Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

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.

"Tobirama, you're going to cause trouble for Touko and the monkeys," Hashirama Senju said.

"Don't worry, brother, as long as no one sees me, it'll be fine," Tobirama Senju said. "Although my strength in this state is not as good as in my prime, if it's just a disguise, no one will be able to detect it."

After saying that, Tobirama Senju pushed open the door and left the secret room.

"Hey! Tobirama!" Hashirama Senju shook his head helplessly, then closed his eyes to rest. His younger brother always had his own opinions on these matters.

……

The territory of the Senju clan.

"Damn it! That casino is definitely up to something! How can I lose 25 times in a row when betting on sic 'big'?" Tsunade swayed as she walked into the clan's territory, carrying a bottle of sake in one hand.

"Lady Tsunade, you've had too much to drink again!" At this moment, Shizune came out of her house after hearing the commotion. Looking at Tsunade, who was obviously drunk, she had a helpless expression on her face.

"Lady Tsunade." At this moment, Karin's mother also heard the commotion, came out and supported Tsunade on both sides, taking her back home.

"I'm not drunk! I'm perfectly sober!" Tsunade shouted while acting drunk.

"Lady Tsunade, you went to the gambling den again?" Shizune said with a headache. "The Hokage already sent someone to help you clear your gambling debts once this month. You should probably tone it down a bit."

"Hold back what?" Tsunade retorted confidently. "I've trained so many medical ninjas for him all year, and I only get a few salaries from him! It's only right that he helps me pay off my debts!"

"Alright, alright, Lady Tsunade, you should rest first. You have to go to work tomorrow." Anri Uzumaki said while helping Tsunade clean up. She was much more experienced than Shizune and knew that before the drunkard sobered up, it was best to go along with whatever he said.

"Go to work? Go to work my ass! Shizune, ask for leave for me tomorrow morning!" Tsunade said before falling into a deep sleep.

After exchanging a glance with Shizune, Anri Uzumaki reluctantly covered Tsunade with the blanket, then turned off the light and left, plunging Tsunade's room into darkness.

After a while, a voice clearly suppressing anger rang out from inside the room.

"Tsunade!" "Tsunade!"

"Who the hell is yelling at me in the middle of the night!" Tsunade was woken up by the noise and sat up abruptly.

"So you've finally woken up?" the voice in the darkness said upon seeing this.

Tsunade's only response to this was a powerful punch.

However, the punch landed on empty air, and then the figure reappeared behind Tsunade.

"You've really grown up; you've even learned to fight me now."

"You charlatan! Die!" Tsunade turned around and threw another punch.

This time, however, her wrist was grabbed directly.

"Have you become so lax? At your age, this is all the strength you have?" The newcomer's tone was full of exasperation and disappointment.

"Who exactly are you?" Tsunade's gaze turned serious at this moment. She began to use her chakra to break down the alcohol in her body. Although she was not in the best condition due to drunkenness, the person who could so easily block her punch was definitely not an ordinary person.

“Your second grandfather!” Tobirama Senju said.

"Your second grandfather!" Tsunade was instantly enraged upon hearing this, and threw another punch, using her superhuman strength in this one.

However, after a dizzying spin, Tsunade suddenly found herself transported from the room to the wilderness. Having lost her target, she also lost her balance and fell to the ground in a somewhat disheveled manner.

At that moment, by the light of the moon, Tsunade was able to see the face of the person who had just arrived.

Good heavens, it really is his second grandfather.

"Second Grandfather?" Tsunade froze on the spot.

Tobirama Senju's Flying Thunder God Technique just now undoubtedly proved his identity.

"Tsunade, you have really disappointed me. You drink and gamble. How can you live up to the name of the Senju clan?"

Before Tobirama Senju, Tsunade obediently accepted the scolding. As a child, Tsunade had always been afraid of her stern great-uncle. Tobirama Senju only needed two sentences to remind her of the memories of being disciplined as a child.

