The attention of everyone present shifted towards Ryan as they beheld the ninjutsu capable of obliterating the entire Cloud Shinobi Village.

This ninjutsu was undeniably of great magnitude. Even Sasuke, a recent addition to the group, was now comprehending the sheer might wielded by the Hokages in front of him. Regrettably, it was Second Hokage Tobirama who initially battled against me.

With Ryan as their leader, they can't help but feel that unless it's a lost cause, we're likely to be outmatched. Under the collective gaze of the assembly, Ryan remained transparently sincere.

He told the inner workings of the Great Spiralling Ring Jutsu, teaching it to the group. Originally an evolved version of the Rasengan, it stumped many with its requirements being the master of Yin-Yang Chakra.

Yet, despite this, everyone embraced the technique with joy. Could one refuse such an opportunity to learn something so powerful?

With such a small ball, this technique could fall silently from the sky and swiftly devastate an entire ninja village.

This unique display, captured by the movement proved nothing short of spectacular. Ryan's Jutsu far exceeded any semblance of Pain's prowess.

In comparison, even the destruction done by All Mighty Push paled in insignificance.

[Ryan who annihilated the Cloud Shinobi Village through the Great Rasen ring and single-handedly subdued the land of Lightning].

Having conquered the Land of Lightning, Ryan discovered that the Village's technological prowess surpassed that of Konoha.

Consequently, he initiated the assimilation of Land of Lightning's technology.

[In the second month, upon the army's return to Konoha, you ordered the construction of a scientific research institute. Orochimaru, the foremost mad Scientist and Biologist in the ninja world, was appointed as its director. Intensive technological research commenced].

[In the third month, under the pressure of being surrounded by Konoha. Onoki chose peace talks with you which led to the merger of Iwagakure in Konohagakure].

Capitalizing on Konoha's burgeoning power and your persuasive rhetoric, Onoki consented to Iwagakure's assimilation, effectively integrating it into Konoha.

Observing the narrative, the seamless integration of the Land of Earth appeared audacious.

Even Uchiha Madara and Hashirama were left speechless.

"Iwagakure was a tough nut to crack, stubborn and tenacious!"

"Why does Ryan make it seem so effortless as drinking water?"

In their world, Iwagakure was an unyielding adversary, prepared to fight Konoha to the bitter end. During the conflict, both Hashirama and Madara encountered considerable adversity.

After all, the potency of Iwagakure's Bloodline limit was Dust Release, which was not to be underestimated. One touch everything will turn into Dust. Dust to Dust Extreme.

In the fourth month, you recognized that the title of Land of Fire was a tad inappropriate for the new villages you were integrating.

[You formally declare to the entire ninja world the complete dissolution of national titles. From then on, all nations shall be collectively referred to as Konoha!]

[Within the same month, as Hokage, you officially declare an offensive on the Land of Water. Your war for the ultimate peace of the ninja world resonates with all!]

In the fifth month, due to internal turmoil within the Land of Water, you lead your forces to the nation, encountering the leaders of the nation who ultimately surrender.

Thus, the ninja world stands unified, with Konoha reigning supreme upon the continent!

At this moment, the imagery on the light screen gradually halted.

Observing Ryan's achievements, the collective Hokages present couldn't help but radiate admiration. In this instance, the assembled group witnessed the arrival of genuine peace within the ninja world.

"As expected! It's only through this path that peace can be established in the ninja world!"

"My prior notions were truly misguided!"

"I learn about it now! I understand the way forward!"

For a while, not only Hashirama or Madara but even Obito, Kakashi, and others were enlightened.

Originally, everyone had been emulating Ryan's approach. Witnessing Ryan's triumph, the ninja world finally embraced authentic peace following unification, a moment that sent waves of euphoria through the hearts of the people.

The understanding was clear: as long as they continued adhering to Ryan's footsteps, their world too would eventually bask in true peace.

Even Sasuke, once a sceptic, stood bewildered by the instance when peace was upon Ryan's world. In stark contrast to this newfound hope, Sasuke had learned of 'Uchiha Madara's' plan from his world, a plan centred around the ominous scheme of Infinite Tsukuyomi. At this moment, from Sasuke's perspective, this outlandish scheme appeared insignificant. Could this complicated plan genuinely bring peace?

