Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

Even though Hashirama Senju is currently in poor health and his strength has been greatly reduced, he is not someone that just anyone can take advantage of.

And then there's Mito Uzumaki, don't let her being a woman fool you.

As a member of the Uzumaki clan, he was born with powerful chakra and was proficient in powerful sealing techniques, not to mention that a Nine-Tails was sealed inside him.

With Mito's sealing techniques, it would be easy for her to restrain an ordinary Kage-level shinobi.

This couple is virtually unmatched in the current ninja world.

Unless Madara Uchiha jumps out...

Madara Uchiha was busy planning the Eye of the Moon Project and had no time to pay attention to the two of them.

That old bastard Tobirama Senju even wants to arrange guards for them? Isn't that just going through the motions and doing nothing at all?

"No need, Tobirama." Hashirama Senju waved his hand, declining the offer.

Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju did not insist.

He was just saying it casually.

With the elder brother and sister-in-law's strength, there's no need to arrange for guards.

He only mentioned it briefly, just to be on the safe side.

…………

After Tobirama Senju finished eating, the two of them left with Tsunade.

Hashirama and Mito are leaving early tomorrow morning, so Tsunade is going back with Tobirama.

Moonlight spilled over the land of the Thousand Hands Clan.

"Uncle Renya, I want to eat a midnight snack!" Tsunade sat on Tobirama Senju's shoulders, swinging her two short legs.

Tobirama Senju quickly reached out to support Tsunade, afraid that she would fall.

"I want three-colored meatballs, and double the amount of red bean paste!"

"Didn't you just eat?" Lian Ye said helplessly. This gluttonous girl was really greedy.

Tsunade blinked her big, watery eyes and drawled out the last syllable.

"But I'm hungry!"

Senju Tobirama listened to his granddaughter's coquettish whining and looked at the little short legs dangling in front of him.

The Second Hokage, known for his strictness and ruthlessness, hesitated for a moment before ultimately refusing.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally blurted out, "Eating too much at night is bad for your health."

"Just a little bit, I'll just eat a little, okay, Second Grandpa~"

Tsunade suddenly clamped her legs around his neck, wrapped her arms around his forehead and swayed them from side to side, the ends of her hair brushing against Tobirama's cheeks and making them itch.

Renya glanced at Tobirama Senju's softening gaze and curled her lip in disdain.

He almost forgot that this old man was also a granddaughter-obsessed guy.

In the end, Tobirama Senju could not persuade Tsunade otherwise and turned to look at Renya.

"Kid, make her some, and also some hawthorn tea to aid digestion."

Lianye: "???"

Damn it, if you agree, then you do it!

Why are you ordering me around?!

Do I look like I have a lot of free time?!

"Uncle Lianye, please~" Tsunade pleaded.

Faced with Tsunade's coquettishness, Renya quickly gave in.

"Sigh, I know." Lian Ye sighed and turned to go into the kitchen.

It seems he really has become the chef of the Senju clan.

After finishing the dumplings, Tsunade went to sleep satisfied.

In the living room, Tobirama Senju looked at Renya, who was slumped on the sofa, and his eyelids twitched.

This kid just cooked a meal, is it really necessary to make such a fuss?

Lian Ye was seen resting her head on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Once you get used to performing tasks, you suddenly find yourself with nothing to do when you stop.

He prepared to go out on a mission after Hashirama and his wife returned.

As for Tobirama Senju's previous advice?

Please, he's already been very considerate of this old guy, he's only rested for a few days.

Uchiha Tanaka is a threat, but not to the point where he wouldn't dare leave the village.

If you really encounter them outside, just kill them.

The worst-case scenario is that he loses an eye and Uchiha Tanaka loses his life.

Renya strongly suspected that Tobirama Senju's motives for keeping her at home were not pure.

It feels like they really treated him like a free cook.

After all, this old guy has been eating quite a lot these past few days.

Renya just saw Tobirama Senju stealing Tsunade's three-colored dumplings.

He even went so far as to say, "Eating too much at night is not good; let your second grandfather finish this for you."

Hey!

It's simply that this old guy wants to eat it...

"Go back and rest if you're tired. We still have to see them off tomorrow." Tobirama Senju placed a glass of milk in front of Renya.

