Everyone could clearly sense that this God of Shinobi was seriously looking at them.

Regardless of their ulterior motives, at this moment, when they faced the Lord Hokage, the flame that had long been extinguished in their hearts was rekindled.

"Now, first, let's talk about the instigator of this war." Senju Hashirama, with unwavering resolve, gave the person who initiated this conflict no room to struggle. He stood up and stated his decision directly. "One of the masterminds is the missing-nin Uchiha Obito. He has been captured and is under strict surveillance by the Uchiha Clan. I, Wu Zu with Fugaku and Shingen, have jointly conducted an investigation. We are all deeply saddened by this young man's fate, but his actions have severely harmed the village. No matter what, he cannot be treated leniently. I propose his execution. Considering Uchiha Obito's contributions to the village before his betrayal, the execution will be carried out on a small scale, and his body will be recovered by the Uchiha Clan afterward. Now, please vote."

After speaking, Senju Hashirama sat down again and raised his hand.

The second person to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

He heard Senju Hashirama's decision and understood the man's meaning, so he decisively abandoned his original plan.

His raised hand made the leaders of the Sarutobi Clan's faction realize the situation.

In this lineage, no one understands the First Hokage better than Hiruzen Sarutobi Hiruzen.

In Leaf Village, no one was willing to go against the First Hokage, not even through Impure World Reincarnation.

Otherwise, why don't some brave soul go and say, "This isn't the real First?" Everyone will help him buy a nice coffin.

Even if I don't get killed by the Senju Muzoku, I'll still send Tsunade flying with one punch.

The third person to raise their hand was Uchiha Fugaku.

He shouldn't Sarutobi Hiruzen; it would be inappropriate for him to be the first to raise his hand.

But the second one must be him.

After Namikaze Minato raised his hand, everyone else followed suit and raised their hands without any further distinction.

Just as he had done in his lifetime, Senju Hashirama's proposal was passed unanimously.

"Killing someone the next day is unlucky; kill them now," said Senju Muzoku immediately. "A great battle is imminent, and a blood sacrifice is needed. Who will use the Flying Thunder God Technique to bring it over?"

"I'll go," said Uchiha Shingen.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that he's showing off his Flying Thunder God, but rather that he's been stared at intently by Senju Tobirama ever since he entered the arena.

Uchiha Shingen really missed Senju Tobirama. When he entered and saw that familiar face, he almost blurted out, "Second brother, are you alright?"

But... the way that rich dog looked at him was absolutely terrifying!

With so many people in the audience, why are they staring at him the whole time?

What exactly did I say to the rich dog during my first playthrough?

After leaving with the Flying Thunder God Technique, Uchiha Shingen appeared in the dungeon, while Uchiha Obito looked dejected, clearly exhausted from the first timeline's techniques.

Upon seeing Uchiha Shingen, he opened his mouth as if to say something, but Uchiha Shingen had already placed a hand on him and activated the Flying Thunder God once again.

Chapter 71 Execution of Obito 4K

Using the Flying Thunder God to instantly return to the Hokage Building, of course, doesn't mean instantly returning to the conference room.

People are sitting too close together; someone might accidentally kick someone in the face with their Obito feet.

Stomping on the face with a foot is a minor issue; the real problem is that Obito for so long, he smells quite strongly...

We're all ninjas, but we're also clean people.

Therefore Uchiha Shingen instantly teleported to the adjacent tea room.

Uchiha Shingen asked Uchiha Obito in a chair. He looked at him with a complex but firm expression.

Not everything can be changed.

The Uchiha Clan's greatest weakness is their tendency to go to extremes, yet they are also highly proactive.

As to whether this was due to the promotion of the Emotional Sharingan, or whether this personality led to the creation of the Emotional Sharingan, it's hard to say.

Uchiha Obito the look in Uchiha Shingen's eyes.

"Are they trying to kill me?"

"What do you think?" Uchiha Shingen looked at Uchiha Obito's right eye, which was a Three-Tomoe Sharingan. Without Uchiha Obito activating his Mangekyo Sharingan, it was impossible to tell the difference.

"Don't even think about Transcription Seal," Uchiha Shingen said. "The clan head and Shisui, like you, have the Mangekyo Sharingan; they can remove it."

The Transcription Seal is a Sealing Jutsu specific to the Mangekyo Sharingan; to break it, another Mangekyo Sharingan is required.

The Uchiha Clan now has two pairs of Mangekyou Mangekyo Sharingan.

Even if there are no pairs, Uchiha Shingen can still break free.

Would he do that? The answer is yes.

Kamui must be kept in the hands of the Uchiha Clan, and Hatake Kakashi's other eye must also be retrieved.

The one who makes the move and the one who receives the move are always relative.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen his move, it also gave the Uchiha Clan an opportunity to make their own.

Ever since Uchiha Obito of Land of Rain, the meaning of the other eye that Uchiha Obito gave to Hatake Kakashi has changed.

On one hand, it's the Mangekyō Sharingan; on the other hand, the nature of the giver has also changed.

Uchiha Fugaku never forgot his intention to reclaim that eye.

The Uchiha Clan has been dragging their Obito for so long not because they are unwilling or afraid to kill Obito, but because their Hatake Kakashi.

Both of them Kamui; not one can be missing!

Uchiha Fugaku had already planned it all out. After retrieving Kamui, he would persuade Uchiha Shingen to transplant those eyes. The principle behind the Eternal Mangekyo was actually quite simple: it was simply a matter of using another person's Mangekyō Sharingan as a medium to create a reaction between the two Mangekyo Sharingan powers, thereby achieving a stronger eye power.

