Tobirama listens, catching immediately that this 'warrior' was Yondu himself. Listens to the way he speaks about this honorable clan and their leader. Listens to the way he speaks about that which, presumably, now haunts him. His mistake, and if it weren't for the fact that they'd previously spoken about the importance of protecting and caring for what he believes is the future, the youth, the next generation, he might have harder opinions on what Yondu had done.
Himself, he'd investigate first if someone who left their children all of a sudden wanted them to return back but that's just his skepticism. Though it was clear the other man didn't not because he hadn't thought about it but because he wanted money. A selfish cause. Although it seemed this weighed heavy on the man, though. That he knew the error he'd made. This boy, he imagined, was Yondu's 'boy'.
Its at this point that he realizes that this is not something he's good with -- relating to the latter half of this story. The former? Certainly. Mistakes made. Regrets or lessons learned long after the damage was done. Resentfulness, defensiveness. All things that Tobirama knew well. The desire for affection, though? An exhale falls from his lips. Heavy.
"In the end, you did the right thing." He thinks that the boy and this leader, should the leader find out, would be proud in the sacrifice that was made. That the boy lived. That the 'demon' had been slain. There was something of a pause before he asked, "did you give him favor, or was it the imagination of your crew?"
