Chapter 4 - Shiro's Journey - The Unpredictable Fate

[In the end, Naruto still wasn't willing to leave the village.]

[Deep down, he still had a strong affection for Konoha.]

[More importantly, he had developed feelings for a girl his age—Sakura Haruno.]

[Although you were surprised that Naruto had already fallen in love at such a young age, you could also understand his reasoning.]

[So, you tied up Sakura and took both of them, fleeing from Konoha.]

[This action solidified your reputation as the "Nine-Tailed Fox."]

"Well, well, well! So this is the move you're pulling?!"

Seeing that Naruto didn't want to leave Konoha, Shiro thought there wasn't much else he could do as the Nine-Tails, but then Naruto decided to take Sakura along. With this, Naruto had no reason to stay in Konoha anymore.

This move... Strong! Really strong!

[In year 81, you began to teach Naruto to cultivate his abilities.]

[At this point, you realized you weren't suited to be Naruto's teacher.]

[Your strength came from being a tailed beast with immense chakra, but you didn't have much knowledge to offer him about ninja training.]

[Naruto's progress stalled, but his relationship with Sakura advanced by leaps and bounds.]

[After much thought, you decided to find a better teacher for Naruto.]

[Coincidentally, Orochimaru had defected from Konoha. You believed that as one of the legendary Sannin, Orochimaru definitely had the skills to teach Naruto how to become a true ninja.]

[With this resolve, you set out with Naruto and Sakura to find Orochimaru.]

Shiro: _!

Orochimaru?! Of all people, you had to choose Orochimaru?

This guy defected from Konoha and even joined the Akatsuki! The Akatsuki's goal is to capture the Tailed Beasts!

Shiro sensed trouble ahead...

The simulation continues.

[After many hardships, you finally found Orochimaru.]

[Orochimaru was delighted to see you and readily accepted Naruto and Sakura as his disciples.]

[After handing over Naruto and Sakura to Orochimaru, you decided to continue the journey you had left unfinished, while also looking for any trace of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.]

[On your journey, many ninja tried to capture you. Various sealing techniques were used against you, but you easily broke out of every one of them.]

[In the process of battling these ninja, you killed many of them.]

[Your name, "Nine-Tailed Fox," began to echo across the entire ninja world.]

[In year 86, still having found no trace of Minato, you decided to end your journey and check in on Naruto.]

[By this time, Naruto, under Orochimaru's tutelage, had reached the strength of a competent Chunin, at the very least.]

[You were pleased with his progress.]

[You then created a summoning scroll and signed a contract with Naruto, making him your summoner.]

[In a cheerful mood, you didn't notice something strange. Orochimaru, who had always preferred to avoid unnecessary adornments, now wore a strange ring on his left hand...]

Sigh...

Shiro shook his head. It seemed like Orochimaru had joined the Akatsuki. Things were about to get complicated.

[In year 87, you bid farewell to Naruto once again.]

[You heard rumors that Minato had been seen in the Land of Iron, so you set out to investigate.]

[In the Land of Iron, you didn't find Minato, but on your way back, you received a summoning call.]

[You responded, only to find that the one summoning you wasn't Naruto, but Orochimaru, dressed in the Akatsuki's black cloak, along with Pain's Six Paths.]

[Naruto and Sakura were lying in a pool of blood.]

Smack!

Shiro slapped his forehead.

"Figures, in the end, the prince gets killed by his own misfortune."

[You felt an unexpected surge of anger and immediately went into a rampage. You fought Orochimaru and Pain's Six Paths.]

[Orochimaru fled in disgrace. You destroyed five of Pain's Six Paths, leaving only the Deva Path to struggle.]

[The mastermind behind the scenes, Nagato, also known as Pain, appeared, summoning the Ten Tails to attempt to seal you within it.]

[You broke the Ten Tails' seal and freed yourself, unleashing ten continuous Tailed Beast Bombs at Nagato and the Deva Path.]

[The Deva Path was destroyed on the spot, while Nagato was saved by Konan, who was hiding in the shadows.]

[You chased them to the Rain Village, where you encountered more members of the Akatsuki—Sasori, Deidara, Itachi Uchiha, Kakuzu, Hidan...]

[Anyone who dared stand in your way was ruthlessly destroyed.]

Seeing himself wreak havoc as the Nine-Tails, Shiro felt a surge of excitement and couldn't help but want to shout—"Nine-Tails is awesome!"

[You finally reached the Rain Village and found Nagato and Konan.]

[Just as you were about to deal the final blow, the Ten Tails suddenly emerged from behind you, its roots stabbing into your body, rapidly draining your chakra.]

[Since the roots didn't trap you, no door with a lock appeared in your mind.]

[With no other choice, you collapsed helplessly.]

[A masked man descended from the head of the Ten Tails.]

"It's you!"

Shiro instantly recognized the masked man as the one who killed Kushina, but he was now unable to take revenge.

[The masked man looked at you coldly, saying not a word.]

[Soon, your chakra was completely consumed by the Ten Tails.]

[Without chakra to support you, you died.]

Simulation Ended

"Are you kidding me?!"

Died so suddenly?

One moment, I was destroying everything in my path, and the next moment... Game over?!

This massive twist almost blinded Shiro's eyes.

Shiro felt like the story was moving too fast, and he was left in complete confusion.

[Simulation has ended. The system is calculating the score, please wait...]

[The score for this simulation life is...]
