All Hokage in Chat Group

Watching Obito's actions on the screen, even those who had expected it before couldn't help but frown. This applied to everyone, even newcomer like Sasuke who had just had his eye transplanted by Tsuande.

Sasuke's expressions was soon resembled those around him and the atmosphere amongst the others became somewhat subdued

Just as before, the Obito on the screen once more inserted his eye into his eye socket without uttering a single word, which caused the Sharingan to buckle down and settle into place. The transformation was such that it seemed as if these were not his own eyes.

"In pursuit of completing your plan, you willingly removed your own eyes."

"You recognized that to unite the ninja world, a formidable ally was essential. Kakashi was the prime candidate, and you sought out Tsunade to conduct the eye surgery, ensuring his body was attuned to the power of the Sharingan. With the help of Hashirama cells and Senzu beans in your hands. You were ready to help Kakashi if something went wrong during the operation.

At this moment, everyone cast peculiar glances toward Obito. Ryan, observing from the sidelines, couldn't help but harbour a quiet admiration for the depth of Obito's plan. Indeed, it was becoming increasingly evident that Kakashi held a special place in Obito's heart. The Kakashi of Sharingan who could even stall Kaguya. A good choice for second in command.

"A man willing to relinquish his own eyes for another—a rare display of true friendship or...," Ryan mused, his thoughts reflecting on the complexities of their relationship.

Amidst this scenario, two Kakashi from different worlds, found themselves trapped in a dilemma. The fitting manner in which to address Obito eluded them. There was no denying the sacrifices Obito had made—both the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and his unwavering friendship.

The contrasting paths Obitos in every world had chosen now cast an odd sense of uneasiness upon Kakashi's existence, silencing him within his contemplations. 

At this moment, Obito's world ranking materialized upon a luminescent display.

"Sixth Hokage Uchiha Obito's World Ranking: National Power Assessment Completed."

"Overall National Power Score: 777 Points."

Throughout this period, Obito had been engrossed in his research of the Sharingan and the Senzu beans. His efforts had also been dedicated to aiding Kakashi's transformation. The consequence, however, was Konoha's stagnation—its influence refrained from expanding beyond its current borders. National strength exhibited minimal growth.

Nevertheless, Obito found contentment in the fact that despite these challenges, Konoha's national strength was still evaluated at an impressive 777 points.

As the rankings unveiled, Kakashi secured the eighth position, with a national strength score of 750 points. Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, claimed the ninth spot with a score of 620 points.

Witnessing Sixth Hokage Kakashi's immediate ascension in the rankings, Ryan's eyes glinted with intrigue.

Amidst the world of Sixth Hokage Kakashi, recent events bore an eerie familiarity to Ryan. He inquired, "What's wrong with the moon in your world?"

Responding promptly to Ryan's curiosity, Kakashi recounted the recent developments, which included the persistent descent of moon debris. These events hinted at the presence of the Otsutsuki clan's involvement, a realization that resonated with Ryan's understanding of Kakashi's situation.

"The Moon Clan is located there," Ryan proposed. "Therein lies the resting place of Otsutsuki Hamura, a place where Tenseigan can potentially awaken from Byakugan. Someone is undoubtedly manipulating the legacy of their Hamura Otsutsuki."

"In the face of trouble upon your return," Ryan continued, addressing Kakashi, "don't hesitate to employ the 'help' function within the chat group."

As for Minato, who claimed the ninth position, Ryan found himself momentarily at a loss for words. Ultimately, he could only acknowledge Minato as a committed and admirable individual.

Observing the screen, Ryan's attention was captured by the scenes of Uzumaki Kushina, Minato's wife, being transported into the door fruit space. It was followed closely by Minato prepared to confront the masked man. However, their adversary chose to retreat, and it was clear that the masked man had yet to locate the Nine-Tails, preventing any large-scale damage.

Recognizing that being trapped in this location by Minato would likely make leaving quite challenging, especially considering the circumstances.

The conclusion of the Nine-Tails Rebellion crisis yielded relatively favourable results. Only the original Third Hokage world and the original 5.5th Hokage world remained standing.

Observing the newly-installed Hokage, Kakashi, and Sasuke, who now represented these two worlds, speculation filled the air. Curiosity abounded, as everyone pondered who would emerge triumphant as the ultimate survivor among these two contenders.

Sasuke and Kakashi shared a knowing glance, their eyes meeting in mutual understanding.

As a newly empowered Uchiha, having recently acquired the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Sasuke naturally held a firm belief that he would not fall behind. On the other hand, Kakashi harboured a degree of uncertainty.

He had expended considerable effort in restoring Konoha's combat prowess, concurrently deploying the Konoha forces to launch an assault on the Sound village. Despite the Sound being a comparatively smaller country, this strategic move marked a significant advancement for Konoha's overall national might.

