Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

Chapter 120 The answer is right before your eyes

To protect the peace of Konoha and the ninja world, Hashirama Senju killed his former best friend.

[Afterwards, they joined forces with the Uzumaki clan, who possessed powerful sealing abilities, to seal the Nine-Tails. Subsequently, Hashirama Senju married Mito Uzumaki, the princess of the Uzumaki clan, making Mito the first Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails.]

Naruto was taken aback.

But then, I saw Fugaku Uchiha's notes.

[Uchiha Fugaku: The Land of Whirlpools possessed powerful sealing techniques, a level of expertise that was unmatched at the time. Other ninja villages even had to ask them to seal their tailed beasts.]

【Om—】

Naruto's entire body trembled.

【sharp!】

That's amazing!

[This First Hokage had a very deep scheme!]

Even sealing techniques rely on Konoha.

How could the other four great ninja villages possibly cause trouble in front of Konoha?!

Ino Yamanaka: "Why is everyone so quiet?"

Uchiha Izuna: Hmph, that's why that Uzumaki girl just said that the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools is related to everyone.

Uchiha Izuna: That clan is indeed very powerful. They are distant relatives of the Senju and have equally strong physiques. They also possess sealing techniques that few people in the ninja world knew at the time. Even the strongest of us, the Uchiha and Senju, had to be cautious with their sealing techniques.

Kushina Uzumaki: "Just wait, the Land of Whirlpools will be rebuilt under Naruto's leadership!"

Kushina Uzumaki: "You all ate so much back then, you'll all have to throw it all up in the end!"

The chat room fell into an eerie silence once again.

The Uzumaki and Senju clans are distant relatives, both skilled in sealing techniques. The clan head, Uzumaki Ashina, founded the Uzushiogakure (Whirlpool Village) in the Land of Whirlpools using powerful sealing techniques, making him the founder of Konoha's sealing techniques. The red whirlpool printed on the back of Konoha ninja uniforms today is the Uzumaki clan crest.

Seeing this, Naruto understood the origin of his surname.

[Not the Senju, but a distant relative of the Senju, from the Uzumaki clan, who also possess formidable physiques.]

Naruto took a deep breath.

Suppressing my inner excitement.

He finally found out.

However, Naruto soon became puzzled again.

The Uzumaki clan all have red hair.

[Her bloodline is extremely strong; even if she intermarries with other ninja clans, she will still have red hair.]

Upon seeing this, Naruto instinctively looked at his hair.

[Blonde hair.]

[The Golden Flash... Minato Namikaze... Namikaze? Is it a very powerful ninja clan, with a very strong bloodline?]

Soon, Naruto's doubts were resolved.

[Uchiha Fugaku: The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, made the Senju clan members abandon the Senju surname and form their own families.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Even Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, and Nawaki did not inherit the Senju surname.]

[“I see. If it’s the Senju clan, they can indeed suppress the Uzumaki clan bloodline within me, causing my hair to turn golden.”]

"That... Minato Namikaze should be called Minato Senju."

[But, Tsunade... is she one of the legendary Sannin? Oh, right, she also has blonde hair.]

"Lady Tsunade, Naruto with black-rimmed glasses mentioned you~!" Shizune's eyes lit up.

"So what if you brought it up? Why are you so happy about it?" Tsunade rolled her eyes at her.

Big fat sheep!

These three words come to mind for many people.

[“I’m worried about being at odds with the Uchiha clan, and I’m worried that my clansmen will become unscrupulous once I take power…”]

Having learned the information just now, Naruto had a basic understanding of Hashirama Senju and subconsciously started thinking in that direction.

"Fortunately, otherwise, before the Uchiha clan was wiped out, there would probably have been the Senju clan's extermination as well."

[Then comes a record of some minor details.]

Tobirama Senju founded the Ninja Academy.

[Various ideologies, etc.]

[He also created the Dark Division.]

