Naruto's Review : First Viewer is Senju Tobirama?

[Aside from the evidence in the official books, we can also make a simple reading comprehension based on the original manga.]

[This scene takes place in the memories of Kisame when Aoyama Yamashiro interrogates Kisame by delving in his mind. The memories mainly focus on two events.]

[Kisame followed the hint from Fuguki Suikazan to eliminate the Cypher Division, and then Kisame assassinated Fuguki Suikazan.]

 [The outfits in these two events are clearly different, reflecting Kisame's changes in both time and identity.]

 [Moreover, after meeting Ibiki, Kisame actively chose to follow Fuguki Suikazan's order to kill a teammate to protect intelligence, with no ambiguous romantic scenes added for the Cypher Division girl, as seen in the anime.]

[Kisame has no emotional issues or hatred towards Fuguki Suikazan.]

"What's the anime? What's the manga? What does this mean?"

Seeing the three who just revived looking confused, Kakashi immediately whispered an explanation to Sakumo.

As for Minato and Kushina, they were explained about it by Sasuke Uchiha, not Uzumaki Naruto.

"Arrogant Sasuke, what are you doing? I'll explain things clearly to Mom and Dad."

"Heh."

Sasuke looked up, sneering at Naruto, and said, "Are you sure you can explain it to Uncle and Aunt?"

"Uh, of course, I can."

"It's okay, Naruto. Let Sasuke explain it to us."

Minato gently patted Naruto's head and looked at Sasuke with a warm expression.

During the time since their revival, Minato and Kushina had mostly stayed out of village affairs and focused all their energy on Naruto, trying to make up for the lost years.

Through this time together, they had also come to understand some of Naruto's true nature.

If Naruto were to make a battle plan, perhaps he would use his beast-like instincts to bring a surprise for everyone.

But asking him to explain something—now that would be a bit difficult for him.

"Don't be sad, son. Your talent isn't in this."

"Is that so, Mom?"

"Of course! I'm your mom, and your dad and I would never lie to you."

"Mm, I understand. This time, I'll leave it to Sasuke."

"Hehe, really the obedient son of your mom!"

While Kakashi and Sasuke were explaining to the resurrection of the three-man team, the screen displayed content from the original manga.

[Looking back at the scene after Kisame has taken out Fuguki Suikazan, the Fourth Mizukage controlled by Obito immediately appeared, saying, "Good job, Kisame. One must never let their guard down with their superiors."]

[This shows that after Kisame returned to the village, he was still seen as a trusted subordinate by Fuguki Suikazan.]

[The only capable fighter under Fuguki Suikazan is Kisame, so he wouldn't betray him.]

[Looking further, when the Mizukage appeared, Kisame's hand wasn't on his sword Samehada, and he was in a neutral negotiation position. You could tell right away that there was some kind of deal between them.]

[In the anime, however, they messed it up, drawing Kisame holding the sword handle and looking wary of the Fourth Mizukage.]

[The anime treatment made it look like Kisame killed his superior and was caught in the act by the highest leader.]

[Unlike the manga, where, though there were only a few frames, it was very clear that Kisame and the Mizukage had a deal.]

[The excuse was Obito's line: "Fuguki Suikazan was secretly communicating with the enemy."]

[Ask yourself, this evil rogue ninja, Obito, who caused trouble in Kirigakure, has the nerve to accuse Fuguki Suikazan of secret dealings with the enemy. The accusation is outrageous.]

[Obito simply used this excuse to instruct Kisame to kill Fuguki Suikazan.]

"Huh? Why does Obito want to kill 'Fuguki Suikazan' and have Kisame do it?"

In the Hokage's office, after struggling to explain the issues about the anime, manga, and original books to Hashirama, Tobirama heard his older brother ask another question and immediately instructed Sarutobi Hiruzen, saying, "You explain it to my brother."

"Huh? Aren't you going to explain, Tobirama?"

"I'm afraid I'll get high blood pressure."

Hashirama looked confused, "What does that have to do with high blood pressure?"

Tobirama didn't answer but instead looked at Hiruzen and said, "Hiruzen, if you don't want to explain, I can have Danzo do it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately shivered and quickly said to Hashirama, "It's easy to understand that Obito wants to kill Fuguki Suikazan from the Mist Village."

Hiruzen's words instantly grabbed Hashirama's attention. "What do you mean?"

"You might not know this, but for certain reasons, Obito really hates the Hidden Mist Village. His goal in controlling the Fourth Mizukage is obvious—he wants to cause chaos in the Mist Village.

It's easy to understand that he wants to kill Fuguki Suikazan, who is loyal to the Mist Village, for this reason.

As for why he chose Kisame to do the killing, there are probably two reasons.

First: Kisame is a subordinate of Fuguki Suikazan, so he can easily get close to him.

Second: With this relationship, Obito can manipulate Kisame.

At that point, Obito could either recruit Kisame as a subordinate or find a reason to kill him. It's all up to him."

"Oh~ little monkey, you explained it very well, concise and powerful. If nothing unexpected happens, you'll probably be the next Hokage."

Hashirama's praise made Hiruzen very happy.

He instinctively glanced at Danzo, and, just as he expected, Danzo's face looked as dark as if he had touched charcoal.

Seeing this, Hiruzen couldn't help but smile smugly, thinking: In the "Naruto" series, I'm already the Third Hokage.

With the support of the First and Second Hokage, Danzo, how are you going to compete with me? What can you use to compete with me?

Danzo, who understood Hiruzen better than anyone, glared at him when he saw the smug expression on his face, thinking: Hiruzen, don't get too cocky. Once I've won over Lady Mito and have her help me out, I don't believe the First Hokage will not change his mind.

I also have plans for the Second Hokage. Did you really think that all the good deeds I've done recently were for nothing?

I have information on almost all the single women in the village. When the time comes, I'll introduce one to the Second Hokage. With this connection, even if the Second Hokage doesn't help me, at least he won't interfere.

As for whether the Second Hokage will accept me as a matchmaker, I have ways to handle that.

All I need to say is: "Second Hokage, you wouldn't want to be without an heir, would you?"

With the persuasion of Lady Mito and the First Hokage, the chances of success are quite high.

So, the position of the Third Hokage—who will take it—is still unknown!

Sarutobi Hiruzen, we'll see!

[Choosing Kisame only had one purpose: he has the highest chance to approach Fuguki Suikazan.]

[Then, Obito added, "You're now the owner of Samehada, and my subordinate."]

[This means that when Kisame was assigned tasks, it was promised that he would inherit Samehada once the task was completed.]

[Later, Kisame decisively responded, "Until you kill me too?"]

[This clearly suggests the two had a deal.]

[Obviously, Kisame, who gained Samehada, positioned himself as Fuguki Suikazan. It's highly suspicious. With this cooperation with the Mizukage, in the future, the Mizukage might also arrange for someone to eliminate Kisame, just like they did with Fuguki Suikazan.]

[To ease Kisame's doubts, Obito decided to personally appear and explain.]

[However, we can still see that when Kisame grips the sword's hilt in caution, it's when Obito reveals his true identity.]

[Let's just say, the animation team is impressive. With a few frames, they've changed the manga so drastically. They're probably just trying to stretch the runtime. (laughs)]
