Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

"Don't come over here! Big brother!"

However, Uchiha Itachi had not heard Sasuke's thoughts and still walked over to Sasuke's side, raising his hand to touch his head, saying, "Sasuke, don't worry, I won't interfere with your first mission as a big brother."

"That's good," Sasuke nodded, then suddenly realized, shook his head, and dodged away from Itachi's hand, "Hmph! It would have been even better if you hadn't come!"

"Sasuke, when you say that, as your big brother, I feel hurt," Itachi said with a helpless look.

"Sorry, big brother," Sasuke immediately dropped his haughty attitude and asked Itachi, "Big brother, you're not angry, are you?"

"Of course, I'm not mad at you, Sasuke," Uchiha Itachi gave Sasuke a gentle smile, "I'll just watch from the side and not interfere."

"Is that Uchiha Itachi?"

"A genius boy!"

"And incredibly handsome too!"

"Sasuke actually has such a handsome and suave big brother!"

"I wish I had one too!"

"..."

The classmates muttered and began to envy Sasuke and Itachi's sibling bond.

Sasuke gleefully thought—Hmph! Go ahead and be envious! My brother is mine alone!

Naruto pouted, "What's there to be so proud of, it's just having a big brother."

Though he said this, he couldn't help but feel envious.

If only he too had a big brother...

Upon arriving at the location for picking up missions, Naruto surveyed the E-rank and F-rank missions: "Help Mushroom Grandpa Deliver Mushrooms," "Deliver Milk to the Orphanage," "Deliver Clothes to the Lonely Elder at Tea Street 36" ...

"Why are they all tasks like this?" Naruto was a bit overwhelmed, as such tasks could not showcase the great Naruto's strength at all.

"Hey, hey, hey, I told you already, these kinds of tasks are just village couriers." Shikamaru spoke again, but nobody paid attention, "Okay, just deliberately ignored, huh?"

"It's actually not so bad," Sakura Haruno consoled, "Being able to interact more with the villagers could also foster more communication opportunities."

Moreover, the locations where the students were to deliver supplies were mostly lonely elders or war orphans. My V*i#r+tual Li-br#a%r^y% E$m^pi$re* (M|V^|^L!0$EM+P!Y#R) hos$t#s& the or!i-g$in$al*.$

But the amount...

It was probably over a thousand.

Does Konoha Village really have that many orphans and solitary elders?

This was the first time Sakura had learned this fact.

"In the past, the village had wars with other ninja villages..." Iruka started to say but suddenly felt the topic was a bit heavy, so he laughed and said, "Well, you'll all know about this later, let's start picking your missions now. Deliver the designated ingredients, cotton clothes, milk, etc., to the respective places, then come back here to get your rewards, understood?"

"Understood!" XN

The students shouted as they picked their respective tasks from the wall and selected the corresponding supplies from the nearby warehouse.

Naruto saw a task on the mission wall to deliver supplies to his own home and said, "Didn't expect there to be a task to deliver ingredients to my house..."

Just as he was about to take it down, Sakura stopped him, saying, "Naruto, delivering stuff to your own house isn't really proper."

"Eh, why?" Naruto was puzzled.

"These tasks are meant to encourage the ninja school students to care for the village's lonely elders and orphans," Shikamaru stepped up to explain, "If you pick a task to deliver to your own home, no one else will go to your house."

"I see," Naruto realized, spotting a task paper labeled "Deliver Vegetables to the Hyuga Branch Family Orphans," "Hyuga? Isn't Hinata also from the Hyuga clan?"

Hearing Naruto call her name and noticing Naruto's gaze towards her, Hyuga Hinata instantly turned red and turned away.

"..."

Could this girl dislike him?

Naruto had no intention of imposing himself on her, but taking advantage of this opportunity to visit Hinata's home didn't seem too bad.

"Hyuga Branch Family?" Ino said puzzledly, "Konoha has two major families, one is the Uchiha, and the other is the Hyuga, a clan comparable to the Uchiha clan."

"But why would the Hyuga clan also need someone to run errands?"

"Logically, with a major clan like Hyuga, shouldn't they provide their own support?"

Choji shook his head: "Don't look at me, I have no idea."

Shikamaru said, "The Hyuga have a main family and a branch family; the branch family is supposed to protect the main family. Although the branch family does indeed take care of the clan's orphans, if an orphan from the branch family grows up, they have to fend for themselves, and the village provides some support accordingly, and if the parents of the branch family orphans have made contributions to the village, the village will provide even more support."

"For such orphans, perhaps the only shortfall is loneliness."

Naruto was silent for a while.

His situation was almost similar.

