Ryun found this somewhat confusing. Who was his simulation self putting on this act for?
Then he understood... Ah, Karin has the Sage Art of Mind's Eye, after all!
Once she uses this ability, she can perceive all chakra within a radius of several dozen kilometers. If she has already memorized the other person's chakra signature, she can even perceive their specific destination clearly.
This sensory ability is vastly stronger than Ryun's own advanced sensory perception, which can only reach two kilometers.
Although Karin is still young now and her sensory ability might be relatively weak, Ryun is currently just standing outside their residence. If Karin puts her mind to it, she can definitely detect Ryun's presence.
Sure enough, that's exactly how it developed in the simulation.
[After Karin returned to her residence, she couldn't wait to use her sensory ability to check your movements. Then she discovered that you were reluctant to leave and had even bought flowers for her. It's just a pity she couldn't come into contact with you.]
[Karin silently perceived you until you left her sensing range. Before she knew it, she had shed tears for you. From then on, her eyes were filled only with your shadow. If she were free at this moment, she would definitely have agreed to your confession.]
Seeing this, Ryun felt a sense of guilt, like he was deceiving a child.
Of course, Karin's experiences meant she wasn't a child raised in a greenhouse; she was merely extremely starved for love. Ryun's current performance happened to fill the void of love missing in her heart.
As for the result, naturally, Karin would fall hopelessly in love with Ryun. Later on, when Ryun saves her life, Karin's love for Ryun would then start at at least thirteen points out of ten.
[In the following days, you appeared there from time to time. It wasn't until the day the Chunin Exams began that you stopped coming out to join the excitement. The Chunin Exams proceeded normally, and the results of the first exam weren't much different from what you had predicted.]
[Soon, the second exam, the Forest of Death, was about to begin. You found Anko and told her to call for you if she encountered danger. Anko pretended to be calm and acted as if nothing was wrong, but she had already sensed Orochimaru's presence.]
[The Forest of Death exam began. You used the Flying Thunder God Technique to silently infiltrate and start your hunt. Anko targeted Orochimaru, intending to die together with him, but your appearance interrupted that.]
[Anko thanked you for appearing and decided to keep this matter a secret, while also covering for your actions. Taking advantage of Anko's cover, you successfully rescued Karin and brought her to the Land of Waves.]
[Naturally, Karin's disappearance would cause dissatisfaction in Kusagakure, but they were about to be caught up in the Konoha Crush Plan, so they naturally wouldn't act rashly over Karin at this time. Karin, on the other hand, was very grateful to you for saving her and confessed her feelings to you on the spot.]
[You accepted her confession, but you told her you had many girlfriends. After being surprised, Karin quickly accepted all of this, and felt that it was only right for someone as excellent as you to have so many girlfriends.]
Ryun blinked, sighed softly, truly a naive child.
However, Karin was too excellent; Ryun had no choice but to deceive her.
Better for such a naive child to be stabbed by Ryun's big knife than to be stabbed by Sasuke's sword in the future.
[After settling Karin and leaving her a Flying Thunder God seal talisman, you returned to Konoha to participate in the Chunin Exams. The second-round one-on-one matches were very different from what you remembered. Apart from Lee still losing to Gaara, your girlfriends, Gaara, Neji, Sasuke, and Naruto all advanced.]
Seeing this, Ryun's heart tightened. Was what he was worried about going to happen?
Gaara being injured by Sasuke and going on a rampage was actually a low-probability event.
If this didn't happen, then Gaara would rampage right in the center of the Chunin Exam venue.
That scene... would be simply too tragic.
However, the subsequent development was somewhat unexpected yet reasonable.
[Sasuke versus Gaara; Gaara was injured. Enraged, Gaara tried to release Shukaku's power, and the Konoha Crush Plan erupted. Both sides engaged in offensive and defensive battles around Gaara. Rasa was overwhelmed by the combined attack of Konoha's jōnin.]
[Temari and Kankuro couldn't withstand the siege by Konoha's genin either and could only protect Gaara as they retreated, preparing to rendezvous with Baki to create an opportunity for Gaara to release Shukaku. Konoha's genin began their pursuit of Gaara, and the story returned to its normal track.]
[You still saw Kimimaro off, guiding the direction of the war from the shadows. The war eventually ended with Rasa being captured. All the Kusagakure ninja were killed in action, and Karin was also listed among the fallen.]
