Chapter 284 Uchiha Madara: Hashirama, your level of thinking is several versions behind mine!
"Ok?"
"That person's figure is so familiar!"
Uchiha Madara looked through the crowd and saw an extremely familiar figure.
That silly back.
Hashirama?!
No.
Hashirama is dead!
He has been dead for many years!
Now I must be seeing things.
How could Hashirama appear in front of him again?
The joy that rose in Uchiha Madara's heart turned into desolation in an instant. He missed Hashirama too much. But Uchiha Madara still raised his head and continued to look around, with a little hope in his heart.
What if?
Am I seeing things?
Not far away, the familiar figure is still clearly visible.
Who is this person in front of me?
Uchiha Madara quickened his pace and walked forward to find out what was going on. Senju Hashirama keenly noticed the prying gaze and turned around to see a familiar figure.
Who's that person in the distance?
spot?
No. Impossible.
Madara, is dead!
He was killed by his own hands, and even Madara's final body was brought back to Konoha Village by himself.
But who is this person?
Senju Hashirama walked towards Uchiha Madara. As the two gradually got closer, his eyes widened involuntarily, and he looked up at each other's faces with great anticipation.
He is not Madara/Hashirama after all.
But what is this familiar feeling?
So strange!!
Lost and confused were intertwined in the hearts of the two people, but their steps still did not stop. Soon they passed each other, but before they had taken a few steps, they suddenly turned back at the same time and looked at each other.
"Um, I think I've seen you somewhere!"
"Me too!"
"Your name is?"
Senju Hashirama subconsciously wanted to say his name, but suddenly remembered Uchiha Nan's advice that he must hide his identity when going out. Not only did he have to use transformation techniques to change his appearance, he also had to give himself a pseudonym!
Because if the news that the Shodaime Hokage was resurrected was suddenly exposed, it would definitely cause unnecessary unrest in Konoha!
In response to Uchiha Nan's request, Senju Hashirama agreed immediately.
"My name is Muban."
Senju Hashirama gave himself a nice-sounding pseudonym.
"My name is Madara-shin!"
The two smiled at each other. Although the other person was not Madara/Hashirama, they surprisingly got along well. Even though they didn't know each other, they always felt that they could see the shadow of Madara/Hashirama in each other. Even their names were so similar.
You must make friends with him!
"Is this your first time in Konoha?"
"I've been here before, but that was a long time ago. Now I'm revisiting the old place, but Konoha has changed so much that I almost couldn't recognize it."
"That's perfect. I'll take you to Konoha for a tour. I've lived in Konoha for several years!"
In response to Uchiha Madara's invitation, Senju Hashirama glanced at Uchiha Nan who was enjoying the cheers in the crowd.
I'm going to travel around Konoha with Uchiha Nan today. Wouldn't it be a bad idea to just leave Uchiha Nan behind?
But
There’s actually nothing wrong with this!
Uchiha Nan, I'm sorry.
It seemed more interesting to travel around Konoha with the man in front of me.
"Okay!"
Senju Hashirama thought of Uchiha Nan in his mind, but after 0.01 seconds, he agreed to Uchiha Madara!
"Let's go, the street over there is the most lively!!"
"oh oh!!"
Uchiha Madara called Senju Hashirama and came to the busiest street in Konoha. From the beginning to the end of the alley, Senju Hashirama kept asking questions like a curious baby, wanting to know more about the current Konoha and the "Madara Pillar" beside him.
Walking on the streets of Konoha, the person who appeared in front of Senju Hashirama had a light on his face that was different from the people of his era. It was a happy smile that only appeared on the face of someone who lived in peace and had forgotten the pain brought by the war.
so good!
This is what I have always been looking forward to and wanting to do!
"Konoha is really great now!"
Senju Hashirama looked at the prosperous scene of Konoha in front of him and couldn't help but smile. Even Uchiha Madara beside him was infected by the sunny smile on Senju Hashirama's face. In a trance, Uchiha Madara seemed to see that man again. Hashirama, my Hashirama
This man really looks like you!
It’s really good!
"Wow, what is that?"
"Is it a statue?"
