Chapter 5: Entering the Ninja World

The air shimmered with an otherworldly energy as the summoning light dimmed, revealing Lelouch vi Britannia and C.C. standing before Yuta. The unfamiliar yet determined figures stood out against the dreary backdrop of Amegakure, the Hidden Rain Village.

"Welcome to Amegakure," Yuta began, his voice steady. "I am Yuta Kurogane. You must be Lelouch vi Britannia and C.C."

Lelouch inclined his head slightly, his sharp eyes taking in every detail of their surroundings. "Yes, that's correct," he replied with a hint of curiosity. C.C. merely gave a slight wave, her expression serene yet watchful.

Yuta continued, "I need to explain the situation we're in. This world operates under different rules from what you're used to, but I think you'll understand once I explain."

Lelouch's gaze sharpened. "Different rules? Go on."

Yuta took a deep breath. "I have knowledge of a certain timeline of this world. Think of it as knowing the future based on past events and patterns," he explained, observing their reactions. "Given that you come from a technologically advanced world, I assume you understand the concept of timelines."

Lelouch nodded, intrigued. "We do. Continue."

"This world is currently in the midst of the Second Ninja War. We are in Amegakure, led by Hanzo the Salamander, one of the strongest ninjas alive. Despite being a small village, Amegakure stands tall under Hanzo's leadership, fighting on three fronts against larger, more powerful ninja villages," Yuta explained.

"Interesting," Lelouch murmured, his mind clearly working through the implications.

Yuta pressed on, "There are three orphans in Amegakure who will soon form a peace organization that will become one of the strongest in the world. Their names are Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko. They will meet Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin, who will teach them about peace and ideals."

"And what becomes of this organization?" Lelouch asked, leaning forward slightly.

"Tragically, Yahiko will die, and Nagato will take over, possessing the Uzumaki bloodline and the Rinnegan, a powerful doujutsu once wielded by Uchiha Madara. This organization, known as Akatsuki, will become infamous," Yuta explained.

Lelouch's eyes narrowed. "A powerful group led by a child with dreams of peace? It sounds familiar."

Yuta nodded, his eyes meeting Lelouch's. "Yes, it does. It reminds me of the rise of 'Zero'. You stood behind a rebel organization that started with the goal of rebelling against a small district, but it grew into a force fighting to save the world."

Lelouch's expression was inscrutable, but Yuta could see the gears turning in his mind. "Go on," Lelouch urged.

"This organization, Akatsuki, eventually becomes one of the most feared groups in this world, but it falls without intelligent support. If you could guide Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko, like you did with your Black Knights, you could create a successful Akatsuki that truly brings peace," Yuta proposed.

Lelouch's eyes gleamed with interest, a small smile playing on his lips. "An intriguing proposition. If what you say is true, then this world is ripe for strategic influence. And the cycle of hatred you mentioned—this 'Chain of Hatred'—it's a problem that plagues both our worlds."

C.C. interjected, her voice soft but clear. "So, Yuta, you want Lelouch to guide this organization to success?"

Yuta nodded. "Yes. With your intellect, Lelouch, and the power we can potentially gain through the Summoning System, we can reshape this world. I believe it's the best course of action."

Lelouch seemed to ponder this for a moment, then spoke. "I will need more details about the timeline and the key figures. But your plan holds promise. If we can steer this Akatsuki correctly, we can achieve significant influence."

Yuta felt a surge of relief and excitement. "I will tell you everything I know," he promised. "Starting from Amegakure, Hanzo, and the current state of the Second Ninja War."

As Yuta began to explain the intricacies of the timeline, he made sure to highlight the major forces and their leaders. "The major ninja villages in this world are Konohagakure, Sunagakure, Kirigakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure. Each village is led by a Kage, the strongest and most respected ninja in the village. Konohagakure is led by the Hokage, Sunagakure by the Kazekage, Kirigakure by the Mizukage, Kumogakure by the Raikage, and Iwagakure by the Tsuchikage."

Lelouch listened intently, absorbing the information. "And the current Kage of these villages?"

"Currently, Konohagakure is led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage. Sunagakure's Kazekage is Reto, Kumogakure's Raikage is A, Kirigakure's Mizukage is Byakuren, and Iwagakure's Tsuchikage is Ishikawa," Yuta detailed, referring to the image for the accurate names and positions.

Yuta paused, then added, "There are also other significant figures. Uchiha Madara, for instance, is secretly alive at this time. He has a plan to use a young Uchiha named Obito, who will be trained and manipulated into activating his Mangekyou Sharingan. Madara will eventually choose to die, passing on his will to Obito."

Lelouch's eyes flashed with understanding. "So, this world is filled with power struggles and hidden agendas. We will need to navigate carefully."

Yuta nodded. "Exactly. There are many intricacies and key events that shape the future. If you have any questions or need more information, just ask. I'll tell you everything I know."

Lelouch gave a slow nod, his mind already forming strategies. "Very well. Let's begin with a detailed analysis of the current power structures and key figures. We need to understand our potential allies and enemies before making any moves."

Yuta felt a sense of confidence. With Lelouch's guidance, they would navigate the complexities of the Ninja World and create a future where peace and power could coexist. The path ahead was fraught with challenges, but together, they would forge a new destiny for this world.
