Notes for readers: At the scene of the fourth battle of the Impure World, Orochimaru had an accident due to the author's coercion, and the Impure World produced the young pillar. The author's logic is terrible, please read on if you think it's OK.

——

  "Imperial World Reincarnation Technique!"

  In the Namen Hall of the Uzumaki clan, after everything was properly prepared, Orochimaru slapped his hand suspended in the air on the technique. At the same time, the replicas of the White Zetsu who were used as sacrifices in the technique began to scream miserably, and the Impure World that spread from the ground quickly wrapped them up. As the wailing weakened, the Impure World that was only a pile of soil at first actually formed the shape of a "person" in just a few seconds. But...

  ——Isn't the difference in body shape too big?

  The injured Orochimaru noticed that something seemed wrong, but at this time he didn't care so much, and said to the three people who had been waiting for a long time: "It's coming!" Then he abandoned the original body that could no longer be used, and used the secret method of molting to enter the body of the White Zetsu who was suppressed by Suigetsu.

  He thought that this perfect masterpiece of his own would surely be able to answer all the confusions of Sasuke, and he couldn't help but smile and raised his head, saying hoarsely: "The people who know everything..."

  "——The generations of Hokage." The dark golden snake eyes swept over the Hokage standing in the flying dust: the fourth generation of Minato Namikaze, the third generation of Hiruzen Sarutobi, the second generation of Tobi Senju...?

  No, that's not right. Looking at the so-called "second generation" in front of him, who was obviously still a child, Orochimaru's thinking could not help but pause for a second. Then he turned his head and looked at the "first generation" next to him - still in the shape of a child.

  What's going on? He had enough ability to be confident that his Impure World Reincarnation would not have any problems, but the scene in front of him made him unbelievable. Could it be that there was something wrong with the DNA? No, he clearly used this DNA to successfully summon the first and second generations during the "Konoha Collapse Plan". It can't be the wrong DNA.

  Thinking of this, Orochimaru realized something and suddenly opened his eyes wide: Who secretly swapped the DNA? According to the information he got from Kabuto, it was definitely not Kabuto. Then, it was "Madara"?

  "Hey, Lord Orochimaru. These two little kids are the first and second generation? Did you summon them wrong?" Suigetsu stared at the two children in amazement, and raised his eyebrows for a long time before asking, "Whose children are these? They are so pitiful and died so young?"

  "Ah? What?" When Hashirama regained consciousness, he only heard the second half of Suigetsu's words. He turned and asked, "Whose child died?"

  "Brother...?" The white-haired boy next to him, who had been subconsciously sensing the situation outside, frowned. Except for his brother, there was unfamiliar chakra all around. He looked up, not to mention the unfamiliar environment, "Where is this?"

  Hearing the white-haired boy's address to the black-haired boy, another shocking possibility emerged in Orochimaru's mind. He curled the corners of his mouth with interest and explained, "This is the Namen-do of the Uzumaki clan." Hearing

  this, the white-haired boy's brows were twisted even more. The man not far away, who was filled with the breath of snakes all over his body, laughed more and more wantonly, which was really disgusting. But he ignored him and turned to look at his elder brother, only to find that his face was inexplicably covered with mottled cracks and the whites of his eyes had turned black. He couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"

  "What?" Hashirama heard this and turned to look at his younger brother, only to find that he was in the same situation as his brother. He was startled and the sound he uttered rose an octave, "Wow, Tobirama, why are your face full of wrinkles! When did you get so old?!"

  "...Shut up!"

  "What? Am I older than you, brother? No way! I only..." Hashirama hadn't finished his words yet, but Tobirama on the side could no longer bear it. The death of Itama had made it difficult for him to remain calm, not to mention that after he was bewitched and agreed to his elder brother's proposal to sleep together, he found himself in such a situation again. It's really...

  "Shut up!" He finally couldn't help but said angrily.

