Facing the shocked Senju Hashirama, Shen Yue's heart was in a mess. The reason was simple. She also felt the closeness that Hashirama just said was closer than blood.

This feeling of closeness originated from the echo of the soul, and it was making a huge roar in the flesh and blood. This feeling was very wonderful. The world in Shen Yue's eyes seemed to bloom with huge flowers at this moment, and everything was shining in her heart.

Like being immersed in the sweet and dark amniotic fluid, under this dreamy feeling, her consciousness sank uncontrollably until it reached the deepest part of the soul.

In a trance, she saw a desolate and lonely land, like a silent seabed, isolated from all light and hope.

This dark and quiet space is Shen Yue's sea of ​​consciousness. Here, a small sapling is firmly rooted here.

Before she was named Shen Yue, its seeds had already been stationed there, growing with her, and when she was born, its buds also broke through the ground. It can be said that this sapling is with her life.

Looking at the entire Naruto, there is only one such magical plant, that is the alien brought by Kaguya Otsutsuki from outside the planet, the origin of all chakras, the source of all things - the sacred tree!

When Shen Yue first discovered the existence of the sacred tree, she was very excited and thought that her golden finger as a time traveler had finally arrived, but soon, she found that this damn plant was of no use at all except for bringing her countless troubles!

The growth of the sacred tree requires the supply of chakra. Before Shen Yue could extract chakra on her own, she could only instinctively seek nutrition from the mother body, but the sacred tree, which was just a seed at the time, already had an almost infinite appetite. The chakra of Taohua and Huohe was directly sucked out, and even its own vitality was being extracted by the insatiable seeds!

If Uchiha Madara had not appeared in time, the final outcome of the Shenyue family would probably be that they would die of exhaustion after all the vitality was extracted from the seeds of the sacred tree, and Shenyue would have the honor of becoming the first time traveler in history to die in the womb.

In fact, until the sacred tree grew into the current sapling, Madara, Taohua and Huohe had been supplying chakra to Shenyue. It can be said that it is a miracle that she can grow steadily to this size now.

In addition to absorbing all the chakra of her and the people around her, the sapling of the sacred tree did not bring any benefits to Shenyue. Logically speaking, such a large plant, which has a slight relationship with Ashura and Senju Hashirama, should at least have Wood Release, right? However, Shenyue despaired and found that no matter how she tossed her chakra, whether it was the plants growing in her consciousness or in the ground, they all ignored her completely.

And this is exactly the mental journey that every Senju clan member except Hashirama must go through.

The Senju clan's enthusiasm for Wood Release has reached a crazy level. They really want to replicate a second Wood Release at all costs. However, Wood Release has only been used by Hashirama and people who have Hashirama's cells implanted in them. Hashirama's son, grandchildren and granddaughters cannot use Wood Release, let alone others.

Although Shenyue can barely be considered half a Senju, she is not destined to learn Wood Release. In this era, only Senju Hashirama has Ashura Chakra.

Since Wood Release is not feasible, it is also possible to be a chakra battery like the Nine-Tails. Since they have absorbed so much chakra from Shenyue, it is also very reasonable to provide it in return. However, this is not the case.

Just kidding, this plant has always only plundered chakra. As for spitting out chakra in return, it is basically the same as expecting capitalists to give money and Danzo to do good deeds. It is completely impossible.

After all these troubles, Shen Yue was completely desperate. She also figured out that this thing in her body was just a time bomb in the bark of a sacred tree! There was no benefit at all, but there were all kinds of troubles. She had no way to deal with it, and finally could only treat it as if it had never existed.

But now, this little sapling that usually had no movement was happily stretching its branches, and the layers of dense and green new buds were connected into one. There was no wind in the consciousness space, but the flexible branches of the sacred tree were gently swaying on their own, interweaving a fresh and moist song of life.

The wood escape chakra of Hashirama Senju was resonating with the sacred tree!

Damn, the damn sacred tree is pitting me again!

Shen Yue wanted to cry but had no tears. The problem was, how could she explain the source of this resonance to Hashirama Senju? She couldn't just tell him:

"Hokage, you don't know, I am actually your long-lost niece!"

Shen Yue didn't even dare to look at Hashirama's expression. She wasShe was afraid that Hashirama Senju would mistakenly think that she also had Wood Release.

Let alone how shocking and appalling it was for an Uchiha to have Wood Release. In the ninja world, which places great importance on blood inheritance, this was already a scandal that endangered the foundation of the clan, and was enough to become the fuse for a new round of fighting between the two clans. Once the two families who founded the village started a dispute again, Konoha, which had just been established for less than six years, would likely fall apart.

