Tobirama Senju, You've Got Way Too Much Shimura Danzō in You!
Konoha Uchiha Clan
Uchiha Nan didn't even wait until the end of the morning workday before rushing off to the lab.
"Tobirama, Tobirama, your dearest Third Hokage has arrived!!"
Uchiha Nan entered the laboratory, which was bustling with activity. Dozens of Tobirama Senju were conducting experiments on different workbenches. Wait, there seemed to be an extra person.
Um?
This isn't Orochimaru!
Shouldn't he be in school?
Uchiha Nan saw Orochimaru and hurriedly hid in a corner.
But things happened suddenly, Uchiha Nan never raided the lab in the morning. He almost always came to the lab at night to check if Tobirama Senju was working properly, because he simply couldn't get up in the morning.
Orochimaru was caught off guard, and a pale-faced young man emerged from the corner with a sheepish grin. It wasn't because he was wearing white powder; he was simply faking it.
My dark circles have gotten worse again.
"Orochimaru, you've been pulling all-nighters to work on experiments again lately, haven't you? And shouldn't you be in school at this time?"
"Lord Hokage, let me explain. I don't mean, I'm actually attending class; I'm using a clone to attend."
Orochimaru, that greedy snake, offered a stammering explanation.
"I don't want to hear your excuses. I'm doing this all for your own good. How can someone your age get so little sleep? Do you want to die of a sudden? Do you think you're Tobirama Senju? He's already dead and he still dares to skip class?"
Uchiha Nan was nagging Orochimaru about Tobirama Senju, who was conducting experiments nearby, couldn't stand it anymore; he was still alive and watching from the sidelines.
"Orochimaru is my disciple, you're an outsider, so don't interfere!"
"I'm still here watching! If I don't say anything, they'll really think I'm dead!"
Tobirama Senju removed his goggles and mask, clearly displeased with Uchiha Nan's behavior. Orochimaru was his disciple, with such a renowned teacher as himself; why did he need to attend classes at the Ninja Academy?
"Orochimaru, show this snobbish Hokage the latest findings of your experiments!"
Orochimaru Tobirama Senju as his disciple, believing he possessed decent ninja talent.
But his scientific research talent is simply off the charts. If he is properly nurtured, Orochimaru's future achievements are limitless. He might even become a great scientific researcher in the Ninja world, on par with himself!
"Alright, Second Master!"
Orochimaru immediately perked up upon hearing this. He had been studying under Tobirama Senju for a long time, and Tobirama Senju had been nurturing him, assigning him independent research projects to practice on. Recently, he had made some progress.
If my research results are recognized by the Lord Hokage, I might be able to stay in this lab permanently and no longer have to waste time going to school.
"Lord Hokage, the Second asked me to research how to increase food production. I initially planned to start with food seeds, but it takes a lot of time to cultivate a seed into a mature plant. However, the Second gave me a tube of special solution that can make plants grow instantly."
"However, cultivating excellent seeds is essentially a process of selection. The expression of various plant traits requires continuous trial and error. Furthermore, I discovered the law of segregation in plants, the concepts of dominant and recessive genes."
Orochimaru was going on and on about his latest research findings, while Uchiha Nan was getting a headache from listening to him. "That damn Mendel is still chasing me?"
"Alright, you don't need to tell me the specifics. Just get to the most important parts."
"Alright, Lord Hokage."
Orochimaru was slightly disappointed. The Lord Hokage, after all, didn't understand the allure of scientific research. But it didn't matter; as long as the Lord Hokage could provide the experimental funding, that was enough. Having studied under Tobirama Senju, Orochimaru had seen a lot in his life. The scientific instruments he'd handled were all worth hundreds of millions of taels of silver.
Orochimaru realized all too well that without money, experiments couldn't be conducted!
Although his master always scolded the Lord Hokage for being a scoundrel, he never denied that the Lord Hokage did have some scientific knowledge.
"Lord Hokage, the seeds for high-yield crops still need time to cultivate, but during my experiments, I discovered three special substances mentioned on your experimental list: Lord Hokage, phosphorus, and potassium. These substances can significantly increase the yield of ordinary seeds."
"With the Second Hokage's help, I have refined these three substances. Lord Hokage, please take a look."
Orochimaru picked up a plate containing a mixture of white and light yellow granules.
Uchiha Nan's eyes lit up. This... this... this is fertilizer!
Orochimaru did a great job!
Excellent grain seeds can increase grain yield, but a modern grain industry cannot rely solely on seeds. The most important factor is the development of fertilizer technology. Compared to fertilizer, excellent grain seeds are merely icing on the cake.
The fertility of soil has its limits; endless cultivation will only deplete the soil. Even in the Hokage world, the fundamental law of conservation of matter and energy must be followed. The Wood Release's exaggerated effects are due to the special energy of Chakra.