"It's Hashirama, and my um... the statue of Uchiha Madara."
When Hashirama Senju heard Uchiha Madara's name, he immediately walked to the statue. Looking at the statue of Uchiha Madara in front of him, his eyes suddenly became complicated, and his thoughts were dragged back to the past. He remembered many things with Uchiha Madara.
The first time we met, the first time we played together, the first time we sparred, the first time we fought. And the last time we drank together, the last time we met, and the last time we fought.
Thinking about it now, it really seems like just another day.
"Madara, if you are still alive, please take a look at Konoha today. Our ideal has really been realized. I am sorry, but I am sorry, Madara, killing you is the right thing to do."
"Madara, your thoughts are too extreme and too unyielding. You will threaten the safety of the entire Konoha and even the entire ninja world."
Senju Hashirama looked at the statue in front of him and muttered silently in his heart.
He really wanted to see Uchiha Madara again, and he really had a lot to say to Uchiha Madara. He originally thought that as long as he died and his soul entered the legendary pure land, he would be able to see Uchiha Madara again and say sorry to him in person.
But
Hashirama Senju stayed in the Pure Land for many years, wandering unconsciously most of the time, and never met Uchiha Madara.
Maybe Madara still hates himself.
Don't want to see myself again.
Senju Hashirama thought so in his heart with a look of relief on his face. At least his choice was correct!
"what happened?"
Uchiha Madara noticed the change in Hashirama Senju's mood.
"Nothing. Seeing the statue reminded me of the past. I had a friend. We once shared the same ideals, but his personality was very similar to Uchiha Madara, stubborn and extreme. In the end, we parted ways for some reason."
"Is that so? Then we really get along well."
"I also have a friend. We once shared the same ideals, but his personality was very similar to Hashirama Senju. He was naive to the point of being stupid. In the end, we parted ways. He died and I survived. Facts proved that I was right, just like Hashirama Senju. He was wrong, terribly wrong."
"Huh?" Senju Hashirama was a little confused after hearing this.
I was wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
Obviously, Konoha is following my path and is now thriving.
"I don't like hearing what you say."
"What did Senju Hashirama do wrong? As long as people understand and tolerate each other, war can be avoided."
"Huh, you and Hashirama really look alike."
Uchiha Madara glanced at the "Wood Madara" beside him and smiled contemptuously. The guy in front of him had the same thoughts as Hashirama, and even the tone of his preaching was exactly the same.
"You are so ignorant. Even the students of the Ninja School know where Hashirama Senju went wrong. Konoha's textbooks have already made the final judgment on Hashirama Senju."
Warring States Period
The ninja clans fighting each other is the most painful memory for the older generation of ninjas, and no one wants to go back to that era.
This was the greatest achievement of the first Hokage, he ended the Warring States Period!
The Senju clan and the Uchiha clan joined forces to establish Konoha Village, and under the insistence of Senju Hashirama, the current one country, one village system was established.
In the beginning.
The ninja village system is indeed advanced!
After all, having rules is much better than having no rules, but that’s all.
The ninja village system brought many disasters to later generations. The ninja village system is like the killing efficiency brought by industrialization. It brought more casualties, just like the first ninja world war, which is simply a super meat grinder.
Bottom Line
Or it was because Hashirama Senju did not take advantage of the good situation to unify the ninja world.
Even if such a unification would only be an empty shell, Konoha would be unable to govern such a vast ninja world, and there would probably still be divisions and rebellions after the death of the first generation. But once the initial tone of unification was set, Konoha would only need to continue with the remaining strength of the first generation and wait for the next "Senju Hashirama" to appear.
Uchiha Madara recalled the textbook's evaluation of the Shodaime's deeds and narrated it "objectively", with only a little bit of his own personal emotions mixed in, but the general meaning was correct.
"Is this what Konoha's current textbooks say?"
Senju Hashirama showed a look of disbelief. He obviously had not expected such a thing, and his originally relaxed brows gradually frowned.
He was not worried about the negative comments about him in Konoha textbooks, but about the future of Konoha. It was foreseeable that an unprecedented war would break out in the ninja world sooner or later.
