Naruto: Konoha Spring of the Uchiha Prodigies

“They are distinguished guests,” said Uchiha Touko.

“I understand,” Kakashi nodded. “Where do the two Hokage and the guests intend to visit the security detail?”

"Let's go check out the cafeteria first, it's almost lunchtime. We can go check out the training grounds after the shift changes," said Uchiha Touko.

"Alright, then we'll have dinner at the guard unit's mess hall tonight?" Kakashi asked.

"That's settled then." Uchiha Touko nodded.

Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, led by Kakashi, went to the guard's mess hall.

It was lunchtime, and the guards who had finished their patrols lined up at the canteen window, waiting for their meals.

Kakashi led the group to a private room in the cafeteria, which was used for official receptions.

But Tobirama Senju spoke up at this moment, saying, "Why are we in a private room? Can't we at least see what the village's ninjas usually eat?"

Tobirama Senju's tone was noticeably impolite, and Kakashi frowned slightly as he looked at Touko Uchiha.

"Second Hokage, I brought you here just so we wouldn't disturb the team's meal. The dishes in the private room are the same as those outside. At most, we'll just add a few more dishes based on the guests' tastes and requests," Uchiha Touko said helplessly.

"The Second Hokage?" Kakashi was taken aback when he heard Uchiha Touko's words, and then looked at Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama with disbelief.

At this moment, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju also deactivated their transformation techniques.

"The Second Hokage? And... the First Hokage?" Kakashi said in disbelief.

"No need for formalities! You're from the Hatake family, aren't you?" Hashirama Senju said cheerfully.

"Kid, why do you have the aura of the Sharingan on you? I remember, isn't the Hatake clan known for their swordsmanship in the ninja world?" Tobirama Senju said. He originally wanted to say that Kakashi smelled of the Sharingan, but he wisely changed his words before he could finish.

"Is this what the Second Hokage meant?" Kakashi said, releasing the seal on his eyes and revealing a pair of scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan.

"The Mangekyou Sharingan?" Tobirama Senju's eyes widened as he turned to look at Touko Uchiha.

If it were just the Mangekyou Sharingan, Tobirama Senju wouldn't be too surprised. After all, he had killed Uchiha who had awakened those eyes before. But for these eyes to appear in the eye sockets of an outsider, and for the Uchiha clan to accept it without question, completely shattered his worldview. You see, during the Warring States period, the Uchiha clan always showed no mercy to anyone who coveted their bloodline limit.

"Kakashi's Sharingan was given to him by a hero of our Uchiha clan before his death, and the Uchiha clan respects the hero's decision," said Uchiha Touko.

Tobirama Senju fell silent. He realized that decades after his death, the world had suddenly changed in ways he couldn't understand.

“However, since the Second Hokage has made a request, let’s go out to eat,” said Uchiha Touko.

Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju reverted to their disguises and followed Touko Uchiha out of the private room and into the main dining hall.

"Lord Hokage!" At this moment, the members of the security team who were already eating stood up and greeted Uchiha Touko upon seeing him.

"Hey, no need for formalities, let's eat first, don't worry about us," Uchiha Touko quickly waved his hand.

However, despite this, every time Uchiha Touko passed by a table, several members of the security team would spontaneously stand up to greet him, their eyes filled with heartfelt respect.

"Touko, you seem to be very popular as Hokage," Hashirama Senju whispered to Touko Uchiha after walking a little further away.

"You flatter me, First Hokage," said Uchiha Touko.

Senju Tobirama's face was filled with shock. He had taken in every bite of the food on every ninja's plate in the cafeteria. Beef, lobster, salmon—ingredients that were usually only found on the tables of nobles—were now openly on the plates of the guard ninjas.

Moreover, judging from the fact that their plates are piled high with more vegetables than staple food, these expensive ingredients seem to be unlimited!

At this moment, the group arrived at the food serving window. Tobirama Senju was utterly shocked when he saw the lobsters piled high in the window and a tuna that had just been butchered.

"Are the ninjas in the village eating this well now?" Tobirama Senju asked.

Uchiha Touko handed the meals prepared by the cafeteria staff to the three Hokage behind him, then took one for himself. After leading everyone to an empty seat, he said, "The security team is responsible for the security of the entire village. After patrolling, they also need to undergo a lot of training, so their nutritional needs are naturally very high. Currently, among all the departments in the village, the Anbu and this place have the best food and treatment. As for the other departments, they are slightly inferior."

