Hashirama Reborn

Chapter 59 Departure

Three days flew by

It was another morning, the sky suddenly brightened, and the sun slowly rose from the east. The golden light sprinkled on every inch of the Thousand Hands' land, coating everything with a warm and mysterious luster.

Senju Fujian stood at the entrance of the clan's territory with a determined look. Today he would lead his people to the border of the Fire Kingdom to welcome Princess Haruyuki. This princess was not only of noble status, but also the key to the marriage between the Fire Kingdom and the Thunder Kingdom. Her safety carried the fate of the two countries and was related to the future fate of the entire Senju clan. Therefore, Senju Fujian was well aware of the importance of this mission and dared not slack off in the slightest.

Gazing at the team of 50 people in front of him, carefully selected by the elders from the tribe, they were all the best in the tribe, brave and good at fighting, loyal and reliable, and more importantly, they did not have much hatred against the Uchiha. All of them wore black breastplates, carried their own weapons, and quietly waited for the order to set off.

Senju Butsuma stood at the front of the team, his face expressionless but his eyes gleaming with determination. The journey was long, not to mention the possible internal strife between him and the Uchiha, even the ninjas hired by the Wind Country made him feel uneasy. This mission was full of unknown dangers, but he did not back down, instead he became more determined in his belief.

Just looking at his second son who was wearing a mask and ready for battle in the team, Senju Fusuma sighed helplessly in his heart. Time was too short, and the elders had selected not many clansmen with strong combat power and not much hatred with Uchiha, which led to even Tobirama being included. Although Tobirama was considered to be a very strong fighter among children of the same age, this mission was of great importance and he should not have come. Forget it, he should take care of it himself.

Calculating the time in his mind, Thousand-Handed Buddha's expression became serious. He raised his left hand high and said in a deep voice: Let's go!

Yes!

With an order, the team quickly disappeared at the door. Under the leadership of the clan leader, they crossed the woods, climbed over the mountains, and finally arrived at the border of the Fire Kingdom. Gazing through the gaps in the woods, they could see ox carts surrounded by warriors in the distance. Before they got close, a whistling sound was heard. Thousand-armed Buddha's pupils shrank, and he swung his sword with his left hand to knock away all the shurikens that flew over. At the same time, he waved his right hand, and the tribesmen behind him retreated in a well-trained manner, each of them observing their surroundings vigilantly.

There was a rustling sound in the woods, and a group of figures in blue clothes slowly walked out of the woods. They had black hair, red eyes, and slender bodies. They were obviously agile ninjas. After the crowd appeared, they automatically divided into two columns. A familiar figure walked out of it, looking at the old enemy who was on guard opposite with mocking eyes, and said sarcastically: I thought it was a thief from somewhere who dared to come and die, but I didn't expect it was the leader of the Senju clan. For Jijun's safety, the Uchiha people were a little nervous and almost hurt you by mistake. I'm so sorry.

Seeing the old enemy appear, Senju Fujian's hand holding the knife tightened reflexively, and then slowly loosened it after a second. Ignoring the indignant eyes of the tribesmen behind him, Senju Fujian calmly put away his weapon and said: Protecting Jijun's safety is the most important thing, but I didn't expect that without opening the Sharingan, the Uchiha's vision is no different from ours. In order to better protect Jijun, I suggest that the Uchiha clan leader let your tribesmen keep their Sharingan open to avoid accidentally making mistakes and hurting friendly forces.

Seeing Uchiha Tajima's face darkening instantly, Senju Fushima appeared calm on the surface, but in his heart he couldn't help but snorted twice, "Damn Rabbit Eyes, not only did you deliberately give us a warning, but you also dared to mock us. Do you really think I can't hear it? Come on, as if everyone can be sarcastic."

The atmosphere in the woods was somewhat stagnant. Uchiha Tajima looked across with a gloomy face. His eyes lingered on the only white-haired child among the black-haired ones for a while before he spoke tentatively: "Where is Senju Hashirama? Did you not bring that Wood Release Bloodline with you on this mission? Senju Hashirama, are you too confident in yourself, or are you not taking Ji-kun seriously?"

In response to Uchiha Tajima's question, Senju Fusuma's expression did not change. He just said coldly: Don't worry, Uchiha clan leader. Hashirama went out for training a month ago and will not be able to come back in a short time. In order to show my importance to Princess Haruyuki, my second son, Senju Tobirama is here. Tobirama's strength is the strongest among children of the same age and is definitely not worse than that of ordinary adult ninjas.

Uchiha Tajima's expression changed, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Uchiha Madara in the crowd. "If what Senju Butsuma said is true, then how did Izuna's injury heal a few days ago? Madara's expression at that time showed that he was not wrong. It was indeed Senju Hashirama who cured Izuna. This is interesting. Is Senju Butsuma lying and deliberately concealing the existence of Senju Hashirama, or is Senju Hashirama really not back, but learned some method of remote treatment?" Damn, no matter which possibility it is, it is not a good thing for Uchiha. It seems that I still have to ask Madara.

After two brief confrontations, neither Uchiha Tajima nor Senju Fusuma gained any advantage, so they could only lead their tribesmen to pay a visit to Princess Haruyuki with a sour look on their faces.

The samurai responsible for protecting Princess Haruyuki had already noticed the movement in the woods. They were on guard with swords in hand. Seeing the two tribes of ninja slowly walking out, they finally relaxed their guard. When Uchiha Tajima and Senju Butsukan approached, the samurai made way for them, revealing a luxurious ox cart behind them.

After a while, a maid came over from behind, wearing plain and warm clothes. She looked at the two of them with arrogant eyes and said angrily: Why did you come only now? If you delay the trip, you ninjas will not be able to compensate for it no matter how many lives you give!

Listening to the questioning of the maid in front of them, before Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima could frown, a soft pushing and pulling sound was heard, and the door of the ox cart had opened. A beautiful woman appeared behind the door. She was wearing a complicated twelve-piece kimono, with black hair like a waterfall, skin as white as snow, and a pair of almond-shaped eyes drooping, covering up all the sorrow. She held a folding fan in her hand to cover her face at present, and a soft voice sounded: Don't be unreasonable, Chiyo, apologize to the ninja masters quickly.

Ji Jun, but!

Seeing Haruyukihime's disapproving look, Oda Chiyo could only suppress her reluctance and perfunctorily said sorry to the lowly ninjas in front of her.

Senju Butsukan paused, not paying attention to the maid's disdainful apology, but walked forward with Uchiha Tajima and respectfully bowed to the woman on the ox cart. Haruyuki smiled and nodded, saying softly: We will have to trouble Uchiha and Senju for the rest of the journey.

Yes!
