Chapter 178 : Want to join me?

Isamu found himself momentarily taken aback by the aura exuded by Kazuhiko, captivated by his unwavering self-assurance. This confidence, after all, was the very essence of why he bore the title of the God of the Ninja World.

Curiously, Isamu gazed at Kazuhiko and questioned, "Why are you sharing this with me? You realize that once this information spreads, you'll become the most unpopular figure in the ninja world..."

After a brief contemplation, Kazuhiko responded earnestly to Isamu, "Maybe it's because you're the first person I've encountered who challenges the system established by the First Hokage."

Isamu was stunned, not anticipating such a rationale.

Disregarding Isamu's surprise, Kazuhiko continued, "Initially, I was willing to discuss this with you because you and I are destined to be family in the future. However, in our conversation, I discovered your dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs."

Kazuhiko locked eyes with Isamu, observing him intently without a single blink. From the first moment he spoke about the flaws in Konoha's system and the misguided path of the First Hokage, Kazuhiko had been attuned to every nuance of Isamu's reactions.

Feeling Isamu's subtle approval when acknowledging Konoha's mistakes, Kazuhiko was motivated to continue the conversation.

Upon hearing Kazuhiko's resolute words, Isamu was once again astonished. He hadn't expected Kazuhiko to possess such keen observation skills. Though he had harbored dissatisfaction, he remained uncertain about the right course of action.

Now, affirmed by the proclaimed new God of the Ninja World, Isamu found clarity, realizing that his father's path had indeed been misguided.

After recovering from the initial surprise, Isamu looked at Kazuhiko, and his previous thoughts resurfaced.

"So, what about you? What is it that you truly desire?" After a prolonged silence, Isamu couldn't contain the question burning within him.

Kazuhiko, not one to conceal his plans or ambitions, responded confidently, "Me? I will lead the Uzumaki clan to conquer the five major ninja villages and establish a unified ninja regime! I'll govern all ninjas and civilians, ensuring ordinary people can live in peace, ultimately bringing true peace to the ninja world!"

"And in the process, everyone who hinders me is my enemy!" Kazuhiko declared earnestly to Isamu, his unwavering determination manifesting spontaneously.

"!!!!!!"

Upon hearing Kazuhiko's words, even though Isamu was mentally prepared, he was taken aback beyond measure.

The clan head of the Uzumaki clan not only possessed extraordinary insight but also had his own convictions, and his spirit was truly exceptional!

Isamu found himself astounded by the aura emanating from Kazuhiko. To be honest, this aura seemed even more formidable than that of his own father, Senju Hashirama.

If indeed achieved by him, it would be an unprecedented feat, surpassing even his father's accomplishments.

As far as he knew, his father lacked a long-term vision before attaining the strength to dominate the ninja world. Most of the time, Hashirama was propelled forward by circumstances, and it could even be said that he was somewhat passive.

This was a realization his father had shared with him during his youth.

Thus, Isamu understood that his father's success was not as strategically planned as the world believed.

Yet, standing before him was a young man—potentially his future son-in-law—who had orchestrated everything from the very beginning.

It was like a game of chess: one player reacting hastily, while the other meticulously planned each move.

Kazuhiko had an overarching plan, with every detail carefully mapped out in his mind.

And he was just eleven years old! What a genius! What foresight!

The Uzumaki clan boasted such a clan head, and at this moment, Isamu couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy. Why wasn't such a genius born into the Senju clan?

Even if he didn't ultimately succeed, the spirit, intelligence, and strength displayed by this young man had already surpassed all the ninjas in the current ninja world.

The only concern now for Isamu was that Kazuhiko might attract attention before achieving his goals.

If noticed prematurely, his nephew could become an enemy to the entire ninja world, save for the Uzushiogakure. Even then, that village might become his enemy as well.

Seemingly aware of Isamu's concerns, Kazuhiko calmly stated, "Uncle Isamu, don't worry. So far, I haven't shared my thoughts with anyone. You are the first to know! 

Isamu was quite surprised, "Haven't you informed your clan? 

Kazuhiko shook his head, "No, there are too many prying eyes, and it would inevitably be exposed prematurely. The fewer people who know, the safer it is. I'm not ready to disclose it to them just yet.

"When the time comes, I'll naturally reveal everything to them, but not now..."

"Now, the important question is, Uncle Isamu, are you willing to lead the Senju clan to join me?

"We are currently too weak, and we need like-minded allies to collaboratively establish a new ninja world!"

"This will also facilitate the efficient allocation of resources after the successful establishment of a unified regime."

Upon hearing Kazuhiko's words, Isamu fell silent for a long moment this time.