Tobirama Senju's expression became extremely complicated. Whether it was the tall buildings he had seen in Konoha on the way here, or the spirit and logistical support of the guards he saw here, it all highlighted one thing: the village was developing much better under the Fifth Hokage, Toko Uchiha, than it had under him and his older brother!

If Uchiha Touko hadn't been surnamed Uchiha, Tobirama Senju would have been overjoyed with the village's development. But Uchiha Touko just happened to have that damned Uchiha surname!

Although the reanimated body can maintain its vitality without eating, it can still taste food. Hashirama Senju seemed to enjoy this meal very much. As the former head of the Senju clan, he had eaten these kinds of things before, but this time, Hashirama Senju found them to have a unique flavor. After all, this was food he was eating from the same pot with his fellow villagers.

However, Senju Tobirama, preoccupied with his own thoughts, found the meal utterly tasteless.

After the meal, Uchiha Touko and Kakashi led everyone to the police force's training ground as planned.

When everyone arrived at the training ground, it was the time for the fire-attribute ninjas in the security team to receive their training.

Inside the spacious training ground, members of the security team, dressed in training uniforms, followed their respective instructors in twos and threes, listening attentively to their guidance.

Most of these instructors' uniforms were embroidered with the Uchiha clan crest.

Seeing this, Tobirama Senju was dumbfounded. When did the Uchiha clan start interacting with ordinary people like this?

"Inagaki Seigo! What are you doing? Is this how you use the Phoenix Flower Technique? How many times have I told you! Pay attention to the chakra ratio! The ratio!" At this moment, a furious roar rang out from a corner of the training ground.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a Jonin from the Uchiha clan pointing at a boy who looked like he had just graduated and scolding him.

"I'm sorry, instructor! I was too hasty!" the boy said, bowing his head in apology.

"Fine, it seems I was too demanding of you. After all, a ninja like you without the Sharingan can't be expected to be a genius." The Uchiha clan instructor crossed his arms and snorted coldly.

Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju's face immediately lit up with a satisfied expression. Just as expected, this was the kind of Uchiha he wanted!

"I'm sorry, instructor, please give me another chance!" the reprimanded boy said hastily.

"What's the point of giving you another chance!" Uchiha Tesso scolded. "Do you really think you can master this technique just by trying again?"

"Instructor...I..."

"I'll demonstrate it to you one last time!" Uchiha Tetsuyu said coldly. "Watch carefully with your mediocre eyes! If you still can't learn it, you'd better go back to the basic chakra control class for half a year!"

"Yes!" Inagaki Seigo nodded vigorously, then began to stare intently at Uchiha Tetsuyu's movements.

……

"Is this how the security forces are trained?" Hashirama Senju, who had witnessed the entire scene, couldn't help but ask curiously.

"That's not it. The instructors for other ninjutsu training classes are generally more easygoing, but the instructors for Fire Release ninjutsu are Jonin from the Uchiha clan, so..."

“I can sense that your Uchiha instructor really wants to teach that civilian,” Hashirama Senju said. “When Madara was teaching you, he said even more outrageous things than Madara did.”

Uchiha Touko: ...

"It seems the Uchiha clan has truly integrated into the village. If Madara could see this, I think he would be very happy," Hashirama Senju remarked.

"The First Hokage, the Uchiha clan, has always been part of the village, hasn't it?" Uchiha Tokō said at this moment.

"Yes, the Uchiha clan has always been a part of the village," Hashirama Senju said with some emotion. After the village was established, how to integrate the proud Uchiha clan into the village had always been a major headache for him. After his attempt to make Madara Uchiha the First Hokage failed, the already strained relationship between the Uchiha clan and the other ninja clans in the village was further exacerbated. Madara's departure only added another layer of pain to this already significant rift.

Therefore, this had always been a source of anxiety for him, and now, seeing this scene, Hashirama Senju was naturally extremely gratified.

After visiting the training grounds, the group returned to the Hokage's office.

"Fifth Hokage, do you have any leads regarding the enemy who stole the Edo Tensei?" Hashirama Senju asked with a serious expression after returning to the Hokage's office.

"Not yet, but he must be a very troublesome enemy. The Third Hokage should know Orochimaru's strength. Defeating him might not be difficult, but to kill him in a short time, even I am not sure if I can do it," said Uchiha Touko.

“So, we have to stay in the village in this state for a while longer, right?” Tobirama Senju said at this moment.

“That’s right,” Uchiha Tokō said. “I’m very sorry to have disturbed your rest, but for the sake of the village, please be patient for a while. During this time, you can make any requests to me.”

