Konoha's Pride, One Finger Strong
A chanical voice rang out:
[The arm-wrestling match: Senju Tsunade vs. Fifth Mizukage Terumi i — begins now!]
Tsunade: "Sorry—"
"This match isn't just between you and . It's a match between Konoha and Hidden Mist Village!"
"That ans I should win everything for Konoha, because— I am Konoha's future Fifth Hokage!"
"So!"
"On the na of Hokage— I absolutely will not lose to you!"
BANG!
"Ah!"
The mont Tsunade finished speaking, she exerted force with her single finger— and instantly won.
[Match Over! Senju Tsunade Wins!]
[In 10 seconds, both contestants will be returned to their original locations.]
[Rewards for winning bets will be distributed in 10 seconds.]
...
Tsunade's victory shocked almost everyone.
Especially First Hokage Hashirama Senju—
Not because of the result…
But because of what Tsunade said.
Ten seconds later—
Tsunade appeared back at Shizune's side.
i Terumi was returned to where Chōjūrō stood.
[Congratulations, Uzumaki Naruto — your bet was correct. Reward: 1 Small Chakra Pack.]
[Congratulations, Hyūga Hinata — 1 Small Chakra Pack.]
[Congratulations, First Hokage Hashirama Senju — 1 Small Chakra Pack.]
[Congratulations, Fourth Raikage A — …]
[...]
The chat was flooded with reward notifications.
Soon, people noticed sothing odd.
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki @ Fourth Raikage A: Didn't you say you were following Madara and betting on i? How did you end up getting rewards?]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju @ Chiyo: Weren't you supporting Konoha? Why didn't you get a reward?]
Neither Fourth Raikage nor Chiyo spoke—both were being publicly slapped in the face.
At least Raikage A wasn't empty-handed.
A beam of golden light fell—
A neatly wrapped gift box appeared in his hand.
He instantly understood: opening the box would grant him chakra.
He unwrapped it—
And imdiately felt his chakra increase.
It rose by only one percent—
but his own chakra reserves were already enormous.
If a normal villager received such a pack, they'd probably reach genin-level chakra instantly.
While everyone examined their rewards—
A new pop-up appeared.
[Fifth Mizukage Terumi i's new userna: "The Childish Brat Not as Good as Tsunade."]
Everyone checked her na in the group list—
Sure enough, "Fifth Mizukage Terumi i" had been replaced with:
"Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat."
[Senju Tsunade @ Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat: Hahaha! That na suits you perfectly.]
[Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat: Damn it! I refuse to accept this! Fight in sothing else!]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju @ Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat]
i saw Hashirama tag her, waited for him to speak, but he didn't.
So she tagged back:
[Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat @ First Hokage Hashirama: Lord Hashirama, is there sothing you needed?]
[First Hokage Hashirama: Nothing, just wanted to look at your userna and laugh.]
[Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat: ...]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju @ Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat]
[Uzumaki Mito @ Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat]
Almost every notable Konoha shinobi took turns tagging i—
without saying anything.
[Not-as-Good-as-Tsunade Childish Brat @ Konoha: Are you all done?! Is this fun for you?!]
[Senju Tsunade: Of course it's fun! Hahahaha!]
As everyone mocked i's new userna—
A new title appeared on the scroll's floating screen.
[The Fourth Raikage & the Other Four Kage VS Uchiha Madara]
The video began.
This scene had appeared before in i Terumi's story—
But this ti, it played through the perspective of Fourth Raikage A.
[Uchiha Madara @ All: So this is the so-called Five Kage level now? I'm not even at full power—just Edo Tensei— and the five of you still couldn't defeat . My advice: stop being Kage and go farm vegetables instead.]
[Uchiha Izuna: Big brother! Mighty! Mighty!! Big brother!!]
[First Hokage Hashirama: Madara, don't say it like that. It's not that they're weak— you're just too strong!]
[Uchiha Madara: True enough. Hashirama— only you deserve to be my opponent.]
No one else spoke.
The Five Kage didn't even try to argue—
Because Madara wasn't wrong.
In Hashirama's era—
He alone could defeat Madara.
Now—
Madara, in an Edo-Tensei-weakened state—
still overwheld the combined power of the Five Kage.
It was undeniable:
The current Kage were simply too weak.
The scroll suddenly trembled—
A beam of golden light descended upon the Hidden Cloud Village.
In the Raikage's office—
The Fourth Raikage was covered in golden light.
He instantly mastered the technique:
100% Guaranteed-Hit Thousand Years of Death.
He suddenly understood its full usage.
"HAHAHAHA!!"
His laughter echoed throughout the tower.
"Let's see who dares provoke now!"
"Even if I can't beat them—"
"I'll make them experience heaven and hell! Hahahaha!"
Mabui stared at him in disgust—
How had she ended up serving such a man?
[Second Hokage Tobirama @ Fourth Raikage: I saw the scroll shine. You really obtained the 100% Guaranteed-Hit Thousand Years of Death, didn't you?]
[Fourth Raikage: Yes! I really got it! But I truly was joking earlier—you all don't need to target . If we fight among ourselves, we're just helping the real enemy.]
[First Hokage Hashirama: I agree—Raikage has a point. Right now we should focus on defeating the true threat of the Fourth Great Ninja War.]
[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya: You? All of you together? And then what? With my power, I obviously have a ranking of my own.]
