Comparison of the two Hokage: Both ninja worlds are devastated.

The group walked inside, chatting and laughing, when Mikoto's soft muttering came from behind:

"Jiraiya-sama's hair was originally white, wasn't it?"

Chapter 87 Orochimaru's Olive Beads

"Uehara-kun, do you know something?"

"what?"

"Since you appeared, since we met you, many people's dream is no longer to become Hokage."

He is the person everyone genuinely loves, believes in, and considers the best candidate for Hokage.

"That's precisely your unique charm, Uehara-kun."

It was another late night.

Inside the command tent of the frontline ninja army headquarters,

Uehara Shimei, as the assistant to the commander-in-chief and in effect the deputy commander-in-chief, sat upright beside Orochimaru.

The large, backless chair was exactly the same in style and design as Orochimaru's.

Mikoto, as Uehara Shinmei's assistant, sat close to Uehara Shinmei on a small stool without a backrest.

The three stood side by side, with Uehara Siming placed in the very center, making it seem as if he were the master of the place.

At some point, my work for the day was about to end.

Orochimaru slowly closed the last document with his pale arm, then suddenly turned to look at Uehara Shimei.

His voice was hoarse, but carried a hint of excitement.

"Yes, so we can't let them down."

Uehara Siming smiled faintly, inexplicably feeling a heavier burden on her shoulders.

He wasn't a sentimental person, but humans aren't beasts after all, and are easily swayed by emotions.

Putting aside other places, within their own two teams alone, Minato and Nawaki haven't mentioned becoming Hokage for a long time.

Kushina was the same.

Many people are the same.

However, for Uehara Shimei, being a good Hokage was just a side effect.

There is no difficulty, no psychological barrier, and it does not affect one's true goal.

He was happy to do it.

Uehara Siming smiled.

Orochimaru spoke again from the side, causing Orochimaru's expression to freeze instantly on his face.

"My dream is no longer to become Hokage."

Orochimaru smiled nonchalantly.

Despite having no intense expressions, movements, or exaggerated tone of voice,

There was nothing wrong with it at all.

It was as if he had suddenly broken free of a heavy shackle, and in an instant he felt incredibly relaxed.

That gentle gaze seemed to contain the most powerful force in the world, captivating all who beheld it.

"Snake Uncle, you..."

Even the mighty Shangyuan Siming felt her heart skip a beat upon hearing such words.

He knew that Nawaki's death was a crucial turning point for Orochimaru and Tsunade, two of the legendary Sannin.

The Sannin are the most important allies he can currently rely on, so he has been trying his best to prevent the explosion tag incident from happening as in the original work.

As a great man once said, it is very important to know who your enemies are and who your friends are.

For him, the previous generation's Hiruzen Sarutobi, Shimura Danzo,

They have never been on the same path as me; they are enemies, targets to be defeated, peaks to be overcome, and the ultimate boss at this stage. They must never be used as ceremonial figures.

While Minato, Kushina, and others certainly have bright futures, with his help and the early stimulation of their potential, their future achievements will be even more limitless.

But after all, it will be a long time before it truly matures.

In the middle generation of Konoha, the only ones who could truly shoulder the responsibility were the Sannin and White Fang. While Dai was certainly strong enough, he could only serve as a deterrent.

However, if we want to use the three legendary ninjas as allies, there is an issue that cannot be ignored.

That's the final boss, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was the teacher of the three legendary Sannin, and with whom he had an extraordinary relationship.

Even at this moment, Tsunade and Orochimaru both harbored ambitions for that position, considering it their rivalry.

This is an obstacle he must overcome.

Uehara Shimei was filled with horror when Orochimaru spoke again.

"I have a general idea of ​​what Uehara-kun wants to do. Don't worry about anything, just move forward boldly."

The windmill itself can turn; it's just missing that one wisp of wind.

Originally, I wanted to transform myself into the wind, personally turning the windmill.

But now it seems that there is no need for that anymore. Uehara-kun is the real wind, bringing the wind of change.

If the child of prophecy is Uehara-kun, then I'm willing to believe it too.

Orochimaru left.

He waved his sleeves, leaving not a trace behind.

Standing there, Uehara Siming frowned deeply.

Logically speaking, it should be a good thing that Orochimaru expressed his support in advance, but the feeling that something was beyond his control made him very uneasy.

Regarding the Three Ninja, I had originally prepared a complete plan.

However, at present, this plan has not even met the prerequisites for implementation, let alone started.

Uehara Siming wasn't in a hurry at first.

After all, he hasn't even turned twelve yet, and it will be at least ten years before he officially becomes Hokage.

That's enough to accomplish everything planned.

Moreover, by then, the power and influence I possess will be completely different from what I had before, and even if some plans fail, it won't be a big deal.

Uehara Siming tried hard to find loopholes in her past plans, but to no avail.

After sitting for a moment, he suddenly stood up and went to Orochimaru's commanding position.

I immediately opened the files inside and started searching.

Soon, a seemingly ordinary death report and the accompanying ninja information came into view.

Name: Uchiha Nanfeng

Age: 23

Rank: Jonin

Mission experience...

The document itself wasn't anything special, but the moment Uehara Siming saw it, her pupils involuntarily contracted.

A genius on par with Fugaku Uchiha, the grandson of the Fourth Elder, he successfully awakened the Three Tomoe at the age of nineteen and is one of the strong contenders for the next clan leader.

These are not important,

What's truly important is that, unlike Fugaku, he's a staunch hawk and also the agent secretly chosen by himself and Mikoto.

Uehara Siming stared blankly at the document.

Not long after, his eyes suddenly gleamed brightly.

But while excited, he also seemed terrified, with a layer of cold sweat beading on his forehead.

“Mikoto, it seems we’ve misunderstood something. The hawks and doves are actually just pawns of the higher-ups.”

Damn it, I almost messed things up.

Chapter 88 Itachi Uchiha Breaks Through the Great Defense, Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan

Uehara Siming slapped her forehead hard, her expression turning extremely annoyed.

When did I become one of those fools who only see the surface?

On his first day in the world of Naruto, he tried his best to discard the influence of the original plot and some of its so-called conclusions on him.

Strive to use the perspective and thinking of a modern person.

I need to re-evaluate this ninja world and assess every character and every event.

Because no matter how long a comic or anime is, it's impossible to record or show everything.

If it were like the protagonists of many fanfiction novels...

Blindly acting based on one's own one-sided assumptions, and blindly believing that watching the Naruto anime means understanding the truth of this cruel world.

His final performance might not even be as good as Itachi Uchiha's, and more likely he'll die without even knowing how.

As the author of "Those Things About the Ming Dynasty" said,

"History is actually very cruel. Every name represents a person with flesh and blood, but in a history book, a single line can summarize a person's entire life. When you turn a page, you've already passed through the lives of many people."

"We look at history like we look at photographs, but real history is three-dimensional, and a person's decision is the result of a combination of many factors."

We think he's foolish, but if we were in the same situation, we'd probably be even worse.

"History only records a moment; you don't know what happened before or after that."

From the very beginning, he treated the Naruto manga as an information source, one that he needed to verify personally.

However, it was ultimately unavoidable that it was influenced by the one-sided perspective of the original work.
