Not just for the power of the Rinnegan, but also for that terrifying regenerative ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Hashirama Senju’s regenerative power, most Tailed Beasts couldn’t even be mentioned in the same breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After his defeat, Hashirama Senju did not kill Madara Uchiha; instead, he once again begged him to form an alliance, hoping the two of them could build a peaceful village together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lying on the ground, Madara Uchiha wore a complex expression as he murmured, “The Uchiha clan has lost. I have lost.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without this battle, the Uchiha would have met the same fate—the tide of history left them not the slightest chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madara Uchiha, whose younger brother Izuna still lived, had not yet sunk into obsession. He hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Chu Yang clearly sensed the rising killing intent emanating from Tobirama Senju—he could see that Tobirama was deeply dissatisfied with his brother’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why not kill Madara Uchiha?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That man is destined to become a source of instability!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama Senju saw further than Hashirama—he saw not just Madara Uchiha, but the entire Uchiha clan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless the Senju clan was willing to relinquish their dominant position, these people would eventually rebel, for their power was too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No powerful clan would willingly submit to another!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Hashirama Senju, this monster, today’s loser might have been the Senju clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, don’t worry about the Uchiha clan. This family is inherently disunited—each head has risen solely through personal strength. We only need to keep dividing and wooing them, and the Uchiha clan will never grow strong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young voice suddenly jolted Tobirama Senju out of his rage. He looked at Chu Yang with thoughtful eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama Senju asked, “If it were Itachi, what would Itachi do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang smiled, “Establish a department that appears prestigious but holds no real power—raise them high, and assign them only missions with near-zero survival rates.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let them receive public praise and bask in the glory of heroes, while simultaneously sending them willingly to their deaths… I mean, sacrifices.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Itachi can think of it as a form of advanced moral coercion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moral coercion?” Tobirama Senju murmured the phrase he’d never heard before, his eyes glinting slightly—he couldn’t deny that Chu Yang’s idea was intriguing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after careful thought, Tobirama Senju still shook his head: “Itachi’re oversimplifying it. Madara Uchiha isn’t a fool—he’ll see through your schemes at a glance. Better to restrict their power from the start, slowly weaken them until they’re powerless to resist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang explained, “This plan must target emotions—we need the Uchiha clan to develop a sense of belonging toward the village your lord is about to build. Don’t let them become outsiders. Otherwise, they’ll cling together tightly, growing even more united under external pressure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divide them through emotion… foster belonging… moral coercion… die beneath the halo of heroes…” Tobirama Senju closed his eyes, Chu Yang’s words echoing repeatedly in his mind. His ideas were strange—and upon deeper reflection, slightly chilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes, the softest knife cuts deepest—especially a rusty one…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Using pleasant emotions as bait is nothing short of manipulating hearts,” Tobirama Senju suddenly narrowed his eyes. “Itachi’re lucky Itachi’re a Senju—otherwise, I’d kill Itachi first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang shrugged. “Master, that’s not fair. I only offered advice because I saw Itachi troubled. Isn’t this like throwing away the ox after the cart is pulled?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph!” Tobirama Senju’s lips curled slightly. Chu Yang had given him a fresh approach to solving the problem, lifting his mood considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He vaguely felt this method was more vicious… and more suitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it avoided conflict with his brother Hashirama over the Uchiha clan—truly two birds with one stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At dawn, Tobirama Senju brought Chu Yang back to their encampment first, then hurried straight to the dungeon and orderly released the Uchiha clan members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sealing jutsu had not been lifted; they were merely freed so doctors could treat them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they waited for the Uchiha clan to come claim their kin. After all, with Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha pushing for it, the alliance between the two clans was inevitable—offering small favors early would help win hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama Senju held great prestige within the clan. Even though he had acted on his own to release the enemy, not a single clan member questioned him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left Chu Yang in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tobirama Senju, what exactly are Itachi trying to do?” Izuna Uchiha stepped forward, his face full of confusion—he simply couldn’t understand this move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama Senju glanced at him and said coolly, “The Senju and Uchiha clans have decided to negotiate. We’re releasing Itachi only to ensure smooth talks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Itachi have the upper hand—why negotiate…?” Izuna Uchiha suddenly asked, eyes brightening. “Did Hashirama Senju lose to my brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wake up!” Tobirama Senju sneered. “Even if Itachi fought a hundred more times, Madara Uchiha could never defeat my brother! Madara lost—but my brother has decided to forgive the past, put aside grudges, and work with Itachi. Don’t be ungrateful!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impossible!” Izuna Uchiha’s face turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and said, “The Uchiha clan will never accept negotiation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang looked at him curiously. “Then how long do Itachi plan to fight? Until the Uchiha clan is wiped out? Even Madara Uchiha lost—what do Itachi have left to fight with?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Izuna Uchiha, silenced by Chu Yang’s words, was overcome with rage once more and spat out a mouthful of hot blood!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the third time already!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each word stabbed straight into his heart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glared at the boy, furious—why do Itachi never anger anyone else, yet always target me alone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At dusk, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha arrived together at the Senju encampment, followed by the previously captured Senju clan members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama Senju, who had already prepared, handed the Uchiha clan members over to Madara Uchiha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madara Uchiha stared at him in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his memory, Tobirama Senju was never such a reasonable man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Tobirama Senju said something that stunned him further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“From now on, we’re comrades!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1064,"2026-06-20T16:23:12.107Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","c863006ee9067a754e13c636aa4418c6b642b6068cbdc54f25aff79d2f683dfe","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-18","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-16",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-cover.jpg"]