  "Hmm..." Hashirama, who was still alive and kicking, suddenly shrank. He squatted down in a low voice, hugged his knees and began to mutter, "What... Why did Tobirama yell at big brother again? Big brother is so sad."

  Tobirama was almost furious. He didn't even understand what the situation was, but he was still playing tricks here. Was he really going to die?

  "Haha, you two brothers are really interesting... Senju Tobirama." It seems that even when these two were children, they were not exactly the same as described in the legend. Orochimaru stared at Tobirama from a distance, licked his lips like a snake spitting out its tongue, and the corners of his mouth that were obviously raised with bad intentions made Tobirama even more disgusted.

  Just a few simple conversations, but they showed the danger and uncertainty of this man. There was no sign on them that they were from the "Senju" clan, but he was able to confirm their identities so easily. Furthermore, although he had never seen his makeup, he did not look like a member of the Uzumaki clan. And now he had appeared so blatantly in the Uzumaki clan's Namen Hall. Who was he?

  Tobirama was alert to his surroundings without leaving any trace, and his body quietly protected Hashirama who was squatting on the ground. To be honest, he hated this snake. Especially the sinister smile on his face at all times.

  While Tobirama was thinking, the performances of others could be called very exciting. Suigetsu tried hard to recall what he knew about the first and second generations, but he could not match them with the two children in front of him: Hey, the first generation is the "God of Ninja", why is he scolded by his younger brother! Why did he have such a messy watermelon head when he was a child? Is there no one left in Konoha?

  Sasuke rarely doubted the credibility of Orochimaru. He frowned and looked deeply at the man who still had an unfathomable smile. Was there something wrong with his technique? Standing next to Sasuke, Jūgo still had no expression on his face. Now all he needed to follow was Sasuke's will. He had never been interested in Konoha, nor did he know much about it, but the appearance of the first and second generations was too surprising.

  "...Teacher?" From the initial uncertainty to the current confusion, Hiruzen, a disciple of the Senju brothers, hesitated for a long time before asking. Judging from his appearance and the information just now, he should be the teacher, but why is his body so young?

  Teacher? Hearing this, Tobirama tilted his head and found that the person who spoke was a thin old man, whose skin also had inexplicable cracks like theirs. There was a young man with golden hair a little further away from the old man, who was also exactly the same as them as expected.

  But Tobirama didn't know the old man after all. Seeing that the other party had indeed shouted at them just now, out of respect for the elderly and the kindness revealed in the man's words and deeds, he still tried to answer politely: "I don't know you."

  After he finished speaking, he clearly saw that the old man's expression seemed to become relieved. Then, with his excellent perception ability, he heard the old man muttering: "Sure enough..."

  Was it "no" or "yes"? If he recognized the wrong person, why would the old man look so relieved. To Tobirama, this didn't make sense.

  But if the so-called "teacher" really refers to himself or his elder brother, it is impossible for them to be of the same age... No!

  Tobirama suddenly recalled that he had accidentally seen those scrolls in the clan's library that had become dilapidated due to the long time and continuous war. There was a fragment that recorded the concept of "time and space". There was even a small part of the detailed explanation of "time and space ninjutsu" at the end of the fragment.

  Space-time ninjutsu can allow the caster or an object to freely travel between real space or different dimensions. Generally speaking, the time axis of the user is fixed, but according to the description of time and space above, as well as the existence of parallel space, it is possible to change the time axis horizontally and jump space. Then maybe changing the vertical time axis is also possible?

  Following this line of thought, Tobirama finally came to a very bold but reasonable conclusion: they may have come to the "future".

  He looked at Hashirama, who was still depressed, with a headache. His dear silly brother was still immersed in his own world and couldn't extricate himself. Well, don't count on him.

  "Is this the future?" Even if the snake was extremely disgusting, some principled things must be asked clearly, "relative to us?"

  Sure enough, when he asked the first half of the sentence, the snake began to laugh. The laughter rolled in his throat, sounding dry and hoarse, and Tobirama knew that he guessed right.

