He and his partner, Uchiha Madara, had quelled that era with their utmost strength, and then, based on the so-called concept that everyone could embrace and understand, they established the Ninja Village system, transforming the era of countless family skirmishes into a peaceful coexistence of different villages scattered across the lands.
But after he passed away.
The Ninja Villages immediately went back to waging war against each other.
There was no such thing as tolerance or understanding; the peace that had been maintained for a while was merely due to the absolute repression by Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
Senju Hashirama not only failed to eradicate warfare.
Instead, because he merged numerous families into several villages, he ended up escalating the intensity and expanding the scope of the wars.
From this perspective.
Deterrence is not always effective.
Destroying Europa certainly was a powerful deterrent, but the effect it brought about was mostly short-lived.
