Naruto: Mikoto and Tsunade, don't let either of them go.

"Is there really no way to punish that guy? How can I face my father and mother?"

Uchiha Kakuzan patted Sasuke on the shoulder and then said:

"Sasuke, don't worry, you still have a chance."

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, Sasuke abruptly raised his head, his eyes filled with hope:

"Teacher, is there any other way?"

Uchiha Kakuzan looked at Sasuke and said:

"Actually, that leader was also afraid of me and didn't want to provoke our Uchiha clan, so he made a deal with me."

"Once you've grown up, he'll allow you to fight Itachi one-on-one. He won't interfere with who wins or loses."

Uchiha Kakuyama paused for a moment, stroked Sasuke's head, and then said:

"Sasuke, don't worry. Don't think that just because you're not as strong as Itachi right now, you're at the age where your strength will explode."

However, it would be very difficult for Itachi to improve his strength further, which is why he targeted his parents.

He's too obsessed with improving his strength, sigh...

Sasuke, who hadn't been very confident, asked with some anticipation after hearing Qiushan-kun's words:

"Teacher, do I still have a chance to catch up with Itachi?"

"Don't worry, after I'm done with my work, I'll take you back to the Uchiha clan for proper training and cultivation."

"Your Sharingan has now awakened to the three-tomoe stage. Believe me, your strength will experience an explosive improvement."

Uchiha Kakuzan wouldn't send Sasuke to Orochimaru like in the original story.

In his view, Sasuke, whom he had trained, might not be any worse than Orochimaru.

Moreover, Orochimaru's series of snake ninjutsu and Heaven's Curse Seal, while capable of enhancing strength, are simply too disgusting.

Furthermore, Orochimaru trained Sasuke because he wanted his body so he could possess the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, the training of Sasuke was only for their own future and may not necessarily be suitable for Sasuke himself.

The Uchiha clan has not been wiped out, so they naturally have their own methods for cultivating their members, which is the source of confidence for a large clan with a thousand-year history.

Hearing his teacher's words, Sasuke's spirits lifted, and he eagerly asked:

"Teacher, can't you send me to the tribe's territory right now? I want to start training right now."

Uchiha Kakuzan shook his head and explained:

"Even if I send you back now, I won't have time to train you. You'll have to stay in Kakashi's class for now."

Kakashi's Lightning Release is quite good; you can ask him for advice during this time.

Given his connection to our Uchiha clan and my influence, I believe he won't refuse you.

Sasuke, somewhat embarrassed by what Qiushan-kun said, replied:

"Actually, Kakashi-sensei has already started teaching me, and I have already mastered the Lightning Release: Chidori that he taught me."

Uchiha Kakuzan nodded and said:

"Then you can continue learning. You are naturally suited to learning Fire Release and Lightning Release."

"Our Uchiha clan has plenty of Fire Release techniques; you should learn Lightning Release first."

Sasuke didn't object to his teacher's arrangements at all; for him now, all that mattered was improving his strength.

Uchiha Kakuzan comforted Sasuke again before leaving. He really wasn't lying; he genuinely had something to do.

When Qiu Shan-jun arrived at the Hokage's office, just as he was about to greet Tsunade...

Suddenly, I noticed that Tsunade was different from usual. Although she was sitting upright at her desk, she was lost in thought, and the documents in front of her hadn't been touched for a long time.

Qiu Shan-jun didn't dare to disturb Tsunade-nee rashly. Instead, he looked at Shizune beside him, knowing best if anything was wrong with Tsunade-nee.

Shizune already knew when Qiushan-jun arrived, and when he looked over, she silently shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.

Actually, Tsunade's state started this morning. Shizune herself had reminded her, but it didn't help much. She was still often spacing out and daydreaming, which worried Shizune a lot.

Uchiha Kakuyama slowly walked to Tsunade's side and gently called out to her, waking her from her daze.

Seeing the sorrow in Tsunade's eyes, Qiu Shanjun gently pulled her into his arms and asked:

"Tsunade-neechan, what's wrong? Can you tell me?"

In his memory, Tsunade had always been a mature and cheerful person, and he rarely saw her worrying or anxious.

Tsunade was held in Qiushan-jun's arms. She didn't want to say anything at first, but after thinking about it, she decided to speak up anyway:

"Qiu Shan Jun, do you think Second Grandfather will be very angry about us being together?"

