Sky Curtain: Short Video Commentary on Konoha Villagers

[Fourth Raikage A: ...]

[Fourth Raikage A: With this setup, once this kid grows up, his chakra reserves might not even be as high as the First Hokage's, right?]

[Hashirama Senju: Hahaha! Tobirama, see? I told you disbanding the Senju clan was the right thing to do! Look how excellent their descendants are after integrating into Konoha!]

Tobirama Senju: .....

In the 46th year of Konoha, Minato and Kushina remained silent for a long while.

Kushina spoke first, "Minato... are you really from the Senju clan?"

Minato scratched his head and gave a somewhat helpless smile.

"I don't know either. My parents have never mentioned any family background. They just say we are ordinary villagers of Konoha."

The celestial backdrop transitions.

What would have happened to Konoha if the Third Hokage had let Orochimaru become Hokage?

Many people believe that by the time Orochimaru became Hokage and Boruto was around, the villagers of Konoha were already capable of cyberbullying others online.

...

[Fourth Raikage A: Cyberbullying? What's that?]

[Mei Terumi: Violence? Cyberbullying? The villagers of Konoha have a new way to play?]

[Deidara: No, can you guys speak like humans?]

The text in the sky continued to appear.

But the reality is quite the opposite.

The Third Shinobi World War inflicted enormous losses on Konoha.

Danzo seized the opportunity to kick the Third Hokage while he was down, and impeached him.

The Third Hokage, feeling deeply guilty, agreed to appoint a new Hokage.

However, Hiruzen and Danzo disagreed on the selection of the new Hokage.

The scene cuts in.

meeting room.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in the main seat, while Danzo Shimura stood opposite him, leaning on his cane.

"Hiruzen, it's time for you to step down."

Danzo's voice was flat.

"You are largely to blame for how the war has turned out this way."

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent.

"The candidate for the new Hokage..."

Danzo interrupted him.

Orochimaru.

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head.

"no."

The two stared at each other, neither willing to back down.

The bullet screen area started scrolling.

[Fourth Raikage A: Danzo wanted Orochimaru to become Hokage? Was he out of his mind?]

[Onoki from the Two Libras: Orochimaru hadn't started human experimentation back then, right? At least not openly.]

[Mei Terumi: Even if he didn't do anything, his cold and aloof demeanor doesn't seem like that of someone who could be Hokage.]

[Kurotsuchi: Minato Namikaze is so sunny. Why would Danzo choose Orochimaru?]

Orochimaru: Danzo did indeed contact me. But that was a long time ago. As for why he recommended me, hehehe....

Konoha Year 48, Hokage's office.

Minato Namikaze stared at the words on the sky in silence for a moment.

"What would Konoha become if Orochimaru became Hokage?"

The text in the sky continued to appear.

But what if the Third Hokage really agrees to let Orochimaru become Hokage?

What will Konoha look like then?

First of all, if Orochimaru becomes Hokage, Konoha will definitely become a militarily powerful village!

At this point, Orochimaru was obsessed with power and immortality, and could be described as a madman driven mad by demonic possession.

He conducted a series of human experiments for these horrific purposes.

After he became Hokage, these experiments, which should have been conducted in secret, could now be carried out openly.

The scene cuts in.

Imagine the scene:

Orochimaru, dressed in the Hokage's robes, stands on the roof of the Hokage Building.

Behind him, in the shadows, were rows of culture tanks.

below.

On the streets of Konoha Village.

The undercover agents, wearing animal masks, are on patrol.

But they weren't arresting enemies, they were arresting villagers.

The scene then changes.

Underground laboratory.

People were lying on rows of lab tables.

There are ninjas and civilians.

Orochimaru stood in the middle, holding a vial of green reagent in his hand. At this moment, the corners of his mouth resembled those of a split-mouthed woman.

[Onoki, the Two-Scale Libra: I always said Orochimaru wasn't cut out to be Hokage. He's cut out to be a madman.]

Mei Terumi: Villagers of Konoha are being kidnapped and experimented on in the streets? Is anyone still willing to live in this village?

[Kurotsuchi: A militarily strong village? Orochimaru himself is the one who's strong. The villagers have all become expendable resources.]

