Senju Tobirama the Target of Scorn, Uchiha Aosui's Rise to Fame

Uchiha Clan Compound.

Surrounded by Fugaku and others, Tobirama and Shisui returned here.

Tobirama curiously.

Even though he was the Hokage back then, he actually didn't set foot in this place much.

The only thing I remember is that when the Konoha Military Police Force was first established, they forced the Uchiha Clan Compound to relocate to the outskirts of the village.

At that time, Senju Tobirama personally came to the scene to exert pressure, but he did take a tour of the original clan territory.

I've never seen anyone stroll so leisurely before.

After all, given his reputation within the Uchiha back then...

If he suddenly appears, who knows, an old Uchiha woman might show up and throw cabbage leaves and rotten eggs at him...

Even Senju Tobirama couldn't do anything about something like that.

After all, you can't just unleash a Flying Thunder God Slash, can you?

The Hokage's power is not unlimited...

So they simply went around it and let the Anbu keep watch.

"This is Shisui's house. It's quite spacious, passed down from Kagami-senpai..." Fugaku pointed to a three-story building in front of him and introduced it to Senju Tobirama.

"Are there any extra rooms?"

"Yes, yes, my house is very big, and I always feel a bit empty living alone..."

Shisui excitedly said, "From now on, brother will live on the second floor, and I'll live on the first floor!"

Shisui accepted and adapted to the fact that the Hokage had given him his older brother very quickly...

The handsome and charming "Aosui," an orphan of the Uchiha who had been abandoned, quickly captured the heart of this young man.

This aligns very well with Shisui 'Will of Fire...

We're all one family!

Moreover, in Shisui's view...

His brother, full of sincerity, named himself "Aosui".

Although the underlying meaning had nothing to do with Shisui, Shisui felt it was for the sake of being more in sync with himself...

They both contain the character for "water," so how can you say they're unrelated?

Fugaku caught Senju Tobirama and smiled smugly.

The days spent imprisoned by Kusagakure were truly unbearable...

Upon entering Konoha, especially the territory of the powerful Uchiha, it's normal to be overwhelmed by all the sights!

"It's not Aosui's fault that he's never seen the world..." Fugaku thought to himself, and slowly said:

"This will be your home from now on, so get used to it!"

"In the past, our Uchiha Clan Compound was much more luxurious and magnificent. What a pity."

Uchiha Hono said slowly, "Fugaku, you don't seem to remember the Old Clan Compound either, do you?"

Fugaku nodded.

Although he is not young, he was born more than ten years after the village was founded.

"Oh, so there's still Old Clan Compound? Then why did we move away back then..." Shisui asked curiously.

Senju Tobirama appeared outwardly calm, but inwardly he felt a sudden unease.

He had a premonition that he was going to get scolded.

"What else could it be? Of course, it's because Senju Tobirama forcibly demolished the Old Clan Compound!"

The old ninja from the Warring States Period spoke as if coated with honey:

"You youngsters have no idea what that son of a bitch was like back then, acting as if the Uchiha Clan Compound would be flooded if they didn't relocate!" "And yet, before we could do anything about it, he demolished the Senju Clan first..."

"They say it's about accelerating integration into the clan, but everyone knows that some Senju went to become teachers at the Ninja Academy, some Land of Fire, and only a small fraction actually intermarried!"

"That old dog was the most cunning... thank goodness he's dead!"

"The Sage of Six Paths is reasonable after all; those who cause trouble don't live long..." another veteran Uchiha chimed in.

Seeing this, the other Uchiha muttered a few curses.

Anyway, everyone always complains, and they all know the same few things.

It's worth mentioning that we actually got used to the reports about monitoring the Uchiha Anbu back then, and later we stopped reporting them as much.

It wasn't anything nice, and it didn't contain much information.

Senju Tobirama tried his best to keep a straight expression.

He's not used to being directly criticized on the spot.

Seeing the Uchiha rant in the report, Senju Tobirama actually felt a sense of pleasure back then...

It's just impotent rage.

But outputting it face-to-face is a different matter.

But Senju Tobirama had no choice but to let it go in one ear and out the other, pretending he couldn't hear it...

"Why does this person have to pick a fight with the Uchiha Clan?"

Fugaku shook his head with a sigh, "It's harmful to others and doesn't benefit anyone. Extensive intermarriage among the Ninja Clan is not a good thing..."

