Chapter 31

He was also extremely excited.

He knew just how strong his older brother was now.

Since he said it would be useful to him,

that meant this ninjutsu was certainly not an ordinary one.

"Although this ninjutsu cannot guarantee you immediate invincibility in this world…"

"But once you master it, I can guarantee your survival ability will double."

"I have named it the Flying Thunder God Technique!!!"

27. This Hashirama Senju is terrifyingly all-powerful!!!

【Below is Q&A time—audiences in the live stream, please answer.】

【Among the following four options, those who answer correctly will receive a random reward!!】

【When did Hashirama Senju develop the Flying Thunder God Technique?】

【A、At age three, he accidentally gained inspiration for the Flying Thunder God Technique!!!】

【B、While practicing Wood Release, he made a connection and conceived the training method for the Flying Thunder God Technique!!】

【C、After becoming head of the Senju clan, he studied scrolls preserved in the clan and received inspiration, thus creating this ninjutsu!!!】

【D、At the very moment Tobirama Senju first proposed the idea, he had a sudden flash of insight and mentally calculated the ninjutsu on the spot!!!】

When the live stream audience saw Hashirama Senju propose the Flying Thunder God Technique,

they all erupted in chaos!!!

Isn't this the ninjutsu developed by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju?

How come it's now claimed to have been developed by the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju????

Could it be that the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju,

was trying to take credit for himself,

falsely claiming to be its creator?

【Madara Uchiha: Hmph… Some people are truly shameless. The ninjutsu was clearly developed by his older brother, yet he insists he's the founder.】

【Hashirama Senju: Uh… Madara, this ninjutsu really has nothing to do with me—I'm not skilled in space-time ninjutsu… Aside from Wood Release, I have no interest in any other ninjutsu…】

【Tobirama Senju: … Madara Uchiha!! Shut your mouth!! This is not your place to speak!!】

【Tobirama Senju: Brother… I'm now doubting whether I truly developed the Flying Thunder God Technique myself.】

【Orochimaru: Hmph… It seems the First Hokage from the other world is even more terrifying than we imagined. Not only is he powerful, but he can independently develop ninjutsu…】

【Hiruzen Sarutobi: Cough… Master, I believe you are the true creator of the Flying Thunder God Technique. No one else in the ninja world could possibly have achieved this—such a complex ninjutsu requires immense knowledge.】

【Tsunade: Master, no matter how much others doubt you, I believe in you unconditionally—I will always stand by your side!!!】

【Kabuto Yakushi: Has anyone here heard of the term "butterfly effect"? … In my view, space-time is like a calm lake, and the First Hokage's actions are like a small pebble dropped into it—even the slightest movement creates massive ripples, triggering a chain of changes.】

【Orochimaru: Kabuto… I knew I wasn't wrong about you. Your talent rivals mine—if given time, you might even surpass me!!】

【Tobirama Senju: Kabuto… Your analysis as a young man is quite sound.】

【Tobirama Senju: In the other world, many things may appear similar to ours, but in truth, they are fundamentally different.】

…

The Akatsuki,

all of its members stared fixedly at the screen.

"Leader, what do you think the correct answer should be?"

"Of the four options, only the middle two seem plausible—the first and last are ridiculous!!"

Deidara originally had no interest in the rewards offered by the live stream system.

But after seeing the rewards others had received,

he changed his mind.

Although he already believed his art had reached its peak,

achieving the highest level of explosive aesthetics!!

Deidara believed he could do even better.

The end of art has no end.

So he thought,

if he received the system's reward,

perhaps he could gain new inspiration from it,

which might elevate his art to an even higher level??

"Kid, I suggest you select all four options."

"That way, you'll have at least a one-in-four chance of getting the reward!!"

Kakuzu immediately retaliated.

He clearly remembered

how fiercely Deidara had mocked him just moments ago.

Although Kakuzu himself knew

that his strength paled in comparison to Hashirama Senju,

that he had survived Hashirama Senju's hands back then

only because Hashirama Senju had no intention to kill him,

and thus let him go.

But with Deidara here,

It had already devolved into something where his battle with Hashirama Senju was pure fabrication,

which made Kakuzu himself feel like he had nowhere left to hide his old face!!!

But Kakuzu had no way whatsoever to prove it.

So right now he could only seize the chance

to launch a counterattack against Deidara.

"Hmm… then I'll just pick one of these at random in a bit."

"Anyway, I'm not all that interested in these rewards—if I don't get one, so be it."

Deidara completely ignored Kakuzu's vexation.

For someone with no artistic cells whatsoever, no aesthetic sense at all,

Deidara absolutely refused to waste a single drop of saliva!!!

Kakuzu is nothing but a money-grubbing, outdated ninja!!!!

Once this livestream comparison system is over,

Deidara will let him have a proper taste of what true art is!!!!

…

【Shimura Danzo: Hmph!!! This time the rewards the system is offering, I, old man, am bound to get them!!! I choose C!!】

【Orochimaru: Hehe… although I have great confidence in the First Hokage, my lord, the first and last options are simply too outrageous… I choose B.】

【Hiruzen Sarutobi: I hope this time I can receive the system's reward. If I could obtain something useful to me from within, that would be wonderful—then I could continue guarding Konoha. The Will of Fire absolutely cannot be broken off with me!!!】

【Naruto Uzumaki: …Hmm… First Hokage, my man, is just like me—a genius who doesn't take the usual path. So I think he must have come up with this ninjutsu on the spot. This kind of genius thinking, I understand it best. I choose D!!!】

【Sakura Haruno: Naruto!!!! You idiot!!! Can't you even be bothered to use your brain for one second? How could the answers A and D possibly be right?!】

【Sasuke Uchiha: Hmph! … An idiot is an idiot!! I choose C!!!】

【Kushina Uzumaki: Minato… tell me… is our child's brain really okay? … Why do I feel like it's not quite working right?】

【Minato Namikaze: Hahahaha!!! Kushina!! Don't you think a Naruto like this is just adorable? It means this is a good thing—the Nine-Tailed Fox hasn't affected his emotions!!! It means there's nothing wrong with his mind!!】

28. Demolishing Genius Jigen's Explosive Talent!!!

Every viewer in the livestream room

this time chose either option B or C!!!

After all, with these options this time,

even if you answered wrong,
