Uchiha: Starting as Tobirama's Jinchuriki

I feel like this is pretty much all you're capable of...

The Sage of Six Paths' expression can be described in one word: tense.

You're getting all worked up just because I said you're fat... Do you really think my son's chakra is all bad? Without Indra's chakra, you'll never awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in this lifetime!

"Alright, alright, Madara, this isn't the time to talk about this..." Hashirama Senju stopped Madara Uchiha, glanced at the Sage of Six Paths, and muttered under his breath:

"But it's true, being reincarnated is really not a good thing... Who wants to be someone else's substitute?"

The Six Paths Immortal was speechless.

Even the reincarnation of Ashura's chakra thinks so?

"Sage of Six Paths, you can revive Ashura and Indra, right? They are also powerful forces... Now that things have come to this, we must do what Qing Shui said and strive forward, instead of giving up..."

Tobirama Senju gestured for everyone to be quiet and said in a deep voice, "The words that Aozumi told Yekura are illogical, but they are a coded message that I can understand!"

"What Aozumi and Yokura emphasized—that the power of the Rabbit Goddess comes from belief—actually means that we must believe she can defeat Kaguya, and never give up..."

"Think about it, why did Qing Shui and Ye Cang meet in Konoha, but ultimately return to the Blackwater Nine Dragon Coffin, and transform into Kaguya's appearance upon reappearing?"

"There's only one answer! Aoshui wasn't able to suppress Kaguya at the beginning. Even if Aoshui was prepared, how could an ordinary person withstand the power of the Otsutsuki? That Uchiha Obito possessed eye power comparable to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, but the heavily injured Isshiki still easily possessed him..."

Tobirama Senju took a deep breath: "But Aoi still managed to do it! At least, he pulled Kaguya, who had already escaped, back into the coffin..."

"Why did he look for Yekura? Because Aomine had no other choice but to seize the opportunity to rebel against Kaguya at a very short time, and it just so happened that he met Yekura!"

The Sage of Six Paths slowly nodded, acknowledging Tobirama Senju's analysis.

“You’re right… With Kaguya’s mother’s power, possessing a mortal would be far too easy… The current situation is probably that Kaguya, upon seeing the Otsutsuki pursuers she was terrified of, fell into extreme mental panic, just like a thousand years ago. Aoshui seized this opportunity and regained control of the body.”

"The power that Qingshui has displayed is a combination of his eye techniques, combat skills, Kaguya's bloodline, and the bloodlines of many Otsutsuki clans he has replicated!"

The Sage of Six Paths said with utmost seriousness, "Although I don't want to mention it... just like the influence of Ashura and Indra on their reincarnations, the bloodline and chakra of the Otsutsuki clan will definitely have a great influence on Aozumi's thinking!"

"If we can bring back Aozuki, then we will gain a guardian deity with boundless love in his heart and the combined power of many Otsutsuki clans..."

"If we fail, the ninja world will soon face a Blue Water who is far more terrifying than Kaguya, Isshiki, or any Otsutsuki we have ever seen!"

"We had no choice... I want to emphasize to everyone that what Qingshui meant by creating an alternate dimension as a refuge for everyone was merely an expression of his remaining emotions and humanity from when he merged with the Otsutsuki..."

"But if our power cannot make Aoki acknowledge his nature of worshipping power, I think it will prevail in Aoki's mind, thus making him abandon everything from the past."

Tobirama Senju suddenly waved his hand: "Resurrect Ashura and Indra, Sage of Six Paths! Our time is running out..."

"The entire ninja world must unite and let that damned Otsutsuki bloodline know that we will never be afraid of power and abandon the effort to save Aoshui!"

Chapter 273 The Six Paths Ninja World Alliance is officially established, never before has it been so grand.

The Otsutsuki trio of souls...

Tobirama Senju's reasoning, after being supplemented and approved by the Sage of Six Paths, and combined with the information provided by Sasuke Uchiha and Pakura, received unanimous approval from the ninjas present...

This is a special kind of war.

Their enemy is the Otsutsuki bloodline, which gave Aomine power and also made Aomine's thinking extreme...

