Ninja World: I Have a Life Simulator

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Fugaku Ambushed, The Six Paths of Pain Attack



According to the life simulator, the Five Kage Summit would end in five days, after which an ambush by the Six Paths of Pain would occur on the way back to Konoha!

This meant that time was extremely tight for Uchiha Akira!

If he could reach the Land of Iron within five days, everything would be fine. If it took longer, the situation would become dangerous.

Moreover, the later it got, the more dangerous it would become.

The life simulator hadn't provided a precise timeline of when or where the attack would happen after the summit ended.

The closer it got to the actual event, the clearer the information would become!

For example, if the attack was to happen tomorrow, it might even specify the exact time and location!

Just like when he was attacked by Orochimaru back in the day!

The people of Konoha were all stunned, watching Akira leave in such a hurry, with expressions of shock on their faces!

What could make Uchiha Akira so anxious? He didn't even have time to properly say his goodbyes or give instructions?

"Looks like something major has happened!" Konan, sitting in the Uchiha residence, murmured to herself as she watched Akira leave in a rush.

Having been by Akira's side for several months, she had always seen him prepared for everything, exuding confidence.

This was the first time Konan saw him in such a hurry, indicating that something urgent must have happened—and something major at that!

It wasn't just Konan; everyone who saw Akira leave so hastily thought the same and began discussing what could possibly have caused such a drastic reaction from him.

The gatekeepers of Konoha, Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki, also looked stunned as they watched Akira's figure disappear into the distance.

They exchanged glances, noting that Akira was moving at full speed. Where could he be heading?

The only Super-Kage level shinobi in the world, combined with top-level Shunshin no Jutsu, Akira's speed was simply astonishing!

"Where could Lord Akira be heading? He looked to be in such a hurry!"

"Not sure, could it be something major?"

The current shinobi world often faced major events, like the recent news of Yugito Nii, the jinchūriki from the Hidden Cloud Village, being killed by the Akatsuki.

Kotetsu and Izumo whispered to each other.

A short while later, an Anbu wearing a mask arrived at the village gate using the Body Flicker Technique!

"The cabinet wants to know which direction Lord Akira went just now?" the Anbu asked Kotetsu and Izumo.

"Lord Akira headed this way!" Both Kotetsu and Izumo pointed towards the north of Konoha.

Hearing this, the Anbu remained silent for a moment, his masked expression unreadable, before using the Body Flicker Technique to return and report.

"North? That direction leads to the Land of Iron!" Shikaku Nara said in the cabinet next to the Hokage's office after hearing the direction Akira had taken.

"Could something have happened at the Five Kage Summit?" The other cabinet members' expressions changed at Shikaku's words.

"No matter what has happened, as long as Lord Akira gets there, it should be fine!" Not wanting the atmosphere to become heavy, Shikaku reassured them.

After a brief discussion, the cabinet decided to keep the news under wraps.

After all, if the situation wasn't confirmed yet, revealing it would only cause unnecessary panic among the villagers.

While Konoha was dealing with the situation, Akira rushed towards the Land of Iron at an incredible speed!

Geographically, the Land of Iron was situated between the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning, directly north of Konoha, and closer than to the other major villages.

However, even with this proximity, it was still a cross-country journey, not just to the border but to the very heart of the Land of Iron-the capital!

Even with Akira's Super-Kage level strength and his top-tier Body Flicker Technique, there was no guarantee that he could make it within five days!

Fortunately, Akira's situation was different from others. His chakra might deplete quickly, but he had the life simulator to restore his chakra once a day!

He performed a life simulation in the morning, and when his chakra was depleted in the afternoon, he would extract the chakra reward, fully restoring his reserves!

At night, Akira would take time to rest.

The next morning, he would use 10 million Ryo for another life simulation and continue his journey, replenishing his chakra in the afternoon as needed!

With over 50 million ryo, Akira had enough funds to perform five life simulations.

Thus, on the fourth day, Akira finally entered the Land of Iron.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, he approached the capital of the Land of Iron!

