Hashirama Reborn

But you are right.

A smile appeared on Senju Akira's face. He reached out and rubbed Hashirama's long hair, grinning and saying: I don't like what the Uzumaki clan leader did either, but you, my Lord, some things are hard to say openly. Thanks to you, you have expressed what we are thinking.

When Hashirama heard this, he suddenly realized that Senju Akira was not here to blame him, but to support him. The depression in his heart disappeared and he smiled.

Uncle Ming, what do you mean…” Hashirama asked tentatively.

We, the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan, are relatives and allies, and we should help each other. Senju Ming said seriously that although for the sake of harmony between the two clans, sometimes we need to consider the overall situation, but we cannot ignore the safety of the clan members. The Uzumaki clan has been getting more and more excessive in recent years by relying on their kinship. It is not easy for adults to say it directly, but you are a child, and your frankness is exactly what we need.

Your father asked you to come here, probably for this reason, but next time, you need to restrain yourself. You were very outspoken the first time, but if you continue, it will damage the relationship between the two tribes. The Uzumaki tribe leader is a smart man and he already knows the attitude of the Senju. If he wants to resolve this crisis, he will not let the Uzumaki tribe stay out of it.

After hearing this, Hashirama nodded repeatedly. After being rubbed harder by Senju Akira, he happily washed up and had a good rest.

As night fell, the entire Whirlpool Country was enveloped in a peaceful night. Led by the Uzumaki clan members, Hashirama and his companions came to an empty square, which was ablaze with fire and bustling with people. Enthusiastic Uzumaki clan members were singing and dancing around the bonfire, and all around were various delicious seafood and special dishes of the Whirlpool Country, which were filled with aromas that made people salivate.

While Hashirama and his companions were enjoying the food, they started a friendly conversation with the Uzumaki clan members nearby. In the lively atmosphere of the banquet, the Uzumaki clan leader walked towards Hashirama and his companions with a girl.

Uzumaki Ashina patted Hashirama's shoulder and said with a smile: Haha, Hashirama, come come, meet your cousin, Mito, this is your cousin, Hashirama.

Are you Hashirama's cousin?

Hashirama lowered his head following the proud voice, and what came into his sight was a proud girl with beautiful red hair that formed a sharp contrast with her fair skin, making her look even more charming and lovely. She had big, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, rosy lips, and delicate facial features. What was even more rare was that, unlike the gentle image of ordinary girls, Uzumaki Mito behaved in a generous and decent manner, with a confident and proud expression, which made people unable to help but brighten their eyes.

Hashirama was a little dazed. Through the proud girl in front of him, he seemed to see the dignified and gloomy figure from a long time ago, the wife of the first Hokage, Uzumaki Mito.

She was used as a bargaining chip by her own father and became the wife of the first Hokage and the vessel of the Nine-Tails. Thanks to the agreement with herself, she escaped the fate of being a chess piece and became the real power holder of Konoha. After the Uzumaki clan was wiped out, she used her influence to save several escaped Uzumaki children. When she was old, she sealed the Nine-Tails into the only remaining member of the clan in exchange for their survival.

Seeing Mito's proud and confident look now, Hashirama could not associate her with the dignified and deep wife of Hokage in the past. Hashirama was a little dazed. As his former nominal wife, there had never been love between the two of them. They were just strangers who came together for the benefit of the village and the family.

However, Uzumaki Mito was unwilling to be used as a pawn of her father. When they first met, Hashirama was shocked by the hatred hidden in Mito's eyes. Out of sympathy for Mito and his own hidden selfishness, Hashirama took the initiative to find Mito, and the two reached a secret agreement after negotiation.

Hashirama helped Mito break free from the control of the Uzumaki family, allowing her to become the real power holder of Konoha. In exchange, Mito promised Hashirama that the two of them did not have to become a real couple, but only needed to secretly adopt a child as the descendant of Hashirama Senju without telling anyone.

From then on, Konoha had a Hokage wife who held real power, and Hashirama Senju had a beautiful wife and son, and the two of them became a perfect couple who respected each other in the eyes of everyone.

Only occasionally, Hashirama would, with some unspeakable secret thoughts in his mind, bring a plate of tofu sushi to an isolated grave, lean against the nameless tombstone and whisper for a long time until the day dawned. Hashirama once again became Konoha's most reliable Hokage and left. The wind blew gently, leaving only an isolated grave and a plate of long-cooled tofu sushi, witnessing the traces of Hashirama's stay.

Hashirama pulled himself out of his long memories and thought with some surprise, "Without all those calculations and hatred, Mito turned out to be such a bright and proud person."

Feeling the complicated gaze of Hashirama Senju, Uzumaki Mito gritted her teeth unhappily. As the most beloved daughter of the Uzumaki clan leader, she was the brightest pearl in the Land of Uzumaki, and was born to be admired and paid attention to by people around her. But the guy in front of her, who was said to be her cousin, had been in a daze since he saw her. It could be forgiven if he was marveling at her beauty, but there was confusion and surprise in this guy's eyes, but no marvel, and he was completely distracted.

Damn it, you actually dared to be distracted in front of Mito-sama. It’s an insult to my beauty. I will remember you, Senju Hashirama!

Seeing that Hashirama didn't respond for a long time, Senju Akira laughed and patted Hashirama's shoulder, and joked loudly: Hahaha, Mito is getting more and more beautiful, this boy is completely stunned, hey, Hashirama, come back to your senses.

After hearing Senju Ming's explanation, bursts of laughter came from the surroundings, and the originally stagnant atmosphere instantly became lively again. Uzumaki Ashina couldn't help smiling, deliberately coughed twice, and said with satisfaction: Hahaha, don't say that, Ming, Hashirama may just have never met his cousin, and he is a little uncomfortable for a while. During this time, you can let Mito take Hashirama to play together. We are all relatives, so we should get to know each other.

Listening to the teasing around him, Hashirama blushed with embarrassment and tried to explain at a loss. Unfortunately, the mean adults didn't care about the child's explanation and burst into laughter. For a moment, the atmosphere of the banquet was very high and everyone started talking excitedly.

As a cheerful Uzumaki who lives by the sea, Mito has long been accustomed to this kind of teasing. At this moment, at the signal of her father, she calmly approached the blushing Hashirama, bared her teeth in a nasty way, and whispered: Hey, what were you doing just now? Could it be that I am really too beautiful and you were stunned?

what? !

Hashirama looked at Mito, who was smiling and looking mischievous, in bewilderment, and retorted without hesitation.

Nonsense, Ban is the most beautiful!