  "Orochimaru, you did all this?" Hiruzen looked at his disciple with mixed feelings, "Not only did you take the trouble to get Minato and me out of the belly of the god of death, you also summoned our past teacher. What on earth are you thinking?"

  "I did this?" Orochimaru stopped laughing and looked at Hiruzen leisurely, "Teacher Sarutobi, the inventor of the Impure World Reincarnation is the second generation, it seems more appropriate for you to ask him than to ask me."

  "——I never knew that this technique can not only call the dead back to the present world, but also send people from the past to the future."

  After saying this, Orochimaru paused and glanced at Tobirama as if mockingly, "Oh, of course. My most respected second generation Hokage is still just a child now."

  Is this the performance of saying that you respect him? Tobirama has always sneered at such boring and low-level interests. He doesn't know what kind of mentality his future self has when inventing this technique that blasphemes the dead. But what he cares more about is the title of "second generation Hokage".

  This is obviously the title of a leader. He has never heard of it before, and it is not specifically referring to words like "Deputy Chief of the Senju Clan". Then...

  Tobirama knew very well that his elder brother had always insisted on achieving true peace through the practice of forming an alliance through agreements. Although his elder brother was usually careless and silly, he had a tenacity and leadership temperament in his bones. If his elder brother wanted to do something, he, as a younger brother, would definitely assist him. He had no reason not to believe that all this could become a reality in the future.

  Orochimaru carefully observed Tobirama's reaction, and there was no boredom or calmness as expected. The corners of the young second generation's mouth slightly raised, and his usually cold red eyes seemed to reveal a bit of warmth.

  ——This doesn't look like a smile from anger at all, Orochimaru thought.

  "Tobirama, Tobirama! Are you not angry anymore?" Hashirama, who gently tugged at Tobirama's trouser legs, actually had been secretly glancing at Tobirama and suddenly found that his younger brother, who had been inexplicably depressed since he came here, actually smiled. His often furrowed brows finally relaxed, and his sharp phoenix eyes softened. Together with his slightly upturned mouth, his snow-white hair and skin were as beautiful as the melting snow in early spring.

  Hashirama was stunned for a moment. He hadn't seen Tobirama smile like this for a long time since Kawarama's death. He felt as if a small brush with fine bristles was stirring his heart back and forth. Unconsciously, something seemed to be touched.

  "I was not mad at you, big brother," Tobirama couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when he saw Hashirama squatting on the ground and hugging himself. However, it was too disrespectful to him to show off regardless of the occasion. However, he couldn't say the words of blame, so he could only pout and said, "It's just that big brother is too noisy."

  Hashirama, whose mind was full of his brother not mad at me, perfectly ignored the second half of the sentence. He jumped three feet high with joy on his face, hugged Tobirama, and shouted as if swearing his sovereignty: "Tobirama, you are so nice! Big brother really likes Tobirama the most!"

  Tobirama was caught off guard by such a straight ball in public, and a blush appeared on his pale little face in an instant, "... Shut up! Don't say such disgusting words!" He hurriedly scolded without any dignity, and pushed Hashirama away with his hand. But Hashirama still held his waist tightly, clinging to him like an octopus, unwilling to let go for a moment, and muttered: "Hey, don't be shy, Tobirama! You have been like this since you were a child, and your elder brother knows it. It's okay."

  After that, he rubbed Tobirama's waist with his watermelon head, causing the sensitive Tobirama to tremble and his face became redder. He just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. But he still tried to pretend that nothing had happened. He snorted and turned his head away, ignoring Hashirama.

  "Wow--" Seeing this, Orochimaru raised his eyebrows subtly and laughed in a low voice, "This is really..."

  "Ah..." Orochimaru's words floated into his ears from afar, and the good junior Minato who had been watching obediently couldn't help but smile knowingly. The first and second generations are really unexpectedly cute.

  But my little Naruto is even cuter. Minato thought with a smile, of course, he didn't dare to say these words.