Amidst the prevailing excitement, the score of Ryan's World appeared on the screen, capturing everyone's attention. The unveiling of Fourth Hokage Ryan's world's national strength left them astounded. The final score of national power stood at an impressive 1456 points.

To provide context, the difference between 999 and 1001 indicated the evaluation scale: Level 1 World Evaluation Points ranged from 10 to 1000, Level 2 World Evaluation Points from 1000 to 10000, and so forth.

Contemplating the score displayed on the screen, a collective astonishment washed over everyone. No one could have foreseen that Ryan's world's power would amass such a significant score. The score had vaulted directly to the standard of a level 2 world, surpassing all expectations.

Those who hadn't initially grasped its significance were struck with sudden realization – rewards were upgraded according to the highest world. It means the upcoming rewards were now determined by the standards of the Level 2 world. The air was filled with murmurs and exclamations:

"Spectacular!"

"Level 2 World Prize Pool!"

"What treasures and new knowledge can we get this time?"

"Who knows, but the rewards are bound to be extraordinary!"

For a moment, curiosity and anticipation permeated the atmosphere, overshadowing the curiosity to see the following rankings. Yet the light screen continued its spectacle, its rhythm unbroken. Faced with the next rankings, everyone could only continue to observe, caught up in a current of suspense.

Swiftly, the second place was likewise decided, as the story continued to unfold.

[Selection completed!]

[Second Place: Parallel World, First Hokage Uchiha Madara World!]

Witnessing his retention of the second position, a trace of a smile graced Uchiha Madara's countenance. However, as he addressed the assembly, he couldn't help but retort, "Hmph! I secured the second place last time as well!"

"Hahaha, being second is your old habit!"

"Shut up Hashirama."

Madara's ostentatious pretence invoked a collective roll of the eyes. After multiple encounters, the essence of his persona remained elusive. The arrogance was palpable!

As per custom, Madara proceeded to display the events from his world.

[Upon returning from the Hokage meeting, you followed Obito's techniques and successfully obtained the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan through the miraculous Senzu Bean.]

[Realizing that dominance in the ninja world necessitates formidable strength, you, as a single entity, aren't enough!]

[Therefore, you set your sights on your younger brother, Uchiha Izuna, bestowing him the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.]

[Without delay, you embarked on covert operations within prominent villages, priming to unify the entire ninja world at once.]

Observing Madara's strategic manoeuvres on the screen, a collective nod of agreement ensued. Essentially, after witnessing Obito's methods, those rewarded with Sharingan and Senju Beans were happy to plug out their eyes. This had become unsurprising.

[In the second month, you led Izuna and troops to the Land of Water, while Hashirama and Tobirama spearheaded an offensive against the Land of Wind.]

[Both assaults unfolded together, resulting in the successful capture of both nations!]

In the fourth month, having considered the current power of Ryan's world, you felt compelled to hasten your efforts for the first position!

[Thereafter, you launched assaults on both the Land of Lightning and the Land of Earth!]

In the sixth month, confronted with the tenacious resistance of the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning, the two villages recognized your and Hashirama's strength and thus opted for a roundabout tactic.

They would run away as soon as they see you and attack the other strongholds. The war remained in a state of tension for a while.

As the fading curtain of light caught their gaze, all eyes turned towards Uchiha Madara. None had foreseen that Madara could be stalled by such a method, which left him looking rather embarrassed amidst the onlookers' gazes. Nor did he desire this outcome.

Little had he known that these two villages diverged greatly from Ryan's world, where confrontation wasn't the norm. Their approach was one of submission rather than combat. Here, surrender wasn't associated with the life and death of some genins and Chunins.

Each time Madara personally led troops to the frontlines, they promptly withdrew. They simply refused to engage, opting instead to wait until Madara was somewhere else. It was only then that these villages would resurface, launching resistance against the Konoha army.

