"Hokage-sama wants today's competition to be a big event to raise the morale of the village, rather than just a competition within the school.
Do you kids realize how important morale is in wartime?!!
A ninja without morale is easily depressed, and a depressed ninja is easily distracted. And a distracted ninja on the battlefield is doomed to die!
You children, you are not here today to participate in a competition, you are here today to decide the fate of Konoha! Fight with all your might and tell the adults and civilians that their future is in good hands! Fight with all your might and show the ninja who you are and keep the fire burning in their hearts!!!"
At Morino Ibiki's words of encouragement, almost all the ninjas stopped talking amongst themselves and turned their heads in his direction. The civilians did not have as clear hearing as the ninjas, but the civilians near the entrance to the arena witnessed the weight of the speech.
More importantly, they were not the only ones who heard the speech and were affected by it; the Hokage and his three sidekicks also heard it. As the Hokage grinned slightly under his hat, Yuta also looked at the excitement of the children around him before grinning slightly under his hat.
The children were all on the edge of their seats with excitement after the speech was over, while the overly emotional ones like Obito were already crying. Even the boy from the Nara clan had secretly clenched his fists and decided to do his best with hard eyes.
Yuta smiled slightly as he looked at these children and decided to make today's battle a real spectacle. So what if the sun was shining? Wasn't all he had to do in the end to cover the sun?

As time passed, all the classes took their seats outside the battlefields and waited. Meanwhile, a blonde beauty appeared at the entrance to the stadium. With steady steps, the beauty made her way in the direction of where the Hokage and the village leaders were seated and quickly placed a chair near the Hokage for Tsunade to sit.
Tsunade was still halfway there when someone in the crowd opened his mouth to say something, not bothering to hide his voice. "Aree, the Princess of Konoha is still alive? I thought she had died after not visiting the hospital and the battlefield for so long."
As if those words had started a forest fire, the other villagers began to gossip. Tsunade's hearing was so well-developed that she could easily hear the low-voiced criticism coming from everywhere, and naturally, she heard all the low-voiced insults.
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen lost the smile that had just appeared with Ibiki's speech when he heard the fire of gossip starting. He had not called thousands of villagers here for them to gossip.
Meanwhile, Tsunade took a deep breath, and then, as if she hadn't heard anything, she calmly sat down on the seat prepared for her and began to search with her eyes for the brats in her charge.
"Hey Yuta, don't do anything crazy." Morino Ibiki immediately felt the need to warn his student, who was locked in his intentions to kill the person who had started the gossip. Fortunately, Yuta was already aware that ninja killing civilians would never be allowed in this village, and after taking one last look at the man to remember his face, he bowed his head.
After thinking for a while, Yuta realized that the man had no memorable features. Then, remembering his twice-in-a-lifetime ability, he raised his hand and used the system to take a picture of the man.
[ Analyzing photo... ]
[ Congratulations you've caught a silver moment; a root protruding out of the ground ]
[ Photo prize: single color polaroid camera (Unlimited film) ]
[ Prize placed in your shadow ]
Yuta hesitated for only a few seconds after looking at his prize in surprise and then, manipulating the shadows, he reached into the darkness right next to him from his seat and pulled out a camera.
The level of technological advancement in the Naruto world was already quite strange, probably in the Iron Country or some other country the camera had already been invented and probably the technology was as old as it was in the system.
Most people didn't see Yuta pulling a strange device out of the darkness, but a few people who were paying attention saw it.
Tsunade was looking at Yuta at that moment, wondering what Yuta thought of her because of the rumors that people around her were making, and she got a clear view of what Yuta was doing. At the same time, the Hokage had been looking at Yuta for some time, wondering what Yuta was going to do about the rumors.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little happy to see Yuta looking at the man who had started the rumors with the intent to kill, but he thought it might be an act. Then he could hardly hide the smile on his face when he saw Yuta pull out a strange weapon and point it at the same man, using the ability he thought Yuta would hide from everyone.
When you send a child to spy on a woman like Tsunade, the child will inevitably develop feelings for Tsunade. As Sarutobi observed how Yuta's weapon would work, he wondered what fool had devised this espionage plan.
Another person who saw Yuta's behavior was his teacher, and when he saw Yuta pull out an unknown weapon, he immediately wanted to stop him from doing something stupid, but he couldn't react fast enough. He was only halfway through when the spectacular burst of light took place.
Ibiki sighed with relief as a small piece of paper came out from under the crude camera. Fortunately what Yuta was holding was not a killing weapon, he thought, and made a mental note not to talk so much about Tsunade in front of this boy.
