At this moment, Uchiha Madara looked very rational. These two light words had no credibility at all. How could these two words wipe out so much hatred between the two clans?

The ninja carefully observed Uchiha Madara's expression. After struggling for a long time, he tried to say:

"Master, the current external environment is extremely unfavorable to us. If we cannot become a member of the Ninja Alliance, the Uchiha clan may be besieged by several ninja clans at any time..."

"Many members of the clan are worried about how long this apparent peace can last. The Uchiha clan may be defeated at any moment."

"Alliance? Can a pile of rubble be used to look at the mountains? All enemies of Uchiha will be wiped out by this pair of eternal Mangekyō Sharingan..." said Uchiha Madara.

At this point, it couldn't even be said that he was arrogant, because his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan could indeed wipe out all enemies... as long as one certain enemy was excluded.

However, this kind of thing cannot be ruled out at all, so "invincibility" only exists in Uchiha Madara's imagination, and is not something he can touch in reality.

"But the tribe members do not understand the power of the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. Now everyone is seriously lacking in confidence. Lord, we should at least increase our strength by adding allies or some other means to boost everyone's confidence."

"Well, you have a point, but I only trust my people."

"So, what the patriarch means is..."

"Retrieve those Uchiha ninjas who have been bewitched and wandered abroad. Now is the time for us to overcome this difficult time together."

"This... seems like a good idea, Patriarch."

"Issue an order to all Uchiha ninjas. From now on, search for the so-called 'Eagle Organization' with all your strength. Once you find them, report to me immediately. Do you understand?"

"Ming, I understand."

"Why don't you go quickly?"

"Yes, patriarch!"

In any case, Sasuke and his Hawk Organization are operating around the Uchiha clan, so as long as the Uchiha clan is willing to look for them, it is not difficult to find their traces.

And because these Uchiha ninjas did not hide their intentions and traces at all, when they discovered Sasuke and others, Sasuke and others also noticed that they were under surveillance.

"Lord Wuming, they seem to be looking for us intentionally." said the ninja named Uchiha Kensuke, who had followed Sasuke for a long time.

"Kensuke, it's been a long time since Uchiha Madara showed up."

"Since the last incident, the patriarch has never appeared on the battlefield again."

"I understand...Everyone retreat, as quickly as possible."

Sasuke once heard the "masked version" of "Uchiha Madara" talk about the origin of his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, although now Sasuke knows that the man was just impersonating Uchiha Madara and what he said might not be true.

However, when it comes to the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, and considering the period when Uchiha Madara disappeared, Sasuke has reason to suspect that Madara has obtained the Eternal Mangekyō.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Uchiha Madara appeared behind them.

This time, Madara was mentally prepared in advance, so Sasuke could no longer use the summoning snake to transfer everyone away at once... It seemed that being caught up was a foregone conclusion.

Uchiha Kensuke also understood this. He gritted his teeth, slowed down again, and prepared to intercept Uchiha Madara.

"Master Patriarch, we..."

However, just as he opened his mouth, Madara's palm had already slapped him on the back, and with a thud, he fell from the top of the tree trunk to the ground.

Uchiha Kensuke's limbs were twisted, with an expression of disbelief on his face. His proud Sharingan would never have the chance to open again.

Sasuke suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked down at Uchiha Madara below with his "eyes", and then diagnosed Uchiha Madara like a skilled neurologist:

"You've gone mad."

Chapter 167: Death of a Sage (Part 2)

In fact, what Uchiha Madara did at this moment could only be considered a mistake. Life seemed to become extremely fragile when facing Uchiha Madara at this moment.

But it is undeniable that when Madara tried to stop Uchiha Kensuke, he did not consider the other party's life or death.

It was like he subconsciously eliminated a member of his tribe, just like a Super Saiyan easily eliminated a weakling.

However, how could the patriarch ignore the lives of his people? This is extremely unethical.

When Uchiha Kensuke fell to the ground, lifeless, Madara himself was stunned for a moment. At this moment, his emotions were between indifference and bewilderment...

However, these two emotions should not be the first reaction of the clan leader who accidentally hurt his clan members. Therefore, Sasuke's judgment that he "has gone crazy" cannot be said to be completely wrong.

But no matter what Uchiha Madara's psychology was like, whether his actions were based on some deep psychological reflection that he himself was not aware of, or whether it was just a mistake after his mind went blank, it didn't matter...

