Hokage: Unable to persuade Madara, I chose to build my own ninja village.

Chapter 86 Tobirama Senju: Will Konoha perish if we don't listen to Madara Uchiha? Hashirama Senju: Hard to say!

Unify the ninja world?

The thought popped into Madara Uchiha's mind, and even he was shocked by this audacious idea.

The last time the ninja world was unified was a thousand years ago.

That was the era of Kaguya Otsutsuki!

She used her power, which was beyond her time, to forcibly unify the entire ninja world and become its queen. However, this period did not last long. Kaguya Otsutsuki was betrayed by her two sons, Hamura Otsutsuki and Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

After that.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki became a monk and took the name Sage of Six Paths, but he did not restore the old order of the ninja world.

The ninja world has been divided and fighting ever since, and now it consists of dozens or even hundreds of countries of varying sizes.

The concept of a unified empire has long since disappeared into the annals of history.

However, the Uchiha clan members have always possessed extraordinary wisdom.

Madara Uchiha was one of the best among them.

Even though the idea was quite shocking, Madara Uchiha thought it was very promising. If Hashirama supported him, he believed that even if there were many difficulties ahead, they could definitely accomplish this with their combined strength. It would just mean that a few more people would die.

However, for the sake of a longer-term future.

All of this should have been worthwhile.

"Compared to this small matter, I've thought of a more important problem that needs to be solved."

Once his thoughts returned to normal, Madara Uchiha felt countless gazes upon him. After quickly organizing his thoughts, he wanted to take this opportunity to share the brilliant solution he had just discovered—a solution that could resolve any potential future war crisis once and for all.

not good!

Tobirama Senju's keen senses allowed him to immediately detect that something was amiss.

Madara Uchiha, who is inherently evil, is up to no good!

"Regarding the conflict between Konoha and Akatsuki versus Kumogakure, thanks to Akatsuki's reckless actions, it could very well escalate into a war. This is no small matter, and that's why we're holding this emergency meeting today to discuss it!"

"Uchiha Madara, don't bring up anything unrelated to today's meeting!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Tobirama Senju decided to slam on the brakes, determined not to let Madara Uchiha say anything next.

This is definitely not a good thing!

"Hmph, a cheap trick!"

Madara Uchiha showed Tobirama Senju the complete opposite of what he expected.

The matter of Konoha rests on my and Hashirama's shoulders.

You're just a mediocre person, yet you dare to spout nonsense here?

"you"

"Garlic birds, garlic birds, life isn't easy for them!"

"Everyone can speak and express their opinions at today's meeting. Since Ban has something to say, let him say it."

Tobirama Senju's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. Hashirama Senju, who was sitting in the main seat, quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, subtly siding with Madara Uchiha while appearing impartial.

"snort"

Looking at Tobirama Senju in front of him and listening to Hashirama's words in Tobirama's ear, Madara Uchiha's lips curled up, and a smug smile appeared on his face. He even couldn't help but hum softly.

Madara Uchiha's arrogant expression caused Tobirama Senju to clench his fists tightly under the table, his usually expressionless face contorting in pain. Hashirama Senju's blatant betrayal, coupled with the continuous attacks he had received, broke Tobirama's defenses.

You never listen to me, you never listen to me, and you just disappear all the time. I never see you working in the office. I'm the one who's been working so hard to keep Konoha afloat.

You're not supporting me at such a crucial time.

Do you even have an older brother like you?

In a rare outburst in the conference room, he roared and cursed, "Brother, go ahead and stir things up! Stir things up, make Konoha a mess, let Uchiha Makoto's scheme succeed, drag Konoha into the quagmire of war! I'll just risk my life with you!"

The surrounding ninja clan leaders, seeing Tobirama Senju's outburst, all fell silent, trembling with fear. They had only come for a meeting, but this trip had been worthwhile! They had witnessed such a thrilling scene!

Now it's obvious to everyone.

The Hokage's attitude still leans towards Madara.

"Lord Tobirama, what a pity!"

"What is he usually doing at this time?"

"It's nothing more than processing documents in the office and calculating expenses. Every day, I work myself to the bone, working diligently and cautiously, as if walking on thin ice. And when it comes to crucial meetings, the Hokage is still biased."

"Let's keep watching the show!"

After a moment of reflection, the ninja clan chief remained silent, handing the stage of the meeting over to the three people before him. They would remain spectators.

The conflict between the Uchiha and Senju clans is not something they can interfere with; rashly getting involved would likely result in them being torn to pieces.

Even the Hyuga clan, one of the strongest ninja clans in Konoha, is no exception.