Upon hearing Tsunade's words, Uchiha Kakuzan understood what Tsunade was worried about and comforted her:

"It's alright. After I resurrect my great-grandfather and second great-grandfather through the Impure World Reincarnation, I will explain it to them properly."

Besides, even if my second grandfather disagrees, it's none of his business. After all, we're from two different worlds now.

Uchiha Kakuzan understood Tsunade's concerns. He had also spoken to Tsunade about the resurrection yesterday. He wanted to revive Senju Nawaki to fulfill Tsunade's regret.

Chapter 344 Tobirama Senju, whose title was banned

Chapter 344 Tobirama Senju, whose title has been sealed

Uchiha Kakuyama understood Tsunade's concerns.

Originally, the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, harbored a particular hatred for the Uchiha clan.

You can see this by looking at the ninjutsu he invented; many of them are specifically designed to target the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

For example, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique is a clone technique that even the Sharingan cannot see through.

The Flying Thunder God Technique is the precursor to the Flying Thunder God Slash.

That's right, it's the ninjutsu that killed Uchiha Madara's younger brother, Uchiha Izuna.

And then there's the illusion he left behind—the Dark Walk spell—which can strip the target of all light from their eyes.

Who do you think this illusion is targeting?

As the most famous clan in the ninja world for its dojutsu (eye techniques), the Uchiha clan should have a lot to say about this matter.

So, when Qiu Shan-jun was discussing with Tsunade yesterday about reviving Senju Nawaki, he also wanted to use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama from the Pure Land, so that Tsunade could reunite with them.

Tsunade, who was well aware of her great-uncle's hostility towards the Uchiha clan, was somewhat worried about their meeting.

After understanding what Tsunade was worried about, Uchiha Kagami chuckled and gently pinched Tsunade's delicate cheek, saying:

"If you're so worried, why don't you just not summon your great-grandfather and second great-grandfather for now, and we can talk about it later?"

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing what Qiu Shan-jun said; she simply didn't have the courage to face her somewhat stern second grandfather.

It wasn't that she was afraid of him, but rather that she was afraid of hurting him. After all, his most beloved granddaughter ended up marrying the head of the Uchiha clan, whom he had once been hostile to his entire life.

In fact, Uchiha Kakuzan genuinely wanted to meet the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

If the First Hokage laid the foundation for Konoha Village with his own powerful strength, then the subsequent management and development actually relied on the Second Hokage.

Compared to his elder brother's overwhelming strength, Tobirama Senju, as the second-in-command of Konoha, was considerably weaker.

However, that's only in comparison to Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, who were both overpowered.

Tobirama Senju himself possessed exceptional strength, wisdom, and talent.

It appears that Hashirama Senju was the first Hokage of Konoha.

In fact, it was always Tobirama Senju who was helping his older brother manage Konoha Village.

Hashirama Senju's success in becoming the First Hokage of Konoha was also inextricably linked to Tobirama Senju, who was behind the scenes.

In terms of strength, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were the two unparalleled geniuses in the entire ninja world at that time, far surpassing everyone else.

But when it comes to brains, even if Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were combined, they wouldn't be enough for Tobirama Senju to handle with one hand.

Moreover, Tobirama Senju's talent for inventing ninjutsu was also maxed out.

It's fair to say that the Uchiha clan has the final say on whether the ninja world is in chaos or not.

If they want to make things even more chaotic, then it depends on how ruthless Tobirama Senju's forbidden techniques are.

It's important to know that in the Naruto lineage, both the Flying Thunder God Technique, the signature ninjutsu of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, and the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, which was most suitable for the Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki, were invented by Tobirama Senju.

In the end, it was Kabuto Yakushi, who possessed the forbidden technique invented by the Second Hokage—the Impure World Reincarnation—who summoned all the Kage and many powerful ninjas from the Pure Land, leaving the Allied Shinobi Forces in a sorry state.

If it weren't for Itachi Uchiha using an unprecedented forbidden Uchiha technique—Izanami—the final outcome would still be uncertain.

It's fair to say that the ninjutsu invented by Tobirama Senju could influence the development and direction of the entire ninja world. (Suddenly, I understand the First Hokage's feelings. 'Brother, I've invented another ninjutsu, it's so useful!' 'Okay, seal it up, write it into the Scroll of Seals.')

