The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

Otherwise, given the traditional nature of Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, they would genuinely be unwilling to disturb the deceased's rest, as this is a taboo matter, and on this point, they would agree.

But the survival of the village is more important than anything else.

"It's nothing. It's all for the sake of the village. When the teacher developed this technique, he may have considered the current situation. Just like you said, Yan, we shouldn't do anything unnecessary from now on. Let's just follow the teacher's instructions."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gently shook his head and said.

"what."

"Ok!"

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu both nodded slightly in response.

Looking at the faces of his two old friends.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back in the end. As a disciple truly personally trained by Tobirama (the others were more like shadow guards or direct subordinates, and their relationship with him was not as close as that with Hiruzen Sarutobi),

You will gain a better understanding of Tobirama, the Third Hokage.

In fact, it was quite obvious that they could discern their own Hokage's feelings and guess some of his thoughts.

If we fail, there's nothing more to say; it's all destruction anyway.

But if this situation can be resolved smoothly.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had a premonition that his two friends might not have a good ending.

I initially intended to give the two a heads-up.

But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, Hiruzen Sarutobi realized that it was all pointless.

Can they possibly change their own teacher's mind?

not to mention.

"I'm already dead, so don't think about it so much..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed softly to himself, thinking to himself.

Chapter 508 The Exhilarating Hidden Leaf Village

The few people who left.

Each side took its own actions.

Konoha, which had been in a deep slump due to the defeat at the front and the constant stream of bad news, was suddenly thrown into a frenzy the moment Tobirama's order was delivered.

Even if the facial numbness is strong.

Guangyin Village becomes powerful again.

The prestige of the First Hokage—Hashirama Senju.

But no one can compare to it.

The God of Ninjas is not a title that one's own people boast about, but a title recognized by the entire ninja world as the highest. It is the title that everyone acknowledges as the closest to, and some even believe to be, the ultimate powerhouse of the contemporary Sage of Six Paths.

Hashirama's mastery of Wood Release was unparalleled; he could easily suppress any of the nine tailed beasts, and even the First Kage of the other four great ninja villages combined would be no match for him. The battle at the Valley of the End further solidified Hashirama's status as the number one ninja in the world.

For the ninjas of Konoha.

The name Hashirama Senju is his greatest source of confidence.

In the hearts of everyone in Konoha.

Our own First Hokage is a god-like being.

For the various ninja clans in the village, especially the largest ones like the Hyuga, Aburame, Inuzuka, Kurama, Nara, Akimichi, and Yamanaka, this was undoubtedly a shot in the arm. These clans had been deeply intertwined with Konoha for over sixty years.

While enjoying equal rights, one also needs to bear corresponding obligations and pay a certain price.

If possible, they do not want Konoha Village, this great tree, to fall.

The interests that are intertwined are not so easily severed; even a slight provocation could cause serious damage.

But what if they faced the danger of extinction?

Even if these ninja clans were unwilling, they had to make a decision; survival was their top priority.

What if even the tradition is broken?

Even their entire clan was wiped out.

What meaning and purpose do interests and rights have?

Just as the members of each family were about to make their own judgments, this news that came from the village was, to say the least, quite shocking.

Of course, some people doubted the authenticity of this news.

But then came the news that a high-level meeting would be held that afternoon, and everyone's level of trust instantly soared to almost 99%. The last 1% was reserved for the meeting that afternoon.

Because seeing is believing.

That slowly passing time, the moment of gathering.

In the bright conference room of the Hokage Building, specifically prepared for holding the largest-scale expanded meeting.

They are already the heads of the various families who arrived ahead of schedule.

Beneath their seemingly calm and composed faces, a hint of urgency was hidden; they were eager to know whether all the information the village had just announced that morning was true.

Has the First Hokage, who was capable of overturning the ninja world, truly returned?

And whether they can truly regain their former peak strength.

