Ninja World Live Stream: Was the Sixth Hokage really that powerful?

Behind him was Hashirama Senju, who was skilled in Wood Release. The plant scent couldn't be hidden from him at all, which was why he had never dared to get close to the Senju. Damn it!

His nemesis!

Damn it, this reanimated version of Madara Uchiha has the Rinnegan, which he created himself in order to create the strongest version of Madara. He never expected that it would backfire on him.

Damn screen!

[33L: Black Zetsu is truly the same as Elder Danzo; they are both the root of all evil.]

Danzo, drinking sake with Sarutobi in the Pure Land: "..." Why are you bringing me up again?!

Danzo and Hiruzen fought to the death, and they perished together. This pair of light and darkness, who had always been inseparable, eventually disappeared together into the long river of history.

Looking back carefully, what was the purpose of all those wrong things I did all those years ago? It was all because of Tobirama-sensei's words, "Monkey, from today onwards, you are the Hokage."

For the self-sacrifice that I couldn't muster the courage to do at the time.

If you're one step behind then, you'll always be one step behind.

He failed to become Hokage; he lost to Sarutobi throughout his life; and even after his death, he remained infamous and will be remembered for his infamy for eternity.

What can you do if you're not convinced? He's already dead... Thinking about it carefully, he was indeed a cowardly and selfish person. He said that ninjas were unsung heroes who sacrificed themselves to protect the light.

But every time it came to his self-sacrifice, he would hesitate, back down, and become cowardly.

These repeated missed opportunities turned him into nothing more than a cowardly and selfish old man.

Shimura Danzo's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly. His face, covered in wrinkles like orange peel, curved into a self-deprecating smile. He tilted his head back, wanting to drink a glass of wine alone, but was stopped by Sarutobi, whose glass gently touched his.

"We are all sinners in history, sinners of Konoha." Hiruzen's smile was also filled with deep remorse. "However, I am truly gratified to see Konoha getting better and better."

"Hmph." Danzo also drank the bitter wine, carrying with him infamy and disgrace.

[34L: Don't say that. Black Zetsu was just being filial. He just wanted to rescue his mother. What did he do wrong?]

"That's right, I just wanted to save my mother! Why are you idiots stopping me?!" Black Zetsu, forced to flee in all directions, roared angrily with his eerie yellow beady eyes.

He was filled with hatred; his thousand-year plan had come to naught at the last moment!

How hateful! Absolutely hateful!!

[35L: You're amazing, you're such a saint. Why don't you just turn yourself into a White Zetsu to fulfill Black Zetsu's filial piety?]

[36L: Did the person in post #34 forget to add the Sixth Hokage meme?]

[37L: No, I genuinely think Black Zetsu is filial. Unlike the Sage of Six Paths and his brother, those two ingrates who actually sealed away their own mother!]

[38L: Wow, once again witnessing the diversity of human species.]

[39L: To be fair, the Sage of Six Paths did have some shortcomings. He was too arbitrary in sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, without any communication or anything. But if he hadn't sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki back then, this continent might have become a breeding ground for White Zetsu long ago.]

(Naruto Uzumaki: But why did the Sage of Six Paths seal Kaguya Otsutsuki?) I still don't understand after watching for so long.

Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Ten-Tails, White Zetsu, the nursery, the Otsutsuki's nutrients... what are all these things?! I have absolutely no idea!

(Uchiha Sasuke: Super idiot Naruto, it's simple, right? If she wasn't sealed, she would become a White Zetsu. It means that Kaguya Otsutsuki wanted to turn all of humanity into White Zetsu, turning our land into a nursery for producing White Zetsu. So, in order to prevent this from happening, the Sage of Six Paths sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki.)

(Kakashi Hatake: Wow, Sasuke's theoretical knowledge has improved a lot.)

(Uchiha Sasuke: Hmph.)

With Itachi tutoring him, these things were incredibly easy for him.

(Naruto Uzumaki: Hmm, I roughly understand now. So, the Sage of Six Paths was a good person.)

