Chapter 269 Useless Roots
If they can connect to parallel worlds, they can unite the forces of those worlds to jointly defeat the Uchiha clan. They might even be able to meet the Sage of Six Paths in his younger days in a parallel world and recruit him into their expeditionary force.

They believed that the Sage of Six Paths would never allow Uchiha Kazuto to exist—a madman with such ambition, madness, and power who wanted to spread war to other parallel worlds—and would definitely stop him.

After all, the timeline of a parallel world is completely unknown; who knows what timeline the other parallel world is actually at?

Under the guidance of the Great Toad Sage and his allies, the Ninja Alliance developed very smoothly. The resurrection technique based on Pure Land gave them an extra surprise. The emergence of this technology directly turned all their past killings into a joke.

dead?
It's okay, just revive them!
With the help of the Great Toad Sage, Orochimaru shed his status as a Konoha traitor and returned to Konoha. In addition, Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju, the First and Second Hokage, returned to their loyal Konoha.

After learning about the situation in this world and the current state of Konoha, both Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju fell silent.

They have a feeling that they built up a huge fortune, and then, after sleeping, it was all squandered.

Hashirama Senju, in particular, was filled with anger. What was the purpose of his founding the village in the first place?
It was for peace, to end the war, and to eliminate the distorted form of warfare that required children to go to the battlefield. But he had only been dead for a short time, and Konoha had already started sending child soldiers to the battlefield. This was not the Konoha he had imagined.

War has never disappeared.

On the contrary, now in order to save the world, Konoha and its ninjas have no choice but to rule the world. Isn't this exactly what Madara Uchiha's ideal was back then?
Upon his resurrection and learning that the backward ninja village world had just ended and the era of the ninja kingdom had begun, Hashirama Senju fell silent, a lump in his throat, leaving him at a loss for what to do.

He destroyed his brother's dream with his own hands, but years later, he became the very thing his brother had dreamed of being. His brother, in turn, was killed by his younger self.

No, for Hashirama Senju, it was even worse. In his eyes, after his great battle with Madara Uchiha, he died some time later, as if everything went black. When he woke up, the world had become exactly as Madara Uchiha had envisioned.

So it wasn't many years later, but immediately after killing his brother, he became the kind of person his brother had imagined. How could Hashirama Senju accept such a reality?
He can't accept it. If the ninja country era is the best solution, then what about his so-called ninja village system? What about his break with Uchiha Madara and even killing him?

Doesn't that make him look like a clown?
Hashirama Senju was confused. Was he actually wrong?
Is it true that freckles are the only correct one?

Although the era of ninja kingdoms arose due to external threats, given the current state of affairs, it's highly unlikely that any major nations will launch a war anytime soon. After all, the ninjas of the various ninja villages are busy enjoying themselves and no longer need to complete any missions.

Now we truly have a bright future ahead of us.

"Danzo, disband the Root organization!"

Tobirama Senju's voice echoed in Danzo Shimura's ears for a long time. "Master, why? Konoha needs darkness, it needs Root!"

Danzo Shimura looked at Tobirama Senju with a puzzled expression. Where there is light, there is darkness. The existence of Root is necessary for Konoha.

"Why? Danzo, don't you understand? Your Root is simply a darkness that has no reason to exist!"

Yes, where there is light, there is darkness, but not all darkness is useful. Some so-called darkness is nothing more than a parasite to the light; it should not exist and is unnecessary for it to exist.

If we compare Danzo's roots to the roots of the great tree Konoha, then these roots are rotten and must be cut off; they are darkness that has no reason to exist.

After being resurrected, Tobirama Senju already knew about the previous situation in Konoha and what foolish things Danzo had done.

Assassinate the Hokage, huh? Experiment with your own comrades in the village, huh? Force the ninja clans in the village to give their descendants as his slaves, huh? Scheme against talented ninjas in the village, mark them with slave marks, and train them into your own private army, huh?

Look, look, Danzo has done so many good deeds.

These things completely trample on the village's order and rules. What else is there?
Aside from being bullies within their own village, Root has made no contribution to Konoha. In fact, Root ninjas don't even need to do village missions or earn money for the village. Instead, they receive a sum of money every month from that idiot Hiruzen Sarutobi, which is money that other ninjas have worked hard to earn.

Then, this money wasn't used for the village at all. Instead, Danzo used it to deal with the village's ninjas. What do you mean by saying that the money you earned was used by me to buy poison to kill you?

Alright, so this is what they call Root? An organization that does nothing, makes no contribution, and exists outside the rules of Konoha. Like vampires, it clings to Konoha and frantically sucks its blood. What's the point of keeping such an organization around?

Tobirama Senju really couldn't figure out what use Danzo's Root organization was to the village. Besides bullying his own people and targeting the villagers, what else had Root done?

Of course, Danzo's Root did do some good things. For example, they pushed the peace organization Akatsuki of the Land of Rain to the extreme, turning them into an extreme terrorist organization. Ultimately, years later, they brought immense disaster to Konoha. As for Danzo's Root, as the Dark Side of Konoha, when Konoha was in danger, they only needed to hide and let others fight. They had much more to think about.

For example, how to seize power after a lot of people have died, or how to better select slaves from the various families after their strength has been weakened in order to protect the village, and train normal people into numb dogs who only know how to obey Danzo.

If it were Tobirama Senju...