This will affect the stability of Kekkei Genkai inheritance.

"Then you underestimate him!"

Uchiha Isshin's voice rang out. "Do you think Senju Tobirama doesn't understand these things?"

"Let me tell you, the Senju Clan has never had any legitimate lineage; they replenished their population from outside long ago!"

"Intermarriage will have an impact on them, but it will be much smaller compared to other Ninja Clan."

"The First Hokage had black hair, that bastard had white hair, Tsunade had blonde hair, and I've even seen the red-haired Senju..."

Uchiha Fugaku frowned deeply. "So insidious? Did anyone discover this back then?"

"No, I only realized it later, and it took me many years to slowly understand it. Besides, this is just my guess without any evidence."

"That bastard may be of low character, but his strength and intelligence are undeniably formidable!"

Uchiha Isshin sighed, "That's something I have to admit."

Senju Tobirama.

An enemy's acknowledgment is always more pleasing than a friend's praise.

However, Senju Tobirama's vigilance and assessment of Uchiha Isshin rose to a new level.

This is a troublesome Uchiha; he's definitely intelligent.

It's amazing that I could even discern some of his techniques from back then...

"Is it really appropriate to talk about the Second Hokage like that...?"

Shisui said softly, "It can't just be targeting the Uchiha, right? Although I don't quite understand..."

The rest of the Uchiha sighed, but didn't say anything to Shisui.

They're used to it...

Senju Tobirama was quite satisfied.

As expected of a descendant of Jing, their level of awareness is truly high!

It seems that adopting this younger brother wasn't a complete waste of time...

Seeing Senju Tobirama deep in Uchiha Isshin suddenly had an idea and spoke up:

"Fugaku, do you think we could have solved this if we had known the truth back then?"

Fugaku frowned. "There's no good solution, is there? I can't think of anything right now..."

"Aosui, what do you think?" Uchiha Isshin asked.

Senju Tobirama casually replied, "The Second Hokage was able to use the disbandment of the Senju Clan as an excuse because it didn't have much impact on the Senju Clan..." "But intermarriage clearly had an impact on the Uchiha and other Ninja Clan, right?"

After receiving an affirmative reply, Senju Tobirama continued:

"Then, just over-implement it."

"Since they disbanded, the Uchiha Clan also declared that they would hold a disbandment-style intermarriage, and they would drag the other Ninja Clan in the village along with them, so that no one would be left out, and everyone would have a good time."

"If the Second Hokage weren't an idiot, he would have called a halt immediately."

Fugaku looked at Senju Tobirama in astonishment. "You really are a genius! How did you come up with that idea?"

"What do you mean 'how did you come up with that'? Do you even need to think about it...?"

Senju Tobirama frowned. "While I appreciate you saving me back then, I have to remind you, old man, you should really work on your thinking..." Fugaku was instantly stunned by these words.

He was completely depressed, as if he had turned into ashes that could be blown away with a breath.

Was he originally a brainless middle-aged man?

He's clearly a young and promising member of the Konoha Committee Member!

"Great, great! That's so well said, Aosui!"

Uchiha Isshin burst into a hearty laugh, and three dark Tomoe unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

His turn... draw a card!

The Supreme Collector's Edition hidden item has been drawn!

"Finally..." Uchiha Isshin thought to himself, his eyes slightly moist.

"A Uchiha, and a boy I can nurture from a young age, I've been waiting so long!"

The rest of the Uchiha looked at Senju Tobirama with great admiration.

Heroes emerge from among the young...

Of course, there are also a few who haven't figured it out yet, not understanding how over-implementation could be effective.

This is a typical example of a clumsy Uchiha.

"Alright, you can all go back now!" Fugaku and the Three-Tomoe, now refreshed, waved their hands.

"Get back to your post quickly, don't let Danzo find fault with you..."

"With Clan Leader Isshin and I here, let's see if the children need anything else..."

The Three-Tomoe ornaments nodded.

Before leaving, many people took a few extra glances at Senju Tobirama, offering him encouraging looks.

Uchiha with brains, that's a rare find...

I had some more to talk about today while having tea at the Police Force!

"You get out of here Fugaku, don't let your brain taint these two children..."

"You can move on to the next book only after you've finished reading those books I've assigned you..."

"This is also for your son's own good!"

Uchiha Isshin bristling and eyes wide, roared, "Go now!"