“Staying a little longer is fine, it’s all for the village. But, Touko, could you find me a set of dice?” Hashirama Senju said with a smile, scratching his head.

……

Chapter 265 He absolutely could not control the Nine-Tails

“That’s easy.” Uchiha Touko nodded. Look at the First Hokage’s resolve. He was resurrected through Edo Tensei and had to hide his identity. Logically speaking, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for Uchiha Touko to help him set up a gambling den. But all he wanted was a set of dice to pass the time.

"Where is the Second Hokage? Is there anything you need?" Uchiha Touko turned to look at Senju Tobirama. Although the old man didn't seem very friendly to him, he was still the Second Hokage of the village, so he had to give him the respect he deserved.

"Could you send me the village's history over the years? As the Second Hokage, I should have the right to know what has happened in the village over the years, right?" Tobirama Senju said, looking at Touko Uchiha.

Upon hearing Tobirama Senju's words, Touko Uchiha remained calm, but Hiruzen Sarutobi became tense.

Before becoming Hokage, Uchiha Touko cleaned up all the shady things he had done. As for what happened after he took office, he didn't leave any records of any secret matters, such as his contact with Orochimaru.

On the contrary, Hiruzen Sarutobi, even though Danzo did all the dirty work for him, was still enough to enrage Tobirama Senju, even for things that seemed harmless on the surface.

Putting everything else aside, regarding the White Fang incident and the Hyuga Hizashi incident, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't think his little tricks could fool his teacher.

“Of course, no problem. I’ve often heard the Third Hokage speak of the Second Hokage’s wisdom. Now that I have this rare opportunity, I naturally want to ask the Second Hokage for some guidance.” Uchiha Touko gave Sarutobi Hiruzen a reassuring look out of the corner of his eye before speaking.

Uchiha Touko took out a sealing scroll from the filing cabinet and handed it to Senju Tobirama.

After Tobirama Senju passed away, Toukoku Uchiha led the two back to the secret room where he had used the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

"Then you two can stay here for the night. I'll have someone come and help you tidy up your rooms in a bit," said Uchiha Touko.

"It's so late, there's no need to trouble the village ninjas." Hashirama Senju waved his hand and said, "We ninjas have been through all kinds of harsh environments, so making do for one night is no big deal."

"Well then, please make yourselves at home, both Hokage. I should be leaving get off work now," said Uchiha Touko.

"First Generation, Master, then I'll head back too." At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi also spoke up.

"You guys go back, don't worry about the two of us," Hashirama Senju said.

After Uchiha Touko and Sarutobi Hiruzen left, Senju Hashirama found a place to sit down cross-legged, intending to make do for the night. Senju Tobirama then opened the sealing scroll that Uchiha Touko had given him.

After Uchiha Touko and Sarutobi Hiruzen left the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen nervously whispered to Uchiha Touko, "Touko, will there be any problems showing this directly to the Second Hokage?"

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi looks like a mischievous child who has caused trouble and is now anxiously awaiting judgment from his elders.

"Don't worry, Third Hokage, I've already taken care of the village's history. I've pinned everything on Danzo that could be pinned on him. After the Second Hokage finishes reading it, he'll at most be a little dissatisfied with you, but he won't do anything to you," Uchiha Touko chuckled.

"That puts my mind at ease." Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief and then said gratefully, "Thank you very much this time, Touko."

"What are you saying, Third Hokage? Didn't I already say that for the sake of the village's cohesion, the Hokage's hat must not have any stains?" Uchiha Touko said with a light laugh.

"Anyway, thank you." Hiruzen Sarutobi said, while thinking to himself.

I'm sorry, Danzo, this is truly, truly the last time.

……

"Damn Shimura Danzo! I was blind back then! I actually took in such a disciple!" After reading the village history for two hours, Tobirama Senju saw the records of Danzo colluding with Orochimaru, using orphans from the same village to research Hashirama's cells, and assassinating the Uchiha clan during the war to steal the Sharingan. He immediately flew into a rage and cursed.

Although he himself had done a lot of research on Hashirama cells and the Sharingan, he would never be so heartless as to use orphans from his own village for experiments! Furthermore, no matter how much he disliked the Uchiha clan, he would never do something like betraying his comrades on the battlefield!

Tobirama Senju had already made his plans. Once he returned to the Pure Land, he would find Danzo as soon as possible and then clean house!

Tobirama Senju took a deep breath and then stood up.

"Tobirama, where are you going?" Hashirama Senju opened his eyes and asked.

"I'll just wander around the village for a bit and then I'll be right back," Tobirama Senju said.