Just as the collective gaze remained fixed upon the screen, anticipation reaching its peak, the final rankings for the last two contestants were unveiled.

"Tenth Place: Uchiha Sasuke, Hokage of the original 5.5th Hokage world," the display announced.

"Final National Strength Evaluation: 600 Points."

"Eleventh Place: Kakashi, former Third Hokage World," the subsequent ranking read.

"Final National Strength Evaluation: 550 Points."

"Hahahaha! As expected!" A boisterous laugh escaped Sasuke's lips upon glimpsing his ranking. Confidence radiated from him.

Meanwhile, Kakashi bore a disappointed expression, earning a consolatory pat on the shoulder from Minato, who sat beside him.

Obito, unable to contain his approval, commended Kakashi, "Not bad at all, Kakashi, to have progressed from 300 points to 550 points!"

Ryan, observing the unfolding spectacle, began to unravel the underlying scoring criteria utilized by the chat group.

Worlds with formidable Hokage figures, such as Kakashi and Sasuke, who had recently joined their respective worlds typically garnered scores exceeding 550 points. Exceptions, like Sasuke's world, currently marked by his defection exhibited a notable decrease in rating. In the case of Kakashi's world the score had impressively surged to 750 points.

Consequently, the world of Seventh Hokage Naruto was estimated to command a score of around 1000 points in the future.

As Ryan surveyed the current national power evaluation, which now stood at 1456 points for the realm under consideration, a sense of relief washed over him.

With the final two worlds determined, the selection process concluded officially. The eleven chosen worlds were now arranged in a cohesive lineup.

The imminent reward distribution session prompted heightened anticipation among the assembled group. A palpable tension filled the air as all eyes remained fixed on the illuminated curtain, awaiting the impending allocation of rewards.

"Second-level prize pool!" the robotic voice exclaimed, triggering a ripple of eager discussions.

"What kind of rewards can we expect from this tier?" Tobirama speculated.

"We shall see when Ryan get's the rewards!" someone chimed in with enthusiasm.

"It's bound to be something worthwhile!" the hopeful Glasses Tsunade continued.

Amidst the lively discourse, subtle changes began to manifest upon the glowing screen, heralding the forthcoming distribution of rewards.

[Reward distribution concluded!]

[First Place: Fourth Hokage Ryan World]

[ Selection's national strength score for first place: 1456 points, meeting the criteria for advancing to the second-level world.]

[Rewards will be drawn from the secondary world.]

[Choose three out of five optional rewards:]

[Reward 1: Zanpakuto(Random)]

[Reward 2: Kido Encyclopedia]

[Reward 3: The World (time manipulation ability)]

[Reward 4: Vector Manipulation]

[Reward 5: Ultra Divine Water (Unlock your potential and rapidly enhance your strength)]

A sharp intake of breath resounded as the rewards for the secondary world were unveiled.

"What does the time ability entail?"

"And there's the Perfect Super God Water – it can provide a direct power boost!"

Surveying the array of rewards, the crowd erupted in a chorus of astonishment. Even Ryan himself was taken aback by the diversity and potential of the five offerings.

Zanpakuto hailing from the Shinigami world, was intrigued but also posed uncertainty due to the randomness of its abilities. A chance encounter with a mighty Zanpakuto like Ryujin Jakka would be a cause for celebration. However, the prospects of receiving a weak one.

The Kido's Encyclopedia boasted versatiles abilities that appealed to many. This choice not only held practical value but also demonstrated a flair for grandeur, as exemplified by Aizen's masterful utilization of its powers.

The third option held the allure of Jojo's renowned 'The World' Stand. The unique application of time manipulation within the JOJO universe might have contributed to its classification as a second-tier world. The World's power is its ability to stop time allowing only the user, DIO, and anyone with the same power to act within the duration of stopped time.

Among the remaining choices one beckoned with the potential of 'Vector Manupilation,' while the other offered the early-stage Super God Water from the Dragon Ball universe.

Contemplating these enticing possibilities, Ryan's mind raced over time and he found himself longing for all five abilities. However, the time had come to make a selection.

Just as Ryan was poised to announce his decision, an unexpected alteration materialized upon the screen.

"Hmm?"

At this moment, a collective pause swept through the assembly for such occurrences were nil before this. Under the rapt attention of those present, a new line of text emerged bringing a new notification.

"The top three rankers may opt to forfeit the initially presented rewards."

"Subsequent draws will be made from the existing prize pool: the more rewards one gives up the higher the likelihood of acquiring stronger abilities."

"Should you forgo three or more options the opportunity arises to transcend the current tier and access rewards of a higher level."

The crowd exchanged glances, stunned by this unanticipated turn of events. The potential for getting higher rewards stirred excitement, yet a sense of weighty decision-making permeated the air.
