Uchiha: Starting as Tobirama's Jinchuriki

Minato Namikaze glanced at Jiraiya speechlessly and shook his head.

For some reason, Minato Namikaze sometimes felt that Tsunade's gaze towards Aoshui was strange...

Although he didn't want to speculate on gossip, if it were true, and Qing Shui eventually accepted it...

I wonder how my teacher will react in the end…

Minato Namikaze chuckled, saying slyly, "Sensei, I'll do my best, but you'd better be prepared too..."

Jiraiya smiled confidently: "I definitely will!"

-

Qingshui headed towards the Cloud Hidden Battlefield at a leisurely pace.

"Without the Gedo Statue to extract the chakra of the Four-Tails and Five-Tails, it's clear that we can't obtain all of it..."

Qingshui examined the tailed beast chakra within his body; the total amount added up to about half of each.

The current problem is that these Ten-Tails' split forms cannot fuse on their own and still require the Gedo Mazo as a catalyst.

Just like the various blood vessels in Qing Shui's body, they need the Gui Ya Luo technique to bind them together initially.

"Although I don't have the Gedo Mazo, I can try to summon the real Gedo Mazo..."

Qingshui analyzed:

"The chakra of these tailed beasts essentially belongs to Kaguya Otsutsuki; the more you absorb, the more you become her sacrifice."

"Even her son, the Sage of Six Paths, forcibly extracted the Ten-Tails from his body and separated them, further demonstrating the danger of this thing; not just anyone can control it..."

If it's for the sake of peace in the ninja world, and to better suppress Kaguya.

Therefore, the most reliable method is for the Sage of Six Paths to continue serving as the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.

Forcibly extracting the Ten-Tails from his body only shows that even the Sage of Six Paths could not suppress the power belonging to Kaguya Otsutsuki. If this drags on any longer, he may encounter great trouble and end up in a situation even worse than barely surviving in the Pure Land.

In Qing Shui's view, this trouble would most likely result in becoming like Madara Uchiha, a sacrifice for Kaguya's resurrection...

"The power of the Ōtsutsuki clan is indeed not as simple as it seems..."

Qing Shui thought to himself, "Therefore, it is safest for me to have Kaguya Otsutsuki personally filter out the hidden dangers."

"First, I'll check on Shisui, Tsunade, and Orochimaru, adjust the layout a bit, then get the summoning scroll from Shikkotsu Forest to learn about Sage Mode, and while I'm at it, hear what other sages think about the toad prophecy..."

"I need to go check on the construction of Kirigakure afterwards..."

Honestly, I'm quite busy.

As the war has progressed, Qingshui's most important objectives remain Shisui and Obito Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan...

In addition to the confrontations with Kumogakure and Sunagakure, having gathered the earth and the sea, one naturally also needs the gale and lightning.

"Black Zetsu, I've given you this stage, so don't let me down..."

Qing Shui cheered for his brother in his heart, while his clone continued to monitor Hei Zetsu, waiting for his next move.

And at this moment.

Tobirama Senju finally couldn't hold back any longer and said urgently:

"Qingshui, do you really believe in that stone tablet and the prophecy? I have a feeling something's not right..."

"Don't rush, Tobirama."

Qingshui said slowly, "Don't you also have the Sharingan? You can come and take a look with me then."

Tobirama Senju tilted his head, suddenly feeling relieved.

Oh right, he also has Sharingan!

Let's take a look together with Qingshui...

This match is making me dizzy...

I finished writing four thousand words in a daze, and I'm still dizzy...

I feel like Teacher Dafei cured my insomnia; he knocked me out and gave me a good beating.

It's been a long time since I've felt so sleepy and couldn't hold on past 10 PM.

Chapter 179 Tobirama Senju, the Disliked One: Peace and Destruction are One

Does that mean...?

The Hidden Cloud Battlefield, Konoha Command Center.

"This new type of warfare is quite interesting to command..."

Orochimaru excitedly took out a marker and started sketching on the war map in front of him, marking strategically important bombing sites.

"Get me Tobirama!"

Orochimaru exhaled a long breath, had a Root ninja nearby connect him to the Root command center, and said in a deep voice:

"Request Tobirama's No. 1 and No. 2 base bombardments for the Cloud Hidden Battlefield, and allocate resources to us!"

"What? You mean the Third Hokage's Sand Village battlefield also needs it? That old man... Teacher doesn't understand how to use it, there's no need to give it to him."

Orochimaru, seemingly displeased at being rejected by command, said:

“The Sand Village has protective puppets, the Third Kazekage has Magnet Release which counters metal, and Chiyo is proficient in poison techniques. The new weapon will be least effective there. As the head of the Root Science Department, I've made the decision. Tell the Third Hokage to hold on and wait for our reinforcements!”

