As an Uchiha I became the Jinchuriki of Senju Tobirama

Chapter 4: Kazuki’s Plan and Tobirama’s Stand



"Hmph... Since you don't want to answer me, then I'll get straight to the point. Since you are Kagami's descendant, I hope you can inherit his will." Tobirama's voice had an unusually sincere tone. "He is the only Uchiha I recognize. If you told me earlier that you are his descendant, maybe you and I would not have quarreled."

“Don’t be mistaken, child. If you have any thoughts on the tensions between the Uchiha clan and the village, I can help you consider them.”

Kazuki raised the corner of his mouth and replied jokingly: “Senju Tobirama Senju helping the Uchiha clan? Are you planning to help me figure out how to take down the Uchiha clan faster?”

Kazuki's figure appeared in front of Tobirama. He moved his finger to silence him and then said slowly: "From the first unpleasant conversation between you and me to now, I have figured out some things."

"There is nothing wrong with the will of fire. But the people who execute it are very problematic."

“From you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, to Shimura Danzo, they have taken the Will of Fire, which should be interpreted by the entire village, and have used it selfishly to dishonor their political opponents.”

“What a terrible weapon. The Uchiha clan, which originally contributed greatly to Konoha, is now viewed with disdain by everyone in the village.”

Tobirama couldn't speak and just looked at Kazuki coldly, expressing his disagreement.

“Look, this Will of Fire in the hands of a few will not only burn the Uchiha, but also the civilians you want to protect and support.”

“Do you believe it, Senju Tobirama? Do you want to bet? You will soon see if what I say comes true.”

Kazuki snapped his fingers and lifted the ban on Tobirama.

"Kid, don't underestimate me." Tobirama crossed his arms and said confidently and firmly: “It’s impossible. The Will of Fire is the principle that governs Konoha under the leadership of the Hokage, and it is the path that all shinobi of the Hokage line must follow.”

“Just as I once covered their retreat, my students will also sacrifice themselves for their comrades and the future of the village. They will never harm their own comrades and the village.”

Kazuki smiled subtly and raised a finger. "Well, within two years, if the situation I said does not happen, I can agree to any of your requests."

"But..."

“If this happens, you must kneel down and truly apologize, and repent of your sins.”

This time, the calm and wise Tobirama accepted without hesitation.

“Okay, kid. I hope you remember what you said and keep your word.”

“Same to you, Second Hokage.”

After the conversation, Kazuki first sent Shisui to bathe and sleep, then deactivated Tobirama's live broadcast permission, and lay on his bed thinking quietly.

Until now, the bonus period the system gave him was already about to end. The emotional fluctuations caused by the soul imprisonment and the initial rhetoric would no longer affect Senju Tobirama.

The calm and collected Second Hokage quickly adjusted his emotions and accepted the status quo.

So even when Kazuki showed his amazing talent in using Water Release and genjutsu, he only got some small rewards from Tobirama.

This indicated that similar methods would be difficult to use against Tobirama in the future and that a new approach was needed.

"Heh. As expected of Senju Tobirama. But any solid fortress can be destroyed from within…"

Kazuki's eyes were shining with determination. He hadn't bet with Tobirama just on a whim.

At this point in time, Hatake Sakumo is still alive!

Kazuki is looking forward to how wonderful Senju Tobirama's expression will be, how shocked he will be when he sees his beloved disciple trying to use public opinion to force a civilian genius and pillar of Konoha to death.

And, of course, how abundant the rewards would be!

"Shisui, he's only six years old and can't help me much. I can ignore him for now..."

“I need to look for new goals.”

Kazuki thought about the current Konoha shinobi who might be valuable targets…

Among the peers his age that he can contact, there are some with great value, such as Obito, Kakashi and Might Guy.

And if he is looking at the Jonin level or higher, then the current Konoha is still a magnificent treasure.

Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Hatake Sakumo, Uchiha Fugaku, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo...

Sadly, in a matter of a few years, these pillars of Konoha fell one after another.

Only Danzo and the Third Hokage remained, like two relentless puppets, still on the Konoha stage playing opposite roles.

Kazuki was not interested in changing the fate of these people, he only cared about who might have the chance to become his bound target in the future.

In the shinobi world, Kazuki only believes in his own strength. Even if it is Shisui, he will not place too much hope on him.

