Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates

Upon hearing this, Rhodes fell into deep thought. The Second Hokage was truly a talent!

How dare he say such a thing? Even if a prisoner were to be recruited, he wouldn't say something like this.

Even a Jonin-level expert, after being infused with evil energy, can still rival many high-level demons; their combat power is undeniable.

"This world will provide me with a continuous army of ninjas. What makes you think you can replace me with a forbidden technique?" Rhodes said.

"With your current strength, you can easily control the life on a planet. You just said that."

For you, it would take days and nights for these cannon fodder troops to conquer a world, but it wouldn't be as fast as a single ninjutsu from you.

If the opponent is one you can't handle, then sending out these cannon fodder is pointless.

So, Lord Rhodes, what's the point of having these ninjas used as cannon fodder?

"Are you just trying to send them to their deaths, or are you offering them the temptation of immortality?" Tobirama Senju asked.

He was actually quite curious about this, since he clearly had the ability to modify the memories of everyone on the planet.

If you have the combat power to crush an entire planet, then what use are these cannon fodder? Those demons would be better!

"Now that you mention it, it does seem to be true," Rod said thoughtfully.

He had only thought about utilizing the power of ninjas before, but upon closer reflection, he realized that all the people in the ninja world combined wouldn't be enough to defeat him with one hand.

Moreover, he has already mastered the power of chakra, and in the future, through Archimonde, he will even transmit it to the entire legion.

The reason these ninjas have their current fighting power is, frankly speaking, all thanks to chakra. So, once the legion's demons take control of chakra, it seems that these mortals have no reason to exist.

"I can develop some amazing techniques for you. If you need cannon fodder, you can extract my brother's blood."

Using Wood Release to create special war weapons, one can become a qualified combatant in just a few months, without needing to be trained from childhood.

And isn't that what the Burning Legion is called? Those giant rock monsters that these demons summoned before, they're called Hellfire.

I can also use Earth Release ninjutsu to modify it and further enhance its combat power.

This should also be considered a product of summoning and communicating with spirits. These tireless creatures with terrifying combat power are the best cannon fodder warriors.

"You even have to provide logistical support for the ninja forces. To put it bluntly, ninjas are just a group of ordinary people who have obtained chakra power," Tobirama Senju said.

After being resurrected by the Sage of Six Paths, he also learned some secrets of the ninja world and understood that there was no chakra in the beginning of this world.

The Sage of Six Paths' mother gave birth to chakra on this planet, and the Sage of Six Paths then distributed the chakra to all of humanity.

Chakra is the root of all evil.

"What you said makes sense. These ninjas are indeed of little use to me. Tobirama Senju, what exactly do you want?" Rhodes asked.

"I want to truly save this world. Chakra is the root of all turmoil. It is because of the existence of chakra that the profession of ninja came into being."

The Sage of Six Paths' approach was far too naive. Chakra is an energy more suited for combat than for fostering understanding and connection between people.

If this world lost chakra, then there would be no ninjas, a world without ninjas.

A world without chakra would eliminate much war. If possible, I hope you will take back all the chakra from this world.

Tobirama Senju said something that made the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, incredulous.

Eliminating chakra, eliminating chakra! Isn't that the same as eliminating the ninja profession?

"How can you? Second Grandfather, the chakra belongs to us."

"Chakra is not the power of our planet at all; it is the power of aliens. Our world did not have chakra at the beginning."

It was chakra that caused a thousand years of turmoil and the brutal Warring States period.

"Since the beginning of the ninja village era, in just sixty years, there have been four consecutive Shinobi World Wars. How many lives have been lost? Tsunade, you know better than I do." Tobirama Senju turned and questioned.

"Tobirama, you're right. Chakra is the source of chaos in our world." The First Hokage took a deep breath and said, now somewhat agreeing with his brother's assessment.

"Hahaha! I'm valuing you more and more, Tobirama Senju. The chakra of this world had already been taken back by Kaguya."

And I wanted to train them into weapons of war, so I bestowed upon them chakra.

"But now you want me to take it back again, which is fine, it'll only take me a blink of an eye," Rhodes said.

