Early the next morning.
Tobirama Senju eagerly woke up early and came to the office that his older brother, Hashirama Senju, had just built using Wood Style.
As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw a man with spiky, unconventional black hair.
At the same time, that man noticed Tobirama Senju.
*Tch, the inherently evil Madara Uchiha / Tobirama Senju!* *Always haunting the place…* *Why is he clinging to my brother / Hashirama again?!* However, considering that Hashirama Senju was deeply biased and his heart had already been deceived by the inherently evil Madara Uchiha, Tobirama Senju could only keep these thoughts to himself.
Naturally, Madara Uchiha was thinking the exact same thing.
For Hashirama’s sake, he would temporarily tolerate Tobirama Senju!
Both of them merely cast a sour, expressionless glance at each other, without a shred of friendliness.
Tobirama Senju then walked straight past him to Hashirama Senju.
“Brother, these are the results of the survey questionnaire I’ve been gathering over the last few days.
Take a look.” “A survey questionnaire?” Hashirama Senju asked in confusion as he reached out to take a stack of papers from Tobirama Senju’s hand, then began to read.
Unsurprisingly, Madara Uchiha also leaned his head in.
Even if what Hashirama wanted to read was a piece of toilet paper, he would still peer over to see what it was about.
[Survey Questionnaire Regarding Hashirama Senju Becoming the Leader of the Village!] The giant line of black text on the page made Tobirama Senju’s intentions crystal clear.
But Tobirama Senju didn’t panic at all at Madara Uchiha’s sudden movement!
This was because all the responses had been given personally by members of the Uchiha Clan.
Furthermore, to increase credibility, Tobirama Senju had specifically instructed the older sister in charge of the “survey” to make sure every Uchiha signed their name on their completed questionnaire.
The results of this survey were pristine.
He had turned it into an airtight case that could absolutely withstand the test of history!
It was practically foolproof!
Now that the inherently evil Madara Uchiha was also present, it was the perfect time for him to witness Tobirama Senju’s methods!
*Your clansmen have already been forcibly represented by me…
This is the mystery of statistics that I have mastered!* *The throne of the village leader belongs to my brother!* *Madara Uchiha, regret this!
Curse your fate for not having a clever brain!* At this thought, a confident and satisfied smile appeared on Tobirama Senju’s face.
He was actually looking forward to seeing Madara Uchiha’s expression once he learned the survey results.
It would surely be an incredibly irritated, ugly expression of someone whose defenses had completely crumbled!
“Agree.” “Yes!” “I think it’s fine!” Hashirama Senju flipped through the survey results page by page.
The findings filled him with immense surprise.
“Am I really that amazing?!” “It’s only natural that the Senju clan members support me, but I didn’t expect the vast majority of the Uchiha clan to support me as well!” As for Madara Uchiha’s thoughts…
*My Hashirama really is incredible!
Winning the support of the Uchiha Clan so quickly…
It seems the day we can put an end to the generational blood feud between the Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan is fast approaching!* Time ticked by.
Soon, Hashirama Senju reached the end of the survey report.
“According to the public opinion poll, Hashirama Senju has received approximately eighty percent support.
Facts prove that Hashirama Senju becoming the village leader is the popular consensus!” This was the concluding summary Tobirama Senju had personally written.
According to his plan, over the next few days, these survey results and conclusions would spread throughout both the Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan.
He wanted to build momentum for his older brother, Hashirama Senju, and not give Madara Uchiha a single chance of becoming the village leader.
By now, Tobirama Senju had pulled back his smile, his eyes shining with a sharp glint.
He watched Madara Uchiha’s expression closely.
But unfortunately, he did not see the expression he was hoping for.
Not only was there no trace of anger on Madara Uchiha’s face, but was that…
a hint of excitement instead?
This left Tobirama Senju feeling like he had punched a bag of cotton.
Was this really logical?
It shouldn’t be!
Tobirama Senju began to doubt his own judgment.
Under normal circumstances, any clan leader in the Ninja World would fly into a rage upon seeing such a report.
Their own clansmen had practically mutinied!
For such an important position as the village leader, their own people didn’t even support them or cast a vote for them?
It was simply outrageous, a complete lack of loyalty that deserved a swift, heavy-handed punishment!
But quickly, Tobirama Senju recalled that the inherently evil Uchiha Clan was mentally unstable, especially those who had awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan.
The Madara Uchiha standing before him possessed the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, making him even more impossible to fathom using normal logic!
Yet, someone who defied common sense was often extremely dangerous!
The inherently evil Uchiha Clan…
Evil, truly too evil!
But at least for now, everything was within his control.
Thinking this, Tobirama Senju cleared his throat and looked at his brother.
“Brother, I told you so.
Your becoming the village leader is entirely what the people want!” “No one is more qualified than you to take on the role of the village leader.” After saying this, Tobirama Senju cast a sidelong glance at Madara Uchiha out of the corner of his eye.
The result was absolutely no reaction.
Madara Uchiha maintained his sour, expressionless face.
Even though Madara Uchiha thought the exact same thing—that his Hashirama was perfectly suited to be the village leader—he had no intention of showing any friendliness to Tobirama Senju, the murderer of his younger brother.
“Madara, what do you think?
Actually, I think you’d be more suited than me.
Why don’t you do it instead?” Hashirama Senju supported Madara Uchiha as always.
*Madara, you’re more suited than me!* “Brother, what on earth are you talking about?!” “The Senju Clan supports you, and the Uchiha Clan supports you too.
Everyone believes in you, yet you’re still—” Tobirama Senju, who hadn’t gotten to see Madara Uchiha lose his cool, lost his own composure first.
He quickly cut in before Madara Uchiha could speak, genuinely terrified that Madara Uchiha would just accept on the spot.
*Brother, as your younger brother, I didn’t just cook the meal for you; I’ve practically chewed it up and fed it to you!* *But you didn’t even look at it, choosing to spit it right into Madara Uchiha’s mouth instead?
What the hell?!* *I worked myself to the bone for your sake and the sake of the Senju Clan…
If you aren’t hungry, you could have just given the food to me!* He was exhausted and wanted to die!
Faced with Tobirama Senju’s anxious, exasperated outburst, the expression on Madara Uchiha’s face was extremely calm.
His eyes showed neither anger nor sadness; if anything, they carried an indescribable contempt.