Even Uchiha Kakuzan's Six Paths Dojutsu—Outer Path—Rinne Rebirth Technique, will be used in conjunction with the Impure World Reincarnation Technique to ensure that nothing goes wrong during his resurrection.

First, use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon the soul of the person to be resurrected from the Pure Land. Then, use the Samsara Rebirth technique to create a new, intact physical body for them. In this way, the resurrection can be completed.

In fact, the creation of a physical body in the Samsara Rebirth Technique is one application of the creation of all things in Yang Release. Back when Mike Kay used the ultimate technique of the Eight Gates and opened the Gate of Death, almost kicking out the final chapter...

Kai's body was almost turned into a pile of charred remains.

If Naruto hadn't used Yang Release on him, he would never have survived.

It was only because the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was overshadowed by Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, and also because he died young, that the entire ninja world trembled in his shadow. Otherwise, if he had lived to the age of the Third Hokage, the entire ninja world would have trembled in his presence.

The Uchiha clan may have already become history before Uchiha Okayama was even born.

So, whether out of curiosity or something else, Uchiha Kakuzan wanted to meet Senju Tobirama.

Of course, if possible, he could also copy Tobirama Senju's Flying Thunder God Technique, although this space-time ninjutsu wouldn't significantly improve his strength.

However, if we're talking about who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique the best, it would undoubtedly be the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

However, as we all know, Minato Namikaze's soul is still inside the Shinigami's belly, and there's nothing we can do to release him. Let this talented Fourth Hokage, who died young, stay inside the Shinigami's belly.

Since Tsunade doesn't want to face her second grandfather, Qiushan-jun certainly won't force her.

Anyway, after a while, when Orochimaru wants to cause trouble in Konoha, he'll use the Impure World Reincarnation to summon the First and Second Hokage back. At that time, Uchiha Kakuyama can then decide whether to copy the ninjutsu he wants.

However, perhaps due to the nature of the resurrection materials, in the original story, although Orochimaru summoned the First and Second Hokage, their strength was greatly limited, and they couldn't even defeat an old monkey.

In fact, Uchiha Kakuyama felt that this could be considered a kind of romance for Orochimaru.

After all, as the perfected user of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, he naturally knew the strength of the First and Second Hokage he had summoned.

The Third Hokage, already old and frail, died under the combined attack of the First, Second, and Orochimaru, which can be considered a dignified death.

However, what Orochimaru didn't expect was that his teacher lacked martial ethics. After sealing the First and Second Hokage with the Reaper Death Seal, he almost took Orochimaru with him.

Chapter 345 Preparations for Resurrection

Chapter 345 Preparations for Resurrection

Actually, what Uchiha Kakuyama found somewhat regrettable was that if he hadn't been worried that the First and Second Hokage would cause him trouble after being resurrected, Kakuyama would have resurrected them as well.

Imagine how exciting it would be if the First and Second Hokage, who had already been resurrected, appeared before Orochimaru when he invaded Konoha and used the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Speaking of Orochimaru, who is recognized as a scientific madman in the ninja world, he is surprisingly unreliable.

Since they were already able to resurrect the Second Hokage using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, why would they use him as a combatant to send the Third Hokage to his death?

Wouldn't it be better to keep the Second Hokage alive and discuss and develop experiments with him? With the Second Hokage's intelligence, he would definitely make groundbreaking progress in Orochimaru's research.

Moreover, you should know that people who are resurrected through Edo Tensei basically have unlimited chakra and energy. Having a second-generation shogun who can work tirelessly and is also extremely intelligent to help them is something that can only happen in a dream.

In other words, Uchiha Kakuyama had his own path to follow; otherwise, he would have done it long ago.

Thinking too far ahead.

Uchiha Kakuzan patted his head, barely managing to come to his senses.

Seeing that Tsunade was no longer distracted, Uchiha Kakuzan gave her a quick kiss on her charming face before saying:

"Tsunade-neechan, is everything ready?"

Tsunade wiped the drool off her face with a hint of disgust and said irritably:

"Don't worry, I've left it all to Shizune. She's an excellent medical ninja, so she can handle these small matters without any problem."

Tsunade paused, then looked at Qiu Shan-jun with suspicion:

"Speaking of which, Mr. Qiushan, the price you paid for this resurrection must have been very high, and after this, the time interval for resurrecting someone else next time will probably be quite long, right?"

Uchiha Kakuzan nodded and said:
