Comparing the two pillars, this pillar is too extreme!

He's actually become this powerful!!!

After seeing the doubt in everyone's eyes, young Hashirama...

He didn't say much.

He walked lightly onto the stage.

He used Wood Release.

Looking at the sky blocking out the sun,

A gigantic wooden dragon, several times larger than the houses next to it.

The Senju clan members,

He opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.

Is this the legendary Wood Release?!

Many of them had only seen Wood Release in their family records.

But I've never seen anyone in the real world use Wood Release ninjutsu!

Staring at the ferocious face of the wooden dragon and the powerful sense of oppression emanating from him,

No one had any doubts left in their hearts!

This suffocating feeling

Even with Senju Butsuma, they had never experienced anything like it!

They understood,

The boy in front of me.

His strength has long surpassed that of anyone in the Senju clan.

He might already be the strongest member of the Senju clan!

Seeing that the young Hashirama had stopped attacking,

Thousand-Armed Buddha finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The things young Hashirama had been doing these past few days had frightened him somewhat.

He was afraid that the young Hashirama might become unhappy.

He used Wood Release directly on all the clansmen below the stage!

If that's the case

Then even the Senju clan probably wouldn't have a place for young Hashirama.

Looking at the calm expression on young Hashirama's face and the wooden dragons created by his Wood Release techniques around him.

A complex expression appeared on Thousand-Handed Buddha's face.

After all these years, it felt like he was truly getting to know his son for the first time.

He originally thought,

Of all his sons

Hashirama had the gentlest temperament and was the easiest to talk to.

But now it seems that this was just his own idea.

Hashirama was too well hidden; he deceived everyone around him!

Even he, as a father, couldn't see through the true nature of young Hashirama!

However, Senju Butsuma did not dislike his son's current appearance.

Compared to the previously timid and submissive Hashirama,

He prefers the current, powerful, and domineering Hashirama!

Although the previous Hashirama

Sometimes, when they get serious, they can also have tremendous courage.

But in most cases it's still too mild.

Senju Butsuma did not like the gentle Hashirama.

In this chaotic era, only powerful and composed ninjas can truly survive!

Some of the thoughts that young Hashirama had previously expressed.

That's too idealistic.

Perhaps only he himself could accept it.

But now he knows that this was just his son in disguise.

Instead of being angry, Senju Butsuma felt quite gratified.

That's what makes a qualified clan leader!

[Tobirama Senju: Brother... why don't you really consider my suggestion? If you and the person on screen switched places... I feel like he's much more popular than you.]

Madara Uchiha: I agree with Tobirama's statement.

[Hashirama Senju: You two, for the first time ever, are on the same side, and it's all just to target me???]

The Senju clan changes its leader.

It was just a minor incident.

For most members of the Senju clan, it didn't have much of an impact.

Meanwhile, young Hashirama began a new phase in his life.

He believed that his top priority was to spare no expense.

Improve your skills in the shortest possible time!

Only in this way,

Only then can he quickly acquire the resources to change the entire world!

No strength,

All ideals are nothing but castles in the air.

There is no possibility of it being realized.

"Speaking of which... my ancestors did give me some inspiration."

"I have basically reached the end of the path of Wood Release."

"But it seems there are other ways to make me stronger."

"From childhood to adulthood, my physical fitness and recovery ability seem to be more obvious than those of the average Senju clan member."

"Could I try to find more solutions along this path?"

"I remember... my ancestors seemed to have a form... called the Immortal Body?"

As the young Hashirama muttered to himself.

Visible vibrations could be seen emanating from the air around him.

His appearance changed as a result.

Black stripes appeared around the corners of his eyes.

His forehead also turned into something resembling a black bullseye.

The outer edge of the pupil turned yellow.

20. Even without the three holy lands, you can still enter immortal mode?!

Looking at the image of young Hashirama in the picture,

Everyone noticed the difference in him compared to before.

But only a very few people realized what this meant!

[Naruto Uzumaki: Eh... Perverted Sage, the First Hokage's appearance, how come he looks so much like you... But... it seems like there are some differences...]

[Jiraiya: Idiot!!! You should show more respect to the First Hokage... Hmm... This mode seems to be Sage Mode... But it seems a little different, I can't see the First Hokage's summoning beast...]

[Tobirama Senju: Big brother... I remember you were almost eighteen when you barely mastered Sage Mode... How old is the "you" on the screen...?]

[Hashirama Senju: Hahaha, Tobirama, you remember it quite clearly... I did indeed master this ninjutsu when I was eighteen. Before that, I tried repeatedly, but failed every time!!!]

Orochimaru: Is this the talent and potential of the God of Shinobi...? Without relying on the three sacred lands, without the help of the three sages, he can enter Sage Mode on his own... I'm so envious. It's a pity I can't learn it...

[Minato Namikaze: Is this the First Hokage's talent...?! The strongmen of the Warring States period are truly terrifying!! I used to be proud of my own talent, but it seems I'm far inferior to the First Hokage!!!]

but,

It seems that young Hashirama's state did not last long.

He immediately returned to normal.
