Live stream of Naruto's Nine Gates Prison, Uchiha explodes

More money! We absolutely need to pay more!

Although he thought this to himself, the White Zetsu ninja was very well-mannered and outwardly still stood up for Rubik's Cube.

But in my mind, I was already discussing with my partner how to change the subject, since the Rubik's Cube itself wasn't optimized well, and it couldn't even be cleaned properly.

(We can start with the benefits, using the ninja that the cube is giving away this time to divert their attention and make them ignore the issues of optimization and attitude.)

(But weren't those ninjas meant to be given away anyway? Only Izuna was actually given away...)

(Wow, so much stuff, and there's also 10000 gold coins, let's just avoid some of the problems and blindly praise the advantages!)

(By the way, you guys pretend to be normal people, first go around saying bad things about the Rubik's Cube, then a few of you go around saying good things about it, saying that with so many benefits, that's enough, then those who said bad things about the Rubik's Cube will turn around and say good things about it. This way, you can make them argue about the pros and cons of the Rubik's Cube, thus ignoring the optimization issues!)

The white zealots devised a plan, which successfully sparked a debate about the quality of the Rubik's Cube.

Seeing the crowd arguing heatedly, the White Zetsu smiled.

But the good times didn't last long. Everyone quickly came to their senses and gradually moved on from arguing about the quality of the Rubik's Cube, leaving the White Zetsu sweating profusely.

Just then...

"What kind of perks are these! The Rubik's Cubes are like handing out beggar's loot; we want free Ninja Scrolls! Free Obito! Understand?!"

After one of the ninjas finished speaking, he noticed that the atmosphere around him had become strange.

Some ninjas had strange expressions, while others looked on with complete agreement, agreeing with the man's words almost without thinking.

"Exactly! This is like giving a beggar a free meal! At least a Ninja Scroll would be more appropriate!"

"In my opinion, not only should we send out Ninja Scrolls, but all future Ninja Scroll ninjas must be sold for 25! We must treat them the same as the pirates!"

As they talked, they gradually stopped.

They then realized they had fallen behind the main force, and every ninja was glaring at them with uncontrollable rage.

"What we want isn't just ninjas, it's attitude! Attitude!"

"You bunch of scum! All you ever think about is welfare, welfare! Is it true that if you get enough welfare, you'd sell your conscience to Rubik's Cube?!"

"Even the senior next door only calls her 'Mom,' you guys are practically Rubik's Cube's dogs!"

Seeing the Allied Shinobi Forces crumbling internally, the White Zetsu appeared serious, but were actually ecstatic inside.

(Hahaha...no, which White Zetsu came up with this idea? Just one sentence was enough to turn the tide and cause the Allied Shinobi Forces to fall apart!)

(Yeah, how could anyone come up with such a brilliant idea? And look at White Zetsu's reaction, it's like it's a given, like that's exactly what he was thinking...)

(Wait a minute, he doesn't seem to be a White Zetsu, he's just a normal ninja...)

(...)

The white Zetsu fell silent.

Amidst the ninjas' condemnations, the White Zetsu also offered sincere praise.

"Urine."

"It's urine."

……

Dude, aren't you going to run away?

Looking at Toad Hiro, who was still staying in the sky, the sky asked curiously.

"There's no way around it, I haven't finished my lines yet, so I can't log off."

[Anything else? Dude, look at all those empty promises you've made! You've already painted so many, and you still want to paint more?]

[Hiroshi's expression was serious.]

"How is this just empty promises? Don't talk nonsense. I'm on the players' side. As the top leader of Naruto, my starting point is always for the players' benefit. I just want Naruto to be easier to understand!"

Seeing Gamahiro's resolute expression, the sky seemed to waver for a moment.

Could it be that Toad Hiro really is...?

"Okay, I've finished my lines, I'm off now, bye-bye."

Before Tianmu could react, Hama Guang leaped away from Tianmu with a perfect frog jump.

【…】

From then on, two new idioms appeared in the ninja world.

One is called "Toad Drawing a Cake".

This phrase describes someone who speaks outrageously and yet confidently believes others will believe them.

The other one is called the Hokage Leader.

A self-deprecating term used to describe someone who tries to gain forgiveness from a particular group.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Gamahiro, who has already left.

As for Gamabunta, who is still in the ninja world... use your imagination.

……

"Humans are like this: even if they come together for a common goal, they will fall apart in various ways as soon as interests arise, and eventually internal conflicts will erupt, leading to their self-destruction."

Madara Uchiha coldly watched the disintegrating crowd, a disdainful smile on his face.

"Old man, you're talking as if you experienced it yourself..."

Madara Uchiha tilted his head back at a 45-degree angle, his face showing a look of reminiscence.

"When I left the village, not a single member of my tribe was willing to follow me..."

"That's when I realized that humans are creatures that drive harm and pursue profit."

"They yearn for the peace of village building, and therefore refuse to let me lead them into an uncertain future again..."

Watching Madara Uchiha reminisce about his glorious past, Obito Uchiha silently took out his phone.

"Hello, is this a mental hospital? I have an elderly, lonely person here who needs care..."

The crowd grew increasingly noisy.

In the end, Tianmu, in a fit of anger, sent everyone back to the Ninja World.

Go back to your ninja world and keep arguing! I, Tianmu, need to rest!

[Oh right, I forgot to tell them about the adjustment announcement... Oh well, they'll check the announcement when they start playing and things don't feel right. No need to worry about it.]

After convincing himself, Tianmu led the man and the fox towards the Death God Space.

(Minato, don't you think there's a bit too little content on the sky screen today?)

(Yeah, something just feels off...)

……

"...I'm back."

Obito Uchiha regained his senses, quickly adjusted his state, and transformed back into the "masked man".

"Alright, time waits for no one. Zetsu, where is the Four-Tails Jinchuriki? Let's arrange for people to capture him right away!"

Black Zetsu emerged from the ground with a strange expression.

"How about we change our target? I think the Five-Tails Jinchuriki who's staying in Iwagakure would be pretty good..."

The masked man looked displeased.

"Isn't the Four-Tails Jinchuriki also from Iwagakure? We can just go to Iwagakure and capture the Five-Tails while we're at it. Stop talking nonsense. Where exactly is the Four-Tails Jinchuriki in the Land of Rock...?"

Black Zetsu's expression was strange.

"Is it possible... that they're not even within the Land of Rock?"

The masked man was silent for a second.

As astute as he was, Black Zetsu's hesitant attitude made him realize that something was amiss.

The masked man points to the shadows.

Black Jue nodded solemnly.

"...This Four-Tails Jinchuriki, tsk, I suddenly feel that the number four is unlucky. I should capture the Five-Tails Jinchuriki first."

……

Two figures, one tall and one short, walked through the eerie streets of Konoha, lost in thought.

"Sasuke-san... was Konoha Village... really this shady back then?"

Uchiha Sasuke: "..."

How did he know?

Not to mention Boruto, even he, a native of Konoha, almost didn't recognize that this was Konoha.

"Three-colored dumplings! The most authentic three-colored dumplings in Konoha!"

Uchiha Sasuke asked for a skewer and put it in his mouth.

Mmm, the authentic flavor of old wood leaves.