After all, ordinary ninjas don't know what the Impure World Reincarnation technique is, but those in power in these great ninja clans, such as Hiashi Hyuga, would have some understanding of it.

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, developed a forbidden technique that defied human ethics. Three years prior, during the Chunin Exams, Orochimaru used this technique to summon the First and Second Hokage. While the specific details are unclear, it seems the two former Hokage couldn't unleash much of their power. Otherwise, it wasn't that Hiashi looked down on Hiruzen Sarutobi, but rather that there's a difference in strength between Hokage. At his peak, the Third Hokage was unlikely to even be a match for the Second, let alone the First!

Ordinary ninja clans might be immersed in the exhilarating feeling of the First, Second, and Third Hokage returning together.

Only those in power, like Hiashi, a powerful ninja clan, still harbored some lingering unease.

If the First and Second Hokage, resurrected through Edo Tensei, were only at the level of the Chunin Exams, then I would really say no. Hiashi would never bet the entire clan's resources on two Hokage who could even seal and defeat the aged Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He sat upright with an extremely solemn expression.

The Japanese team was on edge at that moment.

In the short time before the meeting began, the dozens of ninja clan leaders gathered in the conference room were whispering among themselves. After all, even if some of them didn't know as much inside information as Hiashi, as representatives of a ninja clan, they still had some brains. Especially now that Shikaku had not returned, Suzaku Nara, as the representative of the Nara clan, was the kind of person who could deduce some important information with his own wisdom.

Is Konoha alive or dead?

We need to see what happens in the next meeting.

"Squeak!"

And that is, about fifteen minutes after everyone had arrived.

On the left side of the conference room, the large door was pushed open.

“Da da da da”

next second.

Several figures filed in through the gate. The one in the lead, with his long, jet-black hair and familiar red armor, immediately caught the eye of the newcomers.

"!!!"

The ninja clan leaders in the lower positions could not hide their shock, and their faces showed excitement.

Even if it's Japan.

They both stared wide-eyed.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

No matter how much Hiashi had doubted the resurrected Hashirama and Tobirama Senju before, no one could suppress the shock in their hearts when they saw the First Hokage who had pacified the chaotic world.

This is the ninja god recognized by all countries and ninja villages.

They are the greatest pride of Konoha.

Then, when the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Sakumo Hatake, who was also famous in Konoha and known as the White Fang, appeared one after another, everyone's mood was like a roller coaster, with endless ups and downs.

"Greetings, First Generation Lord, Second Generation Lord!"

But no matter who it is.

At that moment, they all stood up simultaneously and bowed to Hashirama and Tobirama with the utmost respect.

"Haha, last time I was suddenly summoned back and my consciousness was erased, so I couldn't properly meet the descendants of the village. It was really a pity. Well, it's very good. The village has been able to develop steadily to this point, and everyone has made great contributions. Although everyone should know me, let me introduce myself. My name is Senju Hashirama. I'm here. You can all rest assured for now!"

Stepping to the main seat, Hashirama looked at the representatives of the various clans, including Hiashi and Suzaku, with a hearty smile, and laughed loudly as he spoke.

His gentle and infectious words made everyone below feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

Even the Japanese team, whose hearts had been restless before, calmed down a bit at this moment.

It's not because of the charm of words.

It's because Hashirama's presence is so strong.

He only needs to stand there to bring endless peace of mind to everyone in Konoha.

Especially after Hashirama uttered those words.

"Buzz!"

The powerful aura that Hashirama was clearly releasing was gradually revealed and grew stronger.

"Whoosh!"

Waves rippled all around.

The countless ninja clan representatives below, including Hiashi and Suzaku, all changed color at that moment. It was as if they were a small boat barely holding on in a storm, feeling the immense impact of the turbulent waves that could capsize at any moment.

It's not an illusion.

It was their biological instincts that were telling them this.

The man in front of them, exuding a powerful aura, could easily crush them with just one finger.

Everyone's hearts were trembling violently.
