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

After saying this, Uchiha Madara left the venue without looking back, leaving the mess to Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Izuna to deal with.

"Hey, little cousin, you go comfort the tribesmen first. I'll go talk to my eldest cousin."

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Madara was so decisive that he left without even any extra explanation. Uchiha Gin stood up helplessly, said something to Uchiha Izuna, and left quickly.

There was an inconspicuous member of the tribe in the meeting hall. After listening to Uchiha Madara's explosive speech, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes. He took advantage of the chaos to quietly leave, and no one knew where he went.

Uchiha Gin walked out of the venue and quickly caught up with Uchiha Madara's back. He found that his eldest cousin was following him. He lowered his head silently, looking as helpless as a child who had done something wrong and was waiting to be punished.

"Let's go, this is not the place to talk."

Uchiha Gin, who was about to start scolding, sighed slightly in his heart, pointed to the backyard, and motioned the other party to follow.

Uchiha Gin knew that it would be useless to say anything now. The Uchiha clan was not an ironclad clan. It was estimated that what Uchiha Madara had just said had already been presented to the Senju brothers.

"You left to find the Kyuubi, right?"

Sitting in the pavilion in the backyard, Uchiha Gin looked up at Uchiha Madara who had remained silent the entire time, and said slowly,

"Brother, how did you know?"

Uchiha Madara raised his head in silence, looking at Uchiha Gin who was sighing and holding his forehead, and he looked very puzzled.
How could I not know? You just asked me about the tailed beasts a few days ago, and today you were preparing to run away from the village. If you were not going to catch the Nine-Tailed Fox, I would have cut off the basket and used it as an altar for the female ghost to drink.

"How can a dog owner not know the moral character of a dog?"

"I huh~"

The words are rough but the truth is, Uchiha Gin is indeed one of the people in the world who knows him best. Uchiha Madara had no choice but to swallow his anger and accept this statement.

"What a hassle! Can't you just follow the route I planned for you?"

Seeing that Uchiha Madara stopped talking, Uchiha Gin felt a headache. He could just wait, so why did he have to prove himself?

Could it be Indra's chakra that is causing trouble?
Thinking of this, Uchiha Gin suddenly had an epiphany. Indra and Ashura have been fighting for several lifetimes, and their resentment has grown deeper and deeper. They will definitely cause trouble as soon as they get the chance.

Fortunately, I haven’t collected all the fragments yet. Next time I see something gay, I’ll just click on it!

Even if the eldest cousin is willing to compromise, the chakra in his body will not agree. It is estimated that he is subtly being imprisoned in the Hashira room all the time.

"Cousin, I know you are doing this for my own good."

Hearing Uchiha Gin's mumbling, Uchiha Madara was deeply moved. He knew that since the founding of the village, his eldest cousin had been worrying about his position as Hokage, and even took that guy Senju Tobirama into account.

However, every time when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, some inexplicable obsession would always emerge in Uchiha Madara's heart, constantly telling him that he had to win and defeat Hasila Ma fairly to prove himself.

"If there is something dirty, then there is really nothing we can do."

Uchiha Gin, who had figured out why Uchiha Madara could do such a stupid thing, shook his head helplessly. His lifeless eyes seemed to see through everything, making Uchiha Madara a little puzzled. He subconsciously checked his clothes.
There shouldn't be any stains on me, right?

"But it's not very nice to leave without saying anything. Let's say goodbye to Hashirama in prison~"

"No need. If everything goes well, I'll be back in a few days."

Uchiha Madara didn't know how to face Senju Hashirama. After all, it was his fault because he left the village first.

"That's not up to you."

Uchiha Gin stretched out a finger, pointed at a small black dot in the sky, and reminded his older cousin without even raising his head, "The person you're thinking about is here."

"Boom!"

As the black dot grew bigger, Hashirama Senju, wearing a Hokage robe, descended from the sky and stomped hard on the ground, creating a large hole in the compacted earth.
"Madara! Why did you leave me?"

