Chapter 331: Stepping into the Sea (8)

An organization with a complete structure and each having its own responsibilities can exert power that an individual cannot, and the core of the organization is undoubtedly the leader, which is the reason why we should capture the leader first. So when Uchiha Keiji learned that the enemy's target was him, he felt no emotion and even wanted to laugh. It was really an old routine.

At this time, there were only about fifty ninjas guarding the headquarters camp, and the rest were sent out by Uchiha Keiji. This was not wrong, because the enemy's decapitation tactics must be carried out by a very small number of elite troops, and it would not be surprising if a well-known ninja attacked. But when Uchiha Keiji saw the enemy, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he cursed the ninjas on duty in the cemetery in his heart.

As he expected, there were only two enemies, but both of them had separate biographies in the history books of the ninja village system. They were the kind of people who would be respected when their names were mentioned. The one on the left, wearing the old-style fire-red Warring States armor, had black and shiny black hair. His face was not handsome, but his eyes were shining with majesty; the one on the right, wearing the old-style water-blue armor, had rare white hair, crescent-shaped protective gear on his face, and a pair of bright eyes. At first glance, he was a man with eight hundred eyes. Not only did these two people dress in different colors, they seemed to be incompatible like water and fire. Their personalities were one gentle and the other hot-tempered, one tolerant and the other harsh. For their specific appearances, please see the two left-handed Hokages. They can't be said to be similar, but they are exactly the same.

Even though he had prepared himself mentally, Uchiha Keiji still felt dizzy when he saw the two brothers appear in front of him. He bit his tongue to calm down and decided to say a few words to warm up the atmosphere: "I am Uchiha Keiji, the current Vice Hokage of Konohagakure. How do you feel when you two see me... Tsk, not very good..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a kind smile appeared on Senju Hashirama's face and he was about to speak, but Senju Tobirama beside him raised his eyebrows and shouted: "You evil brat of the Uchiha clan, how can you become Hokage?"

Senju Hashirama rudely slapped his brother with his hand and said angrily: "Shut up when your brother is talking. He also said that he is the deputy Hokage. Why are you so excited? Besides, the Uchiha clan is an important member of the village. Their clan members are certainly qualified to take on leadership positions."

"But according to my plan, the Uchiha clan should be suppressed to the point of collapse. Where did this Deputy Hokage come from?"

According to the development of the original plot, the policy of overthrowing the universe was indeed a major task of the Konohagakure for decades. However, Danzo Shimura, who was painstakingly trained by Tobirama Senju, has changed his gender, Hiruzen Sarutobi has also passed away, and the new interest group headed by Hayama has taken power. The policy of overthrowing the universe has naturally become history, which proves the saying that man proposes, God disposes.

Uchiha Keiji kept smiling, trying to show his politeness as much as possible: "Excuse me, my position as Vice Hokage was nominated by the Hokage-sama and elected unanimously by the Jonin Conference. The procedure was in compliance with the regulations, and my ability met the requirements of the position. I can be said to have the support of the people."

Senju Hashirama laughed and said, "Uchiha Keiji, right? You look unfamiliar. We probably haven't met before. Can you tell me what's going on? I was just summoned back to the human world not long ago, and I'm still confused."

"Before that, I want to confirm one thing with the Satsudaime-sama. Are you two here tonight to kill me? If so, there is no need to say more. I don't like talking nonsense or being talked to before I die."

Senju Tobirama smiled grimly: "I can break free from such a simple technique in a few minutes. I developed the Impure World Reincarnation Technique myself, and I know its weaknesses very well..."

After saying that, his body trembled violently, and the sharpness in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a dull look. Senju Hashirama smiled indifferently, obviously realizing that his brother was slapped in the face for failing to show off.

"What a pity! Even great ninjas like you two can only become tools in the hands of the enemy after death. It's just how fate plays tricks on us..."

Senju Hashirama sat on the ground, curiously looking around at the vigilant Konoha ninjas, trying to find one or two familiar faces, but he failed as expected, so he asked in a deep voice: "How many years is it in Konoha now?"

"October 10th, the 48th year of Konoha."

"Forty-eight years, no wonder all those old guys disappeared..."

"Uchiha boy, if you haven't opened your Mangekyō Sharingan, run away as soon as possible. Although I only have 30% of my strength in my prime when I return to the human world, I am not something that ordinary ninjas can handle. Go and get a ninja who can seal me in one fell swoop, so that your plan will not be ruined."

Uchiha Keiji chuckled and stood still, saying, "Thank you for your reminder, sir, but the village is facing a crisis, and the only thing we ninjas can do is die. The word "escape" is a bit inappropriate."

