I'm just an internet cafe owner

"Even so, are there still many losses? It seems Konoha's plans need to be adjusted..."

The biggest loss from this Nine-Tails incident was the stampede, which resulted in 23 people sustaining minor injuries. Additionally, several members of the Anbu were injured when they recklessly charged into the barrier without first identifying who had released it.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi's information was synchronized, the Anbu were mainly responsible for protecting the evacuation of the population.

"This is such a headache!"

Minato Namikaze felt he had more work to do, and he really wanted to slack off.

But when he was reviewing the intelligence, he received a special message from his informant.

"The Uchiha clan has been forbidden from participating in the war, as has the Root..."

Minato Namikaze pondered. Ever since he became Hokage, he had sensed an undercurrent within Konoha. If Konoha was a large tree, perhaps some of its roots had rotted away.

In the past, when he was less experienced and lacked the strength to suppress these people, and his prestige was only barely enough to qualify him as Hokage, he dared not act recklessly. But this time, he could use the fact that the Nine-Tails was defeated and that he could create a barrier 'alone' to gain some influence.

But before that, he needs to talk to someone from the Uchiha clan.

According to the Third Hokage and his advisors, the Uchiha clan is an extreme clan. Especially after the Nine-Tails was controlled by the Sharingan, the Uchiha clan was thrust into the spotlight.

But at the same time, he also knew that now was the best time to bring the Uchiha clan into his own camp.

"Danzo?"

Minato Namikaze's tenure was very short, but fortunately, Hiruzen Sarutobi placed absolute trust in him, entrusting him with all power and informants. Unlike the Third Hokage's somewhat conciliatory policies, Minato was much bolder, especially with the help of the First and Second Hokage, which allowed him to do more.

If everyone was united in their goal of defeating the Nine-Tails during this incident, then Minato Namikaze wouldn't have acted so hastily. He's still young; he could have waited a few years to gradually weaken their power.

But now, he can improve his strength at internet cafes, and Kushina already possesses sufficient power. Furthermore, the Nine-Tails incident greatly enhanced his fame.

He was going to move some of his plans forward.

While doing these things, he needed to allow the 'old-timers' who were still fighting on the front lines to retire.

One order after another was issued. Some of these orders were planned in advance, while others were conceived after experiencing the biohazard crisis and witnessing different world policies and ideologies.

1. Expand planting: Use the new seeds obtained from Minato Namikaze to plant on a large scale.

2. Expand the enrollment of ninja academies. Ninjas are no longer just weapons in battle. They are divided into combat ninjas and life ninjas, who are engaged in farming, construction, and innovation. The ninja academies are also being improved.

3. At the same time, the ninja rating method will be changed, and ninjas can no longer be judged solely based on chakra and ninjutsu power.

4. Combat ninjas should be judged based on their overall combat strength, while life-oriented ninjas should be rated based on their overall contribution to Konoha.

5. Re-recruit a think tank, with the Uchiha clan allowed to participate, to weaken the clan's status and increase the number of commoner ninjas. The ratio of commoners to clan members must reach 8:2.

Minato Namikaze, who issued these orders, ignored what those people were going to do and instead called Kakashi directly into his office.

"Kakashi, come with me later. You are not allowed to tell anyone what you see."

"!!!"

Kakashi had a vague sense of unease.

The order had just been issued, and they were taking him out; he interpreted this as an order to take action against those guys.

Kakashi was excited. He knew that those guys were the ones who had killed his father. He couldn't kill them, but he absolutely couldn't let them continue to hold power. If they did, his tragedy would only be repeated in other people's lives.

"What you're thinking about will be taken care of when you get back, but for now..."

Minato Namikaze received a notification that the internet cafe was opening, and he immediately took Kakashi inside.

"Welcome to Mind Space Internet Cafe, sir/madam. How many hours will you be using the computer?"

Upon hearing Liu Yuan's question, Minato Namikaze replied without hesitation, "Give him one copy of every game, and let Kurama pay for it!"

Okay~

Liu Yuan smiled. Although he couldn't trick Kushina into selling the Nine-Tails directly, profiting from the fox's power every day was still a huge windfall for the internet cafe. He'd heard from the system that it had used the Nine-Tails' power to trade with the main god. One day's power could be sold for a day and a half's worth of internet access money—that was the allure of being a middleman making a profit.

Liu Yuan and the system never make a losing deal.

Chapter Sixty: Tina's Completion Reward Selection

"Where am I...?"

Kakashi used his Sharingan to survey his surroundings, but as the eyepatch was removed, he felt a chill. The man before him appeared gentle and refined, yet he unleashed a power more terrifying than that of a tailed beast.

He immediately covered his Sharingan, and the chill disappeared as soon as he did so.

"Excuse me, sir, please do not use your abilities indiscriminately within our shop. If you harm anyone, you will be blacklisted!"

Minato Namikaze waved his hand and laughed, "I'm a little nervous since it's my first time."

After the introductions, Minato Namikaze led Kakashi onto the plane. A few minutes after they boarded, Kushina also came in.

"Huh? Kakashi's here too~"

"Teacher's wife!!"

At that moment, Kakashi felt a little confused, but fortunately, with the guidance of Minato Namikaze and Kushina, he quickly realized what he could do and what he should do.

He was pulled into a Red Alert 5v3 match by Minato Namikaze.

That's right, it's 5v3. Kakashi is from episode 5, and Minato Namikaze is from episode 3.

Most people who play Red Alert are already very skilled, but skill is one thing, but differences in talent, ability, and experience mean that everyone's performance in battle is completely different.

Just like Zhongli and Riku, both of them successfully defeated named computer opponents in 1v1. Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze and 08 fought evenly, which can be considered a human-computer level match.

As a result, recently it's become popular for others to challenge the three of them. If it's a small, 1v1 situation, it's very difficult for the three of them to win. But if the three of them are side by side, it's a major battle.

If they're not close together, it'll be a massive battle where they get ganged up on by others.

The difference in command can only be seen when the strength is roughly equal. If the opponent builds a power plant and a barracks at the start, and then mindlessly swaps bases with bunker infantry, let alone those few, even if artificial intelligence were alive, they might not be able to win.

Because it's not just one company doing this, it's everyone.

At the front desk, Liu Yuan wasn't watching everyone play games today; instead, he was picking out new ones. The new employee bought a bunch of games and also a set of office software, which made Liu Yuan quite wealthy.

With everyone's spending these past few days, Liu Yuan will be able to buy another game within a few days of the store opening.

Let's pick and choose for now, and once we have enough money, we'll go straight to the new games.

Minato Namikaze has already brought two people to the internet cafe. At this rate, he will bring more people in the future. And games are something you never lose money on. When new players come, whether it's a new game or an old game, having more choices will attract more people.

After searching for a long time, he still couldn't find a particularly suitable game genre.

Cultivation? Fantasy? Urban? Future technology? There are so many types of games, and some small games don't perform well on consoles, but they can feel really good when played as real games.

For example

On the NES, Contra was just a little character shooting and jumping around. But in the real-life version, it's like you're fighting alien monsters all by yourself. The difficulty increases dramatically, the gaming experience increases dramatically, and the rewards for completing the game increase dramatically as well.

But just as he was seriously considering what to choose, Tina waved her hand.

"what happened?"

Tina pointed to the computer: "I beat the game...reward..."

She has already completed Resident Evil Veronica, Dark Chronicles, and Resident Evil 4. Tina, as an 'experimental subject,' is highly sought after by all organizations. In the game's storyline, she's constantly being captured, one organization after another, and all organizations conduct various studies after obtaining virus samples.

The good news is that this research has produced a fusion agent. A perfect fusion agent can fuse Gastrea virus and Veronica virus together while maintaining a human form.

The downside is that this thing needs to be frozen for at least ten years after use to mitigate the conflict between viruses.

Ten years is a long time, but although this thing is not needed for the time being, it gives Tina a good start.

As a perfectly embodying character, Veronica is the younger brother of the Asif siblings in this generation's storyline.

In Veronica and the Dark Chronicles, Tina's role is limited to fighting with Claire, beating up Wesker, and then helping Leon resolve a village's virus outbreak while also rescuing a girl who was also infected with the virus.

Finally, during a book club meet-and-greet with Aishiri, she was captured by a strange organization. Aishiri was used as a bargaining chip, and she was used as an experimental subject.

Tina was at a loss for words when it came to this plot. In the game, she seemed to be cursed with bad luck, always appearing wherever trouble struck. Even Leon wondered if she was some hidden mastermind.

In reality, however, that's not the case. Whether it's the plot or Tina's own wishes, her goal is to prevent the virus from threatening lives anymore. Because in the game, her setting is still that the virus will mutate if the infection rate exceeds 50%.

So, starting with the fourth generation, after she and Pear were rescued by Leon, their journey was nothing but fighting and killing, dealing with villagers infected with the virus, monsters in the lake, and the corrupted special forces members they had encountered before.

To Tina's delight, she met Ada Wong there. After praising Leon to Ada's face, the two secretly arranged a time and place to meet. As for what happened afterward, Tina had no idea.

After everything was settled, Tina looked at the completion information and decided to claim the rewards for completing three consecutive generations of games. However, she encountered a problem when she got to the claiming screen.

I have absolutely no idea what to choose.

She had seen the effects of the Perfect T-Virus and the T-Veronica Virus. According to the system description, the Perfect Virus would not produce any side effects after use, and the Veronica Virus didn't even require a ten-year freeze; it could be used directly. Besides these, there were some firearms and some knowledge. Using these two viruses could even completely neutralize the side effects of the Gastrea Virus, but this thing had a drawback: it was a one-time use item.

There are also knowledge-based categories, such as pathological knowledge, experimental knowledge, or methods for building weapons and equipment, etc.

These three generations involve a lot of things, so the rewards for completing them are very generous. The only downside is that there are still no Gastrea-related rewards after completing these three generations.

It's not that there isn't any; for example, this tracker infected with both T-virus and gastrulatory virus is incredibly skilled, but she has absolutely no use for this stuff.

Liu Yuan looked at Tina's selection screen, thought for a long time, and then gave his suggestion.

"If you want to be able to take in a large number of children in the future, this, this, and this are essential. Minato and the others can only provide you with food, while what you need to do is improve yourselves."

Liu Yuan chose 'Semi-AI System', 'Mechanized Production Line', and 'Complete Guide to Experimental Knowledge' for him. Since it was the third generation of the game, there were nine rewards to choose from. Liu Yuan helped him choose these three, and he said that he could choose any of the remaining six. Even the most basic weapons and equipment would be of great help to Tina.

Tina chose two perfect viruses. Now she's using the fungal virus, which prevents the gastrulatory virus from further eroding her body. With these two new viruses, she can now find a genius to help her.

And she did indeed have a goal.

Chishou Natsuyo, the organization's chosen one with the dolphin factor, possesses an exceptionally high IQ of 210. If I can recruit her into my team, she can help with the research and production of the Gastrea Virus effective drug when I achieve a perfect clear.

Chapter Sixty-One: The Veronica Virus and Natsuyo Senju

A momentous event recently occurred in the Tokyo area: the Seven Stars Relic appeared and was stolen. Police from across the Tokyo area were mobilized to fight for the relic.

Inside the room, Tina learned the reason for this incident from Hiruko Kohina.

According to Hiruko Kohina, her father once wanted to seize the Seven Stars Legacy and summon a Stage 5 Gastrea, but he was killed by Liu Yuan before he could act. Although she knew about her father's plan, she did not know the specific reasons.

Is that so?

Tina began to think of a solution. According to the information she had, this Seven Star Legacy could summon a Stage 5 Gastrea, but she didn't know how to summon it.

"and many more!!!"

She had a vague, bad feeling about it; she recalled the scene in Resident Evil Veronica where the fusion was just one day away from completion.

What that woman from the US virus said.

"Tina, the person who created the virus in your body is a genius. You have a talent far surpassing mine, but unfortunately, you cannot control them. Today, I will devour you and make you a part of me."

Then Tina and Chris took her away with a rocket launcher.