Hearing this, Lian Ye finally came to her senses.

It's getting late; it's time to go to sleep.

Lian Ye picked up the milk on the table, and just then, he suddenly stopped.

Seeing Renya's strange expression, Tobirama Senju nervously swallowed, trying his best to maintain a calm demeanor.

Could this kid have discovered something?

That shouldn't be the case; this is his latest research on a sleeping potion.

Unlike traditional sleeping potions, this one is much more effective!

It is not only colorless and odorless, but also has no side effects.

It can be described as an essential product for home, travel, and even murder and robbery.

Logically speaking, Lian Ye shouldn't have been able to discover it at all...

As Tobirama Senju waited anxiously, Renya spoke.

"Uncle, is your milk expired?"

He hadn't been home for a while, so naturally no one drank the milk in the kitchen.

This milk has definitely expired after sitting there for so long!

Tobirama Senju breathed a sigh of relief; so that's what it was about.

This kid's jumpy manner startled him...

He rolled his eyes at Lian Ye, annoyed. "The milk isn't expired; it was just delivered this morning."

He's the Second Hokage, the second-in-command of the Senju clan; he wouldn't stoop so low as to drink expired milk.

I can't afford to lose that person!

"As long as it's not expired, it's fine." Lian Ye nodded and drank the milk in her glass in one gulp.

"Uncle, I'm going back to sleep now."

Lian Ye had just stood up when everything went black and she collapsed onto the sofa.

Tobirama Senju revealed a smug smile, "Look how tired this kid is, he's fallen asleep here."

"However, it seems like too much medicine was added..."

With that, he bent down, picked up Lianye, and left the Thousand Hands Clan territory under the cover of night.

My older brother won't be home tomorrow, so I can focus on my research without worry.

P.S.: The bonus chapter rules will be changed in the future. One bonus chapter will be added for every 300 power generation points accumulated within a week. Gift earnings will also be included (one dollar of gift = 10 power generation points), with no upper limit.

I currently owe three chapters, but I'll make up for them over the weekend!

Chapter Ninety-Six: Big Brother, It Seems He's Dying

These days, besides cooking for Tsunade, Lianye has been training at the training ground.

I thought the Hashirama couple would be gone for several days, but they returned on the third day after they left.

Knowing that his elder brother was returning, Tobirama Senju brought Renya and Tsunade to the door to greet him.

"Tobirama and Renya both said we didn't need to come pick us up..."

At the gates of Konoha, Hashirama Senju, his face pale, managed a weak smile as he saw the three.

When Renya saw Hashirama's appearance, her heart sank.

Why is Hashirama's health getting worse and worse?

They were only gone for three days, how could this happen?

Seeing this, Tobirama Senju couldn't help but ask, "Brother... are you alright?"

He was genuinely worried about his older brother's health.

If I had known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have let him leave in the first place!

Hashirama Senju waved his hand and said with a smile, "Tobirama, don't be nervous. I'm fine. I'll be alright after a good night's sleep."

"Yes, a good night's sleep will do the trick!"

"I'm a bit tired from traveling these past few days, but I'll feel better after a good night's sleep."

His tone grew increasingly firm, as if he truly meant what he said.

It's caused by being too tired...

Mito Uzumaki, standing to the side, had tears welling up in her eyes as she gently took her husband's hand.

"Hashirama, if you're tired, let's go home and rest."

Her voice trembled, revealing her inner turmoil.

If she had known things would turn out this way, she wouldn't have agreed to go to the Land of Whirlpools with Hashirama.

When the two left, Hashirama was still in good health.

Just after leaving the Land of Fire, Hashirama suddenly collapsed to the ground without warning and fell into a coma.

This terrified Mito, but thankfully Hashirama woke up shortly afterward.

The problem lies here: when Hashirama woke up, his face was pale, like that of a patient who had been suffering from illness for a long time.

Clearly, this is a recurrence of an old injury.

When Hashirama woke up and saw Mito's worried expression, he simply said one thing.

"I'm sorry, Mito, it seems I can't go to the Land of Whirlpools with you."

Mito didn't say anything, but helped her husband back the way they came.

Whether or not they return to their hometown is no longer important; all she wants is for her husband to be safe and sound…

Upon hearing Mito's words, Hashirama gently patted the back of her hand.
