Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

Tobirama Senju remained calm and cut straight to the heart of the matter. A few petty thieves were easy for Fang Rui to deal with, and there was no way they could have gotten away with it from him...

The current situation is likely a result of Fang Rui's laissez-faire attitude.

“Little brother!!! Regardless of whether Fang Rui needs it or not, we should help him…”

Before Tobirama could finish speaking, Hashirama interrupted, drowning out Tobirama's voice with an even louder one.

"Big brother! Shut up!" Tobirama, speechless, took a deep breath and responded with an even louder voice. After Hashirama quieted down, he explained again, "What I mean is that those people's actions were probably within Fang Rui's expectations. Fang Rui must have had a plan."

He simply didn't believe Fang Rui knew nothing about it.

After all, Fang Rui may not be very cunning, but his strength is undeniable.

A mere few people with some ability couldn't possibly fool Fang Rui!

"...If we act rashly, will it disrupt Fang Rui's plans? If helping turns into hindering things, I think you wouldn't want that either."

Upon hearing this, the others did not object.

"My suggestion is to ask Fang Rui for advice, and at the same time keep a close eye on those who are causing trouble."

“Leave the questioning to me,” Madara Uchiha volunteered.

Most people on the island know where Fang Rui is.

The Den Den Mushi broadcast was not turned off, and Fang Rui's stroll around the venue was broadcast live. Anyone who caught a glimpse of the live stream could guess that Fang Rui was on the floating island.

Ninjas with the ability to fly are few and far between, so no one competed with Uchiha Madara for missions.

"Let the shadow clones handle the surveillance!"

As Tobirama spoke, Madara Uchiha, standing to the side, was somewhat speechless. The man deliberately didn't say that he was entrusting the task of delivering the message to a shadow clone, because he wanted Madara to make the trip himself.

However, if you use shadow clones, you feel like you're inferior to your opponent.

After exchanging glances with Tobirama for a moment, Madara Uchiha clapped his hands together and unleashed the Wood Clone Technique...

"Tsk!" The sound of clicking his tongue was quite clear, but no one present showed any strange expression. This wasn't the first time Tobirama had opposed the Uchiha brothers.

It was common in Amegakure; the three of them would often "argue," but they were very careful and never actually fought.

After reaching an agreement, the group continued shopping...

"Don't you guys feel... a little full?" Sakumo Hatake asked, holding a skewer of grilled meat.

"No!" Hashirama replied affirmatively. The Senju clan members are physically strong and can eat more than ordinary people.

"Half full! I can still eat..." Kushina Uzumaki gently patted her stomach a few times. The Uzumaki clan is also very strong and can eat a lot.

"Let's get something to drink!" Minato Namikaze suggested. He'd been eating all sorts of different dishes—spicy, salty…—and was getting thirsty!

"Let's find a place to sit for a while!" Sakumo Hatake suggested.

To be honest, he was really stuffed.

Compared to his companions, he ate very little, yet he was the first to feel full.

"I agree." Shopping all the time, squeezing through crowds, is really annoying. It would be good to find a place to rest for a while.

The others had no objections, and Kushina Uzumaki suggested, "Let's find a restaurant! They have food and drinks..."

You have to eat at a food festival, otherwise you'll feel like you're missing out on something.

Sakumo Hatake: "…………"

“Okay!” Madara Uchiha agreed.

"I remember a shop called 'Sweet Honey,' which specializes in desserts and drinks. It has several floors, and there should be empty seats now... right?"

Jiraiya's tone was somewhat hesitant, mainly because there were too many people on Delta Island now, even more than during the Lunar New Year.

“Let’s go take a look!” Tsunade said, then added with a complaint, “By the way, the name ‘Sweet Honey’ is a bit…”

After a moment of hesitation, Tsunade still couldn't find a suitable adjective, and finally slowly shook her head.

"I think it's fine." Yahiko didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Is there anything wrong with a dessert shop being called "Sweet Honey"?

The group headed toward the shop, discussing the name "Sweet Honey" as they went.

Of course, only a few people participated in the debate; Tobirama and others did not.

The retired Garp and his companions enjoyed the cool air near the forest, eating all sorts of dishes and drinking otherworldly wines and beverages, living a very carefree life.

"Hmm? That... seems to be someone from CP!"

As someone who frequently deals with CP organizations, Garp can easily recognize a person upon seeing them, perhaps through intuition or experience.

"Hmm~" Sengoku glanced at him upon hearing this. He had dealt with CP organizations more often and had more experience in identifying whether someone was a CP.

"That's right, I'm guessing he's a newcomer!"

Members of the CP organization at different levels exhibit different auras. Those who have just joined the CP organization or are at the bottom of the organization do not have such a deep sinister aura. These people are the easiest to spot, since they have not mastered the method of concealing their aura and are considered cannon fodder.

