Since Uchiha Makoto had already explained the situation, Minato Namikaze and others were not surprised when they saw the second Hokage Senju Tobirama walking into the lounge.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound.
Tobirama punched Hashirama hard on the head.
Hashirama's head hit the card table directly, and the cards in his hand flew out.
"Who! I'm about to win, why...it's you Tobirama..." Hashirama looked up in confusion, but looked back at his younger brother Tobirama , the whole person's momentum suddenly leaked.
Outside he is the God of Ninja and the founder of Konoha, but at home, he listens to his younger brother Tobirama. Seeing Tobirama's bad expression, Hashirama was already reflexively ready to apologize.
"Brother, didn't you promise me not to gamble anymore?" Tobirama looked at Hashirama with an unkind expression.
Seeing this, Hashirama scratched his head and said with a smile:
"This... is just for entertainment, just like playing a game. It's not considered gambling, right?"
At this time, Tsunade on the side saw this and smiled apologetically: "Yes, second grandfather, grandfather only lost your year's salary, only thirty million taels, it's nothing."
Tsunade was not afraid of her grandfather Hashirama at all, but she was still a little frightened when facing this second grandfather who was usually stern and unsmiling.
"Thirty million taels? Only?!" Tobirama narrowed his eyes.
Looking at Tobirama, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, Hashirama looked at Tsunade in confusion.
You don't know how to tell people to stop talking, do you?
He just said it casually in a moment of excitement.
His only hobby is that he gets easily excited when he is at the gambling table, and he is the type who likes gambling very much. How did he know that Uchiha Makoto had offered them such a high salary before!
Seeing that Tobirama was about to take action again, Uchiha Makoto on the side quickly stepped forward to persuade:
"Second Generation Master, don't be excited. Thirty million taels is not a small amount for Konoha, but for me personally, it is nothing.
If you need it, money is not a problem! "
If Tobirama knew that Uchiha Makoto had helped Tsunade pay off a gambling debt of 100 to 200 million, he would probably explode on the spot.
Seeing Uchiha Makoto come to persuade him, Tobirama glared at Hashirama and Tsunade and said nothing more.
In fact, he doesn't care about money. After all, people are already dead, so what's the use of asking for money?
It's just that he hated Hashirama's bad habit of gambling very much, and even led Tsunade as a child when she was a child.
Moreover, researching ninjutsu and conducting experiments require a lot of money. Although Hashirama was the clan leader in the past, Tobirama is the actual leader of the Senju clan, and he handles all affairs in the clan.
After Hashirama became Hokage, Tobirama handled most of the documents.
Knowing that a large amount of money is needed to run a village, Tobirama has developed a good habit of budgeting carefully.
If Hashirama hadn't liked gambling, he wouldn't have given a big gift to the Daimyo in order to obtain funding from the Fire Country.
"Tobirama, why don't you come and play Landlords? It's very interesting. It also has our images on it. Two shadows like this are the biggest cards!"
Seeing Tobirama's expression return to normal, Hashirama immediately laughed.
"Hmph! I have no interest in such childish games! You go ahead and play!" Tobirama raised his eyebrows and snorted softly.
"Second Grandfather, this 'Fighting Landlords' is not a childish game. It requires a very high IQ to play cards reasonably in order to always win. The rules are very simple. Let me teach you. This is..." Listen When Tobirama said Landlord Fighting was a childish game, Tsunade couldn't help but explain.
"Yes, Tobirama, come and play! We will let you, no money will be gambled from now on!" Hashirama also advised from the side. He did not expect that one day he would be at the same table with his granddaughter and brother. play cards.
"Then just play it once."
Tobirama heard Tsunade say that card games require a high IQ to play, especially since the eldest brother also said that he should do it. I really don't know where the two of them got their confidence.
In order to give the two of them a blow, he decided to try just one game. Anyway, just by glancing at the cards on the table, he could roughly see the order of the cards. As long as he understood the rules and won against Tsunade and Big Brother, wouldn't it be with his right hand?
"Come on, come on! Second grandfather, hurry up and finish it. I'll shuffle the cards!" The smile on Tsunade's face suddenly brightened.
five minutes later--
"Three 4s and a pair of 3s! Sorry, Grandfather, I'm done!" Tsunade said with a smile after playing the last five cards in her hand.
I never thought that someone could lose to her in poker.
