Konoha: Reforge the glory of Uchiha!

"Tobirama-sama, you never wanted an Uchiha clan member to become Hokage."

Uchiha Nan revealed Senju Tobirama's true thoughts. From the start, he had no undue expectations for Tobirama. He became Hokage by gaining Tobirama's approval, otherwise, he would have agreed to Tobirama's request to become his disciple.

"You're right, that's exactly what I thought."

Senju Tobirama admitted frankly, acknowledging his thoughts. Uchiha Nan had already laid everything bare, so there was no need for secrecy.

At the same time, Tobirama's last bit of condescension toward Uchiha Nan faded. This brat was sharper than he had anticipated.

The Uchiha Security Department had been a poisoned bait. Tobirama had calculated that even if Uchiha realized this, they wouldn't relinquish it.

More likely, the Uchiha clan viewed the Uchiha Security Department as a symbol of glory and their private territory. They would happily play Konoha's watchdog until the very end.

"So, kid, you've seen through all this and unraveled my plans to become Konoha's Hokage."

"What do you want by going to such lengths to bring me back through Impure World Reincarnation?"

"Is it just to flaunt your success or mock me, a dead man?"

Tobirama eyed Uchiha Nan, trying to discern his intentions and determine if he was lying.

"Hahaha, how did you know!"

"I just wanted to see you, the deceased Second Hokage, look regretful and lost. Do you know how amusing that is to me?"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

Uchiha Nan laughed wildly, filled with pride.

Tobirama watched Uchiha Nan's crazed grin, wishing he could decapitate him with a Flying Thunder God Slash.

Unfortunately, his body was now under Uchiha Nan's control, leaving him to glare at Uchiha Nan with resentment.

"Believe that?"

"No way! I was just messing with you!"

"I'm not that petty!"

Uchiha Nan watched Tobirama's expression carefully. Indeed, Tobirama had nearly become red with fury. Teasing him was truly entertaining.

In the past, Tobirama had placed immense pressure on Uchiha Nan. Now, given the chance, he had to make up for it.

The Uchiha brat truly has a rotten character!

Tobirama mentally noted Uchiha Nan's poor character.

"I came here today to tell you that you're wrong. I, Uchiha Nan, will become the best Hokage, surpassing both you and Senju Hashirama!"

Uchiha Nan's voice exuded confidence as Tobirama scrutinized him.

Arrogance was typical of the Uchiha clan—a trait that served Uchiha Nan well.

Uchiha Nan ignored Tobirama's gaze and continued:

"Tobirama-sama, you've been blinded by prejudice. The Uchiha clan chose to integrate into Konoha."

"When Madara Uchiha left Konoha, he gave the Uchiha clan a choice: leave with him and start anew. I believe that with Madara's protection, the Uchiha clan would have found a place in this vast ninja world, just as it had thrived for thousands of years."

"But the Uchiha clan rejected Madara and chose to trust Hashirama-sama. We believed that Konoha was our home, a place to protect everything entrusted to us."

"Since the Uchiha clan made that choice, why does Tobirama-sama continue to treat us differently, refusing to give us a chance?"

"Isn't that a betrayal of Shodaime-sama's Will of Fire?"

Uchiha Nan's gaze bore into Tobirama, who hesitated under his scrutiny.

Tobirama couldn't answer, choosing silence instead.

As Uchiha Nan said, the Uchiha clan had made the first concession by abandoning Madara, whose strength was legendary.

The Uchiha clan's concessions should have earned Konoha's trust and respect, instead of fear and manipulation.

However, this didn't sway Tobirama. He seemed innately prejudiced against the Uchiha clan, or perhaps he understood their nature too well.

A clan that loved deeply could unleash infinite courage to protect those they cherished, but also harbor hatred capable of destroying everything, including Konoha.

And Konoha needed stability!

"But none of this matters anymore."

Uchiha Nan waved his hand dismissively. He had won, dismantling Tobirama's plans and altering Uchiha's bleak future.

"I'll make you witness what I accomplish, taking Konoha to heights neither of you Hokages reached."

"Snort."

"Arrogant!"

Tobirama scoffed, clearly skeptical of Uchiha Nan's claims.

Surpass myself and my brother?

That's quite a boast!

"I'll let you see it, Tobirama-sama. Let's make a bet."

"During my lifetime, you'll witness Konoha's prosperity under my rule. When that happens, you'll have to acknowledge me as the Third Hokage!"

Uchiha Nan realized he couldn't convince Tobirama with words alone and didn't possess Uzumaki Naruto's persuasive skills.

Only future achievements could persuade Tobirama to recognize him.

"Fine, I want to see what you're capable of that would make me acknowledge you as the Sandaime Hokage."

Tobirama agreed to the bet, finding it harmless.

He worried Uchiha Nan would release him from Impure World Reincarnation, sending his soul back to the Pure Land, leaving him without a chance to win.

He could only let Uchiha Nan act freely in Konoha.

"But to achieve all this, I can't do it without Tobirama-sama's help."

Uchiha Nan looked at Tobirama with greedy eyes. His long-term missions were tied to Tobirama.

Whether earning money or developing technology, Tobirama was an excellent resource.
