Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"It's you!"

Senju Hashirama pointed at the stranger who suddenly appeared, his face full of excitement, as if he had seen a relative.
Such an abnormal behavior confused Jigen who came to check. Otsutsuki, who claimed to be omniscient and omnipotent, couldn't understand why the person in front of him had such an expression when he saw him.

Cixian frowned slightly: "This should be the first time we meet, right?"

"We have been searching for you so hard!"

Just as he was about to approach and talk to the target he had been looking for for a long time, before Senju Hashirama took two steps, he was stopped by Senju Tobirama who was standing beside him.

"Tobirama?"

"Who are you?"

Without answering the puzzled elder brother, Senju Tobirama, who was standing in front, frowned. Although he was a clone and did not have the strength of the original one-to-one, his keen perception was still there.

If there was any disturbance in the surroundings, he would definitely be able to discover it immediately, but now, Senju Tobirama was completely unaware of Jigen's appearance.
This mysterious monk seemed to have appeared beside them out of nowhere.

"Me? I'm just a wandering monk."

Jigen shook his head, his eyes swept over the two brothers with very different appearances, and finally fell on the face of Senju Hashirama.

It's white, just a ball of chakra clones.

Black, familiar smell.

Is this the breath of the sacred tree?
A gleam of light flashed in his black pupils, and Jigen actually sensed the aura of a sacred tree in Hashirama Senju, an aura that contained almost inexhaustible vitality.

"You are Jixian, right?"

While Jigen was looking at the Senju brothers, he flipped through the missing person notice and compared it with the blurry portrait for a long time before hesitantly asking,
After all, the idea of ​​a person living for a thousand years is too unbelievable and cannot be explained by common sense.

"Oh?"

Hearing the other party calling out his name, Cixian narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not expect that the two people in front of him were actually looking for him.

"It seems like you are right. Can you come with us?"

Seeing that Jigen did not deny it, Senju Hashirama was delighted and waved his hand to greet him.
The completion standard of the missing person notice is to bring the target back to the employer who issued the task for inspection.
Although this mission spans a thousand years, the descendants of the employer who originally issued the mission are still around, and in each generation there are people who are dedicated to overseeing the progress of this mission.

"Come to arrest me?"

When Jigen heard what Hashirama Senju said, his first reaction was that the sky was falling.

Ever since he was stabbed in the back by Kaguya and lost most of his body, Otsutsuki Isshiki has been dormant in this body. Since his strength has never recovered to its peak, he has been very low-key in using Jigen's body.
After Kaguya ate the Chakra Fruit, she dominated the entire world. She would use the Infinite Tsukuyomi for fun whenever she had time. This scared Jigen so much that she didn't dare to show her head, for fear of being killed instantly by that crazy woman.

Many years passed like this, and Kaguya, who was becoming increasingly insane, finally reaped the fruits of her own actions and was sealed by the power she had differentiated, the so-called two sons.

Seeing this, Jigen prepared to leave the mountain, intending to take back the fruit that originally belonged to him, but Kaguya's son turned into the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and shared his chakra with this world.
Knowing that she was no match for her opponent, Jigen could only feel heartbroken while retreating to the most remote corner to avoid being discovered by the Six Paths Sage.

Cixian's shrinkage lasted for a thousand years.

Unexpectedly, it was discovered in the end.

These two humans should be descendants of Kaguya. Could it be that they came here to capture me under the orders of the Six Paths Sage?
His brain began to work at high speed, and in just a few seconds, Cixian had already imagined a shocking conspiracy against him.

Of the two humans opposite, one is a so-called chakra clone, not to be feared, and the other one has black hair. Judging from his aura alone, his strength is definitely not weak, and he belongs to the top level of humans in this world.

Get started first!
A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and light blue chakra emerged from Cixian's body. The power contained in it was filled with an indescribable ancient aura.
The moment Jigen released his aura, Tobirama Senju realized something was wrong and his heart tightened. He immediately grabbed Hashirama Senju and retreated.

