"Forget it."
Uchiha Itachi lowered his eyes dejectedly.
He was already terminally ill, and he had no desire to cling to life, so dying with regret was also a kind of ending.
"Go to the Rain Country and see; some people there are doing quite well."
Fang Yi saw through his thoughts and said, "Some things, you will only believe when you see them with your own eyes. Perhaps it can change your attitude towards life."
Players with golden potential are considered some of the most outstanding lives that can be nurtured in the Ninja World.
Since they are willing to dedicate and sacrifice for Konoha, why can't they be squeezed dry by him, or become his dogs?
If he had to pay money to make someone fight for him, Fang Yi would definitely be unwilling, but if he could just slightly guide them to drain their last bit of essence, he would be very willing to do so.
To be honest,
Uchiha Itachi was heinous, but to those who brainwashed him, he was a very sharp tool.
Looking at the Ninja World, even the protagonists, who were hailed as the twins of destiny, did not have as many cheats as Uchiha Itachi.
Sasuke and Naruto wanted to become stronger; one had to outwit Orochimaru and then be beaten by various masters, while the other was a long-term bottom-feeder, conquering the world with Rasengan and diligently cultivating with Jiraiya.
Both of them had powerful enemies they could only defeat by going all out.
However, most of the battles involving Uchiha Itachi were resolved with an almost effortless demeanor, breaking stalemates that seemed impossible to overcome.
For all enemies who encountered Uchiha Itachi, there were only two words:
Unsolvable.
Is the Great Toad's stomach prison invincible? Then I'll just use Amaterasu flames.
Is Orochimaru difficult to seal? I'll just use the Totsuka Blade and Yata Mirror.
Reanimation Jutsu? I have a trump card, Kotoamatsukami!
The biggest mastermind of the Fourth Great Ninja War, Sage Yakushi Kabuto? I'll directly release the invincible genjutsu, Izanami.
It's like the duels in the 'Head-Patting Village': I'm a high-burst instant-kill type, you counter with strong crowd control; I bring out a crowd control lineup, and you switch to Gaara, Ino, and Silent Sound for a rogue anti-control team.
To some extent, this was also a favor from the world's consciousness.
"Rain Country?"
Uchiha Itachi murmured.
Isn't that the Akatsuki's headquarters?
Uchiha Itachi had always perfectly executed all of Akatsuki's missions without any mistakes, but he deeply detested and disagreed with the Akatsuki organization from the bottom of his heart.
Amassing wealth, collecting Tailed Beasts, instigating wars.
This purely violent and bloody Akatsuki was the biggest tumor in the Ninja World.
But the Game Merchant in front of him said that the way to quell the war he sought was to be found in the Rain Country?
Strange.
Suddenly, Uchiha Itachi remembered a rather strange incident that had occurred recently.
Whenever the Akatsuki gathered, the female ninja codenamed White Tiger, who had always accompanied the leader, had not appeared for a long time.
Generally speaking,
If an Akatsuki member died, the leader would directly announce it and forcibly recruit new members to fill the vacancy, so it was likely that White Tiger was not dead.
Could there be a hidden reason?
Uchiha Itachi's thoughts churned, but his expression remained normal as he nodded and said, "I understand, Mr. Merchant. If I have the chance, I will visit the Rain Country."
"Alright, then I wish you two a pleasant game."
Fang Yi smiled, waved his hand gently, and removed the illusion in front of them.
If Uchiha Itachi were to become a Jujutsu Sorcerer and then die for Sasuke, it would actually be the best choice for him.
Uchiha Itachi, as fanatical as a madman, even after killing all his clansmen, still believed he was on the right path, facing death with composure.
Once he followed his guidance, saw the seeds Konan had sown in the Rain Country, understood true hope, and realized his mistakes, he might suffer a mental breakdown, fall into an endless abyss, and become a true madman...
But these were all Uchiha Itachi's own choices.
As a Game Merchant, he would not save anyone; he would only maximize profits while adhering to rules and bottom lines.