  If Orochimaru and Minato found it unexpectedly interesting, then for Hiruzen, who had admired the Senju brothers in their prime since he was born, the mature and steady image of the two brothers in his mind could not help but show a little crack. To be fair

  , Hashirama-sama was still acceptable, after all, he was always kind and easy-going. And Tobirama-forgive his dullness, Tobirama, who was always more rational and calm than Hashirama in his eyes, would never be like that just now... He actually had some "Uchiha" family tsundere?

  This was a Tobirama-sama he had never seen before, but to be honest, perhaps this kind of Tobirama-sama was more like a real "human".

  After Hashirama-sama's death, Tobirama-sama, who didn't show his emotions in front of others, became more and more closed, and his rare smile became even fewer. At first, he was addicted to work and research, and he had no time for daily life, sometimes even staying up for several days, as if he wanted to forget the dead. But the bloodshot eyes and the heavy dark circles under his eyes contrasted with each other, making his pale face really worrying, especially after experiencing such continuous and high-intensity labor, he still remained energetic and did not appear to be depressed at all - he really couldn't imagine the state of Mr. Tobirama at that time.

  Fortunately, not long after, after conducting a suspected failed experiment alone, Mr. Tobirama stopped squeezing himself and stopped this "self-mutilation" behavior that even with an immortal body could not bear.

  Then he went home to rest after instructing the short-term work. After sleeping for less than two days, he returned to work. Although he still stayed up late every day, he had a degree, at least he would not stay up for several days like before.

  Seeing this, they, as disciples, felt much more at ease, and worked harder to help the teacher share their duties. As his free time increased, he would sometimes see Mr. Tobirama staring at a lush tree outside the window.

  It seemed that this tree was planted by Mr. Hashirama himself after clearing the original forest when the village was first built. He said that this was the best location and must be used as an administrative building. It stands to reason that this tree should not have grown so lush in just over a decade. It even looked more like a century-old tree. The day it became tall and lush was the day that Mr. Hashirama passed away - anyone with a keen eye could guess that this was the work of Mr. Hashirama.

  If asked why, he didn't know at the time, but with the growth of his experience, he now has a rough guess - it must be the last gift and protection from the elder brother to his younger brother.

  The next day was Mr. Hashirama's funeral and Mr. Tobirama's succession ceremony.

  He still remembered that Tobirama's behavior was as if a stranger who had nothing to do with him had died. If there was anything special about this stranger, it was that he was particularly great - great enough to end the war and establish a new order, the God of Ninjas, the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama.

  In his memory, Tobirama expressed his remembrance and praise for the deceased first Hokage step by step, and there was no lack of flattering words, but they still felt that this was not excessive: in that era, Hashirama was indeed such a person. During this period, Tobirama's tone was steady and powerful, and even the solemn expression on his face had never changed a bit, let alone shedding a tear for his brother who was thicker than blood.

  Until the end, when he said that he would inherit his brother's will and succeed the second generation Hokage, Tobirama was very calm, even abnormal.

  At least that's what the students of these teachers thought, but in the eyes of those who were curious, the calmness at this time was tantamount to cold-bloodedness.

  Konoha, which had lost the "Shura of the Ninja World" and the "God of Ninja" in succession, undoubtedly made the Ninja World, which had just calmed down, tense again.

  In just a few days, rumors about Mr. Tobirama had spread throughout the village.

  - You say, can someone who doesn't even care about his eldest brother still care about us?

  These are not such unbearable words, but they can hit people's hearts more directly.

  At first, people were just skeptical. In order to further fuel the flames, some people even dug up the last fight between the Senju and Uchiha clans. The focus of that fight was: "Senju Tobirama attempted to kill Uchiha Madara and let Senju Hashirama commit suicide." A stone stirred up a thousand waves. Konoha's still stable political situation became turbulent again in an instant, and everyone was in danger.

