Inside the Secret Library of Thousand Hands.

The candlelight is bright and dim.

The firelight reflected on the man's face is also somewhat "uncertain".

After Senju Hashirama was silent for a long time, he laughed "ha". However, this laughter was not as bright and hearty as usual, but a little more...

A terrifying anger.

He put down the last family history, picked up the first one, and started reading it again...

The Senju "geniuses" who were hostile to the "geniuses" of the Uchiha family were all the previous ones. With one exception, their entire family died when they were young, and he was the only one left. But starting from a certain one,

The survival rate of "genius" family members has suddenly increased, and the whole family has almost never died again.

Very "interesting", isn't it?

It seems that at first someone was doing a comparative experiment with Senju "geniuses" and Uchiha "geniuses" to see which side would die? The whole family alone can inspire stronger power, and finally came to the conclusion -

—

Uchiha wins.

Maybe it's because of the characteristics of the "Sharingan"...

Therefore, the family members of Senju's "genius" have never been deliberately targeted again.

And when the Uchiha clan is in a weak position, what kind of big crisis will the Senju clan usually encounter; and vice versa.

It's like someone is deliberately maintaining the balance between the two races...

If such a person really exists in the shadow of history, then he is really arrogant, treating people from two or more families as chess pieces, constantly playing with, polishing, and pushing... What do you think in the end?

What ulterior purpose does it want to achieve?

Indra and Asura?

Oh……

But there is no doubt that if there is really a mastermind behind the scenes, then the other party must not have achieved the goal yet. If you want to ask why, then? It is naturally because of Madara...

This generation of "Indra Chakra carriers" still lost everything.

...No, Hitomi-chan, Madara’s lost and recovered relative? Hitomi-chan, the current situation is the most dangerous.

Senju Hashirama was nervous for a moment, and then slowly relaxed, because Madara must also know this very well, he will definitely protect Hitomi-chan, and what’s more, her sudden burst of strength... also

It exceeded the expectations of many people, including him.

The mastermind behind the scenes, you think? It must also be a headache, right?

This person? Or this group of people? I think their own strength is not very good. If not, then there is no need for it.

What kind of conspiracy is going on behind the scenes?

After Senju Hashirama lowered his head and thought for a moment, he left the library, taking with him the family history where the problem had been found - although the family history of the patriarch's family was a treasure and could not be taken out of the secret library easily, but he

It's the clan leader, he has the final say.

And when he returned to his small courtyard, he found that his younger brother Tobirama was there.

"Tobirama?"

"Brother, where did you go after getting off work early today?" Senju Tobirama secretly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his eldest brother - although intellectually, he knew that nothing could happen to him, but emotionally, he knew that nothing could happen to him.

?, he would still be worried. With this thought, he asked one after another, "The replies to you from the Uzumaki clan and other families have just been delivered. What did you write in the letter you sent to them before? And, you

What are you holding in your hand?" The eldest brother's house ninja, he just dispersed, so he can speak freely now.

Senju Hashirama: "..." After being silent for a while, he couldn't help but complain, "Tobirama, you have a lot of questions."

"...Do you want to tell me?" Senju Tobirama was too lazy to argue with him on this point, but there were some things that he had to know. He frowned slightly and said, "Since bidding farewell to Uchiha Madara that day, brother, you

You've been a bit nagging, what are you checking in private? The death of Uchiha Izuna? It's more than that, right? What's the matter?" His eyes became more and more serious, "You can't do anything to my younger brother.

Did you say that? Or did you say that Uchiha Madara was not allowed to say it?"

Senju Hashirama thought: Hey, congratulations, Tobirama, you guessed it right~

Regarding the tailed beast, he really couldn't tell Tobirama for the time being, as he would go crazy. Moreover, he had to continue to delay time for Madara.

However, for other matters, I think Madara will not mind if he borrows his brother Tobirama's wisdom, and after all, this matter has reached this point, and it is no longer a matter between him and Madara.

, is a matter between Senju and Uchiha. And if there is really a conspiracy that spans thousands of years and involves the two races, then the target of the other party is more likely to be——

The entire ninja world.

Think? At this point, Senju Hashirama nodded towards his younger brother: "Tobirama, come in and talk."

