Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 204 Hey, does your brother need another younger brother?

As Uchiha Izuna and Tobirama grinned, their sleeves rolled up, their faces almost touching, a sudden voice startled everyone present.

"Who goes there!"

Hashirama Senju frowned, instantly entering a state of alert, his muscles tensing, and deep blue chakra spreading throughout his body.

"Huh, that sound?"

On the contrary, Madara Uchiha, upon hearing this voice, wore a strange expression, raised his black eyes, and shifted his gaze in that direction.

When he saw a familiar curly-haired man sitting seriously next to Hasi Hot Mom's newlywed wife, chatting and laughing, this icy ninja demon revealed a rare smile.

"Big brother, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Uchiha Izuna immediately ignored his adversary, Senju Tobirama, and rushed over excitedly.

Looking Uchiha Gin up and down, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, his eyes gleamed with undisguised joy.

"I just finished a mission and came back. I saw this place was quite lively, so I came over to take a look~"

Uchiha Gin, who was having a lively conversation with Senju Momoka, explained to his dear little cousin without turning his head.

"Oh my, ma'am, how do you take care of your skin? It's so supple and smooth!"

"Well, it's natural. I usually only use ***."

"Ah! I use it too~"

"Really? Let me tell you, *** needs to be used in combination."

Uchiha Gin and Senju Momoka casually exchanged beauty tips, their relaxed atmosphere instantly dissolving the tense atmosphere that had just been tense.

"Madara, who is he?"

Although Hashirama Senju found the curly-haired man somewhat familiar, he couldn't quite place him. He then turned to Madara Uchiha, whose expression remained unchanged, and asked in a puzzled tone.

"He's my brother; you should have met him a few times."

Madara Uchiha thought for a moment, then informed Hashirama Senju of Gin Uchiha's identity, but his brow furrowed slightly.

Is the hot mom from Haxi unwilling to talk about that matter?

"That time at Namaka River?"

This answer awakened Hashirama Senju's memories, and he immediately asked a question.

"Um."

"Huh? Wasn't he beaten to death by his father?"

Hashirama Senju exclaimed in shock. He had always believed that the man who had served alongside Uchiha Tajima back then had been killed by his father with a single punch.

He felt guilty about this for a long time, after all, he had never seen anyone survive a punch from Senju Butsuma.

"He's not dead. I saw him a few years ago."

A cold voice came from the side. Senju Tobirama stood there, arms crossed, his scarlet eyes scrutinizing Uchiha Gin—or more precisely, scrutinizing his thick, curly hair.

"Back when we were hunting down the Hagoromo clan, he helped the remnants of the Hagoromo clan escape from the Land of Fire."

"Is that the time Koji sacrificed himself?"

Speaking of the Hagoromo clan, Hashirama Senju's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again. They still hadn't been able to find the reason for Koji Senju's sacrifice.

The clues at the scene were very strange, and even the despicable and cunning Tobirama Senju couldn't find out anything.

"Cousin, what are you doing here?"

Compared to the Senju brothers, who were caught in a dilemma, Madara Uchiha, who was already slightly drunk, curiously asked Gin Uchiha,

His cousin was always low-key, so it was unexpected that he would end up in such an occasion.

"Hi, this isn't Miss Tao Hua's wedding celebration. As her best friend, I've come to offer my congratulations!"

Gin Uchiha clapped his hands, a familiar expression on his face, while simultaneously rummaging in his pockets.

"Do you know her?"

Madara Uchiha was somewhat bewildered; how come he didn't know that Gin Uchiha had friends in the Senju clan?

"What's going on? You know this Uchiha?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Gin's words, Tobirama Senju couldn't hold back any longer.

He had investigated for a long time, even finding out what color underwear Senju Momoka wore. There was no information in the records that this woman had any connection with the Uchiha clan.

"ha?"

The most confused person was actually Momoka Senju herself. She swore that this was the first time she had ever met Gin Uchiha. She had only chatted with this seemingly harmless man for a few minutes, and suddenly he said that she was his good friend.

"No, this is the first time we've met."

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Uchiha Gin quickly waved his hand and explained,

"However, I hit it off with Miss Momoka at first sight, just like old friends~"

"Tch~"

Everyone immediately lost interest; it turned out he was just too outgoing.

"Here you go~ I just got back from a mission, and I didn't prepare any special gifts. Consider this gold my red envelope~"

As he spoke, Uchiha Gin pulled a large gold brick from his small backpack and placed it in Senju Momoka's delicate hand.

"Oh? This is too expensive, I can't accept this!"

The heavy gold was almost too much for even a powerful ninja like Senju Momoka to handle. Looking at the gleaming gold brick before her, she was somewhat at a loss.

You see, she'd never seen so much money in her life, and nervously tried to refuse, but to her surprise, the other person then pulled out a gold bar of the same size and stuffed it into her hand.

"Don't mention it, this is the least valuable gift I could give you."