"Tobirama, what are you pulling me for?"

Feeling puzzled, Hashirama Senju scratched the back of his head.

"Brother, can't you take a look at the situation?"

Senju Tobirama was stagnant. The other party was obviously ready to fight, and you were still scratching your head.

"Huh? Sorry, I was too hungry to open my senses."

Hearing this, Senju Hashirama touched his shriveled stomach with an embarrassed expression.

For ninjas, perception ninjutsu is an active skill that consumes more mental energy and chakra, so it will only be used when needed.

"This"

As the perception ninjutsu was activated, the expression of Hashirama Senju, who was laughing just now, suddenly became solemn. In his perception, the aura exuded by the monk in front of him was like a bottomless black hole.

The feeling of oppression all around him was stronger than any enemy he had ever encountered.

"Sure enough, not everyone is as weak as that curly-haired guy."

Before Senju Tobirama, he was smart enough to classify Jigen as an immortal like Uchiha Gin, and thought that these men who learned the Hundred Healings Technique were all old bastards with weak strength.
But now he was slapped in the face by reality. Senju Tobirama's eyes moved slightly, and he was planning in his mind how to deal with the unknown enemy.

Whoosh!
While Senju Tobirama was still planning how to fight, Jigen, who could no longer hold back, took action first and disappeared from the spot in a ghostly manner.

"Tobirama, be careful!"

When he reappeared, Tobirama Senju was almost unconscious. Hashirama Senju, who was standing behind him, used his reaction ability developed from years of fighting to grab his brother.

The next moment, a black rod emitting a destructive aura brushed past the visor of Senju Tobirama.

Swish!
After his sneak attack failed, Jigen turned around and thrust a black stick that appeared out of nowhere at the Senju brothers.
"Wooden Escape·Wooden Spindle Wall."

Looking at the black stick that was so close, Hashirama Senju clapped his hands, and several branches broke out of the ground and turned into a round shield, blocking the two brothers.

"Bang~"

However, what Senju Hashirama did not expect was that the Wood Release that could even defend against Ninjutsu was easily penetrated by the black stick.
Just before the black stick was about to pierce their bodies, Senju Tobirama came to his senses and raised his finger, and the two brothers turned into a blue light and disappeared on the spot.

After his attack failed again, Jixian looked at the withering branches thoughtfully, and his black pupils gradually began to change color.
It seems that this powerful vitality can be utilized.

"What the hell is that?"

In the dense forest dozens of miles away from the battlefield, Senju Tobirama, who had flown with his elder brother, let out a long sigh of relief after landing. Recalling the mysterious black stick in Jigen's hand, his eyes were full of exploration of the unknown.

"It's not easy, Tobirama. Why don't you go get some help?"

Senju Hashirama, who was also still in fear, thought about it briefly and made a conservative suggestion.

"Wait a minute, let me figure out his routine first."

Senju Tobirama naturally knew who his elder brother wanted him to shake, but at the moment, all the means of the enemy were unknown.
If Uchiha Madara were to be brought here and die, Konoha would be doomed.

Shadow clones are supposed to be scouts, and Tobirama Senju, as a shadow clone, naturally has this awareness.
He immediately closed his eyes and began to look for Cixian's scent, preparing to go and fight with him and get some information.
As a result, the next second, Tobirama Senju, who was searching carefully, broke out in a cold sweat, because he found that Jigen's aura was behind the two brothers.

"Who are you looking for?"

A cold voice sounded, and the two brothers jumped dozens of meters away without looking back. When they turned around, they saw a scene that shocked them.
"Baibaiyan? Are you from the Hyuga clan?"

They saw that the left eye of Jixian, whose pupils were black just now, had turned into the familiar white eye.

And judging from the pupil power emitted, the purity is definitely not low, and it is even stronger than the Hinata Tianyao that the two are familiar with.

