What to Do About Uchiha Obito?
"It's sweet." Black Zetsu, determined not to back down, guessed.
Taste is subjective; if it seems real to you, then it is!
"These are roasted peanuts, still with salt on them!" Senju Muzoku sneered.
Margot is tasteless; he's just pretending to be something he's not.
So you just blurt it out like that? Is your salt sweet? This isn't your house.
The man with Senju Muzoku is a typical example of someone who has been scheming and plotting for too long and has become detached from the masses.
He doesn't even know that salt is salty.
Senju Muzoku turned his head and saw that Tsunade and Uchiha Shingen had already clinked glasses several times.
Tsunade usually drinks in a bold and unrestrained manner, but today's sake is of high quality, so she changed her drinking style.
Change from "tons" to "fine products".
The main reason is that, although she herself doesn't care, she can't act like someone without taste in front of an Uchiha Clan.
"Lady Tsunade, haven't you thought about returning to the village all these years?" Uchiha Shingen asked.
In the original timeline, Tsunade returned to the village and became the Fifth Hokage after Sarutobi Hiruzen's death.
The turning point was naturally Naruto Uzumaki.
In terms of time, it's precisely at this moment.
In this timeline, there's no Naruto Uzumaki to replace her as his younger brother.
Nor did Orochimaru was missing both hands, come to her for an appointment.
"This village is not short of a medical-nin." Even when Tsunade is appreciating wine, she has a more unrestrained and bold style than others.
The liquor began to take effect, and her face started to flush.
Her breasts appeared swollen.
"Besides, aren't you going to war? Shouldn't you be more concerned about Orochimaru than me?"
"Orochimaru ..." Uchiha Shingen smiled.
In front of Tsunade, he stopped pretending to use the title "sir".
However, speaking of Orochimaru, he only made a brief appearance in this incident and then disappeared.
And then there's Nagato. Although members of Akatsuki appeared, neither Nagato nor anyone else who appeared under the guise of Rain Village openly stood against Leaf Village.
As a result, Amegakure's unique status meant that Hidden Leaf Village couldn't just take any action against Nagato.
Hanzo had a history of opportunistic behavior, but he never officially turned against Hidden Leaf Village. He was an important supporting force for the Leaf Village ninja army on the western front. Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō still chose to protect Hanzo and eliminate Yahiko.
Yahiko's ideals are good, and he is indeed a good person, but his actions are not in line with the ecology of the Ninja World. Once the Akatsuki takes control of the Land of Rain, they may very well become enemies of Leaf Village.
What Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted was not an anti-war, peace-loving Rain Village, but a Rain Village that stood on Leaf Village's side and could help Leaf Village kill people.
Those without strength, wavering between left and right, end up pleasing neither side.
Those with real power can act however they want, and no one will find it despicable.
Those with power naturally have the right to negotiate prices.
Hanzo could negotiate the price, so could Nagato, and Orochimaru as well.
Over the years, Yugakure has become increasingly useless, even more so than right after the Third Shinobi World War.
Having established a Sound Village in the Land of Rice Fields, Otogakure naturally entered the chessboard of several major powers.
Unless Orochimaru publicly reveals his identity as the leader of Sound Village, no one will willingly expose him.
In the original timeline, there's nothing that can be done; Orochimaru himself admitted it in Leaf Village, and he killed the Kage of Leaf Village and Sand Village.
However, Leaf Village did not collapse, and the military alliance between Leaf Village and Sand Village continued.
Thus, the phenomenon of "Sound Village, literally "silent disappearance") truly came as a fleeting moment.
"Fine, if you don't want to hear it, then don't." Uchiha Shingen raised his cup in a gesture of respect, "A toast to you."
Tsunade generously touched it, then took a bite.
The Senju Muzoku watched for a while and felt that it was about time.
He felt that if he continued to tease his daughter like this, she would start to get cocky.
Don't ask him how he knows.
This is exactly like Da Zhuzi drinking! Their expressions and movements are perfectly synchronized!
So he stopped teasing Black Zetsu and got down to business.
"Ahem..." He coughed, seemingly in a serious manner.
"Does Impure World Reincarnation need to clear its throat?" Black Zetsu, having been teased by this guy for so long, wasn't going to miss any opportunity to insult him. "Why didn't you prepare a table of food before you summoned him?"
Senju Muzoku, he turned to Uchiha Shingen and asked, "Shingen- kun, you know my identity. Speaking of which, are you clear about your family lineage?"
Uchiha Shingen pretended not to understand.
You have to guess and analyze what others are thinking.
You know exactly what you're thinking, don't you?
Back then, watching Tsunade grow up Tenten, so innocent and naive, he couldn't help but wonder if Tsunade would still be the same as in the original timeline if he and his group were gone one day, and if there was any way to deal with it.
This also includes the assumption that one has been Impure World Reincarnation possessed by someone.
The moment he opened his mouth during his first playthrough, he knew what the other person wanted to say.
I can't respond to that.
"What family lineage stuff? That's so out of touch with reality." At this moment, Uchiha Shingen seemed to be back to before his wedding. "We don't talk like that when we're drinking. Come on, Lady Tsunade, let's have a drink."
"Alright." Tsunade was quite satisfied. After drinking half a bottle of wine, she now found Uchiha Shingen rather pleasing to the eye.
They even play drinking games.
There aren't many people who can drink with her so harmoniously.
Not to mention, he's an Uchiha Clan, which adds a lot of novelty.
