Yami tilted his head.

Perhaps being naive is the most prominent trait of the Ashura lineage. Hashirama was shocked at Madara's appearance and was imdiately drawn by Tobirama's expression.

"Tobirama, look at the ninjutsu you studied. I can't even rest in peace after dying. This has happened twice now!"

"Brother, Madara is Konoha's enemy, attack him quickly! Control him!" Tobirama shouted.

Hm?!

As if a keyword had been triggered, Hashirama's aura suddenly beca extrely terrifying, and he looked sharply at Madara.

"Madara, what is going on?"

Madara chuckled and raised his sword.

"Tsk, Hashirama, you really haven't changed at all."

Hashirama was shocked to realize that he had lost control of his body. He couldn't move, he could only open his mouth to speak.

"What did you do to ?"

"Don't you understand the situation, Hashirama?"

Madara's smile was hard to suppress, "You were brought out by my Impure World Reincarnation! This ti we have to fight side by side, and the enemy... is Konoha, the village you founded!"

Tobirama pointed at him and yelled, "Madara! You vile man!"

"I should have killed you before the village was even built and fed your ashes to the dogs. You are a scourge that cannot rest in peace even after death!"

Yami, who was just watching the show, nodded. As expected of Second Hokage, he approved of this outburst.

"Senju idiot!"

Madara was scolded with a darkened face. "Do you think I want to keep you around? If it weren't for your good brother, I would have avenged Izuna long ago."

"Co on if you dare!" Tobirama took a step back, shielding Yami behind him.

"Madara, you are only good at bragging. You summoned big brother because you can't beat Yami, right? I think your Susanoo isn't as tough as you."

Listening to Tobirama's sarcasm, Madara's anger spiked, and his temper flared.

He found that this Senju's mouth had beco even more venomous than before.

This could all be credited to Sasuke. Looking at his face which resembled Izuna, Tobirama couldn't help but throw taunts, but as Sasuke's tolerance increased over ti, he had no choice but to beco even sharper with his words.

Now, all of the training from these past years was finally being put to use.

Tobirama felt utterly refreshed and comfortable.

He was at ease, but Madara was not.

"Madara, what is going on? Tobirama, stop arguing with him. Can anyone tell what is happening?"

Hashirama looked around, seeing the massive battle in the distance. The scale of the conflict was far beyond any war of the Sengoku period, and he was almost anxious to death.

"Hashirama, this ti I am helping you."

Suddenly, Madara, who just monts ago looked as if he wanted to kill Tobirama with his eyes, smiled. His smile was playful.

"I saw how much effort you put into building the village and pursuing the so-called peace.

"But so of your descendants disregarded your hard work and recklessly provoked a Ninja World War, declaring war on the other four great nations and countless small nations at the sa ti."

"What?!"

Hashirama's voice turned sharp. "Who is the current Hokage? How can he start a war at will? Doesn't he understand how precious peace is!"

Madara was not surprised at all by Hashirama's reaction.

He had personally witnessed Hashirama's transformation.

Before the founding of the village, Hashirama had an obsession with peace and agreed with it deeply.

But after Konoha was established, things gradually changed.

Hashirama seed to beco a puppet to protect the village. The core of the village was no longer his close friends, but those who could carry on his spirit.

So, when he posed a threat to the village, Hashirama attacked him without hesitation, regardless of the deep bond between them.

This was the lesson he learned after being betrayed.

Hashirama, like himself, was a man living in a dream. But after experiencing death, Madara had awakened from that dream and was ready to create a new one.

Hashirama, however, had not changed. Whoever destroyed his dream of peace and threatened Konoha's survival beca his enemy.

Madara raised his hand and pointed at Yami, who had a confused expression.

"That's him, your most outstanding descendant. He awakened Wood Release just like you and is also Konoha's youngest Hokage, the Fifth Hokage, Shimura Yami."

Hashirama looked at Yami. "Shimura? Is he a descendant of Danzō?"

"Brother, it's not what you think."

Tobirama stepped forward this ti to shield Yami, explaining for him. "Everything Yami did was for Konoha. I have been reincarnated by Impure World Reincarnation for many years. I have seen how he ca this far step by step. Don't listen to Madara's instigation!"

"Isn't it simply the truth?"

Unexpectedly, the first to refute was not Madara, but Yami.

The boy smiled politely and looked calmly at Hashirama. "Yes, since I beca Hokage, I have constantly provoked other nations, destroyed half of Iwagakure and the entire Kirigakure, and seized the Two Tails, Six Tails, and Eight Tails that you gave away.

"Konoha is currently at war with the coalition of all other nations. Impure World Reincarnation. Your Madara is also their ally."

Yami never thought there was anything he couldn't say, and even considered this his achievent.

Should he be like the Third Hokage, compromising with three or four nations at once and claiming that as an achievent for being peace-loving?

Then what is the point of him being Hokage?

Yami thought it was normal, but Hashirama was angry and confused. He raised his trembling hand.

"Why would you do that!"

"I said when Konoha was founded that Konoha would never start a war, only protect our holand!"

"What's wrong with Sarutobi? Why did he choose you to be Hokage?"

Hashirama grew more and more furious, his voice louder. "Hurry and stop the war, and then..."

"Shut up!"

Yami interrupted the stunned Hashirama, raised his sword-like brows, and shouted sharply. "What will you say next? Kneel before the other nations like you did, begging them not to covet Konoha, and then return the Tailed Beasts?

"First Hokage, what do you think I am doing now?

"I am cleaning up your ss!"

"Yami..." Tobirama felt a headache and wanted to stop Yami from continuing, but suddenly found he could not open his mouth.

Tobirama then rembered that it was Yami who was controlling his Impure World Reincarnation.

