Chapter 298

Seeing the look in Hashirama Senju's eyes,

Future Sasuke felt as if every secret in his entire body had been seen through by him.

He let out a soft sigh and made a decision in his heart.

"My name is Uchiha Sasuke, and indeed I am a member of the Uchiha clan from the future timeline."

"My era and yours are separated by somewhere between several decades to several hundred years…"

"In the future world… enemies of the Ōtsutsuki clan appeared and tried to capture the Nine-Tails within the body of the Seventh Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto…"

"If he captures the Nine-Tails and then gathers all the Tailed Beasts, it will be a catastrophic disaster for the entire shinobi world."

【Uzumaki Naruto: Hahaha!! Just as I guessed, this great man is the one destined to become Hokage!! See that? I'm the Seventh Hokage!!】

【Sakura Haruno: …I didn't expect that Naruto actually became Hokage in the future.】

【Kiba Inuzuka: Dammit!! That idiot, how could he? How could he possibly become Hokage? This great man is the one who's supposed to become Hokage.】

【Shikamaru Nara: Looking at it now, it makes perfect sense. He's the son of the Fourth Hokage, and he's also the jinchuriki of the strongest Tailed Beast, the Nine-Tailed Fox. Whether in strength or status, Naruto becoming Hokage isn't that hard to imagine…】

【Fourth Raikage: The Fourth's son looks like such an idiot, he doesn't seem like the type who could become Hokage at all…】

【Ōnoki: Heh heh… that's not necessarily so. Although Naruto looks like a dead-last in every respect, that's only because Hiruzen Sarutobi deliberately targeted him, and on top of that he never received a complete education from childhood… Once he has a qualified teacher, his strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds.】

【Kakashi Hatake: Naruto actually became the Seventh Hokage? Konoha only has four Hokage right now… In such a short span of time, who could the other two Hokage be?】

Without telling everything,

Future Sasuke only gave a rough outline.

Because he didn't know whether telling these things would have any effect on this timeline,

the differences between this timeline and the one he knew were simply too great!!!

"Hokage? What's that?"

"It sounds like it has something to do with the Land of Fire…"

(Li's) "Is it some new position that came out of the Land of Fire?"

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha exchanged glances, both showing puzzled expressions.

Hearing this, Future Sasuke's heart jolted!!

He had already seen it,

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha had no intention of founding Konoha at all!!

So in this timeline,

Konoha was something that simply could not exist!!

After taking a deep breath,

Future Sasuke prepared to tell his entire history.

He now believed

that this timeline was not the history on their timeline at all, but the history of another parallel timeline.

So even if he told them,

it would have no effect on their world or this world!!

After hearing Future Sasuke recount several hundred years of history in one breath,

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha both stroked their chins,

showing thoughtful expressions.

"You mean, that guy Hashirama captured nine Tailed Beasts, and then distributed all nine Tailed Beasts to others?!"

Madara Uchiha wore an expression as if he'd seen a ghost.

How could this be?!

Hashirama Senju doing such a thing

was no different from telling him that he himself would break with Hashirama Senju and defect from Konoha — a complete fairy tale!!

"Yes… although the First Hokage, my lord, possessed the power to easily capture nine Tailed Beasts."

"His existence also brought a brief period of peace to the shinobi world."

"But after his death, the shinobi world immediately erupted into the First Shinobi World War…"

"And after the First Shinobi World War broke out, the shinobi world then erupted into two more Shinobi World Wars."

"Each Shinobi World War that broke out caused casualties far exceeding any war of the Warring States period."

At this point, Future Sasuke's mood also grew heavy.

It was precisely because of the emergence of these wars

that his brother Itachi Uchiha had inner feelings different from others since childhood,

which led to his extreme hatred of war,

and also led to the choices he made later!!!.

137. Rinnegan Showdown! Before Us, There Is No Enemy!

Listening to the historical development Future Sasuke recounted,

not only did Madara Uchiha find it strange,

even Hashirama Senju himself found it extremely astonishing!!

He himself founded a place called Konoha,

Madara Uchiha broke with him,

he had barely managed to capture nine Tailed Beasts,

and then distributed all nine Tailed Beasts to other countries…

This didn't sound at all like something he could have done!!!

Hashirama Senju glanced at the future Sasuke, then looked at Madara Uchiha.

"Do I look... like the kind of person who would do something this stupid?"

Hashirama Senju was utterly speechless inside!

Because in his eyes,

capturing the nine Tailed Beasts and then distributing them to other countries...

no matter how you looked at it, that didn't seem like something a normal person would do!!

【Jiraiya: Doubt from the man himself is the most lethal!! Who would have thought, even the other First Hokage himself feels this matter isn't quite normal!!】

【Orochimaru: If the First hadn't distributed the Tailed Beasts to other countries, perhaps the later ninja world wars wouldn't have happened at all!】

【Madara Uchiha: Capturing the Tailed Beasts and then distributing them to other countries — this really does seem like something the Hashirama I know would do...】

【Hashirama Senju: Uh... I did have such a thought, is there anything wrong with it? Like this... wouldn't the power of several countries reach a balance... and wouldn't war no longer break out?】

【Tobirama Senju:... Big brother, your approach — apart from yourself, I'm afraid no one can support it... this can no longer be described as mere foolishness.】

【Hiruzen Sarutobi: First Hokage, my lord... have you ever considered one question — the reason war didn't break out wasn't because of the Tailed Beasts, but because of you.】

"So... that's how the whole thing went."

"But none of this matters now."

"Your world doesn't look like the history I'm familiar with..."

The future Sasuke sighed.

He figured that telling these things now didn't really matter.

Because,

this timeline was definitely not the one he understood!!

Although their appearances were exactly the same as the ones he had seen,

and even their abilities were about the same,

in many respects they were still completely different!!

So,

the future Sasuke stopped thinking about whether he should or shouldn't share what he knew!!

After hearing this,

Hashirama Senju did indeed fall into some thought,

and was seen casually picking up a tree branch from the ground.

He turned and said to the future Sasuke.

"I know what you've been worried about all along."