  They naturally didn't believe it, but one after another rumors that seemed like ironclad evidence were placed in front of them and even the whole village: Senju Tobirama forced Uchiha Madara away and killed Senju Hashirama - all of this was for his ultimate goal: to control the overall situation

  of Konoha. Even they couldn't help but feel a little shaken in the panic. They hoped more and more that the teacher would clarify the rumors in public, but the teacher turned a deaf ear to them and handled affairs and teaching as usual, ignoring all kinds of situations.

  Until even the most stable and introverted Kagami couldn't help it, they stopped Tobirama teacher in the afternoon after class and asked him hurriedly, but they were just silent in return.

  ... Is it only silence?

  After a long period of silence, Tobirama finally chose to pass them. At the moment of passing by, they all heard the almost inaudible, suppressed voice: "-Indeed, it would be good if it were like this." There seemed to be a faint laugh, but it soon disappeared in the breeze as the teacher's figure blurred.

  They looked at each other, stunned in the same place.

  Only half an hour after Tobirama left, a new round of rumors followed, and this time they became the sharpest "sword".

  Faced with the questioning of his beloved student, Senju Tobirama was speechless and fled in a hurry-this news from the Hokage's office shocked them to a great extent. The

  young boys who had not experienced much in the world had never thought that the world was so difficult: someone had been watching them all the time, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that they were watching the teacher.

  It seems that the teacher should know about it, otherwise he would not talk to them secretly. Just solved a puzzle, but immediately fell into a more bizarre and unpredictable mystery.

  ——Why? Why would someone dare to target the teacher? Why did the teacher know everything but remain indifferent?

  The real answer to them was the "purge" that night.

  Ghostly figures silently killed the danger in the cradle, and the reactionary elements with ulterior motives had already been beheaded in just one night - the assassination tactical special forces was the name they announced the next day.

  This brand-new organization is directly under the Hokage, and the work is directly assigned by the Hokage. All actions and achievements will not be made public.

  Of course, as a department that came out of nowhere, the special time special office urgently needs to make a name for itself, and everything last night was the visiting card they presented to Konoha at the instruction of the Hokage.

  At the meeting, the long-silent "Second Generation Hokage" officially showed his edge in front of people for the first time. It was at that time that people realized that the strong men of this era were not only Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara. They were so dazzling that they overshadowed others - just like Senju Tobirama in front of him.

  Everyone knows that he is an excellent assistant, but that is based on the fact that Hashirama Senju is still alive; now that he is forced to step into the foreground due to reality, he may not be an unexcellent leader.

  When the enemy is intoxicated with the victory that is within his grasp, he takes sudden and cold measures, which shows that he is rigorous and deep in thinking.

  The establishment of the Anbu organization is undoubtedly a good move: while strengthening the centralization of power of the Hokage, it also weakens the power of the family in disguise, and can even directly bypass the various clans to exercise power at critical moments. His political skills are shrewd and tough, which is really admirable. And if you think about it carefully, such a huge organization must not be established overnight, and his long-term and precise vision is even more impressive.

  Even if this is a political method that is completely opposite to Hashirama Senju, vigorous and resolute, steady and pragmatic, it still cannot cover up the brilliance of his political methods.

  Therefore, when Senju Tobirama smiled and said, "Because the Anbu is newly established, there is a shortage of manpower," the eyes of all the clans present were instantly brightened. The Hokage needs helpers, and they need power. Why not do it for mutual benefit? The subsequent "Anbu welcomes any outstanding ninja from Konoha to join. Regardless of origin, gender, or age, it only depends on whether you are willing to serve Konoha and whether you are good enough" set off the scene. The heads of all clans wanted to get a share for their own families, and they all recommended the talents in the clan to enter the power center.

  Even when thinking back many years later, Hiruzen couldn't help but applaud for this. It was really convincing to get multiple birds in one fell swoop. Even though Konoha reached its peak under his rule, he believed from the bottom of his heart that he was really inferior to the first and second generations.