With a panicked look on his honest and handsome face, after hearing the inside information, Senju Hashirama became extremely anxious and jumped directly from the Hokage Building to the Uchiha clan's territory.
"Sorry, Hasi La Mama, I have a reason why I have to go."

Although he was very reluctant, Uchiha Madara still gritted his teeth and insisted. Seeing this, Senju Hashirama hurriedly took a step forward, opened his hands, and spoke in a very sincere tone.
"I can't do without your help! You are the Hokage's right-hand man, my brother, I hope you can continue to assist me!"

However, in the face of Senju Hashirama's emotional entreaties, Uchiha Madara, who had already made up his mind, chose to remain silent.
Seeing this, Senju Hashirama, who was very anxious, quickly added,

"Ten years? No! Five years. Just five years. By then, you will be the second generation."

"Humph~ Do you think I will accept your charity? I, Uchiha Madara, will get everything I want through my own strength!"

Hearing Senju Hashirama's promise, Uchiha Madara slowly raised his head, a very disdainful expression on his face, his hands folded across his chest, and looked at the other party with a very serious look.

"Then why do you want to leave the village? This is the utopia we built together."

"I will return!"

"how long?"

"do not know."

When he heard Uchiha Madara say he would be back, a hint of joy flashed across Senju Hashirama's face, but when he heard that the time was uncertain, he felt helpless again.

"At least tell me why."

"I'm sorry to tell you."

He must not let Hasilama know that he had captured the Nine-Tailed Fox, as it was his secret weapon.

"Brother Yin, please help persuade them too!"

Senju Hashirama saw that his persuasion was fruitless, so he cast a pleading look at Uchiha Gin who was watching the show nearby.

"My brother has a stubborn temper, and even the ten tailed beasts can't pull him back."

After chewing and swallowing the melon seeds in his mouth, Uchiha Gin spread his hands, acting helpless.
"We can't just watch Madara become a traitor and leave the village without permission!"

Unexpectedly, even Uchiha Gin's words were useless. Senju Hashirama was really anxious. The chakra in his body overflowed uncontrollably and his eyes became sharp.

If talking is useless, then we can only cripple Mada La.

I will be responsible for raising him for his whole life!
Affected by the chakra in Hashirama Senju's body, Uchiha Madara's eyes gradually turned scarlet, and the violent fighting spirit in his heart began to rise.

"Hashirama, your eyes are very dangerous. Please be patient. Things are not serious enough to cause a big fight."

Sensing the chakra surging like a volcano in Senju Hashirama's body, Uchiha Gin threw away the melon seed shells in his hand and raised his hand to block the two of them.

"Big cousin?"

"Brother Yin?"

The two of them looked at Uchiha Gin who was standing in the middle, and were both shocked, secretly blaming themselves for becoming so impulsive.

"Can't we just let our eldest cousin go out and relax?"

Uchiha Gin was not overwhelmed by the momentum of the two men. Instead, he scratched his head as if nothing had happened and asked Senju Hashirama,
"Madara's role as the Eiji is too sensitive, and this is not wartime, so he shouldn't leave his post without permission."

"Logically speaking, that means there is still room for discussion~"

"If it's some secret mission, it's not impossible to leave the village."

Senju Hashirama thought about it and answered truthfully.

"That's right! Cousin, come here and tell me if you have any long-term tasks recently."

Uchiha Gin's eyes lit up and he quickly called out to Uchiha Madara who was silent beside him. As the head of the mission hall, he must know information about the mission.

"Unfortunately, there is no such task in the mission hall."

Shaking his head slightly, Uchiha Madara replied regretfully that this kind of secret mission definitely could not be announced in the mission hall, but had to be issued directly by the Hokage through a single line of communication.

"Whoosh!"