Senju Tobirama regained consciousness, an embarrassed look flashed across his face, and he coughed and said, "Boy..."

"Please call me by my first name."

Uchiha Keiji was not in a good mood towards the second generation who planned to isolate the Uchiha clan: "If possible, you can also call me Keiji, the deputy hokage. It's the rule to call by position when working."

"Uchiha Keiji, let me ask you, who is the current Hokage? Where is Sarutobi Hiruzen?"

"According to the report from the advance team, the Sandaime-sama should have been summoned back to the human world just like you. As for the current Hokage, his name is Bai Kumo Ye Shan, and he is a leader greater than you."

Although he had been dead for many years, when he heard the younger generations in the village saying that they were not as good as others, the extremely competitive Senju Tobirama felt unhappy. Who wasn't a trendsetters in his past?

"Who is Baiyun Yeshan? Is there a Baiyun clan in the village?"

"Lord Hayama was born a commoner, and in just a few short years he has pacified the ninja world. He is a more legendary ninja than you."

Uchiha Keiji said with a smile: "Besides, the position of Hokage is for the virtuous. How can it be the exclusive throne of the family ninja? Your thinking is too narrow. You have become an outcast of the old era."

"What a virtuous person will be in charge." Senju Hashirama laughed and clapped his hands, "We founded the Konohagakure, but that doesn't mean its leader can only be our direct descendant. With the development of the times, anyone can stand out. Tobirama, your thinking is indeed a bit narrow. I said at the beginning that the Uchiha clan is our companion, and you shouldn't look at it and measure it with the eyes of the old times."

Senju Tobirama looked at his brother expressionlessly, and the latter stopped laughing: "Then Uchiha Keiji, please tell me what the current situation of the village is, and whether it has reached a critical moment of life and death."

"If you advance, you will prosper; if you retreat, you will fail. You two should understand this principle better than I do."

Uchiha Keiji said solemnly, "Although the hope is slim, I still want to mention it. Could you two please return to the Pure Land?"

"As you can see, the power I brought back is only 30% of my peak strength. I don't think I can break free."

"I see."

Uchiha Keiji's eyes dimmed, he reached out and touched his nephew's hair, and said word by word: "It's time for you to give your heart and everything for the village!"

The young Uchiha Fumikawa giggled and slowly took off his standard ninja vest, lifted up his black tights, revealing his fair belly where obscure sealing runes were engraved, and the key to open the seal was in the hands of his uncle.

Senju Hashirama looked sad. He was a man of rich emotions, full of love, and hated to see the separation of life and death. "Is there no other way?"

Uchiha Keiji shook his head and said, "If you two come during peacetime, the village will certainly give you a warm reception, because we have the confidence to do so. But not at this moment. My current duty is to destroy the enemy as much as possible. I cannot let you approach the village and destroy it. So I need a helper, a helper who can fight with you."

Senju Tobirama tapped the ground with his finger to sense it and said, "There are a large number of ninjas scattered within a ten-kilometer radius. Judging from their aura, most of them are of fire attribute. They should be the elite of the village."

"Vice-Hokage Keiji, please issue an emergency evacuation order. If we two brothers fight, the impact will be very wide, and everything around us may cease to exist."

What is rare is that Senju Tobirama called him Uchiha Keiji's position, and seemed moved by his determination.

"Don't worry Nidaime-sama. I have already made arrangements to delegate command."

Uchiha Keiji said, forming a seal and bowing solemnly, "I, the younger generation, beg for your guidance, sirs!"

The two Senju brothers returned the favor, and then their self-awareness was stripped away, turning them into ruthless killing tools.

The dozens of Konoha ninjas present had grown up listening to the stories of the Senju brothers, and were familiar with their life stories, but had never seen them perform ninjutsu. Tonight they were both lucky and unfortunate, becoming the first generation to see the power of the Kande Warring States Period.

The first to take action was Tobirama Senju. The Second Hokage, who was famous for his water-attributed ninjutsu, attacked with the force of thunder and lightning. He formed a seal with a push and a close of his palms. Such an ordinary water-based ninjutsu displayed the momentum of thousands of troops.

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

It was as if a hole had appeared in the sky, causing the water from the Milky Way to pour down. A huge amount of water rushed down from mid-air, scattering the surrounding tents, and a small lake was formed in a very short time with Senju Tobirama as the center.

Being able to release water-style ninjutsu of such a scale effortlessly in a waterless area, Tobirama Senju, the Hokage known for his ruthlessness, is worthy of his title. The ninja who suppressed an entire era is so unreasonable and terrifying.

You know, this is only the result of their reincarnation with 30% of their strength. If they had come in their prime, I can’t imagine what the scene would be like.