"Everyone, do you remember how Qing Shui seized consciousness from Kaguya?"

Tobirama Senju spoke in a deep voice, "It was Urashiki and Momoshiki who suppressed Kaguya, thus giving Aomizu an opportunity! Now, we must play the roles of Urashiki and Momoshiki..."

"When our power is strong enough to contend with Qingshui, Qingshui's human side will naturally have room to suppress the extremes of the Otsutsuki clan, thus returning to its original state."

Orochimaru, who had been watching Hamura Otsutsuki closely, coughed lightly and said slowly, "What Lord Tobirama said is correct..."

"The Otsutsuki chakra guides Aoisui in his pursuit of individual power and perfection. If we can use methods that counter this with 'unity,' 'cooperation,' and 'bonds' to suppress Aoisui, we will achieve better results."

Orochimaru, an expert in the art of possession, offered his insightful opinions and suggestions.

Upon seeing Orochimaru, Tobirama Senju glanced at him and said calmly, "Not bad, you do have some insight. That monkey has really raised another good student. Not only is he a master of research, but his survival skills are also unexpectedly strong..."

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow, was he mocking him for not being able to survive the Totsuka Blade?

Orochimaru initially wanted to give up, after all, he really couldn't defeat Tobirama Senju.

But then I thought about it...

Things are different now. Given the special circumstances in Qingshui, unity is the overriding theme. Even Tobirama Senju would not be able to settle scores with him at this time...

What's there to be afraid of? Let's start the laning phase!

"Grandmaster Tobirama, it's all thanks to your excellent teaching. I haven't even grasped the essence, nor have I improved upon other people's ninjutsu, yet you claim it as your own original creation..."

Orochimaru said elegantly, "I still need you to continue learning. I will try to learn the Orochimaru Substitution Technique of the Tobirama Style as soon as possible."

Tobirama Senju's face darkened.

Orochimaru was referring to Tobirama Senju's claim that his Orochi-ryu Substitution Technique was a modified version of the technique he and Aozumi had developed...

For a professional researcher, being caught plagiarizing someone else's work is a very embarrassing thing.

In the original timeline, Tobirama Senju, who was dedicated to protecting the copyright of Shadow Clones and Flying Thunder God Technique, was caught red-handed by Orochimaru, a fellow practitioner, and subjected to a barrage of sarcastic remarks…

Uchiha Izuna immediately saw through what was going on and laughed, "You're still young, Orochimaru. Tobirama Senju was like that..."

"He always says that the Uchiha clan's Sharingan can only copy, but in reality, he's extremely envious. Otherwise, why would he keep targeting the Uchiha clan? It's just jealousy!"

Tobirama Senju's gaze sharpened as he looked at his two defeated opponents.

But then he realized... Now was the time to call on everyone to unite and sincerely prove the power of the collective to Qingshui...

Taking action is out of the question.

The problem is that being caught plagiarizing in person is indeed quite embarrassing for a master of forbidden arts.

"Learning from others...learning from others doesn't count as plagiarism! That's innovation, you know? In scientific research, is it still considered plagiarism?"

Tobirama Senju blushed, and then launched into a series of incomprehensible words—something about how if Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki hadn't stopped him, he would have invented the Substitution Jutsu himself long ago, and whether he understood the value of the Scroll of Seals, etc...

For a moment, the battlefield was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

The Sage of Six Paths sighed softly as he watched this scene.

Indeed, if everyone stays calm and reasonable, the world is a much more pleasant place…

The problem is, if it weren't for Aokiji standing in front of everyone, Tobirama Senju would probably have made his move after Orochimaru said those words.

No, these people will never unite; they will fight until the other side completely collapses…

The Sage of Six Paths had a strange premonition.

"The reason I had Ashura and Indra reincarnate repeatedly was so that the two brothers could find a way to resolve their conflict... Unfortunately, for thousands of years, it has only led to the repeated resurgence of war in the ninja world..."

"Although they can organize teams, they always end up in a binary opposition; the ninja world has never been in a state of complete unity..."

