Tobirama's harvest of points was actually this substantial as well.
This left the other Hokages feeling somewhat incredulous.
However, after being tempered by Aoki's exaggerated numbers, everyone was more or less able to accept the quantity Tobirama had obtained.
The others all cast envious glances at Tobirama, especially the two Tsunades.
"If I had this many points," they said simultaneously, "I could place bets in the mall who knows how many times! Just thinking about it feels amazing!"
Hashirama Senju also looked at Tobirama with anticipation. "Brother, you actually have this many points! How about letting your old brother use some?"
In response to Hashirama's words, Tobirama could only pretend not to hear. If his unreliable older brother were to really let loose, who knew when he'd ever get the points back? Calling it a "loan" was practically a guarantee of no return.
Amid the clamor of the many Hokages, the Chat Group prompt sounded once again.
[Reward for second place!]
[Reward: 30,000 points!]
The second place also directly received a reward of 30,000 points. Although not as exaggerated as first place, Tobirama was quite satisfied with such a reward. After all, before crossing over to the Pirate World for the mission, he only had a few thousand points on him. These 30,000 points were already very good!
Moreover, Tobirama was quite different from the others. He had recorded many special things in his scrolls, all unique to the Pirate World, most of which were items very worthy of research. Although these wouldn't be converted into points, they could provide a lot of help in his Ninjutsu research, offering at least many inspirations. In fact, Tobirama had already conceived the prototypes of several new forbidden techniques!
Therefore, Tobirama believed that his gains this time were much greater than they appeared on the surface.
After the second-place reward was announced, everyone remained quiet this time, silently waiting for the Chat Group's next prompt, hoping it would quickly announce the next ranking.
According to the reward rules mentioned earlier, only the top three would receive additional rewards. With the first and second places already announced, only the last spot remained! The remaining Hokages were all somewhat nervous, hoping they would be that final person.
Amid everyone's anxious waiting, a new Chat Group prompt finally sounded.
[Evaluation complete!]
[Third place: Sixth Hokage Kakashi!]
"Excellent!" Sixth Hokage Kakashi cheered triumphantly upon hearing the news. This was too important for him—not only would he receive an additional reward, but it also proved his capabilities!
In previous evaluations, his world points had never been very high, sometimes floating in the middle, sometimes even at the bottom. This situation had greatly displeased Kakashi. After all, he had been a prodigy as a ninja, but after becoming Hokage, he couldn't compare to others. Such a discrepancy left him very dissatisfied. Now, having made it into the top three, even if only third place, he felt thoroughly relieved!
"Congratulations, Kakashi!" Obito was the first to offer his blessings without hesitation.
The others, however, didn't look too pleased. Well, that settled it—if they weren't in the top three, there would be no additional rewards. Fortunately, each of the Hokages was quite open-minded. They quickly put this matter behind them and began comforting themselves.
"This journey across worlds has already been very profitable! Even without additional rewards, what we gained far exceeded our expectations."
"Exactly! I'm already very satisfied!"
"Speaking of which, the things we plundered ourselves are worth quite a few points too! No need to feel upset."
While the many Hokages were comforting each other, the Chat Group began announcing Sixth Hokage Kakashi's specific income.
[Sixth Hokage Kakashi's collection: Devil Fruits, totaling 24!]
[Total value: 180,000 points!]
[Various treasures, weapons, etc.: Total value 10,000 points!]
[Total: 190,000 points!]
Sixth Hokage Kakashi's total income of 190,000 points was also quite exaggerated, only 10,000 points less than Tobirama's. At this scale, the difference was negligible.
The reward for third place was also points.
[Reward for third place!]
[Reward: 10,000 points!]
Next, the Chat Group began announcing the incomes of the other Hokages.
[Fourth place: Former 5.5th Hokage Uchiha Sasuke]
[Fifth place: Former Third Hokage Kakashi]
[Sixth place: Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato]
[Seventh place: Fifth Hokage Tsunade]
After the Chat Group's detailed announcements, everyone was surprised to find that, in fact, those after third place had basically similar gains. Most of the Devil Fruits converted into points were those from the Celestial Tribute offerings. The main reason was Aoki.
His system of plundering Devil Fruits, built with the help of the Five Elder Stars and Doflamingo, had almost cleaned out all the Devil Fruits scattered in the Pirate World. The other Hokages, without the help of local forces and unfamiliar with the terrain, could only plunder a limited number of Devil Fruits on their own. Many of the treasures they obtained weren't worth much.
With everyone's rewards announced, this reward evaluation ranking officially concluded. All the Hokages' harvests were ranked. The remaining Hokages all earned over a hundred thousand points, with differences of only a few thousand. Therefore, no one had any objections to this ranking.
Next, the Chat Group opened a separate exchange session for each person. Everyone could choose whether to convert the Devil Fruits and treasures in their possession into points. They could choose to exchange them for points to spend in the mall or retain their gains.
Aoki thought it over and converted everything he obtained into points. Given his current strength, the plundered Devil Fruits were of little use, and he certainly didn't lack wealth. The moment he exchanged them, his point balance instantly became an exaggerated number, with zeros that would take half a day to count.
Similar to Aoki's choice, most others also chose to convert their gains into points. Only a few retained their harvests. For example, Tobirama kept the items in his scrolls as research materials for developing new Ninjutsu, so of course he didn't exchange them. The two Tsunades, tacitly, only exchanged part of their wealth, keeping the remaining gold and silver jewelry. These items would be enough for them to have fun in the Tanzaku Street for a long time!
