Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

It can only be said that he is a disciple trained by the inherently evil Tobirama Senju. It can be said that the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked!

This guy has perfectly inherited his teacher's will!

Shimura Danzo stared at Uchiha Izuna with an expression on his face. If the situation turned slightly wrong, he would immediately form hand seals and unleash Izanagi.

Otherwise, once the hand seals are completed, there won't even be a chance to revive.

“Exterminating the Uchiha clan is not something to boast about,” he said in a deep voice, trying to persuade the First and Second Hokage. “But for the continuation of Konoha, for the survival and peace of more people, someone always has to do those shady things.”

"This is the meaning of the existence of 'roots,' and it is the path that I, Danzo Shimura, have chosen!"

"Enough!" Madara Uchiha interrupted Danzo's speech in annoyance.

Although he didn't care about the lives of those Uchiha, this guy was really annoying, always making up high-sounding excuses for himself.

She's nothing compared to the one next to Lian Ye.

The Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen of this timeline are utterly hypocritical!

The Uchiha clan's attempt to stage a coup was simply to become Hokage; they didn't intend to destroy Konoha.

They simply feared that the Uchiha would usurp their position, which is why they exterminated the Uchiha clan.

Seeing this, Shimura Danzo wisely shut up and dared not say another word.

He has achieved his goal: to gain prestige in front of everyone.

Once this matter is over, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will become the Fourth Hokage!

"I'm very curious, how did you manage to wipe out the Uchiha clan?"

"Impure Tobirama suddenly asked."

The Uchiha clan was a large clan in the village, so it shouldn't have been so easy to wipe them out.

Otherwise, the Senju and Uchiha clans wouldn't have fought for so many years during the Warring States period.

Upon hearing this, all eyes turned to Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura.

The two looked at each other, neither daring to speak.

"Hehe, you're not going to tell, are you?"

Uchiha Izuna sneered, stepped forward, grabbed Shimura Danzo by the neck, and used Sharingan genjutsu.

He wanted to see if this hypocrite was truly as righteous as he claimed!

Danzo Shimura initially wanted to resist, but seeing that the First and Second Generations had no intention of stopping him, he could only grit his teeth and let Izuna read his memories.

Soon, Uchiha Izuna clearly understood the ins and outs of the matter.

"Heh, just as I imagined. Truly a fine disciple trained by Tobirama Senju!"

Edo Tobirama: "..."

No, what does it have to do with me?

He was not involved in the massacre of the Uchiha clan.

This mad dog just bites people randomly.

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed softly, knowing that the truth could no longer be hidden.

He took a deep breath and slowly began to speak:

"The conflict didn't arise overnight. The Uchiha possess powerful bloodline limits, but since the Nine-Tails' attack on the village, speculation has been growing that the Uchiha can control the Nine-Tails."

"The village's leadership, including myself, made the decision to relocate the Uchiha clan's territory to the edge of the village and increase surveillance due to fear of the second Nine-Tails attack..."

"This was a wrong start, which not only hurt the dignity of the Uchiha, but also planted seeds of distrust and estrangement in their hearts."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes were filled with regret.

“I tried to make amends, I tried to communicate. But once the seeds of suspicion are sown, they grow wildly. Within the Uchiha clan, dissatisfaction with the village's policies is growing, and the voices of the radicals are getting louder and louder.”

"At the same time, within the village's upper echelons, vigilance and a hardline stance towards the Uchiha were also rising. I was caught in the middle, torn between two options. I wanted to appease the Uchiha's anger, but I also had to consider the overall safety of the village."

"My indecisiveness and my naive fantasies caused the situation to deteriorate step by step."

……

"The Uchiha clan massacre was carried out by the Uchiha genius, Itachi Uchiha. He reached an agreement with Danzo. In exchange, the village had to guarantee the absolute safety of his young brother, Sasuke Uchiha, and conceal the Uchiha's attempted coup, at least to ensure that the Uchiha's reputation was not damaged."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, fighting back tears, spoke in a trembling voice.

"Pfft!"

Sasuke Uchiha, kneeling on the ground in the crowd, burst into tears.

"Why...why is this happening!"

The brother he had hated all these years was the one who chose to kill their parents and clansmen because of him.

No one has ever told me about this!

"Sasuke, are you alright...?"

Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno went to check on them, but Sakura abruptly pushed them away.

Everyone was shocked by the truth, and no one paid attention to the three little ones.

"All that you've said is that you're incompetent in governance."

Uchiha Izuna stared coldly at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"If Konoha had accepted the Uchiha, things wouldn't have come to this."

