Naruto: Starting with the Celebrity of Japan

Ran Shu stared at Uchiha Madara in his complete form, his eyes narrowing into slits:

"How is this possible?"

He knew that Madara Uchiha was now probably old and frail, looking like he could die at any moment.

"It's not impossible."

Madara Uchiha continued, picking up where Ran Shu left off.

He naturally assumed that Ranshu was wondering why he was still alive.

"All the rumors tell you that I'm dead, don't they? But unfortunately, that's not the truth."

Madara Uchiha said to Ran Shu in a pretentious manner.

But in reality, Ban was also panicking.

No matter what, he cannot change the fact that he is nearing the end of his life.

When he met Obito, he presented his most authentic self.

Obito wasn't very bright; he only needed a few words to convince Obito to work for him.

But Ran Shu is different. Madara had to be wary of Ran Shu's unpredictable actions, so he used the power of the Gedo Mazo to create this powerful version of himself using his eye technique.

"Kumamoto Ranshu... You should feel honored to have been chosen by me, boy with the three-tomoe Sharingan."

Ban said to Luanxiu, trying to fool him.

Upon hearing this, Luanxiu feigned a serious expression and said warily:

"How did you know I have the Sharingan?!"

"I know everything."

Madara displayed an arrogant demeanor, as if he had truly bestowed upon Ranshu some great favor.

Luanxiu wanted to laugh to himself. Look at him, he's getting out of breath just because you called him fat...

Of course, Ranxiu knew that she still had to keep up the act with Ban.

In the following period, Madara Uchiha began to incite Ran Shu, revealing everything about the Eye of the Moon Plan and some truths about the origin of the world.

In Madara's plan, the best course of action was to persuade Ran Shu to work for him, so Madara held nothing back to a certain extent.

"Become my subordinate! I will give you unimaginable glory!"

Madara reached out his hand to Ranshu.

Within the illusion created by this eye technique, Madara even added a touch of divine radiance to his current appearance...

The overall visual effect looks just like the image of God Lü Meng in a certain game that received extremely negative reviews...

But Luanxiu wasn't tempted.

In the previous three simulations, Ranshu did not gain any advantage over Ban, so Ranshu did not have much hope.

"Oh, for example?"

Ranshu simply replied, wanting to see what kind of conditions Ban would propose.

Madara glanced at Ranshu, then spoke seductively in a proud tone:

"I bestow upon you a great surname; you may roam the world under the name Uchiha Ranshu."

Unexpectedly, Ranshu turned around and was about to leave immediately after hearing what Madara said.

Damn it, what did I expect?! No sincerity whatsoever!

After speaking, Madara seemed to realize that the surname Uchiha wasn't a particularly good reward for ordinary people...

What respectable person would have the surname Uchiha?

Seeing that Ranshu was about to leave, Ban was getting impatient.

"Hey, hey, don't go yet... Um... cough cough! I'll grant you the power of a tailed beast!"

Madara Uchiha was initially anxious to stop the reckless display, but then seemed to remember that he had to maintain a dignified image, so he quickly switched back to his mature and composed voice.

"The Three-Tails of Kirigakure is now under my control. Do you want the power of a Tailed Beast?"

Seeing that Ranshu was finally not in a hurry to leave, Madara continued:

"Become my subordinate, and in the future... all my power will be yours!"

Ranshu stopped in his tracks and faced Ban again, pretending to be deep in thought.

Of course, he wasn't seriously considering Madara's conditions; rather, he was thinking that at least Madara had at least offered something substantial this time...

"Three-tailed? Let me see."

After a moment of silence, Ranshu spoke to Madara.

Seeing that his plan to persuade Ran Shu seemed to be working, Ban immediately glared at an empty space next to him.

Immediately, a miniature holographic projection-like 3D model appeared before my eyes.

It had three tails...

turtle……

It is covered in armor and its entire body is covered with countless sharp spikes.

It was the tailed beast that Hashirama had given to the Land of Water—the Three-Tailed Isobu!

"..."

Ranxiu looked at the three-tailed projection on the ground and suddenly didn't want it anymore...