"You!" Tobirama's face darkened, then he grabbed Hashirama's hand, glanced at the cards in his hand, and said angrily: "Brother, just now Tsunade sent out four genin, why didn't you show up to counter?! Why didn't you show up? Do you want to take apart Wang Zha?"
Hearing this, Hashirama patted his head, as if suddenly enlightened, "Yes! Why should I take it apart and take it out?!"
Tobirama looked at Hashirama with a look of disgust, and then said to Tsunade: "Tsunade, you and big brother team up, I will be the host!"
At this time, Tobirama had forgotten about just playing.
ten minutes later--
"Sorry, second grandfather, I won again!"
Tsunade wins again, this time Tobirama is the landlord.
"Tobirama, look, it seems that Tsunade is much more powerful than us, she can win even with me!"
There is a fire beside the pillar.
Tobirama gritted his teeth and continued: "One more round!"
In this way, Tobirama, Hashirama, and Tsunade were together, while Namikaze Minato, Uchiha Makoto, and Jiraiya were playing cards at another table.
The six of them seemed to have forgotten their business and played Landlords all afternoon.
The sun was setting outside the window, and the sunset dyed the sky red.
"Brother, how many cards do you have left!" Tobirama looked at the three cards in his hand and felt that he was already winning.
He didn't expect that he didn't win one game all afternoon, and even his eldest brother won two games. It was simply outrageous!
"Seventeen!" Hashirama replied.
When Feijian heard the words, his heart moved and he became stable!
However, the next second, his smiling expression froze.
"airplane!"
"I can't afford it!"
"bomb!"
"I can't afford it!"
"Three belts and one!"
"I can't afford it!"
"I'm done! I won!" Hashirama suddenly laughed.
Tobirama looked at the three 5's in his hand, feeling a little confused.
"Come again!" Tobirama looked like he didn't believe in evil. He was not as good as his elder brother and Tsunade in playing this kind of card game?
"Second Grandfather, I'm going to finish dinner. I still have some things to discuss with Cheng!" Tsunade stood up and shook her head. She didn't expect that Second Grandfather was so addicted to cards.
Uchiha Makoto on the side also stood up and prepared to leave. He also wanted to explain his plan to Namikaze Minato, Tsunade and Jiraiya.
"This... Tobirama, let's stop here today. We can't play together, so we can't call the monkey over, right?" Hashirama said with a smile. It was obvious that his younger brother was worried. He had known it earlier. He should be allowed to.
Hearing this, Tobirama showed a look of reluctance, but in order to maintain his image in front of his disciples, he couldn't ask Sarutobi Hiruzen to play cards.
"How about I let Kurama play with you?" Uchiha Makoto suggested. When we were playing cards just now, Kurama was clamoring to come out to play. However, its card skills are poor and it likes to play badly, so Uchiha Cheng ignored it.
It's just right for the second generation to win, otherwise judging from his appearance, he might not even have the heart to do the experiment.
"Kyuubi? That's fine!" Tobirama nodded.
"Hey, let me play with you and let you know how powerful Konoha's God of Gamblers is!"
Kyuubi transformed into a mini fox and sat across from Tobirama and Hashirama, with a confident expression on his face. Even Tsunade, one of the top three poker players in Konoha, could win for an entire afternoon. It is conceivable that Hashirama and Tobirama's two people's poker skills are so bad.
At least it has been playing for more than a year. If you want to win against Hashirama and Tobirama, it will be easy to win. When the time comes, you can also mock them a few times. It is very cool to think about it!
"For confidentiality reasons, please prevent others from discovering you."
Before leaving, Uchiha Makoto couldn't help but warn him.
"Don't worry, I understand this!" Tobirama nodded.
...
Uchiha Makoto, Namikaze Minato, Jiraiya, and Tsunade came to the luxurious private room of the hot spring hotel.
After the four of them had had enough wine and food, Uchiha Makoto revealed his plan in full.
Among them, Namikaze Minato and Tsunade's reactions were the smallest.
Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Makoto had the idea of bringing peace to the ninja world a long time ago. One of the most practical methods is to unify the ninja world. When all ninjas belong to a unified whole, war will naturally occur. Gone, and peace will follow.
It's just that the idea of unifying the ninja world could be a beautiful wish in the past, but now it is within reach.
With Makoto's strength, he can completely unify the ninja world through violence.
