Hashirama didn't criticize Tobirama too harshly, he also knew that Tobirama did it for the sake of Konoha, and he only prioritized his own village's interests.
"Sir, according to Tobirama, wouldn't the drawbacks of dividing the Bijuu be more beneficial for Konoha?"
On the one hand, the division of the Bijuu allows Konoha to gain great benefits, on the other hand, the potential danger of the Bijuu riot can severely weaken other ninja villages.
Then how could Konoha lose?
Isn't this a safe victory?
At least from Tobirama's perspective, even if he was opposed by the Bijuu from Kumogakure this time, Konoha would still win in the future.
Hiruzen and the others just need to remain stable and do nothing.
Konoha Village's comprehensive strength will sooner or later far surpass the other four villages.
Even Tobirama looked at Lux with curiosity, hoping to know where his plan went wrong from the mouth of the 'immortal' who allegedly could travel through time and space and predict the future.
Lux smiled faintly and asked Tobirama again.
"Nidaime, if it were you, what would you do after knowing the drawbacks?"
"Of course, we have to find a way to overcome the drawbacks."
"What will other villages do after they find out that the Bijuu is very strong but the Jinchuriki is unstable and prone to riots?"
"Find a way to improve sealing techniques, find a way to improve the adaptability of the Jinchuriki, until they can fully control the Bijuu. But this is not something that can be easily done. It will take at least a few decades to run and develop it..."
Tobirama's assessment is correct. The villages have indeed been working hard for decades before successfully cultivating Killer Bee, Yagura, and Uzumaki Naruto. Even the latter has nothing to do with village cultivation. The latter was born from pure breeding, plus the guidance of Kumogakure Village, and the cheating of his parents.
"Then leave Konoha with the Kyuubi, which will never lose control. Do you think this village is too comfortable or do you think it's too stupid and will just stay silent?"
Lux's sudden question woke Tobirama up!
An overly comfortable environment will only make society lazy, so future generations will not have the experience of dealing with Bijuu riots.
Especially when other villages continue to make progress at the cost of many casualties.
As long as you stay where you are now, you are regressing, not to mention you are still regressing slowly!
Actually, the Bijuu riot has indeed brought many casualties and problems to the other four villages.
Sunagakure Village needless to say, Shukaku has driven several generations of Kazekage crazy and to death.
Kirigakure Village is similar. Several times the Jinchūriki went berserk and killed a large number of Kirigakure ninja elites.
Iwagakure Village has an old turtle named Onoki. Although he can suppress the Bijuu, he also forced several Jinchūriki to leave the village one after another.
Not to mention Kumogakure Village, without the extraordinary strength of the Third Raikage, Hachibi would have destroyed the village many times.
However, over these decades, other villages have harvested a lot of wool from the Bijuu.
Sunagakure Village developed Magnet Release and Fake Sleep Techniques by researching Ichibi, etc...
Kirigakure Village developed the Bubble Seal and developed the perfect Jinchuuriki.
Kumogakure Village also developed the Iron Armor Seal and developed the Perfect Jinchuuriki.
Iwagakure Village is the worst, but all the Jinchuriki are very loyal to the village, doing many good deeds, and also gradually perfecting their own sealing techniques.
Compare that, only Konoha has the strongest Kyuubi, but it hasn't made any progress and hasn't produced any value. It relies entirely on the capital of the Uzumaki Clan to suppress the Bijuu.
Waiting for the Uzumaki Clan to be accidentally wiped out.
No one in Konoha can teach Naruto how to control the Bijuu.
Only through Naruto's own struggle was he able to truly utilize the power of the Kyuubi.
Before that, the Kyuubi had never brought any help to Konoha, but it had harmed Konoha many times.
Everyone is making progress, and they are all taking advantage of the Bijuu.
Isn't it reasonable to defeat you after I surpass you?
If Konoha gave Orochimaru the Bijuu to study as much as he wanted before, he might be able to mobilize a mechanical Bijuu army to sweep away the Edo Tensei army in the Fourth Shinobi World War.
So what kind of ninja alliance is needed?
"Sir, Tobirama, what do you mean?" Hashirama touched his head, not understanding the meaning of technological progress at all.
Tobirama looked at Lux and said with sincere gratitude:
"Thank you Sir for reminding me. I was careless. I will pay attention to this."