Uchiha Nan never even considered expecting a group of farmers who couldn't even read to handle such advanced operations. It was much more practical to just use chemical fertilizers to boost production.
With fertilizer, excellent grain seeds, and all sorts of unique black technologies in the Ninja world, future grain production is incredibly promising. These lowly beasts of burden in the Ninja world should be able to eat their fill. As long as they don't starve, there shouldn't be any major trouble.
In the future, Konoha will sweep across the Ninja world, and electronic products and entertainment culture will all be developed at breakneck speed. Why bother with war? Everyone can just live a life of carefree happiness. Unless an enemy descends from the sky, large-scale war should be avoided.
However, it seems there really is an enemy from the sky, and the one that Bu Ran Zhuan is fighting is the Ōtsutsuki Clan that came from the sky.
What a mess. Uchiha Nan grabbed a handful of white and light yellow granules, his mind racing with thoughts.
But thinking about it all is useless. He still has to get past Madara Uchiha. Madara Uchiha is currently a crazy chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer who wants to lead all of humanity into Sweet dreams. Uchiha Nan doesn't want to become White Zetsu hanging from a tree.
"Ahem. Orochimaru, well done. Keep up the good work on your research path. You can spend more time in the lab in the future, but don't neglect your ideological education classes at school. Read my books often; they'll benefit you. That's all for now. I won't hold it against you today."
Uchiha Nan was most afraid that Orochimaru would go astray and conduct some forbidden scientific experiments. Orochimaru was still too young to be controlled, and being exposed to these experiments too early would definitely cause him to become psychologically abnormal.
The original story depicts a character who manipulates human beings through experimentation, his mind twisted to the point that he shattered his own soul and scattered it throughout the Ninja world.
Let Tobirama Senju do it for now. He's already mentally disturbed and was once Hokage, so he knows how to handle things.
"Alright, Orochimaru, go play somewhere else. I need to discuss something important with the Second."
Uchiha Nan waved his hand, signaling Orochimaru to stay away. Orochimaru wisely hid in a corner of the laboratory. Although he was very curious about the conversation between the Lord Hokage and his master, his life was more important. The Lord Hokage always came at night, but today he hadn't even arrived at noon yet, Lord Hokage had already come to see his master. It must be something important, so he wouldn't get involved.
"Speak, you brat, what do you want with me today?"
Tobirama Senju's expression was serious; he realized the situation was unusual. Uchiha Nan only ever came to see him at night. The fact that he came this morning clearly indicated he was facing a very difficult situation. Something that even Uchiha Nan found difficult was practically unheard of in the Ninja world, except perhaps for Madara Uchiha.
"I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
"Playing the riddle-maker again?"
Let's start with the bad news.
"Madara Uchiha intends to meet with me."
As expected, Tobirama Senju showed no surprise, appearing as if he had anticipated this.
"And the good news?"
"Madara Uchiha met with me under a different identity; he probably doesn't want to fight me."
After Uchiha Nan relayed the information to Tobirama Senju, Tobirama Senju frowned, pondering Madara Uchiha's purpose. This roundabout approach was unlike Madara Uchiha's usual style. After thinking for a long time, Tobirama Senju still couldn't figure it out, probably because he didn't have a Sharingan Tobirama Senju.
What are you planning to do about it?
Are you really planning to meet him?
"Madara Uchiha is too dangerous. Why don't we gather the elite forces of Konoha? We've already prepared the bodies of our eldest brother, who was resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. We can unleash about 30% of his strength in life, and with luck, we can even reach 40%."
"Kid, with your Mangekyō Sharingan combined with your sister-in-law's Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, and me using the Flying Thunder God Technique to launch a sneak attack from the sidelines, we can seize the opportunity to cut off Madara Uchiha's head. A desperate gamble might not be without a chance of victory!"
"To deal with Madara Uchiha, I also invented some interesting Ninjutsu specifically designed to counter the Uchiha, for example..."
Tobirama Senju spoke with great enthusiasm, especially when he talked about his newly invented Ninjutsu, which made him very excited.
You damn Uchiha Nan, hold your temper!
Konoha, with its entire family and all its members, is fighting against Madara Uchiha. Regardless of whether they win or lose, Konoha will suffer a huge loss. The fruits of their hard work for more than a year and a half will be wiped out in an instant!
"Stop, stop, stop. You should think about this. Konoha is no match for Madara Uchiha. We can't afford to lose."
"Let's talk to Madara Uchiha first. He's hiding his identity, which clearly shows he wants to talk to me. If he doesn't want to fight, so be it."
"You really don't care about selling your grandson's child, Tobirama Senju. I think you just want to see Madara Uchiha die."
