Chapter 451 - Chapter 451 Madara: “Great Ancestor!” Obito: “Ah, My Dear Grandson!”

Madara's wish regarding the "Moon's Eye" was probably to see his brothers.

"Pure Land." His Intangibility happened to be able to disguise people as souls from the Pure Land.

"Brothers." The Great Ancestor's younger brothers, plural!

Put it all together, and it meant one thing.

"If nothing else works, I can let the brothers who are already dead in your memories return from the Pure Land to meet you."

"What?!!"

Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha were stunned!

They understood every word this "Great Ancestor" of the Uchiha Clan said, but once those words were strung together, their minds went blank. They simply could not make sense of it.

Obito Uchiha did not waste time. He directly used his Mangekyō Sharingan and dragged the three brothers Myoko, Togakushi, and Kurohi out of Kamui's Dimension.

The moment the three appeared, Madara Uchiha, Izuna Uchiha, and the Uchiha Clan ninjas behind them could hardly believe their eyes!!

Madara Uchiha leapt in front of the three younger brothers who, in his memory, had long since died during that wartime mission!

"Myoko! Togakushi! Kurohi!"

"Madara-nii-san, Izuna-nii-san."

Because they had already seen the future Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha, the three Uchiha brothers acted very familiar with this Madara and Izuna as well.

Izuna, hearing the voices from his memories, also leapt in front of them.

Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha instinctively reached out to grab them, but their hands closed on nothing.

Watching his hand pass straight through his younger brothers' bodies, even someone like Madara Uchiha, who would casually say things like "mere grains of sand are not even half my equal," could not help pulling his hand back on instinct.

Held by Obito Uchiha, the three teenage ninjas from the Warring States Period were, just like Obito Uchiha, in a state of Intangibility.

Obito said, "They don't have physical bodies right now."

He was telling the truth, but to Madara Uchiha, Izuna Uchiha, the Uchiha behind them, and the Senju across from them, it sounded like these three children were souls summoned back from the Pure Land.

Madara and Izuna's defenses broke in an instant.

Inside Kamui's Dimension, that world's Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha watched their other selves from a parallel world ramble on outside, confessing that they had failed to protect the three of them. The emotions they felt were impossible to describe.

Those words did voice the regrets buried in their hearts, but at the same time, knowing the truth made them unbearably embarrassed. Being successfully pranked by a younger clansman really was...

"Hmph." Madara Uchiha was so angry he laughed. "When we get back, I'm definitely crushing that brat to death!!!"

Izuna took a deep breath and forced himself to stay calm.

Outside Kamui's Dimension, however, Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha truly could not contain their feelings.

If Madara had not still held on to one last shred of reason, he might have even suggested keeping his younger brothers' "souls" in this world.

"That's wonderful, Madara!"

Hashirama, standing nearby, was moved and sincerely happy for Madara.

"Let's call a temporary truce! It's a rare chance to see your brothers again. There must be a lot you want to say to them, right?"

Obito: Uh...

My Intangibility has a time limit, First Hokage!!

"Big brother, do you think souls can just remain in the human world without physical bodies?! Unless you give them bodies as vessels, logically speaking, souls can't stay in the human world for long!"

Well done, Second Hokage!!

Inside Kamui's Dimension, Madara Uchiha glanced unhappily at Tobirama Senju beside Hashirama.

"You're the only one who thinks that much!"

Izuna said, "You worried so much your hair turned white, and you still spend all day overthinking."

"Hey!!" Tobirama Senju snapped. "Mine is natural!!! It is not because my big brother is too stupid and made me worry myself white-haired!!"

The surrounding ninjas: "..."

No matter how Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha in the other space complained, the Madara-Izuna brothers outside Kamui's Dimension believed every word.

They believed that allowing souls who had already returned to the Pure Land to linger in the mortal world for too long would be a desecration of those souls.

Obito saw Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju watching the Great Ancestor's family reunion and felt rather sorry for them. So he simply released Kawarama and Itama from Kamui's Dimension too.

This time, even the Senju Clan across from the Uchiha could no longer stay calm!

"Aren't you the Great Ancestor of the Uchiha Clan?! Why can you even bring the souls of our Senju children back to the mortal world?!"

"Are those really Kawarama and Itama, who died more than ten years ago?!"

The moment the two Senju children spoke, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju broke down as well.

"It's Kawarama and Itama!"

Once Hashirama Senju's stubbornness kicked in, he became completely certain of his two younger brothers' identities.

Just like Madara Uchiha, after confessing, "It's my fault. I didn't protect you properly," Hashirama Senju said, "I want the Senju and Uchiha to form an alliance and end a thousand years of hatred. I want us to build a village together..."

Thinking back to the vow he and Madara Uchiha had made as children, Hashirama Senju, now the Clan Head of the Senju Clan, suddenly choked up a little.

Madara Uchiha was the same. The two of them thought the same thing.

But if we do that...

What will our younger brothers, who were killed by the Senju and the Uchiha, think?

Kawarama Senju said, "In the village, children won't be sent to the battlefield too early. A Ninja Academy will be established to train them, and after they grow up, missions will be assigned according to each person's ability and experience."

"Missions will also be divided into several levels based on difficulty, so the children can be protected as much as possible and grow up safely," Itama continued.

Togakushi Uchiha said, "It's a friendly, peaceful village where children from different Clans can become friends, right?"

Madara and Hashirama's eyes widened, their faces full of utter confusion.

"We saw it."

"Your dream, and that village."

"You wanted to put all your younger brothers in it and protect them."

"No matter how you look at it, that village really is a good place."

