Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Chapter 247 Konoha's First Pokémon Masters Tournament

Uchiha Gin, who had felt from the beginning that this matter would not go so smoothly, looked at the successful Senju Tobirama and touched his bald chin as if thinking.
The situation has now become 4V4, and the outcome has suddenly become confusing.
"Kacha. What else are we competing for? Are we competing to see who has more tails?"

Senju Itama, who was cracking melon seeds, looked back and forth between his elder brother and Uchiha Madara with an ignorant look, without the slightest sign of worry. Instead, he turned around and asked Uchiha Gin with great interest,

"Give it to me~ You don't worry about your big brother losing power at all~"

Because he had already eaten all the melon seeds, Uchiha Gin unceremoniously took back the few remaining melon seeds from Senju Itama's white and tender little hand, and threw them directly into his mouth without caring about the little bit of crystal saliva on them.

"Ah! Hum~ It doesn't matter who becomes the Hokage. I think your cousin is a nice guy except for his stinky face~"

With his face puffed up, Senju Itama glared at Uchiha Gin, who was beating him like a bandit. Then he shook his head, put on a nonchalant expression, and answered casually,
"Huh~ I wish everyone had the same simple ideas as you~"

Uchiha Gin casually patted Senju Itama's head. This habitual action made the girl, who was nearly 1.7 meters tall, stiffen up instantly. Her face became very strange. She wanted to explode, but she didn't say much.

"Sasuke, Senju clan leader still has a chance. We don't have to look at the eyes of that damn curly-haired man!"

Shimura Kenichi, who had just been in despair, was instantly revived after seeing that Senju Hashirama still had a chance. He excitedly came to Sarutobi Sasuke and said,

"Don't worry, wait and see."

Sarutobi Sasuke analyzed the situation calmly. In his opinion, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were both the founders of Konoha. No matter which of them was elected, it would not have much impact on their Sarutobi clan.

"Ayin, what do you think they will compete in next?"

The black-haired girl looked at the several tailed beasts present with great interest. Uchiha Hikaru had a strong interest in these creatures composed of a collection of chakras.

Looks like it's well controlled.
Uchiha Gin, who was asked, stretched his stiff body and replied casually,
"It's most likely a fight, after all, the two haven't sparred for a long time. But it's not certain whether it's really a competition of tail numbers."

Uchiha Gin, who had been standing for a long time and felt his legs were sore, immediately took out a few stools from his backpack and distributed them to the girls around him. Then he looked at the ninja alliance sitting in a circle and waved the remaining stools in his hand.
"Do you need it? 1000 taels each~"

"1000 taels, why don't you go and rob it!"

Shimura Kenichi immediately jumped out and accused with gritted teeth,
Even this small broken stool, 100 taels is too expensive for him.
"No thanks, we're not tired yet."

Reaching out and tugging at his friend who was jumping up and down, Sarutobi Sasuke smiled apologetically and waved his hand at Uchiha Gin.

"Huh~Okay."

Although he failed to sell his Wood Release Mazak, Uchiha Gin was not discouraged.
Gold will always shine, and he believes that the stools he carefully made will one day become a best-seller all over the world.

On the wooden cage, Hashirama Senju, who knew that he still had a chance to continue the game, had a bright smile on his face, which made Uchiha Madara look sideways.
"Haha, Motor, I'm back again~"

"Hmph~ It doesn't matter. I will defeat you once again and make you admit defeat sincerely."

Quickly retracting his gaze, Uchiha Madara folded his hands, snorted tsunderely, and announced to the eager Hashirama Senju,

Then he turned around and looked at Tobirama Senju who looked very pleased with himself, and asked coldly,

"Senju Tobirama, don't keep us in suspense. Tell us what you want to compete in!"

The questioned Senju Tobirama did not answer immediately, but took the opportunity to look at the several tailed beasts present. His scarlet eyes were full of conspiracy and intrigue. The corners of his thin mouth curled up slightly, and he shouted loudly,

"Since both of you have the same number of tailed beasts, then you have more tails than the tailed beasts."