Tobirama secretly decided that after returning to the village, he should change the research and utilization of the Kyuubi. He couldn't wait for other villages to slowly surpass Konoha.
Although the capital he and his brother left to the village is quite large, it still cannot stop future generations from making progress and staying standing!
Of course, Tobirama wasn't too worried.
The Uzumaki Clan + the Uchiha Clan is his most abundant confidence. As long as these two clans exist, it will be difficult for any Bijuu to overthrow Konoha.
Lux guessed what Tobirama was thinking and didn't bother to persuade him.
Later, he will bring Tobirama from Parallel World 2 to see the future Konoha.
Seeing the Uzumaki Clan and the Uchiha Clan all exterminated by Konoha.
"By the way, Sir, what is the optimal solution you mentioned earlier?" Tobirama asked proactively.
Setting aside Lux's mysterious abilities, his accurate analysis of the Bijuu Prevention System alone made Tobirama agree with him, as if he had just met a close friend.
Of course, he hopes to know more about Lux's opinions.
"It's very simple. There's no need to split the Bijuu, just unify the ninja world and eliminate all ninja villages and countries!"
Lux's true intentions were revealed.
The previous analysis of so many shortcomings of the Bijuu Prevention System was just to encourage them to let go of their ambitions and devote themselves to the grand goal of "unifying the ninja world".
Of course, Lux didn't expect to be able to convince Hashirama in just ten minutes, but he could plant the seeds first and then slowly persuade him.
It's impossible to appear and just press his head and let Hashirama and the others go and unify the ninja world.
Don't say that Lux hasn't mastered the power of the Rinnegan, even if he masters everything, he still can't guarantee that he can defeat Hashirama.
"This… is inappropriate."
"It took a lot of effort to end the Warring States Period. If we launch a unification war, how many people will die!"
Hashirama immediately rejected it. He really didn't want to see more war and sacrifice...
"Brother is right. And there's no guarantee whether there will be another split after reunification."
Tobirama also quickly added, but there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.
From the bottom of his heart, he has long wanted to do this!
Unfortunately, his brother never allowed him to.
Once his brother left, it would be difficult for him to conquer the entire shinobi world alone.
Initially, he had concerns about unifying the ninja world. He was very afraid of the split after unification. But now after experiencing the First Shinobi World War, Tobirama also believes that the previous ninja village peace system is just a waste of paper!
It's all nonsense!
It's impossible for people in other villages to understand and tolerate each other with love like his brother.
He gradually abandoned this path in his heart.
Lux glanced at Tobirama: Yes, that's how it looks!
'I know you're very ambitious! Great, I like it!'
Sure enough, the idea of unifying the ninja world is still the easiest to convince the Second Hokage!
"Don't get too excited. I'm just giving advice. I'm not forcing you to unify the ninja world."
"If you think of a more suitable way, I certainly don't mind practicing it, but you have to be mentally prepared for the cost."
Hashirama and Tobirama fell silent.
After witnessing and experiencing the First Shinobi World War with their own eyes, both of them felt unspeakable sadness in their hearts.
No matter how strong your beliefs are, you will inevitably feel hesitant and seek verification after witnessing the facts.
The key is that they really can't think of a better way to replace the Bijuu Prevention System.
"Senju Hashirama, how are you? Can you answer the previous question now?"
"Ah?"
"Is it the village you want to protect? Or relatives?"
"This..."
Hashirama looked at Tobirama and hesitated again.
He established Konoha Village originally to protect Tobirama, Madara, and the people he loved.
But now, his future in this world has killed his best friend Madara for the sake of the village.
Isn't this the greatest betrayal?
Has his future really changed?
Violating the original intention?
What exactly does he want to protect?
Seeing Hashirama's slight confusion, Lux was also quite satisfied.
The will of the God of Shinobi is not easy to change.
First use a sledgehammer to gently open the seal of his steel mind, then push him to change everything and unify the ninja world. This is undoubtedly the safest method.
"You haven't come to a conclusion yet? No need to rush to answer."
"Let me ask two more questions."
"Senju Hashirama, what kind of will of fire do you want to inherit?"
"Senju Tobirama, is it right if you choose to stay and end with your life?"
Hashirama: "Will of Fire?"
Tobirama: "Huh?"
Is it wrong to risk your life to survive and die?
Isn't this unreasonable?
"No need to rush, let's go to the future first and see the story of the next Hokage. It's not too late for you to answer."
