Chapter 2073: Chapter 2073
This guy sees me and immediately starts glaring like I owe him money.
Takuya met Tobirama's fiery gaze head-on.
The crowd collectively gasped.
"You insolent, unfaithful brat! Today, I'll—!"
Tobirama was furious, ready to explode on the spot.
Just as he was about to make a move—
Hashirama stepped in.
"Tobirama, this isn't the place for this.
Let's go to the Hokage Office and talk there."
"This kid is something else…"
Hashirama was genuinely impressed.
Other than Uchiha Madara, nobody had ever dared to ignore Tobirama .
"But, Brother! Didn't you see how shameless he is—!"
Hashirama's expression darkened.
"We'll talk in the office.
Or do you want all of Konoha to laugh at us?"
I understand, Brother. Don't be mad."
Tobirama instantly backed down.
He even tried to comfort Hashirama.
"This is ridiculous."
The entire crowd was stunned.
"Everyone else, disperse.
Sakumo, take the ANBU and detain Orochimaru."
Under Tsunade's orders, the bystanders gradually left.
Orochimaru, though restrained, didn't seem worried at all.
"You guys go on ahead. I'm stopping by the Hokage Office."
Takuya had no interest in going.
But since it was Tsunade's request, he had no choice.
Still, he wasn't about to sit down and have a friendly chat with Tobirama.
Tobirama, still fuming, was dragged away by Hashirama.
The Third Hokage led the way.
Sakumo and the others quickly disappeared.
Takuya and Tsunade, however, took their time.
"You really couldn't wait, huh?
I barely had time to speak with Grandfather, and you're already fighting my Granduncle?"
Tsunade sighed, exasperated.
"He's the one picking a fight with me.
I'm just minding my own business."
I'm not taking the blame for this.
Then, with a smirk, he pinched Tsunade's waist and whispered—
"You coming back to my place tonight?"
Tsunade's face turned red as she hissed—
"All you ever think about is nonsense!"
"Sleeping is nonsense?"
"Alright, alright, you win.
Though… I mean, sleeping usually leads to other things anyway."
Tsunade really wanted to punch him.
Meanwhile, in the front—
Hashirama was taking in the sights.
"So, the village has grown this much after I left, huh?
Monkey, you did a good job."
"You're seriously praising him?!
Did you not just see what happened to Tsunade?"
Tobirama shot a furious glare at the Third Hokage.
"Monkey, how did you let this happen?
That brat is clearly younger than Tsunade!
How did they even end up together?!
And what about that Uzumaki girl?
She's a Jinchūriki—she shouldn't even be in a relationship!"
Hashirama's face twitched.
"Are you talking about me?"
Tobirama instantly felt the stare.
"B-Brother, I didn't mean you—"
"Cough cough. Teacher, First Hokage, let's discuss this in the office."
The Third Hokage was sweating bullets.
He wasn't sure how the two Senju brothers would react—
If they found out about all the corrupt things he and Danzo had done.
Because while their actions were done in the name of Tobirama's teachings—
They had taken his ideology and twisted it beyond recognition.
They had used his name as an excuse for pure power-grabbing.
If Tobirama figured that out?
Things could get ugly.
Tobirama might be manageable—
But Hashirama was a different story.
He might act like an idiot sometimes—
But when it came to serious matters—
His judgment was absolute.
If he decided something was wrong—
Even Tobirama wouldn't be able to argue against it.
Tobirama suddenly asked.
The Third Hokage's smile froze.
He opened his mouth a few times but…
"Oh? There's a story here."
Hashirama chuckled as he patted the Third Hokage's shoulder.
Tobirama's expression darkened.
Once they arrived at the Hokage Office—
Tobirama immediately demanded—
"You don't have to mind me.
Just pretend I'm not here."
Hashirama smiled and wandered around the office—
Checking out random decorations while waiting for the conversation to start.
The Third Hokage sighed.
"He defected from the village.
Takuya tracked him down to the Land of Rain—
And personally dealt with him."
Tobirama's expression shifted.
Danzo had been one of his most trusted students.
Aside from Kagami Uchiha, Danzo and Hiruzen were the ones he valued the most.
Hiruzen was telling him Danzo was dead.
His mind struggled to process it.
But before he could react—
A voice interrupted from the doorway.
"What do you mean I tracked him down and personally dealt with him?"
Takuya's icy voice rang through the office.
Tsunade stepped inside, her expression cold.
"Teacher, you're twisting the truth."
She gritted her teeth and continued—
"Takuya was in the Land of Rain on a mission when he happened to run into Danzo.
And as for what Danzo did—
Do you really need me to explain it, Granduncle?"
Tobirama's eyes narrowed.
"Danzo killed himself.
He used the Reverse Four Symbols Seal in an attempt to drag Takuya down with him—
Hashirama raised an eyebrow, looking intrigued.
"Did I really train a disciple that stupid?"
Tobirama's face darkened.
"What the hell did you let him do?!"
Meanwhile, Takuya simply smirked and leaned against the doorway.
I'd love to hear how the Third Hokage is going to explain all of this to his teacher."
Because he was involved in almost all of it.
And he knew exactly how deep the corruption went.
Hiruzen stuttered, unable to find the words.
He wanted to sugarcoat the story—
But with both Takuya and Tsunade here, if he tried to lie—
They'd expose him immediately.
Would be far too embarrassing.
