Hashirama Reborn

Facing the gazes of Uchiha Madara and Uzumaki Mito, Hashirama felt suffocated. He didn't know the reason, but he had a hunch that this was a critical moment and he had to think clearly before answering!

After hesitating for a long time, Hashirama explained guiltily: Madara, this is my distant cousin, Mito, I came here to play with her.

While speaking, he observed Uchiha Madara's reaction and found that the other party was still expressionless. Hashirama hurriedly continued to emphasize: Mito is just my sister, she has never been to the Fire Country, I really just accompanied her here to play, Madara, please don't get me wrong!

Before Uchiha Madara could speak, Uzumaki Mito became unhappy. She tugged at Hashirama's clothes with an unhappy look on her face, frowned and asked: Cousin, you haven't said who he is yet!

Hashirama paused awkwardly, glanced at Uchiha Madara furtively a few times, then an idea suddenly occurred to him, pointing at a jewelry vendor not far away and shouted: Ah, Mito, there are other beautiful jewelry over there, I think they are especially suitable for you, you should go over and take a look!

Mito's face turned dark and he gritted his teeth and said: Senju Hashirama, don't try to change the subject, you haven't said who he is yet!

Uchiha Madara frowned, looked at the spoiled red-haired girl in front of him with displeasure, and said coldly: Woman, didn’t anyone tell you not to reveal your last name in public?

Mito's face turned pale, and he glanced at Hashirama next to him with a guilty look, and said unyieldingly: Who are you? You don't need to mind your own business, cousin Hashirama, tell him who he is, if you don't tell me, I will go back and tell Uncle Fukuma!

Come on, Mito!

Seeing Hashirama's panicked and flustered look, Mito instantly gained confidence, raised his head and said proudly: Then tell me who he is, cousin Hashirama, you haven't told me yet, could it be...

Hashirama broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't let others know about his relationship with Madara for now, but if he didn't say it, Mito might tell his father in anger and discover his relationship with Madara.

What should I do? Hashirama anxiously scratched his smooth long hair, not knowing how to explain for a moment. Mito looked at the gloomy black-haired boy in front of him provocatively, walked in front of Hashirama with his hands behind his back, looked at Hashirama Senju with a guilty look, and smiled slyly: Cousin, if you don’t want Uncle Fukuma to know, you must tell me who he is, and as a price for keeping it secret, you have to take me out to play!

This... Hashirama frowned and said hesitantly: Mito, you can't...

You are so nagging, cousin Hashirama. Mito stamped her feet and said dissatisfiedly: If you plan to refuse, I will go back and tell Uncle Furuka. If he knows that you are interacting with outsiders, he will definitely be very angry!

Hashirama hurriedly tried to stop him: No no no, please, Mito, I I I... Feeling Hashirama's hesitation, Mito's eyes flashed with joy, and she happily hugged Hashirama's arm, and asked in a tender voice: Then promise me~

Uchiha Madara, who was standing by, watched this scene and felt an inexplicable anger burning in his heart, "This woman actually dared to threaten Hashirama." Without thinking any more, he walked over quickly. Before the red-haired girl could react, Uchiha Madara reached out and grabbed her shoulders, then leaned close to her cheek.

Mito was startled. Looking at the gloomy face and deep black eyes in front of him, his hair stood on end. He tensed his body and wanted to retreat, but found that he couldn't move at all. He called out anxiously: Cousin, save me... Before he could finish his words, the black eyes in front of him turned scarlet in an instant, and all the words stopped. Mito only felt a sharp pain in his head, and his body uncontrollably took two steps back.

Hashirama hurriedly supported Mito, looked at Uchiha Madara opposite him in shock, frowned and whispered: What are you doing, Madara?

Uchiha Madara curled up a sarcastic smile and sneered: What, are you afraid that I will hurt her?

Hashirama approached Uchiha Madara who was looking puzzled and whispered: What are you talking about? We are on the street, why are you showing your Sharingan directly? What if the enemy finds out!

Uchiha Madara was stunned, looking at Hashirama in disbelief who had a worried look on his face, and replied haltingly: Wh...what?

Hashirama sighed helplessly. Madara really didn't know how to protect himself. He was about to emphasize again that one must take care to protect oneself when going out, when Mito beside him suddenly exclaimed and raised his hand happily: "Cousin, look, isn't this bracelet pretty?"

Hashirama was stunned and quickly turned to look at his cousin, and found that Mito in front of him had completely lost his aggressive attitude. Not only did he not ask about Madara's identity again, but he asked for his opinion with a look of surprise, as if the meeting with Madara had never happened.

Never happened?

Hashirama's heart moved, and he immediately understood everything. It turned out that Madara had cast an illusion on Mito just now. Was he willing to expose himself to danger just to avoid making things difficult for me?

Woohoo, Madara, you are indeed a man of affection and righteousness!

Seeing Senju Hashirama looking at him with a disgusting look, Uchiha Madara shuddered and couldn't help but say: Hey, that's enough, Hashirama...

Cousin, what are you doing? Answer me quickly. Uzumaki Mito gave his cousin an unhappy look and ignored the black-haired boy next to him who obviously knew his cousin.

Logically speaking, the other party's image and aura should never be ignored, but Uzumaki Mito acted as if he didn't see this strange boy and asked his cousin directly.

Hashirama subconsciously glanced at Uchiha Madara next to him. For some reason, he felt particularly guilty and uncomfortable. In response to Mito's dissatisfied glare, he replied in a low voice: Good... looks good.

After getting recognition from others, Mito smiled and suddenly said: "Oh, there are many beautiful jewelry over there, cousin Hashirama, I will go and have a look, you have to wait for me!" After saying that, without waiting for the other party to reply, he hurried away.

After watching Mito run to a nearby place to pick out jewelry, Hashirama finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to face Uchiha Madara. He was about to continue the previous topic, but found that the other party was looking at him with a strange look.

Hey, Madara, you look so weird, what's wrong?

Uchiha Madara withdrew his gaze and was silent for a long time before he spoke without any emotion: Hashirama, aren't you afraid that I took the opportunity to hurt her?

Hashirama smiled, put his arm around the black-haired boy's shoulders, pulled him to his side, and regardless of the suddenly tense body beside him, he said with a grin: You wouldn't do those things, I know, Madara is a principled and gentle man.

He is my most trusted friend.

Uchiha Madara looked at the black-haired Senju with bright eyes beside him and murmured in a low voice:...What, gentleness and such, it's you, Hashirama.