"Xu~~~"

Before Senju Tobirama could finish his words, a round of mocking boos rang out from the field, and everyone below had an expression of "as expected".

The undisguised contempt made the famously cold Senju Tobirama feel a little hot on his face.

There was no other way. In order to ensure his big brother's victory, he chose to lose face.

This battle must be won no matter what!
"Senju Tobirama, I'm going to the morning office, can you please have some shame?"

My little cousin Izuna was so angry that his whole body was shaking. His black eyes instantly turned scarlet. He uttered sweet words to Tobirama Senju above.
"Hey, hey, hey, can you stop being so boring and put on some show effects~"

Uchiha Gin on the side also shook his hands and loudly accused the organizers of being extremely perfunctory. This unprecedented battle was too anticlimactic and not worth the price of the ticket.

"That's it!"

Senju Itama immediately followed, waving his little fists, his eyes full of threats that Senju Tobirama could understand.
"Uh this."

Senju Tobirama, who had already opened the champagne in his heart with joy, did not expect that his little thoughts were perfectly seen through by the sharp eyes of the people present. Especially after seeing the look in his sister's eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
So, Senju Tobirama began to review the situation in his mind.

Now that all the members of the Ninja Alliance are present, if we really judge the winner based on the number of tails, it is indeed unreasonable and the result will naturally be unconvincing.
So, what method should be used to determine the winner?
"Tobirama, I also think it's unfair."

With a rare serious look on his face, Hashirama Senju shook his head at his biased brother and rejected the Tail Contest.

"Brother, I."

Senju Tobirama was in great pain. He had worked very hard to help his elder brother become the Hokage. He had never expected the situation to turn out like this.
"Hoo~ Chongming! Just wait, I'll be the first one to cut you when we get out!"

Just when Senju Tobirama was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard the roar of the Nine-Tailed Fox in the wooden cage below him. The sound was full of tyranny, making the surrounding tailed beasts shrink in fear.

Especially the big beetle that deceived everyone, it huddled in the corner of the wooden cage, not daring to look up, for fear that any unnecessary movement would cause dissatisfaction to the Nine-Tailed Fox.
Eh~ The nine-tailed demon fox captured by big brother can make the other tailed beasts retreat just by its aura. It seems that the tailed beasts must have suffered a lot!

Thinking of this, Tobirama Senju, who was in a dilemma, suddenly brightened up. He straightened his waist that was bent by his elder brother, looked at everyone present with a serious expression, raised one hand high, and announced loudly,

"I, Tobirama Senju, came here for only three things: fairness! Fairness! And damn fairness!"

"How can something as trivial as the number of tails determine the position of Hokage?"

"Oh~"

When everyone heard this, they all showed an expression of disbelief.

This Senju Tobirama's expression-changing speed is far superior to Kawaji's.

"Is this really going to be a thrilling 1v1 man-to-man battle?"

Uchiha Gin, who was watching the show, raised his head and looked at Senju Tobirama who was talking eloquently above him. He raised his eyebrows and guessed,

"Are you going to fight?"

"Isn't it inappropriate? Using force to decide the position of leader is setting a bad precedent."

"Hey, I thought the village would be different, but I didn't expect it would still be a fight~"

The people in the audience were talking about different things. All kinds of speculations came one after another, which made Hashirama Senju, who had super senses, look dark. He looked at his brother with more and more unfriendly eyes. Veins popped out on his forehead, and he had a tendency to go berserk.

Senju Tobirama had promised him before that he would never use force against any member of the village, but now, he actually asked him to use force. It seems that this kid needs to be punished recently.

"Ahem, stop guessing. When did I say we're going to use force to decide the outcome?"

Being locked in the gaze of his elder brother, Senju Tobirama suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Afraid that he would be punished by Senju Hashirama's iron fist in the next second, he hurriedly shouted to stop the rumors from spreading.

"Really?"

Everyone present expressed disbelief, and the mocking eyes made Senju Tobirama sweat profusely.
"For the next battle, there will be no need for the two players to directly compete."