"Hinata? Huh~"

Jigen curled his lips in disdain when he heard this. He naturally knew the Hyuga clan, which was just a group of humans with a thin stream of Otsutsuki blood.

He only has the appearance of the Byakugan, but has not inherited much of its true power.

Abandoning the powerful eye power, he used his body as a weapon instead.

Pure lung mist.

"In that case."

Senju Tobirama's heart tightened slightly. Under the insight of the Byakugan, his physical skills were a joke. The only thing he could show off was,

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

He quickly formed seals with both hands, and in less than a second, a stream of water with extremely strong penetration gushed out from Senju Tobirama's mouth and swept straight towards Jigen who was not far away.
Unexpectedly, facing the sharp water knife, Jigen had no intention of resisting. Senju Tobirama couldn't help but show excitement on his face. He liked this kind of pretentious player.

My Water Breaker can cut off Susanoo!

Looking at the aggressive Shui Duanbo, a hint of mockery appeared in Cixian's black and white eyes.

"Ninjutsu?"

He just raised one hand and casually grabbed the water that could cut gold and jade.

"Shu~"

The imagined sound of flesh being cut did not sound, and Senju Tobirama's excited expression froze on his face, his scarlet eyes full of disbelief.
"how is this possible?"

"tasty."

After absorbing the water-breaking waves condensed by chakra into his body, Jigen slightly raised his hands, bursts of black air emanated from his palms, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"Tobirama, look at his face!"

Witnessing this scene, Hashirama Senju was shocked, but his attention was drawn to the black mark that suddenly appeared on Jigen's body.

This facial pattern similar to the Sage Mode made Hashirama Senju feel even more depressed. The opponent's aura actually reached a higher level, gradually going beyond his acceptable range.

"Brother, is this Sage Mode?"

Senju Tobirama retreated to the side of Senju Hashirama and asked with a frown,

"No, there is no breath of natural energy. It should be some similar method."

Shaking his head, Hashirama Senju quietly began to gather the power of nature. Under normal circumstances, he was probably no match for the mysterious monk in front of him.

However, due to the sequelae of his previous illness, he can no longer enter the Sage Mode instantly, and needs to concentrate on reading for a while.

"you are very funny."

Jigen, holding the black stick, stretched out his hand and pointed at the frowning Senju Hashirama. The power in this human's body might be able to help him.

"Sorry, I already have someone."

Seeing that Jigen had locked onto him, Hashirama Senju exchanged glances with his brother, then took a step forward and made a classic stomping move.
"It doesn't matter. I don't need your will."

Jigen was only interested in Hashirama's body, which was similar to the sacred tree. As for the others, he didn't want to know more.

After saying this, he raised the black stick in his hand, and his figure disappeared again. Hashirama Senju focused his eyes, put his hands together, and poured out the power of wood escape. Countless thick branches instantly rose from the ground, "The tree world is coming!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!
Jigen tried to get close to Hashirama Senju, but was soon blocked by countless branches. He frowned and swept the branches with his black stick, causing them to fall to the ground.

However, new growth soon grew out from the broken part, making it difficult for Cixian to move forward.

Just as Jigen was distracted by the Wood Release, Tobirama Senju, who had already prepared a killing move, held a sharp blade and turned into a flash of blue light.
"Flying Thunder God Slash!"

The sharp blade, reflecting the cold light, stabbed at Cixian's waist skillfully, but the opponent dodged it by a hair's breadth.

"Space-related magic? That's quite rare."

Jigen glanced at it calmly, and the black stick in his hand stabbed directly at Senju Tobirama's head without slowing down.

swoosh~
Seeing this, Senju Tobirama had to use the Flying Thunder God Technique again to avoid the fatal blow.

"Brother, his insight is too strong, and it is impossible to get close to him."