(Minato Namikaze: The Sage of Six Paths is the legendary originator of chakra, and in the stories that have been passed down, he has always been portrayed as a positive figure.)

(Jiraiya: That's just what ninjas say, hahaha. To ordinary people, the Sage of Six Paths is a demon.)

(Naruto Uzumaki: Eh? Why?)

(Jiraiya: It is said that the Sage of Six Paths created ninjas. Ordinary people believe that ninjas brought about war, so they regard the Sage of Six Paths as the source of war.)

(Sakura Haruno: So the world as seen by ordinary people is completely different from the world as seen by ninjas?)

[40L: Indeed, enjoying the blessings of our ancestors while cursing them as ungrateful wretches is like eating from a bowl and then cursing its cook.]

[41L Poster: The Sage of Six Paths is just a human being, and humans make mistakes. His distrust of his mother led to the outbreak of a potentially avoidable great war;]

She then transferred her fear of her mother onto her eldest son, causing a rift between them and leading to a thousand-year-long cycle of reincarnation and struggle between the eldest and youngest sons.

He certainly wasn't a good son, nor a good father, but we don't really have the right to criticize him, after all, he was the one who created all the chakra. Without the Sage of Six Paths, there probably wouldn't be any ninjas today.

(Onoki from the Two Scales: Wait, Mother?! What does that mean?)

(Naruto Uzumaki: What do you mean?)

(Onoki: Kid, don't mimic me.)

(Naruto Uzumaki: I have nothing to say!)

(Kirabi: Okay, okay, okay, your verbal tic is so annoying.)

(Naruto Uzumaki: Huh? What did you say? What's wrong with my verbal tic?)

(Nara Shikaku: Interrupting. The gist is that Kaguya Otsutsuki is the mother of the Sage of Six Paths... I see. Since she's the mother of the Sage of Six Paths, it's no wonder she's so powerful.)

(Tobirama Senju: This is the first time I've heard about the Sage of Six Paths' private affairs. So his surname is Otsutsuki. Does the Otsutsuki clan refer to this family, or are there many more Otsutsuki clans?)

(Jiraiya: Why does the Sage of Six Paths sound like trash?)

(Shukaku: Although it's not quite that bad, the old man of the Six Paths really wasn't a good father. People who are too biased can't be good fathers.)

"You're biased towards Kurama, so I'll secretly ruin your reputation," Shukaku chuckled wickedly inside Gaara's body.

Sasuke Uchiha immediately thought of his father, Fugaku Uchiha, and his mouth puffed out in anger. His father used to constantly praise Itachi, saying things like, "He truly is my son."

He was always ignored. So that's how it is. Dad wasn't a good dad either.

"What are you thinking about?" Sasuke felt a flick on his forehead and rubbed his forehead, looking up at Itachi with displeasure and glaring at him fiercely.

Uchiha Itachi just looked at his younger brother with doting eyes. His little temper was back, and he was acting a bit like he did when he was a child. Sasuke, he hasn't changed much all this time.

He felt a surge of affection; it was good that Sasuke grew up like this.

[42L: Is having ninjas a good thing? Wasn't all this war caused by ninjas?]

[43L Solution: The comment above is narrow-minded. Does that mean there would be no wars without ninjas? That's impossible. It's just that daimyo and nobles shifted the focus of war to ninjas.]

[44L: Yes, ultimately, wherever there are people, there will be war. Even without ninjas, war would just unfold in a different form; it would never stop.]

[45L: That's why we should cherish and protect peace. That's the meaning of our hard work and learning here today.]

[46L: Well said!]

[47L: Wow! Suddenly the reasons I gave for studying seem so noble, when all I really needed was to make a living.]

[48L: Hahahaha, it's understandable to want to make a living. If everyone can have enough to eat, then war won't break out so easily.]

I've been writing for ages and still haven't gotten to the point; I'm still the same person who always goes off-topic.

Chapter 102 The Theory of Ninja Tools (4) Who are brothers? Who is whose reincarnation?

