While Fukasaku and Jiraiya were arguing, Minato walked over and spoke seriously: "Head Fukasaku, if possible, I would also like to join the Sage Mode training."
After being beaten up by Kazuki, Namikaze Minato discovered a heavy fact. Even if Kazuki did not enter a strange rampage state, he, the first genius of Konoha, seemed unable to defeat his junior.
And if Kazuki went berserk, it would not be a matter of victory, but of thinking about how to survive...
The situation where Kazuki's strength went berserk and out of control reminded Namikaze Minato of his lover-Kushina.
Soon, there will be a monster in Kushina's body that is much more terrifying than Kazuki, the strongest tailed beast Nine-tailed!
If Kushina went berserk, Minato would never want to be like today, helplessly watching...
"Minato, if you have this heart, Mount Myoboku certainly welcomes you..."
Shima laughed. "However, practicing Sage Mode is very difficult. Little Jiraiya has tried many times, but he has only achieved the basic level. Are you sure you can endure it?"
Minato seemed to have found that little sun-like smile again. "Don't worry, Great Toad Sages. I will train diligently alongside Jiraiya-sensei."
The tension in the atmosphere was beginning to dissipate, but Orochimaru's thoughts were going in a completely different direction, immersed in deep reflections, like waves in a storm.
Kazuki had lost control, but suddenly he had used the Flying Thunder God Technique and released a chakra similar to that of the Senju clan.
Orochimaru had clearly sensed how Kazuki's ocular power had changed and then began to steadily increase during the battle.
And the Adamantine Sealing Chains... Orochimaru didn't believe that the Uzumaki and Uchiha bloodlines could mix so easily.
This could not be explained as just a crossing of bloodlines. To Orochimaru, Kazuki's abilities seemed carefully organized, as if they had been artificially designed.
Being a previously favored disciple of Hiruzen, Orochimaru had had access to many of Konoha's resources, including those ninjutsu of the Scroll of Seals, as well as rare manuscripts such as Tobirama's research journals, incomplete techniques, and notes filled with inspiration.
Sarutobi Hiruzen once thought that Orochimaru was somewhat similar to his sensei, so he did not care about him reading Senju Tobirama's scientific research heritage, and even took the initiative to open up permissions for him.
These things left by Senju Tobirama left a deep impression on the young Orochimaru at that time, so that in his heart, he had a particularly high respect for this genius Second Hokage.
Compared to Orochimaru's simple human experiments of Wood Release, Tobirama, who had survived the Sengoku Period, truly had no limits. As Hokage, he could research whatever he wanted, without restrictions. He even researched souls, chakra, and... his own brother or Uchiha Madara.
Compared with Senju Tobirama back then, the current Orochimaru can be regarded as a moral role model with a full bottom line...
"Amazing! I expected nothing less from the Second Hokage!" Orochimaru seemed to have figured it out and laughed excitedly. "The fusion and capture of soul and chakra, this proposition was finally successfully studied by you?"
"Your thinking was truly unparalleled... Fusing the chakra of the Senju and the Uzumaki to control the power of the Uchiha, transforming Kazuki's mind and consciousness with a seal, making it tailor-made for Konoha... and yourself."
"Uchiha Kazuki's water release talent, perfect fire will... I thought Uchiha Kazuki pretended to be like this in order to infiltrate the village's upper echelons. But now I understand! This is your doing, Second Hokage!"
Orochimaru couldn't help but be shocked by the wisdom and ruthlessness of Senju Tobirama.
Senju Tobirama suppressed the Uchiha clan from the outside during his lifetime, and after his death, he had to find a way to discipline the Uchiha clan from the inside...
Tobirama seemed like an insurmountable barrier to the Uchiha, whether in life or death.
Orochimaru cast a pitiful glance at Jiraiya, who had regained his confidence and was chattering happily about things like information is crucial. Orochimaru simply smiled and shook his head.
"Information, Jiraiya? With your intellect, you would never be able to obtain the important information."
With greed in his eyes, Orochimaru looked in the direction Kazuki left and said softly: "Tobirama-sama, you can only make plans based on the information you had before you died, and you cannot obtain the pattern and changes after your death..."
At that moment, Orochimaru, who had overcome his youthful idolatry, took a step forward. He had evolved.