The head of the Hyuga clan looked aloof and indifferent. He didn't care who was the Hokage. As long as the Hyuga clan could hold the throne of the third largest family in Konoha, no matter whether the future Hokage of Konoha was from the Uchiha clan or the Senju clan, they would win over and pay attention to the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan never publicly takes sides, never sticks to one path to their death, and it doesn't matter who the Hokage is; they side with whoever wins. This is the Hyuga clan's way of surviving in Konoha.

"Tobirama, don't be angry, don't be anxious. I didn't mean anything by it. I just don't want to see you and Madara fighting in the meeting. As the saying goes, 'A family with a loyal son will not ruin its family, and a country with a loyal minister will not perish.' This principle applies to the ninja village as well."

Seeing his brother lose control and become defensive, Hashirama Senju quickly began to say kind words to calm Tobirama Senju down. With his intelligence temporarily back online, he even quoted a famous saying from the son of a famous daimyo from decades ago.

"Oh, brother, you mean if we don't let Uchiha Madara speak today, Konoha will perish?"

Tobirama Senju's anger showed no signs of abating, and he retorted to his older brother, who was always biased.

"Hard to say!"

As Hashirama Senju said this, he was only temporarily regaining his senses, but his personality remained as straightforward as ever, and he still liked to show favoritism.

"Then I'll let Madara Uchiha speak!"

"Big brother, you'll regret this!"

For a moment, Tobirama Senju seemed to have lost all means of resistance, and now he had to sit down and calm himself down.

Otherwise, he felt he could be driven to his death by his older brother.

then

Tobirama Senju returned to his seat and then simply gave the speaking position to Madara Uchiha, wanting to see what kind of nonsense this naive and evil Madara Uchiha would spout.

What could be so important that he's talking about?

"snort!"

Madara Uchiha snorted coldly, completely ignoring Tobirama Senju's impotent rage just now. He stood up from his seat and walked straight to the podium, intending to express his ambition to unify the ninja world with Konoha.

In this way, the possibility of another war breaking out in the ninja village era will be nipped in the bud. Hashirama, you will support me, right?

As Madara Uchiha stood on the podium, facing the clan leaders below, he thought to himself that Hashirama would definitely support his idea. All of this was for Konoha and for a longer-term peace in the ninja world!

"The issues discussed in today's meeting regarding the conflict between Konoha, Akatsuki, and Kumogakure are, in my opinion, trivial matters. Compared to that, what I'm about to discuss is a matter of great importance concerning Konoha and the future of the ninja world!"

"In the past, during the Warring States period, misunderstandings and conflicts arose between various ninja clans due to missions, eventually leading to chaotic wars between the clans. Now, each ninja clan has established its own village and joined a ninja village. However, only about two years have passed, and conflicts have arisen between ninja villages due to missions. If this continues, the ninja villages will inevitably break out into war like in the Warring States period."

"."

Madara Uchiha roughly analyzed the root causes of the wars between various ninja clans during the Warring States period, and then compared it to the current ninja village era, suggesting that the wars had only been postponed, not truly disappeared.

The current conflicts between Konoha, Akatsuki, and Kumogakure are the best proof of this.

Tobirama Senju had a furrowed brow.

He has no idea what Madara Uchiha is thinking. Even if what Madara Uchiha is saying is the truth, what is Madara Uchiha trying to achieve by saying these things?

The expressions of the ninja representatives present gradually became solemn. Even they had to admit that what Uchiha Madara said was true: war was inevitable, and the wars to come would be even more brutal and massive than those of the Warring States period.

"Ban, what you said makes sense. Have you come up with a solution?"

Hashirama Senju was a master of the straight man role.

Following Madara Uchiha's line of thought, he felt that Madara Uchiha was absolutely right.

"Hashirama and I founded Konoha for the sake of peace in the ninja world, but now the ninja world has only achieved temporary peace, and a larger-scale war will break out in the future. Therefore, in order to solve this problem once and for all."

"I've come up with a brilliant idea: unify the ninja world!"

"The current conflict between Konoha, Akatsuki, and Kumogakure presents an excellent opportunity. We can first unite with Akatsuki to eliminate Kumogakure, and then the ninja villages of the other major powers. After eliminating these major ninja villages, only the minor, insignificant ones will remain. We won't need to exert much effort on these minor ninja villages. According to my estimate, the plan to unify the ninja world can be completed in just a few years."

"."

After laying the groundwork, Madara Uchiha spoke his mind, revealing his solution in a way that was sure to shock.

Since wars will still break out between ninja villages, let's wipe out all the ninja villages in the ninja world, leaving only those willing to surrender to Konoha. This process won't take long; we can probably clean up the entire ninja world in a few years.