Moreover, Madara Uchiha is highly unlikely to lose to Uchiha Nan, and he's not an all-in bettor.
"What can we do? We can't just let Madara Uchiha keep watching Konoha from the shadows. He'll make a move on Konoha sooner or later. He's a threat, and we have to get rid of him."
Tobirama Senju was somewhat helpless. Madara Uchiha was far too dangerous, and he harbored ill intentions towards Konoha. Sooner or later, Konoha would inevitably clash with Madara Uchiha. Tobirama Senju could not rest easy until Madara Uchiha was dead!
Act decisively. This time, Madara Uchiha lowered his guard and tried to make contact with Uchiha Nan, which was a perfect opportunity for a sneak attack.
We were prepared to outmaneuver the unprepared.
"First, set up dozens of Sealing Jutsu at the negotiation site. Then, a combined Sealing Space composed of more than a dozen Sealing Squad will be filled with hundreds of thousands of Exploding Tag. Use a broken cup as a signal, and then, together with Madara Uchiha, use his Wood Release to suppress it with all their might."
"Uchiha Nan, while you're talking, deliberately get close to Madara Uchiha and Flying Thunder God Technique seals to him. You can also poison his tea—a deadly neurotoxin, Chakra- suppressing toxin. Add all of that. If Madara Uchiha drinks tea during the conversation, just prepare everything beforehand."
"Besides."
Tobirama Senju recounted his ambush plan, leaving Uchiha Nan shaking his head in disbelief. "No way! No way! It's too savage! So dirty!"
I am Uchiha, and I conspired with Tobirama Senju Madara Uchiha. Perhaps Madara Uchiha originally wanted to talk to me, promote the Moon's Eye Plan, and get me involved. If we could just drag it out for a decade or so and keep Madara Uchiha in his old age, Konoha could win.
If things continued like this, he would definitely become mortal enemies with Madara Uchiha. The devastating consequences of Madara Uchiha unleashing his full power in Konoha were Uchiha Nan couldn't even imagine.
Alright, as expected, he's the naturally evil Senju Old Ghost, a true extreme all-in monster!
Furthermore, Tobirama, you have a rather high level of Shimura Danzō content!
"No, no, Tobirama Senju, you're being too extreme!"
The Uchiha are generally considered extremists, Senju are conservatives. However, Uchiha Nan, a representative of the extremists, believes that Tobirama Senju, a representative of the conservatives, is too extreme.
"I'm extreme? How am I extreme!"
Tobirama Senju was instantly displeased. He had gone to great lengths to help Uchiha Nan, eliminating such a scourge as Madara Uchiha for Konoha. Uchiha Nan actually thought he was being extreme?
"Peace is the best policy. This time, a war is unlikely to break out; let's not act rashly!"
"Uchiha Nan, this is a golden opportunity! If you miss it, you'll definitely regret it!"
"Shut up, Tobirama Senju! I am the current Hokage, and the safety of the entire Konoha rests on my shoulders!"
Uchiha Nan, adopting the airs of the current Hokage, directly rejected Tobirama Senju's plan. He regretted not seeking Tobirama Senju's opinion in the first place, knowing Tobirama Senju be so extreme.
"Hmph (sound of slamming the table)"
Tobirama Senju was breathing heavily. Konoha would one day pay the price for Uchiha Nan's leniency.
We can't be soft-hearted when dealing with Madara Uchiha!
Uchiha Nan watched Tobirama Senju the table, jumping up and down in anger, and felt a headache coming on. How did he manage to utter another of Hiruzen Sarutobi's famous lines? It seemed like his Hiruzen Sarutobi quotes were a bit too much.
"Alright, that's settled then."
"Since you've already made up your mind, why are you coming to me for advice?"
Tobirama Senju his Byakugan at Uchiha Nan and said irritably.
"Hashirama Cells. I plan to inject a Hashirama Cells solution, just in case. If we really can't reach an agreement, I'll still have time to hold off Madara Uchiha and buy Konoha some time."
"Then we might as well just ambush Madara Uchiha."
"Shut up! Don't mention this plan again. I disagree. The chances of us failing to reach an agreement are very small!"
"I just want an extra layer of protection!"
Uchiha Nan was too lazy to listen to Tobirama Senju. He knew he could slide to his knees very quickly, but there were too many people around, Uchiha Nan he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
I was watching the game yesterday, and I was late. I overslept again.
Coach Dafei's four-time champion title, showcasing his enduring strength and prowess, is undoubtedly a testament to his talent.
I hope BLG's all-Chinese roster can prove themselves, otherwise LPL will be completely plunged into darkness. Faker becoming a five-time world champion will truly be like living a fifth life.