He had once told his brother that the Uchiha clan must never surrender, no matter what.

However, after his death in battle, his brother failed to defeat Hashirama Senju and was ultimately forced to join Konoha.

As a result, the Uchiha clan was ostracized, and the older brother left the village alone.

Uchiha Madara: "..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi mentioned the Nine-Tails twice; the first time was probably during his battle with Hashirama.

As for the second time, it will probably be Obito, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Therefore, the Uchiha clan massacre was actually related to him to some extent.

After all, in his view of carrying out the "Eye of the Moon" plan, there was nothing in the ninja world that was not worth sacrificing.

Even members of the clan are no exception...

He just didn't dare say these things to Izuna's face.

Let the younger brother vent his anger on Tobirama's disciples.

Chapter 668 Where is that kid?

"Monkey, I made you inherit the Hokage title because I thought you could handle everything in the village."

"Impure Tobirama said with a disappointed look, he hadn't expected things to turn out this way."

As Hiruzen Sarutobi said, it was his failure to manage the relationship between the village and the Uchiha clan that led to the massacre of his clan.

Trust cannot be built simply by talking about it.

Even he didn't trust the Uchiha clan, let alone Hiruzen and Danzo.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Tobirama-sensei."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said bitterly.

He plans to resign as the Third Hokage to make amends for the mistakes he has made over the years and to allow a better leader to lead the village.

Edo Tobirama said nothing more; there was no point in saying anything now that things had come to this.

Uchiha Izuna regained her composure after being comforted by Uchiha Madara.

Ultimately, it's just a parallel universe. Although it's unacceptable that the Uchiha clan was wiped out, at least such a thing didn't happen in their own timeline.

He was just blinded by anger.

Tobirama Senju looked around but couldn't find the boy. He frowned slightly.

Could it be that... this timeline didn't adopt that kid?

Or rather, that kid is already dead!

When he arrived in this time and space, he saw a completely different trajectory of development and began to have some guesses.

However, this has not been confirmed.

Where is that kid?

Tobirama Senju spoke to the two of them, and seeing their puzzled looks, he understood.

It seems that, just as I suspected, they didn't know Lian Ye at all!

"Second Generation Lord, who are you referring to?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked puzzled.

Who exactly is "that kid" they're talking about?!

The impure Tobirama also looked surprised; he didn't understand what his other self was saying.

"You don't know Lianye-kun?"

Seeing this, Uchiha Izuna asked in surprise.

Edo Tensei Hashirama and Edo Tensei Tobirama: "???"

Lianye-kun? Who is that? Is it strange that they don't know each other?

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura tried to recall the person, but they had no recollection of him whatsoever.

Madara Uchiha looked at their expressions and suddenly paused.

The last time I traveled through time, those people didn't seem to recognize that kid either!

Logically speaking, the people of Konoha should know that Tobirama is his adopted son.

Unless, in other timelines, Tobirama never adopted that kid at all!

Furthermore, the development from the Warring States period to the founding of Konoha was the same, which can only mean that Renya's appearance changed everything in their time and space.

Madara Uchiha recalled that the kid seemed to know everything, including the truth behind his "Eye of the Moon" plan...

I didn't think much of it before, but once you connect the dots, you can find clues!

That kid definitely doesn't belong to their time and space, otherwise, the things that happened to them are inexplicable.

Madara Uchiha clenched his fists unconsciously, but did not voice his inner thoughts.

The kid didn't bring it up, and he wouldn't go and ask.

Moreover, this is just his guess; to find out the truth, one would need to travel to other timelines!

If my guess is true, then Lian Ye's true identity is quite interesting.

"We really don't know Lian Ye, the one you're talking about."

Edo Tensei Hashirama scratched his head awkwardly.

Edo Tobirama frowned, observing Uchiha Izuna's reaction, wondering who this person named Renya was.

Why did they react so strongly...?

"If we don't know them, that's fine," Tobirama Senju said. "We'll leave as soon as we've found out what's going on."

As he spoke, he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, and sighed silently in his heart.

Fortunately, it wasn't a disciple he trained himself; it just shows that Tobirama in this timeline is inadequate.

Danzo and Hiruzen, whom he trained, were both inheritors of the Will of Fire.

Even if the Uchiha clan attempted a coup, they would only eliminate the hawks.

I cannot bring myself to leave only one child behind!

Hiruzen and Danzo here, especially Danzo, are practically like completely different people.

He saw no remorse in Danzo's eyes, only ambition and desire for power!
