Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space

To effortlessly destroy the Uzumaki clan and kill Kagami, this is no longer something an ordinary Ninja can achieve.

Mito couldn't help but suspect that Madara was still alive, but how could that be possible?

Back then, Hashirama had killed Madara, and on this point, Mito would not doubt Hashirama.

Perhaps there is someone in the Ninja World secretly causing trouble, and that person is very likely to harbor ill will towards Konoha.

It's fine while she is here, but once she's gone, there will be no one to stop them. This is one of the reasons why Mito was tirelessly trying to nurture Kazuki as much as possible.

"I'm curious about some past events. Reading history can enlighten one. Only by understanding the history of the Sengoku era can one truly appreciate how precious the current peace is."

Kazuki always believed that Hashirama had issues with his mind, but it didn't prevent him from being a great man.

During the Sengoku era, various clans were constantly in turmoil. Some children, even younger than Kazuki is now, had already picked up weapons and killed people.

In this era, although there are Great Ninja Wars, which in some ways are an escalation of battles between clans, it is still quite peaceful in everyday life, and children do not need to directly kill or be killed.

Compared to the Sengoku era, the current Ninja Village era is much better.

As for why a 'one country, one village' system was established instead of a military-political integration, this is due to the limitations of the era.

Even Kazuki had to admit that the vast majority of Ninja are not suitable for governing a country.

The 'one country, one village' system is a compromise to the era.

A person's energy is limited, should those Ninja learn to govern a country?

In Kazuki's view, these things are not set in stone. It's just a matter of whether people are willing to change.

And even if Konoha wants to change and continue to reform this world now, it is powerless. It will still depend on Kazuki in the future.

"Reading history can enlighten one?" Mito nodded thoughtfully.

She found that Kazuki seemed to be getting more and more excellent.

"Back then, the Senju and the Hyuga clan also had quite a few collaborations, but neither the Senju nor the Uzumaki truly understood the Byakugan." Mito then patiently explained.

Orochimaru loved listening to Mito recount various secrets. Compared to the various materials he found himself, sometimes Mito's accounts were more authentic.

At this moment, he asked, "Is it because of the Caged Bird Curse Seal? This should also be a type of Sealing Jutsu. Is it really that difficult to undo?"

He hadn't researched the Caged Bird Curse Seal, but since it was a curse seal, there should be a solution.

Mito was a contemporary master of Sealing Jutsu, could she solve it?

Mito gave Orochimaru an annoyed look and said, "The Hyuga clan's matters are very troublesome. Back then, Tobirama did research the Byakugan, and even asked me to help solve the problem of the Caged Bird Curse Seal. After a brief study, I found that the Caged Bird Curse Seal is almost unsolvable because it acts on the soul."

"Even the soul is confined? Why do they have to do this? Is it possible that the branch house members are not considered their clansmen?" Nawaki and the others felt a shiver.

"It's to prevent others from obtaining the Byakugan."

Kazuki explained softly, "The Byakugan has a huge strategic role. Through the Byakugan, one can see very far, and having the Byakugan is quite convenient."

"Moreover, it is said that the Byakugan does not place a particularly large burden on the user, unlike our Sharingan. If our Sharingan is transplanted, it will cause a huge burden on the user, and they may even die from Chakra depletion caused by the Sharingan."

"Therefore, we don't need a curse seal like the Caged Bird Curse Seal. Furthermore, if someone really steals our Sharingan and we find out, we generally hunt them down relentlessly, to the death."

Jiraiya stroked his chin, but his words drew many disdainful looks.

"In that case, it makes sense, but why still have main and branch families? If it's to protect the Byakugan, then everyone should have it."

Mito shook her head helplessly. She actually liked Jiraiya, but he was simply too naive. Some of his ideas were quite similar to Hashirama's, but his political intelligence was a bit too low.

At least not as good as Tsunade and Orochimaru.

She looked at Kazuki, a glimmer of expectation in her eyes as she asked, "Kazuki, what do you think?"

Kazuki hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Everyone has their own selfish desires. Perhaps at first, the Caged Bird Curse Seal had that intention, but as time progresses, it's hard to guarantee that no one will want to rule others and make others strive for their own benefit."

"Whether it's a clan, a village, or even a country, it's no exception. Power easily corrupts the human heart."

He didn't know if these words would reach Hiruzen, but when facing Mito, he couldn't lie.

Some things are better left unsaid, known only among those who need to know.

Konoha has only been established for a few decades, and it's already starting to have problems, isn't it?

If the Senju clan had not disbanded back then, and the Third Hokage was also a Senju, then future Hokage would become the property of the Senju, until one day, everyone would be dissatisfied with the Senju and the Hokage. At that time, both Konoha and the Senju clan could be finished.

"Very good, Kazuki, I really didn't underestimate you." Mito nodded in satisfaction.

She had thought Kazuki might conceal it, but in fact, Kazuki still spoke it out and even elaborated on it.

It was not in vain that she had taken such good care of him. Perhaps in the future, the Uchiha will indeed produce a Hokage.

"It's thanks to Grandma Mito's excellent guidance." Kazuki quickly credited Mito.

"Hehe!" Mito smiled noncommittally.

"The Hyuga clan cannot allow everyone to be branded with the Caged Bird Curse Seal. That technique back then should only be usable by Byakugan users who don't have the Caged Bird Curse Seal. This can be considered a trump card reserved for the Hyuga clan."

"However, that technique has significant side effects. Before the village was established, when facing situations that the clan found difficult to handle, it was a means of protecting the clan. But with the establishment of Konoha, the situation has changed dramatically."

At this, everyone fell silent. The main family would not go to the battlefield unless absolutely necessary.

The probability of using that technique also decreased significantly. The main family became less and less important, and if this continued, the conflict between the main family and the branch house would constantly intensify.

However, such matters, even the Hokage cannot resolve, let alone them.