"Yes."
"Compared to Hashirama Senju, Uchiha Madara seems to be relatively correct. At least the general direction is correct. The ninja world needs to be unified."
"enough!"
Senju Hashirama shouted.
This Madara Pillar is exactly like Madara, and his ideas are still as dangerous as ever.
Hashirama Senju really couldn't imagine what the scene would become of Konoha under his feet once the war was reignited. Would the villagers still have hopeful smiles on their faces?
“Your thinking needs to change.”
"The order of the ninja world needs to be rebuilt. Never mind. This is a book written by Uchiha Nan. Although there are some flaws that need to be corrected, it should be enough for you. At least it can help you recognize the true and correct path."
Uchiha Madara threw a new version of the Will of Fire to Hashirama Senju.
"Chapter 1: The Meaning of Ninja Existence"
"Why do ninjas have to become tools to carry out the missions issued by the nobles and earn money to live? Can't they live in another way?"
"Chapter 2: The justice and necessity of overthrowing the daimyo and the nobles. Class contradictions are the most important contradictions in the ninja world. Ninjas represent the most advanced productivity in the ninja world."
"Chapter 3: Productive Forces and Production Relations..."
"."
Senju Hashirama quickly flipped through a few pages, and after reading for a while, he felt it was really painful. He knew every word on it, but when he put them together, he couldn't understand it at all. If he had to say something, he could only inexplicably feel that what the other person said made sense, and he felt like an idiot.
"can't read?"
"He is really as stupid as Hashirama Senju. Let me explain it to you."
Uchiha Madara said with disdain. He also spent a long time reading the book. If he didn't understand it the first time, he read it twice. If he didn't understand it the second time, he read it a third time. Ignorance is not terrible. Everyone is ignorant sometimes. But if you know that you are ignorant but are unwilling to learn, then in the end you will only be beaten by the strong.
So profound.
It does make some sense.
My head itches so much, I feel like I’m going to grow a brain!
Hashirama Senju is a standard Warring States ninja, and his ideological realm is two versions behind Uchiha Madara. It is indeed a very difficult thing to ask him to think about problems beyond his identity as a ninja. After all, Hashirama Senju's external brain, Tobirama Senju, is still working in the underground laboratory.
However, Uchiha Madara still tried his best to explain. Who could blame this stupid guy for being so much like his own Hashirama?
Of course, there is also a little bit of selfishness mixed in.
Hashirama, you are fucking wrong!
I was not wrong, at least the general direction was correct!
And now I have found the right path.
Uchiha Nan's stuff is good, but I figured out something better!
"Go away, everyone go away!"
"It's easy to have a traffic accident if we gather like this!"
Uchiha Nan was surrounded by the crowd, shouting, but the loyal children and villagers were not willing to let him go. They raised their hands and cheered Uchiha Nan's name.
"Hokage-sama, please give me your autograph!"
A student from a ninja school brought his new version of the Will of Fire and hoped that Uchiha Nan could sign his name on the book as a souvenir. Uchiha Nan would naturally not refuse this small request. Then Uchiha Nan found that dozens of books appeared in front of him.
Been busy for a long time.
Uchiha Nan finally broke free from the crowd, and the villagers reluctantly dispersed.
"Ok?"
"Where's Senju Hashirama!!"
"How come such a great man like Senju Hashirama is missing?"
Uchiha Nan rarely showed a panic expression. He didn't want Senju Hashirama to be out of his sight and run around Konoha. God knows whether this guy Senju Hashirama will cause some trouble for him.
"Fortunately, I can sense the location of Hashirama Senju."
Uchiha Nan took a deep breath, then exhaled, and calmed himself down. Senju Hashirama was summoned by him through the Impure World Reincarnation. Even if Senju Hashirama ran out of Konoha and wandered around the Ninja World, he could still find him.
"The person is here."
Uchiha Nan sensed Senju Hashirama and quickly located his position, then ran towards him without stopping.
quickly
Uchiha Nan saw the figure of Senju Hashirama.
"That figure next to Senju Hashirama looks so familiar?"
"Who's here?"
"Um?!!"
"Fuck!!!"
