The Naruto fan war has given the Uchiha clan a huge shock.

Chapter 166 The Waters of the Naka River, Hashiramaru's Tears

Chapter 166 The Waters of the Naga River, the Tears of Hashirama and Madara (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The scene returns to the main world: In the Fourth Shinobi World War timeline, the Divine Tree's bullet screen confirms that it has received the answers to the two's "soul-searching questions," and as expected, it moves on to the next timeline.

Just as Tobirama Senju had predicted, the Divine Tree's barrage wall had indeed opened up a new timeline!

"Invite Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha from the breakup timeline of the Nakagawa storyline to participate in a soul-searching interrogation."

Nanga River broke up??

What timeline is this?

When Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were both puzzled by the Fourth Shinobi World War timeline, a new, enormous mirror wall suddenly appeared out of nowhere!

"As usual, let's greet each other by skipping stones on the water."

"Yes, that's what I think too."

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were suddenly transported back to their childhood!

Tobirama finally understood when this timeline began, and he shouted at the wall of comments, "A breakup! That was the moment when Big Brother and Madara broke up!! What does 'break up' mean?!"

Timeline of the breakup in Nanga River - The two teenagers were each preoccupied with their own thoughts, and neither of them noticed the mirror that had silently appeared beneath the surface of the water in the distance.

They took out the pebbles they had prepared in advance from their pockets.

Even knowing you're a thousand hands.

Even knowing you're from the Uchiha clan, the two of them still want to protect each other!

The pebble skipped across the water and landed in the other person's hand. "A trap!" "Run!" After seeing the information engraved on each other's pebbles...

I immediately decided to find an excuse to leave!

"Hashirama! Excuse me, I suddenly remembered I have something important to do today."

"Is that so? Then I'll head back now."

The two exchanged awkward greetings and quickly prepared to leave! Meanwhile, Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima, who were hiding in the woods, simultaneously realized the problem!

"That Hashirama guy! He leaked the secret! Go, Tobirama!" "Yes, sir!"

"That Madara! He told that kid we were here! Let's go, Izuna!" "Yes, Father!"

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, who were quickly retreating, only felt a black shadow flash past them. When they turned around, their father and brother were already facing off against the other party's father and brother!

"Looks like we're on the same page, Butsuma Senju." "And Tobirama too!"

"Looks like it, Uchiha Tajima!" "Izuna's here too!"

Fourth Shinobi World War timeline—

The mirror was below the water's surface, making the view somewhat blurry, but the ninjas could still clearly discern the tense situation in the world on the other side of the mirror.

"That was the Second Hokage when he was a child?!"

"No, no, no! What's even more surprising is that the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha were friends when they were children, and they even betrayed each other to fight?!"

"Speaking of which, didn't someone in the comments say before that Hashirama and Madara Uchiha didn't know each other were ninjas from opposing factions, so why did their younger brothers know each other so clearly?"

The Allied Shinobi Forces glanced furtively at the Reanimated Second Hokage standing there.

Tobirama, however, merely frowned as he looked at the situation reflected in the mirror, combining previous information with his analysis of how to deal with the timeline known as "Nanaga River Breakup" being affected by the barrage of comments.

Naruto, standing nearby, complained, "Does this even mean they have to interfere with him making friends?" He added, "If anyone gets in the way of him and Sasuke being friends..."

Tobirama: "You're even more of an idiot than your older brother! The conflicts between rival clans in our time were far greater than the conflicts between ninja villages now! If you were captured, you'd be subjected to torture and murder! They'd even send your body back to disturb your peace of mind!"

Naruto nodded to indicate that he understood. "So, it was the First Hokage and Madara who changed that era? That's amazing!"

Tobirama: "Hmm." He nodded reluctantly.

Well, actually, Tobirama was quite pleased that someone praised the idiot Aniga.

The timeline of the breakup in Nanga River 1: Uchiha Tajima, Uchiha Izuna, and Senju Butsuma and Senju Tobirama met and charged at their opponents without saying a word!

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju shouted in unison, "Stop!"

But neither of their fathers nor their brothers paid them any attention!

However, at this crucial moment! A strange voice, never before heard by anyone in the Warring States period, suddenly appeared:

"A soul-searching question!"

["What about Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, who broke up at the Naka River?"]

"What's your relationship with him?"

Strange mirrors, like ghosts, slowly emerged from the surface of the Namka River.

The water droplets hanging on it cascaded back into the Namga River.

The selectors were placed in the hands of the two people, and the four buttons that could be pressed were labeled with the meaning of the corresponding buttons.

At the same time, the voice in the mirror repeated the question, giving them a choice:

[Please choose one of the following four options: "Brothers," "Friends," "Enemies," or "Lovers."]

A sudden situation, a mirror never seen before, and eerie sounds that have been specially treated!

Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima both chose to pause the battle! As they jumped back, they didn't forget to call out to their second son.

"Tobirama! Come back!" "Izuna! Back off!"

The two younger sons obediently followed their father and jumped behind them!

Madara and Hashirama, completely unaware of what was going on, were still standing on the banks of the Naka River, holding the strange selector in their hands.

Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima have been rivals for decades. They could tell from each other's reactions that the strange sound and the mirror that neither of them had noticed were related to each other.

"Hashirama!" "Madara!"

The two men questioned their sons, wondering if the strange voice they had just heard was actually asking about the relationship between their sons.

Both Hashirama and Madara expressed that they themselves did not know either.

"Torture?! That's utter nonsense!"

"I can't sense any chakra in the mirror," Uchiha Tajima said.

They couldn't sense any chakra or see any signs of a trap, but the two clan leaders who lived during the Warring States period knew the principle that making the first move could make them the first enemy, even before they knew who was behind the mirror.

Thousand-Armed Butsuma sneered, "Friends? Brothers? Lovers? That's hilarious!"

After a cold laugh, he turned sternly to his eldest son: "There can only be one kind of relationship between the Senju and Uchiha clans! That is—enemies!!"

Uchiha Tajima: "I share the same thought as you, Senju Butsuma! The coexistence of the Uchiha and Senju clans is truly remarkable."

There's only one relationship: "enemies"!

As if reminding the two clan leaders that the choice was in Madara and Hashirama's hands and that they had no right to interfere, the Divine Tree barrage once again emphasized that the choice should be made by Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.

"Please make a choice between Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama in the timeline of Nakagawa's breakup."

In the milky white mirror, there is a strange, chibi-style divine tree with a mouth full of shark teeth, its smile both cute and somewhat evil.

The little divine tree has a large, round eye on its face that resembles a Sharingan, red with nine black tomoe, each with a fine coil.

Just from its appearance, the two knowledgeable clan leaders couldn't help but guess that the mirror and its owner were no ordinary people! They were probably not to be offended.

Hashirama Senju stared wide-eyed at the selector in his hand, looking bewildered.

"My relationship with Madara—?"

Madara Uchiha looked at Hashirama and read out his name.

"Hashirama"

[Brothers] [Friends] [Enemies] [Lovers]

The two fumbled for the four buttons, excluding lovers, since they were both men.

But the two hesitated over the remaining three options.

Uchiha Tajima and Senju Butsuma: "What are you still hesitating for?!"

Uchiha Izuna: "Brother?"

Tobirama Senju: "Brother—"

Their father's pressure, their status as the son of the clan chief, and the ghosts of their deceased brothers all pounded at their senses, urging them to choose an enemy, choose an enemy, choose an enemy!!

"I am Hashirama, and you are—"

Call me Madara!

How can we stop war and death?

"Only by drinking the sworn brotherhood wine, and becoming brothers who can confide in each other, can war and death be stopped, but that is almost impossible!"

"It's decided! We'll build a village here! A wonderful village where even a child won't have to go to the battlefield!"

Yes! Put all the younger brothers in the village and protect them!

The two boys were sweating with anxiety.

Because of the "enemy" option, they really couldn't bring themselves to choose it!

spot-....

"Hashirama—"

"I don't want to be your enemy."

Hashirama Senju's mind tightened. He took a deep breath, his mind filled with images of training with Madara and contemplating peace plans together.

Ban, you are a revelation from heaven. If peace truly exists, then I must grasp at its tail no matter what.

Then-

Hashirama's gaze focused on the face whose red eyes were filled with surprise—

"Tobirama, you are my most important younger brother. Even if it means defying Father, I want to protect you! As your older brother, I've made that resolve!"

With that thought in mind, Hashirama pressed the option button forcefully!

"Whoosh—!"

[“Hashirama Senju has made his choice; Madara Uchiha, please make your choice as soon as possible.”]

"Hashirama!"

Madara looked at Hashirama Senju with a strange expression.

Uchiha Tajima: "Madara, you are my son. You don't need me to tell you what choice to make, do you?"

Uchiha Izuna: "Brother."

Father—Izuna—

Madara looked at his younger brother and told himself once again: This ninja world's system is flawed! To protect those who are important to him, change is necessary!

Despite his fear of his father's authority and his inability to forget the hatred for his three brothers, he must be prepared to bring about change in order to protect Izuna!

At that moment, Madara Uchiha also pressed the option.

[Whoosh!]

["Confirmed the option for Hashirama Senju to break up with Nakagawa. Hashirama Senju considers Madara Uchiha to be his friend."]

["Confirmed the option of breaking up with Uchiha Madara in Nakagawa. Uchiha Madara considers Senju Hashirama to be his brother."]

"Madara!!" Hashirama's nose stung with tears at that moment!

Although it was different from what they had chosen, their dreams were not shattered by their families' discovery!

Of course, this infuriated Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima!

"Do you know what you're doing?! Hashirama!"

"Are you trying to betray your own family?! Madara!!"

Having received a positive response from Madara, Hashirama Senju's confidence soared. He stubbornly glared at his father, declaring, "Because I never want to hear news of my brother's death again! Madara is just like me in this respect! We must change the flawed rules of this ninja world!!"

"Arrogant and presumptuous! Nonsense!!" Senju Butsuma was so angry that he repeatedly belittled Hashirama's delusions as unrealistic.

Uchiha Tajima threatened Madara with his Sharingan, "Is that really what you think too, Madara?"