Senju Tobirama appeared beside Senju Hashirama and shook his head gloomily. Jigen's Byakugan could clearly see his attack route.
The mysterious black stick in the opponent's hand can easily penetrate even the eldest brother's Wood Release, so it is definitely not something that his clone can easily touch.

"Then we can only rush!"

Since you can't fight in close combat, just use bricks to fly.

"Wood Release·Wood Dragon Technique!"

Senju Hashirama clasped his hands together again, and the mighty power of Wood Release poured into the ground from the soles of his feet. In the blink of an eye, four ferocious dragons broke out of the ground, opened their bloody mouths, and bit towards Jigen who was not far away.

"Roar!"

Cixian frowned slightly, and faced the siege of four giant dragons. He waved the black stick in his hand and rushed forward.
"Bah!"

Although the black stick has the ability to disrupt chakra, the wood dragon is too big, so the needle-thin black stick can't really play a role.

Stabbing the surface of the wood dragon bar could only eliminate a small part of the wood escape creation, and the missing part was quickly repaired by the power of the wood escape.

Whoosh!
In desperation, Jigen could only dodge, which created a great opportunity for Senju Tobirama, who was good at finding flaws.
He threw several kunai from behind at Jigen who was hanging in the air to avoid the wooden dragon.
"Bah!"

Jigen frowned slightly, and with a backhand swing, he knocked away all the kunai behind him. The next second after he withdrew his hand, a dazzling blue light burst out from the kunai that had just been deflected.

"Taste this."

The figure of Senju Tobirama appeared behind Jigen like a ghost, and before the other party could react, he threw out a stack of burning detonating talismans.

"Boom!"

There was a wooden dragon in front and an explosive talisman behind. A look of surprise flashed across Cixian's calm face, and the next second she was engulfed by the flames rising into the sky.

Senju Tobirama turned into blue light and fell to the ground with his hands folded across his chest. He did not turn his head slowly until the explosions behind him stopped, with an unconcealable look of pride in the corners of his eyes.

I must have been very handsome just now!
However, when he saw Jigen slowly walking out of the thick smoke, a look of confusion appeared on Senju Tobirama's face for the first time.

"No, it's impossible! How could you be fine?"

"I was forced to this point by two ants."

Floating in the air, Cixian had a cold expression on her face, and the black mark on her face was even darker than before.

Not only that, there was actually a horn protruding from his smooth scalp?
This kind of attitude can no longer be called a person defined by common sense.

"What the hell are you?"

Senju Tobirama, awakened from his confusion, could not help but ask loudly,

"I am God!"

After entering the second stage of the wedge, Jigen's strength doubled compared to before. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Senju Tobirama.
With a pair of eyes that were filled with mysterious power, he looked indifferently at the human who had made him feel a little embarrassed.
"You are a white-headed fly that flies around. You should be locked up in jail."

"Stay away from the door!"

Senju Hashirama jumped up, with a strong blue light on his fist. He rarely used the real power fist, ready to save his brother.
"Flying Thunder."

However, Tobirama Senju, who was being stared at by Jigen, had his pupils trembled violently. This kind of movement was no longer just about speed. He immediately raised his finger in alertness, and the blue light lit up again.
"Mahakala."

But the next moment, what greeted him was endless darkness.

Senju Hashirama's fist was still a step too late. Jigen, who had sent Senju Tobirama's clone into a special space, took a few steps back and easily dodged the blow.
"boom!"

The Senju Hashirama who was lying on the ground suddenly raised his head, and his eyes happened to meet those of Jigen. Even though he had seen all kinds of pupils, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"What kind of pupil technique is this?"

It was an eye that had never been recorded before. It was golden in color, with eight triangular patterns surrounding the pupil.

The pupil power emanating from it was far greater than that of Uchiha Madara that Hashirama Senju was familiar with.

"You don't need to know."

This was the first time in a thousand years that Jigen had used the power of the wedge, and he couldn't help but miss the days when he was in power.

