QUESTION:- WHAT DO YOU THINK "ITAHI AS BROKEN HERO"ACCORDING TO ME ITS BULLSHIT.I MEAN THIS MAN HAD SHISUI KOTOMATSUKAMI HE COULD HAVE HELPED HIS CLAN .HE DID NOT SEE INNOCENCE IN BABIES OF UCHIHA CLAN AND HE SEE INNOSENCE IN HIS LITTLE BROTHER SASUE WHO BETRAYED THE VILLAGE?

[ANSWER]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Arata walked toward the Ninja Academy, he saw a lot of kids heading the same way. Some were from big clans, others from smaller ones, and many were just civilians walking with their parents.

Arata already knew why so many civilians wanted to join the academy. If they became proper ninjas—even just mid-level—they could raise their status in Konoha. For small clans, it was a chance to gain power and respect. For civilian families, their income could go up, and their name would carry more weight in the village.

While walking, Arata heard whispers behind him.

"Wait… is that Lord Arata?"

"Yeah, I think so," a woman said while holding her daughter's hand. "Didn't you hear? Lord Arata's joining the academy too!"

"Oh my! I hope my daughter ends up in the same class. Who knows… maybe something will happen between them," the lady said with a weird dreamy tone.

Arata rolled his eyes and looked at the girl the woman was talking about.

She looked like a fusion of Jaiko from Doraemon and a potato.

Arata nearly coughed out blood on the spot.

This isn't body shaming, he told himself, this is just raw survival instinct!

Then he overheard more gossip.

"Did you hear? Lord Madara wants Lord Arata to get engaged?"

"What?! With who?"

"I heard it's his niece…"

That made Arata freeze a little. Madara has a niece? Since when? Who is she? He didn't know anything about it, but he pretended like he wasn't listening, keeping his face calm even though he was super curious.

As he reached closer to the academy, more people noticed him.

Parents and clan heads—especially from minor and civilian families—were shocked to see him there.

They had heard about his power.

Some had even seen him helping build the village using Wood Release, growing trees and buildings like it was nothing.

Rumors said he was already on the same level as Hashirama Senju or even Lord Madara.

Some people were amazed. Others… well, some of the women were already imagining romantic drama scenarios, with their daughters as the future "Lady Senju."

Even a few moms shamelessly imagined themselves next to him.

"Arata-niisan! Over here!"

A cheerful voice called out.

Arata turned and saw a young boy with brown hair and a familiar face. He looked a bit like Tobirama, just smaller and less scary.

"Oh, monkey? What are you doing here?" Arata grinned.

That boy was Hiruzen Sarutobi—Tobirama's nephew(SON). In the OG timeline, he'd become the Third Hokage.But in this Time line Naaah ! But right now, he was just a kid waving happily.

"I'm joining the academy too!" Hiruzen said with a smile.

"At first, I didn't wanna come," he scratched his head, "but then Dad said you were joining too, niisan! So I got excited and said yes."

Arata smiled.

"Hah, of course you came. You're sticking to me like a monkey on a banana."

"Hey! Don't call me monkey!" Hiruzen pouted.

Arata laughed.

"Too late. You're Monkey-kun forever now."

Hearing that, Hiruzen looked at Arata and Pouted.

As Arata Continued "Wow, monkey, you've gotten strong these days," he said while ruffling Hiruzen's hair.

Hiruzen grinned and puffed up his chest proudly.

"Yes, Nii-san! I've been training a lot in ninjutsu. Tou-san's been teaching me lately," he said. "Now I can even fight a Jonin for a few minutes… maybe even beat one! Hehehe!"

He said it so politely, like it was no big deal. But Arata raised an eyebrow.

He's only eight… and already this strong?

Arata quietly watched Hiruzen, sensing his chakra and energy. He could tell right away—this kid wasn't bluffing. If Hiruzen went all out, he could definitely fight a Jonin. Maybe even win.

Crazy… even Hiruzen doesn't know how strong he really is, Arata thought.

But now that Arata was thinking about it, it made sense. This era was wild. Ninjas weren't like the chill modern ones. They were built through war.

Jonins now had real battlefield experience—fighting in blood-soaked wars, surviving through pain. This wasn't a peaceful time where you spar for fun. It was all about life or death.

Even the average Jonin of this era could be on par with someone like Kakashi Hatake during the Fourth Shinobi War. That's how high the standard was.

No wonder everyone's getting stronger fast, Arata thought. It's either fight or die. This world doesn't wait for anyone.

He looked at Hiruzen again and patted his shoulder.

"You're doing good, monkey," he said with a small smile. "But don't let it go to your head. You're strong, but you still have a long way to go."

Hiruzen nodded, taking it seriously. "Hai, Nii-san!"
