Chapter 166 You should kowtow to Mei Terumi once.
Chapter 166 You should kowtow to Mei Terumi once.
We discussed it for a long time.
Whether it was Hashirama Senju, who was feeling somewhat unwell, or Shizune, who was feeling extremely unwell, they could only accept the cruel reality.
In the future, there won't be any more questions from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire asking, "Who is the master of this Land of Fire, you or me?"
This solved the problem at its root.
At the entrance of the village.
Bai Mo and his group prepared to travel to the Land of Water as planned.
Kushina stated that she had already activated the chakra within Naruto and was just waiting for him to sleep so that it would be triggered in his dreams.
She wanted to stay in Konoha and search the ruins of the Uzumaki clan to see if there was any way to break the Shinigami seal and retrieve the other half of the Nine-Tails.
Lin will definitely have to go with Bai Mo and the others.
After all, the core objective of the next step is to make Rin the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails once again.
Hiruzen Sarutobi also stayed in Konoha to help deal with the numerous problems that arose after the death of the Fire Country's daimyo.
Tobirama Senju returned to the Amegakure laboratory with Orochimaru to begin their research.
The only exception was Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage and the God of Shinobi, who had nowhere suitable to go.
Going to Amegakure Village won't be of any help to the research.
The most helpful part of Hashirama Senju's body for scientific research is his cells.
Staying in Konoha wouldn't be of much use.
There might be some unrest in the Land of Fire, but with the power of the Edo Tensei Third Hokage and Mega Tsunade, it would be enough to resolve the situation.
There's nothing we can do to help with the extra tasks.
If we ask Hashirama Senju for help, we're afraid he might encounter problems and have to kowtow to the person first.
Therefore, Hashirama Senju, who was disliked by everyone, could only be thrown into Bai Mo's team and go to the Land of Water to capture the Three-Tails.
At least in terms of finding and capturing tailed beasts, Hashirama Senju was extremely professional.
However, Hashirama Senju was not a Pokémon-loving trainer, but an evil Pokémon hunter and member of Team Rocket. After capturing the adorable Tailed Beasts, he cruelly distributed them to other evil organizations for use in war.
"Here's some advice: it's okay to rest and relax, but don't be lazy. Even if you turn Creation and Regeneration into a passive ability, your actual strength hasn't increased much. Keep developing it."
"Also, I asked you before if you had seen yourself recover, and you said no."
I want to tell you that there was something seriously wrong with your previous condition. Even without seeing your face, I can be sure that your body's reverted state was definitely not that of a normal fifty-something.
In that state, he'd probably be over ninety years old.
As for the reason, you can figure it out yourself. Anyway, you've truly become younger and younger again, so you don't need to worry about it.
Before leaving, Bai Mo spoke a few words to Tsunade in a heartfelt manner.
After the experiment, Bai Mo adjusted the energy in the stone and had Tsunade try it again.
This time, she no longer had to endure the tearing pain and entered Bai Mo's "Immortal Mode" completely normally.
In this state, Tsunade possesses an extremely terrifying regenerative ability, perhaps even surpassing Hashirama Senju's passive regeneration.
This kind of recovery ability is somewhat miraculous in the current ninja world, but even Orochimaru, who was under surveillance and suppression by Konoha, could do it easily in the Boruto era.
The villain's lightning release blasted Orochimaru's arm to smithereens, but Orochimaru grew a new arm in a second.
It can even be inferred that even if the villain shattered Orochimaru's heart and head, it would be an instantaneous recovery.
The only difference between Tsunade now and Orochimaru twenty years later is that Tsunade's physical attack power is slightly stronger.
"..."
After hearing Bai Mo's words, Tsunade stayed in place and pondered for a long time.
After Bai Mo and his group left, she remained standing at the main gate of Konoha.
In Bai Mo's eyes, she looked over ninety years old when she aged.
Tsunade believed that Bai Mo was not exaggerating or trying to scare her.
So, why is that?
Tsunade, a medical ninja, began to reflect.
There are definitely many factors involved.
However, as Bai Mo said, she has now truly rejuvenated herself by borrowing Bai Mo's power, so there is no need to worry too much.
But Tsunade was still afraid of repeating the same mistake.
and so……
"I've been ruined by gambling and drinking, and I've become so haggard. From this day forward, I will quit drinking!"
Tsunade clenched her fist and made a firm decision.
-
At the border of the Land of Fire, Bai Mo and his group boarded a boat to head to the Land of Water.
The Land of Water may look small on the map compared to the other four great nations, but its territory actually includes scattered islands throughout the entire ocean.
These islands are also considered part of the territory of the Water Kingdom.
However, because it is an island, it is very difficult to manage.
Many rogue ninja from Kirigakure can easily hide on an island and escape being hunted down.
On the way to the Land of Water, Hashirama Senju once again raised that question with worry: "Won't the Mizukage object to us going to the Land of Water to capture the Three-Tails? After all, it is their tailed beast."
"It's alright, we'll just give the Mizukage enough face. Given our relationship, she'll agree."
Bai Mo waved his hand.
At this moment, Bai Mo's gaze was fixed on a small island in the distance where they were about to land.
The island's peaks were eerily struck by lightning and thunder.
As someone who had already mastered the power of natural energy and manipulated elemental forces, Bai Mo immediately realized that someone was playing with something resembling a low-end Qilin.
"How can we give them enough face?"
Hashirama Senju was curious.
"Did you see the lightning on that island? I bet that's the 'electric knife'."
"...What is an 'electrosurgical knife'?"
"The Raikiri, one of the Seven Ninja Swords, was taken away by Raiga Kurosuki, a rogue ninja from Kirigakure."
"The Seven Ninja Swords themselves are not particularly powerful or terrifying strategic weapons, but they are very important to Kirigakure, almost equivalent to the Hokage Rock of Konoha and the stone of Iwagakure."
"oh."
Hashirama Senju stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Is returning the important things to Kirigakure enough?"
"Of course not."
"When the time comes, you just need to kowtow to Mei Terumi twice in front of everyone in Kirigakure, that's enough."
Bai Mo smiled slightly.
Hashirama Senju: "..."
"Aren't I here to capture the Tailed Beasts? How about assigning me the task of capturing the Three-Tails instead? Just give the order, and I guarantee I'll find the Three-Tails within three hours, subdue it, and bring it to you..."
Hashirama Senju had a droopy face and clasped his hands together, pleading with Bai Mo.
With his hands clapping together, anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to unleash a Wood Release technique.
"Didn't you kowtow to the other four Kage at the first Five Kage Summit? For the sake of peace, it's no big deal, is it?"
Bai Mo countered with a question.
"Too."
Reminded by Bai Mo, Hashirama Senju's expression instantly returned to normal. He stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "How about I use my Wood Clone Technique to create a Transformation Jutsu and transform into Tobirama to kowtow together? That would be more effective, and I wouldn't feel awkward."
