Hashirama Reborn

As night fell, the Senju clan's territory seemed to be covered by a thick layer of black silk. It was so quiet that the only sound could be heard was the leaves swaying gently in the breeze in the distance.

Having lost all his money, Hashirama walked home dejectedly. Looking at the dark house in front of him, he pushed the door open carefully, fearing that he would disturb his family's rest.

Just as Hashirama was about to close the door and go back to his room to rest, a calm and deep voice suddenly came from behind him: "I'm back." This voice seemed to come out of the darkness, with a bit of majesty and unquestionable.

!

Hashirama was startled and turned around suddenly, only to see his father standing quietly in the darkness in the corner of the room. He didn't know how long he had been there. The moonlight poured in through the gaps in the window, shining on the calm and resolute face of the Thousand-Armed Buddha. His dark eyes flashed with deep light, and his whole body exuded a biting coldness.

Hashirama touched his nose guiltily and stammered: Father, father, you haven't rested yet.

Thousand-Handed Buddha said lightly: Where have you been? Why are you back so late?

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Hashirama's forehead, his eyes were erratic, and he tried hard to hide his inner panic, fearing that his father would find out that he was gambling. He took a few deep breaths and replied calmly: ...I just went to practice nearby.

Senju Buddha sneered twice, his voice full of doubt: Really? I thought you went to find Uchiha.

!

When Senju Hashirama heard this, he was shocked and looked at his father with wide eyes. There was a cold light in Senju Hashirama's eyes, as sharp as a knife, as if he could see through his heart.

Seeing his eldest son's shocked but unrefutable attitude, the veins in Senju Buddha's body bulged, and he suddenly grabbed the scroll in his hand and threw it hard. Hashirama did not move, nor did he dare to move, and let the scroll hit him hard, making a slight sound and then falling to the ground with a gurgle.

……

Hashirama lowered his head, and with the help of the moonlight, his good eyesight allowed him to clearly see what was written on the unfolded scroll: "The Uchiha claimed that the two clans had jointly discovered the oil well in the Rain Country. The Daimyo requested that the representatives of the two clans and the envoys go to the Rain Country as soon as possible to deal with the matter.

Senju Butsuma's face was gloomy. He clenched his fists and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth: Hashirama, aren't you going to explain why Uchiha knew about the oil well and what did you give Uchiha.

After a moment of silence, Hashirama looked up at the gloomy face of Senju Butsuma, took a deep breath, and replied calmly: It's the fuel.

……

Thousand-armed Buddha took a deep breath and slowly stood up. His figure looked unusually tall in the dark room. Although his steps were slow, each step seemed to carry the force of thunder. The chakra fluctuated with his steps, filling the whole room with a tense atmosphere.

Hashirama did not flinch, and calmly watched his father's tall figure appear in front of him. A strong wind suddenly blew, and with a bang, the next second, Hashirama's body slammed heavily against the door. The door made a hoarse whine and was about to collapse.

Cough

Hashirama coughed twice, stood up shakily, and looked at his father calmly. Seeing this, Senju Butsuma became even more furious. He growled, "What on earth are you thinking, Hashirama! With your Wood Release ability, it's not a problem to sneak out of the Rain Country. Why did you deliberately let Uchiha intervene? You even gave fuel as a reward. Are you afraid that Uchiha will not suspect that you found the fuel well? !

Look at the good things you have done. Because of your stupidity, the benefits of the Senju are now forced to be divided half with the Uchiha. Have you ever thought about what the elders would think if the clan knew about this? What would the clan members think!

Thousand-Handed Buddha paused in his roar, and looking at his eldest son’s still expressionless face, he suddenly widened his eyes and asked in surprise:...Did you do this on purpose?

Hashirama pursed his lips and lowered his eyes silently. Senju Butsuma opened his mouth and spoke in a rare daze: Are you crazy? Uchiha is our enemy.

Upon hearing this, Hashirama clenched his fists and said unhappily: We don't have to be enemies! We have already carried out cooperative missions. Facts have proved that as long as the two tribes have more contact and more cooperation, we don't have to be hostile to each other!

What nonsense are you talking about!

Senju Butsuma's anger was rekindled, and he threw another punch, hitting Hashirama hard. Hashirama fell to the ground in embarrassment, but he still asked in confusion: Father, we are obviously cooperating with the puppet master, why don't Uchiha...

To shut up!

Senju Butsuma roared in a low voice, interrupting Hashirama's words. He looked at his eldest son's indignant face, tried to suppress the anger in his heart and replied: Uchiha is different. They have killed so many of our clansmen and robbed us of so much of our interests. Hashirama, you must remember that Uchiha is the enemy!

Looking at his eldest son's unmoved face, Senju Butsuma grabbed Hashirama's collar and said coldly: Hashirama, you are the hope of the Senju. When you grow up, you must destroy the Uchiha clan and make the Senju the strongest ninja clan. This is what you should consider!

Hashirama looked at his father's face, which looked particularly hideous due to anger, and said stubbornly: No.

The anger in Thousand-Handed Buddha's mind paused, he looked at his eldest son in a daze and murmured: What did you say?

Hashirama looked directly into his father's stern face and said firmly: Father, I want to form an alliance with the Uchiha and build a peaceful world.

……

The anger on Senju Hashirama's face disappeared, replaced by a deep disappointment and a faint murderous intent. His voice without a trace of emotion sounded: Senju Hashirama, do you know what you are saying?

Hashirama nodded and was about to speak when Senju Butsuma suddenly swung his fist, and the fist wrapped in chakra aura hit Hashirama hard in the face.

boom!

This punch was harder and heavier than any previous one. Hashirama's body was like being hit by a huge hammer. It broke through the gate and flew into the yard.

Hashirama fell heavily to the ground, curled up and spat out a mouthful of blood, which was mixed with a bloody tooth. He felt a burning pain on his cheek, as if it was burned by flames. He shook his dizzy head and struggled to stand up.

Senju Fushima looked at the blood on his eldest son's face, and a trace of regret flashed through his mind, but he quickly suppressed this emotion and said coldly: Senju Hashirama, how long will you be childish? Do you think your ideas are great? Do you think you can change the hatred between the two clans?

I tell you, that's impossible! The Uchiha clan is our enemy, and will always be! You must remember that you are the hope of the Senju clan, and your responsibility is to protect the clan members, eliminate the enemy, and lead the Senju clan to become the strongest ninja clan!
