Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

"Danzo, I want to eat that!"

Lianye pointed to the cake shop in front of her.

At this moment, a long queue had formed at the cake shop, indicating that business was booming.

Danzo Shimura: "..."

With such a long queue, why don't you just go and buy it yourself!

All they do is boss him around all day long.

"You were the Third Hokage, so they'll definitely give you face. Cutting in line shouldn't be a problem."

Lian Ye said with a smile.

It must be said that Danzo was very prestigious in the village.

If Danzo were to cut in line, no one would object; on the contrary, they would be happy for him to do so.

"Are you even speaking human language?!"

Danzo Shimura was nearly driven mad by Renya's words.

He couldn't afford to let the prestige of the Third Hokage, which he was so proud of, be tarnished by something like this.

Otherwise, Hiruzen would definitely laugh at him to death.

"Haha, I was just joking." Lian Ye scratched her head awkwardly. "Why are you reacting so strongly?"

Danzo Shimura snorted coldly.

He didn't think Lian Ye was joking just now, given his understanding of his good brother's shamelessness.

They probably really want him to cut in line as the Third Hokage!

He would never do anything that would damage his prestige.

"You wait here, I'll go buy it for you." Shimura Danzo was ultimately stubborn but soft-hearted.

Lian Ye casually found a seat and sat down, silently watching her good brother's back as he waited in line.

Just as he was about to be called upon to serve Danzo, he belatedly remembered something.

If I remember correctly, that cake shop should be his property.

In other words, he's the boss, so he doesn't need to wait in line at all.

Seeing his good friend who had been queuing for a long time, he ultimately didn't dare to explain the situation to him.

Here, take it.

Danzo Shimura bought several portions of pastries, knowing his good friend liked sweets.

"Would you like one?"

"No, thank you. I don't like sweets."

"Alright then, it's shameful to waste food, so I'll have to finish these cakes myself."

Lianye found a self-deceiving excuse and then began to enjoy the taste of the dessert.

Danzo Shimura: "..."

This guy is really stubborn!

She clearly loves desserts, but she's refused to admit it all these years.

The excuse used to be to take it home to Tsunade.

I wonder if Tsunade actually got to eat the dessert?

"Danzo, are you really not going to eat?"

Shimura Danzo looked at the last piece of cake, then at Renya's reluctant eyes, and suddenly had the idea to tease her.

"Since you want me to eat it so badly, I'll reluctantly give it a try."

As he spoke, he reached out to take the cake.

Lianye: "???"

Why isn't my good buddy playing by the rules?!

He was just being polite; he didn't really mean to share!

"Alright, I was just kidding."

Seeing Renya's conflicted expression, Shimura Danzo couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

"You're such a grown-up, yet you still act like a child, possessive of your food."

"Tch, you're saying I'm possessive of my food?"

Seeing this, Renya realized that Danzo had done it on purpose.

Realizing he had been tricked, he retorted irritably, "I remember someone fighting with Hiruzen Sarutobi over a lion's head when they were kids."

Danzo Shimura: "..."

Being suddenly attacked by memories of the dead is an incredibly painful feeling.

"Tsk tsk, one lion's head meatball can shatter brotherhood!"

Renya's teasing continued, and Danzo began to regret his joke.

Isn't this like lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot?!

Forget it, it's best not to mess with this petty guy in the future.

"Okay, I was wrong."

Seeing that Renya's mouth never stopped, Shimura Danzo had no choice but to apologize decisively.

If his good friend continues to say things like that, his lifelong reputation will be ruined!

"Alright, I'll reluctantly forgive your mistake."

Lianye didn't say anything more and continued to enjoy the cake with relish.

Danzo Shimura, on the other hand, was lost in his memories; sometimes fate is truly wondrous.

They initially disliked each other, then became comrades-in-arms, and finally close friends.

This experience felt like a dream, giving him a sense of unreality.

Danzo, who used the Dragon Vein to travel to other time and space, understood that it was Renya's appearance that changed their lives!

His best friend is an extraordinary, unique person...

Having traversed so many time periods, he saw many familiar people, but he never saw Lian Ye, the one he knew!

"Lianye..."

Danzo Shimura looked serious.

"Thank you!"

Lianye, who was eating cake, looked up in a daze, not even bothering to wipe the cream off her lips.

"Did you steal some of the food Hashirama made?!"

He couldn't think of any other reason besides this.

Danzo Shimura: "..."

He shouldn't have said that to an idiot who only got five points in academic subjects!

Chapter 737 You think I've never died before!

The residence of Hashirama Senju.

"Ban, do you think I don't have much time left to live?"

Hashirama Senju suddenly asked.

Madara Uchiha stiffened and turned his head to ask unhappily.

Why are you asking this kind of question?

Hashirama's body had always been very healthy, so he didn't understand why the other person was saying that.

"Don't be so serious." Hashirama Senju smiled. "Although you have healed my body, my lifespan will eventually come to an end."

"I was just wondering if you'd feel lonely after I leave..."

"Why all the emotional talk?" Madara Uchiha said irritably. "Do you think I've never died before?!"

“Exactly, Hashirama Senju,” Izuna Uchiha chimed in. “We’ve all died once, your emotional appeals won’t work on us!”

He and his brother truly came back to life, and the Thousand Hands Brothers were not killed.

Hashirama Senju: "..."

The pleasant atmosphere was disrupted.

"Haha, you're right." Hashirama Senju chuckled and scratched his head. "Can you tell me about the afterlife?"

“Once you die, you lose consciousness.” Madara Uchiha explained in a deep voice, “It’s like falling into a deep sleep. After being resurrected by Edo Tensei, your memories remain at the moment before you died.”

Tobirama Senju secretly pricked up his ears; so this is what the afterlife is like.

He had thought there would be a place similar to the underworld.

It seems that's not the case now; when someone dies, they're truly dead.

"I see..." Hashirama Senju looked regretful. "I was hoping to see Mito after I died."

"Hehe, if you die, I'll use Reincarnation to resurrect you."

Madara Uchiha sneered.

"I can't let you die before me!"

He didn't die, so what right does Hashirama have to die first?

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by dead or alive?"

Renya and Danzo had just returned when they vaguely overheard a discussion among the group.

"Haha, I was discussing with Madara and the others what the afterlife is like."

Hashirama Senju explained with a smile.

So, what is the world like after death?

Lianye was quite interested in this.

I wonder if there is anything similar to the underworld in the ninja world.

Do you really go to the underworld after you die?

The fact that the chakra of Indra and Asura can be reincarnated suggests that reincarnation should exist.

Or rather, it wasn't a reincarnation.

It's just that the chakra of Indra and Ashura attached itself to the newborn children, thus subtly influencing their personalities...

If it weren't for Ashura's chakra influence, he wouldn't believe that Naruto Uzumaki would be so optimistic and cheerful.

Even if he doesn't destroy Konoha or the ninja world, his personality should at least be like Gaara's!

In the original work, Sasuke was born after Madara died.

It should be that Indra's chakra is in Madara's body, and it can only find a new host after Madara dies.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

It's not difficult to verify the truth; all we need to do is see if Naruto can be born if Hashirama doesn't die.

Mr. Ban died once, so his case cannot be used as a reference.

After all, Indra's chakra might have left when he died.

"Madara said that death is like falling into a deep sleep, and after being resurrected by Edo Tensei, one's memories will remain from before death."

Hashirama Senju repeated it again.
