LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 2: The Little Brother Was Ganged Up On and Killed!
A minute later, in the Hokage's office.
Lux and Hashirama sat facing each other. Outside the door, Tobirama, like an annoyed woman, was eavesdropping with his ears raised.
Hashirama naturally noticed Tobirama's actions, so he had no choice but to take the lead and say helplessly:
"Do you need a sound muffler?"
"No need."
Lux didn't intend to hide it, and didn't care whether Tobirama was eavesdropping or not. As long as he could convince Hashirama himself, would Tobirama still be able to ride on his brother's head?
"Then what do you want to talk about?"
Lux paused and began to explain according to what was in his mind.
"Talk about the future of the entire ninja world."
"Oh?"
"One question per person, it seems fairer. If you don't force it, you can refuse to answer it." Lux suggested on his own initiative.
For someone like Hashirama, sincerity is often better than deception.
Hashirama also relaxed a little, and he was more willing to communicate with someone who was reasonable.
"You first."
Hashirama hesitated a little, but asked the question he was most concerned about first:
"Your eyes?"
"It's the Rinnegan!"
Lux admitted it honestly. Of course, it's best to use these eyes to show off, to add some weight to the negotiation.
"The eyes of the Rikudo Sennin, the most noble of the three doujutsu, actually exist! It seems that the legend is not a fairy tale. You and the Rikudo Sennin..."
"I know him, but he doesn't know me."
Did he not know the old man who liked to give gifts? Anyone who is a Naruto fan must know him.
However, these words sounded terrifying to Hashirama.
This person actually knows the Rikudo Sennin! The ancestor of Ninja! Could it be that he lived from ancient times to the present?
How is this possible?
But this pair of Rinnegan doesn't look fake...
"Who are you?"
"An immortal being who doesn't belong to this era."
Lux showed his card. In a sense, he could be considered an immortal being, an "immortal preparation" who has the main mission to become immortal.
Hashirama was surprised again. Although in my heart I didn't fully believe it, my surprise wasn't light.
He began to think about how to confirm the other party's identity without offending the other party.
"Now it's my turn."
"Sorry."
"Aren't you in a hurry to meet your gay friend?"
"You mean Madara? Don't worry, he'll wait for me!" Hashirama said confidently, patting his chest.
Lux smiled slightly, stopped teasing, and got straight to the point.
"First Hokage Senju Hashirama, what kind of world do you want to create?"
Hashirama's breath changed, his whole being became more serious, and he answered very seriously:
"I want to build a peaceful world where children don't have to fight!"
"Achieved through the village system called the ninja clan alliance?"
"Yes! The Village of Konoha, founded by the Uchiha and Senju, has been known by more and more people. The Land of Earth has given birth to the Village Iwagakure, and its leader calls himself the Tsuchikage. Other countries are also following suit. After such a village system is gradually improved, it will definitely replace the chaos of the Warring States Period. At least ninjas no longer need to be bound to wealthy families, and they will no longer experience endless wars..."
Hashirama personally experienced the darkness of the Warring States Period.
Even the strongest ninja clan like the Senju Clan couldn't survive alone. Only two of Senju Butsuma's five sons died.
During the Warring States Period, the average life expectancy was less than thirty years. Children who could lift swords were forced to fight on the battlefield.
It was precisely because Hashirama knew the cruelty of the Warring States Period that he worked hard to end it.
He has always been a doer, not a dreamer.
It's true that, in his own way, he ended the Warring States Period and ushered in a new era of Ninja Villages!
"Then how do you ensure that this ninja village system is correct? Will there be larger-scale wars between villages in the future?"
"I can't guarantee the future. But at this stage, this system is indeed effective and can indeed end the chaotic Warring States Period! And I'm also looking for ways to limit the major ninja villages in the future."
There was also a little excitement in his heart. This was a problem that Hashirama had thought about and planned to share and discuss with others.
"Bijuu?"
"I've considered it, but I haven't made contact with all the Bijuu. This village is still under construction, and I plan to make contact with various Bijuu after it stabilizes in a few years."
Although Hashirama was addicted to gambling, alcoholism, and revelry, he also thought deeply about the future of his village.
"Last question, is it the village that you want to protect? Or your relatives?"
"Of course..."
Hashirama hesitated. This answer was given more than a year ago, but now he is a little hesitant.
"Don't rush to answer. Let's hear about the future of Konoha first."
"In the 17th year of Konoha, the First Shinobi World War occurred."
"In the 37th year of Konoha, the Second Shinobi World War broke out."
"In the 45th year of Konoha, the Third Shinobi World War broke out."
"In the 68th year of Konoha, the Fourth Shinobi World War broke out..."
"In less than seventy years, there have been four Shinobi World Wars. The intensity and casualties of each Shinobi War are no less cruel than those during the Warring States Period."
"Is this what you call the peace maintained by the Ninja Village system?"
Hashirama was stunned, Lux's words were like a heavy hammer hitting his heart.
He speculated that the future wouldn't be too peaceful. It's human nature to compete for resources and pursue power, but he never expected that the war situation would be so tragic in just a few decades, four wars that impacted the entire world occurred.
Could the other party be deceiving him?
Or can the Rinnegan really see the future?
"Wait! What you said is true? Will it happen in the future? Can you predict the future?"
"Do you believe it?"
"I don't want to believe it..."
Hashirama was very sure that as long as he was alive, he would try his best to prevent the outbreak of the Shinobi World War.
Logically, wars shouldn't happen so often, right?
Except...
Lux saw Hashirama's hesitation and said frankly: "You're right. You died in the 16th year of Konoha. A year after your death, the First Shinobi World War suddenly broke out!"
"Impossible!"
The door suddenly opened, and Tobirama, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore.
He didn't believe that his brother would die so soon. No one in the entire ninja world could defeat Hashirama.
He wanted to expose the lies of this liar!
"Brother, don't believe his lies!"
"Tobirama!"
Hashirama shouted angrily and apologized for Tobirama's rude behavior.
"Brother, I..."
Lux didn't take this to heart, but continued to ask:
"Senju Tobirama, do you want to know how you died?"
"Ah?"
"You were ganged up on and killed by some Kumogakure ninjas."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Damn it, don't ever think about deceiving me. I'm not as easy to deceive as My big brother!"
Tobirama was furious and very excited.
He couldn't accept this kind of death!
He is a master of forbidden arts, with Hiraishin no Jutsu, Edo Tensei, talismans, Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, a set of Water Release Ninjutsu, etc... How could he be surrounded by some Kumogakure ninjas?
However, compared to Tobirama, Hashirama beside him was even more furious. An extraordinary killing intent overflowed from his body, and the almost solid chakra pressure instantly shattered the wooden floor.
Hashirama's concern for Tobirama was no worse than Madara's concern for Izuna.
Now that he heard that his beloved younger brother had been ganged up on and killed, of course he couldn't stay calm.
"Sir, can you explain it?"
"I can't explain it in a sentence or two, so I'll take you to see it."
"Ah? Go and see?"
"You'll know soon."
Lux had just finished speaking.
In the Hokage's office, Lux and Hashirama disappeared instantly without a trace.
This is also one of the system's abilities.
He can take the bound troop leader to another parallel world and forcibly return him after one hour.
Lux happened to take Hashirama to see how his beloved younger brother was ganged up on by Kumogakure Ninjas!
