Comparing the two pillars, this pillar is too extreme!

And at this moment,

Hashirama Senju actually said...

The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan,

They actually possess the potential to rival the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?!

58. The Hyuga clan's attempt to win them over! Using their beauty as bait!

Although Madara Uchiha believed that the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan possessed the same potential as the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan,

This is highly questionable.

But since these are the words spoken by Hashirama Senju...

Then Madara Uchiha had no choice but to believe it.

Because from the very first day they met,

Many of the things that Hashirama Senju said that he found unbelievable came true one by one.

[Hiashi Hyuga: Are we... are we, the Hyuga clan, really that powerful?]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Hiashi... you should quickly discuss this with the elders of your clan to see if you've overlooked anything... Since the First Hokage has said so, he certainly wouldn't be speaking without reason...]

[Shimura Danzo: The Byakugan... can it be compared to the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?]

[Uchiha Madara: Ha... This mere Byakugan might not even be a match for the Uchiha clan's three-tomoe Sharingan, let alone the Mangekyou Sharingan, and the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which surpasses the Mangekyou Sharingan...]

[Minato Namikaze: I also remember... in the history of the Hyuga clan, there don't seem to be any particularly famous strong individuals...]

[Jiraiya: But since the First Hokage said so, there must be a reason for it. Perhaps he discovered something different in that other world...]

Orochimaru: It seems there's still so much I don't know about this world. I thought I knew enough...

"Speaking of which... that old guy from the Hyuga clan invited me to visit the Hyuga clan not long ago."

Hyuga Tenzo, the head of the Hyuga clan.

A few days ago, they invited Hashirama Senju to visit their Hyuga clan.

"Heh...that old guy...is he weaker now than he was a few years ago?"

"He's probably one of the few whose strength has actually regressed after becoming the clan leader..."

When the topic of the Hyuga Sky Burial came up, Madara Uchiha's mocking expression became even more pronounced.

Seeing the expression on his face, Hashirama Senju raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.

"Judging from your expression, it seems you've had dealings with him before?"

Madara Uchiha shrugged and gave his fair assessment of the Hyuga Sky Burial.

"I met this old man before I became the head of the Uchiha clan..."

"In the ninja world... there are always people comparing the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan to the Sharingan of our Uchiha clan."

"Out of my own curiosity, I wanted to know just how amazing their eye-rolling was."

"But when I got to the Hyuga clan, I was greatly disappointed..."

"Although the Hyuga clan is not weak, they do not have any truly top-tier experts."

"Especially that old guy, Hyuga Tenzo, is a master strategist! He has that unpleasant politician vibe..."

Even after Madara Uchiha became the head of the Uchiha clan,

However, he still disliked these political struggles.

Although I don't like it,

However, this does not mean that Madara Uchiha did not understand these things.

However, compared to fake political struggles,

Madara Uchiha was more focused on his own power!

In his eyes,

The power sought through these political struggles is nothing but castles in the air.

That was far less satisfying than his own cultivation, constantly becoming stronger!

[Minato Namikaze: As expected of Madara-senpai, he never gives up on becoming stronger, not even for a single second!!!]

[The Fourth Raikage: This is what a true ninja demon should look like!!! Strength is the foundation that determines everything. It seems I've neglected my training these past few years!!!]

[Onoki: Thank goodness not everyone is Madara Uchiha, otherwise it would be troublesome... The Third Hokage is fine as he is now!!]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Heh... Onoki, you don't need to be sarcastic... Aren't you just like me now? When you get old, we're all pretty much the same!!]

Orochimaru: It seems that the path to immortality that I've been pursuing is the right one!! Sarutobi-sensei, even as Hokage, once you enter old age, you're no different from an ordinary person... How ironic...

"How about... you come with me to pay a visit to the Hyuga clan?"

"In this way, perhaps we can open up more opportunities for your Uchiha clan..."

Hashirama Senju extended an invitation to Madara Uchiha, who was sitting to the side.

"...I think I'll pass. The Hyuga clan has already been there once..."

"I'm not particularly curious about them..."

"Besides... didn't I just have your cells transplanted?"

"I want to familiarize myself with this new power... I don't want to fall too far behind you in the future..."

Madara Uchiha extended his palm.

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju did not insist that Madara Uchiha go with him.

he knows,

Madara Uchiha had this kind of personality.

Regarding this kind of tedious family feud,

He wasn't really interested!

If it weren't for the fact that becoming the head of the Uchiha clan was the only way...

Only then can he realize his ideal.

Madara Uchiha probably wouldn't have become the head of the Uchiha clan!

for him,

After becoming the clan leader,

There are actually no special benefits.

It might even cause more harm than good!

The clan leader has so many trivial matters to deal with!

It even prevented Madara Uchiha from training properly!

Therefore,

He simply dumped all the family affairs, big and small, onto his younger brother, Uchiha Izuna.

He's become a hands-off manager!

……

"Hahaha!! Welcome, welcome!!!"

"Finally, I've met Clan Chief Hashirama!!!"

"I never imagined that Clan Chief Hashirama would be so much more refined than I thought!!!"

At the entrance to the Hyuga clan's ancestral home,

A middle-aged man with half-gray hair smiled and said to Hashirama Senju.

Looking at Hyuga Tenzō's fake smile,

Hashirama Senju finally understood why Madara Uchiha didn't want to come with him.

The smile on Hyuga Tenzo's face

Even Hashirama Senju felt a sense of unease!

Rather than saying Hyuga Tenzo looks like a ninja,

Rather,

Hyuga Tenzo looks like a politician!

This,

He's exactly the kind of person Madara Uchiha hated most, without exception!!!

"You're too kind, Hyuga clan leader."