After Konan became a player, she actively participated in various activities. Akatsuki's reserve funds were largely poured into the game, and she led some small ninjas from the Rain Village and civilians from the Rain Country in infrastructure development.
They had a great harvest of grain and, utilizing the special environment of the Rain Country, cultivated aquatic products and some fungal plants.
Konan was even willing to give up some of the game's profits in exchange for commercial transactions with Sunagakure in reality.
With the enthusiastic cooperation of the civilians, coupled with the ninjas' natural high mobility, many areas in the Rain Country underwent tremendous changes in a short period.
The two disturbances that were on the verge of breaking out due to poverty and hardship were silently quelled.
Previously, such unrest within the Rain Country always required Nagato to control the Six Paths of Pain to suppress it with absolute power.
Those eyes filled with hatred, those unyielding hard bones, even after being killed, still sprouted like bamboo shoots, one after another.
Repeatedly, they refused to submit.
But this time, Akatsuki did nothing, yet the other party began to actively express goodwill and a willingness to engage.
Even Konan, who had accomplished these things, felt it was incredibly easy.
"They are just civilians dissatisfied with the current situation of the Rain Country, just like we were back then."
After Konan personally interacted with the rioters, she showed a look of sudden realization.
It turned out that she and Nagato had also unknowingly become like Hanzo, high above, failing to perceive such a simple truth.
"Pain cannot quell war."
This was the first time Konan and Nagato had a quarrel.
"Don't be ridiculous!"
Nagato, with tubes inserted all over his body, gaunt ribs, and a face like a demon, gasped violently.
He was very angry.
No matter how gentle Konan's tone or how sincere her attitude, it could not reach the depths of his heart.
He wouldn't listen.
The Game Merchant from the Otherworld, a new path to saving the world, peaceful development, making everyone feel happiness and joy—
Inciting people!
These things absolutely could not bring peace!
Didn't those high and mighty nobles feel enough happiness? Yet they still exploited commoners and oppressed the world; they had no remorse.
Only by making everyone feel pain, by experiencing the despair of war, can their last shred of lucky be completely shattered. Only when everyone experiences the same suffering as us can the world achieve peace.
"Feeling pain can only bring temporary peace."
Konan shook her head and said, "Pain will be diluted by time, just like the Great Ninja Wars. After each war, there is a brief period of peace, but if we continue to maintain such a distorted and childish system, war will still break out again."
Nagato's voice was hoarse as he angrily said, "Then I will continue to bring them pain!"
"In that case, can it still be called peace?"
Konan looked at the stubborn Nagato, unsure what to do.
All she could do was continue, to let her friend see the changes in the Rain Country, to let him see the happy smiles on the faces of the common people.
Hidden Mist Village, Office Building.
Mei Terumi rubbed her forehead; she had been working almost non-stop during this period.
Not only did she have to lead her team to continuously clear the Hell-level [Dead Soul Camp] to obtain materials for activating the family token, but after returning to reality, she also had to deal with various official documents.
Even with the help of consultants, the documents still piled up like mountains.
"Mizukage-sama."
Chojuro knelt on the ground and reported, "The Suikazan family has developed a medicine called [Nourishing Essence Pill] and is willing to sell it to the village at an extremely low price."
"What is its effect?"
"It's the same as the Nourishing Essence Pill sold in the Game Store; it can quickly restore Chakra without any side effects and can be taken continuously. The Store sells one for twenty reward points, but the Suikazan family only wants ten reward points."
"Good. Thank the Suikazan clan head for me."
This was relatively good news for Mei Terumi, and her agitated mood eased slightly.
The Ninja World also had items that could quickly restore Chakra, which were military rations pills.
However, ninjas generally wouldn't take them lightly. These pills, similar to stimulants or narcotics, could quickly restore stamina and enhance Chakra, but they excessively strained cells and had strong side effects.
Seeing Mei Terumi's expression soften, the honest Chojuro dared to continue his report.
"Mizukage-sama, a player dropped a low-quality family token in the Hell-level [Dead Soul Camp]."
