Chapter 397 Exhilarating
"On the surface, Black Zetsu only altered the contents of the stone tablet inscribed with the name of Indra's reincarnation, that is, the Uchiha clan..."
"Wait, Second Hokage, please wait a moment. Who left the inscription on the Uchiha clan's stone tablet?"
Shikamaru interrupted again.
"The Sage of Six Paths".
Tobirama Senju remained calm and did not get angry at Shikamaru for interrupting him.
Shikamaru interrupted, giving him just the right amount of time to think.
"Left by the Sage of Six Paths? But shouldn't the Sage of Six Paths' message have been about reconciling Indra and Ashura? That perfectly aligns with Black Zetsu's goal of uniting the two, so why change it?"
Shikamaru raised his question.
"Yes, you're right. The stone tablet of the Uchiha clan does indeed contain content left by the Sage of Six Paths, saying things like love."
but!
"Little friend, you've learned about the Sage of Six Paths from the story I told you, but you haven't learned about the Uchiha yet."
Tobirama Senju shook his head and sighed.
Everyone present believed what he said.
With the unveiling of past history, everyone has learned about the Second Hokage's actions and understands that he truly understood the Uchiha clan.
They probably know more about the Uchiha clan than they do about their own Senju clan.
"The Uchiha clan is used to going against the grain. If the early reincarnations of Indra were to see this, it would not only fail to make them obedient, but would also incite their rebellious nature, making it more difficult for Black Zetsu to bring the brothers together."
"That's not surprising, that's not surprising at all."
Shikamaru suddenly realized.
"But Madara Uchiha..."
"Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke have gone through countless reincarnations of Indra's chakra."
The initial reincarnations of Indra resisted in this regard.
However, as the contents of the stone tablet were written, they became increasingly rebellious in the opposite direction, and gradually developed this tendency themselves.
By the time it came to Madara Uchiha, he had already fallen from grace and had developed the idea of a massive, chaotic battle with everyone.
I can even tell you that it was Madara Uchiha who brought up the idea that my older brother had.
Of course, at that time they concealed each other's names.
Until one day, their intimate moment was discovered by me and Izuna Uchiha from the Uchiha side.
In order to stop my older brother from becoming a bond-type ninja, I had to tell my father about it.
On the other hand, Uchiha Izuna of the Uchiha clan had completely different ideas from mine.
Uchiha Izuna was also a dead... bond-type ninja.
He also told their father, but Izuna was simply jealous.
He wanted to sabotage the marriage between Madara and his elder brother Hashirama, but he only wanted to take their place.
In short, from then on, Hashirama, the eldest brother, had already broken ties with Madara on the surface, and the Senju and Uchiha fought many times afterward, just like before.
Only I know that after each battle, the bond between my brother and Madara would deepen.
If there is only simple love, and it's all ordinary and uneventful, then perhaps it's just like that.
But when love is mixed with hate, that's a different story. The intertwining of love and hate will only make the emotion more intense.
Furthermore, having to suppress these emotions means that when they finally erupt, it will be earth-shattering!
Everyone listened intently.
Hearing this, Kiba couldn't help but ask, "Second Generation Lord, didn't you think of stopping them back then?"
"Of course I tried to stop it, but fate played a cruel trick on me, alas."
Tobirama Senju sighed, "Back then, my brother and Madara were already deeply in love, like a detonating tag that could explode at any moment. In order to stop them, I had no choice but to settle for second best and choose to use one tiger to devour another."
During a battle, I used the Flying Thunder God Slash to painlessly transform Izuna into a girl, all in order to bring Izuna and Madara together and force Madara to sever ties with his older brother.
Sure enough, after Izuna returned as a girl, she immediately took advantage of the situation and forced her elder brother to marry her.
I never expected that Madara Uchiha would be so ruthless.
No matter what, Izuna was injured and turned into a girl because she fought alongside him. But instead of being grateful, he poisoned Izuna's healing medicine in order to maintain his lingering connection with my older brother Hashirama!
And so, poor Izuna was sent to his death by his most trusted and beloved older brother!
"At that time, I was gathering information and learned from snippets that Madara Uchiha pretended to cry after Izuna died."
I couldn't believe it at the time, so when we met again, I asked Madara, "How is Izuna?" I wanted to confirm whether Madara had done something so despicable and to awaken Madara's conscience.
Unfortunately, it failed.
Madara, without any expression, said, "Izuna died from his serious injuries."
Do you think I, the one who attacked Izuna, wouldn't know whether he was seriously injured or not?
To ensure Izuna's physical and mental well-being, I rinsed my sword repeatedly before using the Flying Thunder God Slash, and even applied a layer of alcohol to disinfect it and a layer of quicklime to stop the bleeding.
Izuna should have survived, but Madara killed his brother with his own hands and used this opportunity to make my older brother feel guilty and submit to his power!
As a result, the older brother didn't realize this and almost committed suicide with the kunai.
How could Ban possibly allow that?
Madara's goal was to possess his elder brother's body and soul. Of course, he wouldn't allow his brother to die, so he cleverly chose to cooperate with him, thus founding Konoha.
"Is this the origin of Konoha? What a dramatic story."
"...No wonder the Ninja Academy doesn't teach this part of history."
Everyone sighed with emotion.
As everyone listened, they almost forgot their real purpose: to find the next generation.
"After that, I still didn't forget to stop my older brother and Madara. To that end, I acted as a matchmaker for my older brother, arranging for him to marry Mito, who was a woman."
Although the eldest brother was born to be the reincarnation of Ashura chakra, his life in this one is different from his previous ones, not only in terms of power, but also in terms of control over destiny.
So the older brother did not refuse.
Upon learning this, Madara was furious and left Konoha alone.
As Tobirama Senju spoke, he miraculously uttered the phrase "it was born that way."
It seems that after being scolded so much, Tobirama Senju has gotten used to it and has tacitly accepted it.
"The rest is history. After the death of the elder brother and Madara, their chakra was transferred to Naruto and Sasuke, and this new pair of star-crossed lovers began their own communication."
As you just saw, Sasuke and Naruto have also become bond-type ninjas.
"What a thoroughly enjoyable... storytelling session!"
After listening, Ya sighed again.
"Woof woof."
Akamaru shook his head.
It seems quite dissatisfied with this story; it still prefers the limited-time Tsukuyomi story of Sao Fu Rui.
