Marvel: Game Maker System - Chapter 220: Hiruzen's shock

“You rushed back from the Uzumaki land to tell me some very important information?” Hiruzen asked confused.

“Yes, Lord Hokage.” Emi confirmed. “As soon as we found out how important this information is, especially for the war we’re fighting, I rushed back to tell you.”

Hiruzen nodded his head in satisfaction. “Well done, Emi, I knew I could count on you. Now tell me, what is this important news?”

Both Hiruzen Sarutobi, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were attentive to the news that was so important that Emi came running to deliver it.

Nodding her head, Emi took the cell phone out of her pocket and carefully handed it to Hiruzen.

Confused, Hiruzen took the cell phone from Emi’s hand as carefully as she showed it to him, while staring at the strange rectangular object.

Looking at it for the first time, the only thing Hiruzen could define was that it looked like an object of luxury technology, because the whole object was made of a material similar to metal, but with a very fine cut, something only a great blacksmith would be able to make.

Homura and Koharu also looked at the object in Hiruzen’s hand with curiosity and confusion.

“What is it, Emi?” Hiruzen asked.

Approaching him, Emi explained. “It’s called a cell phone. Among the dozens of functions it has, one of them is to allow two people to communicate instantly over extremely long distances.”

Hearing this, the three of them were shocked as they looked at it with even more astonishment.

“Are you sure? How far can it transmit information?” Hiruzen asked in shock.

“So far, the longest distance I’ve been able to test is from Konoha to the Uzumaki Village.” Emi explained.

With this explanation, the teams were even more shocked by the implications this could have for a war.

“Even if the other two were killed by such a device, it’s still worth it. Such a device can decide the course of a war.” Hiruzen said with a heavy voice. “Did the Uzumaki find out that you stole it?”

“Stole it?” Emi asked confused. “I didn’t steal it.”

“What do you mean?” Hiruzen was confused. “How did you get such a powerful device without stealing it?”

“I bought it.” Emi explained.

“You bought it?” Hiruzen was confused. “You had that much money to buy it?”

“Girl, are you going on missions with all your savings? As ninjas, we can’t do that… you have to be careful next time.” Utatane Koharu said, acting friendly. “If you die on the battlefield with so much money, won’t it go to our enemies?”

Emi was even more confused. Until she thought for a while and remembered how shocked she had been at how cheap cell phones were, then she understood what they were talking about.

To avoid any further misunderstandings, she decided to explain everything at once.

“They got it wrong. This cell phone actually only cost 15,000 Ryo! It was sold to everyone in Uzumaki Village for that price. Unfortunately, we could only buy one cell phone per person, otherwise we would have bought several to bring back.” Emi explained, leaving the three even more shocked than before.

“Are you sure you weren’t tricked?” Hiruzen looked suspiciously at the cell phone in his hand. “How can it cost so little if it’s so useful?”

Smiling ironically, Emi took the cell phone from Hiruzen’s hand and set it to call Ren Sarutobi.

The three of them looked at the phone in her hand suspiciously, but waited to see what would happen.

Even though they found it strange how Emi clicked on the things that lit up on the phone, they waited to see what would happen, and to their surprise, Ren’s face appeared on the phone!

“Hello Emi, have you talked to the Hokage yet?” Ren asked confused when he suddenly saw Emi calling him.

“I’m talking to him now, to show the functionality of the cell phone, I set it up to call you via video call. Can you show them that you’re in Konoha so they can see it?” Emi explained as she turned the screen so that the three of them could see it.

“Yes, I can. Hello Lord Hokage, Lord Mitokado Homura and Lady Utatane Koharu.” Ren greeted everyone as he walked through the Uzumaki village to show them some of the well-known sights.

When Hiruzen saw that Ren was in the Uzumaki village and talking to them in real time, he was completely shocked.

If every commander on the battlefield had such a cell phone, wouldn’t it be much easier to coordinate attacks and pass on information?

“Ren, can you hear me?” Hiruzen asked in confirmation.

“Yes, Lord Hokage, I hear you loud and clear.” Ren explained with a smile.

“You did very well to get this information to me as quickly as possible. The usefulness of this cell phone is extremely high, if we can buy a dozen of them, we’ll definitely have a huge advantage in the war!” Hiruzen was excited.

“That’s not the only feature, Lord Hokage, this cell phone also has the ability to put you in a genjutsu that will transport you to a completely new world where you can meet other people who are also in the genjutsu elsewhere in the world and talk to them as if you were there in person!” Emi explained excitedly.

“Emi, didn’t you show the tutorial video to the Lord Hokage?” Ren asked in confusion as he listened to Emi slowly explain every detail of the cell phone.

Hearing Ren’s question, Emi froze in embarrassment.

“I forgot…” She laughed as she opened the support application on her phone and watched the explanatory video on her phone.

Actually, she hadn’t forgotten, she just wanted to show things step by step and see the reaction of the Hokage, since she had never seen him lose his composure like he did today.

Watching the image of Mia and Mio explaining what each thing did on the cell phone, the Konoha trio was shocked at each thing they said.

As the video began to show some interesting sights of the Oasis and the Pokemon World, Hiruzen asked something he remembered.

“What about the negotiations with the Uzumaki to get a Jinchuuriki, did they accept?”

Instead of Emi answering, Ren’s voice came out of the cell phone speaker, since they were still on the phone.

“They didn’t accept, Lord Hokage, I think because of the cell phones, they are much more confident and don’t see the need to receive our favor to save one of their descendants.” Ren explained with a serious voice.

Analyzing the advantages of this cell phone, Hiruzen realized that it really could be a great strategic advantage for the Uzumaki. It was understandable that they would be more confident if they could produce such cell phones.

“But they denied any possibility of giving an Uzumaki to a Jinchuuriki?” Hiruzen asked worriedly.

“No, they just told us to prepare a better proposal for them. But the main factor is that Daimyo Alex, the creator of these cell phones, said that he likes the Uzumaki and will only consider opening a cell phone shop in Konoha if our relationship with them is good.” Ren explained in frustration.

But this was a warning to Hiruzen. If the Uzumaki didn’t make these cell phones but befriended their creator, it would be a great advantage for them.

And the thought that in the future, they could have a cell phone shop in their village where all ninjas could buy such a cell phone, made Hiruzen consider it with much more weight.

Bamp!

If Alex were here right now, he’d have dejavu with the scene of a little red-haired princess opening the door of the Uzumaki patriarch’s office and a certain blonde princess of Konoha opening the door of the Hokage’s office as if it were her home.
