"Your Excellency...did you seal Shukaku into this sword?"
"So what?"
Fang Mo asked with a deliberately sullen face.
"How is this done?" Namikaze Minato asked in disbelief: "I know a little bit about sealing techniques. There is no precedent for sealing tailed beasts with artifacts, but I have never heard of sealing tailed beasts with artifacts.
You can borrow the tailed beast's chakra..."
"Is it impossible to extract tailed beast chakra without a Jinchuriki? Is a Jinchuriki such an inconvenient thing?"
Fang Mo glanced at Namikaze Minato with a dull look: "In the final analysis, the purity of you brats is too low, as small as dust, not even one ten thousandth of Hashirama's."
"Well……"
Namikaze Minato's face froze when he heard this, but he soon continued to ask: "So are you planning to use this method to recover the nine tailed beasts?"
"Recover eight first."
Fang Mo said calmly: "Isn't the nine-tailed little pet still in Konoha? In that case, let's leave it there first. What we need to do now is to recycle the tailed beasts from other ninja villages. Only in this way can they be released first.
Be honest."
"Is that so?"
Hearing this, Namikaze Minato breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he still felt that Uchiha Madara's approach was very dangerous, but if the other party did not touch Kyuubi... then at least Kushina's side had escaped disaster.
"Kid, what's your name?"
Seeing Namikaze Minato heaving a sigh of relief, Fang Mo also deliberately asked.
"Namikaze Minato."
Namikaze Minato replied.
"Oh?" Fang Mo raised his eyebrows: "You don't have a famous bloodline, but you master Tobirama's Flying Thunder God Technique? Yes, it seems that Konoha is not without its merits now."
After finishing speaking, Fang Mo suddenly threw the Shukaku Sword in his hand.
Namikaze Minato was startled, but he still subconsciously caught the flying sword.
"Your Excellency, this is..."
Looking at the cursed sword surrounded by countless grains of sand in his hand, Namikaze Minato was stunned.
"Flying Thunder God consumes too much chakra, so I will lend you this sword first." Fang Mo said calmly: "Because of that idiot Hashirama's ideas, the five major countries have been fighting for years, and the ninjas of Konoha must have suffered heavy losses.
"
"Now Konoha is in the palm of my hand, Uchiha Madara, and I will not allow these precious living forces to be wasted on the battlefield so meaninglessly. I will lend you this Sword of Shukaku first, even though your talents are far inferior to mine.
One in ten thousand, but it shouldn’t take long to master this sword. When the time comes, it will be up to you to defeat the enemy and ensure that the remaining Konoha ninjas can survive to the greatest extent possible."
"What's this?"
After hearing what Uchiha Madara said, Namikaze Minato was stunned.
To be honest, Namikaze Minato didn't know much about this legendary ninja. He only knew that he was an arrogant, arrogant, and crazy guy who was subdued by the First Hokage because he wanted to destroy the village.
But what the other party just said made him stunned. In order to protect the vitality of the village, the sword that sealed the tailed beast was freely given to him?
At this moment, Namikaze Minato was a little confused about who the other party was.
You said he is not Uchiha Madara, right?
His conversation, temperament, ideas, strength, and appearance are no different from Uchiha Madara.
But you said he is Uchiha Madara...
When did the Uchiha family learn to protect Konoha? They also find ways to protect the lives of other ninjas. Is this really something that a arrogant guy like Uchiha Madara can do?
"You look confused."
Fang Mo saw Namikaze Minato's confused look and deliberately asked: "Why, do you have doubts about my decision?"
"Indeed... I'm a little confused."
Namikaze Minato thought for a while and finally nodded and admitted.
"ignorance."
Fang Mo glanced at Namikaze Minato and then asked: "Then what is your ideal?"
"I want to be Hokage." Namikaze Minato said almost without thinking: "Use my power to protect my companions, protect the people I love, and no longer let war take away people's happiness and lives."
"Hum hum."
Fang Mo held his shoulders with his hands and let out a disdainful Uchiha laugh, then suddenly said with a cold tone: "It's a very good ideal, but... you are simply too narrow-minded! Do you think that the mere Hokage can stop the war?"
"What?"
Namikaze Minato was stunned.
"Senju Hashirama thought the same way at the beginning, but what was the result?"
Fang Mo sneered: "The five major countries are just afraid of the strength of his ninja god. The armistice agreement and so on. Humph, the agreement was torn up in an instant after he died. How stupid Hashirama is to talk about my ideas.
He used absolute force to suppress the entire ninja world, which is extremely ridiculous, so why didn’t he do this himself?"
