"Old Man, are you really not planning to get married?"
At the entrance of the mansion, Senju Tobirama waited until his sister-in-law led Tsunade away, then looked at Renye beside him and asked.
"Uncle, who can say for sure about such things?" Renye said, "I have no plans to get married right now."
He had no interest in women, at least not yet encountered a woman he was interested in.
Instead of spending time looking for a partner, it was better to focus on getting stronger and on research.
Before he met a girl he liked, he would most likely remain single his entire life, just like Senju Tobirama.
Renye didn't think he would meet a girl he liked; being single was actually quite good. Every day, besides training and developing poisons, he cooked for this Old Man.
Such a life was already fulfilling enough; there was no need to find a woman to waste time.
"As long as you have your own plans, that's fine." Senju Tobirama nodded slightly, not asking any further questions.
After all, he himself was single, so there was no reason to force Renye.
In his opinion, as long as Renye was happy, whether he got married or not was fine…
This boy had good looks, so why would he be afraid of not finding a partner?
The inherently evil Uchiha Clan, both men and women, were quite good-looking.
With such looks, there was no need to worry about not finding a partner; it mainly depended on whether he himself was willing to look.
Renye nodded perfunctorily, not taking the Old Man's words to heart.
Marriage was impossible; it would be impossible to get married in this lifetime!
Didn't he see that Senju Tobirama hadn't gotten married either?
Since this Old Man wasn't in a hurry, then he didn't need to be in a hurry either.
Senju Tobirama glanced at Renye, then withdrew his gaze.
He could roughly guess Renye's inner thoughts; he most likely had no intention of getting married, just like himself.
In other words—he had no interest in women.
"Boy, don't stay at home all day; go out more when you have time," Senju Tobirama said.
Every time Renye returned to the Village from the battlefield, he either stayed at home or went to the laboratory to develop poisons, or went to the Hokage Office to deliver food to him…
This three-point-line lifestyle had no entertainment whatsoever.
Tobirama worried that if such a life continued for a long time, Renye's mental state would develop problems.
And the most terrifying thing for an Uchiha was to have psychological problems; no one knew what he would do the next second.
Although Renye's surname had been changed to Senju, he was still essentially an evil Uchiha.
The mental illness of the Uchiha Clan was very dangerous!
Tobirama absolutely could not allow the boy he had raised since childhood to develop psychological problems, as he would have to inherit the Hokage position in the future.
Don't look at Renye's lack of interest in the Hokage position, but he had a way to make Renye want to become Hokage.
Ultimately, Renye was still too young.
As long as he guided him a little, he would definitely have the dream of becoming Hokage!
In Konoha Village, a Ninja who didn't want to become Hokage wasn't a good Ninja.
This situation was, of course, caused by the education at the Ninja School.
And Senju Tobirama, the founder of the Ninja School, was naturally the culprit.
Of course, the original intention of doing so was to make Ninja feel a sense of belonging to the Village.
After all, the most important thing for a Ninja Village was cohesion!
Hokage was the goal that everyone pursued.
In recent years, every student who graduated from the Ninja School and became a Ninja had the dream of becoming Hokage in their hearts.
These children would become stronger on the path to pursuing their dreams, gradually becoming the backbone of the Village, and some could even realize their dreams—becoming Hokage!
Anyone who studied diligently at the Ninja School would unconsciously develop the idea of becoming Hokage.
As for why Renye wasn't willing to become Hokage?
Senju Tobirama probably knew the reason; it had to start from his five-point score in cultural subjects…
Such theoretical scores meant he hadn't studied the fire will at all, and he might not even know what the fire will was.
Making Renye Hokage would undoubtedly be like casting pearls before swine.
This boy only saw the endless documents that Hokage had to deal with every day.
But he didn't know what these documents represented…
It included all major and minor affairs in the Village, as well as the planning and development of the Village.
And all of these needed to be handled personally by the Hokage for the Village to develop.
Only by developing the Village could the lives of the villagers be improved, and Ninja have more opportunities to become stronger.
It could be said that Hokage was the key to the Village's strength!
A qualified Hokage was very important to the Village.
Senju Tobirama felt that Renye was very similar to himself in terms of conduct and personality, and believed that his education and guidance could make this boy an excellent Hokage.
"I understand, Uncle."
Renye didn't know that in such a short time, this Old Man had thought so many things in his heart.
During the war, the weak were easily killed on the battlefield.
To become stronger, he trained and developed poisons.
Where was there time to relax?
Now that the war was over, he could indeed relax.
There was still a considerable amount of time before the Second Ninja World War.
If he remembered correctly, Tsunade would have grown up by the time of the Second War, so there were still more than twenty years.
Such a long time would allow him to develop biochemical weapons.
Once deployed on the battlefield, a large number of people would die directly.
And the so-called demigod Hanzou was just a younger brother in front of the poison he developed; he didn't even have the qualifications to cause trouble…
Once Senju Hashirama died, any cat or dog could call themselves a god.
Renye planned to go to the Land of Rain after a while to see what this so-called demigod Hanzou was all about.
…
Senju Tobirama saw Renye agree, and admiration shone in his eyes.
He knew Renye had listened; this boy had always been obedient and never caused anyone to worry.
"Good that you know. I'm going back to the office now."
Tobirama seemed to have thought of something and added with a serious expression, "The documents handled by the Hokage concern the development of the Village and are very important!"
He wanted Renye to know that those mountains of documents were very important and needed to be handled with great care and a lot of time, not just mindlessly approved.
This boy had previously refused to be Hokage, using the endless documents on the desk as an excuse…
It left him momentarily speechless at the time, and only after Renye left did he think of a reason to refute.
Tobirama was saying this now to let him know the importance of a Hokage handling documents.
This boy should know what he was talking about, right?
Thinking so, Senju Tobirama walked straight to the Hokage Office, completely oblivious to the bewildered Renye.
"What was that Old Man mumbling about?"
Renye stared blankly at Senju Tobirama's retreating back, not knowing why that Old Man had said those words just now.
The Hokage handling documents was very important; what did that have to do with him?
If it's important, then handle it seriously yourself! Why tell me all this?
I'm not the Hokage!
This kind of thing should be told to Danzo instead.
Clearly, Senju Tobirama had overthought it…
Renye hadn't understood his hint at all.
