Culture shock

After a day of culture shock from another world, everyone in Konoha was left feeling dazed...

What happened today? What did I see? What did I do? These were the soul-searching questions everyone asked themselves after returning home...

With two Konoha celebrities, Madara and Hashirama, leading the way, and the music setting the mood, Konoha had turned into one enormous dance party that day...

"Whew! How was the dancing today, everyone?" Holding the microphone Brother Roku had developed, Dave walked onto the stage and called out to all the Villagers gathered around.

"..." The Villagers stood there in a daze... They couldn't believe what they had done today... And... that kid up there looked only five or six years old. How was his voice so loud?

"You Villagers have been dancing all day. I know you might feel a little embarrassed. But let me ask you: did you have fun? You danced your hearts out and let go of all your unhappiness and worries. All that stress vanished with every step you took, didn't it?" Dave asked the crowd from the stage.

All the Villagers nodded. It was admittedly a little embarrassing, but it didn't really feel like a big deal. Everyone around them had been dancing too; it wasn't as though they'd been dancing alone. What was there to be embarrassed about...? Besides, it was true. After dancing all day, they seemed to have forgotten all their worries...

That was how people were sometimes. Doing something alone could feel awkward, but when everyone did it with you, it no longer felt that way.

"Hahaha, as long as you had fun today! Don't worry about whether it was embarrassing. Look, the First Hokage and Lord Madara danced in front of everyone today, and they weren't embarrassed, were they?" Dave continued.

The Villagers laughed... That was right. There really wasn't anything to be embarrassed about. Even the First Hokage had led them in dancing.

"Now, I have an announcement for everyone. From now on, every day from four in the afternoon until dusk, the Uchiha Girl Group will lead everyone in dancing here. Anyone who wants to relieve some stress can come along. Of course, you can also offer them a little material support. After all, the young ladies of the Uchiha Clan need to eat too, right? Also, all those great songs you heard today will be available to download at the counter of the Love Kidney Phone specialty store. Then you'll be able to sing, dance, and listen to music at home whenever you like. There are five songs in total, at ten Tael each." Dave finally revealed his real purpose for the day...

"Some of you might be wondering: what's a Love Kidney Phone? Let me explain. A phone is what I'm holding right here. Each phone has a SIM card inserted into it, with an eleven-digit number, and..." Dave then gave the villagers a detailed explanation of what a phone was.

Below the stage.

"Whew... Tobirama, Dave really has a head for business. He even came up with a promotional method like this." Utterly exhausted, Hashirama sat limply on the ground and spoke to Tobirama beside him.

"Hmph. That bastard next to him must have taught him. And look at the state of you today! Aren't you embarrassed?" Tobirama snorted. He was one of the few people in the Village who had kept his wits about him and hadn't joined Hashirama and Madara in dancing.

"Hahaha, Tobirama, don't be so serious. Besides, the Village has still felt a little stifled over these past few years since its founding. Dave's idea is pretty good. You saw it yourself—the Villagers are happy." Looking at the smiles on the Villagers' faces, Hashirama felt deeply gratified.

"Hashirama, I won this time." Madara Uchiha, who was also panting nearby, spoke up.

"Hey, Madara, how did you win? I clearly danced better than you!" Hashirama protested.

"Oh? Looks like you're still not convinced. Want another battle with me?" Madara sneered. Apparently, Hashirama still refused to admit defeat.

"Another what?" Hashirama froze for a moment. What did that mean?

"Oh, that kid Dave came up with it. It means a dance-off. I think it rolls off the tongue pretty well," Madara replied.

"..."

Only after the villagers understood what the Love Kidney Phone was, along with everything else, did the day's event come to a successful close.

Back at the compound.

"Uncle Madara, thank you, and those young ladies too," Dave said to Uncle Madara with a smile.

"It's fine. I enjoyed it. Also, you said you could put those songs on this phone?" Madara waved a hand and asked coolly.

"Got it! Come find me at the shop early tomorrow, Uncle Madara, and I'll download the music for you! As for those young ladies, the Uchiha Girl Group we discussed before is officially up and running. From now on, they'll be the Uchiha Girl Group. Each song will sell for ten Tael, and five Tael will go to them." Dave immediately nodded respectfully.

"Hmm, that works." The Uchiha Clan didn't particularly care about the money from song sales, but the clan's money belonged to the clan. It would be good if its members could earn some money of their own too. Besides, Dave wasn't asking for much—a fifty-fifty split. What a good kid.

And as the day's events spread by word of mouth, the Villagers' view of the Uchiha Clan had changed. All you had to do now was stop someone on the street and ask.

"Sir, what do you think of the Uchiha Clan?"

"You mean the Uchiha Clan with those young ladies with the pale legs? They're great! Those girls sing beautifully, dance beautifully, and their legs are so fair. Their breasts... ahem, ahem. I think we've all misjudged the Uchiha Clan. The Uchiha Clan Head is so handsome, and he dances so well. They're great. I was wrong about the Uchiha Clan before."

On the way back earlier, Madara Uchiha had casually transformed into someone else and asked a passerby that question. Hmm, looks like this Uchiha Girl Group really can work. Hmm, we should have a boy group too.

“Kid, do you have any plans for an Uchiha Boy Group?” Madara asked next.

“...A boy group... let's hold off for now... The Uchiha Girl Group has only just started, and the Villagers might not be used to it yet. We can wait until they've adjusted.” Dave wiped the cold sweat from his face. Uncle Madara still hadn't forgotten about taking center position in the boy group...

“Well, Uncle Madara, if you want to dance too, I think you could join the girl group, just like today. Let them be your backup dancers, with you leading them from center stage. Once the time is right, you can choose a few handsome clan members to form the Uchiha Boy Group,” Dave continued.

“Hmm, that works too.” Madara thought it over and nodded.

As far as Dave was concerned, he could pick just about any few girls for the girl group. But he absolutely couldn't throw a boy group together carelessly. At the very least, he had to wait for Kagami, Shisui, Itachi, Obito, Sasuke, and the like. That was what Dave and the goofy netizens from his previous life had all been hoping for...
