Makoto Ito ignored the Chat Group and instead focused his gaze on Sasuke Uchiha, who was currently acting quite arrogant.

Sasuke Uchiha had already activated his Sharingan and was even arrogantly telling Makoto Ito to attack first.

"Heh! Makoto Ito! Don't say I didn't warn you! So what if your ninjutsu is a bit stronger? Your taijutsu and your speed are useless in front of my eyes! Everything you do is an illusion in front of these eyes!

I'll easily defeat you and show you what the glory of the Uchiha Clan truly is!"

[Tobirama Senju: Holy crap! All he talks about is the glory of the Uchiha Clan! The Uchiha are gone, what glory is there? I despise people like this! All he says is Uchiha glory, Uchiha glory, doesn't he sound like a complete idiot?]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Stop, please stop!]

[Madara Uchiha: He really is an idiot! If you have power, that's glory. If you don't, you're nothing! With such little power, he keeps rambling about Uchiha glory, he's completely shaming the Uchiha Clan!]

[Izuna Uchiha: He opened a one-tomoe Sharingan and is already this arrogant. I wonder what kind of expression he'd have if he knew Makoto Ito already has a three-tomoe Sharingan?]

[Tobirama Senju: Exactly! Kid, hurry up and activate your three-tomoe! Let him see what a Sharingan truly is!]

[Makoto Ito: If you want me dead, just say so!]

[Tobirama Senju: What do you mean? I just asked you to activate your three-tomoe Sharingan. How does that make you dead?]

[Makoto Ito: Oh, right, you guys don't know yet?! You can ask Shisui Uchiha how he died?]

[Shisui Uchiha: ………………Why am I being dragged into this again?]

But everyone was very curious about what Makoto Ito said!

[Tobirama Senju: Shisui kid, how did you die?]

[Madara Uchiha: Yeah, it sounds like there's more to it, too? Why is Konoha always full of this crap every day? Why does it seem like everyone who dies has a hidden story?]

[Hashirama Senju: ……………There was no hidden story to your death back then, I killed you outright!]

[Madara Uchiha: Shut up! Hashirama!]

[Tobirama Senju: Don't interrupt! Shisui kid, how exactly did you die?]

[Shisui Uchiha: I... I was…]

[Makoto Ito: Alright, alright, stop dragging it out. You were ambushed by Danzō, weren't you? And then your eyeballs were gouged out!]

[Tobirama Senju: ????????????????]

[Hashirama Senju: Ambushed?]

[Madara Uchiha: Gouged out eyeballs??]

[Shisui Uchiha: …That's how it was…]

[Tobirama Senju: You're a descendant of Kagami. Danzō, how could Danzō do such a thing? And from our previous conversation, weren't you loyal to Konoha's higher-ups? Why would he still ambush you?]

[Makoto Ito: Oh, that's a long story!]

[Tobirama Senju: Don't waste time, just tell me!]

[Makoto Ito: It's just that Shisui had already been tricked, right? He had no guard against Danzō. He activated his Mangekyo Sharingan and foolishly told Danzō about it. Danzō heard this and thought, 'This is incredible! How can such power be in the hands of the Uchiha Clan? Even if you're loyal to Konoha, I still have to gouge out your eyeballs!'

In short, that's roughly what happened. That's the situation. Shisui foolishly had his eyeballs gouged out by someone…]

[Madara Uchiha: He awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?]

[Tobirama Senju: Such a genius, how could he…]

At this moment, Tobirama Senju's mind had completely collapsed. He was clearly a genius of Konoha, a genius of the Uchiha Clan who was loyal to Konoha! Most importantly, he was a descendant of Kagami. One had to know that Danzō, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Kagami were all his disciples back then!

How could Danzō do such a thing?

[Makoto Ito: That's why I said, if you make me activate the three-tomoe, aren't you just killing me? If I activate the three-tomoe now, I might be taken away for 'tea' after school! And then my eyeballs will be gouged out!

Of course, if you can give me all your power so I can protect myself, I wouldn't mind activating the three-tomoe now to scare Sasuke Uchiha.]

However, Tobirama Senju did not respond to Makoto Ito's words. Instead, he had fallen into deep self-doubt…

Are all these disciples I trained truly so incompetent?

After learning about Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions, he even thought that if he had given the Hokage position to Danzō back then, it would have been better!

But he never expected Danzō to be even more appalling!

A genius of Konoha! The future of Konoha Village! And yet you higher-ups killed him off?

You know, that was the Mangekyo Sharingan! The same eyes as Madara Uchiha! That means Konoha gained a top-tier combat power, but this top-tier combat power was killed by its own people…

What has happened to Konoha Village now?

What kind of people did he train all these years?

No wonder that kid Makoto Ito didn't dare to show his three-tomoe Sharingan. So he was afraid of death! How ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! What was the original intention of establishing the village? Wasn't it to protect these young saplings? Why are these saplings now becoming pawns that you in power can discard at will?

Is this the Will of Fire in Konoha now?

Is the Will of Fire now to have new leaves burn themselves to illuminate the dying leaves?

In fact, ever since the Chat Group opened, Tobirama Senju had fallen into self-doubt several times, and this time, he was deeply immersed in it again!

[Makoto Ito: It's worth mentioning that Itachi Uchiha also activated the Mangekyo Sharingan. Although he wasn't a good person, he was indeed a genius! And he was also a genius loyal to Konoha Village! But under the coercion of the higher-ups, he was forced to massacre his entire clan and then became a Rogue Ninja

But even after he became a Rogue Ninja, he was secretly serving Konoha all along. All of this was because Konoha's higher-ups, namely Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzō Shimura, used Sasuke Uchiha's life as leverage!]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Sigh…]

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was completely shut down at this moment, not wanting to say anything at all!

[Madara Uchiha: Damn bastards! Damn Danzō Shimura, damn Hiruzen Sarutobi! If I had the chance, I'd really tear them both apart with my own hands!]

[Hashirama Senju: You scoundrels! Is this what Konoha is now? Are these Konoha's higher-ups now? A bunch of scoundrels! I will absolutely not acknowledge them!!!]
