People in the ordinary world watched the smiling young man at the end of the video with sadness.
"Did Naruto die? Do all saviors meet such an end?"
...
Many across the world fell silent.
They had witnessed how Naruto grew from a young boy into a hero who saved the world.
But must such a hero ultimately meet his demise?
In the One Punch Man world, Saitama felt a ripple in his usually calm heart upon seeing Naruto's selfless spirit in stopping Isshiki.
"This is a true hero."
One Piece world.
"Perhaps we can carry forward Naruto's spirit. Maybe this world needs true justice!"
Sengoku, deeply moved by Naruto's sacrifice for the people, wondered if the Marines could use this opportunity to reform.
"What do you think, Garp?"
Garp glanced at Sengoku and continued eating his rice crackers, refusing to answer.
Naruto world.
Leaders from various nations rushed to the Hokage's message. They had to unite to locate the Kara organization.
They were far more dangerous than the Akatsuki, for they had an Ōtsutsuki!
Naruto stared silently at his future self, saying nothing.
His friends thought he couldn't accept the blow.
"Naruto, we'll help you... even though we might end up kneeling pretty quickly..."
But the next moment, Naruto cheered excitedly.
"Yay! I became Hokage! Dad, Mom, Iruka-sensei, did you see?!"
He didn't care about the final outcome. Even if the future hadn't arrived yet, he would remain true to himself. That must have been his resolve!
Kara organization.
The inner members looked at each other. Had the Ōtsutsuki really been defeated?
"Naruto Uzumaki and the others are still young now. Maybe we should..."
"Let's wait for now. The nations are probably already taking action."
Many worlds mourned Naruto's fate, but who could say if it was truly the end?
They gained a deeper understanding of the Ōtsutsuki clan. Ninjutsu had to be used cautiously against them, and their ocular abilities were even more daunting.
"I have a feeling the next saviors won't be simple."
"I'm looking forward to the next entry, but also dreading it. Why is that?"
"Now we can only hope the next savior gets a better ending. Otherwise, I might have to send a 'special gift' to the creator of this video!"
More and more people saw Natsu and Naruto as their idols, while a few, like Rikka Takanashi, admired Lelouch—after all, his lines were incredibly impactful for people like her.
But in ordinary worlds, people were more focused on romance, such as in the Saekano world.
Eriri even drew Naruto and Hinata, weaving an entire storyline around them, hiding in her room with a (creepy) grin.
Half a day passed.
The silent screen lit up once again.
[Top Ten Saviors of the Worlds No.6]
[Digimon World: The Eight Chosen Children]
"This time the saviors are eight children?"
"How desperate must the situation be for children to become saviors?"
They didn't know where this was happening, but it must have been dire for children to be chosen as saviors.
...
In the Digimon world.
The Chosen Children were on their journey to find the Digi-Eggs.
"The Chosen Children? Is that us?" Tai exclaimed in surprise.
"But there are only seven of us. Where's the eighth?" Matt looked puzzled at the screen.
"Maybe this video will give us the answer."
As the team's strategist, Izzy analyzed the situation.
[The scene begins!]
[Eight children sit on a bus, waving out the window as if saying goodbye.]
[The bus floats in the air, while Digimon chase after it in the distance.]
[Due to abnormal data proliferation in the Digital World, the connection between the Digital World and the real world has become disordered. Strange natural phenomena have appeared on Earth, leaving scientists baffled.]
[Eight chosen children are seen as the future of the Digital World, believed to be capable of saving it.]
[This is the story of children and their Digimon saving the world...]