However, the price of this power is not low. First of all, the service life of this body will be shortened a lot. It is estimated that it can only last about another fifty years.

"Where did you send Tobirama?"

Just now, Senju Tobirama suddenly disappeared in front of him, but he didn't turn into smoke. He could only have been captured by the person in front of him, or sent to some other place.

"Oh? You want to go too?"

Cixian lowered her eyelids, and there was an inexplicable look in her golden beige eyes.

"Hand over Tobirama!"

Even though the one who was captured was his brother's clone, Hashirama Senju could not guarantee whether this mysterious monk had the means to harm the original monk through the clone.

"Wooden Release: Wooden Man's Technique!"

The honest wooden arhat started up again. Jigen raised his head and looked at Hashirama Senju standing on top of the wooden arhat with interest. The admiration in his eyes became stronger.
“It is a really beautiful work, very collectible.”

The next moment, the wooden man’s giant fist fell down with a loud bang.

"boom!"

The wooden man punched the cliff with his fist, causing a cloud of dust to fill the air. Countless rocks rumbled down, but were caught by the wooden man's quick hands.

"Huh, I almost made a mistake."

Standing on top of the wooden figure, Senju Hashirama breathed a sigh of relief.

Senju Tobirama stuck his head out from the top of the cliff, looking worried: "Brother, be careful, there are houses below!"

"I know, I'll be careful."

Senju Hashirama smiled awkwardly, manipulated the wooden man to place the rubble in his hand in the waste area, and then concentrated on dealing with the cliff in front of him.

The huge palm carefully slid across the hard rock, smoothing out some of the protruding edges.

"Shodaime-sama is really thoughtful. He even carved the Hokage Rock for Nidaime-sama himself."

The huge noise made by the wooden man naturally attracted the attention of the residents of Konoha. Some people who knew the inside story were moved and praised Hashirama Senju for his personal action.

"This is called returning a favor. Wasn't the rock painting by the First Generation Master made overnight by the Second Generation Master?"

"This is truly a great story of Konoha~"

"That's right."

No, Uchiha Madara did it to show off his skills.

And the Senju Hashirama.
Simply because I have no money.

"Tobirama, can you let me rest for a while? I'm not the real me, just a weak wooden clone~"

Under the Hokage Rock, the wooden clone of Senju Hashirama raised his head and pleaded with the supervisor, Senju Tobirama, with a pale face.

"No! Tomorrow is the day of the handover ceremony. The shadow clone hasn't sent back any news yet. Big brother will probably be delayed for a while. You should take over first."

"woooooo"

Life is not easy, so I have to perform to make a living.

On the other side, on the top of the towering Uchiha Building, Uchiha Madara looked at the wooden man working overtime in the distance, with a rare smile on his face.

"Brother, what are you squatting here grinning at?"

Uchiha Izuna walked in with a pile of documents and asked in confusion,

"Quan Na, look, how's the sculpture of Hasi La Ma?"

"Well, how can I put it?"

Uchiha Izuna looked at the slightly scribbled rock paintings in the distance and felt a little embarrassed.

"What are you hemming and hawing about?"

"We don't have the final say. You, as the person involved, should make the final decision."

Uchiha Izuna, who was in a high position, also learned Tai Chi and threw the question back directly and without leaving any trace.

"I think it works!"

"That's OK!"

Uchiha Izuna, who heaved a sigh of relief, piled the documents on Uchiha Madara's desk.
"Where did all these documents come from?"

Uchiha Madara turned his head and frowned.
"This is a complete list. That bastard, Fuyou, actually did it."

Although she was scolding him as a brat, she couldn't wipe away the pride on her face.

Uchiha's talent for business is even higher than his talent for cultivation. He can earn so much money for the clan at such a young age. This amount of money alone is more than what he, his father, has earned in ten years.

"Oh, it's because I gave it a good name!" (End of this chapter)