Wow, he's completely forgotten that the Three-Tailed Fox is a turtle!

—Ranxiu was willing to take huge risks and work for Uchiha Madara just for a turtle?

What does it mean?

If this gets out, it won't sound good...

Moreover, in a practical sense, the essence of a tailed beast is to provide its host with a large amount of chakra.

However, the "Luanxiu Dianwu Celebrity System" guarantees a reward that increases chakra levels.

Another downside is that the Jinchūriki of the Tailed Beasts can be found in any village in any country...

Those were people who had endured cold stares and lived in humiliation.

Think of Gaara, think of Killer Bee, and then think of Naruto.

Naruto endured such a miserable childhood but didn't turn to the dark side; he's incredibly lucky to have survived in Konoha...

"I... refuse."

Ranshu immediately rejected Ban's suggestion.

His purpose in coming here was to find out where Ban was hiding so that he could come and have a meal after Ban's death.

Now that his goal had been achieved, and since Madara couldn't offer any more enticing suggestions, Ranshu planned to make a runaway, just like in the second simulation scenario.

Ban's eyes immediately went from burning to dim.

Finally, his gaze revealed his displeasure.

Who is he that some brat would dare to act against his will?

"Hmph, you evil non-Uchiha brat!"

Madara is now even more convinced that anyone who isn't from the Uchiha clan is a bad person!

"Since that's the case, I'll teach you a lesson!"

As he spoke, Madara suddenly attacked Ranshu!

He planned to teach this brat a lesson, even if he didn't kill him, he would at least put a talisman on him so that he wouldn't tell anyone that he had come into contact with him.

Ban moved with ghostly speed, reaching out a hand towards Ranshu's back!

but……

I've already seen the chaotic performance in the simulated scenario...

We were prepared!

He didn't turn around, but quickly extended a kunai with red flames behind his back to block.

He estimated that Madara's current strength was insufficient to launch many substantial attacks.

Unless Ban has a death wish and forcibly overdraws his lifespan to fight Ranshu to the death!

As expected, Madara had no choice but to stop his attack after seeing the flames of Ranshu Kunai.

He asked in surprise:

"Amaterasu?"

Although the flames on Ranshu Kunai were not black, Madara felt a powerful threat from them.

Long ago, Madara had discussed the application of this kind of flame with his younger brother, Uchiha Izuna, who was proficient in fire release techniques.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Ban saw the objects and thought of his younger brother, and could no longer bring himself to harm Ranshu.

Ran Shu turned around defensively, but Ban did not launch another attack.

After thinking for a moment, Ranshu coldly assured Ban:

"I won't tell anyone about what happened here. I'll just pretend I was never here."

He didn't know if Madara would attack him again, but it would be best to make a statement to Madara.

Just in case Ban gets desperate and starts giving himself a "Brother-Thinking Fist, Thoughts Like a Spring" or something...

After saying that, Ranshu walked out of the stone gate and quickly left Ban's hiding place.

……

After leaving Ban's lair, Ranxiu ran quite a distance further away.

Because if he were still too close to Madara, the other party probably wouldn't agree.

Having entered an unfamiliar forest, Luan Xiucai stopped in his tracks.

"Hmm... thankfully, nothing like being possessed by Madara happened."

Luanxiu reflected on what had just happened and felt that the interaction had gone relatively smoothly...

In particular, besides learning Ban's location, this contact also revealed a rather important clue!

That is, in the cave where Ban was, he smelled a very familiar scent!

That person's...smell!

Just as Luanxiu was preparing to plan his next move based on the clues he had discovered, he suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from not far away.

"Who?"

Ranshu was alert; he thought it was Uchiha Madara chasing after them.

But when Luanxiu looked in the direction of the sound, she saw a girl in blue standing up from the bushes.

She appeared to have just finished doing something, and was adjusting her skirt and leggings with her hands...

Seemingly sensing Luanxiu's gaze, the girl also looked in Luanxiu's direction.

Mei Terumi was taken aback to find a boy standing just over ten meters away from her, and she stopped what she was doing!

"Huh?"

For a moment, the two stared at each other, stunned.