The Sage of Six Paths glanced over Tobirama Senju, Izuna Uchiha, and the others who were bickering, and let out a long breath.

Although the old conflicts still exist.

Overall, however, maintaining a state of verbal sparring without physical confrontation, where both sides fight but don't break apart, is the best situation we've seen since the birth of the Ninja Sect...

"If... if we could awaken Qingshui's humanity and suppress the demonic nature of the Otsutsuki clan, then perhaps peace would truly return..."

The Sage of Six Paths murmured to himself, "Of all the people I've seen, only he can unite the descendants of Indra and Ashura, and gain the approval of the other ninjas."

"Is the only answer to the road to peace really the Qingshui River?"

Thinking of this, the Sage of Six Paths suddenly asked, "Have you heard of Mount Myōboku? Has any news of the prophesied child come from there...?"

Tobirama Senju snorted irritably, "Of course, those charlatan toads have long had their eyes on Aoshui..."

"If Mount Myōboku is willing to work hard to help the ninja world, then there is still room for negotiation in the future regarding their attempt to invade Konoha. Otherwise, I will definitely pursue them to the end!" Tobirama Senju said coldly.

The Sage of Six Paths' eyes lit up. He wasn't concerned with Tobirama Senju's assessment of Mount Myōboku…

In the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, this Senju with the Mangekyou Sharingan was far more extreme than the average Uchiha... It's unreasonable that they've been criticizing him for so long and still won't let go!

The key point is that Gamamaru's prophecy is indeed related to Seisui!

"Remember to stay united..." the Sage of Six Paths reminded them, interrupting Tobirama Senju, and looked around at everyone: "Do any of you know the specific description of the Child of Prophecy from Mount Myōboku?"

Tobirama Senju narrowed his eyes, but remained silent.

With the Sage of Six Paths already half-redeemed, we still need to rely on his continued efforts, so it's not appropriate to make things too tense.

At this moment, with Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya absent, it seemed that no one really knew the exact story of Mount Myōboku, only that it was vaguely related to the Blue Water.

"This is important..."

The Sage of Six Paths emphasized again: "Don't be prejudiced against Mount Myōboku. They also contributed a lot when I defeated Kaguya."

Tobirama Senju glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said calmly, "Monkey, you don't even know this? I think you've completely lost control of your snake disciple, and your toad disciple is the same?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi shuddered.

He actually knew the specifics of Mount Myōboku... Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze had once come to the Hokage's office to ask for his support, only to be reprimanded by him.

However, judging from Tobirama Senju's demeanor, Hiruzen Sarutobi initially chose to remain silent.

Even if their own teacher and Uchiha Izuna were arguing, they were still outsiders. While they were supposed to unite to save Aoshui, they still had the basic courtesy of not resorting to violence...

But he's different.

As Tobirama Senju's apprentice, Hiruzen Sarutobi was certain that if he were to voluntarily come out and launch into a long explanation of Mount Myōboku, as if he knew it by heart, then he would definitely be marked by Tobirama Senju!

Especially considering she had just been reprimanded by Orochimaru, she held a grudge against him for everything…

It's a case of the apprentice making a mistake, and the teacher taking responsibility.

"A prophetic child who wields multiple powers, yearns for peace yet inadvertently instigates war, and emerges from taboo..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi tried hard to recall Jiraiya's words and slowly said, "That's roughly it. There might still be some uncertainties. We can go back to Konoha and find Jiraiya to confirm."

"Sage of the Six Paths, if you are familiar with Mount Myōboku, could you also ask them to lend a hand?"

And after Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking.

The Sage of Six Paths suddenly revealed a look of delight, stroking his long beard as he said, "Excellent! What a prophetic child who has emerged from the forbidden realm, bringing war while wishing for peace..."

"As expected of Gamamaru, his predictions are always so accurate!"

Tobirama Senju frowned, as if he had figured out a connection.

These toads seem to have some tricks up their sleeves?

In summary, this prophecy states that the Blue Water can bring both peace and destruction, and that the power of Mount Myōboku is needed to mediate its effects so that it can get back on track…
