Bab 25: Chapter 25 : New Audience, The Third Hokage!!
Hayashi Sora made the video and uploaded it to Bilibili as usual. After finishing the upload, he noticed a small red dot in the background.
This red dot indicated new, unchecked messages.
Without hesitation, Hayashi Sora moved the mouse and clicked on the red dot.
"What is this deviation value?"
"Uncle is really getting more and more chaotic. He didn't even post an announcement when updating the website with new features?"
Seeing the deviation value of 2 points and the words "new audience connection" displayed on the computer, Hayashi Sora couldn't help but complain.
Just as he was about to open the site's Content Creator group on Penguin to ask other Content Creators about the deviation value, a phone call came in.
"Hello? I'm going out. Please order first. I'll be there soon."
His friends had already arrived at the restaurant, so Hayashi Sora didn't bother with the deviation value. He turned off the computer and left.
In the 60th year of Konoha, the Third Hokage was already 69 years old.
Standing by the window of the Hokage's office, looking at the brightly lit and prosperous Konoha outside, the Third Hokage felt very satisfied.
"Tobirama-sensei, I have lived up to your expectations. Now the residents of Konoha are living happily."
Muttering to himself, the Third Hokage couldn't help but recall the scene when Sensei Tobirama covered their retreat.
If Tobirama hadn't been determined to sacrifice himself and asked him to cover the rear while he and the other five companions retreated, he might not have become Hokage.
At the very least, this old fellow Danzo has always been obsessed with the position of Hokage.
Given the situation back then, it was possible that either he or Danzo would become Hokage.
Fortunately, his courage moved Tobirama and gained his recognition, which allowed him to successfully become the Third Hokage.
"It would be great if Tobirama-sensei could see what's happening now."
It's normal to want to show off to your teacher when you've achieved something.
Unfortunately, he knew that Tobirama-sensei had been dead for many years. How could he have lived to see the prosperity of Konoha today?
"I should also go back to rest. There is no room for error in the final stage of the Chunin Exam tomorrow."
Thinking about the Chunin Exam, he thought of his disciple Orochimaru.
His traces were found in the Forest of Death some time ago. Just in case, he specifically summoned Jiraiya back from his travels.
He believed that with both himself and Jiraiya present, Orochimaru should not be able to cause any trouble.
"When a man gets old, he tends to be sentimental."
Shaking his head, the Third Hokage turned and started to walk out the door.
Just as he took a step forward, a bright curtain of light suddenly appeared on the desk.
"What is this?"
The Third Hokage reacted quickly, jumping to the door and staring at the light curtain with a serious expression.
At the same time, four Anbu members responsible for protecting him also appeared around him.
The five of them stood there waiting for a long time, and found that the light curtain did not respond. Then a brave Anbu suggested, "Hokage, how about letting me check it out?"
The Third Hokage agreed without a second thought.
"Be careful."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
The Anbu cautiously walked towards the light curtain.
When he arrived at the desk, he touched the light curtain with his hand and found that it had no substance at all. His hand passed through the light curtain easily.
When he withdrew his hand and turned back to ask the Third Hokage what to do, the halo on the light curtain began to flow.
Soon, a scene that was very familiar to the Third Hokage began to appear on the light curtain.
Along with the picture, there was also a strange voice.
[Hi Hi Hi]
In the 21st year of Konoha, Tobirama and six disciples had already sat down, waiting for the light curtain to appear at eight o'clock.
"Hiruzen, according to the light curtain's previous reviews, this time it should be your turn as the Third Hokage."
After all, Danzo Shimura was Hiruzen Sarutobi's partner.
He didn't want their relationship to sour because of the Hokage position.
Recently, Hiruzen Sarutobi had been trying to mend their bond, and they had reconciled—at least on the surface.
"Don't toy with me, Danzo. I know you also want to cover our rear, but I just happened to speak first."
"Hehe, good that you recognize it. Judging from my expression in the light curtain's video, I must have been taken aback by Tobirama-sensei's statement, which is why you spoke up first."
Observing the prideful Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled, "Danzo, you really are something."
"Hmph, today I want to see how you, as the Third Hokage, handle your responsibilities."
Tobirama did not intervene in Danzo and Hiruzen's conversation.
Would Tobirama tell Danzo that even if he expressed a desire to cover the rear, he would likely let him do so, rather than become Third Hokage?
Under normal circumstances, if Danzo were to declare his aspiration to be Hokage in front of many clan leaders, he might have had a chance.
However, the other clans would never accept Danzo just because of his decisions on the battlefield which can't be verified.
After all, Danzo was just an ordinary member of the Shimura clan, despite his considerable talents.
Unlike Hiruzen, who was the clan heir of the Sarutobi clan.
With support from the Sarutobi clan, other clans would likely have fewer objections, at least initially.
As for the others—Akimichi clan's Torifu, who were closely tied to the Nara and Yamanaka clans.
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, whose backing was limited.
Uchiha Kagami, whose surname alone precluded him from becoming Hokage.
Thus, at that time, only Hiruzen could take on such a crucial role.
Tobirama would never voice these thoughts to Hiruzen or anyone else.
At this moment, he wondered greatly about the future of Konoha in the decades to come.
In the previous review video, he caught only a glimpse and didn't see the entire view of Konoha.
All he knew was that Konoha at that time must have been very prosperous.
Not only was he curious, but the other disciples were also curious.
Excluding the extra footage from last time.
It was their first time watching the review video together.
With excitement and nervousness, eight o'clock sharp arrived and the light curtain appeared on schedule.
"Hi, hi, hello everyone, I'm the new Content Creator Hayashi Sora."
"In this episode, let's talk about our Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen."
"Here he comes."
Upon seeing his image on the screen and hearing Hayashi Sora's voice, Sarutobi Hiruzen adjusted his clothes, sat up straight, and looked at himself on the screen with a serious expression.
"Young Hiruzen had a face that fans were drawn to but rarely got to see. With the backing of the Sarutobi clan, he mastered nature transformations, secret techniques, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, and forbidden jutsu."
"He's Konoha's first-generation Ninjutsu Professor, known as Little Kakashi."
