Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Contemplation

'The Hyuga clan are rotten wolves.'

'In that era, Senju and Uchiha were the strongest clans in warfare. However, victory and defeat are also determined by the allies of each clan.'

'Uzumaki has always been on good terms with Senju. Moreover, this old man's sister was Hashirama's fiancé. Of course, Uzumaki should ally with Senju.'

'At first, with the Uzumaki-Senju combined, it was enough to overwhelm the Uchiha. Unfortunately, the proud Uchiha could lower their selves-esteem to look for the Kaguya Clan. The war has stagnated again.'

'Later, the clan leader introduced the Hyuga Clan who was on the rise at that time to Senju. Hyuga were always neutral at first, but for some reason they decided to choose a side. Seeing the Hyūga's Doujutsu abilities and their Kekkai Genkai techniques, the Senju chief decided to bind them.'

'Originally, to ensure a close relationship, a marriage alliance would be made. Unfortunately, the Hyuga Clan asked the Senju's women to marry into their house, not the other way around.'

'The Chief Senju firmly refused. How could a stronger clan marry into a weaker clan house? In the end the Senju-Hyuga alliance didn't happen.'

'The time has come for Hashirama's wedding. This old man was chosen as the bridesmaid for his sister. The day that was thought to be a good day, turned out to be bad.'

'Uchiha and Kaguya saw our guard down. Unexpectedly, they quickly attacked the Uzumaki Clan headquarters. This plan is too perfect for Uzumaki to be overwhelmed.'

'Senju who heard the news came late. This old man followed them and could only be stunned to see the house that was there yesterday turned into rubble.'

'This old man found his father turned into a cold corpse as well. This old man's heart ached terribly. It's just that, because he couldn't find his eldest brother's body, this old man has hope that his brother is still alive out there.'

'The human heart sure is ruthless. Senju who knows that Uzumaki is finished, chooses to compromise with Hyuga.'

'This time, Hyuga isn't asking for marriage, but a veto. Whatever war strategy is proposed, if Hyuga doesn't agree then it's cancelled. The surprised thing was Senju agreed.'

’This old man can only grit his teeth hatefully. Even Uzumaki during the alliance must obey the Senju rules. However, Hyuga managed to be equal? The old man in the past couldn't understand. '

'Since the war is no longer involving the Uzumaki, this old man can't stay at Senju's house as a lonely brother-in-law. This old man decided to find the remains of the clan members and ask them what really happened.'

'Long story short, after so many years, this old man found the descendant of his eldest brother. He told this kid before his death that Hyuga was working as a double spy.'

'They are neutral so they can relate well with the Senju and Uchiha camps. Then, Madara seemed to offer something to Hyuga that made them greedy. Uzumaki is just unlucky to be the chip of the bargain.'

'Before, this old man thought Hashirama was the hope for revenge on the Uchiha and Hyuga. For Kaguya? This clan is too battle maniac and almost been wiped out when this old man ventured out.'

'However, the old man's last light of hope was extinguished when he saw the Senju reconcile with the Uchiha and form Konoha Village.'

'In that case, revenge can only depend on oneself. This old man doesn't even want to involve his sister.'

'Long story short, this old man joined as the pioneer of the Anbu and was given the code name Black Cover.'

'Knowing that Madara and Hashirama had fought a life and death battle, this old man's heart rejoiced. Unfortunately, they both died.'

'However, the situation is still optimistic, because the leadership did not go to the Uchiha. Fortunately, Tobirama has an ideology that opposes the Uchiha. This old man is happy to be his right-hand man.'

'Unfortunately, even though Tobirama is against the Uchiha, he is very close to the Hyuga. This old man can only wait for the right moment to stretch their relationship.'

'Once upon a time, this old man came across a unique piece of data. Senju people die more often when paired with the Hyuga's members. Even though there is no real proof, this old man is sure that the Senju-Hyuga relationship will be strained.'

'However, it's as if the gods don't want to see the success of this old man. Before the data was delivered, Tobirama was surrounded by Kinkaku and Ginkaku, his fate is unknown.'

'Telling this to the other Senju won't cause a ripple. The current number of Senju is too few to be called a super clan of the past.'

'Unexpectedly, leadership fell to Hiruzen Sarutobi. The Sarutobi clan is only a second-rate clan. Their prestige isn't even as strong as the Hyuga's.'

'Strange, at this point Hyuga or Uchiha should be able to seize the leadership. Why are they watching?'

'After a bit of investigation and contemplation, this old man finally came to a conclusion. Uchiha felt their leadership time was not right. Many second class Clans like Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Inuzuka, Aburame and others think Madara is the trouble maker.'

'Uchiha decided to build their image first on these second rate clans.'

'Meanwhile for Hyuga, they can also analyze Uchiha's mind. It's better to have a second-rate clan test the Uchiha's patience than to use oneself as bait.'

'Seeing this fake peace, the old man felt suffocated. What this old man needs is for Hyuga or Uchiha to play hard, not pretend to be nice.'

'Hiruzen's reign was boring for this old man. It's as if the whole village is united against a foreign enemy.'

'At a certain time, the old man noticed that Hiruzen had a rival who was his comrade-in-arms. That person is Danzo Shimura.'

'This old man offered him a deal. The old man would give him power in the shadows to get rid of Hiruzen's influence. The condition is that in the future when Danzo becomes Hokage, the Uchiha and Hyuga clans must be wiped out from the world. After all, this old man was one of the surviving seniors in the earliest Anbu generation. Many fellow pioneers are more loyal to old men than Hiruzen.'

'Danzo agreed to the terms. On that day, Anbu Root was formed.'

'One day, this old man's sister had already reached the end of her life. This is sad and terrible news. After all, the old man's sister was the Kyubi's Jinchuriki. If she dies without any new Jinchuriki, Kyubi can go berserk.'

'The old man believes that no shinobi is strong enough to withstand the Kyubi's rampage except for Hashirama and Madara. Left with no choice, this old man volunteered to look for the remaining Uzumaki's descendants.'

'This old man kidnapped a little girl named Kushina. Of course, it was subtle kidnapping. Knowing that the old man was the son of the last Uzumaki leader, Kushina reluctantly agreed to become the Kyubi's Jinchuriki.'

'Originally, the old man wanted to say that the enemies of the Uzumaki Clan were Hyuga and Uchiha. However, seeing this girl's innocent gaze, the old man doesn't want hatred to defile those eyes.'

'The day the Kyubi switched vessels was the day this old man doubted his entire life. Sister's last words were 'why don't you live your life without hatred?''

'This old man feels his whole life is meaningless. The old man has been trying to hide his self-hatred, but sister still guessed it right.'

'That day, Black Cover decided to take on a suicide mission. This old man faked his death on a mission, and lived as a traveler for the rest of his life. The old man initially decided to make peace with himself.'

'It's just that Mugen Tsukoyomi's dream really stirred up the hatred that was buried deep in this old man's heart.'

'Kid, even if you have the bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan, you don't have to avenge the past. This old man just wants you to pass this story on to your future descendants so they know how fickle the human heart is.'

'As a token of farewell, this old man slipped in this little notebook a cipher where the legacy of our Uzumaki Clan lies.'