Just as the three were discussing, a blue lightning suddenly flashed behind Senju Hashirama, and the fully armed Senju Tobirama arrived with the Flying Thunder God Seal engraved on his eldest brother's body. After landing, he raised his head, with deep joy in his scarlet eyes.
"Brother! Uchiha Madara is rebelling, right? It turns out that Uchiha is born evil, Lao Deng, I will do it myself"

However, before he could finish his words, he saw three pairs of eyes filled with mockery, staring at him, causing him to swallow back the next words.

"Ahem. So you haven't left yet?"

Embarrassed, he retracted the short blade in his hand, coughed lightly a few times, and hid behind his eldest brother.

"You damned white-haired man, I'm just leaving for a while, what do you mean by rebelling?"

He had already guessed that Tobirama Senju would make a big fuss about his leaving the village without permission, but he didn't expect that he would be accused of treason before he even left. Uchiha Madara was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he wished he could give this guy a knife.

"You left your post without permission. If it's not an attempt to rebel, what else could it be?"

With his big brother as his backer, Senju Tobirama became much more confident.

"I!"

Unable to tell anyone about the capture of the Nine-Tails, Uchiha Madara could only look as if he was hesitant to speak, which only exacerbated Senju Tobirama's suspicion.
"Brother, look, he has nothing to say. Why don't you arrest him and send him to jail for trial on a later date?"

"Okay, Tobirama, stop messing around. Mada really has something to go out for."

Reaching out to hold down his helpless and barking brother, Senju Hashirama explained to him helplessly,
"Report it if you really have something to worry about. After all, I am not such an unkind village party secretary. As long as the reason is right, I will approve it~"

After hearing what his elder brother said, Senju Tobirama, who felt a little regretful, put on the airs of a village party secretary, doing his job in an impartial manner, which made people want to punch him.

"Humph~"

Senju Tobirama's attitude clearly wants me to beg him, but Uchiha Madara won't buy it. If you want to take advantage of me, let your Lord Hokage do it instead!
"Oh~ Then there's nothing to discuss. Remember to go to work on time tomorrow!"

Seeing that Uchiha Madara was unwilling to beg him humbly, Senju Tobirama immediately spread his hands and told the other party not to be late tomorrow.

"Brother, I have a plan for the Tailed Beast Knights here. Please take a look at it. If it is feasible, I will recruit the right person."

Without paying any more attention to the red-faced Uchiha Madara, Senju Tobirama pulled out a document from his bosom and handed it to the embarrassed Senju Hashirama.

"Alas~ I'm not in the mood now. Let's go back and watch it later." Senju Hashirama has no time to deal with government affairs now. The top priority at the moment is to please his old lover.

"Oh? Let me see~"

Uchiha Gin, who was standing by, raised his eyebrows when he heard the words "Tailed Beast Knight" and took the document from Senju Tobirama very naturally.

"Ah! You may look at it if you like."

Unexpectedly, the confidential documents were intercepted halfway. Senju Tobirama, who was about to attack, saw that the person who snatched the documents was Uchiha Gin. The vigilance in his eyes slowly dissipated, and he nodded helplessly.

"Well, this is like a sleepy head meeting a pillow!"

Flipping through the documents handed over by Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Gin gradually showed a smile on his face, then he raised his head and said to Uchiha Madara who had a tense face,
"Cousin, your mission is here~"

"what?"

"That's it. I didn't expect this white-haired guy would do good things~"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Curly?"

Uchiha Gin's words confused everyone.
"Aren't you in need of someone to help you inspect the four nations to see if they are abiding by the peace agreement, and to secretly investigate the Tailed Beast Knights?"

"Ah."

"This kind of mission requires someone who has a strong sense of belonging to Konoha and is strong and intimidating to carry it out."

"Uh-huh."

"What do you think of my eldest cousin? Is he the best candidate~"

"okokokok?"

Following Uchiha Gin's words, Senju Tobirama kept nodding his head. After hearing Uchiha Gin recommending Uchiha Madara to carry out the mission, he froze in place, twisted his stiff neck, and was speechless for a moment.

"Let me be healthy!"

Seeing this, Senju Hashirama took the plan from Uchiha Gin's hand and read it carefully. After a while, with a look of joy on his face, he handed the plan to Uchiha Madara who looked puzzled.

