Chapter 217 Analysis of Tobirama's Death

What's there to analyze about Tobirama Senju's death?

Pure Land, Golden Horn and Silver Horn smirked.

He was killed by those two brothers, that's all.

The fact that they killed him shows that Tobirama Senju was not strong enough.

The reason for killing Tobirama was because he opposed the truce between Kumogakure and Konoha.

Tobirama's death was also his own fault; from the moment he offended the Four Kage with a single sentence, his fate was sealed.

What was said on the light screen not only stunned Golden Horn and Silver Horn, but also stunned everyone else watching the light screen.

"I brought this upon myself?" Tobirama's face turned ashen.

They were hoping the light screen would help promote The Will of Fire, but instead it directly smeared him.

As expected, we shouldn't have high hopes for the light screen.

The inherently evil light curtain...

But upon calming down, could one sentence have offended all four shadows?

Then, Tobirama seemed to realize something, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Then, the Five Kage Summit appeared on the light screen. For the sake of peace in the ninja world, Hashirama decided to distribute the Tailed Beasts to balance the power of the five great ninja villages. Of course, when Hashirama was alive, Konoha was the undisputed strongest.

Hashirama's idea was to give the tailed beasts to the other ninja villages for free, but Tobirama disagreed and instead told Hashirama to sell the tailed beasts to the other ninja villages at a high price.

Konoha was already the strongest, and asking the other ninja villages to contribute a large sum of money naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the Kazekage, Tsuchikage, Mizukage, and Raikage.

I almost flipped the table.

However, the resentment towards Tobirama had already been deeply buried in the hearts of the four Kage.

In the group chat, Hashirama also sighed. He had often spoken ill of Tobirama during his lifetime, and he did not agree with some of Tobirama's ideas.

Outside the village, Tobirama's attitude towards the other ninja villages.

Within the village, Tobirama harbors malice towards the Uchiha clan.

Hashirama thought it was somewhat inappropriate.

At this point, many people in the group started discussing it.

Although Hashirama was powerful, the four Kage, including Retsuto, weren't afraid of him. After all, Hashirama was reasonable and willing to make many concessions for the sake of peace. However, Tobirama becoming Hokage made many people uneasy...

In fact, the Fourth Shinobi World War was a showcase of forbidden techniques developed by the Second Hokage: Impure World Reincarnation, Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Flying Thunder God Technique...

[The Tailed Beasts are super weapons for the ninja villages. Hashirama wanted to distribute them for free, which was ideal for the ninja villages outside of Konoha. However, Tobirama made people pay for them, and at a high price. Thus, the Second Hokage successfully offended four of the First Hokage with just one sentence.]

Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed as the light screen said.

Even before Tobirama became Hokage, he had already offended the Four Kage.

Therefore, the First Shinobi World War broke out not long after Hashirama's death.

[It can be said that Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage, was the first to break the balance. Was peaceful development what Tobirama wanted? Not at all. Otherwise, why develop the Impure World Reincarnation technique? And then there's the Flying Thunder God Technique. As long as you mark the target with the Flying Thunder God Seal, you can instantly teleport to the target's location, and this mark is difficult to remove. It's like a sharp blade hanging over everyone's heads...]

Then there's Tobirama Senju, who established the Ninja Academy, perfected the Chunin Exam system, and created the Anbu and Police Department, among other things. This strengthened Konoha's power, forcing other ninja villages to follow suit. In this situation, if Tobirama were to clamor for peace, it would be a miracle if other ninja villages believed him. Thus, war broke out.

Many people fell into thought after watching the light screen.

indeed.

According to Tobirama's plan, the longer the time dragged on, the stronger Konoha would become. When Konoha was strong enough, would Tobirama reason with the other ninja villages? Even if he didn't destroy the other ninja villages, he would inevitably make them all submit to Konoha.

In this situation, anyone, whether they are the Kazekage of Sunagakure or the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, would feel uneasy.

Therefore, killing Tobirama is the best option.

[Awei: Thinking about it carefully, Tobirama Senju wasn't very smart. He should have formed a distant alliance while attacking nearby ones, secretly developing his strength and instigating conflict between the other ninja villages.]

As Ah Wei spoke in the group, many people expressed their agreement.

Even Tobirama began to reflect, perhaps there really were problems with his actions during his lifetime!
"If he can offend all four Kage with a single sentence, what can you expect from Tobirama?" Izuna said disdainfully.

Konoha.

Jiraiya, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane were all pondering this.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that what the light screen said made sense.

In the past, it was believed that the Second Hokage made a huge contribution to Konoha, but upon closer analysis, it was also the Second Hokage who made Konoha a target of public criticism!
When the Second Hokage was alive, Konoha was developing under immense pressure.