"Obito-nii-san even took us to eat lots of tasty food there."

"Hey! Idiot! You can't say that!"

Little Kurohi, who had let something slip, hurriedly covered his mouth in panic.

That made Madara and Izuna think they had leaked some heavenly secret, and they began worrying about their younger brothers' "souls."

Kawarama said, "It's too bad we didn't get to eat the village's most delicious ramen."

"Mm-hmm! Naruto-nii-san highly recommended it!!"

At this rate, even if five minutes were not up, the truth was going to be exposed!!

Young Obito Uchiha quickly coughed twice to cover for them and said that time was almost up, so they should all return to the Pure Land.

"Great Ancestor!"

Madara Uchiha now believed everything Young Obito had said earlier, whether it was Black Zetsu, the correct treatment method for the Uchiha Sharingan, the thousand-year scheme, or the revival of the God Tree.

As for why his younger brothers could see that village and even seemed to have lived there, he automatically explained it away as part of the Pure Land's complexity and mystery.

The moment Madara called him Great Ancestor, Obito instantly floated with pride. "Yes! What is it, my dear grandson?"

"That village..." How is it?

Young Obito said, "Just as you wished, it upholds the Will of Fire and lives on without end."

No matter what setbacks it faces.

Whether that rotten old man attacks Konoha with the Nine-Tails.

Whether it is the First, Second, or Third Shinobi World War.

Whether another version of himself from another world attacks the Nine-Tails and causes Konoha to lose the Fourth Hokage.

Whether it is Orochimaru's Konoha Crush.

Whether it is Pain attacking Konohagakure.

Whether it is the Fourth Shinobi World War.

Whether the God Tree turns everyone into cocoons.

No matter what...

Konoha will always sprout new branches and be reborn!

"It's time. We should go."

Young Obito's original body was pinched by that idiot Kakashi, causing Young Obito's expression after transforming into Six Paths Obito to twist slightly.

But in the eyes of the Senju and Uchiha clansmen at that moment, this Great Ancestor of the Uchiha Clan truly could not hold on any longer.

Before leaving, he wanted to give this world's Izuna Uchiha a little advice. "That guy Madara is terrible at winning people over. Without you, he's like the First... like Hashirama Senju without Tobirama Senju. You should help him find ways to handle the things he isn't good at. Otherwise, once he has no younger brothers left, he'll definitely lose to the First... lose to Hashirama Senju."

Those words left Izuna Uchiha deep in thought.

Only after his younger brothers and that Great Ancestor vanished into the spiraling vortex did he finally come back to himself.

"Madara!"

Hashirama took two steps and stood in front of Madara Uchiha.

"Let's form an alliance!"

"As long as the strongest Clans in the Ninja World, the Uchiha and the Senju, form an alliance and join forces, no nation will be able to find another Clan capable of opposing us!!"

"Let's build a village together, one where we can put our younger brothers and protect them! This age of war will end sooner or later!"

"Come on..."

Hashirama Senju held out his hand.

He hoped Madara Uchiha would place his hand in his, joining the two of them together and reconciling their two clans!!

Young Obito Uchiha and the Uchiha and Senju brothers returned to Kamui's Dimension.

Watching the outside world develop, Madara had not yet had time to crush a certain brat who dared take advantage of him.

He, Izuna, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama all watched the scene outside Kamui's Dimension.

In their memories...

Madara had undoubtedly been moved. He would rather accept his own defeat than fail to save his younger brother, and he trusted Hashirama enough to want to return to the friendship of their youth, when clan names had not mattered.

"Just when my brother was about to take that step, I told him absolutely not to. I told him he couldn't trust the Senju and shouldn't be fooled by them."

"Izuna..."

"I couldn't let go of everyone. I couldn't let go of the fact that Myoko, Togakushi, and Kurohi had been killed by the Senju."

Tobirama Senju listened to Izuna's words, his crimson eyes glancing toward him.

Izuna said, "But maybe, if I had let go of my hatred and trusted the Senju back then, things might have ended differently."

At that same moment, outside Kamui's Dimension, Madara Uchiha was hesitating too.

The Izuna Uchiha outside recalled what his younger brothers had said.

Children would not have to go to the battlefield and fight.

Once they reached the right age, they would enter the Ninja Academy to study.

After graduation, they would take missions according to their individual ability and experience.

They could become friends with children from other Clans.

"Put all our younger brothers inside and protect them properly."

"Izuna?!"

"If a village like that had been built earlier, our younger brothers wouldn't have had to die."

Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, the two brothers who had just seen the "souls" of Itama and Kawarama, also fell silent.

With Izuna's approval, Madara finally reached out and took Hashirama Senju's hand, agreeing to discuss the details of the alliance later.

The moment those words were spoken, the two strategists, Izuna and Tobirama, were already rubbing their hands together and sharpening their blades!

Inside Kamui's Dimension, Hashirama Senju sighed with emotion. "How incredible. That Izuna actually agreed to the alliance?!"

"What do you mean, 'that Izuna'? Do you have a problem with me, Hashirama Senju?!"

"Uh, no, no, no. I wouldn't dare!"

Hashirama Senju hurriedly waved his hands to clear things up.

The four of them, along with the fathers on both sides, had all been resurrected. There was still a long future ahead, and he certainly did not want to offend Madara's younger brother.

"Izuna! Don't worry. Madara and I are brothers, so from now on, you and Tobirama will both be my younger brothers!"

Izuna Uchiha: "What the fuck~! @#¥%."

Can I beat up your brother, Tobirama?

Even your brother can't beat him, so what chance do you have? Haha.