This is only Madara Uchiha's most conservative estimate; if he and Hashirama were to work together, it could be even faster.

Madara Uchiha had not yet finished speaking.

The ninja representatives attending the meeting were all dumbfounded, their faces showing expressions of horror. "Unifying the ninja world"—what an arrogant and domineering plan!

Over the past thousand years, countless powerful ninjas have emerged in the ninja world, each dominating the ninja world for a time. However, unifying the ninja world is something they dare not even dream of, let alone do.

This is insane, absolutely insane!

The Uchiha are truly the Uchiha; they can come up with anything.

"Just as I expected."

"Madara Uchiha is planning something big!"

"Uchiha Madara is really too crazy."

"How is it possible to unify the ninja world in just a few years?"

As Tobirama Senju listened to Madara Uchiha's speech, he was truly shocked by Madara's arrogant plan, which further reinforced his preconceived notions about the Uchiha clan.

Even now, he doesn't have any thoughts about "unifying the ninja world," because such a thing is not something that can be done on a whim.

Tobirama Senju, who was busy dealing with Konoha's internal affairs all day long, understood even more how difficult it was to establish a unified ninja village. Task summarization, expenditure of funds, talent training—the affairs of just Konoha alone were enough to keep him extremely busy.

This is just the most trivial problem.

He acknowledged that Madara Uchiha was indeed powerful, but this involved the entire ninja world. Relying solely on force to conquer would only provoke too much opposition and rebellion, ultimately leading to boundless chaos and disorder, as well as countless killings.

During this process

How many ninjas and civilians will die in the ninja world?

Tobirama Senju felt that Madara Uchiha probably hadn't even considered this matter.

Besides

Unifying the ninja world involves more than just the individual ninja villages.

Because behind the ninja villages are the daimyo of various countries!

If Konoha wants to unify the ninja world, it cannot avoid this issue. It will definitely need to negotiate with the daimyo of various countries and persuade them one by one. Without the daimyo's consent, who knows how much trouble will arise.

This isn't something that can be accomplished in just a few years!

Could it be that Madara Uchiha not only wants to destroy the ninja villages, but also the daimyo?

This was overturning the rules of the entire ninja world. Tobirama Senju didn't dare to think any further. Just thinking about it made his scalp tingle.

"How can ninjas attack daimyo?"

This kind of ideology has been imprinted in the hearts of almost all ninjas in the ninja world. Except for madmen and the most heinous villains, no one would do such a thing.

Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju would both consider such a thing to be blasphemous and a subversion of the rules of the ninja world. The clan leaders present today, as well as the ninjas from other villages, would not allow such a thing to happen. Even Madara Uchiha probably hasn't had such thoughts yet; he hasn't become that "Avenger" yet.

"This is absolutely ridiculous!"

"Madara Uchiha never even considered how complicated this matter truly is! He's just talking so confidently on stage, claiming he can unify the ninja world within a few years?"

"Brainless, just plain brainless!"

Tobirama Senju internally criticized Madara Uchiha, then shifted his attention to his older brother.

Brother, I told him not to speak.

You insist!

How are we going to salvage this situation now?!

First, stack armor.

What I wrote was just fan fiction.

Personally, I think Madara Uchiha may have proposed unifying the ninja world in the original storyline, but probably not many people would have agreed with him.

It can be said that everyone in the room is an opposition party.

First of all, the ninja world did not have the concept of a unified empire. Qin destroyed the six states and initially established a unified empire, but it was forgotten after only a few years. It was the Liu family that strengthened this concept for four hundred years. Even then, the initial system was a combination of prefecture and county system and feudal system.

The idea of ​​unification is very difficult to establish, and the person who first proposed it would only be considered a madman and schemer.

There are also problems that the various daimyo cannot escape, and these are even more difficult to solve.

Because this comes from a powerful force from AB.

Judging from the original plot...

The Daimyo is so high and mighty. In one movie, he even directly gave orders to Tsunade, and without solving anything, he simply destroyed Konoha. Tsunade looked terrified and then went back to figure out how to carry out the Daimyo's orders.

Therefore, only madmen and extremely wicked individuals (such as the Akatsuki organization, which is full of rogue ninja) would attack a daimyo.

Hashirama Senju was definitely an opponent, that goes without saying.

Even Tobirama Senju was the same. He might have fantasized about unifying the ninja world, but the issue of the daimyo was something he couldn't avoid. Even if he was a cunning old fox, the limitations of the world itself had already narrowed his vision, and he wouldn't have any wicked thoughts about the daimyo.
