Naruto's Review : First Viewer is Senju Tobirama?

Chapter 8: Chapter 8 : Another World??



On the light screen, Hayashi Sora happily stepped out to collect the package delivery.

In the Hokage's office, Danzo Shimura widened his eyes, completely unable to believe what he was seeing.

"Hiruzen, what is this?"

"This is the magical light screen that Tobirama Sensei and I have been waiting for for half a month."

"Can you explain more?"

"It's hard to explain right now, just watch it first, and we can discuss it later."

After receiving Sarutobi Hiruzen's answer, Shimura Danzo fell silent.

But his mind was racing, pondering what was unfolding before him.

Senju Tobirama ignored the students' actions. At this moment, he was captivated by what was displayed on the light screen.

The neighborhood where Hayashi Sora resides is a modest community.

It's not large, but it boasts several high-rise buildings, each over thirty stories tall, which greatly surprised the three people.

Konoha, the most prosperous village in the ninja world, might not rival the capital where the Land of Fire's Daimyo resides, but it certainly shouldn't be far behind.

Yet in the entire ninja world, buildings taller than five stories are exceedingly rare, let alone those surpassing thirty stories.

As they left the community, they were equally astounded by the iron beasts running along the streets.

Observing people exiting these iron beasts, the three of them, discerning individuals, realized these were the mode of transport in this world.

"Truly astonishing."

To be frank, I'm not entirely surprised.

As early as half a month ago, after their initial viewing, Senju Tobirama had suspicions about the origins of Hayashi Sora, the video host.

Today's video simply confirmed his suspicions and speculations as facts.

"That world should be very peaceful, right?"

Behind him, Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured softly.

"Perhaps,"

Senju Tobirama replied quietly, then added, "If there were no peace, their side wouldn't have progressed so well."

A panoramic view unfolded before them.

Without peace, a structure over thirty floors wouldn't have been built.

Without peace, the metal contraptions zooming along the streets wouldn't be available to civilians.

Not to mention, the pedestrians shown on screen appeared lively and healthy, with no hint of weariness. It was clear they ate and slept well.

"Peace... I wonder when our ninja world will truly know peace."

With a sigh, Senju Tobirama fell silent, staring intently at the light screen.

Seeing Hayashi Sora's surprise upon receiving a package at home and finding it contained gold, Senju Tobirama understood the value of gold in that world.

He also silently praised his gesture of giving gold.

It's better to provide timely assistance than to merely add decoration.

Such a saying doesn't exist in the ninja world, but there are similar sentiments.

In the previous video, Hayashi Sora mentioned he had no money, prompting Senju Tobirama to promptly reward him with a piece of gold.

It seems the gesture had a positive effect.

[Thanks so much to uh... Second Hokage Senju Tobirama for the gift. ]

[Logically, I should keep gifts from fans. ]

[Unfortunately, I've been a bit short on funds lately. ]

[Financial strain often leads to irritability. Therefore, I've decided to sell this piece of gold. I hope our fan boss won't hold it against me. ]

Hayashi Sora didn't document the trip to the gold shop to sell the gold.

The scene shifted, and Hayashi Sora had already sold the gold bars and appeared in the supermarket.

[Thanks again to Senju Tobirama for the reward.]

[Finally, I can upgrade my meals.]

[For the past week, all I've had are instant noodles.]

[I'm done with that stuff.]

After Hayashi Sora finished speaking in the scene, a big shopping spree followed.

He picked up plenty of tasty items like beef jerky, milk, cereal, canned fruit, and more.

While waiting in line to pay, Hayashi Sora pointed his phone's camera at himself.

[Alright, that's a wrap for today's video.]

[If you enjoyed this bonus footage, feel free to smash that like button three times.]

[Next up will be the official review video.]

[Let's cut the chit chat. I'm up next to pay.]

[Dear viewers, catch you in the next video!]

Unlike before, the light curtain vanished instantly after the video ended.

There were no options for likes or rewards at all.

This left Senju Tobirama feeling somewhat adrift.

Originally, he had planned to continue giving gold as a reward and discuss ways to achieve peace in the ninja world.

However, the light curtain disregarded his intentions and vanished in an instant.

Once the light curtain disappears, it's gone.

Senju Tobirama estimated it would reappear half a month later.

Whether this was true or not, time would tell.

"Danzo, if there's anything you need to ask, consult Hiruzen. I need some quiet time to think. You all can head back."

"Yes, Sensei."

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo departed.

Only Tobirama Senju remained in the Hokage's office.

What he needed to contemplate was rather straightforward.

The sight of another world on the light curtain convinced Senju Tobirama that it must be a world of peace.

Seeing the wide array of goods in the supermarket not only strengthened his convictions but also piqued his curiosity about the technology related to agriculture, food production, and more in that world.

"So, can he increase food production in the ninja world through the Light Screen, or rather, through Hayashi Sora himself?"

"Since I can offer the other party gold as rewards, then the other party should also be able to give me something."

"Well, after the next video, let's try writing a note."

The next day, Tobirama Senju woke up early as usual and went to the Hokage's office after breakfast.

Before he could switch to work mode, an Anbu suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Hokage-sama, the delegation from the Hidden Cloud Village has arrived in Konoha."

"Oh? Then arrange for them to rest. I'll meet them in the afternoon."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

As early as a week ago, the Hidden Cloud Village had sent a notice to Konoha.

The gist of it was that, for the sake of Kumogakure and Konoha, as well as for the peace of the ninja world, they would send an envoy to communicate with Konoha. 

Their goal was to discuss a suitable time and place for the leaders of both sides to meet and negotiate a peace treaty.

After watching Hayashi Sora's previous video, Senju Tobirama realized that his death could have been during these negotiations.

He would have to wait for Hayashi Sora's next official review video in half a month to find out how he died.

Regardless of the outcome, Senju Tobirama was determined to present a significant gift to the Hidden Cloud Village.

As for the discussion with the Kumogakure delegation, he decided to employ the tactic of procrastination.

He would wait until Hayashi Sora's next video was released to ascertain the circumstances of his death before determining the exact time and place.
