Chapter 177 : This is the God of Ninja World!

Kazuhiko ruthlessly pointed out the essence of Isamu's words.

"You and the Uchiha clan were both instrumental in the establishment of Konoha. Why did you later cast aside the Uchiha clan?"

"What more is there to say about the malevolent chakra, the extreme and withdrawn personalities? Didn't you know this from the beginning? No, you did! 

"But after successfully founding Konoha, more and more clans joined. 

"So, you abandoned the Uchiha, placing various burdens on others. Don't you think this is burning bridges?"

"This is injustice! When a leader is unjust, something will inevitably go wrong sooner or later!"

"Moreover, you've always known that the Uchiha's contributions to Konoha are indispensable for the Senju. Why are two successive Hokages from the Senju, while the Uchiha are distanced from the position of Hokage?" 

"Isn't this creating more and more distance between the Uchiha and Konoha?"

Hearing Kazuhiko's 583 questions, Isamu was left speechless for a while, with no excuse to counter this.

He was aware that his uncle, the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, could indeed suppress the Uchiha, leading to a severe separation between them and Konoha. He could only offer an awkward smile.

"The Uchiha were with you from the beginning. You shared the same goals and paths, but after your success, you strayed too far..."

"This is a failure of selfishness and managerial incompetence..."

Kazuhiko looked at Isamu, pondered for a moment, but still couldn't figure out how to ensure that the interests and demands of the rulers of the unified regime align.

These were political intricacies, and delving into them would reveal too much.

Isamu, on the other hand, didn't overthink it. What Kazuhiko presented to him today opened his eyes.

The information embedded in it was enough to provoke contemplation.

He mulled over everything Kazuhiko said, and the more he thought about it, the more he believed that such a path was worth exploring.

Unified governance!

With this in mind, Isamu looked at Kazuhiko in front of him and grew increasingly content.

He vaguely sensed the future path that Kazuhiko might tread but remained uncertain for a moment.

After all, such a path is exceedingly challenging and destined to face strong resistance from major ninja villages.

Such thinking could be considered out of place in the current ninja world, and if uttered, it wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Yet, Isamu harbored an inexplicable impulse, feeling that the path proposed by Kazuhiko was the correct one.

Such a path appeared more pragmatic than the "mutual understanding" spoken of by his father.

The current Isamu had to acknowledge that the young clan head before him possessed truly profound insights.

Indeed, with the establishment of a unified regime, there would inevitably be individuals coveting the corresponding leadership positions. To convince the public, the occupant of such a seat had to truly embody fairness.

Power and status were easily lost, and a leader who couldn't govern fairly and justly was a terrifying prospect. Take the current Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, for example. Initially, he lacked the ambition his father and uncle saw in him.

However, due to various circumstances, he had become hypocritical and even frightening. While his actions were ostensibly for the benefit of Konoha, they were more about securing his own status. 

He continuously suppressed the Uchiha and Senju clans, facilitating the gradual growth of the Sarutobi clan. This was an unfair practice.

All of this would ultimately lead to the decline of the Senju clan. Yet, as a crucial member of the Konoha Shinobi village, weakening the Senju clan's strength was, in essence, weakening Konoha itself.

Isamu pondered these matters. In the past, his father and Uchiha Madara chose not to level the ninja world but instead established a vast ninja village, laying the groundwork for future conflicts. Despite understanding this, Isamu couldn't help but sigh at how farsighted his father had been.

He acknowledged that there were no politics classes in Japan back then.

Now, hearing Kazuhiko's observations, Isamu saw the truth. However, without his father or Uchiha Madara, and with most of the top players from the Senju and Uchiha era gone, the challenge seemed daunting.

Isamu sighed as he looked at Kazuhiko and remarked, "What you're saying makes sense, but can it still be achieved now? Establishing a unified regime is more difficult with stronger countries and more formidable power than before."

"It depends on the people," Kazuhiko responded confidently. "If you won't do it, I will. I believe I can still accomplish it!"

"Why are you so confident?" Isamu asked, intrigued by Kazuhiko's assurance.

"The deeds undone by the predecessors may be accomplished by later generations. People outside call me the new god of the ninja world, so the god of the ninja world will naturally achieve what others can't!" Kazuhiko explained with a smile.

This reasoning convinced Isamu. Yes, as the new God of the Ninja World, Kazuhiko could undoubtedly accomplish feats deemed impossible by others, embodying the essence of a true god in the ninja world.