After straightening his mind, Senju Tobirama set his eyes on the huge tailed beast and spoke slowly,

"Nani? What do you mean?"

This sentence confused everyone present, and they all asked soul-searching questions,
"Tobirama, if we don't take action, what are we going to compete in? Beating stones on water?"

"no!"

When it comes to skipping stones, Uchiha Madara, who had kept his back straight for his entire life, finally bent it.

"No, the next battle will be between the two contestants and the tailed beasts they captured."

Shaking his head, Senju Tobirama pointed at the four tailed beasts captured by both sides, and then announced the content of this competition in a deep voice.
"Huh?"
As soon as the words fell, all the people and animals present expressed doubts.
"Roar!!! Damn humans, we are not your toys!"

After a brief moment of confusion, the Nine-Tails was the first to wake up, opened its bloody mouth, and roared at the Senju Tobirama above its head,
"Roar!!"

"Sigh~"

"窣~"

Five, six, and seven other tails also stood up and responded at the same time, roaring angrily. Steam, acid mist, and squinting scale powder rose into the sky, making the people watching the show nervous.
Feeling the power generated by the angry tailed beast, Sarutobi Sasuke, who was still frightened, patted his chest. There was less relaxation and more solemnity in his eyes.

"I almost forgot, the tailed beasts are known as disaster beasts."

Having seen these tailed beasts being easily controlled by Uchiha Madara and casually imprisoned by Senju Hashirama, they almost forgot the vicious reputation of the tailed beasts and regarded them as little pets that could be manipulated at will.

"Oh my god, isn't this the first Pokémon Masters Tournament of Konoha Village?"

Uchiha Gin only felt a breeze on his face when faced with the might released by the tailed beasts. There was no ripple in his heart. Instead, he looked at the furious tailed beasts curiously and began to imagine the scene of the competition.
Uchiha Madara: Johnny Isobushi, use Rocket Headbutt!
Hashirama Senju: Bido Shigeaki, fly up and use the Mega Cannon!
Shit, the visual is here, it’s on fire!
"Hurry up and start, I want to see it so hot~"

Unable to suppress his restlessness, Uchiha Gin jumped up from his stool, holding up a loud speaker he had taken out from somewhere, and urged loudly,

"It looks quite interesting~" Senju Itama on the side looked back and forth among the many tailed beasts, and then his eyes lit up like Uchiha Gin, waving his little fists and shouting,

"Everyone wants to see it, hurry up~"

Phew~ I was almost exposed!

Fortunately, Uchiha Gin was immersed in the fantasy of a battle between Pokémon and Digimon and did not notice the girl's slip of the tongue.

"Indeed, this kind of competition is much more interesting than a real-life fight."

Uchiha Jiji, who was sitting on a stool with dignity, expressed his thoughts with a bit of curiosity in his eyes.
"Brother! Come on~"

Uchiha Izuna took out a cheering flag from somewhere, on which was written the words "Uchiha will win".

He took off his shirt, revealing his muscular upper body. He stood in front of the crowd, waving the flag in his hand vigorously.

"Hmph~ I have no objection."

Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't fight Hashirama Senju head-on, Uchiha Madara still nodded and agreed with this way of playing.
Glancing at the extremely strong Gyu-ki under his feet, Uchiha Madara was full of confidence at this moment. With such a powerful tailed beast, he would surely smash Hasila Ma's few country chickens and clay dogs into pieces.

“I agree, but.”

Seeing that his opponent had no objection, Senju Hashirama had to nod in agreement. Then he lowered his head and looked at the four tailed beasts in the wooden cage who were very resistant. He became worried.

Unlike Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama can use the Sharingan to hypnotize the mind and make the tailed beasts obey him.
When he captured the tailed beasts, he used Wood Release to perform physical hypnosis. Now that the tailed beasts he trapped have awakened, how could they possibly fight for him?

"Do you need my help?"

Seeing the difficulty of Senju Hashirama at this time, Uchiha Madara "thoughtfully" offered to help.

