Uchiha: Becoming the Strongest Hokage from Scratch

Without Uchiha Tsuki's intervention, the Land of Waterfall would have been the sixth largest ninja country in the world at that time.

The strength of Takigakure was second only to the Five Great Hidden Villages in this era, and could be called the Sixth Hidden Village. Their leader was qualified to call himself Kage.

After all, Takigakure has the ability to independently capture tailed beasts and seal them into jinchūriki.

However, with the sudden emergence of Uchiha Tsuki, the Land of Waterfall and the Hidden Village of Waterfall naturally lost their former glory in the original timeline.

Therefore, the nation's foundation and strength should naturally become the resources for the Land of Fire to continuously grow stronger.

"First, upon returning to the village, immediately notify the frontline troops to confiscate the Hero's Water from Takigakure."

Uchiha Tsuki made the arrangements, and Nara Satoshi immediately took notes, as it was his duty as a secretary.

"Secondly, besides the Hero's Water, there is another very strange creature, or rather, a secret technique, in Takigakure, called Earth Grudge Fear, which we must also obtain."

"Third, all the sealing techniques, ninjutsu, and so on from Takigakure should be collected and incorporated into the village's ninjutsu system."

"Fourth, the same applies to the ninja villages of the provinces of Kagoshima, Yuri, and Kusa. Take everything that can make the village stronger, and do it quickly."

Uchiha Tsuki paused, then looked at Nara Satoshi, "Got it? Repeat it."

"First..." Nara Satoshi repeated from the beginning with a serious expression, without any mistakes or omissions.

"Hmm, very good. You will be in charge of this matter after we return to the village. Now clean up the battlefield, seal these heads of Takigakure ninja back as evidence of Takigakure's crimes."

Uchiha Tsuki gave the order again.

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

Nara Satoshi nodded, drew his ninja sword, and got to work. He was very efficient and finished everything in less than two minutes.

"Let's keep going!"

Uchiha Yue waved his hand and, with Satoshi in tow, embarked on his journey home once more.

……

Meanwhile, in Uzushiogakure (the village of whirlpools).

After calming down the group of young people in the village, Hashirama Senju returned to his clan's residence, exhausted.

He was really tired, both physically and mentally exhausted.

The village lost so many experienced and prudent elites at once. Although it wouldn't be crippling, the newly appointed young people acted impulsively and didn't understand his peaceful ideals.

"We must arm them with willpower, let them know what peace is, and what they exist for."

The prototype of the Will of Fire... no, the Will of the Vortex had probably already taken shape in Hashirama Senju's mind. Once he had thought it through, he planned to proclaim this will to the villagers.

"Big brother, you're being led by the nose by Uchiha Tsukuyomi again!"

Tobirama Senju's tone was not good; it was full of resentment and disappointment.

Even though he was under house arrest this time, he didn't participate in it, nor did he receive any information.

But just by thinking about it, it's clear that Uchiha Tsukuyomi once again took advantage of his older brother's personality to gain a great deal of benefit and buy himself some breathing room.

"Ah, we suffered a bit of a loss, but we gained peace, didn't we?"

Snapped!

Tobirama Senju slapped his forehead, looking at his older brother's simple and even somewhat dazed appearance, and didn't know what to say.

"I warned Tsuki-kun." Hashirama Senju became serious in an instant. "This is the last time, and Konoha under Tsuki-kun's leadership has lost all initiative."

Hearing his elder brother say this, Tobirama Senju's eyes lit up. Had his elder brother finally figured it out?

"Brother, tell me in detail." He immediately sat down next to Hashirama Senju and inquired about the outcome of their negotiations.

However... the more he listened, the darker his face became. He really shouldn't have had any hope for his older brother.

First, the Land of Whirlpools must compensate the Land of Fire for the losses incurred and bear the corresponding military expenses.

Secondly, the Land of Whirlpools must issue an official and formal apology to the Land of Fire.

Finally, there was the peace resolution for the countries surrounding the Land of Fire, and the restrictions imposed on Uchiha Tsuki.

In Tobirama Senju's view, these terms were utterly stupid and utterly pathetic.

He could have easily eliminated Uchiha Tsukichi with his fists and forced him to submit with his strength, but his older brother simply refused to do so!

Even though Tobirama Senju knew this was part of his elder brother's personality and unique charm, but...

It's so frustrating to run into someone like Uchiha Tsukuyomi!

"Big brother, Uchiha Tsuki is too dangerous." Tobirama Senju was silent for a while, then decided to try a different approach to subtly probe.

"The fact that you can put restrictions on him means that you have seen through his true nature and understood his wolfish ambitions."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tobirama Senju observed his elder brother's expression and found that this time he did not resist.

It is clear that Hashirama Senju's behavior changed slightly because of Madara's departure; it was no longer so idealistic or naive.

This is a good thing.

He immediately pressed on, "Brother, the reason the ninja world is in turmoil, and why ninjas are constantly on the move, often going to the battlefield before they even reach adulthood, is ultimately due to the machinations of a few ambitious leaders!"

Tobirama Senju defined war, but he didn't dare to involve the daimyo of various countries; he only targeted Uchiha Tsukuyomi.

"The existence of Konoha is justified. The various ninja clans, ninjas, and civilians of Konoha all deeply love peace, but they have all been deceived by Uchiha Tsuki!"

"Big brother!" Tobirama Senju pleaded earnestly, "As long as Uchiha Tsuki exists, Konoha will become more dangerous, becoming a decisive factor affecting the peace of the ninja world."

For the sake of peace in the ninja world, for the sake of your ideals, killing Uchiha Tsukuyomi alone could achieve that. Why don't you do it?

Hashirama Senju fell silent upon hearing this.

He had thought about this before, not just with Uchiha Tsuki, but also with Madara.

Moreover, on the day Madara left the village, he even had the idea of ​​killing Madara immediately.

Bambi Moon is even more dangerous!

But he suppressed this idea, for a simple reason: he couldn't subjectively judge someone as guilty before they had even made a mistake.

"I know." Hashirama Senju nodded. "I fully support you on this point. Uchiha Tsuki is indeed too dangerous."

"That's right, big brother! He's a bigger threat than Madara Uchiha!" Seeing that there was a chance, Tobirama Senju immediately compromised, "Even if Uchiha Tsuki hasn't made a mistake yet, he definitely will in the future."

"We can hold him until he makes a mistake, but we must keep him under control and confine him to a safe limit."

To put it bluntly, Tobirama Senju has given up on killing Tsukuyomi Uchiha right now.

He can't do it on his own unless his elder brother takes action. And his elder brother will only stick to his principles and won't take the initiative to kill someone when they haven't made any mistakes.

But what if they imprison them?

This would resolve the danger without causing too much resistance from the eldest brother.

"In that case..." Hashirama Senju's eyes flickered, clearly agreeing with his younger brother's idea. "I'll consider it, but not now."

"call!"

Hearing his elder brother say this, Tobirama Senju was relieved. He would definitely go back and do what his elder brother said he was considering. The reason it wasn't now was because his elder brother felt that the time was not yet right.

"Big brother, can you lift my confinement now?"

"I came here today for this matter, but after your confinement is lifted, you must promise me that you will not initiate any more disputes or disrupt the peace of the ninja world."

How could Tobirama Senju possibly refuse? He immediately agreed.

He still has a lot to do, such as dealing with the Uchiha clan members left in the village after Madara Uchiha left, as well as calming the emotions within the village and planning its development.

More importantly, he must develop new ninjutsu to counter Uchiha Tsuki's abilities.

For example... techniques that counter Flying Thunder God Technique!
