Hi!
Indeed there must be at least several people that were destined to make themselves giants in the course of history or who could be nudged into notoriety but whose paths simply did not pique the God Hand's recruiting interest for whatever reason. They chose and manipulated into place exactly whom they intended to. What's the point in being an evil mastermind at the center of an infinite web of manipulation if you don't make the effort to bring it off with maximum panache?
But I'm not sure what your question is exactly now. If they are on a schedule of one every 216 years then it takes a thousand-ish years to get five.
You seem to be asking, if the evil forces in the world are so powerful and can manipulate the world so, why have they not already won waaaaayyy back when? I don't know but my guess would be that a) the slow suffering of the world is cool with it/them, and watching everything play out is satisfying in itself and/or b) the world wants a reason for its suffering, but it wants the reason to be cool and epic.
