Capítulo 54: Chapter 54: Idol of the Ninja World - Uchiha Madara
The reason why the people of Konoha suddenly like the character of Uchiha Madara in this story is mainly because they feel that they are about to go to the battlefield.
Uchiha Madara wants to annex the other four Shinobi nations, permanently eliminate the threat, and establish a system centered on Konoha. Regardless of the consequences this may have on other countries, it is definitely a big plus for the shinobi of Konoha!
The most direct benefit is that they don't have to risk their lives on the battlefield themselves.
Therefore, both the ninjas who are about to go to the battlefield and their loved ones praised Uchiha Madara and privately expressed: "The First Hokage was really nosy. Uchiha Madara had proposed such a good suggestion. Even if you don't accept it, you can let him complete this mission himself!"
Now, look at what you have left for the Konoha shinobi?
The four nations you left behind have become enemies of Konoha and have nearly laid siege to Konoha in almost every Shinobi World War. If it weren't for the ninja villages starting to backstab each other, Konoha would no longer exist.
The tailed beasts that you sold to other ninja villages have also been on the battlefield several times, causing heavy losses to the entire Ninja World.
"Why can't you just listen to Uchiha Madara's words? Look how true they are now." Countless ninja sighed.
Of course, such politically incorrect words definitely cannot appear in public.
The First Hokage is great and far-sighted! He did this for the sake of peace! But in private, everyone couldn't help but complain with a few words about the First Hokage.
In fact, not to mention these ninjas who have never seen the First Hokage, even the older generation of ninja who admired and willingly served under the First Hokage to build Konoha together couldn't help but complain a few words about the First Hokage.
It is the descendants of many of them who would have to go to the battlefield!
Why did we spare the lives of the other four nations back then?
So, under these special conditions.
Uchiha Madara, who was forcibly expelled from Konoha by countless people in the past, unexpectedly gained a large number of fans!
Some people support him because they are about to go to the battlefield and support the ideals of peace that Uchiha Madara mentioned in the story told by Natsuo. Other people admire Uchiha Madara's dominant style in the story.
Even Danzo, who should have been banned, openly stated, "If I had a say back then, I would definitely support Uchiha Madara's proposal and let the First Hokage unify the Ninja World and bring true peace!"
Of course, as the representative of the hawk faction, his main intention is to express that the First Generation was wrong, and he and the Second Generation made a mistake by choosing the indecisive Third Hokage.
They should have chosen me back then!
You should support me now too. If I become Hokage, I will definitely unify the Ninja World with force like Uchiha Madara and create peace without leaving regrets for future generations.
You all should come and support me. Don't make the same mistakes as the First Generation and the Second Generation!
After Shimura Danzō made this declaration, he actually gained a group of supporters.
The dark clouds of the impending war were already oppressive, and many shinobis and civilian who were tired of the endless wars of the Ninja World chose to join Danzō and speak up for him.
For a while, even the negative impact brought by the recent Root incident was greatly reduced.
The Third Hokage was not to be outdone. He immediately gave an inspiring speech.
Although he didn't explicitly say it, he vaguely implied. "Fellow Konoha members, please fight hard and don't let our descendants in the future blame our weakness like we do now!"
Although he didn't mention "I want to learn from Uchiha Madara." He was still talking about the same thing!
Of course, whether it was the Third Hokage or Shimura Danzō, or many older generations ninja, they didn't really think that the First Hokage was wrong back then.
The situation back then was different from now. The village system had just started, and many systems were not yet perfected.
The trust between ninjas was very low, even among ninjas from the same village, many were long-standing enemies, and there was no unified external environment like now.
Was it being soft-hearted to spare the four nations?
But the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, who also belonged to the hawk faction, supported the First Hokage's decision to spare the four nations back then. Senju Tobirama believed that ninjas were born for war, and once they lost enemies, the main source of income for ninjas, which was war missions, would no longer exist.
They never expected that the entire ninja world would be engulfed, and that Konoha would be under siege by the four nations, with bloodshed every time.
The older generation of ninjas only complained because their children and grandchildren were about to go to war.
Whether it was the Third Hokage or Shimura Danzō, they both knew deep down that the First Hokage had made the right decision back then, and that Konoha was not prepared to unify the ninja world.
But that didn't stop them from putting up signs that said 'Fight like Uchiha Madara, fight with unwavering determination, and leave no regrets for future generations' to boost the morale of the ninjas.
...
There was a lot of activity in Konoha's preparations for war, and the news quickly spread to other countries.
The sentiment of missing Uchiha Madara also spread along with the news of Konoha's preparations, in a way that confused Natsuo.
From Konoha, it spread to the Land of Fire.
And from the Land of Fire, it spread to the Iwagakure, the Kumogakure...
After receiving the intelligence about Konoha's war preparations, the four nations immediately became alert.
They understood, just like the Third Hokage did, that the Fourth Great Ninja War could very well break out after more than a decade of rest.
So, they all gave public speeches to boost morale and inspire their people.
The Fourth Raikage, A, said. "We, Kumogakure, will never be indecisive like the First Hokage. When we strike, we strike to kill. The great Shinobi of Kumogakure will not leave any regrets for future generations! Prepare yourselves for battle!"
The Second Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, said, "Even Uchiha Madara couldn't defeat the 'Will of Stone' of the Iwagakure back then. Now it's time for our 'Will of Stone' to defeat Konoha! We will not make the same mistakes as the First Hokage!"
The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, said. "The harsh environment of the Land of Wind has forged our resilient character. Every Shinobi of Sunagakure will not be as weak as the First Hokage. We will become resolute warriors like Uchiha Madara!"
Even the smaller countries, though they didn't have much presence, also voiced their opinions.
Of course, most of what they said was along the lines of 'Even Uchiha Madara couldn't conquer us back then, so you great nations have even less chance now.' To strengthen the fighting spirit of their own ninjas.
But more or less, they all mentioned Uchiha Madara!
For a moment, Uchiha Madara became the idol of the entire ninja world. Every ninja could hear his story. Even the members of Akatsuki understood the ideals of this legendary ninja.
Kisame sighed deeply, his expression complicated. "Peace, huh? Perhaps his idea is the most realistic and likely to be achieved."
"Perhaps there will be many sacrifices." Sasori said calmly. "But it would be justified if it is possible to achieve peace."
"Although I was spared by the First Hokage back then, I should acknowledge his intentions." Kakuzu said in a low voice. "But his indecisiveness is one of the main culprits behind the current Great Ninja War and the suffering of countless lives."
Konan remained silent. In a peaceful world, tragedies like ours might not happen, right?
Nagato couldn't help but stare at Obito for a long time, then sighed deeply and spoke. "Did you also want to establish rules with force and interests, just like me... Isn't this similar to how I wanted to restrain the ninja world with the power of the Ten-Tails?"
Obito looked embarrassed and quickly responded. "Ah, yes, yes, we're all on the same page. You have inherited my will and have these eyes that were born for this purpose. You will definitely do better!"
However, privately, Itachi and Tobi exchanged glances.
Tobi: 'Did that old man really think that way? Why did I hear him say that he was killed by the First Hokage because he wanted to use Infinite Tsukuyomi?'
Itachi: 'As the son of the clan leader, how come I didn't know that our clan also recorded this little story... But that guy who called himself Uchiha Madara admitted it, so maybe this story is true?'
And as the instigator of everything, Natsuo was completely dumbfounded.
"I just made up a story, now everyone wants to become Uchiha Madara fans?"
