Everyone in the Tobirama office noticed that the light curtain had not yet vanished.
New options appeared on the light screen.
[Do you want to apply to travel to the world of the second viewer?]
[Apply][Reject]
"Can we still visit Konoha forty years from now?"
Everyone was surprised by the new choices displayed on the screen.
The image on the light screen only showed a very small part of Konoha Village.
Even this small glimpse was enough to make everyone present feel a deep sense of longing.
Now that they had this chance, Hiruzen and the other six were naturally eager to go and see it for themselves.
However, the only one who could make this decision was Tobirama Senju.
Danzo, unable to contain his curiosity any longer, asked, "Teacher, should we go over and take a look?"
Senju Tobirama did not answer Danzo directly but turned to the other students and asked, "Do you want to go over and take a look?"
"Teacher, we want to go."
"Yes, teacher. We want to visit Konoha forty years from now."
Tobirama nodded and continued, "Don't get your hopes up too high. What is written on the light curtain is [Apply]. Who should we [Apply] to? I suppose it should be the Third Hokage. If he doesn't agree, we probably won't be able to get through."
With that said, Tobirama clicked to confirm.
"Let's wait and see if the Third Hokage will allow us to pass."
The Third Hokage was very conflicted at this moment.
On one hand, he wanted Tobirama-sensei to come and see how prosperous Konoha Village had become under his leadership.
On the other hand, he was hesitant about Tobirama-sensei visiting.
Once Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage and his teacher, arrives, who will Konoha listen to?
Listen to Senju Tobirama?
He was unwilling to accept that.
He is the true ruler of this village. Does anyone expect him to relinquish his power?
Impossible.
If the village still follows him?
What will his mentor, Senju Tobirama, think?
From his own experience, he knew Tobirama would certainly be displeased.
How dare a disciple defy his teacher?
Then don't blame me if I have to clean up the mess!
Damn it, you bastard.
The Third Hokage couldn't help but shiver at the thought.
Everyone knows their own capabilities. If it came to a fight with Tobirama, even considering his age, he would be no match for the opponent.
So, should he agree or refuse?
Standing there, the Third Hokage pondered for over a minute, sweating heavily.
He felt that if he didn't make a decision soon, he might collapse.
This was far more exhausting than fighting someone else.
"I don't know how long Tobirama-sensei will be here. If it's only for a few days, it might be possible to agree."
Perhaps he heard the Third Hokage's murmurs, as some words appeared on the screen, answering his question.
[Travelers can only stay in other people's worlds for one hour.]
[The time point of the time travel can be any time within the next three days.]
[Note: As more viewers connect in the future, the duration of the travelers' stay will increase, the available time points will expand, and the number of characters brought along will also increase.]
[The current number of official review videos is: three.]
"Is this already the third review video?"
"If I'm correct, the first two must be from the first and second hokages."
Glancing at the notes on the light screen, the Third Hokage felt a sense of relief.
Just one hour's time.
In such a brief period, there wasn't much he could do even if he wanted to.
Moreover, since he could travel back in time at any point within the next three days, the Third Hokage readily agreed to Tobirama's request without hesitation.
The time for the time travel was set for 9:30 tomorrow morning.
This timing coincided exactly with when Orochimaru would initiate the "Godfather, love me again" plan.
Phew~
It's time to set the Konoha collapse plan into motion.
The Third Hokage had originally planned for Jiraiya to pose as his bodyguard and assist him in confronting Orochimaru.
Now, Jiraiya would focus solely on dealing with the giant snake summoned beast outside the village.
The task of handling Orochimaru would fall to himself and Tobirama-sensei.
He imagined Orochimaru's confusion upon seeing Tobirama-sensei.
Thinking of this, the Third Hokage couldn't help but laugh.
Orochimaru: That's odd. How is there a real one here?
"Alright, they've agreed."
After the Third Hokage consented to Tobirama's request, the light curtain on Tobirama's side also displayed the time for their departure.
Since the light screen had shown three official review videos, Tobirama was now able to bring three people along with him.
Faced with the limitation of bringing only three people, Mitokado Homuran, Utatane Koharu, and Akimichi Torifu were a bit disappointed.
The three of them understood that Tobirama-sensei would most likely not choose them.
As expected, Tobirama chose Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami.
The reasons behind these choices were actually quite simple.
Firstly, the strength of these three was among the top three among the six students.
Secondly, it was Tobirama's personal whim.
He was curious about what interesting events would occur when the young version of Hiruzen and the old version of the Third Hokage, and the young version of Danzo and the old version of Danzo, met.
Moreover, Tobirama wondered if the Uchiha clan would mistakenly believe that the young Uchiha Kagami was an imposter and attack him unjustly.
Haha, Tobirama found the thought amusing.
"Alright, now that this matter is settled, let's all head back."
With the confirmation of the chosen individuals, the light curtain disappeared.
There was no reason for Tobirama and the others to stay in the office.
After leaving the office, Sarutobi Hiruzen found Orochimaru. The two talked for a long time, and no one knew what they discussed.
Uchiha Kagami returned to the clan, found the clan leader, and after obtaining permission, went to the library to search for information.
Danzo Shimura had an easier time. He returned home and went to bed early, aiming to conserve his energy for a spectacular performance in the next day's Konoha collapse plan, hoping to impress the old monkey with his heroic spirit.
Meanwhile, as planned, Tobirama Senju used Flying Thunder God to arrive at the hill where Uchiha Madara was buried.
After digging for half an hour and opening Madara's coffin, Tobirama's face suddenly darkened.
There was no body of Uchiha Madara in the coffin.
"It seems that you are really not dead, Madara."
The absence of Uchiha Madara's body was a very troubling outcome for Senju Tobirama.
In that battle, even his eldest brother was seriously injured, which eventually led to his death a few years later.
Why didn't Uchiha Madara, who was stabbed in the back by his elder brother, die?
"I hope there will be something to be gained from Kagami."
Muttering to himself, Tobirama spent some time restoring everything here to its original state, and then used Flying Thunder God to leave this place.
After Tobirama left, a pale figure suddenly emerged from beneath a tree not far from Madara's grave.
This person was none other than a White Zetsu.
"I've been lurking here for a year, and I thought it would always be boring."
"I didn't expect the Second Hokage to be quite capable. He discovered that Madara-sama had faked his death."
"I hope the next mission Madara-sama assigns won't be as dull as this one."
After muttering a few words to himself, White Zetsu dove underground and began to rush towards the border between the Land of Rice and the Takigakure.
The name of this place is: Mountains' Graveyard.
Uchiha Madara, who faked his death, hid here.