Fugaku nodded sheepishly, "I know, I know, I'll go back and study!"

After entering the Shisui family's residence.

Uchiha Isshin was busy helping Senju Tobirama arrange the bed and room.

They also brought over a considerable number of ancient texts, including those Wind-Fire Ninjutsu, history, and swordsmanship...

It can be described as all-encompassing.

"Aosui, take your time learning..." Uchiha Isshin a smile:

"If there's anything you don't understand, just come and ask me! I'll help you master it as quickly as possible..."

Senju Tobirama nodded. "Alright, when can I become a ninja?"

"Don't rush, I plan to send you to the Ninja Academy." Uchiha Isshin waved his hand.

"The current Ninja Academy is much better than it was Senju Tobirama. With your talent, you should focus on building a solid foundation and getting back into the swing of things. There's no need to rush into missions."

"And there, you'll meet many classmates who will one day carry the flag in Konoha..."

"Once you've won them over, they'll be your brothers, and they'll be part of your network!"

Uchiha Isshin actually preferred to use a "team base"...

However, he didn't want to put too much pressure on the boy prematurely.

After all, Senju Tobirama has only demonstrated his intellect so far; his actual strength may not be that great...

We'll have to wait and see.

"Enter the Ninja Academy?" Senju Tobirama frowned.

Shouldn't traditional Uchiha urge their children to graduate quickly and go into real combat?

How come he even knows the art of concealing one's abilities and biding one's time...?

However, Senju Tobirama didn't seem to have any aversion to King of Children.

He founded the Ninja Academy.

Going back to see how Hiruzen Sarutobi is doing and answering the children's questions are things Senju Tobirama is willing to do. Even Uchiha Isshin acknowledges this, which makes Senju Tobirama very curious.

"By the way, I noticed you don't think highly of the Second Hokage?" Senju Tobirama asked knowingly.

"Yes, he is a thoroughly despicable person..." Uchiha Isshin replied immediately.

"Is he related to the Third Hokage? So I probably can't trust that person either?"

Senju Tobirama said thoughtfully, playing the role of a boy who had taken on the identity of the Uchiha.

"The Third Hokage was the Second's student..."

Uchiha Isshin hesitated for a moment, remembering what Hiruzen Sarutobi had said to him.

The saying goes, "True feelings beget true feelings," but even Uchiha Isshin didn't fully trust Hiruzen Sarutobi.

But I also don't want to speak ill of him behind his back.

His name is Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Although I hate to admit it, he might truly be the Hokage who inherited the spirit of the First..."

"He transcended the limitations of being Senju Tobirama's apprentice and broke free from the shackles of short-sightedness."

"In short, it's best not to be hostile towards him for now. At least for now, he deserves your respect. He is a rival in the clan competition, but he can't be called an enemy, "Uchiha Isshin sighed.

After saying this, he himself realized something was wrong...

Senju Tobirama nodded outwardly, but his inner feelings were quite complicated.

It was both gratifying and unsettling.

He felt as if he could hear an idiot laughing loudly in his ear, transcending time, space, life, and death.

"Hahaha, little brother, do you see that? The Monkey looks like me, but not like you!"

Senju Tobirama.

"Hiruzen, you've really gotten yourself into something now... You even have a good reputation among the Uchiha?"

"I'd like to see what you've done!"

Shisui tugged at Senju Tobirama's sleeve, ending his reverie.

Tobirama is to supervise the Hokage.

Aosui also has to carry a schoolbag.

"Brother, let's go to school together tomorrow!"

"By the way, you need to be prepared, the students at the Ninja Academy are very strong, so don't be discouraged!"

Shisui kindly reminded his Brother Aosui, "Sigh, that Yellow-Hair will be here again in two months..."

Senju Tobirama asked curiously, "What Yellow-Hair? Is he very powerful?"

"He's incredibly powerful! And while he seems gentle, he's actually awful. He beats us up while calling us monsters and stuff. There's just no way to deal with him..."

Shisui complained softly:

"Brother, you don't know, he possesses a technique called the Flying Thunder God Technique. I heard from other classmates that he invented it! But some say he perfected it..." "It allows for instantaneous teleportation, it's incredibly powerful!"

Invented... or perfected?

It struck a nerve with Senju Tobirama.

Immediately, the Second Hokage said with a forced smile:

"I'm really looking forward to seeing that..."
