Lu Wang did a good deed but wasn't born into a good life. She closed her eyes and opened them again to find herself reincarnated in the savage Warring States era.
She had five older brothers, all doting on their little sister, but they would all die until only one was left. And then that last one would go and become a great villain.
What a hopeless situation~
She spent her days freeloading and waiting to die until she was fifteen, when her father said, “Go to the battlefield or get married and have children. Pick one.”
She chose death... Just kidding. A strategic retreat it is.
You can't think in extremes. Neither becoming a workaholic nor lying flat is a wise choice, so Lu Wang decided to make an effort to save one of her brothers. If she couldn't save the eldest, she'd save the youngest.
And then it all went wrong.
At the scene of the spectacular disaster, her eldest brother looked utterly defeated. Her eldest brother's best friend, the family's sworn enemy, made himself right at home and rambled on about how spectacularly she'd messed up. From then on, she was bound to Konoha.
Behind them, her eldest brother's best friend's hapless younger brother wore a face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
She remembered his heroic deeds. This was the Second Hokage, a notorious Uchiha-hater. Once he took office, the Uchiha would practically be ready to hold a funeral.
Since there was no escaping this, she decided to try stirring things up and see if she could turn the situation around.
Her efforts included, but were not limited to, causing trouble, stirring up a storm, criticizing the Hokage's policies and decisions, and constantly badmouthing the Senju white-haired schemer as sinister, deceitful, and unfit for the job...
All in all, her methods were devious and convoluted, while her goal was simple and straightforward.
Senju Tobirama cornered her and sneered, “You just don't want me to become Hokage.”
Lu Wang: “Hehe.”
Senju Tobirama: “Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna are absolutely out of the question. If you think you're up to it, then you do it.”
Lu Wang: “?”
Senju Tobirama: “My eldest brother is tired. He wants the Second Hokage to be an Uchiha. You know what my support means. I'll wait for your answer.”
Lu Wang: “?!”
When it comes to taking charge, neither your own brother nor your father is as good a choice as yourself. Lu Wang gritted her teeth and went for it.
Looking at the Uchiha, the Senju, and Konoha before her, she wanted to say:
If she couldn't lie flat, then no one else could either!
You awkward, tsundere idiots who only know how to fight and never think, you'd better get ready for a storm!
★ The heroine is a sweet girl who'll stop at nothing to reach her goals. Her CP is Senju Tobirama, the type who always wears a cold expression while doing the laundry (not really).
★ About OOC: The author will portray the characters according to their own interpretation. Well, probably.
Theme: Hard work always pays off