The second type is soldiers who have been trained to escape the cannon fodder level. They are the most common CP members and can be seen in many things. This type of person does not hide their presence and belongs to the elite troops.

The third category is specialized training, such as spies. These people have varying levels of combat skills and mainly learn various knowledge and skills, making them a more difficult type to distinguish.

There's no need to discuss other types, since they weren't covered.

The person that Garp discovered earlier should be of the second type.

Sengoku didn't know exactly how many CP remnants there were, but they probably didn't have enough manpower to carry out the plan. On one hand, Dragon had been sending people to wipe out the troublemaking CP remnants, and on the other hand, the remaining CP members wouldn't send all of them to Delta Island to cause trouble.

If you get wiped out in one go, there's no chance of making a comeback, so going all in is not advisable.

"A newcomer?" Karp pondered. "I think there were some issues with his previous performance. Should we inform Tina?"

Besides the retired group on vacation, there is another group of naval personnel with serious jobs. Their job is to keep an eye on the pirates on the island so that they can be captured after the event.

"Let them know!" Crane said.

Zephyr took out a Den Den Mushi and started dialing. The Navy had a rather disliked attitude towards the CP organization.

After all, those people didn't do much serious work; they were always causing trouble.

Not to mention that the two sides are enemies now, so there's no need for them to hold back.

"Zeff-sensei, is there something you need?" Tina's voice came through the Den Den Mushi.

"I've found a CP member. You can take over and investigate him while you're at it."

While he was speaking, Garp had already taken action and captured the CP members.

"Okay." After the call ended, Tina gathered her team and headed to Zephyr's location.

The others who noticed the anomaly also took action, secretly following a CP member. However, there are only so many CP members on the island, so it's inevitable that several people will follow the same CP member, therefore...

"You were following him too!"

"Yes! You are too..."

The above situation occurs frequently, and those who meet it feel either embarrassed or surprised.

Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha arrived at the floating island and found Fang Rui.

He glanced at Arceus a few times. The more powerful a person is, the more they can perceive Arceus's power. There's no way they would treat it as food.

"Did you come to me to ask about those people who are planning to cause trouble?"

Upon hearing Fang Rui directly state what he wanted to ask, Madara Uchiha revealed an "I knew it" expression. "So you did know! What are you planning to do with those people?"

"No rush, they're just participants in the intermission entertainment. We can hand them over to the Navy after they've completed their mission!"

The CP members are also within the invincibility range and will not be in mortal danger.

However, their "lock-in" ability is different from the normal version. The normal version of "lock-in" will not cause injury or pain when health is reduced; it will only cause a feeling of weakness.

The CP version of the health lock will cause you to get hurt and feel pain; it only locks your health.

“…Just a tool!” Madara Uchiha retorted.

Fang Rui cast a subtle glance at him. "You used to be a tool too. Don't you ever think about yourself?"

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Unaware of Fang Rui's gaze, Uchiha Madara asked.

"Yes, we'll help evacuate the civilians when the time comes."

Not getting hurt doesn't mean not panicking. Considering the tourists' experience, Fang Rui felt that some people should be arranged to rescue ordinary people to prevent their gaming experience from being terrible.

Ninjas are well-suited for this mission because they possess the ability to create clones, allowing one person to act as several, dozens, or even hundreds of people...

“Okay!” Madara Uchiha did not refuse and readily agreed.

Chapter 484 During the event

bang~

As the smoke dissipated, the shadow clone's memories returned to its original form.

"Shadow clones are so convenient!"

Fang Rui sighed, even though every time his clone who stayed in Biyou Village to handle affairs returned, the repetitive and monotonous memories would hit him like a hammer, always making him feel dazed for a moment.

"I feel like there's something off about your tone," Arceus remarked from the side.

"Is that so?" Fang Rui didn't care about Arceus's evaluation. After all, Tobirama Senju's purpose in researching the Shadow Clone Technique was to share the tedious work.

Possesses independent thinking ability, can help with work, and can regain relevant memories; a perfect tool.

Arceus didn't delve into that matter, but instead brought up another thing: "The thing that person came to report earlier..."

"Yes, that's the most pressing issue on Delta Island right now. If it's not handled properly, it will cause a lot of trouble."

"Please be more careful when you make up excuses. That's not what you said before."

Don't worry about it, the thought is what counts.

Fang Rui gave a very perfunctory answer.

“I find you very boring,” Arceus said.

"Yes, I agree." Fang Rui's tone was full of agreement; he really didn't have any goals to strive for recently.

"But you're just as boring, you're always sleeping."

“I cannot refute this.” Arceus, whose daily life revolves around sleeping, whether in his true form or as an avatar, indicated that he had no right to refute this.
