support at any time. They threw various ninjutsu at the fleeing Rasa, and occasionally, comments like "How dare he impersonate the Kazekage! Kill him!" or "It's Magnet Release: Gold Sand! Could the Kazekage have an illegitimate child?!" came from the screen.

"Hmm..." Nagato fell silent for a moment. He sensed something was off about the situation with these former Kage returning to the village. Why... were they all fighting?!

Is the word "warlike" ingrained in the genes of ninjas?!

"That's pretty tragic." Without thinking about what to wish for, Konan focused on watching the live stream and gave an appropriate assessment of the Fourth Kazekage's plight.

"It's pretty tragic."

Fang Rui agreed with this.

Rasa is an ordinary Kage-level fighter, and his strength is heavily influenced by the region, since his Magnet Release involves manipulating gold dust, and not every region has enough gold dust.

Gold dust was plentiful near Sunagakure, which allowed Rasa to survive being surrounded and pursued by a group of ninjas.

The three watched carefully for a while, but finding nothing interesting, they switched their perspective to Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village). At that moment, the Third Tsuchikage and the Second Tsuchikage were drinking tea and chatting in a very harmonious atmosphere.

"There wasn't a fight?!" Nagato was somewhat surprised.

"The Second Tsuchikage has some exclusive ninjutsu, and he was the Third Tsuchikage's teacher, so he knows a lot of embarrassing things about the Third Tsuchikage. It would be very easy for him to prove his identity."

After listening to Fang Rui's explanation, Nagato suddenly realized, "...I see."

Konan did not participate in the conversation, but listened to the dialogue between the two generations of Tsuchikage.

"Why are you still the Tsuchikage? Are you unwilling to relinquish your power?!"

The Second Tsuchikage, Mu, spoke in a calm tone, but his words were quite sharp.

"How could that be~" Onoki remained calm. A slightly sharp remark could not shake his composure. He only sighed softly when he thought of his disciple, whom he had groomed as his successor, betraying the ninja village.

"The problem is that there isn't a qualified successor. To be precise, there was one originally, but..."

As he spoke, Onoki's temper flared up, and he said angrily, "I only said a few words to him, and he actually ran away from the village. I wonder where he's gone now..."

"...Very talented?" After a moment of silence, the Second Tsuchikage asked.

"Very well." Onoki said angrily. If his talent were less, he wouldn't be so angry.

Upon hearing this, the Second Tsuchikage Mu's expression gradually became subtle. How could you lose such a talented disciple, someone who was even being groomed as the successor to the Tsuchikage?!

"Onoki, have you gotten too old and become stupid?"

The Second Tsuchikage's tone was helpless, and his words were inevitably somewhat venomous.

"No, teacher, you have to understand, that kid is outrageous. He says explosions are art, and he plays with bombs every day, disturbing the peace of the entire Iwagakure village..."

"stop!"

The Second Tsuchikage suddenly raised his hand to stop Onoki from continuing, saying, "Teaching disciples is a teacher's mission. What kind of person blames his disciple for not teaching him well?"

Onoki: "…………" I would like to teach him, but he simply… won't listen to me!

Just talking to him for a few words can make me so angry I could vomit blood!

"Look how well I've taught you!"

Onoki did not refute the Second Tsuchikage Mu's boasting, because no matter how he refuted it, he would be the one who suffered in the end.

"Let's talk about something else..." Onoki changed the subject abruptly, otherwise he suspected that if he continued to be hurt, he might end up in the hospital.

"Okay, I'll do as you say, let's change the subject."

The Second Tsuchikage had no objection to this, and he immediately changed the subject, saying, "So... let's talk about whether you've found your apprentice yet?"

"Can we stop talking about Deidara?!" Onoki said helplessly.

"Row……"

Fang Rui decided to change the channel because the content was too boring.

"Deidara... he's actually the Third Tsuchikage's apprentice?!"

From their conversation, Nagato gleaned an important piece of information, which seemed to surprise him.

"You...don't know Deidara's identity?"

As the leader of an organization, to be completely unaware of the identities of its members—typical of you, Nagato!

"I have some recollection of it; someone must have told me about it..." Nagato's tone was somewhat vague; as was his habit, he easily forgot things that weren't very important...