Seeing this, Ryun's lips curled upwards. This meant Karin had completely become his person.
It could only be said that finding Karin was like finding an immense treasure. Years later, Ryun wondered if he could procreate a new Red-Haired Clan with Karin. It's just a pity that by then, this clan could only bear the surname Nojuro.
[You are already very familiar with the story that unfolded next: retrieving Tsunade, forming a marital alliance with Sunagakure, assisting Gaara in defeating Rasa, and finally returning to the Land of Waves to help Zabuza and Haku return to Kirigakure, establishing good relations with Kirigakure, and starting your own enterprise in the Land of Waves.]
[While doing all this, you didn't forget to train with Hinata whenever she had time. Under your continuous supply of Yang Release chakra, Hinata's development rate was more than double that of the original story, and her speed in learning ninjutsu also greatly accelerated.]
[Just as you were preparing to find an opportunity to contact Orochimaru, you were suddenly attacked by some puppets. These puppets were not only fast and strong, but could also fire chakra cannonballs with considerable power.]
[You immediately realized these puppets were from the Moon. Obviously, Toneri Otsutsuki had decided to make a move against you. Alarm bells rang in your heart.]
Wait, what the hell?
Ryun immediately chose to guide.
Was this for real?
Ryun had been wondering whether Toneri Otsutsuki actually existed, and now he was coming out to show off.
What did he want? To attack the Earth right now?
Calmly thinking for a few seconds, Ryun realized this matter might not be that serious.
Toneri Otsutsuki had indeed made a move against him, but that didn't mean he was going to crash the Moon into the Earth now.
The reason was simple: Kaguya Otsutsuki was still sealed on the Moon at this point.
If Toneri crashed the Moon into the Earth and let Kaguya escape, what would he do then?
Only after the Fourth Great Ninja War ended, when Kaguya was summoned out from the Moon and then sealed in the Core Prison, would Toneri have the courage to manipulate the Moon into crashing into the Earth.
That is to say, Toneri's attack on Ryun at this time was purely out of personal grudge. Could it be because he felt Ryun was going to take away Hinata, whom he was preparing for to restart the world in the future?
Don't wonder how Toneri could know what was happening on Earth.
There was a giant golden Tenseigan on the Moon, equivalent to a Six Paths-level Byakugan, an enhanced version. It wasn't strange that he could see things on Earth from the Moon.
Moreover, Toneri could use this Tenseigan to set up a transmission passage between the Moon and Earth, dispatch puppets to Earth to confirm information, and even project himself directly onto Earth. It was no wonder he could know the specific details of what happened on Earth.
However, this kind of thing couldn't be done often, as it consumed enormous chakra. And now, with Toneri being the only living person on the Moon, this chakra, once used, was gone forever.
So, was it because in this simulation, Ryun accompanied Hinata almost every day, finally causing Toneri, who came to Earth to peep at Hinata, to lose his composure, leading him to couldn't help but make a move against Ryun?
Ryun felt he had discovered the truth. Understanding this truth, Ryun wasn't so angry anymore.
He even felt this was an interesting opportunity.
He quickly completed the guidance and waited for the simulation to continue.
[You destroyed several puppets, then took them to Hiashi Hyūga and asked if he knew the secrets of these things. Hiashi's expression changed drastically upon seeing them; clearly, he had some understanding of these things in his heart.]
[Then he told you that when Hinata was little, he had sensed the existence of these things, but couldn't keep up with their speed. He only felt they seemed to be targeting Hinata. But so many years had passed, and he thought the matter was over, because he had killed the Kumogakure ninja leader.]
Seeing this, Ryun was suddenly stunned. So that's how it was?
No wonder Hiashi Hyūga had directly killed the Kumogakure ninja leader. He mistook that guy for a pervert targeting his daughter Hinata!
If Ryun were a father in the future and someone targeted his daughter, he would definitely kill them too.
Since Hiashi knew about all this, it would be easy. Next, you planned to take Hinata and Hanabi away directly.
[You told Hiashi your plan and recounted the story of the Moon. Hiashi didn't believe it at first, but you used the Flying Thunder God Technique to take him directly inside the Moon. It turned out you had already left a Flying Thunder God mark on one of the puppets.]