[Looking at Tobirama Senju's information.]

Naruto nodded repeatedly. Hashirama Senju's younger brother seemed quite formidable as well.

Furthermore, they developed so many ninjutsu techniques.

After training his first batch of talented individuals, Tobirama Senju, due to political reasons, took on six disciples.

[Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Kagami Uchiha, Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, Torifu Akimichi.]

Naruto silently memorized the names of several people, then continued flipping through the pages.

[18th year of Konoha.]

With the death of Hashirama Senju, the peace treaty between the five great nations collapsed.

【"really!"】

[“But Konoha shouldn’t be so passive, right?”]

[The Hidden Cloud Village launched the first attack, with a large number of ninja invading the Land of Fire.]

War has broken out between Iwagakure and Kirigakure.

The First Shinobi World War has broken out!

【Is the Hidden Cloud Village launching an attack?】

[“Other villages have also started fighting... It seems the other four great nations aren't a united front either, otherwise Konoha would have been destroyed long ago.”]

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, led his elite forces into battle.

The Land of Wind has a sparse population, barren land, and a weak economy; therefore, it did not participate extensively in this war.

[Things only improved after the Second Kazekage took office. The One-Tailed Shukaku was put into combat, and the Second Kazekage developed a series of puppet ninjutsu that could replace the Sand Village ninjas. From then on, the Land of Wind ushered in a qualitative leap.]

【"puppet?"】

Naruto took a deep breath. Sure enough, with the historical documents available, he was no longer a clueless newbie.

[20th year of Konoha.]

As the war progressed, divisions arose within Kumogakure, with the pro-war and conservative factions holding differing opinions. Ultimately, the Second Raikage decided to establish a ceasefire and alliance with Konoha.

[Is a ceasefire and alliance really that effective?]

[It's just talk.]

However, an unexpected change occurred.

During the alliance ceremony, the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers staged a coup, killing the Second Raikage and injuring Tobirama Senju. The Konoha members escaped in the chaos but were pursued by the Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

[Afterwards, the second-generation leader tested his subordinates' strategic thinking and ability to act.]

Hiruzen Sarutobi was the first to step forward, and ultimately, he was appointed the Third Hokage by the Second Hokage.

Tobirama Senju: "I deeply regret what I did!"

Tobirama Senju: "We should have agreed back then!"

Uchiha Izuna: An excuse for incompetence.

Tobirama Senju: "..."

Hashirama Senju: Madara... Was I wrong?

Originally intended to protect his family, he ended up protecting Konoha.

Hashirama Senju could already see what would happen in the future.

Madara Uchiha: I don't know.

Madara Uchiha simply responded with a flat tone.

【This shouldn't be happening!】

[Has the Second Hokage's fighting power declined so drastically?]

"With the Flying Thunder God Technique around, how could Kinkaku and Ginkaku, who have obtained some of the Great Fox's chakra, possibly kill them?"

[“And…the Second Hokage developed so many ninjutsu, it’s impossible for him to be like this…could it be that because he developed too many ninjutsu, coupled with his age, his strength declined so drastically?”]

[However, the Second Hokage seems to be the one who truly embodies the Will of Fire.]

"Hmph, that old man is just using the Will of Fire as a weapon for brainwashing."

Naruto chuckled.

[Uchiha Kagami ultimately died in the First Shinobi World War.]

Upon seeing this, Naruto sensed something was amiss.

The Second Hokage was very wary and vigilant towards the Uchiha clan.

But he seems to treat his own disciples quite well.

[Because of the Uchiha's bloodline ability?]

[This point wasn't recorded in detail, so Naruto could only suppress his doubts for the time being.]

[But if that's the case, could it be that his disciples over-interpreted the Second Hokage's attitude towards the Uchiha clan?]

[Was that what led to the annihilation of the Uchiha clan?]

[That's not right either. The fate of the Uchiha clan was already sealed when Madara Uchiha left Konoha.]
