Chapter 36

Truth or Falsehood

"Click~"

After the illusion space shattered, the three of them emerged from it.

However, the three people who were originally curious and puzzled now looked rather gloomy.

Even the usually jovial Hashirama Senju stopped smiling at this moment, his brows furrowed, his expression serious, and his arms crossed over his chest.

The Strongest Hokage?

Lead Konoha into an era of prosperity?

Wisdom comparable to that of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju?

Damn it, what was that kid saying yesterday?

And what were they just looking at?

Immediately, all three of them stared at the stone stream opposite them with hostile expressions.

Tobirama Senju's face darkened even more last night, when he eagerly and impatiently accepted Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura as his disciples.

Do you know what expression Madara Uchiha had when he heard that inherently evil maniac laughing wildly in the illusion space, laughing until tears were almost falling?

If he hadn't comforted himself with the thought that things might change, that Hiruzen might have some kind of plan, and that they weren't yet clear about the future and might not be able to understand the schemes behind it... he would have been so angry that he almost blew up that crude illusion space.

Then, he got into a fight with Madara Uchiha, who was laughing extremely arrogantly next to him!

The results of it?

That's it?

He couldn't see any of the details about the strongest Hokage, the advanced four-person Konoha system, the ninjutsu professor, or the powerful ninja hero.

Of course, in the end, the inherently evil Madara Uchiha couldn't laugh anymore, but he almost laughed!

The Uchiha clan is gone!

He was still killed by his own people!

It has to be said that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, did have some foresight. That kid... really has the mindset of a Hokage, actually doing what he wanted to do but couldn't when he was Hokage.

That scene really gave him a thrill!

Of course, what's more important now is... to settle accounts with that brat who was spouting nonsense on the other side last night.

The three men, arms crossed, glared at Shi Jian with hostility. "Kid (Shi Jian), shouldn't you explain yourself now?"

"Let me catch my breath?" Despite the unfriendly expressions of the three men, Shi Jian was not afraid at all. They couldn't hit him anyway, and as for illusion magic... he didn't believe that the three men could kill him. At most, they would just make him lose face.

Just now, I used illusion magic on the three big shots. Even though it was just a crude stick figure drawing and the plot was edited, it roughly depicted the things that Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura did.

Moreover, the story only goes up to the point of the Uchiha clan massacre, but for a child like him, it was still somewhat overwhelming.

Shi Jian took a deep breath, raised his head, looked at the three people in front of him who were still staring at him with unfriendly eyes, gave an awkward smile, and said cautiously, "Last night... would you believe me if I said I was joking?"

"!!!"

However, in response to his words, the three of them remained silent, without even changing their expressions, still looking at him with the same eyes.

"Actually, what I said wasn't wrong." Shi Jian sighed and spread his hands. "That was indeed the official evaluation of the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo in our world."

"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju could no longer hold back. Even the usually well-mannered Tobirama cursed, "What kind of world is this? This guy can be called the strongest Hokage? The professor of ninjutsu? He's even stronger than me? Stronger than a damn thing!"

"Hey, that's just the official assessment, but there are indeed quite a few conspiracy theories circulating online."

"network?"

"It's a place where people from all over the world can get together and chat."

"The ability to connect everyone in the world?"

Upon hearing Shi Jian's explanation, the three were shocked once again, seemingly never expecting that such an ability would exist in a world without chakra.

But the three of them quickly regained their composure. Tobirama Senju glanced at Ishigami, whose face was somewhat pale, and complained irritably, "You still need to work on your training! And that genjutsu space was so poorly made. If it weren't for that matchstick-sized person wearing a triangular hat with the word 'Kage' written on it, we wouldn't have recognized him as the Third Hokage. Now..."

With a serious expression, he said, "Tell me what happened!"

"What happened?" Although Tobirama Senju didn't say it explicitly, Ishigami understood what he meant. He spread his hands and said helplessly, "I don't know either! Some people over there say the Third Hokage was incompetent, and some say he was confused. As for why that's the case, I don't know either."

"Foolish? Hmph!" At this moment, Madara Uchiha, who had been wearing a sour face, sneered, "How laughable! The Uchiha clan was wiped out while he was dragging his feet. Call him foolish? I think this kind of person is the most cunning. It must have been some despicable villain who taught him. Sure enough, my judgment was right. If this guy becomes Hokage, the Uchiha clan will definitely be wiped out!"

"Hmph, Madara Uchiha, who was born evil, I was already dead back then." Tobirama Senju showed no mercy in the face of Madara Uchiha's slander.

Although he was indeed very happy at the time, it's important to remember that the Uchiha clan wasn't wiped out while he was alive!

Judging from the illusion space just now, he even seemed to have taken in members of the Uchiha clan as his disciples.

"With brains like yours, it's no wonder you Uchiha were wiped out. Besides, the Uchiha clan wanted to start a rebellion, so you only have yourself to blame!"

"Rebellion? The Uchiha clan has been clamoring about a rebellion for years, all they've done is shout, and they've made the whole village aware of it. Has there been any real rebellion? I think it's just an expression of dissatisfaction with the injustices in Konoha!" Uchiha Madara, who had also watched the plot, retorted again, this time with a sarcastic tone. "Look what your two disciples did! Uchiha Shisui wanted to stop the rebellion, and what happened? Your two inherently despicable scoundrels, just like you, didn't give them a chance. They even threatened the Uchiha clan to wipe out their own clan! And what happened afterward? They acted on their own without the Hokage's knowledge, while that stinking rat was just suspended and sent home to sleep?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju was at a loss for words this time.

Thinking back on what he had just witnessed, he was also cursing under his breath. Leaving aside the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, what about the others?

The Nine-Tails' rampage not only prevented the Uchiha from rescuing them, but he also failed to go to their aid. And what were the consequences?

fine!

He assassinated the Hokage and still got away with it!

Conducting forbidden research in secret, and nothing happens!

Making enemies everywhere is perfectly fine!

They can secretly threaten welfare homes and subject orphans to inhumane training, and nothing will happen to them!

They secretly massacred the Uchiha clan without the Hokage's knowledge, and nothing happened to them!

Disobeying the Hokage's orders, and nothing happened!

Did Danzo Nashimura save Hiruzen Sarutobi's life, or did he save Sasuke Sarutobi's life?

He did so much, yet there was absolutely no punishment; he was just suspended and sent home to sleep.

There's a saying that Madara Uchiha, who was born evil, wasn't wrong. From the scene just now, he could tell that the Uchiha clan didn't seem to really want to start a rebellion at first.

The fact that Fugaku Uchiha named his youngest son Sasuke, and that Shisui Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha joined the Anbu and the so-called Root organization, shows this.

The results of it?

Ultimately, it gradually marched towards its demise.

He didn't sympathize with the Uchiha clan; in fact, he almost laughed out loud when he saw the Uchiha clan's annihilation.

It's not the things these two people did that are the problem!

Adding to what that brat Shijian said last night, for a moment... he felt like punching him!