"This is."

Uchiha Madara took it in a daze, looked at the plan in his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This white-haired guy really helped me a lot this time.

It turned out that after learning the information about the Tailed Beast Knight from Uchiha Gin, Tobirama Senju did not sleep well all night. The next day, when no one was around, he secretly contacted his sister and asked her out to ask about what happened during the mission.

Unexpectedly, in the mouth of Senju Itama, the power of the Tailed Beast Rider was further exaggerated, such as a thousand strikes in an instant and a crow flying on an airplane. Hearing this, he felt more and more depressed.
After bidding farewell to his miniature sister, Senju Tobirama went back and immediately started writing, listing the Tailed Beast Knight as an S-level threat, and then began to write a plan. The general content was that Konoha would send a powerful secret team to secretly inspect whether the four major countries abided by the peace agreement, while secretly collecting intelligence about the Tailed Beast Knight.

"Hmph~ Don't bother recruiting a team. I can handle this kind of mission on my own."

Since Uchiha Madara had other plans, he didn't want to team up with others.

"Tobirama, I think Madara is a good fit, and he is the Hokage's assistant, so his loyalty is absolutely reliable!"

At this moment, Tobirama Senju, who had calmed down, frowned slightly. When he was writing the plan, he had already been thinking about suitable candidates, but after a round, he found that there were not many reliable people in Konoha, and most of them were not strong enough, so he hurriedly found Hashirama Senju to discuss.

Now, after Uchiha Gin'ichi's reminder, he realized that he had overlooked the Uchiha clan. He had never included Uchiha Madara in the list of options.

After all, in the opinion of Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Madara, who was obsessed with being Hokage, would certainly not accept a long business trip.

"Would you like to go?"

"It is my duty as the Hokage's assistant to help Hasi La Ma solve her problems!"

At this time, Uchiha Madara behaved like a good employee who was dedicated to his duties, and Senju Tobirama could not find any fault with him.

"You have to think clearly. This is a secret mission. As the executor, you will leave quietly and be destined to bear the slander of the village. Only when you complete the mission and return, can we clear your name."

Feeling uncomfortable, Senju Tobirama explained the interests of the mission clearly to Uchiha Madara.

"You are now the Hokage's assistant. There is no need to gamble your future for a mission."

Although Tobirama Senju had a deep prejudice against Uchiha Madara, so far, the Uchiha clan has not only not held Konoha back or hindered the development of the village, but has also brought many positive effects to the development of Konoha.

Maybe I was looking at Uchiha Madara through tinted glasses before. This guy is not as annoying as I imagined.

"You stupid white-haired fellow, who are you looking down upon?"

Feeling looked down upon, Uchiha Madara's eyes suddenly became sharp, and tremendous pupil power overflowed. The cold and obscure pressure made Senju Tobirama's heart palpitate.

You’re not wearing it wrong, it’s indeed the naturally evil Uchiha Lao Deng!

"Humph! Since you want to die, I won't stop you. I'll leave this mission to you."

Senju Tobirama was immediately suffocated. He had tried to persuade him with good intentions, but he didn't expect that Uchiha Madara would be so ungrateful. So, let him go alone and die outside would be the best. That way, the position of the second generation will belong to our Senju clan again!
Finally, under the witness of several people, Senju Hashirama personally wrote the mission letter. Because it was a confidential matter, Senju Tobirama, the initiator of the mission, could not help but repeatedly remind him,
"For this mission, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Apart from the four of us present, this must not be disclosed to a fifth person."

"Cousin, you can go now without any worries. Remember to write a letter~"

Looking at the task book handed over by Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Gin smiled and elbowed Uchiha Madara beside him.

"No! Accepting this mission is equivalent to turning your back on the light and merging into the darkness. You can no longer have any connection with anyone other than the Hokage."

After hearing what Uchiha Gin said, Senju Tobirama reminded him again, and his serious expression did not seem fake.