Only, his was even worse—treated by the villagers as a demon fox and subjected to their cold violence, not speaking to him, and even avoiding him from afar.

But now things were a bit better.

Haruno Sakura noticed Naruto was a bit silent and said with a smile, "Naruto, let's compete to see who can complete more tasks first."

"No problem." Naruto became immediately excited, "I definitely won't lose!"

"That's the spirit! No matter what the task, you need enthusiasm," Iruka encouraged.

"Sakura, you seem to care a lot about Naruto," Sun Wukong's voice echoed in Sakura's heart, his tone slightly teasing.

"What? Not at all, I just treat him like a younger brother to look after," Sakura immediately denied in her heart. Besides, she was only seven years old!

"The glow of motherhood?"

"Exactly, that's it."

Sakura nodded and focused on the E-rank task, clapping her hands together to divide into hundreds of clones, grabbing hundreds of task sheets, "Naruto, I'm heading out first!"

Instantly, hundreds of Sakuras set out, creating a rather spectacular scene.

Iruka exclaimed, "Physical Shadow Clones! This chakra level..."

"I can do it too!"

Naruto brought his fingers together, crossing them into a cross.

Bang!

Suddenly, a large amount of smoke emerged again, and hundreds of Narutos appeared, also picking up sheets of task papers and heading to the nearby warehouse to gather supplies.

"Naruto's chakra!" Iruka had seen Naruto use Shadow Clones before, but seeing it again still shocked him.

It's very rare for someone his age to have so much chakra!

Uchiha Sasuke tugged at the somewhat distracted Uchiha Itachi and asked, "Brother, can you teach me the Shadow Clone Skill too?"

"Of course, but at your age, I'm afraid you can't perform the Shadow Clone Skill. Your body is still small; you don't have enough chakra," Itachi said, though his thoughts were turned toward the issues concerning Sakura and Naruto.

These two, they both have enormous chakra, even denser than his.

No wonder Kakashi, that member of the Red Organization, would lure them to form the Red Team... he's seen the talents of these two, especially Sakura who seemed to learn and even improve upon the Rasengan demonstrated by Kakashi with just a glance.

And along with the new generation of "Pig, Deer, Butterfly"...

Could Kakashi be a member of the Red Organization recruiting new members?

No!

Not necessarily!

If members of the Red Organization don't know each other's identities, then Kakashi is just training his own team for better performance on future missions of the organization.

Kakashi!

That man, he's truly terrifying!

At that moment, countless clones of Sakura and Naruto appeared all over Konoha, delivering items to various lonely elders and orphans, creating a striking scene of red cherry and orange hues.

The Anbu monitoring Naruto were also unable to discern which one was the real Naruto.

"What should we do now?"

"We should report to Lord Hokage that Naruto has mastered the Shadow Clone Skill and is no longer under our watch."

With hundreds of Narutos running around the streets, which one were they to follow?

Every Naruto had the same chakra presence, making it difficult to keep track of them.

Kakashi, walking on the street, also noticed countless Sakuras and Narutos delivering parcels, his only visible right eye filled with exhaustion: "Lord Hokage, you really trust me. If this keeps up, these two will surpass me in strength even before they graduate from the Ninja Academy."

By that time, he guessed, all he could teach them would be some Ninjutsu and help them gain more experience in various missions.

"I really want to refuse it!" Kakashi exclaimed, though considering Naruto was his teacher's child, he was just venting verbally while his eye revealed a touch of relief, "Well, if such excellent students could become my disciples, leading them would surely be very relieving."

Latter, among the figures leaping across rooftops, Kakashi saw Itachi leading Sasuke.

However, his gaze was on Sasuke.

"Is that Sasuke?" Kakashi scratched his head, somewhat troubled, "He's a child that needs his brother's guidance. Although Sakura and Naruto are also children, the gap is just too big. If he were to join my team in the future, he might end up as the weakest link."

"An Uchiha being the weakest link..."

"It's not an unprecedented situation."

Kakashi also recalled Obito, and his tolerance for Sasuke's performance increased somewhat.

Just as Kakashi noticed Itachi, Itachi also noticed Kakashi, and sharply sensed that the latter's gaze was not on him but was instead fixed on Sasuke.

"Kakashi, that guy, is he observing Naruto and Sakura's behaviors?" Itachi felt a sink in his heart, even a hint of a murderous intent arose, "And he's also targeting Sasuke?"

"Sasuke, you walk the rest of the way yourself, brother has some things to deal with," With his fingers together, Itachi tapped Sasuke's forehead, then vanished with the Body Flicker Skill.

Sasuke pouted, "..." He had just accepted his brother's help, and now his brother had suddenly run off...

Hmph! Such an irresponsible brother!
