Tsunade rubbed her temples and voiced her doubts directly.
Clearly.
This was why, when the Senju Clan was wiped out back then, Tsunade had been able to remain rational despite her anger.
Because she knew that the branch of the Senju Clan that was destroyed was only the one in Konoha!
In response.
Senju Tobirama snorted coldly upon hearing this: "Tsunade, you're being foolish!"
"Huh?" Tsunade was taken aback.
Looking at the bewildered Tsunade, Senju Tobirama couldn't help but slam the table.
"Tsunade!"
"You are, after all, a member of the Village's absolute High Command now. Have you still not figured out Uchiha Jin's intentions?"
"Even though I've only been back through Edo Tensei for a few days, through my investigation of the Village during this time, I've realized that Uchiha Jin is preparing to move against the Hokage."
"When the nest is overturned, can any eggs remain unbroken?"
"I have no doubt whether Uchiha Jin can succeed. In my view, the Daimyo and the Nobles will sooner or later become history."
"They are doomed; no one can save them!"
"On one hand, I truly want to rebuild the Senju Clan, but on the other, I want to save these clansmen."
"Otherwise, once Uchiha Jin makes his move, these Nobles will definitely be eliminated!"
Senju Tobirama's tone was solemn.
He sometimes wondered what his grandniece did every day. Even if she couldn't be part of Uchiha Jin's absolute core, as a member of the absolute High Command, how could she not even think of this?
On the other side.
Hearing this, Tsunade slapped her forehead and spoke with a look of realization: "Oh, that. Uchiha Jin did mention it."
"Second Granduncle, you're truly amazing. To think you could figure out Uchiha Jin's thoughts just by guessing and reasoning."
"He is indeed preparing to move against the Daimyo and the Nobles, but he doesn't have the time at this stage. And because the Village has been so busy lately, I didn't think of it for a moment."
"But, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Even if Uchiha Jin really makes his move, I can still save the lives of these people!"
"Letting them continue to live as ordinary people seems like a good thing to me. After all, being a Ninja isn't a good profession."
Yes.
Although Uchiha Jin had mentioned it once, she had truly forgotten about it.
More importantly, she really wasn't interested in the matter.
Because she knew that with her power, it wouldn't be difficult to protect these people from Uchiha Jin.
In response.
Hearing this, Senju Tobirama froze on the spot and then said in a very sharp voice: "What? You knew?"
"Yeah, I knew!" Tsunade nodded, looking completely bewildered.
Hearing this, Senju Tobirama couldn't help but slap his forehead.
He knew he was wrong!
That brat Uchiha Jin wasn't as despicable as he thought; he had actually informed Tsunade about this long ago.
It was purely Tsunade being stupid, which had nothing to do with the Uchiha.
"I..."
Senju Tobirama looked up at the sky, speechless.
Tsunade was a bit confused but couldn't help asking: "Second Granduncle, did I do something wrong?"
Looking at his bewildered grandniece, Senju Tobirama couldn't help but sigh.
Then.
After shaking his head helplessly, he began to explain slowly.
"First, point one."
"Even if Uchiha Jin trusts you, you won't be able to save these clansmen."
"It's not about your personal relationship with Uchiha Jin, but that this precedent absolutely cannot be set. Even if I were in Uchiha Jin's position, I would kill these people without hesitation."
"Even if—they are Senju!"
"Otherwise, if these Nobles can be spared because they have a personal relationship with you, Tsunade, what about the Nobles who have ties with other Ninja Clans?"
"If everyone comes to plead for mercy, what will Uchiha Jin do?"
"To deal with them? Or not?"
"If everyone is given a pass and a large number of the original Nobles survive, there will be pressure on future governance and stability. What if these people are unwilling to lose their power and continue to cause trouble after the dust settles?"
"It won't work to not give a pass either. After all, if you, Tsunade, can protect a group of people, why can't other Ninja Clans?"
"You can't have double standards, and you can't set this precedent, or it will make things very difficult for Uchiha Jin!"
"Secondly, your vision is too narrow!"
"As Uchiha Jin takes action and the Lord of the Land of Fire and the Nobles are finished, the Daimyos of other nations will definitely be furious and will surely have all the Hidden Villages attack Konoha."
"Once Konoha withholds the first wave of attacks, some Hidden Villages will definitely not be able to hold back, such as the Hidden Sand Village, which has its financial allocations docked year-round."
"If the Hidden Sand Village moves against its own Daimyo and Nobles, will the other Hidden Villages be able to hold out?"
"And once all the Daimyos and Nobles in the Ninja World are dead, the next stage will surely be the Ninja Era."
"Even thinking with your toes, the Ninjas of the Ninja Era will definitely be superior to others."
"And these Senju clansmen, who are just ordinary people—even if you, Tsunade, can let them live or even protect them for a lifetime..."
"But you will also grow old. What happens after you die?"
"A group of Senju clansmen who are just Civilians will naturally be unable to enter the core high command, and what awaits them will be a slow death."
"So, do you understand now?"
Senju Tobirama explained everything in detail.
As the Second Hokage of Konoha, his way of thinking was quite sophisticated. Even though he wasn't currently part of the Konoha High Command and couldn't access many core secrets, he could still keenly perceive many things and even guess what the future landscape of the Ninja World would look like after Uchiha Jin's success.
Therefore.
This was the reason why he was in a hurry to rebuild the Senju Clan and immediately head to the Daimyos Mansion in the Land of Fire!
On the other side.
Hearing these words from her Second Granduncle, Tsunade was instantly stunned.
Clearly.
She really hadn't thought that much. Now, after listening to Senju Tobirama's words, she couldn't help but feel very emotional.
The older, the wiser!
Thinking of this, a bitter expression appeared on her face.
"Second Granduncle, you are right!"
"I indeed hadn't thought that much before. Your move this time was correct!"
"However, there is one point you guessed wrong."
"Uchiha Jin's idea is a bit different from your conjecture."
"He isn't planning to just kill the Lord of the Land of Fire and its Nobles, but is preparing to kill all the Daimyos and Nobles of the Five Great Nations at the same time."
"Even those small nations—if he has the strength, Uchiha Jin plans to do it all at once!"
Tsunade sighed and didn't hide anything.
She directly spoke Uchiha Jin's words from back then, and hearing this, Senju Tobirama felt his mind explode.
Holy crap!
Why didn't I think of that?
If something happens to the Daimyo and Nobles of the Land of Fire, it might cause intense opposition from other Hidden Villages.
But if something happens to all Five Great Nations at the same time, who the hell would know it was Konoha's doing!"
