Unlike when Emi went to Konoha at high speed, because she was a jonin ninja who specialized in speed and carried important information to the village, she still needed 3 days for the journey, but the coming Senju entourage couldn't repeat the same speed as her and the time it took them to leave Konoha until they arrived in the Uzumaki land, even though they tried to come as fast as possible, was still 5 days.
When they arrived in the Uzumaki land, the first thing they did was to identify themselves to the gatekeepers, which didn't cause too much of a problem because they were Senju, a clan that had been friends with the Uzumaki for generations.
But when they arrived at the Uzumaki village, they were confused by how different it was from their last visit.
The biggest difference was the number of tourists in the village!
It was easy to tell who was a tourist and who wasn't because of the difference in hair color.
Usually, there were only red-haired people in the village, who were the Uzumaki, but now, there were many different hair colors in the village.
"What's going on? Why is the town so full of tourists?" A Senju ninja asked confused as he looked around.
With a proud smile, the Uzumaki guard who accompanied them explained. "Ever since Daimyo Alex started selling cell phones in Kazumachi City, our two cities have been exchanging tourists all the time. They experience our culture and food at the oasis, and we experience theirs, and then the citizens of the two cities visit each other's city to experience things for themselves."
Hearing this, Tsunade and the Senju ninjas were surprised.
"Can you tell me more about Daimyo Alex?" Tsunade asked curiously.
If someone else had asked, the Uzumaki ninja might not have answered, but since she was the Senju princess, granddaughter of Lady Mito Uzumaki, it might not have hurt so much, so he explained.
"Daimyo Alex is a young man of your age, Lady Tsunade, but his intelligence and technology are on a level we can't even imagine. His inventions are things our imagination cannot even fathom and he already uses them as if they were the simplest things in the world, both the cell phone with its many functions and even his carriage that can move on its own without a horse pulling it!" The guard explained with stars in his eyes.
It was clear that this ninja had become a fan of Alex's, which was surprising to the Senju, since they knew that for a ninja to admire someone, that person had to be really much better than they were, so much so that usually only a small number of people in a village achieved such fame after years of contribution.
For Daimyo Alex, who had arrived in the land of the Uzumaki only a few days before and had already made ninjas admire him in this way, what magic did this Alex have?
As they walked, the Senju were surprised by the behavior of the people.
Especially when they saw that many people were buying things and leaving without paying.
"Why do people leave without paying?" A ninja woman asked confusedly, pointing at a tourist who was leaving with a large bag of gifts, but she didn't see this person pay.
Laughing a little, the guard explained. "They don't leave without paying, it's just that since the trip from Kazumachi Town to Uzumaki Village is tiring, instead of bringing bags of money to buy things, we make payments via cell phone. You can deposit your money on your cell phone and transfer the money on your cell phone to someone else who has a cell phone, so you don't have to carry around big bags of money when you go on a trip.
When the senju heard this, they were shocked because this thing was so practical!
Many of them had brought several thousand ryo for the trip because they didn't know how long they would be here and how much they would spend, which was rather inconvenient.
But if they could just walk around with their cell phones and pay for everything there, wouldn't it be much easier?
They could even leave some of the money in Konoha with their family and ask them to transfer it from there to wherever they were, making it even safer!
Even though they hadn't seen a cell phone in Konoha yet, Tsunade had already explained everything she knew, which wasn't much, but it was everything Emi had explained to her.
It all seemed very magical and confusing to her, but since it was a village mission, she did her best.
"Can we go buy a cell phone? I'm very curious to see what it's like." Tsunade asked.
"Sure. You see that big, well-lit store with lots of people going in and out? That's Daimyo Alex's shop that sells cell phones." The guard explained as he pointed.
Looking at the large, luxurious store, the Senju ninja were surprised and worried about the price.
"How much is that cell phone worth?" Tsunade asked worriedly.
"Only 20,000 ryo." The guard explained, waiting for their surprised reaction, and he was right, when they heard that price, the Senju ninja were shocked that it was so cheap.
For such a magical and useful device, they thought it would cost at least 200,000 ryo, but since it was only 20,000, they were afraid that the guard was lying to them.
That was human nature, if something was that cheap, they might be suspicious of the quality, but the guard didn't bother to explain and led them into the shop.
The store, which had been rather empty before because all the Uzumaki already had cell phones, filled up again when people from Kazumachi City started coming to Uzumaki Village for tourism, bringing family members who didn't have cell phones yet and taking the opportunity to buy them here since the line at the store was much shorter than in Kazumachi City where everyone was still trying to get a cell phone.
Even though a few days had passed, there were still thousands of people without cell phones waiting in line to buy them.
When they arrived at the store, the Senju were shocked to see Mia and Mio explaining the functions of the phones to the people.
They were surprised both by the functions they were explaining and by the way they could see Mio and Mia on the screen and couldn't feel them.
When they explained the screens and how they worked, they understood that they weren't there!
After 30 minutes of explanations, all 20 Senju who had come to the Uzumaki village had bought a cell phone and were enjoying exploring the functions of the cell phone and the Oasis while having fun learning about this fun new technology.
However, they forgot that two ninjas from Konoha were waiting for them and that Hiruzen was trying to find out the result of a negotiation he had with Kaito.
Tsunade even forgot to tell Emi to contact Hiruzen while she explored the sights the oasis had to offer.
Luckily for her, there were no casinos and gacha games in the world of the Oasis yet, because the way she liked to play, Tsunade would go crazy with the more developed games of the modern world.