It was during these moments of exhaustion that the realization eluded Madara – the strategy of directly dismantling these villages. This understanding only dawned after observing Ryan's actions. He was struck with the realization that he could have saved so much time had he thought of this plan earlier.

He should have employed Susanoo alongside Hashirama's power to lay waste to both villages in one fell swoop. Regret now plagued Madara, as he mused over the missed opportunity to take the lead. Instead, he found himself relegated to the second position.

[Second Place: First Hokage Uchiha Madara's World National Power Display]

[Overall National Power Score: 963 Points]

This final score marked a significant leap from the previous 735 points – an impressive increase of 228 points. While this pace was commendable, it still fell short of Ryan's achievements. The possibility of elevating this score lay in the unification of the ninja world.

At this juncture, the assembled crowd recognized a disheartening truth: the gap between a Unified Ninja World and the current one stood at a staggering 500 points. This realization spurred unanimous agreement on the urgency of unification.

"We must hurry and the unification of the ninja world must be done as soon as possible."

"Absolutely."

"Unifying the ninja world is our swiftest path to enhancing our national strength."

"Let's return and set new plans in motion."

In this instant, a determined exchange swept through the group. The collective resolve to unify the ninja world intensified, with even the typically passive Minato ready to spring into action. His previous inaction had been dictated by the masked man's threat to Konoha during his child's birth. However, the present circumstances demanded action upon his return.

Amidst these deliberations, the light curtain underwent yet another transformation.

[Selection Completed!]

[Third Place: Road to Ninja, Fifth Hokage, Tsunade]

Upon witnessing the unexpected third-place ranking, a sense of incredulity rippled through the crowd. Hashirama and Tobirama were particularly taken aback.

"How is this possible?"

"Not even one of us is in third place?"

Amid the scepticism voiced by Hashirama and Tobirama, even Tsunade, the bespectacled woman, found herself perplexed. Her abrupt ascent to third place lay beyond anyone's predictions.

[Do you wish to display your national power?]

Upon reading the prompt on the light curtain, Tsunade glanced at the puzzled onlookers surrounding her and swiftly decided to exhibit her nation's strength. To forgo this display would likely result in insomnia for some upon returning home.

At this moment, Hashirama and Tobirama ceased their objections. Their focus was now steadfastly locked onto the light curtain before them. Eagerly, they anticipated Tsunade's actions – actions that had allowed her to outpace them.

[Following the Hokage meeting, it's clear that swift development of your world's national power is imperative!]

You've witnessed the power of the Akatsuki in the chat group, leading you to recognize the potential significance of aligning with this formidable force.

Drawing from the insights of undercover operative Uchiha Itachi and the peace-oriented philosophy embraced by Pain, you initiated a direct talk with Pain, the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

Following several discussions, the Akatsuki declared their intention to align with Konoha, resulting in a substantial enhancement of Konoha's strength.

As everyone watched the display of Tsunade's strategic prowess on the screen, the transformation of a mercenary organization into a disciplined army was met with awe. The once-owed employment fees were no longer necessary, and the Akatsuki's impressive efficiency left a lasting impression.

[With the Akatsuki's integration, Konoha officially deploys its forces to various major nations.]

Konoha's prowess received a significant boost, enabling the swift fall of the Land of Water and the Land of Wind in succession. This rapid progress ignited hope for the unification of the ninja world.

Around this juncture, the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning are allied. However, the notion of a unified ninja world was considered absurd. Upon receiving this news, you promptly declared your intent to dispatch troops to the landlocked country. Consequently, the Land of Earth succumbed, leaving only the Land of Lightning to struggle against the inevitable.

With the backing of the Akatsuki, the unstoppable force of Konoha's Shinobi Path emerged. Bolstered by elite ninjas, including Minato, among others, Konoha's assault was swifter than in other worlds. This momentum led to the conquest of three major nations, placing the unification of the ninja world tantalizingly close.

Was it not for the slight disparity in combat power between Konoha in this world and the one led by First Hokage Uchiha Madara, they might have caught up?

The assembled Hokages collectively acknowledged Tsunade's adeptness at disguising her true abilities and her knack for strategic wars. There was no doubting her goal when she sprang into action.