  As for the unfounded rumors, they were later clarified by Mito-sama: "As the eldest sister-in-law, don't I know who my uncle is? If you insist that I have only known him for a short time, then Hashirama is deaf and blind, and he can't even see through his own brother? Judging others by one's own meanness will only bring shame upon oneself. Moreover, the two brothers have always put justice first, so how can they care about their love? When a dispute is imminent, is it really safe to show weakness to the enemy? You are not as good as a woman like me, so how can you criticize Tobirama?"

  "Besides, he is a stubborn guy. He said nothing, not to me, not to his brother." In private, Mito-sama called a few of them and told them, "If you keep things to yourself, how can you live well? You see, he didn't even shed a tear at Hashirama's funeral. Maybe he had already cried secretly somewhere."

  At this point, Mito-sama smiled and said, "Of course, even if he didn't cry, the pain in his heart would not be less than mine - or even more. You students should also understand and bear your teachers."

  It was at that time that they realized that Tobirama-sensei was not as indifferent to all this as he appeared on the surface. He just kept this longing and concern deep in his heart and didn't reveal it easily.

  Maybe it was because of this that Tobirama-sensei was gentler than anyone else.

  Thinking of this, Hiruzen looked at Tobirama with a particularly gentle look. Tobirama, who had a strong sense of perception, naturally noticed Hiruzen's gaze. He stole a few glances at him uncomfortably, and inadvertently received the other party's indescribable loving smile.

  He pouted silently, raised his hand with a little embarrassment and gently pushed Hashirama who was still entangled with him: "... Stop it, big brother, get up quickly."

  But Hashirama, who was particularly sensitive in some aspects, didn't want to follow his wishes. He hit the nail on the head, as if he was worried that others didn't know, "Tobirama, what were you peeking at just now! You must be shy and want to divert attention! Damn, big brother, am I not good enough? I actually secretly look at others, oo..."

  "... Shut up for a while, stupid big brother!"

  Tobirama roared in shame and anger. This guy can climb up quickly if you give him a pole. Next time, I will definitely, definitely not even give him a pole, and directly dig a big pit for him to throw into the pit!

  "—— Enough of the trouble."

  Sasuke, who had been watching, finally couldn't help but speak. He had something he wanted to confirm. "I am Uchiha Sasuke. Putting aside the summoning error, the third generation Hokage, I have something to ask you."

  Uchiha? !

  That person turned out to be Uchiha? !

  Tobirama looked at Sasuke deeply, and he clenched his fists with shaking hands: his only two younger brothers, Itama and Kama, were killed by them...

  At the same time, Hashirama suddenly loosened his arms and stretched out his hands to hold Tobirama's wrists tightly, stopping his trembling.

  Tobirama looked down in surprise, but he was looking at Hashirama who was looking up. His own appearance was reflected in his obsidian-like pupils. Then he saw his elder brother's mouth opening and closing, and even he, who was always calm and self-controlled, could not help but lose his mind. It was clearly saying:

  "-I will definitely protect you."

  "Is it Sasuke?" Hiruzen was a little surprised. For him, it was just a blink of an eye, but the boy had grown into a young man without knowing when, and those immaturity had long been like a passing cloud, annihilated in the wind.

  "Why would Itachi do such a thing?" Sasuke thought of the brother who loved him and Konoha until his death, "I want to hear everything about Itachi from you."

  "It seems that you know everything." Hiruzen sighed, "In that case, I will tell you everything about Itachi without reservation."

  After Hiruzen made the whole incident public, Sasuke could not calm down for a while. He pursed his lips and murmured, "As expected..."

  "Come to think of it, wasn't it the Second Hokage who really pushed the Uchiha into despair?" Orochimaru on the side spoke slowly, looking at Tobirama with a gleam in his dark golden snake eyes, "The Uchiha Police Department he founded was the fuse of everything - don't you agree, Tobirama?"

