Chapter 1: Video editing system
A soft cough echoed as a frail teenager sat in a cramped rental room, diligently working on his video editing. Despite his illness, he dared not go to the hospital. The bills were too high, and now he was beginning to feel overwhelmed by his health. Had he made the wrong decisions in life?
Pushing his worries aside, he opened his editing software, checking the metrics for the latest video he'd uploaded. A sigh escaped him. "If my numbers remain this bleak next month, I'll need to reconsider my career choice."
Chu Ge is a freelance video editor, posting his works online in hopes of commissions. With the rapid evolution of the internet, fewer people were watching his anime edits, making his already precarious financial situation even grimmer.
Lost in thought, Chu Ge was jolted from his reverie as his screen's brightness surged. The intense light was unlike anything he'd ever seen, and soon, darkness claimed him. Awakening, he found himself surrounded by a void. "Where am I?" he wondered aloud, trying to recall how he'd come to be in this place. Yet, the darkness offered no answers. "Am I...dead?"
Suddenly, an automated voice announced, "[Congratulations! You are now bound to the Super Comics Video Editing System.] [Host: Chu Ge.] [This system connects to various dimensions, forcing anime characters to view your edited videos. The greater their reactions, the higher your rewards.]"
So, he wasn't dead. With this new system, his edits would be viewed by every anime character. The idea exhilarated him. As a passionate fan, Chu Ge had left a mundane job to pursue his love for anime editing, although it hadn't proven lucrative. Now, he had a captive audience, potentially numbering in the millions.
A cutting-edge computer and a vast LCD screen materialized before him. Gone was his old second-hand setup. Eagerly, he began scouring the system's database for his favorite animes.
Chu Ge poured his heart and soul into his work. After three days of tireless effort, his first video was ready. The cover featured Konoha's Might Guy, enveloped in red steam, squaring off against the formidable Uchiha Madara.
Using the system's enhancements, the battles would be showcased in a jaw-dropping 360-degree three-dimensional view. For his first video, he chose the clash between Might Guy's Eighth Gate and Uchiha Madara, one of the most epic encounters in the Naruto series.
After some contemplation, he titled his video, "[Top 10 Fierce Battles in Zhutian Comprehensive Manga]." Confident in his creation, Chu Ge released the video through the system.
In the Dragon Ball universe, as Goku and the others prepared to confront Frieza, an unfamiliar voice resonated through the air. Everyone, including Frieza, looked up to see an LCD screen materializing.
"What is this nonsense?" Frieza sneered, launching an energy blast at the screen. To his astonishment, the screen remained undamaged.
As the video's title was announced, Gohan exclaimed, "Dad, the screen's talking!"
Across multiple universes, from the Spirit World of "Bleach" to the ninja villages of "Naruto", the same video played, causing excitement, apprehension, and confusion.
In the world of Naruto, as characters prepared for the Chunin exams, many were shocked by the video's content, especially seeing Might Guy's powerful transformation. The entire village was buzzing with questions and comments.
Orochimaru, in his laboratory, and the other ninjas prepping for the Chunin exams, too, witnessed the video's content. As the spotlight shone on the footage, the video began to play, capturing the undivided attention of countless beings across various dimensions.
