Travelling My Favorite Worlds - Chapter 52 Side Story Holiday Special
(A/N: Sorry if anyone is sad since this isn’t really a plot heavy chapter, but well, I hope that it will help with some character development in lieu of plot progression. Also, this takes place in the Naruto world before he made Itachi Hokage and before he left, however it was after he began development of his dimension.)
‘Informing host, the previous query of when your worlds holidays would line up has been analyzed, from now on system should be able to calculate for this holiday no matter the world. Calculated timing for Holiday to be optimal in this world will be in 1 month, 1 week, and a single day.’
Ah, wow I started that last year when I felt it was around Christmas time. So this is for Christmas right?
‘Affirmative, however there are a multitude of Holidays around this time therefore system shall defer to it as such.’
Okay, well this year I am going to teach everyone Christmas joy, cheer, and whatnot. Hm, I should act as Santa Clause and go visit everyone? No, I don’t really want to get stabbed. Okay, how can I ninjafy this Holiday? Well, I can go around and show everyone some of the popular foods to cook, like Ham, Turkey, Pies, and well just whatever, I mean I have a shit ton of recipes in my inventory. Actually I have a lot of books period, maybe I should make a library in that new world, no that’s not important right now.
Food is easy, everyone loves food, liquor is easy too. Convincing people about presents shouldn’t be too hard either actually and I can demonstrate by giving everyone I know a present. Hm, I wish Olivier was here so I could give everyone that Jewelry I commissioned years ago, but well I just need a good moment. Okay, well who says I need to make Christmas anyway?
We could just use it as a time of Joy, cheer, and togetherness I guess. Enjoy what we have and what not. So basically thanksgiving combined with Christmas! All the good and none of the genocide or religious undertones! Yeah, I think it will be fun just doing that actually.
So for the next month I started spreading the word, not just to the villages and lands under our (okay, my control) but to the others as well. I wanted to make this a worldwide celebration! I even have a team of ninja ready to go and transport people around using the Thunder God technique so that not only can people come here, but so that they can go visit other lands. Hm, actually this may not be a bad service to go and make during normal times as well to make it even faster, or at least make it emergency transportation for people.
Wait, got on a tangent. Anyways, it has been snowing for the past few weeks and with the help of some of those with ice release we even have a large area dedicated to making snow sculptures. I even participated, I made the Neo Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon for mine. Thankfully I had spread various Anime’s around before, so some people actually got the reference. However I didn’t win, it was Kakashi and his little sister who decided to go and make a fucking Dragon from Skyrim. I don’t even know how those bastards managed to do it, but god damn.
Actually, I didn’t even get 2nd or 3rd place, I got 4th. The second place was Itachi and Sasuke who made a gundam, and then the third place was actually a sculpture of me done by Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Naruto, and Minato. I would have been much more upset if it wasn’t for the fact that it actually looked badass whereas all that I did was go and make a copy of basically a dick joke. I wonder if there is some way for me to preserve these statues actually, hm. Well I’ll ask those with ice release later.
So we did a lot of events like that, I even started, on accident, a tradition where each company would reveal a brand new announcement for their most ambitious project coming out next year. I mean, most would go and keep a lot secret, but man there were some pretty cool ads. Like Itachi has his own Company that he made called the holy trio (It’s him, Sasuke, and Shisui). I was surprised that they all made a company together too, but oh well) and apparently they are going to be making their own version of elder scrolls online, except, well, fucking good. Okay I know it’s vague, but well they read the books pretty closely apparently and understand the lore so they are going to completely make the map by hand(which is ambitious in it’s own right), all content from each game will be present, well at least from 3 to 5 it will have all content. No clue how they’ll do it with how many choices and quests there are, especially with the different times they take place in, but hey whatever. They are even going and getting an absolute shit ton of voice actors (I get to be the leader of the thieves guild since they thought it was most fitting for me as leader of the shinobi.)
Wait, losing track again. Okay, I also made a thing, since we have such a surplus of funds that I literally have been trying to spend for the leaf, we will have everyone get a full meal! The leaf will cover everyone’s meal, the chefs payment, and all that fun stuff. That way everyone can enjoy themselves! Now that doesn’t mean that there won’t be stalls up though, I mean it’s not a festival without stalls after all. Hm, what else is there, oh yeah! For all the kids who can’t afford presents and those who can, I have been acting as Santa for everyone under 18 (though there are some people I know over 20 who will get some presents that will help them out in life.).
Man, I sat down in a chair for 2 days listening to all of these kids, but I listened to every single one of their requests and had various people write it down, I have about a week to get everything together, and I want to make this kids happy. Now, I had them write down what they wanted, but I also made sure to have those writing by the kids name what their personalities were like, so if they were spoiled then I would get them a rather simple present, but if they were good kids that would go and do nice things for others or if they really needed help from me then I would make sure they got something amazing.
It was actually really weird having Kakashi’s siblings on my lap since I’ve been such a big part of their lives, especially Shiro. She was blushing pretty much the whole time that she was on my lap and eventually managed to ask me for a new game console and a game that was out on it. She then turned into a Tomato and, I know it wasn’t her fault but I still feel the pain, used my crotch as a launchpad to get off my lap. Poor Santa couldn’t have any kids on his lap (holy shit that sounds way worse than I thought it would) for a few minutes (now is when I bring out the white van to give them their candy right?).