He could retrieve all the chakra seeds with a mere wave of his hand, and the chakra of this world would once again vanish completely.

However, losing chakra does not mean peace; it may even mean losing the weapons to protect oneself. When facing the Otsutsuki clan, one can only rely on the power of the Otsutsuki clan to deal with them.

The Otsutsuki clan will come, but Tobirama Senju doesn't know that even if he doesn't speak or do anything, Rhodes will still deal with them, because the Otsutsuki clan is top-grade bait for the Ten-Tails.

That's why he put forward three conditions, which seem very simple, but each step is a calculation.

The first condition is to release the First Hokage and make him the guardian of this world, with him being the only one who controls the power of chakra.

He wanted to marry Tsunade because he wanted to establish a connection between himself and the world.

What a clever scheme! The First Hokage protects this world, and his granddaughter marries him. The First Hokage can handle things himself, so there's no need to bother Rhodes.

When problems arise that cannot be solved, he and Tsunade come to him for help—a woman, a technical advisor, and a shield to protect the ninja world.

Triple insurance to protect the world.

"I preserved chakra for your brother Hashirama Senju and granted him a thousand years of lifespan so that he could protect this world. Isn't that your scheme?" Rhodes asked.

"No! I never intended for you to grant him a thousand years of life. If you give me this power, I will give it to him," Tobirama Senju said.

One should not easily guess the thoughts of those in power; Rhodes has already promised to give himself the energy of life and chakra.

At that time, he could also grant his brother a long life, so that he could protect the ninja world, not to mention that he himself would also be there!

"I promise you! And I can tell you definitively that the Otsutsuki clan will invade this planet in the future, and I will come and wipe them out then," Rhode said.

"Thank you very much. From today onwards, Lord Rhodes, I will serve you. Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it." Tobirama Senju knelt on the ground and said to Rhodes.

Rhodes opened his Rinnegan, then mobilized his life energy to activate the Rinne Rebirth Technique, reviving Tobirama Senju.

At the same time, he poured life energy and evil energy into Tobirama Senju's body until his body reached its limit.

The Senju clan has very strong physical abilities; Tobirama Senju alone could withstand more power than Kabuto Yakushi and Orochimaru.

After completing the energy infusion, Tobirama Senju felt the two completely different energies within his body. He clenched his fist and thought, "Chakra, life force, and evil energy—I am now completely stronger than my older brother."

"Alright! Say goodbye to your elder brother! Give him a little bit of fel energy or life force, and he will be able to live forever." After saying that, Rhodes opened the cell door and released the three of them from their restraints.

It seems Orochimaru and Kabuto need to find a new research site for them.

After watching Rhodes leave, Tobirama Senju took a deep breath and then looked at his older brother and granddaughter.

"Big brother, you must promise me that you will keep your chakra power and protect the world. Don't interfere in the wars between ordinary people."

Most importantly, no matter how peace-loving, kind, or power-hungry the teenager you encounter is...

"Never give your chakra to the other party, or another catastrophe will occur!" Tobirama Senju said.

"I understand. I assure you, the power of chakra will only reside within me. I will never give it to anyone else," Hashirama Senju said.

"Hmm! Tsunade! I've observed him carefully, and he's very good to his women. Also, I can tell he's very young. If he were older, I wouldn't have made this request," Tobirama Senju said.

Most importantly, he could tell that Rhodes was somewhat interested in Tsunade, and although Rhodes was powerful, he was very young.

He's even younger than Tsunade; if he were any older, Tsunade wouldn't be able to connect with him as a woman.

"So, Second Grandfather, at least talk to me first! The other side destroyed our world!" Tsunade said, somewhat annoyed.

"But I will save it, and completely eliminate the power of chakra, the root of all evil!" Tobirama Senju said.

After arriving in the outside world, Rhode once again took to the sky and, using his chakra seed as a base, reclaimed the chakra of the entire world.

Then he used Infinite Tsukuyomi again to restore the memories of the entire ninja world.

"Give your thanks, ninjas! Thank the Second Hokage for saving you. The era of the ninjas is over!"

All the ninjas who regained consciousness heard a voice. (End of Chapter)
