I and countless versions of myself simultaneously travel through time.

A month later, Ye Yan stayed in his room, focusing on his daily cultivation and developing new cell superposition layers.

Meanwhile, the mental state of the three seniors in the mental space was being tossed around by him, making them extremely anxious. Whenever Ye Yan encountered any difficulties in his cultivation, he would run to each of them for advice, leaving the three of them wanting to curse but having no choice but to teach him.

Within the shared space.

Zombie Ye Yan said with a relaxed expression, "I've finished speedrunning on my end, and Uncle Jiu has successfully become the sect leader. Now I only have one thing left to do: turn myself into a zombie."

Along his journey across the country, he first defeated all the masters from various sects of Maoshan, slapping their faces until no one dared to utter a sound, and then pushed through all the important plot points of Uncle Nine's storyline.

After that, he focused on finding those who refined royal zombies. When he found them, he refined them on the spot and used them as resources to nourish his own flying zombies.

Ye Yan from A Certain Magical Index, sporting the weary face of a typical office worker, said, "Well... I'm still doing research every day, just a dutiful office worker. To be honest, it's a bit boring, but I reckon the Hanging Man is getting his eye on me soon. Also, I've changed careers; I've become a teacher at Tokiwadai."

Ye Yan, the Naruto, said with a hint of anticipation, "I'll just wait here and farm gold coins in peace. By the way, I'm planning to become a capitalist."

The mysterious Ye Yan slowly spoke: "I'll remain the same here, acting as your angel investor. Occasionally, I'll sacrifice some of Zhao Kaiming's relatives to aid my cultivation."

After sharing their Fate Points, the group logged off.

Ye Yan, the Hokage, regained his composure and stepped into his mental space.

This past month has been a month of pleasant surprises, with his Destiny Points skyrocketing to over two thousand. Now he can directly control the direction of Konoha.

At this moment, the month-long period of forbearance has come to an end.

"Senior Madara, I respect you in terms of seniority, but in terms of skill level, the future is uncertain."

Ye Yan was quite accommodating, mainly because Madara's teaching and training were truly on the right track. Madara greatly expanded Ye Yan's thinking on the nature transformation and refinement methods of the Uchiha clan's Fire Release ninjutsu, as well as the specific research on Fire Release.

Madara sighed, "Ye Yan, your quirks are quite typical of the Uchiha clan. It's been a month and you're still listening to our bullying videos before bed, and you even saw Tobirama getting tortured to death."

Tobirama Senju fell completely silent.

He fell silent, but a heavy question kept churning in his mind: was there any meaning to that rearguard action back then?

If he had chosen to live back then and go back to see Mito one more time, would things have been completely different?

This thought was like a thorn stuck in his heart, and he couldn't pull it out no matter what.

His thoughts involuntarily turned to Hiruzen Sarutobi, the third generation whom he had personally chosen. How exactly did he manage to govern the village into such a state?

Logically speaking, such a big mistake shouldn't have happened.

In Tobirama's view, the job of Hokage is actually very simple: being good at fighting is the foundation, balancing the forces of various ninja clans is the key, and with a Machiavellian approach, the job is basically secure.

Such simple political work shouldn't be hard to learn, right?

Is it possible that someone is so stupid they can't even manage a business?

Can't even a monkey do this simple thing? I taught it everything I knew.

Thinking about this, Tobirama couldn't help but feel ironic.

His thoughts are actually no different from his older brother Hashirama's saying, "Wood Release can be created with just two claps of the hands." They are both just talking without understanding the situation. But what would other people think?

He then thought of his three disciples: Orochimaru not only betrayed the village, but also used the Impure World Reincarnation to summon the Fourth Hokage, which was a slap in the face to Konoha. Jiraiya did not betray the village, but he took in a disciple like Nagato, and did nothing at the crucial moment.

Not to mention Tsunade, she was completely led astray by her older brother, becoming addicted to gambling and drinking, and even unwilling to take on the responsibility of Hokage.