For Kazuki, these powerful shinobi not only offered good rewards due to their strength, but many of them could also arouse other emotions in Senju Tobirama, shaking the Second Hokage's calm mind.

To capture the attention of these big figures, Kazuki needed to play two key cards.

First, a strength and talent that would attract everyone's attention…

And second, the Will of Fire that leaves a lasting impression!

To gain attention, Kazuki must demonstrate his talent at the right moment, and the Will of Fire is the quickest way for Kazuki to get close to those great figures of Konoha.

If he were to write an in-depth essay on social issues, Kazuki might need time to think it through.

But if it's about focusing on the Will of Fire and the Uchiha clan, to write an article that will get Hiruzen and Danzo's attention, that's very simple.

After all, he only needs to incorporate the thoughts of Itachi and Shisui during the Naruto Series...

“Compared to being a genius waving the flag of the Uchiha clan, infiltrating Konoha’s high command will benefit me much more.”

Kazuki narrowed his eyes. “In this way, not only can I reduce the doubts within the Uchiha clan about me, but I can also directly interact with Minato and Kushina, the Sannin, Hiruzen and Danzo...”

“It is very dangerous to confront these Kage-level shinobi out of hatred or suspicion, and if resentment arises, as with the current Tobirama, they will develop distrust towards me.”

"It's safer to start with other emotions, and it's easier for me to find opportunities when they are vulnerable."

“So the key point will be tomorrow’s final evaluation.”

“With a test that combines real combat and the Will of Fire, it will attract everyone's attention...”

Kazuki poured himself a cup of warm milk, drank it slowly, and then did some stretching exercises before going to bed. Just like what he told Tobirama when he introduced himself.

Tobirama watched this scene silently.

Kazuki had borrowed the self-presentation of Kira Yoshikage, a hand fetishist and serial killer, to mislead Tobirama into believing that his personality was twisted and that he was the craziest Uchiha guy.

But later, to criticize Tobirama from a higher moral position, Kazuki invented a reason: The secret technique was developed to summon him to solve the Uchiha clan's problem.

Now, Kazuki needed to act as Kira Yoshikage, continually switching between personalities to cloud Tobirama's judgment.

In this way it could create strong emotional reactions in Tobirama.

...

The next day.

Kazuki, wearing black contact lenses, walked shoulder to shoulder with Shisui towards the ninja school.

The two brothers were quietly reviewing the battle from the previous day.

"You did a great job, Shisui. At the age of six, you can't be more perfect. You will definitely be better than your brother in the future."

"Remember, don't expose your Sharingan easily, people will think you are a monster genius and exclude you..."

Shisui rolled his eyes, nodded, and whispered: "Brother, compared to my Sharingan, it is your fighting style that is more shocking and fearful..."

“Well, a young Uchiha genius might make some people nervous, but what if a genius like Senju Tobirama turns out to be an Uchiha who hasn’t yet awakened his Sharingan? Surely that would surprise the great figures of Konoha, right?”

Kazuki grabbed Shisui's hair fiercely and said with a smile: "Anyway, remember what you promised me just now, just be an ordinary genius."

“Leave the affairs of the village and the clan in the hands of your elder brother.”

Shisui grumbled, seemingly enjoying the moment, but his mind was filled with unknown thoughts.

"Kazuki-kun!"

A loud voice interrupted the harmonious moment between the Uchiha brothers.

Might Guy, wearing his signature tight-fitting green suit, his head covered in sweat and flashing a bright smile, gave Kazuki a thumbs up.

"Youth begins to burn from the moment you wake up! Kazuki-kun, come compete in a reverse handstand race with me and have a great warm-up exercise for the upcoming exam!"

Seeing Might Guy doing a handstand, Shisui showed an awkward expression.

But Kazuki smiled kindly and gave Guy a thumbs up. “Guy, you are always so dedicated.”

“I’m sure you’ll become an extraordinary taijutsu ninja.”

"Thank you for your continued support, Kazuki-kun!" Might Guy's tears burst out, and he rushed to Kazuki and shouted loudly: "Kazuki-kun, you must work hard on today's graduation exam. Let's become excellent ninjas together!"

"With Kazuki-kun's support, then I'll add another fifty laps to tonight's training. If I can't finish it, I'll challenge Kakashi!"

Might Guy roared, accelerated instantly, and ran upside down without paying attention to others.
