Uzumaki Death God: Do I have no shame? Big brother, save me!
Ohnoki: Dammit, not another world-punishment quiz.
Fourth Raikage Darui: A maid dress punishment again? Hah, I laugh in the face of shame!
Hashirama Senju: Maid dress? What's going on?
Tobirama Senju: Brother, compose yourself. You just appeared. Make a proper first impression.
Hiruzen Sarutobi: Ahem, First Hokage, the Second is right. Try to be more dignified.
Jiraiya: Welcome, elders!
Tsunade: Grandfather! Second Grandfather! Third Grandfather!
Hashirama Senju: Huh? Why have I been summoned here?
In the corner, Madara Uchiha began to tremble. He hadn't expected the Senju progenitor to appear so soon.
Kushina Uzumaki: Hey, where's my husband?
Minato Namikaze: Here, my dear wife.
Kushina Uzumaki: Spare me the sweet talk. Why did you ignore my messages?
Minato Namikaze: When? I was playing mahjong with the four Hokage inside the Death God's belly... I didn't hear anything.
Kushina Uzumaki: Really? No mistress involved?
Minato Namikaze: Mistress?
Their marital spat had everyone completely distracted from the ongoing quiz.
System: Response window closing. Moving to random draw selection.
Ohnoki: What? Random draw too?
Fourth Raikage Darui: I trust my luck. It won't betray me.
Mizukage Mei Terumi: Luck? You? I doubt you'll survive.
Rasa: Still showing off, Raikage?
Mizukage Mei Terumi: I'm the Fifth Mizukage. At least I wasn't beaten by Orochimaru.
Ohnoki: Third Mizukage here. Rumors say you were too.
Fourth Raikage Darui: Hmph. Rasa, call yourself "Rasa the Greatest" next time.
Minato Namikaze: Better title "World's Number One Rasa."
Fourth Raikage Darui: Brilliant as always, Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze: Haha. But world third will do too.
Rasa: Wait, First Raikage died earliest. I should outrank you!
Minato Namikaze: We're ranking by brilliance, not death order.
System: Randomly selecting a lucky respondent…Congratulations: Hashirama Senju. Please answer now.
Everyone froze.
"Answer?"
Tsunade: Look up, Grandpa. The red prompt is asking how long the Death God took to change his mind.
Tobirama Senju: Thought change? What thought?
Hashirama Senju: Uh... am I doing this right?
He hesitantly pressed C.
System: Judging Hashirama Senju's answer (C)...Correct!
Hashirama Senju: Shiki Fuujin Jutsu? What's that?
Tobirama Senju: That's the sealing jutsu used on us back during the invasion.
Hashirama Senju: What a crude technique. My Divine Wood Palm is stronger.
Uzumaki Death God: That's offensive, you know.
Hiruzen Sarutobi: ...
Tsunade: Actually, it hasn't been long. Just a few months since Orochimaru's invasion of the Leaf.
Tobirama Senju: What?
System: Resuming "Forbidden Techniques Masters' Daily Life" stream...
Somewhere far away, Orochimaru burst into maniacal laughter.
Orochimaru: They came back that easily? If I'd known, I would've used Edo Tensei much sooner!
Tobirama Senju: That name sounds majestic. I must've been a genius.
Hashirama Senju: Solo missions would've been a breeze. I'd just let a Wood Clone handle everything while I napped.
