Chapter 433 Family Conflict

"I don't agree! I absolutely don't approve of your decision! To you, is the life and death of the children far less important than a victory or defeat that is destined to be meaningless?!"

Thousand-Handed Buddha looked at his eldest son, who was furious at his words and looked like a wild beast whose territory had been invaded. He couldn't help but be dazed for a moment - had the little guy, who was once not even as tall as his thigh and so fragile, grown up to this size without him noticing?

But soon, his trance was covered by a stronger anger, "You treat the lives of children with contempt? Winning or losing is meaningless? Hashirama! What kind of mood do you have when you say such a thing!"

Hashirama stiffened his neck, showing no intention of backing down. "Isn't that so?! Haven't I already told you! The Uchiha clan has decided to end the mission and withdraw from this battlefield because of what happened during Tobirama's last mission! Why can't you trust me just once!"

"Trust is the cheapest thing in the ninja clan's intelligence war! If you want me to trust the information you bring, then you have to step out of your father-son relationship with me and show me solid evidence to make me trust you!"

Qian Shou Fu Jian tried hard to suppress his anger, but still let out a low roar, "I don't care what kind of magic potion that Uchiha Ling gave you, or what kind of deal you reached - but as long as you don't have the strength to bring those deals to light, then these deals are completely unreliable!

And I am not only your father, but also the head of the clan! In addition to you, I also have to consider the millions of people in the clan! If I don't let Banjian go to the battlefield, how can I convince the clan members to let their children go to the battlefield, and how can I preserve the vitality of the clan as much as possible in this war? ! Do you think I am not heartbroken! ?

The Senju clan no longer has the glory it had so many years ago! If we want to lead so many people to survive in this world where people are eating each other, we can only become cold-blooded! So throw away all those naive ideas in your mind! Your unnecessary naivety will only push the Senju clan to a more desperate end!"

Instinctively after being scolded by his father for a long time, Hashirama took a step back, but soon he stepped forward again, his brown eyes burning with even more anger and stubbornness, "This world that forces children to go to the battlefield is the one that should be destroyed! It is the one that should be pushed to the end! People need love! They are not creatures that can survive by being cold-blooded!

Even though I always disobey you, you can't deny my talent. But even I didn't go to the battlefield until I was ten years old.

Even when the conflict was not intense! Even though I was protected by many people, I was in danger many times! Banjian's talent is far inferior to mine! But you wanted him to embark on such a fierce war when he was less than ten years old! You are sending him to his death! !

If there is a need to fight! Just let me go! I can fight more battles! Kill more people! Do more things! If the clan needs a role model, then send me! Why must Banjian go to the battlefield! ? Didn’t you see the consequences of Wajian? ! Do you think that kind of luck can always accompany our family? ! "

“Shut up! That’s proof that Wajian had fought bravely! Don’t use the word lucky to discredit him!” Qianshou Fujian finally couldn’t help but punched out, “And figure out your identity and your abilities clearly! As long as you can successfully leave offspring! The Qianshou clan can step onto a higher level, and this is the foundation of the Weixu clan!”

Hashirama climbed up from the collapsed door and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His brown eyes still stared directly at the Thousand Hands Butsuma without giving in, but his voice became calmer. "You have a point... But I really don't see any need to continue such a twisted clan."

"you--!"

"Father!" Tobirama, who had rushed over after hearing the voice, opened his arms and stood between the two of them. He spoke anxiously before he could catch his breath, "Brother just doesn't want to see Itama go to the battlefield, that's why he did this! We all feel the same way! Please calm down!"

The atmosphere was tense for a moment. After a long time, a slightly rapid "knock, knock" sound gradually approached and reached the ears of several people, and then the three of them moved.

Hashirama lowered his head, Tobirama lowered his arms, and Senju Butsuma closed his eyes to hide the pain in his eyes.

"...Don't let me hear about what happened today again. Get ready for battle. The war is not over yet."

Tobirama looked at the Senju Butsuma who seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant, his crimson eyes were filled with mixed emotions, but in the end he just said respectfully, "Yes, father."

Senju Buddha hummed, walked past the two without looking back, and as he walked out of the room, the approaching "knock knock" sound stopped, and a more childish voice sounded, "Father."

Listening to the laughter and conversation coming from outside the door, Tobirama sighed slightly and turned back to look at Hashirama who was standing behind him with his head down, "Brother, why do you have to talk back to father? There are obviously more than one way to solve the problem..."

"But Itama is so young..." Hashirama raised his head and looked at his younger brother who was younger than himself but acted much more maturely than himself. The stubbornness and anger he had felt when he was confronting Senju Butsuma disappeared completely, leaving only the uneasiness and confusion that was about to overflow. "Am I really useless? Why can't I do anything and no one can save me?"

Tobirama opened his mouth, but couldn't say any words of comfort. He could only raise his hands and hug Hashirama, "It's okay, I'm here."

After being stunned for a long time, Hashirama hugged Tobirama back and murmured to himself as if to encourage himself, "Brother will protect you, absolutely. No matter if there are ten people, a hundred people, or even a thousand people, as long as I can protect you, brother will definitely kill them all...

As long as I can protect you, I will do it no matter if I have to cooperate with Uchiha or kneel down to beg them. No matter how others poke my spine, what world, what clan, what rules - if I can't even protect my family, what is the meaning of my existence..."

Tobirama listened to Hashirama's increasingly choked voice, then looked at Awama who was walking towards him with difficulty using a cane, with a worried look on his face. He raised his hand and patted Hashirama's back, then lowered his crimson eyes.

[Stability can only be born under order. Although I don’t want to admit it, if the two clans join forces, with the assistance of the Uzumaki clan, they do have the ability to completely pacify the Fire Nation.

The eldest brother only had naive ideas in his head. Although he had reached a cooperation with Uchiha Ling, this kind of unequal cooperation was undoubtedly fragile and unequal. And Uchiha Madara was unlikely to trust the eldest brother completely just because of his naive words and work together with him to plan...

Perhaps after this war is over, I can ask Brother Yi to find someone to take me to talk to Uchiha Ling in private. Only by clarifying what the other party wants, can I know what attitude I should adopt towards Uchiha, and what position I should take to promote this cooperation.

Ha, the Senju who is planning to cooperate with Uchiha... I am afraid that I will be regarded as the sinner of the Senju in the future, right? 】

Thinking of this, Tobirama sighed, pushed Hashirama who was hugging him tighter and tighter, and when he saw that he couldn't break free, he spoke with some difficulty breathing, "That's enough, big brother! I don't want the reason I can't go to the battlefield is because my own big brother hugged me until my bones broke! Do you hear me! Let go! My bones are hurting!"