Konoha 60 years ago, the underground base of Otogakure.

Orochimaru looked at the imagined scene on the sky and licked his upper lip with his long tongue.

"The Hokage's Divine Robe..."

There was a hint of regret in his voice.

"If Danzo had won back then, maybe I really could have worn it."

Kabuto Yakushi stood to the side, adjusting his glasses.

"Lord Orochimaru, if you were Hokage, you should have plenty of funding for your experiments."

Orochimaru smiled.

"It's not just funding; the entire village's resources can be used for research."

He looked at his reflection in the image of himself standing in front of the culture tank on the screen, a hint of longing flashing in his eyes.

"What a pity."

The Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi trembled as he looked at the image of Orochimaru in the Hokage robes on the sky.

"I... definitely did not make the wrong choice."

Jiraiya patted him on the shoulder.

"Old man, don't get agitated. You didn't choose him, and he didn't become Hokage."

The large characters on the sky began to roll again.

Orochimaru's research included techniques such as the Cursed Seal and the Reanimation Jutsu (Life Extension Technique).

[And clones like Mitsuki who can use Sage Mode]

[Including the S-rank forbidden technique, Impure World Reincarnation, which may also be used on a large scale in battle.]

[Konoha can definitely become the strongest of the Five Great Shinobi Villages with these advantages!]

Hidden Rock Village.

When Onoki saw these unfamiliar things, his legs felt weak.

Onoki pushed aside the yellow earth and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.

Konoha's foundation is terrifying; even a random rogue ninja could overturn the ninja world's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or structure) with the forbidden techniques they possess.

These information gaps are like a blunt knife hanging over the heads of other ninja villages.

The text on the screen continued to be output.

[It's important to remember that the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was able to keep Konoha undefeated in the First Shinobi World War using only the most basic Edo Tensei army!]

Orochimaru's obsessive research will perfect many terrifying ninjutsu techniques.

[There might be a legion of clones capable of activating Cursed Seal Mode or Sage Mode.]

[Konoha under his rule was an absolutely terrifying place.]

Forest on the border of the Land of Lightning.

Tobirama Senju leaned against a tree trunk, his arms crossed over his chest.

The young Hiruzen Sarutobi turned to look at his teacher.

"Tobirama-sensei, is the Impure World Reincarnation really that powerful?"

Tobirama Senju did not give a direct answer, but simply uttered a cold sentence.

"The techniques I invented are naturally powerful weapons on the battlefield. It's just that this junior, Orochimaru, has managed to perfect my techniques to such an extent."

The comment section was flooded with messages again.

[Fourth Raikage A: Tobirama Senju! Was this the kind of underhanded tactic you used to fight back then?]

[Onoki of the Two Scales: He was already invincible with his basic Edo Tensei, but Orochimaru's perfected Edo Tensei, coupled with his clone army...]

Hidden Cloud Village.

A cold sweat poured down Ai's back.

"These crazy researchers don't play by the rules at all!"

Text appeared in the sky.

However, as everyone knows, Orochimaru is not a sunny person.

Orochimaru was backed by Danzo at this time.

He himself is someone who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

The two will stop at nothing to kill anyone who stands in their way of gaining power.

[Danzo, in his quest to seize the Hokage position, even sent the Root organization to assassinate the Third Hokage.]

[But what if Orochimaru became Hokage?]

Danzo was destined to die.

The underground base of Otogakure Village.

Orochimaru looked at the scene on the sky and let out a low chuckle.

Kabuto Yakushi stood to the side, adjusting his glasses.

"Lord Orochimaru, it seems that if you become Hokage, the first person you'll deal with is Lord Danzo."

Orochimaru turned around and walked towards the rows of culture tanks.

"A man like Danzo is only fit to be a stepping stone. If I were to put him on equal footing with me, he would hinder my research."

The underground base of the roots.

Danzo curled his lip in disdain, not surprised by Orochimaru's tactic of discarding him after he had served his purpose.

If he were the Hokage, and Orochimaru were still in the village, he would also eliminate this person who knew his secrets.

The text on the celestial screen continues:

The village ninjas live in constant fear that they might become the subjects of horrific human experiments.

The Uchiha clan should be even more afraid.

[Orochimaru might use my eyes for research someday.]
