Senju Clan Compound
"Oh, my eldest granddaughter is back? Is it because that brat Owl is no good enough for my eldest granddaughter?" Senju Tobirama teased.
Tsunade shook her head. "No way!"
"Alright! Hashirama, Tobirama, stop joking around. She's your own granddaughter, after all!" Uzumaki Mito gave them both a cold look.
Senju Hashirama scratched his head, Senju Tobirama, and Uzumaki Mito, not one to tolerate the two of them, immediately summoned two thick, long golden chains.
"What? Do you two have a problem with what I said?" Uzumaki Mito asked with a smile, but her tone was chilling.
Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama quickly shook their heads, "No, no, we wouldn't dare."
"Well, when it comes to family status, our Lady Mito has it all figured out!" She chuckled, then withdrew the chains and spoke to Tsunade in a gentle tone.
"My dear granddaughter, why are you back at your parents' home on the second day already? Is there something you need to help with, Owl?" Uzumaki Mito looked at Tsunade with keen insight.
Tsunade nodded. "Indeed, there is a very big, very big thing! Big enough to change the entire Konoha Village!"
Upon hearing this, Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama exchanged a glance, both of them looking solemn. They simultaneously pricked up their ears, listening intently to what Tsunade would say next.
They were very familiar with Owl. Given Owl's personality and insight, anything he considered a major event must have a significant impact, and might even have a huge influence on the entire Konoha.
Even the usually composed Uzumaki Mito fell silent. She looked around, her gaze settling on the busy servants, and said in a deep voice, "You may all leave!"
Although the servants were puzzled, they knew Uzumaki Mito's status and authority, so they all stopped what they were doing, respectfully replied, "Yes!" and filed out of the room.
After all the servants had left, Uzumaki Mito casually waved her hand, and a golden barrier rose up, enveloping her, Tsunade Senju Hashirama Senju Tobirama.
This barrier not only blocks outside sounds but also obstructs the view of others, ensuring that their conversations are not overheard or spied on.
Uzumaki Mito's caution was not without reason. After all, in the world of ninjas, it's common for walls to have ears, and a slight misstep could lead to serious consequences.
After setting up the barrier, Uzumaki Mito looked at Tsunade and said softly, "Tsunade, you can talk now. No matter what happens, Konoha still has your Second Grandfather. He will definitely be able to help you solve it."
Upon hearing this, Senju Tobirama confidently patted his chest and declared loudly, "That's right, Tsuna, just say what you need to say. Your Second Grandfather isn't someone to be trifled with!"
Tsunade's face was full of admiration. "Really? Second Grandfather? You'd even be willing to make all the Senju Clan's C-rank Ninjutsu public and provide them to the common people for free?"
"Of course... no way! Tsuna, are you trying to scare your Second Grandfather to death?" Senju Tobirama!
Senju Hashirama scratched his head. "What's wrong, second brother? I think Tsunade's idea is great! It can benefit many ordinary people."
"Brother! This is no simple matter! On the surface, it seems to benefit ordinary ninjas, but in reality, it's undermining the foundation of smaller ninja clans. If not handled properly, it could cause a chain reaction and trigger an avalanche!" Senju Tobirama.
"Hashirama, my second brother is right. This matter is not as simple as you think," Uzumaki Mito said calmly. After all, she was a princess of the Uzumaki Clan.
Politics and class are still very sensitive topics. As for Hashirama... let's not even mention him. If it weren't for his strength, he might have been sold out countless times.
"Tsuna, have you made up your mind? If you continue down this path with Uchiha Kō, success is the only option for you. If you lose, the Senju, Uchiha, Uzumaki, and you all will be infamous for eternity." Senju Tobirama head.
Just as Tsunade was about to speak, Uchiha Kō suddenly appeared beside her and said, "I'm late."
Uchiha Kō returned home first and didn't see Tsunade, so he guessed that she must have come to the Senju Clan Compound. He then activated the Flying Thunder God and immediately teleported behind Tsunade.
"Honey~ Why are you here~" Tsunade originally wanted to say that she had thought it through, but Uchiha Kō's slap completely disrupted her thoughts, and her eyes were filled with Uchiha Kō.
Uchiha Kō pinched her delicate nose. "Didn't I tell you? Little girl, don't get involved. You think you're so tough now, huh? Go back and give her a good beating!"
Uchiha Kō chuckled strangely. Tsunade blushed, seemingly recalling her crazy behavior yesterday and today. She lowered her head, looking at her chest, which was completely obscured by her toes.
Taking the opportunity, Uchiha Kō greeted everyone, "Grandpa, Grandma, Second Grandfather."
However, apart from Hashirama who smiled and said "oh," the other two were looking at Uchiha Kō without saying a word.
"I know what Grandma and Second Grandfather are worried about. I will not change my commitment to the welfare of ordinary people. However, during the six years of training at the Ninja Academy, a new C-rank Ninjutsu is taught every two years, which is chosen by the students themselves and recorded."
"Give them basic offensive capabilities, but not so much that they become too powerful, so that they and the family's geniuses have a relatively fair platform to compete."
"As for B-rank Ninjutsu, we will still use military merits and mission points to redeem them according to the old rules. This will be an ironclad rule that will never change," Uchiha Kō said with a smile.
On his way here, he had already figured it out: commoner ninjas' desire for power far exceeded that of clan ninjas. If they were to gain control of that power, it would trigger a war.
Never underestimate the greed of human nature. If that's the case, then just teach them some basic Ninjutsu, give them the strength of Genin, and then let them gradually advance in rank based on their own abilities.
Some might say, doesn't this still favor ninja clans and ninjas? But as the saying goes, how can ten years of hard study compare to three generations of business?
Senju Tobirama remained silent, pondering the feasibility of Uchiha Kō's words. Finally, he nodded, "It's feasible. This will make those who reap the benefits feel threatened, thus motivating them to work harder, and giving those who strive will the opportunity to reach a better platform."
"This approach is much more reasonable, but the key question is, Owl, are you going to let your compassion get the better of you and end up popularizing B-rank or even A-rank Ninjutsu?"
"If you do this, you will be negating the efforts of generations of powerful clans and emboldening the common people. Can you handle this balance well?" Senju Tobirama looked at Uchiha Kō with a serious expression.
Uchiha Kō took a deep breath and nodded.
