[Ding~ The holder can equip one title for free]
[If you want to equip multiple titles, you may unlock additional slots with 10, 100, 1000... Simulation Points]
"Exponential scaling? Who the hell can afford that?" Uchiha Kirin couldn't help but complain.
Still, even a single title brought excellent effects. Expensive or not, as long as it was under 1000 points, he was confident he could unlock more slots in the future.
"System, equip the title: Desert Reaper!"
[Ding~ Title equipped]
Uchiha Kirin activated his Sharingan and focused his senses—but felt nothing unusual. It seemed the effects of the title would only activate once the simulation began and he actually entered the desert.
[Simulation Begin]
[Loot System Target Set—Uchiha Izumi]
[7:00 AM]
You lock yourself in your room and sift through a pile of scrolls to find the token and contract scroll of Boss Black Cat. You sign the contract and summon him immediately.
You activate your three-tomoe Sharingan on the spot and demonstrate a Fire Release jutsu on par with a Kekkei Genkai. With an impassioned speech about traveling through space-time to save the Uchiha clan, you easily win over Boss Black Cat.
He tells you to just call him Kuro.
Together, you sort through the various items you brought. Scrolls, manuscripts, and the like are all categorized and stored at Kuro's home in the Land of Ninja Cats.
You sell the Great Fireball and Clone Jutsu scrolls at the Cat Market for a low price, earning 300,000 ryō in travel funds.
You keep only your Black-Blade Tachi and a chakra alloy-infused custom kunai as your main and backup weapons.
[8:00 AM]
You ask about the Reverse Summoning Technique, hoping Kuro can use it to teleport you out of the barrier after you deactivate the Reverse Summoning Disruption Barrier.
To your surprise, he flatly refuses.
Kuro explains that large summoning beast clans like the Ninja Cats, the White Apes, and even the three great Sage Lands all exist in isolated pocket dimensions carved out within the void of the shinobi world.
They're connected through gateways established within the shinobi world—or in some cases, have no gateways at all and rely purely on summoning techniques to link them.
But nowadays, except for the three Sage Lands, the rest of the summoning beast clans no longer have the power to maintain their dimensional spaces. Unlike the Sage Lands that have powerful sages to uphold them, the others must rely solely on sealing techniques to slow the rate of spatial collapse—they can't open up new dimensions.
The Ninja Cat homeland is fragile. Even the Ninja Cats themselves rarely reside there. Only the clan head, Sage, and a few sealing specialists remain stationed long-term. Most Ninja Cats treat the place like a storage depot, living in the shinobi world most of the time and only returning occasionally.
In fact, a large number of them are temp workers and don't even have a home in the clan's dimension.
If a ninja—especially one as powerful as you—were to enter rashly, the unstable space could very well collapse!
You exhale slowly and decide to go with a fallback plan—
Stir the waters.
You pull out paper and ink and write two letters.
Then, you ask Kuro to fetch three summoning scrolls from the Ninja Cat clan and convince the cats on them to sign without resistance and fully cooperate with your plan.
You use the money from selling the scrolls to buy Explosive Tags—every last one you can get your hands on.
Kuro nods. But to give orders to other Ninja Cats, he reluctantly tells them you are the reincarnation of Uchiha Madara. You agree.
Kuro then dispels the summoning and leaves.
[9:00 AM]
Kuro returns carrying a box of three thousand Explosive Tags and three summoning scrolls.
You take the box of tags,
Then hand over one of your letters, along with Uchiha Setsuna's manuscript and his eyes, entrusting them to Kuro. You instruct him to deliver them to Uchiha Setsuna.
After that, he and the other three Ninja Cats are to disguise themselves as ordinary strays and exit the village in batches via the academy-side gate—scouting out Konoha's defenses in the Forest of Death in advance.
You and Kuro split up.
Alone, you head to the clan compound's exit, using your own cloaking ability and Root-honed stealth skills to completely mask yourself as a completely unremarkable child.
Soon, you spot Uchiha Itachi walking Sasuke to school.
Your concealment is perfect. Itachi doesn't sense a thing. You watch the two leave.
You smile faintly and touch the kunai your Black-Blade Tachi transformed into, then quietly head toward the lakeside home of Uchiha Izumi.
[10:00 AM]
You grab a pair of gloves from a roadside stall.
You bump into Uchiha Izumi on her way out but make no move, instead brushing past her as if by chance. After she's gone, you silently slip into her house and hide.
[11:00 AM]
You continue to lie in wait for Uchiha Izumi to return.
Meanwhile, Kuro has already delivered the letter and begun arranging the escape plans for the three summoned Ninja Cats.
[12:00 Noon]
Uchiha Izumi returns home, but the moment she opens the door, you ambush her.
Completely unprepared, she's killed instantly with a standard-issue Root kunai.
You swiftly close the door. With your eyes spinning, you activate your power and draw out all the blood in Uchiha Izumi's body. You feel your bloodline strengthen further, and even your Ocular Power improves slightly.
You remove her pair of three-tomoe Sharingan and seal them into a scroll.
Then you carve several large characters into the wall with your kunai—
——The killer: Uchiha Madara!
You toss the kunai aside, burn the gloves into ash, and scatter them into the lake.
[1:00 PM]
You return to the orphanage and, while Granny Yukina is still out, leave the second letter inside the kitchen's large cooking pot.
Carrying the box of three thousand Explosive Tags, you throw on a thick black cloak to cover the chakra armor formed by the "Flame of the Infested."
The earlier kill disrupted your cloaking ability, but this chakra armor also masks your presence quite well.
[2:00 PM]
With your Root training and the unassuming appearance of a child, you easily slip past the perimeter surveillance posted by Root ninjas around the Uchiha compound.
You change into new clothes in a restroom,
Then transform into Konohamaru.
After shaking off Ebisu, you buy a box of snacks that looks just like the one containing the three thousand Explosive Tags.
Then, holding both boxes, you casually walk into the ninja academy.
As luck would have it, Uchiha Itachi is just returning from lunch with Sasuke. You brush past him, and although he gives you a strange look—thanks to the effects of the "Flame of the Infested" and your identity as the Hokage's grandson—he simply ruffles Sasuke's hair and tells him to play nice with you before leaving.
[3:00 PM]
You don't attack Sasuke immediately.
After playing with him until he's tired, you escort him back to class. Then, bypassing a few ANBU guards around the academy...
You dig open a corner of the classroom building's wall and use a technique you learned in Root to install the box of three thousand Explosive Tags as a timed bomb.
Once again, you put on your cloak—
And corner Mizuki into the restroom...
