Uchiha: Becoming the Strongest Hokage from Scratch

"no."

Hashirama Senju rejected his younger brother's murderous suggestion without even thinking.

He raised his head, and his eyes, which always held a gentle smile, now revealed an idealistic persistence.

"Tobirama's attack on Uchiha Tsuki goes against our ideal of achieving peace through mutual understanding."

Tobirama Senju almost laughed in exasperation.

"Brother! Now is not the time for you to talk about ideals!" he pleaded earnestly. "Uchiha Tsukuyomi is a schemer and an ambitious man; he is unworthy of our peace ideals!"

He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and spoke very quickly.

"He was certain his elder brother wouldn't attack him, so he's been running around doing everything he can to build up his strength!"

"If we don't act now, it will be too late once he's fully grown!"

He paused, lowering his voice even further, filled with a gnashing hatred.

"Moreover, the Uchiha clan is inherently evil and is fundamentally incapable of true mutual understanding!"

They are inherently arrogant, conceited, and ruthless in achieving their goals! If this continues, the future of this world will surely be filled with even greater turmoil!

"snort."

A cold laugh came from the side.

Madara Uchiha slowly straightened up, his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan silently activating. "Tobirama Senju, are you the epitome of justice?"

Before he could finish speaking, Madara Uchiha made a sudden move. His second-stage Susanoo suddenly took shape, and his right hand shot out like lightning, grabbing at Tobirama Senju.

But just before Susanoo's hand was about to touch Tobirama, two hands simultaneously reached out from both sides, blocking it from the left and right.

"Madara, calm down," Hashirama Senju advised.

Ashina Uzumaki sighed. "You two, now is not the time for infighting."

Madara Uchiha glanced coldly at the two of them, slowly withdrew his hand, but did not turn off the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

"Everyone can call themselves Uchiha," he said coldly, staring at Tobirama Senju, "but you are the only one who doesn't deserve it!"

Tobirama Senju's face turned ashen, but he didn't say anything more. He knew what Madara Uchiha was talking about.

He still owes Uchiha Izuna a life... If it weren't for mutual understanding, and for the sake of peace, Uchiha Madara would never have let him go.

"Alright, alright." Hashirama Senju once again acted as peacemaker, patting Madara on the shoulder before turning to his younger brother, "Tobirama, apologize to Madara!"

Tobirama Senju took a deep breath and habitually apologized, but his mind remained unchanged.

Uchiha Light must die!

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Hashirama Senju gestured for everyone to sit down.

He picked up the intelligence report, his eyes full of praise. "Actually, Uchiha Tsuki's policy this time is very much in line with our peace ideals."

"The ninja academy is open to everyone, regardless of background. Isn't this the kind of equality we want, but have to compromise on?"

Tobirama Senju was driven to the brink of madness. How could his elder brother be speaking up for the enemy?

He opened his mouth to refute, but Hashirama stopped him by raising his hand.

"I know what you're trying to say, but right is right and wrong is wrong, regardless of who you are or what your stance is."

Hashirama Senju made his decision: "I think Uzumaki Village can follow suit!"

"Uchiha Tsuki's policy this time has given me a lot of inspiration! We not only need to establish ninja academies, but also similar ranking systems and promotion mechanisms!"

Madara Uchiha stared at him coldly for a long while before speaking, "I won't get involved in policy matters."

He got up and walked out of the tent.

"Where are you going?" Hashirama Senju asked.

"There are many unstable factors around us." Madara Uchiha said without turning his head, "I'm going to go and talk to them."

His voice was calm, but the temperature inside the tent seemed to have dropped a few degrees.

Hashirama Senju frowned. "Madara, remember, you must talk in a peaceful and mutually understanding manner."

Madara Uchiha paused at the tent entrance, without turning around or saying a word, but simply nodded slightly before lifting the curtain and walking out.

A brief silence fell inside the tent.

Ashina sighed. "Hashirama, don't you really think Uchiha Tsuki, or even Uchiha Madara... are a threat?"

"Madara is my best friend, a like-minded friend!" Hashirama Senju said earnestly. "Uchiha Tsukuyomi is not a threat either; on the contrary, he is a fellow believer in peace."

He paused, "Although the methods are different, as long as the goal is the same, and if we can understand each other, it's not impossible in the future..."

"Brother." Tobirama Senju couldn't take it anymore and suddenly stood up to interrupt him, "I still need to arrange for the reception of those who have joined the group, I'm leaving now."

Hashirama Senju paused for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, you take some men to the border to meet us. It will show us more sincerity."

"Hmm." Tobirama Senju responded and turned to leave the tent.

As he stepped out of the central tent, Tobirama Senju's expression turned completely cold.

Peace? Understanding?

Someone like Uchiha Tsuki is impossible to understand or influence.

His ambition is too great and his methods too dirty. If left unchecked, he will surely become the greatest threat to the peace of Uzushiogakure and even the entire ninja world in the future.

Since my brother doesn't support it, I'll do it secretly.

That's how it's always been: do it first, then admit your mistake. Even as the older brother, there's nothing anyone can do about it, let alone anyone else.

Without stopping, Tobirama Senju walked straight towards the Senju clan's territory and the residences of several other clans.

He quickly gathered more than twenty elite ninjas, including not only Senju clan members, but also experts from the Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane, and Mitomon clans.

"Lord Tobirama, what mission are we going to carry out?" asked a ninja from the Sarutobi clan.

"Rescue the defecting groups." Tobirama Senju said expressionlessly. "Konoha is playing tricks again. Many groups that were originally going to join us have changed their routes. Let's go to the border and see how many we can bring back."

This reason is perfectly reasonable, and no one doubts it.

A quarter of an hour later, a group of more than twenty people quietly left Uzushiogakure and sped off toward the Land of Fire.

Tobirama Senju ran at the front of the group, his eyes cold.

Although he did not have the same strength as his elder brother, Uchiha Tsuki was not Uchiha Madara, so killing him would not be difficult, and might even be easy.

Even Uchiha Izuna, who possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, died at his own hands. This time, he brought so many skilled fighters with him, Uchiha Tsuki is doomed!

"Some things... always have to be done by someone."

Tobirama Senju muttered to himself, then suddenly made a gesture, leading the group to a halt.

"The mission has changed. We need to enter the Land of Fire and infiltrate Konoha Village, or ambush Uchiha Tsuki outside the village and kill him!"

Everyone was surprised, but no one objected; they all nodded in agreement.

Tobirama Senju glanced around, then nodded with satisfaction. "Very good. Next, let's discuss the specific arrangements for the mission..."

At the same time, Uchiha Yue, who had just finished reviewing the documents, stretched and patted his lover's thigh.

"What are you doing!" Uchiha Rin's face was flushed, her eyes darted around, and her words were stiff and fierce.

"Come on, let's go to the village entrance to greet those who have come to seek refuge. There are several big fish here."

call……

Rin Uchiha breathed a sigh of relief; she had thought Tsukuyomi was going to do something bad in broad daylight.

But while I can breathe a sigh of relief, what's with this feeling of loss?

"Hmph, who's going with you! I have to go supervise the construction, I'm off!"

Uchiha Yue watched her lover's departing figure and couldn't help but touch her nose.

"Never mind, let's go see the big fish who came to seek refuge this time."