In just five days, Akira had traveled from Konoha to the heart of the Land of Iron-a speed that would shock the entire shinobi world!

It was like someone crossing a vast country in just a few days on a bicycle!

His extraordinary speed, coupled with the life simulator's chakra restoration, allowed Akira to travel at twice the speed of an ordinary shinobi!

A long-distance sprint wasn't just about who had the better Body Flicker Technique; it was about who had greater endurance!

While Akira had been traveling for several days...

In the Land of Iron, Fugaku had warned the other Kage to be cautious of a potential ambushNôv(el)B\\jnn

by the Akatsuki.

The Kage took Fugaku's warning seriously, knowing that such an attack was entirely possible. They nodded solemnly before parting ways.

Fugaku, along with his escorts Kakashi and Jiraiya, began making their way back to Konoha.

Jiraiya was a veteran Kage-level shinobi, with strength equal to Fugaku's!

Kakashi possessed a Mangekyō Sharingan, with powerful space-time abilities. With three Kage-level shinobi traveling together, Fugaku wasn't worried about his safety!

Moreover, during the Five Kage Summit, every Kage had brought two guards, but only he had two Kage-level shinobi by his side. This gave him an edge in negotiations, solidifying his influence at the summit!

After all, the strength of a nation determines its voice in negotiations!

Konoha was no longer the village it had been when Fugaku first took over-lacking in Kage- level strength!

Uchiha Fugaku had come to power by overthrowing the Third Hokage's regime. To legitimize his leadership, he needed to prove that Konoha had grown stronger under his rule! Otherwise, no matter how much he discredited the Third Hokage, it would be meaningless if

he couldn't lead Konoha to a better future!

Around ten miles out of the Land of Iron's capital, Jiraiya suddenly spoke up, "Wait!"

The three of them immediately stopped!

"Jiraiya-sensei, your senses are still as sharp as ever!" The voice of the Deva Path of Pain echoed as he stepped out from the shadows!

"It's him!" Seeing the Deva Path, Kakashi and Fugaku's faces turned grim.

During the Chunin Exams, when Konoha was attacked, Kakashi witnessed the battle between

the Deva Path and Uchiha Akira.

He hadn't expected to encounter him here today!

"It seems it's not just the Kazekage who might face an ambush; even I'm being targeted!"

Realizing the hostile intent, Fugaku thought to himself.

"Yahiko, why do you have Nagato's Rinnegan?" Jiraiya demanded as he recognized the Deva

Path.

"Your strength is indeed formidable, but taking on all three of us alone is impossible, isn't it?" Kakashi pushed up his forehead protector, revealing his Sharingan.

"Indeed, alone it would be challenging, so..."

The Deva Path nodded slightly, ignoring Jiraiya's question and instead answering Kakashi.

As his words ended, several figures stepped out from the shadows, revealing the other Paths

of Pain!

Each of them wore the same black cloak adorned with red clouds and had identical purple Rinnegan eyes! The sight made Fugaku and his companions' expressions change drastically! Six pairs of Rinnegan? How could this be possible? It was terrifying enough for one person to possess a Rinnegan-how could there be six pairs?

Moreover, if one Deva Path was already so formidable, now there were six Paths of Pain?

"You misunderstand. Even though it's six against three, the reality is that my side still outnumbers yours!" With all the Paths of Pain revealed the Deva Path continued.

"Stay alert and work together!" Seeing the Six Paths of Pain, Fugaku's face grew solemn as he instructed Kakashi and Jiraiya.

Faced with such a situation, their priority was survival and gathering as much information on

the six Rinnegan as possible!

However, the Paths of Pain gave them no chance for further discussion. Though there were six bodies, they were all controlled by Nagato, with no need for coordination between them.

Thus, without any verbal exchange, the Six Paths launched their attack, rushing toward

Fugaku's group!

Each of the Six Paths possessed Kage-level strength, and with all six being controlled by the same person, with a shared vision, their coordination was unparalleled.

The battle began, and the Six Paths of Pain, with their numerical advantage, quickly gained

the upper hand against Fugaku and his companions...