Danzo's situation was even more frustrating for Tobirama. Although Danzo was nominally his disciple, none of the dirty deeds he committed were respectable.

However, one thing surprised him: the Uchiha clan of this era had not yet been wiped out, and that kid named Ye Yan seemed to have the ability to stop it all.

Tobirama had to admit that Ye Yan, this Uchiha, was both mad and not mad. Despite being a guy who had been reborn from the future, he was able to remain calm in this situation, which was indeed quite remarkable.

Izuna: "I have no objection."

"Alright, it's been a month, and it's good that everyone has calmed down. Since that's the case, I won't hold back anymore. It's time for Konoha to change."

Ye Yan entered the Naga Shrine. Recently, Ye Yan of the Uchiha clan has become quite famous. The Uchiha clan meeting has also started these past few days, and his Destiny Points have begun to accumulate. This has prompted Ye Yan to start fighting. The Uchiha clan meeting is just in time.

Madara chuckled, his tone full of disappointment: "So the Uchiha are really getting worse every day, they really are no good."

When he made his assessment of the Uchiha clan in later generations, he found it utterly uninteresting.

However, Ban believed Ye Yan's identity. After all, someone who cultivated for twenty hours a day and only slept for four hours was already an extraordinary person among extraordinary people.

Moreover, no one in this era knows about the existence of Black Zetsu. If they hadn't seen the future with their own eyes, who could have made up such a thing?

However, more than anything else, Madara now wants to exchange taijutsu techniques with that guy named Might Guy. Those pure and unadulterated taijutsu practitioners are the ones who truly interest him.

Izuna stood there speechless.

Why was he the only one who wasn't resurrected through Edo Tensei?

Everyone else had been dragged out, but he was the only one lying quietly in the grave.

They won't take me with them when they raid?!

Madara casually replied, "Maybe it's because there are too many people being resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and it wasn't your turn. Or maybe your remains haven't been found, who knows?"

Tobirama, his face darkening, finally couldn't help but speak: "Shouldn't you let me stand up now?"

Ban's foot was on his head, but he didn't budge.

"Shut up."

Tobirama's face darkened further.

I've never been so humiliated, being trampled underfoot by the Uchiha!

Meanwhile, the Uchiha clan meeting was being held in earnest.

The clansmen sat together in a solemn atmosphere, the elders all with stern faces, as if they were discussing some matter of life and death.

The wooden door was tightly closed, shutting out all the noise.

then.

"Bang!"

With a loud crash, the entire wooden door was kicked and shattered, sending wood chips flying and fragments scattering all over the ground.

Everyone turned to look at the doorway.

Uchiha Itachi frowned slightly, his gaze calmly fixed on the figure standing against the light.

Shisui frowned, his hand unconsciously resting on the hilt of his sword.

At this time, Zhishui had not yet embarked on that path of no return. In the prime of his life, his eyes were sharp and wary, after all, he would die soon this year, if it weren't for Ye Yan.

Ye Yan stood in the middle of the broken door frame, brushed the sawdust off his trousers, and smiled so brightly it was almost irritating: "Good evening, everyone. Why didn't you call me for the meeting?"

"Insolence!" Uchiha Setsuna stood up abruptly, shouting angrily, "Ye Yan, what kind of manners are these! As a recently rising genius, don't you even understand the most basic etiquette? What kind of occasion is this, allowing you to be so arrogant!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ban was already laughing so hard in the mental space, "Hahahaha! That opening line was awesome! That's how arrogant I am, I love it!"

Izuna shook his head and commented disdainfully, "A brainless hawk. Setsuna might be thinking of assassinating him right now. Tsk tsk, doesn't he see what the situation is? Tobirama is being trampled on by the two Uchiha brothers, and he's still acting like an elder."

Tobirama: "..."

Ye Yan stood at the door, looking at the solemn-faced Uchiha executives in front of him, and his smile deepened.

He wanted to see how this clan meeting could possibly continue.
