Facing the doubts of the First Hokage. Tsunade and Minato felt utterly helpless. With Konoha now in their hands, it was already riddled with problems.
Minato's world seemed somewhat stable, as the Uchiha clan had not been wiped out. Despite the Sannin falling apart, they were still alive. Minato himself possessed great combat power, making Konoha relatively strong.
However, Tsunade's world was quite different. Only a few powerful individuals remained in Konoha, and their numbers were dwindling. The village lacked notable strong ninjas.
Unknown to Tsunade, her world was on the brink of chaos, with impending threats from within and outside the village. Hidden within the village were formidable assets like Might Guy, Rock Lee, Naruto and Sasuke. In terms of strength, her era was even scarier than any in Konoha's past. However, at present, both Konohas were facing uncertain futures.
{Not a single person considered Guy strong when he said he was stronger than Kakashi in the Chunnin exams. But he was the only person except Hashirama who came close to killing Madara Uchiha. Always remember Madara wasn't killed or defeated by Naruto or Sasuke but betrayed by Black Zetsu.}
Hashirama, observing the two, understood the challenges Konoha would face in the future. He made up his mind that, as long as the Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo came to the chat group, he would request their immediate elimination.
These two were simply too deceitful. Manipulating the world's Strongest ninja village, even then they wasted its potential for personal gains.
But at the moment, Hashirama struggled to find the right words. He turned his gaze towards the light curtain. The screen displayed the events of the first year of Konoha when he shook hands with Uchiha Madara and co-founded the village.
Tobirama had always desired Hashirama to become Hokage When Konoha was first established. With a stronger perception than Hashirama, Tobirama began communicating and discussing Hokage-related matters with him realizing the imminent arrival of Uchiha Madara.
"The stronger their Hate stronger their visual power such a person can't become the Hokage"
Under Tobirama's deliberate actions, Uchiha Madara overheard their conversation and believed that Tobirama would never bring peace between their clans.
Madara subsequently left Konoha. In the second year of Konoha, Hashirama officially became Hokage, and the village began to thrive under his rule.
As Hashirama glanced at the screen's content, he couldn't help but feel startled by what he saw. It was as if he hadn't noticed before, but now everything became clear.
Hashirama looked at Tobirama with a resentful expression. "I had a feeling back then! Madara was truly there!"
Facing the eyes of the First Generation, the Second Generation appeared embarrassed. His plan had been exposed, and the situation was awkward. However, Hashirama knew that the Tobirama before him was not from his own world, but that didn't stop him from voicing his complaints.
Despite reaching this point and after the battle with Madar and Madara's death, they still couldn't lead Konoha to prosperity together.
In the third year of Konoha, after witnessing Konoha's success, other countries began intentionally learning from it. Villages such as the Cloud, Mist, Sand and Rock Shinobi villages were officially established. With the five strongest ninja villages in the five major countries leading the way, the ninja world officially entered the era of the Five Great Ninja Villages from the Sengoku era where Shinobi clans would fight each other.
After four years in Konoha, for the prosperity of the ninja world, Hashirama believed that by distributing the tailed beasts to other villages, the fear of hegemony would subside.
Tobirama couldn't change his mind, but he suggested that the tailed beasts shouldn't be given away so easily—they should be acquired through monetary means.
Five years ago in Konoha, all five major ninja villages obtained their own tailed beasts, thanks to Hashirama's Donations. And Under his leadership, the five major countries signed a peace agreement.
Observing the experiences of the First Generation, Tobirama felt a strong urge to hit his head in regret. He realized he should have been more resolute and kept all the tailed beasts. Where would the war be now?
They could simply throw a tailed beast at anyone who dared to challenge them. Even Minato, despite being new to politics, thought that the First Generation's idealism had gone too far. Believing that averaging everyone's strength would prevent wars was naive.
The root cause of everything, ultimately, was Hashirama's reputation as the god of the ninja world. Strength was the foundation. Without it, the ninja world wouldn't have waited for the death of Senju Hashirama, which triggered the first ninja world war.
Comparatively, the Land of Fire, where Konoha was located, boasted beautiful mountains, clear waters, and abundant resources. In contrast, other countries had their drawbacks.
The Land of Earth, Iwagakure, had inconvenient transportation and was filled with mountains. The Land of Wind, Sunagakure, was an endless desert ravaged by wind and sand.
The Land of Water, Kirigakure, was surrounded by the sea, with sparse and scattered land, leaving most resources underwater. The Land of Lightning, Kumogakure, was located at high altitudes amidst mountains, exposed to wind and sun.
After a long time, this imbalance in resources would naturally cause other countries to set their sights on the Land of Fire. They envied its abundant supplies.
Hashirama fully grasped this reality. Why did the five major countries sign the peace agreement? Was it truly for peace? No, it was because they feared him, the god of the ninja world. If they desired Konoha they have to fight him. In the entire ninja world at that time, no one could match his power.
Reflecting on the experiences of the First Generation, Hashirama's eyes filled with nostalgia as he observed the earth-shattering battle that resulted in the death of his best friend, Uchiha Madara.
The others watched the scene in front of them with shock, and even Ryan couldn't help but be impressed by the incredible strength displayed. This level of power transcended Kage-level and reached the realm of super Kage-level.
This immense strength reminded Ryan of the urgency he felt. After all, the Monsters in the world of the shinobi hadn't yet made an appearance. In the later stages, super Kage-level individuals could only serve as assistants. Only those with Six Paths-level combat power had a chance to participate in the final battle.
"I can only hope that the rewards are given after this ranking will be useful," Ryan thought to himself as the next chapter awaited.