[Road to Ninja: Fifth Hokage Tsunade World's Display of Power]

[Overall National Strength Composite Score: 930 Points]

This rapid increase from 600 to 930 points garnered a mix of emotions and amazement. Under the scrutiny of the onlookers, Glasses Tsunade sported a somewhat sheepish smile. She subtly conveyed her apologies to the First and Second Hokage.

At this moment, Hashirama and Tobirama exhibited a carefree attitude. Hashirama jestingly remarked that since they were all part of the active chat group, it didn't matter who secured the top spot. He regarded the competition as a means to infuse fun into their lives.

Hashirama's words resonated with truth. Tsunade's accomplishment did not faze them. However, their good-humoured nature belied their underlying envy. They couldn't help but marvel at the Akatsuki's effectiveness, wishing they could have integrated this formidable organization.

Regrettably, at this juncture, the Akatsuki organization remained outside their reach. The two Hokages found themselves in a momentary state of envy. As the top three worlds were unveiled, collective attention shifted to the light curtain, anticipation high for the remaining rankings. The majority of worlds were assured of rewards, as this segment pertained to the second-tier world prize pool. Hope was harboured for improved guaranteed rewards.

[Fourth Place: First Hokage Senju Hashirama]

Having secured the guaranteed reward in the previous round, you resolved to climb to the top three spots and personally spearhead assaults on the five major villages. Your immense strength enabled the successful establishment of a factory-like country under political control. Meanwhile, Tobirama undertook the task of integrating the Land of Wind into Konoha, with a contingent of troops stationed for suppression.

Your efforts were directed towards the assault on the Land of Earth.

[Overall National Strength Composite Score: 870 Points]

Observing that he remains in fourth place, Hashirama can only reluctantly accept this reality. The standings at the forefront have shifted, and he finds himself resigned to his current position. The remaining few worlds were quickly eliminated from consideration within the chat group.

[Fifth Place: Second Hokage Senju Tobirama's World]

[Overall National Strength Composite Score: 860 Points]

[Sixth Place: Fifth Hokage Tsunade's World]

[Overall National Strength Composite Score: 850 Points]

The world power rankings of these three worlds exhibit a mere ten-point difference. Given that these three worlds each conquered a major nation, the standings have now been revealed up to the sixth position.

Surprisingly absent is Obito's world, which was originally among the frontrunners. Kakashi, representing the original Third Hokage world, gazes inquisitively at Obito.

"Obito, what's going on? Didn't you work on developing your national power?"

In response to Kakashi's inquiry, Obito adopts a serious expression and replies, "We have indeed been working on it diligently but our main efforts are focused on development."

Kakashi is about to continue questioning, but his attention shifts as the seventh world's ranking emerges on the light curtain.

It's Obito's world,

[Seventh Place: Tsukuyomi World, Sixth Hokage Obito's World]

Seeing this, Kakashi refrains from further comment. His gaze remains fixed on the light screen, tinged with curiosity about Obito's recent endeavours. Kakashi, a newcomer to this assembly, is genuinely intrigued. After all, in his world, Obito had been dead. Observing Obito as Hokage in this context is a heartening sight for Kakashi.

[Following the previous meeting, you consumed the awarded Devil Fruit, only to discover that it was the Logia Mera-Mera Fruit.]

[However, you didn't focus much on the power of the Devil Fruit; instead, you became fixated on employing the Senzu Beans.]

[Recognizing the limitations of Konoha's research team, you enticed Tsunade to return to the Konoha.]

[Several days of collaborative research refined your understanding of Senzu beans and Sharingan, ultimately equipping you to initiate your next strategy!]

At this juncture, the group is invigorated. Obito's previous charming endeavours opened up opportunities for those possessing Sharingan and Senzu Beans to explore eye transplantation. Presently, the anticipation is palpable, as everyone is eager to witness Obito's upcoming exploits.

The narrative unfolds as the scene transitions.

Familiar yet unfamiliar, the scene plays out once more. Unhesitatingly, you plug out your own eyes to execute your plans.