Even if Shen Yue was confirmed to have no Wood Release, the ninja world was not without the ninja method of finding out blood ties. In this case, her bloodline would definitely be exposed, and then Tobirama Senju would definitely kill her in secret!

Thinking of this, Shen Yue felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and Tobirama Senju, who looked like a demon in her eyes, appeared in front of her, laughing strangely and about to chop her to death.

Wow, Master, help me, Brother Senju is so scary!

Shen Yue shrank herself tightly into Madara's arms, and her small body trembled with fear. Madara's hand covered her back powerfully. He raised his head and looked at Hashirama Senju, who was hesitant to speak.

The two close friends exchanged glances at each other at this moment, and everything that could be said and could not be said was unspoken.

In this situation, one of them must give in first, and it was completely impossible for Uchiha Madara to bow his head, so Hashirama Senju showed his signature simple smile, and he laughed a few times, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

"Ahahaha, that just now, it must be my illusion!"

Yes, yes, it's your illusion!

Shen Yue nodded frantically in her heart. At this time, the wonderful resonance between her and Hashirama Senju had ended, and everything seemed to return to normal, as if nothing had happened. However, she knew very well in her heart that Hashirama would never really pretend that nothing had happened as he said.

Soon, this treacherous fellow showed his furry fox tail. He came to Madara's side, holding a bunch of white flowers in his hands. Under Madara's death gaze, he still coaxed him:

"Shinzuki, do you want to go to the Senju clan's land to take a look?"

Senju Hashirama smiled very gently. He had a handsome and lively face and a generous and intelligent cheerful temperament. With such affinity, few people would feel disgusted with him, and even rejecting him seemed so shameful. But now, Shenyue just wanted to stay away from him. She really wanted to shout at him:

No, I don't want to!

If I go to the Senju clan's land, can I still walk out alive?

"Hey, Hashirama, are you trying to steal my disciple?"

Uchiha Madara's face turned black, and he immediately glared at Senju Hashirama viciously. Hashirama smiled, and did not deny Madara's words. He just looked at the Konoha Village under his feet with a bright look in his eyes:

"We can teach together. Sarutobi was taught by me and Tobirama together. When the ninja school is established, if you, me and Tobirama teach together, think about the way the children call us teachers, don't you think that would be great?"

Madara pondered for a moment, his brows slightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something. There was no doubt that Hashirama had successfully impressed him. But he quickly broke free from the wonderful illusion. There were two things in the future described by Hashirama that he absolutely could not tolerate. One was that Shenyue became Hashirama's disciple, and the other was that Tobirama became his colleague.

"You're not wrong. But, Shenyue is my important disciple, Hashirama, even if it's you, you can't take her away from me."

Banara hugged Shenyue tightly, and after saying this, he glanced at Hashirama and Konoha under their feet, and turned away without any nostalgia. Hashirama watched his back gradually going away, and his worries became worse. He couldn't help but call him from behind:

"Banara, where are you going?"

"I'm going back, you should also go back to the Hokage Building quickly, don't let your good brother come out to look for you in a hurry."

Seeing that the head of his family and his precious daughter finally left the terrifying man, indescribable joy rippled in Huohe's chest. He looked at Senju Momoka with gloating, and immediately followed the footsteps of Madara and Shenyue, and fled at a rapid speed.

Poor Momoka stretched out her hand helplessly. If possible, she also wanted to escape from Senju Hashirama. I don't know if it's because of a guilty conscience, she always felt that he definitely knew something!

"Momoka."

On the huge Hokage Rock, only Hashirama Senju and Momoka Senju were left. Without outsiders, Hashirama's majestic side as the Hokage was revealed. His calm eyes were fixed on Momoka's, and Momoka was terrified by his scrutinizing eyes and lowered her head first.

Are you hiding something from me?

No words are needed, Momoka can completely rely onHashirama's eyes guessed what he meant, thanks to his years of experience as his confidant.

At this moment, Momoka Senju's heart beat like a drum. She was afraid, afraid that Hashirama Senju would really ask this question. She knew very well that if Hashirama really asked, she would reveal all the secrets, even if it would inevitably endanger Shenyue and her life.

But she had no other choice, because she was still a ninja belonging to the Senju clan after all.

Hashirama Senju was also very clear about this, but in the end, he did not choose to ask that question. When the pedestrians on the street returned home, Hashirama also got up and left. He put on the divine robe and bamboo hat that symbolized the identity of the Hokage, and slowly walked towards the Hokage Building.

At the moment when he passed by Momoka who was unable to move, he stopped and patted the shoulder of his own elder.

"Momoka, after the establishment of the ninja school, you will also be a teacher."