As for the authenticity of the other party's identity, the fluctuation of the other party's chakra is exactly the same as that of Tobirama Senju, whom Tsunade was familiar with when she was a child. In addition, there was the Flying Thunder God Technique just now. Although she still does not know why Tobirama Senju was resurrected, Tsunade can be sure that the other party is her great-uncle.

After being scolded, Tsunade asked with a forced smile, "Um, Second Grandfather, why are you back?"

"The village has run into some trouble," Tobirama Senju said, then explained the situation to Tsunade.

"Damn Orochimaru! He's dead, but he caused so much trouble and disturbed your peaceful rest, Second Grandfather!" Tsunade said indignantly after hearing this.

"Alright, I won't say anything more. Tell me about what has happened over the years, especially about Uchiha Touko," Tobirama Senju said. With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that there were some problems with the history of the village that Uchiha Touko had given him, so Tobirama Senju chose to investigate it himself.

"Doukaku?" Tsunade asked. "He's done a pretty good job as Hokage all these years. Although he became Hokage after a coup that ousted the Third Hokage, the village has developed much better under his leadership than it had under the Third Hokage."

Although Tsunade often caused trouble for Uchiha Touko, she still recognized his work achievements. After all, what Uchiha Touko was asking her to do now was her dream from her early years. Moreover, she knew how much it would cost to train medical ninjas on such a large scale. However, in recent years, she hadn't had to ask for funding from the medical school. A large sum of money would be deposited into the account at the beginning of each month.

Therefore, when faced with her second grandfather's question, Tsunade did not hesitate to say a few good words for Uchiha Touka. However, Tobirama Senju's attention was drawn to a single word in Tsunade's words.

"A coup? He, the Fifth Hokage, came to power through a coup?" Tobirama Senju exclaimed sharply.

“Well, Second Grandfather, you can’t count it that way. Back then, the situation in the village was that the three generations of old men were greedy for power. Fighting them all to take his place was actually the popular choice in the village,” Tsunade said.

"Why are you speaking up for him like this? Haven't you considered that the Nine-Tails' rampage back then was controlled by him using his Mangekyou Sharingan? According to the timeline, he had the ability and the motive!" Tobirama Senju said.

"That's impossible." Tsunade said firmly upon hearing this.

"Hmm?" Tobirama Senju frowned upon hearing this.

“Even the Chunin in Uchiha Tokō's village who specializes in genjutsu are better than him at genjutsu. If he can control the Nine-Tails, I can win all the casinos in Tanabata Street tomorrow. Moreover, the culprit of the Nine-Tails' rampage has already been killed by him with his own hands,” Tsunade said.

Tobirama Senju: ? ? ?
"What did you say? His genjutsu skills as an Uchiha are this bad?" Tobirama Senju said in disbelief. As the old rival of the Uchiha clan, even with his strength, he was greatly troubled by the Uchiha clan's genjutsu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have developed the Dark Travel Technique specifically to target the Sharingan's genjutsu.

But what did he hear now?
How could an Uchiha with the Mangekyou Sharingan be inferior to some Chunin in genjutsu?
"Uh, Grandpa, please don't tell anyone this, it's a village secret," Tsunade said.

“Alright, I understand.” Tobirama Senju nodded. “Tell me about other things, especially the coup.”

“Um… Second Grandfather, I wasn’t in the village when Dou Guang staged his coup, so I only have a vague understanding of it,” Tsunade said.

“Then tell me what you know, and tell me in detail what he did after he took office,” Tobirama Senju said.

“Alright.” Tsunade nodded, and then the grandfather and granddaughter chatted until almost dawn.

The next day, when Tobirama Senju returned to his secret room in the Hokage Building, he called out to Touko Uchiha with a serious expression as Touko Uchiha came to greet them before going to work.

"Fifth Generation, you're preparing for war now, aren't you?"
