Ten days have passed since Madara attacked Konoha.
It’s now the beginning of December, almost the end of the year.
The weather is getting colder; but the undercurrent of the entire ninja world is getting more and more agitated...
During this period.
Thanks to Senju Hashirama's powerful [Wood Release] and the infinite chakra of his dirty earth body.
[Konoha]'s post-war reconstruction work went very smoothly.
However, in just a few days, more than 80% of the broken buildings were repaired one by one by [Wood Release].
And those meteorite fragments from [Tianzhi Zhenxing] were also taken down one after another.
Use [Earth Release] to turn into rock blocks, thereby filling in a large number of post-war ravines in the village.
In general.
[Konoha] has recovered very well.
Unlike [Iwagakure Village], even half of the buildings have not been repaired...
Of course, there were many difficulties during the reconstruction period.
The most important thing among them is the lack of money...
Although Hashirama is strong, he can't conjure money out of thin air!
Fortunately.
Taking advantage of his eldest brother's prestigious reputation, Tobirama was not polite at all.
I took the opportunity to make a lot of money from the [Fire Country], [Sunagakure Village], and [Iwagakure Village]!
This barely kept the village functioning.
And major matters such as pensions, burial of martyrs, etc. were gradually settled.
I have to admit that when it comes to handling government affairs.
Senju Tobirama has a very good way.
If it had been Hashirama, Konoha might have collapsed...
All in all, if it weren't for Hashirama's prestige and Tobirama's ability, Konoha as a whole would not be able to survive this catastrophe.
…
"Brother, can you calm down for a while?"
"You are now the backbone of the village! How can you stay in the camp of the evil Uchiha clan from morning to night?"
"What do the other villagers think of you?"
In the Hokage's office, Tobirama frowned and scolded him angrily.
Within these few days.
The eldest brother Hashirama, apart from studying [Eight Doors Dunjia] every day.
The rest of the time, he stayed in the former Uchiha clan's residence, reading through their various books and letters...
Trying to find loopholes in Madara's behavior from clues.
This proves that Madara's ideal is wrong and that he was bewitched...
After all, the Uchiha clan had fled very quickly before.
Most of the clan’s classics, letters, manuscripts, etc.…
They all stayed in the station and were not taken away...
For Hashirama's repeated study.
In short, Hashirama's weird behavior is even more bizarre in the eyes of others.
People who don't know, almost think that he has some special fetish for the Uchiha clan...
Hashirama waved his hand and comforted him carelessly:
"Tobirama, don't worry! I'm measured."
"Brother, you have a sense of propriety!"
Tobirama cursed loudly.
"Don't be so excited! Think about it, if I can really find clues to prove that Madara was wronged, and reconcile with him, it would be a good thing for the village to have one less powerful enemy!"
"Pooh!"
"No matter how much you argue, you can't erase what that bastard Madara did!"
"Brother, don't forget, when he attacked the village ten days ago, he showed no mercy!"
Tobirama shouted loudly.
"I know, I know. But it all depends on people. I can't let him continue to make mistakes! After all, the entire village was built by our two families together..."
Tobirama: "Then what do you think of other villagers? The reconstruction of the village has not been completed yet!"
"You are in control of the village! I feel relieved. Hahaha..."
Hashirama patted Tobirama and smiled heartily.
As inconsistent as ever.
Hearing this, Tobirama covered his forehead in despair and stopped arguing.
Obviously, he has given up on his stubborn eldest brother Hashirama...
…
"Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'll leave first!"
Hashirama smiled happily. Ready to rush to the Uchiha clan's headquarters again.
"etc!"
"Brother, there is one more important thing."
"What's up?"
"According to the information collected by ANBU: including [Grass Ninja Village] [Taki Ninja Village] [Frost Ninja Village] [Snow Ninja Village] and so on..."
"Nearly a dozen small ninja villages are plotting to form an alliance. According to calculations, the secret discussion point for their alliance is set in the [Grass Country]."
Tobirama recounted while flipping through the report.
"An alliance? Are these small ninja villages also preparing to form an alliance?"
"Yes, it is probably because of the frequent battles among our five hidden villages in recent times; coupled with the strong stimulation of the news of the resurrection of our old guys. This made these little ninja villages aware of the crisis. As a last resort, they began to seek Make an alliance."
Tobirama's analysis was good.
It was indeed the turbulent undercurrent in the ninja world that forced these small ninja villages to start looking for ways to protect themselves.
Of course, it's not like Xiao Ninja Village wanted to attach itself to the Five Great Hidden Villages.
However, the previous several ninja wars have proved the selfishness and arrogance of the five hidden villages.
Once the war starts.
Dayin Village will not care about the life and death of Xiaoren Village.
[Rain Ninja Village] and [Grass Ninja Village], which once became the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms, are the best examples...
For this reason, they had no choice but to seek equal alliances in an attempt to further enhance their ability to protect themselves.
"This is a good thing!"
"If everyone can form an alliance, there will be less fighting and there will be more peace in the ninja world. Is there any problem?"
Hashirama, who advocates balanceism, is indeed very inclined to form alliances.
During the Five Kage Talks at the end of the Warring States Period, dividing the tailed beasts was his leading policy.
The reason why Konoha is now willing to sign a peace agreement with [Sunagakure Village] and [Higakure Village] and let go of their grudges is also one of his wishes.
Therefore, he has no objection to these small ninja villages forming alliances with each other.
Anyway, no matter how we form an alliance, we can't unite to create the Great Buddha of Wood Dungeon...
Tobirama also agreed with this.
I don't think that if some small ninja villages come together, they can subvert anything.
But others don’t see it that way…
"This is the letter of credence sent by [Earth Kingdom] and [Wind Kingdom]."
"This one is the imperial order sent by the current daimyo of our [Fire Country]."
"They all expressed their fear of the alliance between these small ninja villages."
"Since the alliance negotiation point is likely to be located in the [Grass Country], it is close to us..."
"So we are asked to send as many people as possible to destroy this alliance!"
Although the Five Great Countries and the Five Great Hidden Villages both wear the same pair of underpants.
But in some respects the differences of opinion are sharp.
In the eyes of several major countries.
The shinobi villages of these small countries actually dared to violate the standards of the shinobi world set by the five major countries and attempted to quietly form an alliance.
This is a serious provocation to the majesty of a great power!
Moreover, if the alliance is successful.
With so many small countries united, it is still a big threat to any big country!
If by any chance a small country gains power, it will shake the foundation of a big country.
The entire structure of the ninja world will be shattered in an instant!
Therefore, those nobles who hold the power of a great country will never allow this to happen!
Even if there is only one chance in ten thousand!
"These big countries seem to be much tougher than they were back then!"
Hashirama frowned and murmured.
When he was the Hokage, the daimyo of the [Fire Country] did not dare to give him any royal orders.
If there is any order, it must be in the form of a request, and you must first seek your own opinion...
It can be seen that as times change, people's memory of fear will only become increasingly blurred.
"Tobirama, what do you think?"
"Although, I don't want to listen to such stupid orders. But at this stage, we still have to behave..."
"After all, the reconstruction of the village will require a large amount of assistance from the [Fire Country]."
Tobirama said helplessly.
If I and my eldest brother were still alive, I wouldn't mind going to Daming Mansion in person to have a good 'negotiation'.
But now they are both filthy and dead.
If we really go to the [Fire Kingdom] again and go on a killing spree, it will only destroy the ethical operation of the entire big country, and the gains outweigh the losses.
It would be better to take over this task casually and send a few people to do it to show off.
This can appease the nobles of the Daming Kingdom and allow them to continue to allocate aid to the village...