Who Deidara was a disciple of was not important to him.

"Let's not talk about this..." Nagato didn't dwell on the matter and immediately changed the subject, pointing to the screen and saying, "Look at that..."

The video playing on the screen shows the Second Mizukage versus the ninja forces of Kirigakure.

Portraits of the successive Mizukage have been preserved, so when the Second Mizukage entered Kirigakure, he was quickly recognized by the Kirigakure ninja in the streets, and then the scene unfolded like, "How dare he impersonate the Mizukage! Brothers, let's go and beat him up!"

As the battle expanded, more Kirigakure ninja were drawn in, including Kirigakure's elite forces and high-ranking officials.

fighting……

A chaotic battle...

Like a special effects movie with a huge budget, Fang Rui watched with great interest, while Nagato and Konan frowned slightly but said nothing.

"The progress is very slow!"

Fang Rui muttered to himself that once the identities of Minato Namikaze and the others were recognized by the various ninja villages, the progress in collecting ninjutsu and treasures would be much faster.

With that thought in mind, Fang Rui shifted his attention from the screen to other things, turning his gaze to the streets of Yuyin Village in the rain.

Black Zetsu crouched on Kaguya Otsutsuki's left shoulder, mimicking an umbrella to shield her from the rain. The end of the umbrella handle was an ordinary claw, allowing her to stand firmly.

The middle part of the umbrella handle is a disc, and on the disc is Black Zetsu's face.

Behind and to the side of Kaguya Otsutsuki was Hagoromo Otsutsuki. Perhaps he wanted to ease the tension between mother and son, or perhaps he was worried about his mother and younger brother going out together, so he followed along.

Kaguya Otsutsuki strolled through the streets, seemingly looking at something, yet also seemingly looking at nothing at all.

Fang Rui withdrew his gaze and put the study plan on the agenda, hoping that Kaguya Otsutsuki's teaching ability was above average.

At the same time, Yahiko sat at the dining table, which was filled with fragrant dishes, and there was no one else around him.

"Where...did everyone go?"

………………

After some time, Fugaku Uchiha and Mikoto Uchiha arrived at Amegakure. The two were panting, but they did not stop moving forward and headed straight for the high-rise building where the Akatsuki organization's base was located.

At the same time, Kakuzu and Hidan arrived at the entrance of Amegakure, while Deidara and Sasori were about to arrive.

Generally speaking, Akatsuki members rarely return to Amegakure. Only Kakuzu, who is in charge of making money, often returns to Amegakure because he needs to give some of the money to Konan. Among the many members of the organization, Sasori is the one who hates returning to Amegakure the most because of the humid air, as the thick moisture has a slight effect on the puppets.

However, a day before, Pain, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, issued an order to summon the organization's members back to Amegakure.

The Akatsuki members naturally obeyed their leader's orders, setting off from all over the world to converge on Amegakure...

The first group to arrive at Amegakure was Kakuzu and Hidan.

"I don't know why the leader called us back," Hidan said casually, carrying his scarlet scythe.

"It's not important." Kakuzu didn't care about this matter; he just wanted to end it as soon as possible and continue making money.

At the same time, he was thinking... what should he do if this matter takes a long time?

Waiting quietly for things to end wasn't in his nature; he couldn't waste time that could be used to make money, so...

'How about using shadow clones to make money?'

'Wait, why send shadow clones to make money? Wouldn't it be better to send them to the meeting?!'

When the above thought popped into his mind, Kakuzu's eyes gleamed with a green light.

'No, making money alone is too slow; we need to be more efficient!'

"We should send many shadow clones to capture them simultaneously; that's an extremely efficient approach!"

As for the fact that the fatigue of the shadow clones would be transferred to the main body, he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, his body had been modified by the Earthly Grudge, making it different from that of a normal human, and its resistance to fatigue was much stronger.

As long as it's not the kind of fatigue that would destroy five hearts at once, he can handle it...

and so……

"I need to test where my limits are."

Hearing Kakuzu's mutterings, Hidan turned around and asked in confusion, "What are you talking about? What limit?"

"It's nothing, I just found a new way to make money."

Kakuzu's expression remained unchanged, but Hidan, who had spent some time with Kakuzu, could tell that he sounded somewhat excited.

"Oh, really?"