But by the time of the Third Hokage, the pressure had lessened considerably. It was initially thought that this was due to the Third Hokage's efforts, as well as the contributions of the village's higher-ups. However, it now appears that it was because Tobirama died that Konoha's threat to the other ninja villages decreased.
"The teacher's Will of Fire is beyond question, and his contributions to the village cannot be denied." The Third Generation said solemnly, his face darkening.

Mitokado Yan and Utatane Koharu chimed in.

No matter what you think in your heart, you can't deny the Second Hokage's identity.

At the same time, Jiraiya thought about the estrangement between the village and the Uchiha clan.

The Second Hokage was inadequate in dealing with the Uchiha problem.

He had been ostracizing the Uchiha clan long before Tobirama became Hokage, and it only intensified after he became Hokage.

Gradually marginalize the Uchiha clan.

This naturally provoked dissatisfaction among the Uchiha clan.

Madara overheard Tobirama's thoughts and learned the truth beforehand. He simply decided to leave with his clan and did not intend to harm the village.

In fact, as the village's leader, the worst thing one can do is act on emotion.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Madara, wielding the Rinnegan, pinned Tobirama to the ground with black rods and walked step by step toward Tobirama in his Edo Tensei form.

Looking down at Tobirama, Madara said coldly, "To be honest, I've wanted to do this to you for a long time, although venting my anger on a walking corpse won't help."

In the Pure Land, Ban sneered, revealing his true feelings on the light screen.

Hashirama sighed. He had said that the Uchiha clan also longed for peace, but his brother's prejudice against the Uchiha clan was too deep.

Hashirama was not entirely unaware of his younger brother's thoughts.

To paraphrase Tobirama, where is true peace? Wherever there are people, there will be conflict; it's unavoidable.

At this point, some people in the group said that Tobirama was too cramped.

Just as Hashirama was considering whether to say a few words in support of his younger brother, Tobirama, who was also in the group chat, refuted him.

[Tobirama: I chose Uchiha Kagami as my personal guard, it's not as narrow-minded as you think.]

Madara sneered: "You really have a good plan. Putting the Uchiha, who have grown stronger in battle, in charge of the police department. It's both making the Uchiha offend people and subtly weakening the Uchiha's overall strength."

[Awei: To be honest, if the Uchiha clan hadn't been suppressed and ostracized generation after generation, and hadn't always had a smooth life, their strength might not be as great as it is now.]

Ah Wei is not defending Tobirama, but making a rational analysis.

A large portion of the Uchiha clan's power comes from the Sharingan.

The activation and upgrading of the Sharingan require intense emotional fluctuations.

While more stimulation can easily lead to extremes, it also makes it easier to awaken and upgrade the Sharingan.

The next moment, the Third Hokage and Danzo refuted Awei's statement together.

Danzo, in particular, seemed even angrier than the Third Hokage.

[Awei: Danzo, stop pretending. Back then, when Tobirama Senju chose Hiruzen Sarutobi as Hokage, you must have had your own grievances against him! Now you're acting like a good disciple who's protecting your teacher?]
Danzo: ...

The live stream on the screen continued.

The light curtain only briefly mentioned that Tobirama was willing to act as bait on the battlefield to protect the next generation.

Due to preconceived notions, not to mention everyone, many viewers of the light screen felt that Tobirama's death was not unjust.

At that moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi mentioned the Second Raikage in the group chat.

According to the light curtain, the second generation had already offended the four Kage.

If the Second Raikage wasn't genuinely interested in making peace with the Second Raikage, why did Kinkaku and Ginkaku kill him?
If it were the Second Raikage plus Kinkaku and Ginkaku, and it was also Kumogakure's territory, wouldn't it be even easier to kill Tobirama-sensei?

Therefore, the truth is simply that Gold Horn and Silver Horn launched a rebellion.

Of course, it was also because the Second Raikage lacked sufficient mastery of the Hidden Cloud Village.

As for the Second Raikage's strength, that's also a point of contention. [Sarutobi: "So, the light screen is just a smear campaign against my teacher; it's complete nonsense."]

Tobirama in the group silently gave Sarutobi a thumbs up, well done.

[Awei: @Third Raikage, aren't you going to say anything?]

The Third Raikage was also in the group, but he wasn't very active.

Now, Ah Wei's sudden tagging of the Third Raikage has surprised even the Third Raikage.

However, the Third Raikage didn't want to say more.

The Third Raikage supported what Hiruzen Sarutobi said.

With the support of the Third Raikage, Sarutobi felt even more confident.

Many people, both inside and outside the group, were surprised.

The Third Raikage harbored considerable animosity towards Konoha during his lifetime.

The Third Raikage should not have let go of the opportunity to smear Tobirama; even if he didn't have the chance, he should have found one.

Therefore, the Third Raikage in the group was clearly not right.

Yunyin Village.

The Fourth Raikage is the son of the Third Raikage, and both are known by the name A.

Because they were father and son, the Fourth Raikage knew the Third Raikage quite well.

Therefore, the Fourth Raikage also clearly sensed that something was wrong.

