I could relate to the faces in shock. When Sasuna first told us the identity of Leader, the rest of the village council was the same. Even I got surprised, yet because Crow speculated this before, I was able to guess Akatsuki's Leader's identity already. There were some shreds of evidence indicating the masked man's identity as Tobiroma, because of the thing he did, when he saved Orochijosei that day was, still confirming it was something else.

First of all, on that day, Hashirama asked Orochijosei to who her master is, also the Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation was a jutsu Tobirama Senju created. To Orochijosei to use it that day was a big proof of their relation. Because unlike to Original Series, Tobirama left the Fire Village little after the village was founded by Hashirama and Madara, thus Tobirama never recorded this Jutsu to hidden scrolls. To Orochijoesi to learn this jutsu was big proof to her relation with Tobirama. Also another of his creation Flying Thunder God Technique, sealed by Orochijosei and Danzo that day to prevent me from escaping with Sasuna...

To think that Tobirama and Madara switched places...

In original series, Tobirama Senju was the Second Hokage, as well as the Hiruzen, Third Hokage's second teacher. He outcasted the Uchiha from the village and initiated the Uchiha Massacre mediately. He died as a hero, trying to protect the Third Hokage and other 19 younger Fire Village Ninjas.

While Madara Uchiha was Hashirama Senju's sworn enemy. Even though they signed a truce and founded the Fire Village together, Madara always felt like an outsider, after sometime outcasted even by his own Clan, and wanted to avenge it with the death duel against the first Hokage. He lost to Hashirama, but before he fell, he acquired Hashirama's Senju genes.

In this world, because Madara and Hashirama were sworn brothers, and Tobirama didn't like Uchiha, the intrafamilial fight resulted in Tobirama's abandon. After Tobirama left, he somehow founded the Akatsuki, probably ordered by the same force with Madara from original series. Instead of Tobirama, Madara became the Second Hokage and Hiruzen's second teacher. Uchiha's never outcasted and their massacre prevented by me.

But still to think that Tobirama was still alive, and running the Akatsuki left everybody flabbergasted. To think that he was still alive was a little bit absurd, yet everybody believed it anyway.

"It must be his Senju genes kept him alive all this long. Senjus always had longer lifespans," said Tsuchikage, holding his back, with an ugly expression. Senju Clan always associated with nature. They had a strong connection with nature, and even First Hokage's bloodline ability was to create Wood Element, by mixing Ground and Water elements.

"You are the oldest among us, fought against those legends. How strong are they?" asked Mizukage to Tsuchikage, she was one of the youngest, only older than Itachi.

"I am not that old, ah-" exclaimed and stood up angrily Tsuchikage, but his back hurt and couldn't finish his sentence.

"Old man, stop the act and tell us what you know," said Raikage with anger. He was still angry with the events unfolding today. Everyone was shocked beyond belief, yet this was still no cause for them to be enemy of the Akatsuki. All in all, Cloud Village never had Missing Ninja joined to the Akatsuki, and all this seemed personal vendetta.

All other villages wanted to destroy their black sheep, and clean their shame, yet Cloud Village never had missing Ninja joined to the Akatsuki, also Raikage didn't believe Akatsuki would be able to find all those Tailed Beast. Especially the Eight-Tailed Beast, they were searching all this while. It was hidden so secretly, after all these years, all they had vague ideas.

Tsuchikage wanted to refute, but after a while sighed and sat back. "He was strong Ninja on par with Hashirama and Madara. To understand his prowess, all you have to do is look at his creations. He created the cursed jutsu, Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation and Fourth Hokage's signature move Flying Thunder God Technique with many others." said Tsuchikage, nodded to Minato who stood behind Itachi.

"While we thought he was dead, he was interacting with other Missing Ninjas, and God knows how many other Jutsu he created, or he strengthed them." sighed deeper old man with a frown.

I didn't know if I should tell them that most probably Tobirama had Rinnegan. Because first of all, it was a bit inconceivable, second I couldn't say I guessed it with Crow's deductions. After all, I've only seen Tobirama once, and I had no time to check him. So, I wasn't sure if he had Rinnegan or not. But going by past experiences, the same force must have manipulated Tobirama as Madara manipulated in Original Series.

Rinnegan was a bloodline eye ability as Sharingan. It was the bloodline the creator of Ninjutsu, The Sage of the Six Paths wielded. When The Sage of the Six Paths died, he left his eye ability to older son Indra, while his Chakra was left to his younger son Asura. This two brother created their own families, and current Senju is Asura's descendants, while Uchiha is Indra's descendants.

After Ashura named The Sage of the Six Paths' successor, as everyone began to celebrate Asura's success, Indra, jealous of his brother and further manipulated by Black Zetsu, attacked the village and chose to fight Asura for the title of successor while also seeking revenge on his father and brother for denying him his birthright.

It was all manipulated by the bigger force, but the Rinnegan was divided into two as Chakra and Eye bloodline. To acquire a Rinnegan, one had to bring these two bloodline abilities back together. In the original series, in the last fight between Madara and Hashirama, Madara was able to acquire Hashirama's genes. Years after infusing himself with Hashirama's genes and unknowingly mixing Indra's and Asura's chakra, Madara's Sharingan evolved into the Rinnegan.

And in this World, still, it is Crow's guess, Tobirama acquired Sharingan, and awaken Rinnegan. A genius created lots of original jutsu would be unstoppable after awakening Rinnegan. But I didn't have solid proof, thus choose to not tell the others about it yet.

After a few more details, Orochijosei flashed back. Obviously, my edict's effects wore off, and she came back. She looked at me and everyone else, but angry, didn't know what the hell just happened, after a while, she wanted to tell something but Kazekage spoke first.

"When will Tobirama Senju come? It is better to speak with Leader than his foot soldier," asked Kazekage arrogantly. Orochijosei sighed and looked at us.

"It doesn't matter. Give us back Sasuna-chan and Hitomi-kun," said Orochijosei.

"Never!" exclaimed Itachi. Others also nodded.

"Well, doesn't matter at all, even if you give them or not, we will start a war for our cause," said Orochijosei with a smile.

"And what that might be?" asked Mifune, samurai.

"Bring peace to the world," said Orochijosei with a snake voice. "We will gather all tailed beasts and will project the Infinite Tsukuyomi on the moon in order to trap the entire world in a dream, thus saving mankind from destroying itself but also at the price of robbing free will from the entire world," said Orochijosei.
