This chapter contains a lot of nonsense

[Ding! The super-large trailer will start playing in ten minutes! Stay tuned!]
Jiraiya's excuse left Minato a little depressed…
But that was Jiraiya after all.
Still, what about you, Kakashi? Your disciple beat up my son?
[Namikaze Minato: ??? What do you mean? Your teacher's son got beaten up, and you're still defending your own student?]
[Hatake Kakashi: …Your son is also my disciple…]
[Namikaze Minato: ??? Good fellow, so protective of your other disciples?]
[Hatake Kakashi: …They're still good friends.]
[Namikaze Minato: ??? My "good friend" stabbed me in the chest with a Chidori? Come on then, take my Rasengan head-on and see what happens!]
[Hatake Kakashi: …Teacher, this isn't good. It's not appropriate!]
[Uchiha Obito: Die of laughter!]
[Namikaze Minato: Laugh, laugh, laugh—what a joke! Don't think that just because you died earlier than me, you can reincarnate as someone older than me!]
[Uchiha Obito: …]
[Namikaze Minato: No one is worry-free!]
[Nohara Rin: Um… I think I'm pretty easy to deal with…]
[Namikaze Minato: (Silence) Hmm… barely!]
[Nohara Rin: ??? Why?!]
[Namikaze Minato: !!! Nonsense! It was just a broken Three-Tails. If you had returned, I could've helped you suppress it in a minute. Why did you still have to die? Stupid!]
[Sarutobi Hiruzen: …Teacher Second Hokage, why do I feel like the Fourth's ability to taunt people has gotten stronger since he met you?]
[Senju Tobirama: What do you mean? You want me to take the blame?]
[Sarutobi Hiruzen: Minato used to be so gentle… Look at him now…]
[Yin Kurama: I won't tell you… because I've been scolding him the whole time…]
[Senju Hashirama: So, arguing with the Nine-Tails can make you better at talking? Let me try! Nine-Tails??]
[Yin Kurama: …No, you can't handle it. You slapped me once and sealed me because you said I was "too dangerous"!]
[Senju Tobirama: Back then… you Tailed Beasts really suffered.]
[Tailed Beasts: I'm glad you know! One of his clones once asked me, "Are you a Tailed Beast?" I said yes, and he slapped me to the ground and said, "Mission accomplished!"]
[Senju Tobirama: …That's a bit excessive.]
[Senju Hashirama: Eh, is that excessive? Didn't you tell me to be quick and decisive?]
[Senju Tobirama: ...]
Just a short round of Q&A—or rather a live broadcast, full of banter—with a clip of the Shinigami's belly being ripped open inserted in between…
It completely overturned the ninja world's understanding of the Heaven System.
Especially the shop items… Resurrection costing one billion gold coins.
Wood Release like Hashirama's, the Sage Body technique…
And yet the price was even more expensive than resurrection itself.
The entire ninja world was shocked.
Items were classified into experience cards and permanent items.
For example, a single-tomoe Sharingan cost 100,000 gold coins, a two-tomoe cost 1 million, and a three-tomoe cost 10 million!
Mangekyō cost 100 million???
Not to mention the Eternal Mangekyō. Its price was marked unknown, but it was definitely not cheap.
And most people didn't even know how the Eternal evolved.
Even if they did, where would you find a pair of eyes related by blood?
Not to mention the risk of failure. In all these years, aside from the Ōtsutsuki clan…
Only Uchiha Madara had ever reached that level. Not even Obito had.
Of course, this didn't include future surprises.
Ninjutsu was classified even more bizarrely.
For example, the Flying Thunder God that Tsunade got wasn't the technique itself, but the training method.
And that method… was already in Konoha!
So, what was the point?
…800,000 gold coins for something already in the village? What the hell was this system trying to do?
One-time experience cards were basically for instant mastery—like Tsukuyomi.
In fact, ninjutsu was just like reality. Some people were suited for it, some weren't. That's why exchanging 800,000 coins for the training method made sense.
Not everyone could even use Fire Style or Water Style. Most people only had one chakra nature.
Forget about space-time ninjutsu like Flying Thunder God. In the future, it took three shinobi working together to teleport Mei Terumi onto the battlefield against Madara!
Three people to move one person. Meanwhile, Minato dribbled people across oceans with one hand and came back laughing.
Even Tobirama admitted Minato's Flying Thunder God was faster than his own.
Multiple Shadow Clones required massive chakra reserves! Without enough, you'd be drained instantly.
So far, the best item anyone had gotten was Kakashi's Uzumaki physique.
A body worth a million coins… if trained properly, his chakra could multiply more than a dozen times!
…
The Akatsuki panicked. They had to answer the questions. If they didn't, they'd be destroyed in the future. After all, they were all traitors.
Uchiha Madara was both panicked and excited. If the enemy gained more coins, how could his Eye of the Moon Plan succeed? What if someone bought an item equal to the Rinnegan?
Obito stared at the tailed beasts' chakra in shop with deep thought.
I will become the second Sage of Six Paths.
Meanwhile, the other hidden villages—including Sunagakure—were already scheming to steal Konoha's forbidden techniques.
Even though Suna was technically an ally, Konoha's foundation was far too strong.
Sasuke and Naruto were long forgotten in their eyes.
No matter how strong, they were just two people. How could they compare to 153 forbidden techniques? Free, no less!
But they didn't realize those two kids they dismissed would one day become the final big bosses.
A day later, the villages urgently recalled their ninjas…
"Konoha is too terrifying! Retreat now!"
[Ding! Main story live broadcast begins! The Fourth Ninja World War! The battle begins!]
[Uchiha Obito: What the hell?!]
[Hatake Kakashi: What's wrong, Obito?]
[Nohara Rin: It's war again…]
Obito stayed silent at her words, then gritted his teeth and answered Kakashi.
[Uchiha Obito: It's fine…]
[Senju Hashirama: As expected, war is unavoidable in any era…]
[Senju Tobirama: ...]
Hashirama always advocated peace, yes. But even he wanted unification.
It shouldn't have been Kurama wrapped in Susanoo… it should've been Susanoo wrapped in the Great Buddha.
Tobirama, on the other hand, had ambitions… but he was a brother con.
And that's why the Senju and Uchiha would never understand each other.
Both sides were just brother-cons… each controlling the other.
