The tremors caused the earth to shatter, revealing its terrifying destructive power.
The difference in quality is too great!
Realizing this, some of the battle-hardened Senju clan members trembled with fear.
If that blow had landed on them, they wouldn't have survived.
"what happened?"
"Aren't you going to come any closer?"
"boom!"
Looking down at his opponent, Madara asked a question. The step he took shook the ground and brought the Senju members back to their senses.
Just when they were at a loss for what to do, Hashirama stood in their way.
He spread his arms to protect the doorway and the partition room.
"Hmph, be thankful that you escaped with your lives because of Hashirama."
"hateful!!"
It wasn't until Madara released Susanoo and turned away leisurely that Butsuma finally recovered from that terrifying pressure, his face extremely pale.
How could such a monster appear in the Uchiha clan?
Judging from the other party's appearance, he used such a powerful Susanoo yet acted as if nothing had happened.
Even Tobirama and Itama were surprised that this peer who had always gotten along well with Hashirama possessed such terrifying power.
They're really overestimating themselves, like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.
Judging from the attack just now, none of them would survive a single blow.
Hashirama alone showed no fear, but understood the message Madara had conveyed.
He clenched his fists, his mind made up.
(The power to quell chaos)
(That's right. As long as I become as strong as Madara.)
(With the combined strength of the two of them, we can definitely do it!)
He raised his hands to his mouth and then shouted loudly.
"Wait for me!!"
"spot!!"
Chapter 360, Section 358: Konoha Village? Konoha Country! (4K)
"Hey! Those guys from Konoha are here!"
"What? We're not going to get hurt, are we?"
"It's alright, they seem to only be looking for people related to ninjas."
The village echoed with Luo Ze's incessant chatter; some were terrified of the approaching people, while others were curious and excited.
"I heard that the Uchiha clan member is leading the team this time."
"That ninja known for having no blind spots! Uchiha Izuna?"
The woman squatting in the field harvesting was taken aback by what she heard.
"elder sister?"
"It's fine"
Seeing the children's frightened expressions, she patted their heads to comfort them.
The Uchiha clan.
That wasn't a good memory for her.
Hopefully, the arrival of this group will not disrupt the tranquility of this village.
……
"Lord Izuna, according to the report, we will reach the village in about ten minutes."
"Be on high alert."
"Also, don't get into conflicts with the locals. If I find out who's causing trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"This is a mission that the Hokage seriously assigned me!"
"Dare to damage the reputation of Konoha ninja? It's not as simple as just dying!"
Turning back, Izuna gave the group of people from various ninja clans serious instructions and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
The unified response from behind expressed the thoughts of the ninjas who were following them.
The headbands they wore on their foreheads were a symbol of their status as a "collective".
(So much time has passed.)
Looking at the rapidly changing environment around him, Izuna opened his eyes and gazed ahead, reminiscing.
Since my brother returned more than ten years ago, the Senju clan has been like a fire that has gone out, and they no longer take the initiative to start a battle with the Uchiha clan.
Within the clan, his elder brother strictly forbade him from initiating disputes without authorization.
This resulted in the Senju and Uchiha clans avoiding each other when they saw each other, except for a very few individuals with strong hatred.
This continued for a long time, until one day Hashirama Senju, the successor of the Senju clan, came to the Uchiha clan on his own initiative.
(Hmph, so you've finally arrived, Hashirama.)
(Oh, sorry to keep you waiting, Madara!)
I vaguely remember the two of them exchanging fist bumps happily, and the tribespeople were amazed by their friendly attitude.
Afterwards, Madara and Hashirama, as the leaders of the two clans, drank the so-called "cross cup of wine," which foreshadowed the "reconciliation" between the Senju and Uchiha clans.
Although some people were dissatisfied, they dared not express their opinions openly. Those who harbored hatred and could not let go of it had long since left the Uchiha clan because they could no longer bear it.
Those who obstruct peace do not deserve to enter the new era.
My brother doesn't care what those guys do out of hatred, but if things get too extreme, he'll be "executed" first.
They all knew that the road to peace would never be smooth.
Bleeding is inevitable.
Unlike Madara's ruthless approach to killing, Hashirama chose to beat and banish those in his clan who harbored ill intentions.
After stabilizing their respective tribes, they began the "nation-building" plan.
The funds came from the external expenditures of both tribes.
For example, the Uchiha clan would sell trees to remote desert regions, while the Uchiha clan would process them into charcoal and sell it to areas with snow all year round.
They established their own trading network.
It was a bit difficult at first, but fortunately it gradually got on the right track.
Along the way, they also attracted many other ninja clans to join them, and used the labor force of these ninja clans to develop new resources.
For example, using water escape techniques to manipulate rice paddies, or combining them with earth escape techniques to create water sources, and so on.
Over time, the "village" was established, and funding was no longer needed from the so-called "big name".
They can receive resource requests from various places and ship them out on their own.
With the expansion of the "village", it now has an unimaginable sense of size, and it would not be an exaggeration to call it a "country".
(Let me tell you, this is a house built by the great Hashirama Senju using Wood Release techniques, its quality is guaranteed!)
Sometimes you can even hear the Thousand Hands people using "shameless" tactics to sell their wares to outsiders on the streets.
Of course, these are all related to the economy and agriculture.
As for the talent, it comes from the "schools" that Ban mentioned.
That means that regardless of one's background or origin, as long as one is willing to contribute to "Konoha", one can enroll.
Furthermore, there are two classes: "Normal" and "Ninja".
It is said that Ban originally wanted to set up a "research" class, but he couldn't find an educator in this field for the time being.
At first, everyone thought it was absurd. Putting aside everything else, just consider where the educational resources for the "ninja" class would come from.
Leaving aside the teachers and the time and resources involved, what kind of ninjutsu can students without family traditions learn?
Let's not talk about A-rank or B-rank ninjutsu.
If you just come up with some ordinary transformation tricks, it would be too insincere.
This is indeed an unsolvable problem.
