Chapter 6: Chapter 6 : End of First Review!!
After hearing what Teacher Tobirama said, Sarutobi Hiruzen's breathing became rapid, his mouth dry, and his young face covered with cold sweat. Senju Tobirama also wore a solemn expression.
He pondered more deeply than Sarutobi Hiruzen did.
The grim state of the world that the man on the screen spoke about deeply troubled him.
All the high-ranking leaders of Konoha knew that Tobirama Senju was a master at inventing ninjutsu.
However, the ninjutsu he created, though powerful and practical, also carried severe side effects.
Such ninjutsu was collectively known as forbidden techniques.
Tobirama invented numerous forbidden techniques, the most renowned being the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, alongside several lesser-known ones.
Among them was a forbidden technique called Impure World Reincarnation.
This forbidden technique's purpose was to summon the souls of deceased ninjas and resurrect them in physical form.
However, those resurrected in this manner were not truly revived.
They lacked senses like smell, taste, and touch.
Thus, those revived by Impure World Reincarnation were also referred to as "Impure World Bodies."
Even the Uchiha Madara from the Pure Land, resurrected during the Fourth Great Ninja War via the Rinnegan, lamented, "I can finally experience true battle."
Senju Tobirama remained unaware of Uchiha Madara's grievances during the Fourth Great Ninja War. He only knew that the forbidden technique he devised seemed to cause immense trouble for future generations.
Besides the formidable foes shown in the images on the screen, he could discern powerful ninjas in subsequent generations.
However, Tobirama did not underestimate these ninjas; it's just that Uchiha Madara's strength simply doesn't match up to theirs.
He firmly believed that the only one capable of stopping Uchiha Madara was his older brother, Senju Hashirama.
Fortunately, they were both summoned using the Impure World Reincarnation to halt Uchiha Madara. Otherwise, Tobirama feared he might become the pariah of the entire ninja world.
[The First Hokage, Hashirama, single-handedly conquered the world with his Wood Style alone.]
[In his lifetime, he was considered Madara's equal, but in truth, he always surpassed Madara.]
[Even though Yamato inherited his abilities later, he could only wield Wood Release for environmental purposes.]
[Hashirama is the reincarnation of Ashura, the son of the Sage of Six Paths, which makes him extraordinarily unique.]
"Sensei, this..."
This time, Tobirama paid no heed to Sarutobi Hiruzen's astonishment. He furrowed his brow and murmured to himself, "So Ashura is the Sage of Six Paths' son."
Recalling Hayashi Sora's earlier words about his older brother being the reincarnation of Ashura's chakra, Tobirama had been pondering who Ashura really was. Now, it all made sense.
So, Ashura is indeed the Sage of Six Paths' son.
My older brother is the reincarnation of the Ashura's chakra, Sage of Six Paths's son, and I am his younger brother.
So, I am also the son of Sage of Six Paths.
What a revelation.
This calls for celebration.
Wait.
What nonsense.
Ashura can reincarnate through chakra.
But what about the Sage of Six Paths as his father?
Could he be hidden somewhere in the ninja world, silently observing everything?
The thought of an old man spying on the ninja world made Senju Tobirama feel uneasy.
[Ashura is a second-generation Ōtsutsuki. He was the underdog in his class with poor academic performance. Only with his father's and the villagers' help could he overcome his brother, Indra.]
[There are many reincarnations of Ashura, but only Hashirama Senju can be called a genius in all aspects.]
[Even though Wood Release Ninjutsu isn't built on the shoulders of predecessors, it's still highly revered.]
[Deep Forest Bloom, Wood Dragon, Deep Forest Emergence, and a series of other techniques can easily handle various situations.]
[Not only that, Hashirama also secretly mastered Sage Mode without informing anyone.]
[Combining Wood Release and Sage Jutsu, he crushed enemies effortlessly.]
[Several years later, Kurama recalled the past, remembering most vividly how Hashirama warned that his power would bring great suffering to all living beings, then pinned Kurama down and playfully rubbed its head.]
[Due to time constraints, I'll halt here regarding Hashirama's life experiences.]
[As for what happened after Hashirama's death and his resurrection during the Fourth Great Ninja War, I'll save that for later.]
[Next time, we'll delve into Konoha Village's Second Hokage: Tobirama Senju.]
[This unfortunate leader, who was poised to elevate Konoha to new heights, tragically perished during peace negotiations with the Hidden Cloud Village.]
[By the way, remember to long-press to like and click three times in one go—it's crucial for me.]
[You wouldn't want me to stop producing videos due to financial constraints, right?]
[I'm the new Content Creator, Sora, see you next time.]
And that wraps up the first review of Hashirama Senju.
Tobirama originally thought the light screen would vanish after his review was complete.
Instead, not only did the screen not disappear, but a big thumbs-up and reward options appeared.
"What should I do, sensei?"
Tobirama pondered for a moment, then stood up and approached the light screen.
Following Sora's advice, he pressed his palm against the thumb icon.
About two seconds later, the thumb lit up, and Tobirama withdrew his hand.
As for rewards, there were gold bars in his office that he had kept for a long time.
These gold bars were initially meant as rewards for civilian ninjas who had contributed after the war.
"He could just take out a piece and give it as a reward to this Content Creator named Hayashi Sora.
[Click to reward.]
After clicking, a small circular platform with a diameter of fifty centimeters appeared in the void directly in front of the light curtain.
Without thinking much, Tobirama placed the gold nugget in his hand on the small platform.
Five seconds later, a special effect of white light flashed by.
The small platform and the gold nugget disappeared right under their noses, without a trace.
At the same time, the light curtain also disappeared.
"This light curtain is really magical."
Whether it was the introduction of the First Hokage by the new Content Creator named Hayashi Sora in the light curtain, or the gold bars and small platforms that just disappeared, they all opened Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes and surprised him.
However, although he was surprised, Sarutobi Hiruzen was very worried about what Sora said at the end, that Tobirama would die in the peace talks with Kumogakure.
"There's nothing to worry about. Now that I know when I'm going to die, I'll definitely do my best to avoid it."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.
He knew that the teacher's thoughts and wisdom were beyond his reach.
I also know that the teacher must want to think quietly about what was just said on the screen.
So he was very tactful and did not pester Tobirama to teach him new water-style ninjutsu, but just took his leave and left the Hokage's office.
Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen thought, Tobirama really needed some quiet time to think.
After all, there are too many things revealed in the light screen, and he needs to sort them out carefully.
After a long time, when it was completely dark and his stomach was growling with hunger, Tobirama stood up from his chair with a sneer on his lips.
