Hashirama Reborn

As soon as they returned to the clan, everyone went back home to reunite with their families. Hashirama also planned to rush back home without stopping, but was stopped by Senju Butsuma. Hashirama, come with me to the meeting room. We need to know the details about your Wood Release elder.

Ah! I just got back!

Stop talking nonsense and come on!

Oh.

Seeing his eldest son's dying answer, Senju Butsuma was furious and couldn't help but punch Hashirama on the head. Ah, it hurts. Seeing his son holding his head and crying out in pain, Senju Butsuma finally felt happy. Humph, you little brat, you can happily talk to that Uchiha Madara on the battlefield, and now the clan wants to know about you and you're still impatient. You really deserve a beating!

When the father and son arrived at the meeting hall, in addition to a few elders, Tobirama and Itama were also there. Itama had already woken up, and although his life was not in danger, his left leg was disabled and he could only walk by supporting his leg from then on.

The two brothers were originally talking in a low voice when they suddenly saw Hashirama appear. Itachi wanted to go over and hug his brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, but because of his disabled left leg, he could only be supported by his brother Tobirama as he stood there waiting for his brother to come over. Hashirama seemed not to notice anything unusual about Itachi, and just happily called his brothers' names and rushed over, and soon made Itachi laugh.

Senju Fushima couldn't help but cough twice. Instead of calling back Hashirama, he attracted the attention of several elders. Seeing the three brothers whispering together, they couldn't interrupt them immediately. They could only walk to their own clan leaders and asked: "Clan leader, what is the bloodline of Hashirama? I heard it's called Wood Release? Can he control a wood dragon? How on earth is that...?"

Ahem, ahem, Hashirama, come here and explain it to us clearly!

Senju Butsuma was unable to withstand the bombardment of several elders and could only call his eldest son over to answer. After all, it was not a good idea for Hashirama to explain too much in Shirakawa Village to avoid leaking information. So his understanding of Wood Release came from what Hashirama said to Uchiha on the battlefield last time, and he didn't know the details!

Bathed in the fiery gazes of his father and several elders, Hashirama pondered for a moment, thinking about the information that could be revealed to the clan members without arousing suspicion of knowing too much, and slowly said: I suddenly felt the changes in my body's chakra after waking up from a serious injury. After finding a way to fuse the chakras, my injuries healed, and then I realized that I might have awakened my bloodline limit.

Later, when I encountered danger in Itama, I instinctively used several Wood Release Ninjutsu. First, the defensive wooden wall, followed by the branches that could grow in the flesh and blood, the highly maneuverable wooden dragon, and the wooden clones similar to the shadow clones. As Hashirama explained, the elders around him breathed more and more rapidly, their eyes became more and more fiery, and the eyes they looked at Hashirama were surprisingly bright.

Even though the same thing had happened once before, Hashirama still couldn't stand the eager gazes from his father and the elders, and stammered: I, I thought Wood Release was a ninjutsu that could use up chakra to change the properties and shapes of trees freely. And although it sounds powerful, the corresponding chakra consumption is also very terrifying. With my current chakra, summoning a wood dragon and manipulating it for a short period of time might use up all my chakra. Before Hashirama could finish explaining all the disadvantages, he was interrupted by his brother's exclamation.

So amazing! Hashirama-san, Senju Itama looked at his brother with admiration. The situation was so dangerous at that time, but he didn't expect that Hashirama-san not only saved him, but also awakened such a powerful bloodline!

After Senju Itama spoke, the elders around him also began to speak: Hashirama, are you saying that you instinctively used Wood Release when you rescued Itama?

If it is an instinctive influence, then it may be the power of blood!

Bloodline power? Go look through the ancient books of the tribe and think about why we are called Senzhi Qianshou? This name sounds like it has something to do with wood?!

Could it be that the Senju clan had a precedent of awakening Wood Release a long time ago? That's why they named it Mori, but now it's too long ago and the inheritance has been cut off. Doesn't that mean that besides Hashirama, other Senju clan members also have the possibility of awakening Wood Release? !