Although it is a bit difficult to control eight tailed beasts at once, he is the future Hokage, so he can persevere despite the hardship.
"Um~ No need, wait a moment, I'll communicate with these tailed beasts, you go and do some warm-up first!"

If Uchiha Madara really controls these ones, then he will be useless.
1V9?

"Okay, let me know when you're ready."

Since the second generation was so ungrateful, Uchiha Madara, who had already claimed to be the first generation, had to shake his head regretfully, and then controlled the four obedient tailed beasts and walked towards the depths of the forest.

After watching Uchiha Madara walk away, Senju Hashirama, with a frown on his face, looked at the grinning Nine-Tails in the wooden cage at his feet, and began to try to communicate with it.

"Hello, my name is Senju Hashirama. Although it may be a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask, can you help me fight?"

Senju Hashirama lowered his attitude and basically talked about the competition with the tailed beasts in a negotiating tone.

"Don't even think about it! Damn humans, we, the tailed beasts, will never be used by you even if we die!"

Kurama, who had been stabbed in the back countless times by humans, immediately bared his teeth and stated that he was the King of the Tailed Beast Realm, Jingze, and would never compromise with humans.

"That's right~"

"The worst case scenario is death!"

"Alas~ I finally shed my skin, but I haven't taken off yet. Am I going to be reborn again?"

The other tailed beasts also united as a team and showed great resistance, like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Since they can be resurrected after death, these tailed beasts are fearless and wait for death to come.
"Ah this."

Unexpectedly, the attitude of the tailed beasts was so firm that Hashirama Senju didn't know what to do. He immediately turned his eyes to Tobirama Senju who was in deep thought for help.
"Well, you tailed beasts, do you measure your strength by the number of tails you have?"

Senju Tobirama, who had been giving advice to Senju Hashirama, slowly raised his head and asked the tailed beasts at his feet in a cold voice,
"Hehe~ That's right, we tailed beasts, the more tails we have, the stronger we are!"

This question really hit the heart of Kyuubi. The corners of its huge mouth could not help but rise, and it held its head high, with pride in its words.

"Um, I think so~"

Chongming looked at the seven tails behind him, and his tone was less confident and more hesitant.

When I fought before, I didn't seem to win much~
"That's right! The fewer tails, the weaker the strength!"

The rhino dog gets excited when talking about tails. As the one with six tails, it always feels that those with fewer tails than itself are losers!
"cough cough"

King Mu, who has the shortest tail among the four beasts, expressed his unwillingness to join the chat.

"Wuwei, is your throat inflamed? Why are you coughing?"

The complacent Nine-Tailed Fox, upon hearing that King Mu did not respond to his words, turned sharp, staring at the Five-Tailed Fox with threatening eyes, making it hairy all over.

"Ahem Chongming! Your scale powder choked me!"

Even the tailed beasts know this: they want to pick on the weak.
"Since you have so many tails, are you afraid of losing to those tailed beasts?"

The despicable white-haired man uses provocation against the innocent tailed beast!

"Roar! How is that possible? Even if they stand shoulder to shoulder with just a few losers, they are no match for me!"

This simple method of provoking animals is very effective.

"Then why don't you fight?"

Senju Tobirama pursued the enemy with his might, questioning them soul-searchingly, trying to find the psychological weaknesses of the tailed beasts and gradually break through their psychological defenses.

"Humph~ You are just a mere human, you want to control us? At most you will die. When you are resurrected, be prepared to accept our revenge!"

The pride of the tailed beasts made the Nine-Tails never consider bowing down in front of anyone other than the Six Paths Sage's family.
He turned his yellow animal eyes and stared at the Thousand Hands brothers, as if he wanted to engrave their appearance in his heart and wait to take revenge on them in the future.

"Huh~ You dare! Believe it or not, I will kill you every time I see you!"

