When Senju Tobirama and the others successfully returned to the office, exactly one hour had passed.
Tobirama felt that this one-hour experience was far from perfect.
At the very least, he and Orochimaru didn't exchange more than a few words.
He also didn't get to see his granddaughter forty years later.
Fortunately, the life of the Third Hokage was saved, and Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, was chosen as the Fifth Hokage.
Although it was not perfect, he was generally satisfied with the outcome.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Senju Tobirama had similar feelings.
A mere hour was not enough for him to thoroughly explore Konoha. Additionally, there were external enemies to contend with, so he only managed to see a very small part of Konoha.
It had to be said that the residents of Konoha lived very well forty years later. The skin of those ladies was really fair, providing a feast for his eyes.
Nothing could be discerned from Shimura Danzo's expressionless face about what he was thinking.
No one knew where this guy went after he parted ways, and he wasn't even seen during the battle on the rooftop.
There was a vague sense that he seemed a little dissatisfied.
Speaking of dissatisfaction, Uchiha Kagami was the most discontented among the four, and even the most angry.
The Uchiha clan was gone, just like that.
This happened even though the villagers supported him. How could he not be angry?
If it weren't for Senju Tobirama and Jiraiya stopping him, he would have definitely given the Third Hokage a good beating.
"Kagami, don't let anger erode your heart. The Uchiha clan still needs you."
Tobirama was indeed the person who understood the Uchiha clan best. He calmed Kagami down with just one sentence.
"Tobirama-sensei is right."
From the few words of the Third Hokage, Kagami knew that he probably died very early in the other timeline.
After his death, the clan lost its anchor, and the Third Hokage did not learn the essence of village management from Tobirama Sensei.
This led to more and more people in the clan becoming dissatisfied with the village, eventually resulting in the clan being destroyed by the village.
It's different here.
Tobirama-sensei is not dead, and he himself is not dead either.
The idiot Third Hokage cannot take the position, and the clan here also has its own existence, so the Uchiha clan will definitely not suffer the same fate as over there and face genocide.
To avoid following the same old path, he might have to be tougher when dealing with some radicals in the clan.
With the Mangekyō Sharingan, he is now the strongest in the clan.
If anyone dares to attack, he will kill them immediately.
"Teacher, you are back!"
Utatane Koharu, and the other two, who were outside the door, heard the voices in the office and quickly opened the door.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"It's just guarding the door. It's not hard at all."
The three of them entered the office, and Akimichi Torifu noticed that the atmosphere seemed a little off.
However, he did not ask any more questions but stood quietly by the side, not even taking out his potato chips to eat.
"Okay, go do whatever you need to do. I have to take care of official business."
"Yes, teacher."
"Okay, teacher. We'll leave now."
Five of the six disciples left, leaving only Uchiha Kagami.
"Kagami, do you have anything else to say?"
"Yes, teacher. After I awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, I gained two exclusive eye techniques."
Hearing this, Tobirama waved his hand to stop Kagami from continuing.
"Kagami, this is your exclusive pupil technique. If you tell me, it won't be good, okay?"
Tobirama indeed thought so.
If he really wanted to know what Kagami's Mangekyō Eye Technique was, he would not have let him leave but asked directly.
Even husband and wife have their own privacy, let alone master and disciple.
Kagami was honest with him, and Tobirama was very satisfied with this attitude, but there was really no need to tell him about powerful ninjutsu like secret techniques and bloodline limit.
Kagami understood what Tobirama meant, but he also had his own ideas.
He knew the meaning of the members of the three "Yamanaka, Akimichi and Nara" clans, as well as himself and Hiruzen being sent as bodyguards.
With the help of Mugen Kōsō's eye technique, he would definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"Teacher, the Mangekyō pupil technique that awakened in my left eye is called Mugen Kōsō, which can change a person's will and feelings. It can make men become my good friends and make women fall in love with me."
"Is that so? What do you think?"
"I was thinking whether I should use it on the daimyo in a month. This way, I will become a good friend of the daimyo, and it will be of great help to your plan, Sensei."
Tobirama was silent for a long time.
The method Kagami mentioned was indeed very tempting to him.
With the full cooperation of the daimyo, members of the three "Yamanaka, Akimichi and Nara" clans could learn faster and save a lot of time.
But in the end, he shook his head and rejected Kagami's idea.
First of all, Mangekyō's pupil technique is not infallible.
The ninja world is vast, and there are many powerful people. Someone might notice at any time that the daimyo's will has been altered.
Besides, a politician like daimyo doesn't have any close friends.
The reason he treats you as a friend is simply because his interests have not been infringed upon. Once his interests are harmed, such a person will betray you in an instant.
Friend?
Isn't it just for betrayal?
This is also the disadvantage of Mugen Kōsō's eye technique.
Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, weren't they good friends?
But for the sake of the village and their ideals, didn't the two of them end up fighting a life-and-death battle?
Mugen Kōsō's eye technique is very powerful, but not so powerful that it is unstoppable.
Secondly, Senju Tobirama has a good relationship with the daimyo. After all, Tsunade calls him grandpa, and they are relatives.
Tobirama couldn't bring himself to use such despicable means to deal with his in-laws.
"Kagami, the power of the Mangekyō is very strong, but you must understand one thing. You must control this power, not become its slave."
Tobirama could see that something was wrong with Kagami's current condition.
The previous Kagami would not use the method of controlling others to achieve his own goals.
It is conceivable how much of a shock the annihilation of the Uchiha clan was to him.
"I understand, teacher."
Time passed quickly and it was afternoon in the blink of an eye.
Senju Tobirama finally met the young boy Orochimaru he had been thinking about in the office.
"Greetings, Second Hokage."
When he was young, Orochimaru was still very polite. He bowed and greeted Tobirama when he saw him.
"Hello, Orochimaru. Here, this is a greeting gift for you."
As he spoke, Tobirama took out a scroll from the drawer and handed it to Orochimaru.
Orochimaru looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Please accept it. This is a token of the Hokage's kindness."
After hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, Orochimaru accepted the gift.
Seeing that Orochimaru had no intention of opening the scroll on the spot, Hiruzen turned to Tobirama and asked, "Teacher, what did you give Orochimaru?"
"Want to know? Open it and see for yourself."
"That's not good."
"Oh, I don't know you yet?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled and said to Orochimaru, "Why don't you open it and take a look to satisfy your teacher's curiosity?"
Orochimaru nodded obediently and opened the scroll in his hand.
Looking at what was written on the scroll, Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen both widened their eyes.
"This is..."
"Don't make such a fuss, it's just some experimental data for ninjutsu."
That's right, the gift that Tobirama gave to Orochimaru was just some data he used when creating ninjutsu, especially forbidden techniques.
"Thank you for the gift, Hokage-sama. I like it very much."
Orochimaru, who already had a goal in life, was very happy. He hugged the scroll tightly as if he had found a treasure, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it from him.
This gesture made Tobirama very satisfied.