"I naturally know that I will not have any contact with others until the mission is completed."

Even so, the tangled look in Uchiha Madara's eyes was still keenly captured by the mind-bending freak Senju Tobirama. He frowned slightly and spoke slowly,

"You'll be given three more days to think about it. If you don't want to do this mission, we allow you to give up."

"."

This time, Uchiha Madara did not respond stubbornly, but hung his head in silence, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Let's go, big brother. It looks like your assistant needs to take a few days off. You can't slack off at work~"

Three days should be enough time for Uchiha Madara to consider. Senju Tobirama stood up and said to Senju Hashirama beside him,
"Okay, Mada, take your time to think about it. I'm going to be busy now. If you have any difficulties, just tell me."

After saying that, Senju Tobirama placed his hand on Senju Hashirama, who had a worried look on his face. Accompanied by a blue light, the two brothers disappeared from the spot.

"Cousin, your clan meeting started too early~"

After the Senju brothers left, Uchiha Gin smacked his lips, and patted the silent Uchiha Madara with deep emotion.

"yes."

Uchiha Madara also felt a little regretful. Why did he suddenly tell his clan members that he was leaving? Now, even if he accepted the mission and went out reasonably, in the eyes of the clan members who did not know the truth, he became a selfish clan leader.

"The boat will straighten itself out when it reaches the bridge, let's eat first~"

Without continuing to act as a wise man after the event, Uchiha Gin stood up first and walked towards the backyard gate. Uchiha Madara sighed in his heart and followed him. He was also hungry.

"What are you having for lunch? Ramen?"

"I don't have much appetite, just eat something."

"Then let's have ramen. Wait for me to call Izuna over~"

The two brothers were chatting about what to eat for lunch, and they pushed open the heavy door.

"squeak~"

However, the scene outside the door made Uchiha Madara, who was already in a depressed mood, feel extremely depressed.

I saw that the corridor outside the door was filled with densely packed Uchiha members kneeling. My little cousin stood aside helplessly, shaking his head and sighing. It was obvious that this incident was not initiated by him.

The tribesmen who were kneeling on the ground waiting, when they saw the gate open, immediately put their foreheads to the ground and shouted in unison with almost roaring voices,

"Please don't leave, Chief!"

The sound was deafening, and the deep emotions contained in it made Uchiha Madara breathless. Looking down at the familiar faces, he was actually shaken for a moment.

"Master Patriarch! If you want to leave, take us with you!"

Someone shouted in the crowd and instantly won everyone's approval.

"Without the clan leader, there would be no Uchiha. We must stand together with the clan leader!"

He didn't expect that just a few words from his own would win the support of so many clansmen. These clansmen would rather give up the hard-earned peace and follow him. It would be a lie to say that Uchiha Madara was not moved.

"Quiet!"

Uchiha Madara, who had been recognized by his clan members, had already made up his mind at this moment. He must not disappoint his clan members' expectations of him. He wanted to become a Tailed Beast Knight, he wanted to defeat Hasila in a fair fight, and he wanted everyone in Konoha to wholeheartedly accept his title of Hokage.

"Master Patriarch! We..."

"Quiet! Is it useless for me, the clan leader, to say anything?"

Listening to the noisy shouts of his tribesmen, Uchiha Madara shouted,
Intimidated by Uchiha Madara's might, these tribesmen shut up obediently.
Uchiha Madara nodded in satisfaction, his eyes slowly turning a terrifying scarlet, and his cold gaze swept over the tribesmen who were looking expectant.

"Bringing you along as a burden will only delay my plan. Don't follow me, or you'll die."

In Kyuubi's recipe, braised descendants of Indra is ranked above charcoal-grilled pork.

"Snapped!"

Uchiha Gin, who had listened to the entire conversation, slapped his forehead speechlessly, his dead fish eyes filled with deep helplessness. If you can't speak, just shut up.

"I must give my cousin a copy of The Art of Language so that he can learn how to speak human language!" (End of this chapter)