However, she also took the words about Senju Muzoku to heart.
Uncle Wu Zu was a man from the Warring States period, and people of that era would never casually ask others such questions.
She enjoyed the drink so much that she decided to give the other person a reminder.
"Shingen, Uncle Wu Zu wouldn't ask such a question casually," Tsunade said. "Is there something special about your house?"
You should call me Uncle, isn't that special enough?
Uchiha Shingen sighed inwardly.
"It's not special at all. If I had to say something is special, it's probably that I'm the only one in three generations of my family who has been a ninja."
In a ninja clan, it's quite rare for a family to produce only one ninja across three generations.
"Shingen- kun, what you're saying makes me a little sad." Senju Muzoku shook his head, as if he were the one drinking. "Was your great-grandfather named Uchiha Clan Aoi?"
I knew it.
It's a pity you were so hasty.
"No, none of my elders have that name," Uchiha Shingen shook his head.
Chapter Sixty-Six: How to Deal with Uchiha Obito?
What Uchiha Shingen said is true.
When he started his second playthrough, this was the first question that came to his mind.
After all, he would feel very awkward being reborn into his own descendant.
Later, after his investigation, he concluded that the family in the second timeline were probably not descendants of the Uchiha Clan.
As for what happened to the girl named Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Shingen didn't know either, mainly because he couldn't investigate.
The Uchiha Clan only keeps records of ninjas within the clan, and Uchiha Clan was not a ninja.
"Oh, what a coincidence?" The woman with Senju Muzoku didn't seem to have given up. "So, what was your great-grandmother's name?"
"It's not the same person I was talking about, Wu Zu Muzu, so please don't worry about it," said Uchiha Shingen.
"That's not necessarily true, never mind." Senju Muzoku shook his head; this matter wasn't important anyway.
No, he can make it up.
He wasn't only involved with one girl Uchiha Clan Aoi, when he was in the Uchiha Clan.
In those days, in addition to open battles, there were also many covert clashes between the various ninja clans, and the honey trap was frequently used.
They even use their good looks to their advantage.
He himself couldn't count them all, so how could anyone nowadays possibly have any evidence to prove that he made it up?
"Shingen- kun, you have my Chakra within you. Because I once researched the Chakra Reincarnation Technique, only my descendants will possess my Chakra."
Black Zetsu stopped eating peanuts, looked at Senju Muzoku, and then at Uchiha Shingen.
That friend of his is really something, giving himself a title of seniority.
And they really dare to say it out loud, constantly changing their tune – that's what you call...
Tsunade stopped drinking.
She twisted her neck so fast that it made a cracking sound.
"Lord Muzu, studying things like Chakra reincarnation, which are from mythology, Wu Zu, but taking it too seriously isn't a good idea, is it?" Uchiha Shingen said expressionlessly.
This is an attempt to renege on the agreement.
He began to consider whether he should withdraw his Chakra now.
"That's an adult's secret, but I know it anyway." Senju Muzoku had been observing Tsunade's reaction.
Tsunade has no family left.
The Senju of the Forest, as descendants of Ashura, are a clan that inherited life force and physical energy from Hagoromo Otsutsuki, but they are not a bloodline clan.
Their behavior was less pronounced than that of the Uzumaki Clan.
The reason is that not all the people of the Senju of the Forest are descendants of Ashura.
The predecessor of the Senju of the Forest was the Ninshu. After the collapse of the Ninshu, Ashura and some of his followers' descendants formed the Senju of the Forest.
This is the origin of the name "Senju Clan".
After the ninja village was established and Ashura's power was lost, the members of the Senju of the Forest had no reason to continue maintaining the organization.
In this era, Ashura's descendants, strictly speaking, no longer exist. The disbandment of the Senju of the Forest means that the family line no longer exists.
According to the standards of the ninja village, Tsunade and Nawaki are no longer considered ninja clan members.
But even though she has no family, Tsunade still has relatives.
In terms of blood relations, the Uzumaki Clan and Uchiha Clan were her relatives, and there should still be some of them remaining in the village.
However, for Tsunade, there was no basis for establishing a sense of identification.
Although Senju Muzoku Uchiha Clan spent most of his life fighting with the Uchiha Clan, he didn't have any prejudice against them.
He didn't even have a strong sense of family honor towards the Senju Clan. During Tobirama's time, when the Wood Release experiments were stopped, the Senju Clan was already showing signs of disbanding, but he didn't try to stop it then.
In his view, disbanding the clan wasn't a bad thing. The Senju Clan was, in fact, without a successor. Tsunade was still a little kid and couldn't be relied on. The clan was just relying on a group of old men who could still fight. So, it was better to cash out the assets before they depreciated.
Selling at the peak is worthwhile.
He wasn't fixated on whether the Senju Clan had disbanded; what he cared about were Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, and his old comrades.
He believed Tsunade would care about the fact that he had his own descendants.
Establishing relations with the Uchiha Clan is a good approach. After all, to be fair, if it weren't for Senju Tobirama's machinations, the power of Hidden Leaf Village would have gradually fallen into the hands of the Uchiha Clan after the Senju Clan disbanded.
However, Senju Tobirama had great faith in the power of the collective, so he used various methods to prevent the Hokage from becoming a family-based organization.
Although Senju Muzoku looked down on the Uchiha Clan's way of life, he admired their tendency to act impulsively and prioritize loyalty, and believed that they couldn't change this tradition.