But in all these years, no one in the clan has ever awakened Wood Release? Is there any very strict condition for awakening? Maybe one has to be on the verge of death?

That's not right. Haven't many Senju clan members been on the verge of death on the battlefield over the years? If being on the verge of death could awaken Wood Release, the Senju clan would have been full of Wood Release!

What could be the reason? Could it be that only the bloodline of the clan leader could awaken? But Wajian didn't have any...

enough!

Hashirama angrily interrupted the elders' discussion. He didn't expect that his words would make the elders pay attention to the origin of the Senju clan again. Just as they guessed, the Senju bloodline was indeed related to the awakening of Wood Release, but the elders' guesses would eventually lead them to suspect that it was his father's bloodline that might be able to awaken Wood Release. If according to their understanding, in order to obtain a powerful bloodline, they might deliberately put Tobirama and Itama in danger to verify their point of view. This was definitely not what Hashirama wanted to see.

After all, no one knows it better than himself. The reason why he can awaken Wood Release is only due to the combination of Ashura's chakra and the Thousand Hands bloodline. Both are indispensable. In this world, no one else can possess Wood Release except himself. Alas, that's not right. If Madara devours his flesh and blood, it seems that he can also awaken Wood Release?

Hashirama's angry rebuke made the elders who were speaking passionately look at each other in bewilderment. If it were in the past, they might have been angry that their conversation was interrupted by the juniors, but Hashirama was now the cherished bloodline holder of the Senju clan, and his status in the clan was no longer as simple as the clan leader's son. After all, the clan leader had several children, but the precious Wood Release bloodline was only passed down to one person, Hashirama Senju. They had to pay attention to Hashirama's opinion.

Feeling the stagnant atmosphere in the meeting room, the Great Elder slowly stepped forward to smooth things over and said: Okay, okay, calm down. Letting your people risk their lives for an uncertain reason is not something an elder of the Thousand Hands should do!

Instead of tracing the cause of awakening, it is better to explore the potential of this bloodline. Hashirama just said that although Wood Release is very powerful, it consumes a lot of chakra. It happens that this mission is over, so let Hashirama stay in the clan and practice chakra so that he can use Wood Release better in the future.

As for the Shadow Clone Technique developed by Tobirama, I heard that it also played a huge role in this mission, but the side effects were also obvious. Even with Senju's physique, the tribesmen who used the Shadow Clone had to rest for three days before they could use it again.

Long before you came back, Tobirama mentioned this to me. His suggestion is that before the shadow clone is perfected, not all tribesmen should learn it for the time being. Some disabled tribesmen can be selected from the tribe to specialize in practicing the shadow clone technique, and use the shadow clone to complete intelligence collection and some suicide attacks. This will not delay everyone's usual tasks, but also reduce the pressure on intelligence personnel and allow those tribesmen who cannot go out on missions to have a new way of life.

This mission was also thanks to Itama, who used the Shadow Clone Technique to successfully divert Uchiha's attention, buying time for the village members and Hashirama to recover. Finally, he was able to work together with the clan leader to drive away Uchiha in one fell swoop and complete the mission.

Chief, I think Tobirama's idea is very good. As Tobirama perfects the Shadow Clone Technique, more and more tribesmen will need to learn it. Itachi happens that Itachi is very proficient in the use of the Shadow Clone Technique, so I suggest that We let Itachi stay in the tribe and be responsible for training the tribesmen who need to learn the Shadow Clone Technique.

I have discussed this matter with several elders. We old guys have no objection and are just waiting for you, clan leader, to come back and make a decision so that we can notify the clan members to implement it.

At this point, the Great Elder couldn't help but sigh sincerely: Clan leader, these boys in your family are extraordinary. They are the hope of the Senju clan in the future. We old guys are old, and although what we say sometimes is a little unpleasant to the ear, we are all thinking about the future of the Senju clan.

Qianshou Fujian watched as several elders nodded in agreement with Qianshou Banjian's decision to stay in the clan in the future at the signal of the great elder. After a long silence, he finally smiled slowly.
