After hearing this, Tsunade fell silent.
Beside her, the First Hokage Hashirama and the Second Hokage Tobirama also snapped out of their shock.
But at this moment, the Second Hokage's face was filled with bitterness.
Who could have imagined that the person he personally selected would later slaughter the Senju Clan?
How did I end up choosing two such disciples?
He could still understand their actions against the Uchiha Clan. After all, the evil power of the Sharingan made it reasonable to be wary of such a force.
But after these two succeeded him, they actually dared to use his teachings to turn around and annihilate the Senju Clan!
He had to act quickly to avoid alerting them.
Once he returned, he absolutely could not let these two scoundrels set foot on the Ninja World's stage again!
He might as well just kill them both!
Thinking this, a flash of killing intent passed through the Second Hokage Tobirama's eyes.
That's right, in his world, none of this had happened yet.
As long as he killed these two bastards, it would be enough!
It was then that the Second Hokage Tobirama realized.
"So that's it! This is the true purpose of the chat group!"
"We can completely change history!"
Tobirama's words seemed to open a door to a new world for the other two Hokage.
After a moment of silence, they both voiced their thoughts.
Hearing the Second Hokage's deduction, Hashirama and Tsunade beside him couldn't help but exchange a glance, their shock deepening.
Even Aoki couldn't help but admire this intuition. It was truly remarkable.
As expected of the Second Hokage. He had already figured it out before Aoki even pointed it out.
Seeing the Second Hokage's sudden change in demeanor, Aoki quickly spoke up to interrupt: "Ahem, before we discuss that, I need to clarify one thing first."
"What time period are each of you in right now?"
Hearing this, the Second Hokage Tobirama, who had been excited about potentially changing the fate of the Senju Clan, couldn't help but suppress the smile on his face.
He then answered: "Right now, it's Konoha Year 17. The First Great Ninja War is about to end."
"In one month, I am going to sign an alliance treaty with the Raikage!"
"By then, this war will finally be over."
Saying this, the Second Hokage Tobirama let out a sigh of relief.
After all, no one liked war. Now that the war was nearing its end, the Second Hokage did feel considerably more at ease.
As soon as the Second Hokage finished speaking, the First Hokage Hashirama beside him patted his shoulder approvingly.
But the expressions of Aoki and Tsunade beside them turned very strange.
Seeing their expressions, the Second Hokage, who had been somewhat relaxed, immediately tensed up.
He cautiously asked them: "Is something bad about to happen?"
Seeing this, Hashirama also looked at the two with concern.
Aoki had no choice but to speak up: "Well, how should I put this."
"At the alliance meeting one month from now, Kumogakure's Gold and Silver Brothers will lead a rebellion, assassinate the Second Raikage, and tear up the alliance treaty!"
"In order to cover the retreat of Konoha's new Hokage, you chose to stay behind and hold the line."
"You sacrificed yourself in this battle, and your death marked the end of the First Great Ninja War."
I actually died on the eve of the Great Ninja War's conclusion!
If Tobirama hadn't known about the future actions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, he might have been able to accept this outcome.
But now, he had died saving these traitors.
This was something the Second Hokage could never accept.
No wonder the Senju Clan would fall—it was because he was about to die.
That was why Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo Shimura became so brazen after returning.
No, he absolutely couldn't let this happen!
For a moment, the Second Hokage sat in his seat, his eyes flickering with an uncertain light. No one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Hashirama quickly asked, "I'm currently in the tenth year of Konoha. Nothing bad should happen, right?"
Hashirama was also very curious about the fate he was about to face and was eager to know what would happen next.
Seeing Hashirama's curious expression, Aoki couldn't help but say, "Well, nothing major, but you only have two years left."
"Although everyone knows you died in the twelfth year of Konoha, no one knows the exact cause of your death!"
Learning that he only had two years left to live, Hashirama showed no regret at all. Instead, he laughed heartily.
"Two more years, hahaha!"
"But being able to hold on for two more years is already pretty good."
At this point, Hashirama had nothing left to hide.
He spoke about his physical condition: ever since his great battle with Madara Uchiha, for some reason, his body seemed to have reached its limit. His injuries kept worsening, and his body grew weaker day by day.
Hearing this, Aoki and the other two reacted in the same way.
There had always been various theories about the cause of Hashirama's death, but most speculations were related to the battle at the Valley of the End.
Now, it seemed the answer was indeed that.
With the situations of the First and Second Hokages explained, everyone's gaze turned to Tsunade.
Tsunade quickly composed herself and said, "The time I'm in is the sixty-third year of Konoha. Jiraiya... the strongest in the village has just died in battle."
"There's an organization called Akatsuki that's capturing Tailed Beasts everywhere. Now, only Kumogakure's Eight-Tails and Konoha's Nine-Tails are left."
"Soon, that guy named Pain will attack Konoha!"
Tsunade quickly gave a brief overview of Konoha's current situation.
After hearing Tsunade's words, the First and Second Hokages finally understood why Tsunade had been so anxious at the beginning.
They never expected that such a crazy organization dedicated to collecting Tailed Beasts would appear in the future Ninja World.
But now, since everyone had been gathered in this Hokage Chat Group, there was no reason to doubt it.
"Don't worry, Tsuna."
"Since we can appear here,"
"It means there's still a chance to turn things around!"
"Right, Fourth Hokage!"
Just as Tsunade was feeling anxious, the First Hokage smiled and ruffled her hair, then turned to look at Aoki, his eyes filled with warmth.
Facing the First Hokage's gaze, Aoki couldn't help but feel admiration.
Truly worthy of being the First Hokage—seemingly carefree on the surface, but actually insightful and understanding.
He saw things clearly and immediately pointed out the purpose of the chat group.
Aoki smiled and replied, "Of course!"
"Since we've been gathered together by the Hokage Chat Group, we should unite as one and help each other!"
"As for your problem, Tsunade, it will be resolved at the next group meeting in three months. Once the fifth group member joins and the mutual assistance function is unlocked, it'll be fine!"
"But right now, the most important person is you, Second Hokage."
As Aoki finished speaking, everyone's gaze once again focused on Second Hokage Tobirama.
"Hmm?"
