"Grandpa, why are you sleeping here?"
Tsunade nudged Hashirama Senju's arm.
Hashirama Senju groggily got up.
[He yawned.]
"Are you asleep?"
"I thought I wouldn't be sleepy if I were dead!"
Tsunade: "..."
She doesn't know if it will make her sleepy.
But she had done a rough calculation.
My second grandfather hadn't had a break for at least half a month.
[Hahaha~]
Hashirama Senju glanced around.
[Since he didn't find Tobirama Senju, he roughly knew what was going on.]
After an awkward laugh, he asked, "What's wrong, Tsuna?"
"Grandpa, Second Grandpa should have already passed away."
"Two people have arrived."
"Someone whose identity is unknown, but whose chakra reserves are terrifying."
"Another one is Uchiha Itachi, who personally killed his own clansman."
"Sasuke has already rushed over there."
[Upon hearing this.]
Hashirama Senju immediately stood up.
"Such a good thing?!"
"I thought that guy, the one I couldn't explain to Madara, wouldn't dare come back!"
"Let's go, let's go!!!"
[Hashirama Senju instantly activates Sage Mode.]
However.
[Just about to leave.]
But Tsunade stopped her.
"Grandpa, I'm planning to go see it too."
"Hmm...the little ones want to see it too."
"I have to protect them."
"Then I..." Hashirama Senju suddenly realized something was wrong.
But it was too late.
"But this place can't be left unattended."
"It's alright, I've already given the orders."
"Grandpa, you can go back to sleep."
"If there's a problem, the Anbu will come looking for you directly."
[That's all.]
Tsunade didn't give Hashirama Senju a chance to speak.
[He instantly disappeared.]
Hashirama Senju: "..."
[No!]
[Click click click—]
The thought had just formed in my mind.
Hashirama Senju's body had already reacted.
Several wooden stakes grew out from behind.
Immediately afterwards, the wooden stake rapidly transformed into the likeness of Hashirama Senju at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Just leave the wooden clones behind, hahaha~"
The wooden clones looked at him with resentment.
Hashirama Senju ignored it all and turned to run.
[A brothers' showdown?]
[It's definitely worth watching!]
Moreover, to prevent any accidents, this former First Hokage, the God of Shinobi, must be present to protect the newly sprouted buds!
[Just stepped out.]
Hashirama Senju realized what was happening immediately.
[He quickly clapped his hands.]
*Snap*
["Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique!"]
[The wooden clones of Hashirama Senju inside the secret chamber: "..."]
Everyone: "..."
Tobirama Senju: "My brother has indeed changed a lot."
Uchiha Madara: Hmph!
Madara Uchiha: It's very big.
Uchiha Izuna: At least it's getting better, isn't it?
Madara Uchiha: I don't know.
Hashirama Senju: Hahaha~
...
"The Uchiha clan is inherently evil."
"But even the most evil."
"Even that's not as evil as this."
Even a tiger won't eat its cubs.
"Regardless of the reason."
"He's even capable of harming his own clan."
"They spared no one, not even women and children."
"The evil of Itachi Uchiha is not the evil of the Uchiha clan, but the evil of an innate evil seed."
Tobirama Senju walked towards the direction he had sensed.
He's not in a hurry, because he's not the main character.
[Besides, with Naruto around, he didn't think that his lateness would cause any trouble for that pretentious Uchiha brat.]
[Even if they both have the Mangekyou Sharingan, it's impossible for one to be instantly defeated, right?]
Tobirama Senju glanced at Orochimaru, who was standing beside him.
"Have you seen that evil seed?"
Orochimaru smiled faintly.
"I've met him."
"However, due to some special reasons, mine was instantly outclassed by it."
[Upon hearing this.]
Tobirama Senju nodded.
"Good idea."
"But have you ever thought about this?"
"Are they all independent individuals?"
Orochimaru was stunned for a moment.
[He looked at Tobirama Senju with some disbelief.]
"I didn't expect that, besides Naruto, the Second Hokage also recognized it at a glance."
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It's a waste to send you to handle official business."
Tobirama Senju rolled his eyes at her.
["I know."]
"Naruto knows too."
"He's standing up for Tsuna."
"Then, is it possible that Tsunade is helping Naruto get revenge?" Orochimaru asked with a half-smile.
Tobirama Senju: "..."
[to be honest. ]
[Tobirama Senju still found it somewhat hard to accept that his own granddaughter was messing around with such a young and inexperienced person.]
It's unbelievable just thinking about it.
But...regardless of age.
They are all my own granddaughters.
How could there not be selfish motives?
Especially after that day's trial.
[Tobirama Senju felt that it wasn't just his older brother who had found his past self.]
Even he himself has changed a lot.
At least, they're thinking about the problem.
[It's no longer about looking at the big picture.]
And this.
This also represents...
Neither he nor Hashirama Senju could become Hokage.
Of course, the current Hokage is different from the previous Hokage.
Not to mention the first, second, and fourth generations, and the newly appointed fifth generation.
Even at its worst, it could never be as bad as the third generation.
[Actually, even the worst third-generation heir would be acceptable.]
[Konoha has a deep foundation.]
[I can easily manage.]
And the result...?
[Even after the Third Hokage served for so many years and acted so recklessly, Konoha still managed to rise again.]
[It relies on the foundation of the various ninja clans.]
Unfortunately, someone else might not have fared this well.
Even Shimura Danzo.
That is evil to the very end.
Use it and then throw it away.
[Still better than Hiruzen Sarutobi being Hokage.]
This is what Tobirama Senju was thinking.
Therefore, when answering Danzo Shimura's question at that time...
In reality, he felt a tiny bit of regret.
[At least. ]
Those promising young talents won't die so easily.
If Shimura Danzo had become Hokage, things would definitely not be like this now.
Hiruzen Sarutobi played a significant role in its transformation into its current form.
[This caused Danzo Shimura to no longer be able to suppress the evil within him.]
"That's absolutely true."
"Speaking of which, I should thank you, little snake. If you hadn't reincarnated us, we'd probably still be dying with our eyes wide open in disbelief."
At this moment.
[Hashirama Senju's voice rang out.]
Orochimaru's eye twitched.
[It's a small snake again...]
"It's my honor, First Generation."
[Hahaha~]
Hashirama Senju laughed heartily.
[Then he frowned and said:]
"Who trained that guy?"
