"His true dream... will absolutely overturn everything that exists..."
"Konoha is doing well now... The children are living happily, and I don't want this scene to be destroyed..."
"For our Konoha!"
Kagami Uchiha silently watched Hashirama Senju.
After a long pause, he spoke softly.
You're wrong.
"It doesn't belong to you, it belongs to our Konoha."
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Minato Namikaze, with his blond hair, and Hatake Sakumo, with his silver hair, appeared.
"I believe in the magnanimity of the First Hokage, and I also believe in your strength, Kagami. So, take care of things first before coming over. There's still time."
Minato smiled gently.
Kagami Uchiha looked toward Hashirama Senju.
Also appearing at the same time were Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Orochimaru.
A smile appeared on Kagami Uchiha's lips as he ignored Tobirama Senju and Orochimaru, looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Lord Third, you already had such a magnificent exit, why did you come back?"
On the war-torn land, the Hokage of past generations and the current ruler of the Land of Fire stand in confrontation.
The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked dejected; he had suffered many setbacks in recent days.
Several old friends were all dead, and the village's ninjas also suffered heavy casualties.
He was deeply saddened that many outstanding ninjas died in internal strife.
That's because of the different perspectives.
Hashirama Senju saw ordinary villagers and commoner ninjas, and could see the difference between them and when he was Hokage.
But in Hiruzen Sarutobi's view...
The village's elite fighting force, apart from Kagami Uchiha, is far less than it was when he died.
The once mighty Konoha Ninja Village... has now split apart.
His voice was hoarse and indistinct.
"Mirror... have I... done anything to wrong you?"
I will have Jiraiya take you as his disciple and teach you ninjutsu.
You want the Rasengan's nature to change, Jiraiya and I studied it all night.
You killed the Eight-Tails, so I'll count it as a battle achievement for you. Ignoring Danzo's objections, I'll give you the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique if you want it.
Even though I knew the Sharingan could affect the Nine-Tails, I still had Kushina and Minato team up with you.
They even arranged for Kosuke to teach you the basics of ninjas.
The reason I asked Fugaku to bring you back is so that I can have a proper talk with you.
I want to personally guide you and help you build bonds with the villagers.
I did hesitate, but I gave you chances time and time again, and I did nothing to you until my death.
As long as you can genuinely accept the villagers.
I really am...
I really want to train you to become Hokage!
What did I do to wrong you?
Are you trying to negate my life like this?
Judge by actions, not intentions.
Regardless of what Hiruzen Sarutobi thought, the fact is that he did not do anything to betray Kagami Uchiha.
He may have let down the Uchiha Clan, but he did right by Kagami Uchiha.
Mirror's perception of Hiruzen Sarutobi is also complex.
He hasn't become the repulsive person he once was.
It was a good thing he died.
He died when Orochimaru had the best impression of him.
He died before Kagami Uchiha came to hate him.
If he had appeared to resist when Kagami Uchiha led his clan to destroy Konoha that day, Kagami Uchiha would have been prepared to kill him.
Let him die a quick and glorious death.
This can be considered as repaying the kindness shown to me before.
"You haven't wronged me, and I don't feel like I've wronged you."
"Our views are different, so there will always be a winner and a loser."
"That's just how the world is, don't you understand, Lord Third?"
Click.
The armor made a sound as it moved, Tobirama Senju stepped forward.
"Kagami Uchiha, you possess such great strength, you clearly have a better way to solve this."
"You also have the ability to be a Hokage and change the village's perception of the Uchiha."
"Your grandfather, one of my subordinates, worked for this very purpose."
Thump—
A sudden, heavy heartbeat arose.
A black spear exuding a terrifying aura appeared out of thin air, like a black flash of light that tore through space and time.
Boom!!
The thick black spear fell diagonally, pinning Tobirama Senju to the ground!
Tobirama!
"Second Hokage!"
Hashirama Senju was trying to help Tobirama escape, several identical black spears pinned him to the spot.
The black spear interfered with the flow of chakra, Hashirama Senju felt that it would take him a while to break free.
Minato Namikaze and Hatake Sakumo also gripped their weapons, ready to act at any moment.
Now that they have chosen their path, they will not hesitate any longer, even if it means facing their predecessors!
No one expected that Kagami Uchiha would make such a sudden move.
Hashirama Senju noticed that Kagami Uchiha was very polite to the monkey, and thought there was something to discuss.
No, some people present did realize it.
Orochimaru then dodged to a distance.
A terrifying and fierce surge of chakra erupted, and crimson Tomoe appeared in Kagami Uchiha's pupils.
"Tobirama Senju..."
"It is you who perpetuated the hatred."
"You are the last person who has the right to speak to me!"
Kagami Uchiha stepped forward and grabbed Tobirama Senju's hair.
"For your grandfather's sake, I've stopped bothering with you. Wouldn't it be better to just be a mouse that runs away at the sight of a cat?"
Tobirama Senju stared coldly at Kagami Uchiha. He simply did not acknowledge Kagami Uchiha, and even if he died again or was sealed away, he would not accept him!
This is a truly evil Uchiha, beyond redemption!
"Mirror! Release the Second Hokage!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned his Golden Staff and looked at Kagami Uchiha.
Kagami Uchiha turned to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
He slowly released his grip.
"Lord Third, this is the last time I will address you as such."
"Right and wrong, gratitude and entanglement, are now settled."
"I will not care what you do. Whether you Impure World Body or return to the Pure Land, it doesn't matter."
"Do not appear in the Land of Fire."
"Believe me, you won't like the feeling of your soul never having a moment's peace."
Kagami Uchiha's anger subsided slightly, and he turned to look at Minato and the other two.
"Let's go."
Just as he passed by Orochimaru, he, who had been silent all along, spoke up.
"Kagami-kun".
"You once told me that no matter how many times I am reincarnated, I should never forget you."
"Considering your previous actions, I've thought about it for a long time, and I've come to a terrifying conclusion..."
Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly, making his emotions unreadable.
"Kagami-kun, can you... see the future?"
The tone was not full of doubt.
It seems Orochimaru has already confirmed this possibility.
Kagami Uchiha's lips curled up.
"Yes, I saw it."
"Without my future, the Uchiha will be destroyed. Minato, Sakumo, Kushina, they will all die."
"You'll defect too, and make yourself into something unrecognizable."
"You killed Hiruzen Sarutobi about ten years later."
"Hehe, although you're not exactly human now, you're better than I expected."
Kagami Uchiha's eyes saw through Orochimaru.
This body exudes a strong natural aura; Orochimaru... has already mastered Senjutsu.
Has your change in personality made you brave enough to accept the old woman snake's test...?
Kagami Uchiha's words contained a great deal of information.
Sakumo was a little better off, since his death was indeed prevented by Kagami Uchiha.
Minato was somewhat shocked. If the situation allowed, he would have asked more questions about what had happened.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju also fell silent, their eyes filled with undisguised surprise.
"Is it different now...?"
Orochimaru smiled.
"Then I thank Kagami-kun for the changes he has brought to this world."
"I don't like the future you've described."
"I'm really looking forward to seeing how much you can change the Shinobi World."
"Hope is useless, and you are not allowed to enter the Land of Fire."
Well...
The two groups passed each other without saying another word.
After the debate.
It's confirmed.
The Uchiha are the true heirs of Konoha.