[49L Poster: Getting back to the main topic, the birth of the ninja tool theory begins with the split of the Ninja Sect, and the split of the Ninja Sect can be traced back to the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths.]

[50L: I know! Indra and Asura.]

[51L: The ancestors of the Uchiha and the Senju!]

(Hashirama Senju: Eh? Eh? Eh?)

(Uchiha Izuna: Whose ancestor is this?!)

(Uchiha Tajima: Ridiculous! How could the ancestor of the Uchiha and the ancestor of the Senju be brothers?!)

(Senju Butsuma: Heh, who wants to be brothers with the evil Uchiha? We are the Thousand Hands of Love.)

(Hashirama Senju: Wow! Madara and I are brothers! We really are brothers, waaaaaah, Madara! We were brothers a thousand years ago!)

(Tobirama Senju: ...) I know you really want to be brothers with Madara Uchiha, but can you please not make it so obvious? And you're so blatantly slapping your father in the face! Doesn't your father have any dignity?!

(Uchiha Madara: Two mutually exclusive forces, yet united as one... The Uchiha's Yin Release and the Senju's Yang Release... No wonder.)

He said it was too much of a coincidence that the powers of the Uchiha and Senju were both mutually exclusive and complementary.

The ancestors of the Uchiha and Senju clans were brothers, so what caused their falling out?

He curled his lips into a smirk, staring at the screen with a mocking look in his eyes. Let him see what all these centuries of conflict and war were all for.

[52L's Answer: During the Ninshu era, ninjas held a very high status. This was likely because the Sage of Six Paths helped rebuild many places during his world tours, leading people to admire and aspire to the Ninshu sect because of him. Of course, there were also a few who strongly opposed the Ninshu sect.]

[Post #53: Ninjas during the Ninshu era did not accept employment from daimyo or nobles. They simply trained within the Ninshu's territory, so the term "tool" is inappropriate; they lived for themselves.]

[54L Problem Solver: That's right, the problem lies after the Ninja Clan split.]

[55L: So why did the Ninja Clan split up?!]

[56L Problem Solver: In short, it's a dispute over inheritance rights.]

(Uchiha Madara: Heh.)

Was it really just a matter of inheritance that led to centuries of war in later generations? Indeed, the greed and ambition of people in this world are endless.

War is inevitable; wherever there are people, there will be struggle, even in the Ninja Sect, which is hailed as the most desirable place for peace.

Seeing Madara's mocking and pessimistic expression, Hashirama's eyes dimmed for a moment before he broke into a hearty smile. "Madara, the struggle may never end, but the vision of peace will be passed down."

"With the first generation fighting for peace, there will be a second, a third, a fourth... Trust in our descendants."

“At least so far, we’ve seen Kakashi do a great job.” He reached out and patted Madara on the shoulder, trying to comfort him.

Madara Uchiha merely twitched the corner of his mouth. "You're still so naive."

He then remained silent, staring intently at the screen with a gloomy expression.

[57L: We learned something from that history. The Sage of Six Paths was really baffling on this issue. He actually wanted to pass the position of Ninja Sect to his younger son when his eldest son was very capable and had not committed any misconduct. No wonder the eldest son was furious.]

[58L: Agreed! In those days, primogeniture was basic common sense. If the throne were to pass to the second son without a legitimate reason, it would definitely cause trouble. No wonder the Ninja Sect split up.]

[59L's Solution: I recommend you check out this niche documentary, "Ninja Cult." It mentions that the Sage of Six Paths, due to his fear of the Sharingan, initially harbored feelings of rejection towards his eldest son. However, because his second son was kinder and better at uniting people, he gradually sided with him.]

(Uchiha Tajima: What?) Why would the Sage of Six Paths be afraid of the Sharingan? Aren't we descendants of the Sage of Six Paths?!

The Uchiha were extremely indignant. "Isn't the Sage of Six Paths' Rinnegan even more terrifying than the Sharingan? Why are you afraid of the Sharingan?"