Now, Orochimaru, who had the complete information, would fight Tobirama for Kazuki's perfect body.
....
Tsunade, carrying Kazuki in her arms, had arrived at the Hokage Residence, and quickly entered.
"Grandma Mito, please take a look at Kazuki!" Tsunade pushed open the door of the Hokage's office and said anxiously.
At this moment, Uzumaki Mito sat on the main seat, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat next to him, and there was a familiar crystal ball on the table.
"Don't be anxious, Tsunade..."
Uzumaki Mito waved her hand, indicating that she should put Kazuki on the Hokage's desk.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at this scene with hesitation.
Since he became the Hokage, this table can only be patted by him and Shimura Danzo, and no one has ever lain on it...
Uzumaki Mito put his hand on Kazuki's head, sensing the chakra of Senju Tobirama flowing in his body, and laughed.
At this moment, although Kazuki was unconscious, Senju Tobirama was still protecting Kazuki very well, using his chakra to heal Kazuki slowly, while guarding against Uchiha Izuna's resurgence.
"Kazuki will be fine, he's just exhausted. His body can't handle that much power..." Uzumaki Mito glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen. "Go get a quilt, this child needs to rest."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned, is he really going to sleep on his desk?
He didn't care so much, but Uzumaki Mito's good impression of Kazuki made Sarutobi Hiruzen very curious, why?
Sarutobi Hiruzen entered the inner room in person, pulled out the quilt from his living room and gently covered Kazuki.
Tsunade stared at this scene in a daze.
She had the feeling that her grandmother seemed to have known about Kazuki's abnormal state for a long time...
"Little Tsuna, Hiruzen..."
Uzumaki Mito motioned the two to sit down, his face became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "For the next thing, you must remember to keep it absolutely confidential!"
"Hiruzen, as Hokage, you have the right to know all of Konoha's secrets, and besides, your son Asuma has a bond with Kazuki."
"Little Tsuna, you are Kazuki's sensei and the one who can help him control his power, so you must also be aware."
"But except for the two of you, remember not to let a third person know..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Tsunade's expressions became serious.
Uzumaki Mito's words were extremely formal and serious, even more so than when talking about the Nine-Tails.
"I know, Mito-sama!"
"I know, Grandmother!"
Mito nodded, then turned her gaze to Hiruzen, smiling wistfully before asking him a puzzling question: "Monkey, what kind of person do you think your teacher, Senju Tobirama, is he?"
Hiruzen blinked, surprised.
At this moment, Senju Tobirama in Kazuki's body also pricked up his ears.
But after all, it was Uzumaki Mito who asked the question. Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and then answered: "Tobirama-sensei is a perfect Hokage with the will of fire burning in his heart. A formidable leader, both in power and intelligence."
"He founded the Ninja School, created the ANBU system, established the tradition of teaching among experienced shinobi and recent graduates, supported shinobi of civilian origin and controlled the unstable elements of the village. In the First Great Shinobi War, he faced four enemies alone, sacrificing his life to ensure the future of Konoha..."
"Compared to Tobirama-sensei, I still have a long way to go as the Third Hokage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke very fluently, as if he didn't need to think.
On the one hand, this is a fact. On the other hand, in their era, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also a good hand at the Will of Fire test, and he was seriously considered to have a talent for writing.
Tsunade listened to this strange conversation in confusion, and when she saw Uzumaki Mito's eyes shifted to her, she nodded.
"I think the same as the old man, the second grandfather is a good Hokage, and even a good elder, I miss him very much."
Tobirama listened with satisfaction.
This is what he wanted to hear!
Tsunade has always been his lovely granddaughter, and the monkey's answer sounds quite reasonable.
At this moment, the dissatisfaction of the petty-minded Senju Tobirama about Sarutobi Hiruzen giving him a zero score dissipated a little.
"Okay..." Uzumaki Mito chuckled and asked the second question: "Let's not talk about Tobirama's achievements as a Hokage. Just look at him as a ninjutsu developer. Monkey, what do you think of the scale of his research?"
"I heard that you had a conflict with Danzo and your apprentice over human experiments a few days ago, right?"
"You know, Tobirama also likes to do human experiments, and has developed many forbidden techniques..."
"Monkey, there is no one else here, so you can make a bold comment, right?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was sweating.