"What's even more stupid is that he actually obeyed Tobirama's wishes and distributed the tailed beasts to other villages."
"Originally, ninjas just used ninjutsu and kunai to fight each other, but what about with weapons like tailed beasts? Which village doesn't want to control this power, and then use tailed beast jade to permanently wipe other villages off the map?
"
"this……"
Namikaze Minato was a little confused when he heard this.
To be honest, at this moment, he actually felt that what Madara Uchiha said made some sense.
"Hey, kid."
And just when Namikaze Minato was thinking, Uchiha Madara...or Fang Mo suddenly interrupted him: "Do you know what the source of the war is?"
"The origin of the war?"
Namikaze Minato was stunned for a moment, and then thought of his master Jiraiya's words: "Could it be that...people can't understand each other?"
"Pattern! So stupid!"
Fang Mo suddenly roared angrily, and then immediately said: "People can't understand each other! Some people enjoy torturing others, some are lustful and addicted, and some people can't live without each other.
There are big fish and meat, some people are greedy for power and wealth, people in this world have different joys and sorrows, you and I are not involved, tell me how do you understand them?"
"Well……"
Namikaze Minato subconsciously wanted to defend himself, but found that he didn't know how to speak.
"Mutual understanding between people is simply the biggest lie in the world." Fang Mo looked at Namikaze Minato's confused look and once again gave an example: "If there is a child, all his close relatives will
He died in the war, and he wanted people to understand him, so should he also start a war and let the world taste the pain!?"
"Wait, it shouldn't be like this..."
Namikaze Minato said subconsciously: "We can love him, take care of him, and make him forget the pain..."
"Oh, is it so?"
Fang Mo's mouth curved with a trace of joy: "Then how many children can you save? In this corner of the world, there are always people displaced by war. The territories of the five major countries are as vast as the vast sea, and you are just a mere
A grain of sand, heh...can it really be saved?"
"Then what do you think?"
Namikaze Minato was indeed confused by Fang Mo and couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it is to completely cut off the cause and effect of this hatred!"
Fang Mo waved his hand domineeringly and said in the arrogant tone unique to the Uchiha clan: "I use these scarlet eyes to burn the decaying earth! From now on, there will no longer be five great ninja villages, and the five great countries will no longer exist. From now on, there will be only
In an eternal country, the chakra of ninjas should not be used for killing, but to transform the world. Be it hunger or illness, everything will be away from us!"
"We will eventually break free from the shackles of this small world and reach the top of the sky!"
"this……"
Minato Namikaze stared blankly at Madara Uchiha in front of him.
He felt as if something vaguely moved in his heart.
It was a very indescribable emotion, as if one's own reason and ideals were clashing in the brain. It was really tangled. Namikaze Minato actually really hoped that the world could become peaceful and prosperous.
However, the education and knowledge he received since childhood prevented him from possessing the same decisiveness and courage as the other party.
To put it simply.
It was Namikaze Minato's rationality that told him that the five great ninja villages and the five great nations cannot be destroyed, and the rules cannot be messed up. Uchiha Madara's ideal is simply too crazy and must be stopped.
But at the same time, Namikaze Minato's own philosophy was like a seed, deeply rooted in his heart. After listening to Uchiha Madara's words, it began to grow rapidly and kept growing.
He told Namikaze Minato that this was a truly new path full of light.
"But that...must cause a lot of sacrifices, right?"
Namikaze Minato hesitated.
"Sacrifice is inevitable." Fang Mo glanced at Namikaze Minato and asked calmly: "Ask yourself, if you don't do that, will there be fewer innocent sacrifices in the world?"
"but……"
Namikaze Minato seemed to want to say something more, but before he could speak, a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder.
"It is precisely because we don't want their sacrifice to be in vain that we have to make changes."
Fang Mo looked at Namikaze Minato: "Kid, there are souls in this world. They are all waiting for us in the underworld. Do you want to tell them helplessly after a hundred years of death that nothing has changed in this world...or do you want to tell them after death?
Return to the underworld full of glory, proudly respond to the expectations of those children. Tell them that you spent your whole life changing the world, and that there will be no more pain and strife in the world from now on?"
"Whether it's the five major countries or the five major ninja villages, even my kin and descendants... are so superficial."
I saw Uchiha Madara pressing one hand on Namikaze Minato's shoulder, looking at the sky with his red eyes.
"People are fighting for power on the earth, hostile to each other and killing each other for the slightest benefit. Ha... the prisoners in this world are mostly like this. Looking out through the window of fate, they all look down on the soil."