After silencing the one in his way, Yami continued, "First Hokage, you are an idiot. Do you know that the First Ninja World War began just one year after your death? Out of 60 years, 35 years were spent in war, and not a single peaceful day existed in the Ninja World.

"Your brother died on the battlefield, and so did my father. In Konoha, a total of 30,000 ninjas died directly in the three Ninja World Wars. The number of those affected is three tis that!"

"Want to play at strategic balance? Do you have the brains for that?"

"Do you know why the other First Generation Kage were so easy to talk to? It wasn't because you gave them favors. It was because of the power you and Madara possessed!"

"Do you really think bowing a few tis will make them soften their hearts?"

"They are laughing at your stupidity! They were just waiting for you to die!"

"If you and Madara had united the ninja world together, there wouldn't be so much trouble!"

"If you ask , you are Konoha's number one war criminal! The sinner of the village!"

After Yami finished, he heaved a long sigh of relief, just like Tobirama did earlier, while Hashirama stood there as if struck by lightning.

"Hahahahaha!"

Madara suddenly burst into laughter, laughing happily and wantonly, bending over with laughter.

"Good! Very well said!"

Madara had never felt so satisfied. "Yami, you are really good. You said everything I have been thinking. But the sa words spoken by different people have completely different effects."

"If the ti is right, I will definitely buy you a drink, and then we will have a fight."

"I don't drink with the dead. It's bad luck."

Madara's smile froze.

This brat is just as annoying as Tobirama!

Hashirama fell into complete silence, even doubting his own life.

His descendants... were so hostile toward him.

Could it be that everything he did was wrong? Not only did he fail to create a peaceful world, but he also brought even greater chaos...

"Grandfather!"

A shout snapped Hashirama out of his thoughts. Tsunade rushed over from the ruins in the distance, creating a large hole with every landing.

With a single leap, she covered several hundred ters, and in just a few breaths, she was next to Yami.

"Grandpa, it really is you!"

"Tsunade?!" Hashirama asked tentatively.

"It's , Grandpa."

Tsunade smiled, then said a little awkwardly, "Yami used the Mind Connection Technique to tell that you were summoned by Madara, and that he scolded you. I apologize to you on his behalf."

"Hey, Tsunade," Yami tapped her with dissatisfaction. "Why should you apologize?"

Tsunade whispered, "After all, he is my grandfather, and your grandfather. Even though he is an old fool, can you at least give him so face?"

Hashirama felt sowhat relieved hearing the first half of what Tsunade said.

At least his precious granddaughter understood his intentions and was willing to stand on his side.

But his heart shattered at the second half.

Hashirama looked hurt and asked, "Tsunade, do you also think what I did was wrong? But I did it for the peace of the ninja world. Only by having checks and balances can we maintain stability."

"Grandfather."

Tsunade's expression beca serious, with a trace of sadness. "You really did do sothing wrong.

"There aren't many people in the Senju clan now.

"They shed their blood to protect your village.

"In order to keep the Senju clan alive, Second Grandfather dispersed the clan mbers and integrated them into the village."

"Even Nawaki died in the war."

"I admit that we descendants are incompetent and can't sweep through the ninja world like you did, making people not dare to covet us. But how is your act of distributing the Tailed Beasts any different from aiding the enemy?"

Tsunade vented everything in one breath, and she felt much better afterward.

Hashirama's face turned gloomy. Being judged by his family mbers was the most fatal blow. Even his granddaughter thought he was wrong... What had the ninja village system he built proven?

In fact, Tsunade would never normally say these words, or even think them.

But as the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together."

Konoha has always portrayed Hashirama as a great man, and Hiruzen had used a disguised form of peace to whitewash his own achievents, which naturally made people also rationalize Hashirama's past actions.

Over ti, everyone ca to think that it was the right thing to do.

Until Yami appeared.

A wolf-like Hokage made Konoha realize the benefits of strength, and the ninjas began to reflect on the life they had been living all these years...

Needless to say, Tsunade, who had listened to Yami complain about Hashirama every day, was eventually influenced and beca dissatisfied with her grandfather.

Besides, it was true. If the ninja world had been unified, Nawaki wouldn't have had to go to the battlefield at such a young age, and his chances of survival would have greatly increased as he grew older.

So today, Tsunade took this opportunity to vent all her frustration.

Tobirama shook his head helplessly. He didn't know what to say. No, he couldn't even speak yet. He could only try to kill Madara with his eyes.

However, Madara ignored him.

The seal was activated, and the dejected Hashirama suddenly looked up, releasing a terrifying aura from his body.

Both of them fell to the ground.

"Hashirama, if you want to prove your philosophy is right, defeat Yami with your fists!

"Otherwise, no matter how much we talk, you and I are just complete losers. Co on!"

Madara rushed forward excitedly.

Joining forces with Hashirama to fight a common enemy was an unprecedented experience. The idea of destroying everything together with the Susanoo Great Buddha had finally beco possible.

Compared to Madara's excitent, Hashirama was helpless as his body moved involuntarily.

"Do I have any choice?"

"Wood Release: Birth of the World of Trees!"

Snap! Snap!

The ground cracked, and countless roots and vines erupted. Compared to Madara, Hashirama's Wood Release carried an overwhelming dominance that seed to suppress the entire world.

This was the true Wood Release!

"Be careful, Yami." Tobirama's expression was solemn. The pressure reminded him of the days when he followed Hashirama into battle.

But this ti, the two brothers had beco enemies.

"Finally, things are getting interesting."

Yami raised his left hand, clenched his right hand, and a pitch-black staff appeared in his hand. He tapped the ground lightly twice.

A strange rhythm echoed in everyone's ears.