In short, this scene caused a great mental shock to the other Uchiha ninjas, that is for sure.

I'm stupid... No, it should be said that Uchiha ninjas are prone to extreme emotions, so how can they stand this kind of stimulation?

After all, they are the "family of love", so they really love each other.

It is one thing for an Uchiha ninja to die at the hands of the enemy, it is another thing to be assassinated within the clan, and it is another thing to be killed directly by the clan leader on the battlefield... Don't forget that before this, Uchiha Madara was labeled as "great, glorious, and righteous".

The great and righteous Uchiha Madara was stunned for only a moment, and then began to chase again.

By this time, he already knew that Sasuke was indeed a little unusual.

Previously, he thought that Sasuke's claim of "coming from the future" was just an extremely absurd deception, but what about now?

What Sasuke said actually came true, because Izuna really died at the hands of Senju Tobirama!

So, what Madara had previously thought was a "devious trick" turned out to be some kind of accurate "prophecy".

Now, Uchiha Madara's goal has changed from killing Sasuke to capturing Sasuke alive, because he is eager to communicate with Sasuke again... In fact, he feels a little regretful in his heart. Why couldn't he think more carefully when he was communicating with Sasuke?

Trust, why is it so difficult?

If I had chosen to believe this "Eagle" at that time, perhaps everything would have changed... Unfortunately, there is no if.

Uchiha Kensuke's death is indeed a pity, but in Madara's opinion, the best way to make up for this mistake is to capture Sasuke.

But this kind of thinking is a bit too contemptuous of Sasuke.

You can look down on Sasuke's strength, but you cannot look down on his temper... Don't be fooled by Sasuke's rational appearance. His character has been very stubborn from beginning to end, even stubborner than a bull terrier.

It was you who wanted to separate, so we separated. Now you want to use your strength to call me back?

You're overthinking it, Uchiha Madara. Do you really think the entire ninja world revolves around you?

If Sasuke had the idea of ​​cooperating with Uchiha Madara at the beginning, the death of Uchiha Kensuke made him completely give up this idea.

Faced with Uchiha Madara's relentless pursuit, Sasuke changed the formation. He stayed at the back of the team to block the "strong enemy" for other members of the organization.

Madara was only focused on moving forward, but he didn't notice that only half of the Uchiha ninjas who were originally following him were still chasing him.

The other half of the Uchiha ninjas were still in shock. They stood there in a daze, staring at Uchiha Kensuke's body as if they could not accept the reality.

After a while, a loud noise coming from afar finally brought them back to their senses.

These ninjas quickly came to Uchiha Kensuke, and the leading ninja squatted down. He looked at the other's dull expression, his profile covered with blood and mud, and his dull eyes, and his chest couldn't help but heaved violently.

This is probably what it means to die with regrets.

Thinking of this, the Uchiha ninja's eyes began to turn red due to excessive excitement, and unknowingly, he had opened the Sharingan.

He just felt a little...

not worth it.

The person must be dead, and dead means he will never come back to life.

After squatting there for a while, the ninja finally calmed down. He reached out and picked up Uchiha Kensuke's body, looked at the ninjas beside him, and said:

"let's go."

"Leave? Go after the clan leader?"

However, the leading ninja did not answer his companions' questions. He walked away from here, neither in the direction where Uchiha Madara had just left, nor in the direction where the Uchiha village was located.

He was once a ninja who believed deeply in the glory and reputation of the Uchiha clan. Looking back, it seemed like only yesterday that he had tried to resolve the issue of the "worm elder" for the benefit of his clan...

Everything is still vivid in my mind, yet it seems like a lifetime ago.

"Hey you……"

The companion did not finish speaking this sentence, because the lonely back figure said it all.

"Ethnic interests" can sometimes dominate everything, and sometimes they are worthless.

These four words can represent a real force that is condensed together, or they can be empty words that cannot be more empty.

When it feels like just empty talk, personal thoughts of “self” emerge.

Everyone has his or her own ideas and is dominated by them.

The other ninjas stood there hesitantly, but in the end, they caught up with the figure holding the corpse.

On the other side, Sasuke could not escape Uchiha Madara's pursuit no matter what. After trying to exchange moves with the opponent, Sasuke found that Uchiha Madara's strength was a little too exaggerated at this time, and he was no match at all.

