Comparing the two pillars, this pillar is too extreme!

[Hashirama Senju: My other self is amazing! She accomplished what I dreamed of. I never imagined that the Uchiha and Senju clans could live together so peacefully!!]

Orochimaru: This First Hokage was truly a genius, managing to devise such a gentle method for awakening the Sharingan. If he had done this earlier, perhaps the Uchiha clan wouldn't have been wiped out...!

[Onoki: Heh, what does the Uchiha clan's annihilation have to do with how they awakened their Sharingan? Their demise was inevitable. Many things were foreshadowed when the Uchiha joined Konoha, wouldn't you say, Third Hokage?]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: What are you talking about? I don't understand a word. Anyway, I've already sent people to hunt down Itachi Uchiha, the rogue ninja of Konoha!! That's all I know.]

[Uchiha Sasuke: From what you're saying... could there be some hidden story behind the annihilation of the Uchiha clan?!]

……

"How about it?"

"Has the invitation reached Hashirama Senju?"

Nara Saki watched the messenger return.

He quickly stood up and asked.

"...I didn't go in..."

"That monster at the entrance was too terrifying, so I handed it over to Tobirama Senju's subordinates."

The person who delivered the invitations wore a helpless, bitter smile.

His strength was only that of an ordinary ninja.

When he saw the tanuki (raccoon dog) at the entrance of the Senju clan,

His whole body went limp.

terrible! !

He never thought about it.

How could such a terrifying creature exist in the world?!

Just standing in front of it,

He felt like his soul was ascending to heaven!

And this terrifying creature,

It's just a pet guarding the Senju clan!

"As long as it's delivered, that's fine."

"What did Tobirama Senju say?"

Regarding the process,

Nara Saki didn't care.

He just wanted to know the outcome.

The messenger relayed Tobirama Senju's reply.

He said, "If nothing unexpected happens..."

"The Senju clan chief will likely pay a visit in person; we just need to wait."

I didn't pay attention to the second half of the sentence.

Hearing that Hashirama Senju would be coming.

Nara Saki breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good... It's good that you came..."

The fact that Hashirama Senju was able to come shows that their relationship with the Senju clan isn't particularly bad!

A few days ago,

Saki Nara learned of something extremely terrifying.

Fire Temple

The temple was actually destroyed!!!

The head priest of the Fire Temple,

Including all the monks inside,

Not a single person survived!

The Buddha statues at the Fire Temple were completely destroyed!

It's said there were traces of Wood Release techniques at the scene!

As for the daimyo's response to this matter...

But there was no reaction whatsoever.

He chose to remain silent!

At this moment, Nara Saki was unaware that the daimyo had already been controlled by Senju Hashirama using genjutsu.

He assumed that the previous incident had terrified the daimyo!

When Nara Saki learned of this...

He was utterly shocked!

He knew about the Fire Temple's historical background.

The most terrifying thing isn't that a powerful expert has appeared in the Fire Temple!

What's most terrifying is the Buddha array of the Fire Temple!!

The Buddhist array of the Fire Temple can perfectly fuse the power of everyone in the Fire Temple together.

And it's not a simple fusion where one plus one is greater than two.

But even so,

The Temple of Fire was destroyed without a trace?!

This left Nara Saki somewhat incredulous!

Simultaneously,

This intensified his sense of crisis.

These few years,

The situation in the Land of Fire is changing far too quickly.

He must make a choice as soon as possible.

Otherwise, when the tide comes,

No one can escape it!!

……

“Big brother, the Nara clan, the Yamanaka clan, the Akimichi clan…”

"The three clans have extended an invitation to you, hoping you will attend their family celebrations..."

Tobirama Senju relayed the invitation from the three clans to Hashirama Senju.

"I never expected that these three families would actually take the initiative to invite you..."

"Many of the schemes the Daimyo used against our family were devised by them..."

When we get to this point,

Tobirama Senju even showed an expression of appreciation on his face.

Regarding many of the methods used by the three races,

He couldn't help but admire them greatly!

Although the Senju clan had conflicts with the other three clans.

Standing on the opposite side,

However, Tobirama Senju did not hold a grudge against the three clans.

In his eyes,

This is simply a choice made by people from different camps.

Putting that aside,

Tobirama Senju even believed that

There is no antagonistic relationship.

He even manages to maintain good relations with the three clan leaders!

In name only,

Hashirama Senju was the head of the Senju clan.

But he wasn't really practicing.

Or they're outside.