Anyways, after that whole week I had a metric shit ton of presents to give to kids, there actually weren’t that many bratty kids thankfully, I think less than a hundred out of the thousands that I saw? I was actually surprised to find that most of the bratty kids came from the leaf on top of that and the most respectful ones actually managed to come from the other villages, especially Amegakure. I actually got scared for a bit since the Amekage tried to sit on my lap like she was a little kid… in front of my wives no less. She’s almost as old as me and she was trying to do that? Like I mean, I know having my cheat elixirs is helpful and you look like you are 20, but be a tad more mindful please?
It didn’t take long to deliver all the presents, I decided to stop by the Hatake household and drop off all the gifts, I got the system and game for Shiro, I gave the other 2 an action figure of Kurama and a figure of the third Kazekage. People apparently ended up over glorifying our fight, made it into an anime, and somehow Kurama got involved? Hell, the fight against the third Hokage had me actually knocking him out. I kind of felt disappointed in myself for not using wood style like in the anime, but well, I had to remake the techniques by myself since the first Hokage never wrote them down.
Oh, yeah, so through the rest of the night I went and delivered everything to every single kid, I even prepared a bunch of extra presents since I knew not every kid was able to come or that I would come across someone who needs help. It ended up taking me around 3 hours total, but since I needed to be up early tomorrow for the festivities every hour of sleep mattered, especially since I know how lonely Tsunade and Darkness get when I am not there at night. In fact they told me that if I want to be gone for the night then I had better take the next day off so that I can pamper them. I didn’t mind much, but man did I miss out on a lot of work, on the bright side I don’t work nights now so you know, pro’s and con’s.
On the bright side, it’s only 10 so they shouldn’t be too upset with me.
Hm? Why did I drop them off so early? Well, nobody was asleep really which is true, but I can make the toys and what not temporarily invisible so it all works out. I have it so that at 6 AM all presents will stop being invisible, not the most efficient but I mean, cuddle time is important. Not just for them, it sucks to not fall asleep while holding one of them actually, usually Tsunade since Darkness still gets flustered which is adorable in it’s own right.
After getting ready the next day everyone celebrated in the morning, I gave Tsunade and Darkness some presents I made myself, for Tsunade since she likes to tie her hair up in a ponytail I gave her a set of a scrunchies and, to go along with her gift from her grandfather, a little stick that is almost identical, but it actually has my formula for the flying thunder god. So yeah, I put a triforce on it. Darkness, well I gave her something wholes, a necklace made out of pearls that were white, orange, and red that I found when I went diving underwater one time, she immediately started blushing and made it into something sexual. Man this girl. After giving her a chop to the head and getting both of their presents put on (I gave the rest of my summons other presents and got Olivier a new present as well) they both gave me their presents. Tsunade gave me a new headband, but instead of the leaf symbol there was the tri-force (A/N: Okay, the triforce thing was just something random, but you know what, the more I write it in the story, the more I dig it. I don’t know about you guys, but for those that don’t like it, well I’m not going to make it the main point or feature of the story. I mean like, it’s just a symbol that, in my mind, shows you a path forward in more vague terms. Yeah this can be all philosophical but I enjoy writing it as such.).
It was even gold plated which I loved a lot, a gift I didn’t enjoy was the one from Darkness. I just left the room with everyone but her since she was demonstrating it. I won’t say what it was, but know it was something to do with BDSM and has the word wooden in it. Let your minds drift on their own for I will not be the captain of that boat. Thankfully, everyone else gave me some pretty neat gifts, Garrus actually gave me a gun like the one from the first mass effect, but since we are in a fantasy world he actually managed to find out how to go and eliminate the overheating. Ezio apparently was working with a blacksmith to make me my own hidden blade that was exactly like his from Revelations, Alucard, well I made him a new gun and he was planning on giving me his old gun so it worked out.
Esdeath, well she made me a small statue of everyone together out of permanent ice (or so she says is permanent.) which made me laugh since I actually went and gave her a scarf. Mostly as a pun, but since, well she still has her blue hair, and I made a scarf that I felt matched her hair color well, and I even added some little flecks of white onto it to make it even better.
Hm? What’d I get Garrus? Well, uh, I didn’t really know what to get him honestly. I give the man whatever he needs for research anyway, any gun that I could make or try to make for him would just be disappointing to him so I ended up just going and giving him a set of hitchhikers guide to the galaxy books since I figured he’d find them funny. I know, I feel bad for not making his gift personally, but literally everyone else was easier to do! Even Ezio! I gave him a bunch of Origami (and a book on how to do it, I mean I have to help him even more with his pick-up game, make him a force to be reckoned with)!
After dealing with that I went through the whole day seeing everyone have fun with everything, well those that got games or books I didn’t see till much much later actually since they were so busy with them, but everyone managed to go and smile and enjoy themselves. I definitely want to go and make this a yearly event! Man, I wonder how much fun it would be to go and involve a bunch of worlds in it too, that would be interesting, like if spiderman went and met, I don’t know, who’s an anime character I haven’t met yet. Ah, Gintoki (from gintama)! That would be pretty neat honestly.
Even more of a reason to get on making this place I guess.
(A/N: Happy holidays everyone! And to everyone not celebrating, well I hope you have a good day and that everyone is treating you well! Thanks everyone for reading my story and, well, lets hope for another year so that we can have another Holiday special! Well unless I somehow screw up, make everyone drop the novel and then I end up dropping it! Well, I don’t that will happen, knock on wood, so I hope we all keep having fun for the next year!)