After pulling out a second gold brick, Uchiha Gin continued to pull out a bunch of gold bricks one after another until more than a dozen gold bricks completely overwhelmed Senju Momoka's figure, at which point he stopped this extravagant display.

"It really is gold."

Witnessing this scene, Tobirama Senju immediately rushed over, randomly grabbed a gold brick, examined it closely, and confirmed that it was pure gold. He was immediately shocked.

There's enough gold right here to buy a whole city.

"Haha, Madara, is your brother a businessman?"

Hashirama Senju, who had never seen so much money before, was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He quickly asked Madara Uchiha who his older brother was.

"No, my brother is a prison guard. As for the gold, I don't know where he got it from."

Madara Uchiha was already used to Gin Uchiha's extravagant spending; he didn't value money much.

So whenever his cousin gave him gold bricks during holidays, he would just toss them to his younger brother. Now, the gold bricks in Izuna's house should be enough to build a house, right?

"Tsk, does your brother need a younger brother?"

"ha?"

"Um, I'd like to sign up for Tobirama."

On this side, Tobirama Senju, completely unaware that he had been betrayed, dropped the gold brick in his hand and looked at Gin Uchiha, whom he hadn't seen for many years, with a strange expression.

After scrutinizing him for a while, he was surprised to find that the curly-haired Uchiha in front of him still looked as young as he had six years ago, without the slightest trace of time.

"Hey, how come you haven't gotten old?"

Great learners love to ask questions, and even if the other party is a mortal enemy, it cannot stop Tobirama Senju's insatiable curiosity.

"Well, maybe it's the power of money~"

Having just finished his lavish spending spree, Uchiha Gin replied ambiguously.

Tobirama Senju didn't know about the Yin Seal, and he didn't need to explain it to this hateful white-haired guy. What if he told him and the other guy went back and figured it out all at once? Wouldn't he be aiding the enemy?

Haha, so your donation of funds wasn't actually aiding the enemy?

Well, consider it payment for that brat's life in the subdistrict. I still have to rent that brat out for many years to come.

By attaching the scattered gold bricks to Senju Itama's notes, the suspicion that Uchiha Gin had sided with the enemy was instantly cleared.

"Mr. Yin, you are such a generous and kind person."

As the saying goes, money can move people's hearts. Even if it's an enemy, if they shower you with so much money, it wouldn't be right not to say a few nice words.

"Oh, Miss Tao Hua, you're too kind. We're all family, all family~"

Uchiha Gin waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that given their relationship, there was no need for formalities.

"Uchiha Gin, is it? I, Senju Hashirama, will be your friend."

Faced with the benevolent Uchiha Gin before him, Hashirama Senju, who already had grand plans in mind, immediately extended his hand, indicating that their relationship could take another step forward.

Since the First Hokage has said so, Gin Uchiha can't refuse to save face.

After all, he's going to be the future leader of Konoha; consider this gold brick as an initial investment.

He then extended his hand and shook it, speaking very politely about Uchiha Madara.

"You're too kind. My younger cousin often receives your help, and as his older brother, I'm very grateful for your leniency."

"Ugh~ What nonsense are you talking about!"

Although slightly drunk, the younger cousin still heard Uchiha Gin's words clearly. He immediately slammed down his glass and retorted angrily.

"Alright, alright, I know what's wrong with you. Have you started having trouble seeing clearly lately?"

Rolling his eyes, Uchiha Gin righted the overturned wine glass on the table and asked,

"Hmph! No."

Startled by Uchiha Gin's question, Uchiha Madara stubbornly retorted, "..."

"Okay, okay, I'll check you out when we get back. Just be careful, it won't be anything serious."

Gin Uchiha, sensing that Madara Uchiha's Sharingan wasn't in good condition, didn't continue to expose his younger brother's secrets.

After shaking hands with Hashirama Senju, he naturally sat down at the table, looked at the various expressions on the faces of the people present, raised his wine glass, and offered his congratulations.

"Congratulations to Miss Momoka and Hashirama's brother on their marriage! I'll drink first, you can drink as you like~"

After downing a glass of wine, Uchiha Gin's smile widened. He never expected to be able to attend the First Hokage's wedding; it was truly a precious experience.

"Mr. Yin, let me toast you~"

After carefully arranging the gold bricks, a beaming Senju Momoka, holding a cup of wine, bowed to Uchiha Bank, her lips slightly parted.

"You're too kind, I wish you a healthy baby soon!"

You'd better work harder, time is running out.

Although the actress has changed, I hope Tsunade will still be around in the future, otherwise there will be less fun.

"Hehe, thank you for your kind words~"

"Mr. Yin, calling you 'sir' feels a bit formal. Since you're Madara's older brother, I'll call you Brother Yin too!"

Hashirama Senju, who could see the goodwill in Gin Uchiha's eyes, happily raised his wine glass and tried to get closer to Gin.

Hmph~ If we take down Madara's brother first, will Madara be far behind?

That chapter might be delayed.
