Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 231 was ultimately a futile effort.
Hashirama Senju slowly raised his hand. Suddenly, he felt his whole body stiffen and begin to move uncontrollably. At the same time, his throat began to itch.

An urge to scream surged within me.

boom!
Just then, Orochimaru's body collapsed to the ground.

'It's over, it's all finished. I didn't expect I wouldn't escape after all? And what's the reason this time?'

Orochimaru lay on the ground like a corpse, letting out an extremely shrill scream. From the moment he fell, Orochimaru knew that he was completely finished. Jiraiya and Tsunade's past was his present.

He never imagined that he would have such a day.

As a rogue ninja, he should have lost not only his identity as a Konoha ninja but also his identity as a member of the Land of Fire. Logically, he should now be a person without borders.

"No!"

Hashirama Senju frantically pushed the power within his body, trying to break free from Uchiha Kazuto's control. However, he failed. He did nothing and collapsed to the ground, his body stiff, and began to scream.

Apart from Hashirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Tobirama Senju, and even the White Snake Sage Cave all lay on the ground like corpses, screaming and wailing incessantly.

After hearing the White Snake Sage's scream, Orochimaru immediately understood.

"Yes, yes, although I am a person without borders, I am a person of the ninja world. Even the White Snake Sage has become like this. It seems that Uchiha Kazuto has now ruled the entire ninja world and spread his power throughout it."

Thinking this, Orochimaru was utterly desperate and gave up. So they had failed from the very beginning. So their fate had been sealed from the start. What was the point of their previous struggles?

'So, I really am no match for Uchiha Kazuto. Tobirama and the others were right…'

Hashirama Senju lay on the ground, filled with utter despair. He suddenly felt that his resurrection was a joke. Since his resurrection, he had accomplished nothing. Perhaps Uchiha Tou didn't even know he had been resurrected. He had never actually seen what Uchiha Tou looked like.

What utter despair and helplessness!
He didn't understand, he really didn't understand, how the world had become such a mess. Everything was fine before. Ever since he established the ninja village system, the whole world had been developing for the better. All of this was because of the appearance of Uchiha Kazuto, which made it like this.

The Uchiha clan is inherently evil!!!

Hashirama Senju cursed inwardly, his goodwill towards the Uchiha clan completely gone because of Uchiha Tou. If he could, he would not hesitate to exterminate the Uchiha clan to protect his existence.

After all, this is the great Will of Fire. If it is for the Will of Fire, for the sake of protecting existence, he would not hesitate to destroy the Land of Fire, let alone the mere Uchiha clan.

Unfortunately, he never had that opportunity.

As the entire ninja world fell completely under the rule of the Uchiha clan, and with the continuous development of imperial technology, after solving their basic survival needs, the people who originally belonged to various countries began to realize that, compared to the past, accepting the rule of the empire was a great blessing for them.

Absolutely perfect public security, a free education system, cheap food, and the freedom to do whatever you want as long as you don't break the law—it may not satisfy everyone, but it's infinitely better than the past. At least people in small countries no longer need to envy the peaceful lives of people in large countries, nor do they need to worry about being affected by battles between large countries.

How can we bridge the gap between two countries with a very large wealth disparity?
It's very simple. Just annex that weak country and make it part of your own. That way, for the people of those weak countries, it won't be that their country is weak, but rather that their region is poor and will eventually develop.

Of course, this is all predicated on a super leader who treats everyone equally, and a well-established legal system that can enforce equality for all; otherwise, it would take generations to adapt.

Now, as life gets better and better, some people have started to roam all over the ninja world. Then, someone sensed a powerful chakra fluctuation in the depths of the ocean and dug Orochimaru and the others out.

They were all sent to the laboratory.

What made the researchers happiest was the appearance of Orochimaru and Tobirama Senju.

In particular, they completely resurrected Tobirama Senju, then collected the memories of Tobirama Senju and Orochimaru, and mass-produced their brains.

In the current empire, there is wet computing technology. The more advanced the brain used in this technology, the stronger its computing power and data processing capabilities.

It's important to understand that many researchers at the Academy of Sciences are not actually very smart; they are only average. The reason they appear to be geniuses is due to the established settings. If these settings were removed and their brains were individually trained to create wet-component AI, those wet-component AIs would be quite rubbish.

The setting didn't change their genes. Without the setting, although the knowledge in their minds wouldn't disappear, the ability to be full of inspiration and think about many things at will would be gone.

It can be said that the settings are important, but the hardware is also very important.

The brains of Tobirama Senju and Orochimaru were valuable; soon, their brains began to be widely distributed and produced.

As for Tobirama Senju and Orochimaru's people?

That's not important; their brains are what matter most.

Time passes quietly.

The Mars colonization project officially began. Because there were not many people in the ninja world, the scale of the colonization was not very large. Only five million people were selected to go to Mars for construction and survival. At the same time, the technology of interstellar space-time communication was also introduced.

By creating a core that can communicate with each other and implanting it inside a planet, this core will then connect with cores on other planets, creating a special spacetime channel. Through this spacetime channel, Uchiha and Toru can easily spread their power.

Instead of radiating across extremely distant cosmic spaces, since the universe is too vast—one light-year, two light-years, one hundred light-years, ten thousand light-years, one hundred thousand light-years. Even the so-called Milky Way galaxy is nothing more than a speck of dust in the universe; it is too insignificant.