I didn't expect the Nine-Tails to have such a strong desire for revenge. Fearing that Konoha would suffer revenge, Hashirama Senju frowned and threatened coldly,
The cold light in his eyes made several tailed beasts avoid his gaze and lower their voices.
Being stared at like this by Hashirama Senju, the Nine-Tails suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, and then subconsciously clamped the nine tails into the crack of its buttocks.
Thousands of years ago, it had just killed a group of humans who tried to control it, and Asura suddenly appeared and stared at it like this.
Then, a towering Buddha appeared, and its tail was plucked out. It didn’t want to experience that feeling again in its life.
"Well, how about you let us go? From now on, we will never set foot in the Fire Country~"

He was worried that what happened a thousand years ago would happen again. This kind of humiliation is more shameful than death. If the other tailed beasts knew about it, wouldn't his image as Lao Da no longer be able to stand? Then he lowered his head and replied in a negotiating tone,
"No! If I let you go, my brother's position as Hokage will be handed over to someone else!"

Unexpectedly, these tailed beasts wanted to get something for free. Senju Tobirama was the first to refuse. He then looked at Senju Hashirama obscurely, frowned and said,
It’s good enough that I didn’t ask you for a ransom, but you actually want us to release it for free. What a joke!

"At worst, we can just keep it locked up. We won't starve to death anyway~"

Seeing that freedom was hopeless, the Nine-Tailed Fox began to choose to play badly. As long as the chakra existed, its lifespan was infinite. As long as it could outlast the human with the aura of Asura in front of it, it could regain its freedom.

The human lifespan is only a few decades, but in the eyes of the tailed beasts, it is just a blink of an eye.

"Humph! Do you think I will let you stay in here peacefully?"

Looking at the tailed beasts who refused to cooperate, Senju Tobirama narrowed his eyes, his mind was full of fancy operations,

Recently, he happened to be researching some forbidden techniques. If they were used on humans, it would be inconsistent with his values. However, it would be a waste of rare materials like the tailed beasts if they were not used for experiments.

I have plenty of ways to make them live in a dilemma and unable to die.

"Hiss, you have a dangerous look in your eyes."

The Nine-Tails has a special ability to sense good and evil. When Senju Tobirama was planning how to dissect the tailed beast, he suddenly felt a chill on his back. Looking at the white-haired human who exuded tangible malice, he swallowed and said,
"I'll give you one last chance to consider whether to participate in the competition or the experiment."

With a gloomy face, Tobirama Senju folded his arms across his chest and stared at the tailed beasts. Although there were no magatama in his scarlet eyes, it made the tailed beasts feel as terrified as if they were facing Indra.

"Ahem, it's not impossible to discuss~"

After another fierce ideological struggle, Nine-Tailed Fox chose to compromise. The white-haired human in front of him was too evil.

They dared not imagine what kind of cruel and brutal torture they would suffer if they fell into his hands.
"Haha, it's good that we can discuss it. Tobirama, don't scare them~"

The brothers cooperated well, and when Senju Tobirama finished singing with a sullen face, Senju Hashirama came out with a smile to smooth things over.
With a smile on his face, he looked down at the obedient tailed beasts and spoke slowly,

"How about this, if you win the game, I promise to let you go, how about that?"

If the strength is calculated according to the tails as the tailed beasts said, then if I have five, six, seven, nine, and four big cards, I will be able to defeat Madara in seconds without leaving anything behind.

"really!"

Hearing that he could regain his freedom, the Nine-Tails instantly perked up. Its two huge animal eyes stared closely at Senju Hashirama, repeatedly confirming,

Kyuubi still has some fear in his heart towards this human who can easily control him. It is a trauma engraved deep in his soul from thousands of years ago.

"It's packaged~"

Senju Hashirama patted his chest and promised,

Of course, releasing them is based on the premise that the tailed beasts win the game. If they lose, it doesn’t count.
Looking at the human in front of them, speaking righteously, the tailed beasts felt relieved. Their long-standing arrogance prevented them from even considering the possibility of losing.

Then, the four tailed beasts raised their huge heads in unison and locked their gazes on the four huge figures standing not far away, with fighting spirit in their eyes.

When eyes meet, the battle begins!
"Tata, we can't wait to have an exciting duel! Yada thief~"