"What is Dad thinking?" The Fourth Raikage was confused.

In the Fourth Raikage's view, regardless of whether it's true or false, the Second Hokage should be smeared to death whenever the opportunity arises.

Killer Bee, standing to the side, was also puzzled.

After analyzing the situation in his mind, the Fourth Raikage came up with his own explanation.

His father is dead, and he doesn't understand the current state of Kumogakure, so he doesn't dare to offend Konoha for fear of causing trouble for Kumogakure.

Furthermore, the screen says that this world is Naruto, and Konoha is the main character.

and so……

"My father did it all for Kumogakure," the Fourth Raikage murmured to himself.

When the Fourth Raikage shared his thoughts with Killer Bee, Killer Bee agreed, saying it was definitely the case.

[Hashirama: Tobirama isn't as bad as the light screen portrays him.]

It's not surprising that Hashirama would speak up for Tobirama, after all, they are brothers.

In Hashirama's heart, Tobirama's importance was no less than Mito's!
What? Madara? Let's not compare that.

However, Hashirama's eyes widened as he stared blankly at the light screen.

Zundu and fake toot?

……

After the First Raikage died, the Second Raikage took over, but the strongest person in Kumogakure was not the Second Raikage, but someone who had not yet become the Third Raikage. Even the Gold and Silver Brothers were stronger than the Second Raikage, which put the Second Raikage in a somewhat awkward position...

At this moment, Danzo in the group pointed the finger at Madara, saying that everything was Madara's design.

Madara wanted revenge on Konoha, so he stirred up trouble between Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

In a certain forest in the ninja world, Obito acknowledged Danzo's statement.

It must have been designed by Ban.

Madara, born evil.

The death of the Second Hokage, the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan, and some problems in Kirigakure were all orchestrated by Madara.

Of course, for Obito, Madara should never have plotted against Rin.

Ban deserves to die for killing Rin; he is absolutely unforgivable.

That means he wasn't in the group chat, otherwise Obito would definitely have fully supported Danzo.

Madara snorted coldly, too lazy to pay any attention to Danzo.

Hashirama is @Madara.

After Hashirama and Madara had a private conversation, Hashirama became certain that Tobirama's death had nothing to do with Madara.

Danzo was a bit tired. Which side was the First Hokage on?
It seems like the First Hokage becomes a bit abnormal when it comes to Madara Uchiha.

Through the light screen, Madara learned a lot of important information, including Black Zetsu's plan, which changed Madara's mindset to some extent.

Madara is in the same chat group as Hashirama, so it seems that the 'bond' between Madara and Hashirama is being restored.

Tobirama: ...You mere Madara, you think you can scheme against me?

Ban: I overestimated you. You were completely unaware of the garbage design you received; you're utterly foolish.

Judging from Ban's words, he seems to know something.

Hashirama immediately pressed for details, but Madara remained silent.

According to the message displayed on the screen, the Second Raikage's decision to negotiate with Tobirama was also a way to secure external support.

But why would a village's shadow need to find outside help?

Is the Second Raikage really that weak?
According to the light curtain, Tobirama had already offended the four Kage.

The enmity between the four great ninja villages and Konoha is not easy to resolve.

So why did the Second Raikage want to make peace with Tobirama?
Was it a major defeat for the Cloud Ninja on the battlefield? But that doesn't seem to be the case!

So, the Second Raikage's predicament required Konoha to provide external assistance?

Which of the five great ninja villages has such weak control over its own village?
[Hashirama: @Tobirama, what do you think?]

Tobirama was thinking.

He sensed something was wrong when he was ambushed by the Golden Horn and Silver Horn back then.

Looking back now, it seems the Second Raikage probably really did seek outside help back then.

If the Second Raikage is seeking outside help, then...

The more Tobirama thought about it, the more alarmed he became, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

Was he tricked?
His brother said it wasn't designed by Ban, so it should be believable.

Based on the information we have now, piecing it together, the whole truth is about to be revealed.

Although he already had a guess in his mind, Tobirama didn't say it in the group chat. He wanted to see what the screen would say.

Tobirama began to believe what was said on the light screen.

The live stream on the screen looks very serious, so it must be based on solid evidence!

If things go as he expects, the ninja world will be in an uproar.

The relationship between Konoha and Kumogakure will become even more complicated.

Even within the Hidden Cloud Village, there's likely to be some trouble.

The Second Raikage's intention to seek outside help was noticed by the Third Raikage, which was not good news for the ambitious Third Raikage...

The Third Raikage, also in the Pure Land: ...He's ambitious?

Okay! Ambitions certainly exist.

But the Third Raikage had a bad feeling.

How many years has he been dead? A light screen… that’s a bit unfair!

On the light screen, the Second Raikage looked delighted as Tobirama arrived at Kumogakure.

Tobirama came for peace, while the Second Raikage said that Kumogakure also longed for peace.
