Chapter 700
[Time flies, and the two continue to work hard for their planned future by the river. However, everything in the world cannot be as expected, let alone two young men who cannot even control their own destiny. ]
[On this day, Hashirama, who had just finished training, was brought to his father by Tobirama, and learned from the latter the news he least wanted to hear - the friend who shared the same goal with him was from the Uchiha, the old enemy of the Senju. ]
[In fact, Hashirama had already noticed this, but because of his pursuit of his ideals, he had been subconsciously avoiding this. Therefore, when he heard that his father was going to let him take the opportunity to explore intelligence or even kill Madara, Hashirama's first reaction was to refuse. However, under the righteousness of the clan, Hashirama was forced by his father to take the task before he could say his refusal, and met Madara again by the river the next day. 】
["It was as expected. With such an undisguised relationship, it was only a matter of time before it was discovered."]
["I was quite surprised that the first Hokage seemed to have guessed Uchiha Madara's identity."]
["Although I don't know how long they have been together, in that era, the situation of the surrounding ninja clans would be generally known, not to mention the Senju and Uchiha clans. As long as one of them takes on a task, the other will definitely take on the opposing task. It is not difficult to guess Uchiha Madara's identity."]
["In this case, Uchiha Madara has probably guessed the identity of the first Hokage."]
[On both sides of the stream, Madara said calmly that he would skip stones first. Hashirama did not object to this. Following Madara's suggestion, the two of them each threw a stone into the water, which then fell into each other's hands. 】
【Unexpectedly, the moment they saw the stone in their hands, the two who had been expressionless suddenly showed astonishment. Madara was the first to react. He turned around and shouted to Hashirama: "Hashirama, I'm sorry, we can't play together today. I suddenly remembered that I have something to do."】
【"Is... is that so? Then I'll go back today." Hashirama saw this and quickly followed his words. The two of them each took the stone with the word "warning" written on it and turned around and evacuated without hesitation. 】
【But before the two of them could get away, the stalker who noticed their strangeness jumped out from behind them and fell on the river. It was the father and brothers of both parties, Senju Butsuma and Senju Tobirama, as well as Uchiha Tajima and Uchiha Izuna. 】
["Wow, they actually used stones to remind each other, and both of them did it at the same time."]
["According to the current ninja standards, this is a serious violation, not to mention the era when the ninja clan was supreme. If you are not careful, you will be regarded as a traitor and executed by your clan."]
["If they don't have this kind of mentality, it won't be their turn to create the future."]
["I'm not surprised that the first Hokage did this, but I'm surprised that Uchiha Madara did the same."]
["I can only say that before they lose love, Uchiha people are still very normal, and even more sentimental than ordinary people. Maybe."]
["What a coincidence, the other side is also ambushed by a father and son."]
["If one side does not arrange an ambush at this time, will the two of them stop their father and prevent him from chasing the other person?"]
["In that case, it would be really risking everything. Take the father of the first Hokage as an example. It is impossible for him to turn a blind eye to such an obvious betrayal of the ninja clan."]
[After a simple greeting, the old rivals Senju Fusuma and Uchiha Tajima, with their sons, attacked each other without the slightest hesitation, because even a moment of hesitation was enough to decide life and death.]
[At the same time, the two adults who were equally matched also knew that if they wanted to win, they had to use the other's children to create flaws, so while attacking each other, they also attacked the other's children. 】
【This scene immediately made Hashirama and Madara who reacted from behind burst into tears. While shouting to stop, they threw the stones in their hands without thinking and knocked down the ninja tools of the other side. The two stones carrying each other's feelings sank into the water at the same time. 】
【After the instant attack and defense, the two sides pulled away and resumed the confrontation. Hashirama and Madara returned to the field and stood in front of their respective brothers. Compared with Hashirama who still maintained a trace of calm, Madara was extremely angry at this time and shouted: "I will not forgive anyone who dares to hurt my brother!"】
["If one side is a little stronger, it will not be such a mirror-like situation. It's too symmetrical."]
["Such a fierce attack and defense, the ninjas of the Warring States period were allDo you fight like this when you don't agree with something?"]
["If you relax for a moment, you will immediately suffer defeat. I understand why it is said that ninjas who can survive from that era should not be underestimated. Zabuza, who thinks he is a benchmark of ninjas, would definitely not be able to get along with him in that era."]
["Haha, why did you suddenly mention Zabuza? You also said that he is a self-proclaimed benchmark of ninjas, but the fact is that that guy has much richer emotions than ordinary ninjas. You can't use him as an example in any way!"]
["Well... let's put aside the rich emotions. Compared with the practice of fighting at the slightest disagreement in the Warring States period, Zabuza's habit of explaining and bragging is the biggest problem."]
["This is not just him. It seems that ninjas in the new era have some bad habits in this regard. ”]
[“Tsk tsk, these images on the sky screen are full of hidden meanings. The two stones were deliberately shown sinking to the bottom. Is it to express that the friendship between the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara has come to an end?”]
[“You think too much. It’s just an ordinary scene.”]
[After staring at each other silently for a few seconds, Madara restrained his anger and looked regretful.]
[“Hashirama... those beautiful visions that only fools believe in, it seems... will never be realized...” Facing Hashirama’s unwilling eyes, Madara sincerely said: “Although the time is not long, I am very happy during this period, Hashirama.”]
[Uchiha Tajima was not interested in the exchange between the two. All his energy was focused on analyzing and judging the enemy’s combat power. However, after Madara clearly stated that Hashirama was stronger than him, he temporarily gave up the idea of continuing to fight.]
[Looking at Madara who turned around and left without hesitation, Hashirama couldn’t help but shouting: “Madara, you... Actually you didn’t give up, right! You and I finally have the same idea..."]
