Sky Curtain: Short Video Commentary on Konoha Villagers

The entire ninja world gasped in shock once again.

In Sunagakure Village, Granny Chiyo sat on a recliner, her hand holding the cane trembling slightly.

"Self-healing without hand seals... It can automatically recover without needing to form hand seals? This kind of physique is the ultimate dream of every medical ninja."

Ebizo stood to the side and sighed.

"Sister, the key point is that Hashirama Senju was able to withstand 600 billion explosive tags with just his physical body. His self-healing ability simply meant he didn't even get injured."

Granny Chiyo remained silent for a moment, then murmured.

"If you used an explosive tag to blow up an ordinary ninja, they would normally be reduced to ashes long ago."

When Konoha was founded, Hashirama Senju looked at the description on the sky and smiled sheepishly.

"Wow, my self-healing ability is this amazing... I didn't even know it myself."

Madara Uchiha crossed his arms, recalling the scene where Hashirama had just taken flesh and blood from his body and transplanted it onto him.

The flesh and blood healed instantly as soon as it left Hashirama's body, but the place where it was transplanted was still throbbing with pain.

This scene reminded him of something that had happened not long ago.

The scene where Hashirama takes out a kunai, preparing to die in Tobirama's place.

Hashirama's self-healing ability is indeed as miraculous as Tenbu described; normally, kunai would be completely unable to harm him in the slightest.

But if he really wants to die...

Given Hashirama's personality, if he truly makes up his mind to do something, he will never turn back.

[If Hashirama's regenerative abilities were so strong, then how exactly did he die?]

The text on the sky slowly emerged.

In fact, Hashirama's true cause of death was also related to his powerful regenerative abilities.

The entire ninja world fell silent once again.

On the streets of Konoha Village, the villagers looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Didn't the First Hokage die of illness after fighting that damned Madara Uchiha?"

"Is there something else going on?"

The visuals on the sky switch, providing an explanation.

As is well known, whenever Hashirama's body is attacked, his cells work at breakneck speed to heal all wounds.

It's worth noting that his granddaughter, Tsunade, inherited his ability to heal himself, and thus developed the S-rank medical ninjutsu, Creation Regeneration Technique.

The principle behind this is to use chakra to stimulate proteins, thereby accelerating cell division.

It not only heals wounds but also promotes the regeneration of internal organs and tissues.

【but,】

The number of times a human cell can divide is limited.

In other words, accelerating cell division is essentially equivalent to shortening one's lifespan.

The entire ninja world was stunned at that moment.

In Konoha Village, Tsunade stood at the window of the Hokage Building, looking at the words on the sky, her expression changing slightly.

Shizune whispered from the side, "Lady Tsunade... is what Tenbu said true?"

Tsunade was silent for a moment, then gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"The principle of creation and regeneration is indeed to accelerate cell division... but there is indeed a price to pay."

"I just never imagined that Grandpa would die because of this."

Jiraiya walked to her side with a very serious expression, just about to say a few words of comfort.

"Tsunade..."

Tsunade interrupted him.

"Don't try to comfort me. I was already prepared for this."

In the underground base of Otogakure, Orochimaru looked at the words on the sky without any surprise.

He had long known that there was a limit to the number of cells, but that was all he knew.

He cannot control cell division, nor can he raise the upper limit, so he can only keep searching for a body he can possess.

If only I had a body that ages very slowly...

During the founding of Konoha, Hashirama Senju looked at the words on the sky and blinked.

"So, I died because I recovered too quickly..."

"No wonder I never feel tired after a fight."

"So it turns out they were directly overdrawing their life force..."

In the border forest of the Land of Lightning, Tobirama Senju looked at the words on the sky and slowly closed his eyes.

The cause of my brother's death... was actually like this.

He always thought that his older brother had exhausted himself in the final battle with Madara and had passed away peacefully.

Unexpectedly, what truly killed his elder brother was the power he was born with.

The sky continued to roll.

As the reincarnation of the God of Shinobi and Ashura, Hashirama Senju possessed an innate ability to regenerate, which was beyond his control.

Therefore, whenever Hashirama is injured, the cells in his body automatically divide, thus healing all his wounds.

During the Warring States period, the frequency of battles between Hashirama and Madara could be described as a minor skirmish every three days and a major battle every five days.

The scene cuts in.

On the desolate plains of the Warring States period, the young Hashirama and Madara clashed time and again.

Amidst the clash of swords and the collision of chakra, the earth was torn apart and then healed by the power of the two.

During each battle, Hashirama's wounds would heal completely within seconds.

But no one knew that beneath those restored skin, Hashirama's life was slowly slipping away.

Therefore, in essence, every battle Hashirama fought was a way of consuming his own lifespan.

...

Orochimaru: Even the mighty God of Shinobi cannot escape life and death. Cells are truly wondrous.

The scene on the sky changed again.

[The other two members of Team 7 can summon whatever they call, but Naruto's summons will come whoever is available.]

The entire ninja world fell silent for a moment.

[Mei Terumi: ...Why does this title sound a little heartbreaking?]

[Jiraiya: After all, everyone has their own things to do, but Bunta really does often stand people up.]

The scene transitions to a celestial backdrop.

Sasuke stood in an open space, his hands forming a hand seal.

With a puff of white smoke, a huge green snake raised its head from the smoke.

Sasuke stood on the head of the green snake, and the green snake dared not overstep its bounds, calling out respectfully.

"Lord Sasuke, please give your orders."

Screen switch.

Sakura stood on the training field, the diamond-shaped mark on her forehead glowing faintly. She clasped her hands together and summoned a slug.

The enormous slug lay on the ground, its body twitching softly.

She spoke, her voice gentle and warm, as if she were a wife showing tenderness to her junior.

"Sakura-chan, you can finally activate the Hundred Healings Seal!"

[Fourth Raikage A: The relationship between summoned beasts and ninjas is primarily based on a contract; this attitude is normal.]

[Kurotsuchi: Indeed, most summoned beasts interact in this way.]

The scene shifted again, and the camera panned to Naruto.

Naruto formed hand seals and slammed them onto the ground.

The white smoke dissipated.

A toad with a cigarette dangling from its mouth was squatting on the ground.

It blew out a smoke ring, looked at the surprised Naruto, and spoke casually as if it were a guy it had just bumped into on the street.

"My dad's busy mediating, so I came. Surprised? What happened? Just say the word, we're all brothers."

The entire ninja world was silent for two seconds.

Mei Terumi: ...? ? ? ?

[Fourth Raikage A: Is this what a summoning beast says to its summoner?!]

On the training ground of Konoha Village, Naruto stared wide-eyed at the toad in the sky, a cigarette dangling from its mouth.

"This toad... is it my buddy?"

He scratched his head, a puzzled look on his face.

"But I've never seen it before."

Kakashi leaned against a tree trunk, his dead fish eyes gazing at the sky, and slowly began to speak.

"That's for the future, Naruto. It seems you get along well with the toad clan."

The text on the screen continued to scroll.

[And don't let Gamakichi's usual habit of always having a cigarette in his mouth fool you; when it comes to trouble, he's a real go-getter.]

[When it was still a tadpole, it would come running at Naruto's slightest sound, its main trait being loyalty.]

...

In a few pages, I'll need to write down the details of the bullying from earlier. ᗜⰙᗜ

In the early stages, to avoid making the pace seem too fast.
