In less than two hours, Tobirama had returned to Konoha.
More precisely, he had used the Flying Thunder God several times and made it back in less than a minute.
That showed just how anxious he was.
Whoosh!
Tobirama flashed into the experimental facility, appearing beside his elder brother, Hashirama.
"Tobirama, you're back already?"
"Elder Brother, is Izuna really alive again?"
"Of course! He and Madara are both inside. This is great. The Uchiha and Senju Clans can finally make peace for good..."
Hashirama was delighted, sincerely happy that Izuna had been revived.
"Elder Brother, you're celebrating too soon. The conflict between our clans won't be so easy to resolve."
Tobirama shook his head and sighed.
How could the blood feud between the clans be so easily put to rest? Izuna wasn't the only one who had died. Both sides had lost many other clan members.
Izuna's revival could certainly help bridge the gap and ease some of the animosity between the clans.
But Tobirama himself was not happy about it!
He had spent so long secretly practicing his swordsmanship, little by little, before finally defeating his archenemy, Izuna.
Of course, Tobirama hadn't meant to kill Izuna that time. Otherwise, he would have slit his throat. And when they'd met again, he wouldn't have been the one to ask how Izuna was doing.
In short, his enemy had actually come back to life.
Didn't that make him look like a complete fool?
"Let's take it one step at a time. As long as Madara and I truly reconcile, the tensions between our clans can gradually ease, too."
"Elder Brother, you..."
"Hmm? Is there something you don't like about that?"
"No..."
Tobirama swallowed his words obediently, not daring to argue with his elder brother about it. Otherwise, Hashirama might hang him