The removed Mangekyo Sharingan isn't some kind of divine artifact. Once the ocular power stored within it is depleted, it's just an ordinary eyeball. All the wonder comes from the ocular power, not from the eyeball itself—a fact the Uchiha Clan understood long ago.

Uchiha Shingen was unaware of Uchiha Fugaku's thoughts, but he knew about the clan's decision to retrieve Hatake Kakashi's eyes.

This is something that can only be discussed after the war; in principle, the Uchiha Clan will resolve it through a trade.

This is the rule, after all, Hatake Kakashi didn't forcibly take Uchiha Obito then, so he bears no responsibility for that.

"Yeah..."

Obito Uchiha Shingen didn't react much to Uchiha Obito's words.

During his time imprisoned in the dungeon, he discovered that Black Zetsu had not appeared, and he also learned that Uchiha Madara had been Impure World Reincarnation, but he too had not appeared.

This means that I have been abandoned.

His eyes, too, will become something to be coveted.

In this situation, even if Orochimaru could still keep his promise, he probably wouldn't live to see it.

Without White Zetsu, there's no way to buy time, and all backup plans become meaningless.

"So, it seems I'm destined to die?" Uchiha Obito looked at Uchiha Shingen. "Who will make the move?"

"I," Uchiha Shingen said, "If I can make the decision, I will send you away."

"That's not a bad idea either." Uchiha Obito. "What if you can't make the decision?"

"That's most likely the First Hokage himself."

"That's acceptable then." Hearing this answer, Uchiha Obito wasn't angry at all.

There was a subtle sense of relief, on the contrary.

Uchiha Obito no longer cared about his own life.

"It seems this era still belongs to the ninjas," he said softly.

Uchiha Shingen did not respond to that statement.

He knew, of course, that Uchiha Obito wasn't driven to impotent rage by the death of his comrades and thus seeking revenge on society, but rather genuinely felt that the current system was flawed.

However, on the surface, he still acted out of respect for his companions.

At the same time, he not only had no concept of the village, but also no concept of family; he was a pure individualist.

His experience and knowledge were insufficient to support him in establishing a new system, yet he was unwilling to submit, so he simply turned to the dark side and embarked on this path, which is very much in line with his personality and not surprising at all.

It's not surprising that they lost.

Although Uchiha Obito was furious, he wasn't incompetent. Uchiha Shingen was planning; once he knew the direction, how could he not catch him?

Today, Uchiha Shingen has both money and manpower. With the power of the association and the intelligence network of the Uchiha Clan, he can monitor the Ninja World and take appropriate action at any time.

Ninjas are human too. When humans carry out plans, especially large-scale plans, it inevitably becomes a business. Even though White Zetsu need to eat, raising White Zetsu requires resources.

Uchiha Obito's constant travels meant he needed resources, and once he settled in a place, there would inevitably be large-scale resource transactions.

It's not necessary to send out a whole group of ninjas shouting and killing to constitute a proper response.

In this timeline, Uchiha Obito's love for adventure was, in a sense, driven by Uchiha Shingen.

The plan to exterminate the Uchiha Clan and cripple Leaf Village may have initially been Uchiha Obito's personal idea, but as things have developed, the two sides have become mortal enemies.

With the overall strength of Leaf Village soaring, the Uchiha Clan had more means to deal with this former junior brother who almost brought the clan to its doom, showing no mercy and constantly squeezing his space to maneuver.

"Are they having a meeting next door? Aren't you going back?" Uchiha Obito noticed that Uchiha Shingen had been staring at him for a long time and didn't leave, indicating that he wanted to be alone.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'll just stay by your side." Uchiha Shingen sat down opposite him. "Tell me, is there anything I can help with after your passing?"

"Then will you help me complete the Eye of the Moon?" Uchiha Obito asked.

"Dream on." Uchiha Shingen shook his head. "You'd better think it over carefully. This is all I can do to help you."

"Then let me tell you, Uchiha Madara, he..."

"I know, he's your master, including your Eye of the Moon Plan," Uchiha Shingen said. "They've all been using incarnations of will, those who know, know."

"..." Uchiha Obito was stunned.

He also remembered that when he first met Uchiha Shingen, he had identified himself as Uchiha Madara.

That was perhaps the biggest mistake he ever made.

"You know quite a lot..." Uchiha Obito silent.

He only has the Eye of the Moon left, and now that he's at his wit's end, he has no regrets.

[Kakashi, we're back to square one. Now, use my eyes to see this world properly...]

Seeing that Uchiha Obito had stopped speaking, Uchiha Shingen did not urge him on.

Uchiha Obito his own choice, and he respected it.

As long as you don't regret it before you die, that's fine.

But he must die.

Uchiha Shingen simply took out his pocket watch, checked the time, and continued to wait.

Time passed slowly, and about half an hour later, the door to the tea room opened, and a group of people walked in.

Senju Hashirama walked at the very front.

After that came several Hokage, and then the village's top military leaders.

This combination perfectly reflects the essence of Hidden Leaf Village.

"Shingen, you've had a tough time," Senju Hashirama sighed. "You must be feeling terrible too."

From Uchiha Fugaku, he learned about the relationship between Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Shingen.

This made him admire Uchiha Shingen even more.

Ten years of obscurity, but when the battle begins, it soars to new heights.

He has the village in his heart, and is able to take care of both.

Senju Hashirama also disagreed with simply compromising, as that was not the right attitude to solve problems.

He admires the approach taken by people like Uchiha Shingen.

They can uphold their principles, change others' preconceived notions about them, and also know how to reflect on themselves.

This kind of positive and principled negotiation is beneficial to the village.

"For the village," Uchiha Shingen said succinctly.

Because...

Damn it! That bastard is watching him again!

I admit I was wrong, okay? But tell me exactly what I did wrong!