Qianju Tobijian raised his eyebrows slightly, and then obediently followed his eldest brother to the study room in his courtyard.

After entering the house.

Senju Hashirama sat behind the desk and first extended his hand to his brother: "Tobirama, give me the letter first. I will tell you after reading it."

Senju Tobirama walked over without saying a word and handed the letter in his hand to the other party.

thousand

After receiving a few replies, Tezuzumi quickly opened them and looked at them. Then, he sighed slightly and murmured: "Is that really the case..."

"What?" Senshou Tobirama sat down cross-legged in front of the plan and made up his mind - today's elder brother will not leave until he makes it clear. Even though they are the two closest people in the world.

It is inevitable that there will be secrets, but he can tolerate his elder brother hiding a little bit about himself, but he cannot tolerate him hiding too much. Are they still close brothers?

Senju Hashirama sat upright: "Tobirama, I don't want a third person to know about today's conversation." So, don't let things like the past happen again - yes, that's what I'm talking about.

The time you deliberately muttered something in my office and let Madara hear it?

Qianju Tojian nodded slightly: "I'm here, don't worry." In terms of sensing this matter, he is confident that he can do better than everyone else.

"You know about the incomplete family history, right?" Senju Hashirama asked bluntly.

"I know." Senju Tobirama asked, "Then what happened? The Senju family was not a big family at the beginning. It might have been just a small family at the beginning, and then it became a group of people. Finally,

It became a small family, and then multiplied and multiplied to become today's Senju. At the very beginning, the people in the clan probably did not have the consciousness to record history. It may not have been until they officially became a family. Therefore, the lack of early content is also

It's normal." He paused and then added, "In addition, the Thousand Hands have encountered many life-and-death battles, and part of their family history has been partially lost during the process. It's also normal."

Senju Hashirama nodded: "Well, I originally thought so too, but if I tell you, not only Senju, Uchiha, Uzumaki and other small families that were once related to the Senju clan,

The family history is also completely incomplete, and all the incomplete parts are the original part, what do you think??"

Senshou Tobirama's expression changed slightly: "Brother, what do you mean..." Someone deliberately did this? No, it's more than that. Since the family history can be left incomplete, it can also be modified.

Even more, but...what's the purpose? If maliciously modifying ninjutsu scrolls can at least harm many ninjas, then what's the use of modifying family history?

"What I'm going to say next," Senju Hashirama took a deep breath, "If it comes out of my mouth and into your ears, it's not suitable for other people to know."

Let alone the secret conversation between the two Senju brothers here.

the other side.

Uchiha Madara also spent some time thoroughly checking various books and scrolls in the secret place, but finally found no clues. In fact, he was not surprised, since that person may have been observing the Uchiha clan, then?

Well, this secret place...maybe not a secret to the other party. Maybe he had sneaked over to check and "clean it up" a long time ago.

But that's the case...

Were they the ones who caught the flaw?

"Brother Ban," the little girl asked while helping to put various books back on the bookshelf, "What should we do next?"

"Waiting for Hashirama's reply." Uchiha Madara replied, "And...I think?, I need to explore my body."

Uchiha men are born with pride, and most of them have severe mysophobia.

Just the slightest thought that there is a part of yourself that belongs to someone else is simply disgusting.

So what if it's the chakra of our ancestors?

After you die, you should stay in the Pure Land honestly and stop playing tricks!

"...That's right." The little girl stopped putting the things in her hand and ran back to the man with some worry. She raised her hand and wanted to touch his body, "Brother Ban, you still have... ah!

"

Her hand was slapped away.

"..." The little girl's eyes widened slightly, she raised her head and stared blankly at the man who seemed to be refusing her approach. After hesitating for a moment, she stretched out her hand again.

This time, Uchiha Madara did not slap her hand away, but took a step back, keeping a certain distance from her, and ordered: "Go and pack up all the books over there."

"...Oh." The little girl slowly put down her hands, pursed her lips, turned around and walked back to continue placing books.

the other side.

"Indra... and Asura..." Senju Tobirama stared blankly at his eldest brother, especially wanting to say "Are you kidding me?", however, the latter's eyes were too serious.

And the expression told him that this must be true.

A conspiracy that lasts for thousands of years...

But compared to this, the first thought that came to his mind was--
To be continued...