"You want me to contact Qingshui? Hmph... I get it!"

Orochimaru sighed, shook his head, and muttered to himself, "The old man is wasting all this good stuff..."

During his time leading his troops against the Hidden Cloud Village, Orochimaru had a great experience in warfare. The power of science and systems had become a tangible reality, giving this ninja scientist a sense of accomplishment in having his path proven.

Aside from Qingshui, only Orochimaru could flexibly utilize and command new weapons.

Unfortunately, even though Orochimaru is the head of science at Root, when it comes to the allocation of Tobirama-class weapons, Root's command will not follow his orders and must consult Aozumi's opinion.

"Orochimaru, you're heartless. Aren't you afraid your teacher will die on the battlefield?"

Tsunade scoffed at Orochimaru's words, "You certainly know how to use air support effectively..."

But it has to be said.

Under Orochimaru's command, even the Explosion Release bombs, which were countered by Lightning Release, caused sufficient damage.

"The old man is, after all, the Third Hokage. Sunagakure is one of the weakest of the great hidden villages, so he can handle this kind of thing..."

Orochimaru squinted, his long tongue unconsciously licking his lips:

"The production of Tobirama One and Two, along with the explosive jutsu bombs provided by air support, was no easy task. Any weapon or ninjutsu becomes significantly less effective once the enemy learns of it and the information leaks, so it's crucial that it's in the hands of knowledgeable individuals..."

Tsunade shook her head noncommittally, but her thoughts drifted from Hiruzen Sarutobi to Aozumi.

A war separated Qingshui and her.

She didn't know when it started, but Tsunade had grown accustomed to having her disciple by her side. As long as Aoshui was there, life seemed to be happy, warm, and hopeful...

Many times in the dead of night, Tsunade would smile from the bottom of her heart when she thought of Aoshui, but she would also wake up from nightmares.

War is a ruthless and terrifying hell.

Even someone as powerful as Tobirama Senju could lose his life...

If Qingshui dies...

Even just thinking about it makes Tsunade's mind conjure up images of the crimson blood that had once haunted her.

After being apart for a while, Tsunade realized more clearly how important Qingshui was to her; perhaps this was a process of reflection and growth…

"The command said that Aoshui killed about 10,000 Iwagakure ninjas and two Jinchuriki."

Tsunade's face showed a hint of worry as she slowly said, "I wonder if he's injured?"

Orochimaru gave Tsunade a rather strange look and shook his head.

When Tsunade is in love, she seems to be even more clueless than usual!

Haven't you seen how Qing Shui beat him and Jiraiya?

Qingshui, who possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique, also has so many bloodline limits…

In Orochimaru's view, apart from him, who had been preparing for a long time to use forbidden techniques to possess Qingshui, no one else had the possibility of harming Qingshui!

Following Minato Namikaze's sharp critique of Jiraiya, Orochimaru also mercilessly criticized his former classmate Tsunade.

We just need someone to give a sharp critique of Orochimaru's ideas...

The three members of Sarutobi's class, along with their teacher, all harbored unrealistic expectations of Aozumi.

"You should be thinking about the war right now, Tsunade..."

Orochimaru tapped the table, his gaze turning serious, and slowly said:

"Judging from the timeline, Qingshui's great victory on the Iwagakure battlefield was two days ago, while the Cloud Village's group charge was yesterday, which was repelled by my large-scale bombardment. It is estimated that the casualties were as many as a thousand."

"From this perspective, Iwagakure and Kumogakure do not share information, and they are not a strong alliance. This is what we need to analyze."

"If they share information, then the Hidden Cloud Village should have at least some defensive measures."

Tsunade nodded nonchalantly and said casually:

"It's nothing. Although these hidden villages have joined forces to attack Konoha, this is not the first time this has happened."

"During the First Shinobi World War, the struggle between Kirigakure and Iwagakure, and the rebellion within Kumogakure, this is the nature of ninjas."

Orochimaru glanced at Tsunade with considerable surprise.

It turns out that this seemingly brainless person actually has such insights, and even criticized the inherent flaws of ninjas.

"It seems I need to contact Qingshui; the war is probably about to enter its next phase..."

Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he said:

"Our stockpile of new weapons is declining, and the enemy is also facing a crisis of trust. Will the enemy unite, split, or cease hostilities? And how should we respond?"

"War is like an experiment with many variables; to achieve a perfect result, constant adjustments are needed..."

Tsunade waved her hand impatiently, not wanting to hear Orochimaru's aria-like lament, but she felt a little anxious.

finally…