Especially now that the two adults from the previous generation are summoned through the art of reincarnation, even if Cheng doesn't take action, with Konoha's current strength, it will be difficult for all other forces in the entire ninja world to resist them.
Now this method can increase the cohesion of the entire ninja world.
"I have always felt that war can only bring pain and misfortune. Although the ninja world has been in constant turmoil, the era of mutual understanding between people will eventually come.
The children of prophecy are the ones who lead reforms and cause drastic changes.
I used to think that my former disciple Nagato was the son of prophecy, but then I thought it was Minato.
After that, I thought the child of prophecy was you.
But now, I no longer believe in prophecies.
Only this time, I feel that war is the most effective way to peace!
I can't refute you!
Looking back, I really failed!
The idea is so naive! "
Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh, his emotions were a bit complicated.
The peace he pursued has been fundamentally denied by Uchiha Makoto's actions.
We don’t know when the era of mutual understanding between people will come, and the threat from the Tengai Otsutsuki clan will obviously come faster.
It would obviously be bad for the ninja world to continue to be internally divided like this.
When people cannot see hope, it is easy for them to have unrealistic fantasies.
For Jiraiya, even though he once stood at the pinnacle of the ninja world, became a powerful man who shocked the ninja world, and taught disciples like Namikaze Minato, he knew that peace in the ninja world was far away.
Therefore, he can only place his hope in the next generation, believe in the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal, and believe that the era of mutual understanding between people will come one day.
But Uchiha Makoto allowed him to see a solid and reliable future!
Use your own hands to create the future instead of believing in so-called prophecies!
Seeing Jiraiya's uninterested look, Uchiha said sincerely:
"Jiraiya-sama, there is something I haven't had time to tell you yet.
In fact, those who attacked Konoha last year were from an organization called Akatsuki.
And the leader of that organization is actually not Madara, but your former disciple Nagato!
The Akatsuki organization was founded by Yahiko and Nagato.
It’s just that after Yahiko’s death, Nagato went astray!
Now he has promised to cooperate with Konoha and do his part for peace.
You can't be compared with your disciples! "
"What did you say? Nagato? Didn't he already..." Jiraiya looked shocked.
"Yes, he is not dead. After he skillfully used the ability of the Samsara Eye, he killed Hanzo who had betrayed them and controlled the entire Yuyin Village.
So when the Ninja World War breaks out, we can use Amegakure Village as our base camp for secret operations! "Uchiha said sincerely.
"I didn't expect you to have prepared everything. It's really..." Jiraiya no longer knew what words to use to describe it. Since Nagato dared to attack Konoha, he would not do it easily. After being convinced, at least Jiraiya, as his former teacher, did not have this confidence, but Uchiha Makoto did it.
Maybe this is why Uchiha Makoto is so popular with everyone. He has a temperament that people can't help but get close to, giving people a very reliable feeling.
"At that time, as long as you give the order, we will obey the order in all actions, Fifth Generation!"
Tsunade on the side nodded.
Uchiha Makoto was stunned for a moment, "Minato-senpai is still in his prime. He can at least continue to work for a few more years. Are you in such a hurry?"
Namikaze Minato smiled and said: "The high-level meeting the day before yesterday has unanimously approved it. In three months, you will be the fifth generation!"
"???" Uchiha Makoto was confused.
"I want to have a ninja war! Aren't you the most suitable to lead everyone as Hokage?"
Namikaze Minato went on to say that he could finally retire. He now wanted to be a salty fish without dreams like Uchiha Makoto said, and just take care of the children at home. It was time to abdicate and let capable people take over. The position of Hokage.
Uchiha Makoto shook his head and laughed. He was clearly elected to be the Hokage, but he had no idea about it. It was outrageous!
Just as he was about to retort, something suddenly moved in his heart.
Black Zetsu's message has arrived...
The Grayl Stone has been found!
It’s really efficient!
"Makoto, what's wrong?" Seeing Uchiha Cheng lost in thought, Tsunade on the side couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing, I have something to deal with!" Uchiha Makoto smiled.
"Then let's go!"
Uchiha Makoto didn't want to say more, so naturally Tsunade wouldn't ask any more questions.
A group of four people walked out of the hot spring hotel. Uchiha Makoto was preparing to move to a nearby alley when he saw several ninjas from the police force rushing over.
"Yondaime-sama, it's bad! There was an explosion in the lounge next to the Hokage's office!"
Namikaze Minato:?
Uchiha Makoto:? ? ?
