Comparing the two pillars, this pillar is too extreme!

"Otherwise, we wouldn't be so incapable of even considering attacking you..."

"The slug immortal said with a smile."

Jiraiya: That was terrifying... Just now, I thought the First Hokage was going to destroy Shikkotsu Forest...

Orochimaru: I never expected... that just the sheer aura emanating from his body would nearly destroy the entire Shikkotsu Forest... This kind of power can no longer be described as human!!

[The Fourth Raikage: If only I could go to the three great sacred lands to train in Sage Mode! I'd first integrate Sage Mode into my taijutsu; maybe that would bring about some unexpected changes!!]

[Tsunade: Even if you go and train in Sage Mode, let alone whether you can succeed, even if you do complete the training, you'll never reach Grandpa's level in this lifetime...]

[Minato Namikaze: Sage Mode training requires a calm and peaceful mind. People with restless minds are not suitable for this kind of training. The Fourth Raikage... I'm afraid even your Hidden Cloud Village is not suitable for Sage Mode training. The atmosphere in your village is too restless...]

[Shimura Danzo: If only Sage Mode training could be popularized... that would be wonderful... every ninja's strength could double... if all Konoha ninjas could learn Sage Mode, no other village could stand a chance against us!!]

……

The three sages looked at Hashirama Senju and were at a loss for words.

Especially the Great Toad Sage,

He knew Hashirama Senju the longest.

He watched Hashirama Senju grow step by step to where he is today.

very beginning,

Although Hashirama Senju mastered natural energy without a teacher...

This surprised him somewhat.

But it wasn't enough to terrify him.

But only a few years have passed?

Hashirama Senju's potential

It's like a bottomless pit.

There's no limit to improvement!

Even if the Great Toad Sage wakes up tomorrow,

Hashirama Senju told himself that he was stronger than the Sage of Six Paths.

Even the Great Toad Sage wouldn't find this surprising!

Staring at the three immortals who remained silent for a moment,

Hashirama Senju pondered for a moment.

He voiced the question that had been on his mind.

"Three immortals, you have lived long enough..."

"I'd like to ask you a question..."

"I wonder, what do you guys think of my current strength?"

"How much weaker are they compared to the powerful beings you encountered in ancient times?"

The toad sage pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke.

"In this era, you have no rivals..."

"But in a much more ancient era..."

"Those like you are not many, but they are definitely not few either..."

The White Snake Immortal banished the other thoughts from his mind.

“Gamamaru is right…”

"Your strength is only slightly greater than ours right now..."

"But in ancient times, we were not considered to be at the top."

·· ·······Requesting flowers··· ·······

"But...why are you curious about this?"

The three immortals all showed expressions of doubt.

Even if there were beings stronger than Hashirama Senju in ancient times,

But it's highly unlikely they'd be alive today.

Although they are powerful

But their lifespan is short.

Like these three, these are outliers who have lived from ancient times to the present.

There should only be the three of them.

"The three immortals may consider this..."

"An existence stronger than you..."

"Their every word and action can be earth-shattering; a single sentence can decide the life and death of countless people..."

"Could such beings be content to die like that?"

"I wonder if the three immortals have noticed that there always seems to be some unknown forces lurking in the shadows, stirring up the world's situation..."

"Furthermore, I've noticed that as my strength grows... I always have this feeling of being watched, but I can never quite pinpoint where this feeling comes from!..."

Upon hearing Hashirama Senju's words,

The expressions on the faces of the three immortals grew increasingly serious!

To have cultivated to the level of Hashirama Senju

His feelings couldn't have come from nowhere.

He said that,

It is certainly possible that someone is secretly watching him from behind.

With such great strength,

But he was still secretly watching Hashirama Senju from behind.

Who exactly is behind this?

What is his purpose?

Thinking of this,

The three immortals also felt that things were not simple.

"Do you think... the person spying from behind... could be that woman...?"

"Or perhaps it's the Hagoromo Otsutsuki?"

Looking at the other two silent immortals,

.... .... 0

The Slug Sage revealed his own guess!

That woman?

Otsutsuki Hagoromo?

Hashirama Senju's expression shifted slightly.

It seems that

This world indeed has many secrets that are unknown to others.

The three immortals know a great deal!

He remembered,

Hagoromo Otsutsuki is the name of the legendary Sage of Six Paths.

"Hagoromo... if it's him... then it really might be true..."

"Whether he is dead or alive, only he himself knows."

Upon hearing the name Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the Great Toad Sage...

A look of nostalgia appeared on his face.

"Heh... How could you not know whether he's alive or dead?"

"You were comrades-in-arms who fought side by side back then!!"

The White Snake Immortal exhaled a smoke ring and mocked.

"We came together because we shared the same enemy."

"But in the end, Hagoromo Otsutsuki also turned into the form of our enemy..."

He believes himself to be the savior, and that the world's operation must follow his orders!

"And so... I still chose to part ways with him..."