  Looking at Tobirama with an indifferent face, Orochimaru curled his lips maliciously: "Those who punish others will be hated, and those who hold power are prone to be arrogant. Even though you are still young, you should understand this truth, right?"

  "Or should I pretend not to understand like you, the Second Hokage?"

  "Since the future me did that, he must have weighed it." Tobirama crossed his arms and looked coldly at Orochimaru who was hostile to him, "Even though the Senju and Uchiha are enemies, I will not target them everywhere because of personal feelings like someone else."

  "Hmph, that's a good thing to say. But the Uchiha clan was eventually wiped out, leaving only the last descendant beside me."

  Orochimaru sneered, then turned his gaze to Sasuke, raised his eyebrows and encouraged: "Why not kill the young Tobirama here and put an end to it all. Although the Impure World Reincarnation cannot be killed, their souls can be sealed. I think with this in mind, without the exclusion and suppression of the second generation, the Uchiha clan would not have been wiped out, right?"

  "...Enough!"

  Before Sasuke could answer, Hashirama, who had been silent for a long time, jumped out. He stood up with his head down, and stretched out his hands forcefully to protect Tobirama behind him: "It has been like this from the beginning. You have been targeting Tobirama everywhere. Just because of that empty future, you still want to kill him?"

  "Tobirama has a good temper, so you are just taking advantage of him? This is my younger brother, and you don't allow others to interfere!" Hashirama looked up with a terrifying expression, staring at Orochimaru, with unquestionable determination in his eyes, "If you want to touch Tobirama, kill me first!"

  "Brother..." Tobirama's voice trembled for a moment. He suppressed the emotion that was about to burst out in his heart, stepped forward and patted Hashirama's arm, "You can kill me, but let my brother go. After all, you are only targeting me, you just need to remove the jutsu that summons him first."

  "Tobirama! I said, I will definitely protect you! You are my last brother! If they want to touch you, they must step over my body first!"

  "The two adults are really brothers." Orochimaru said in admiration, and then asked, "Then, Sasuke, what do you want to do? Kill them, or--" "

  ...let them go."

  "Oh, are you sure?"

  Are all brothers like this? The first generation was like this, Itachi... was also like this.

  Thinking of this, Sasuke closed his eyes a little tiredly. Inheriting their ambitions and protecting the village they worked so hard for seemed... not bad?

  Itachi, you will be happy if I do this, right?

  "--I don't want to say it again." Sasuke opened his eyes, and the bottom of the six-pointed star was a circle surrounded by three magatama. The two rotated each other, and the weirdness was shocking.

  "Since you have found the answer you want, then it will be as you wish." Orochimaru said, and he made a seal with his hands, "Impure World Reincarnation - Release!"

  The filth flew everywhere, and Hashirama was surprised that Sasuke let them go so easily, but this did not prevent him from smiling brightly and thanking him sincerely: "Sasuke, thank you! Thank you for protecting my brother, thank you!"

  Tobirama also rarely spoke to thank him: "Thank you."

  "It's nothing. Even if I don't let you go, don't you still plan to protect your brother? You are a very good brother."

  "Me?" Hashirama paused and smiled, "No, I only protected my last brother. Your brother Itachi is a much better brother than me. He has been protecting you, hasn't he?"

  "So, keep going! Sasuke."

  Before Sasuke could respond, the soul in the other world had disappeared, and only the filth that slowly fell to the ground could prove that all this was not a dream.

  He couldn't help but smile: "Well, I will."

–

  Somewhere on the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

  "Is it that ninja named Orochimaru who is behind this again?" Tobirama asked, looking at his impure body with an impatient look on his face.

  "What do you mean?" Hashirama looked around in confusion, looking at Minato as if he had discovered a new continent, "Well, who are you, kid?"

  The atmosphere was wrong.

  Tobirama frowned rather sharply, especially at their eyes. And his elder brother was still stupidly unaware.

  What was wrong? Tobirama was puzzled.

  ——It's a pity that he won't know.