Even the most terrifying thing is that Uchiha Madara doesn't seem to have used his full strength.

Sasuke sensed something and realized that today would not end peacefully.

"Two things. First, the aid program is suspended. You must remain silent and refrain from using the Uchiha name until the chaos ends. Second, if you really have to, remember the last resort I've arranged... Do you understand?"

Sasuke took advantage of the fact that he had finally put some distance between himself and Madara and hastily made future arrangements with his subordinates.

"Master Wuming, you..."

"Just follow your orders... Uchiha Madara is coming for me. I'll stop him, and you take this opportunity to leave the battlefield."

"But……"

"Follow orders, and don't make me repeat myself a second time... You staying here won't help."

“…Yes, Master Wuming!”

These Uchiha ninjas from the Eagle Organization had no choice but to accept Sasuke's orders, because Sasuke's words were correct and ordinary Uchiha ninjas were simply unable to intervene in a battle of this level.

They obeyed the order and evacuated the area quickly.

These people trust the strength of "Nameless Lord", so they are willing to believe that he can stop Uchiha Madara.

However, unexpectedly, the Uchiha ninjas led by Madara did not pursue them. It can be said that they just let them leave.

They moved forward unhindered, getting further and further away from the battlefield, but the sounds of battle that reached their ears became increasingly exaggerated...

The huge vibration made the ninjas stop involuntarily.

"Let's go, don't hesitate. At this time, we can only choose to trust Master Wuming."

"Yes, Lord Wuming will be victorious."

…………

A few days later, in the village of the Senju clan.

"Haha, Yu Zhen did a great job. I didn't expect that he could stabilize the western border of the Fire Nation so quickly. He also fought the war with Shihe very well, but..."

"Isn't the subsequent incursion into the plateau a bit excessive? Trading chaos outside the border for stability on the national frontier doesn't it seem like diverting trouble eastward?"

Hashirama Senju held the detailed battle report from Yinghuo, sometimes happy and sometimes a little doubtful.

Senju Tobirama's opinion was exactly the opposite of his elder brother's. He was very satisfied with Yu Zhen's behavior of disrupting the plateau ninja clan, and even felt that it should be done more drastically, but he was not very satisfied with the details of Yu Zhen's behavior of drawing the border line.

"Brother, Yu Zhen acted on his own initiative. The border he drew is inconsistent with our plan..."

"We should establish a small nation as a buffer zone between us and the desert forces. Furthermore, since there's only one power left in the northwest, the Taki Kingdom, we should establish at least two or three other powers, allowing them to confront each other while serving as a buffer zone."

"Furthermore, even though we haven't decided on the name of this country yet, the name of the Fire Nation has already spread among the Firefly Organization... There are serious procedural issues."

"Don't you like the name Fire Country? I think it's very good and very suitable. Or do you have any other suggestions?"

Hashirama Senju felt a little puzzled. The name of the Land of Fire sounded very nice. Tobirama was a good person in every way, except that he was sometimes dark-minded and petty.

Senju Tobirama was speechless. Was this a question of whether it sounded good or not? Shouldn't the title of this country be decided by the eldest brother and the daimyo? Strictly speaking, Yuzhen's behavior was an overstepping of authority.

"It's not about personal preference, it's just..."

"As for the border issue, if we can maintain a good relationship of mutual trust with the Gujing Clan, we really don't need a buffer zone between us."

"Even if we need a buffer zone, it shouldn't be too fragmented. In theory, a medium-sized country is more suitable as a buffer zone than many small countries."

"This middle-sized country doesn't even need to obey our will, as long as its ruler is rational enough... As long as they are rational enough, they should strive to maintain relations with us, because we will treat them equally."

Hashirama Senju's ideas are close to those of Yuzhen, so it's not wrong to say that they are coincidental.

Senju Tobirama obviously does not like this approach which is full of uncertainties. The idea that "everyone's well-being is the real well-being" is too idealistic. In fact, "I am well-being while others are not" is more realistic.

He still didn't like what Yuzhen did, nor did he like his elder brother's opinion, but he couldn't influence Hashirama's thoughts, nor could he influence Yuzhen's actions... When he thought about it carefully, he actually played the role of a punching bag.

"Forget it, the matter is done. I hope there won't be any more incidents on the border."
