"Konoha...is booming?"

A strange smile appeared on Ayane's face.

If this statement were made ten years ago, the knife would have been correct.

But now Konoha is getting old.

Her teacher Sakumo Hatake committed suicide, the Fourth Hokage and his wife died in battle, Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, defected, Tsunade traveled around the ninja world without knowing where he was going, and Jiraiya ran away sadly because of the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki incident...

...So much so that the now aging Third Hokage is once again supporting Konoha, and its roots have become too big to fall. This does not look like it is flourishing.

"What, what's the problem?"

Tobirama was surprised.

"It's a big problem, my lord."

After Ayane finished speaking, her pure white pupils flashed with icy coldness, and she rushed towards the two of them.

Hashirama's expression changed and he clasped his hands together.

"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

Countless trees emerged from the ground with their roots and grew wildly. The ferocious trees shuttled at extremely fast speeds and wrapped around Ayane's body.

Ayane's hands were unprotected and she rushed forward.

The sound of clicking continued, and the trees that touched Ayane's body were directly shattered, turning into sawdust and flying around.

In Hashirama's shocked eyes, Ayane's figure fell in front of him like a ghost, placed her palm on his forehead, and gave him a light blow.

Hashirama's upper body shattered into pieces and turned into paper scraps carrying a decaying smell, scattered all over the floor.

"The body is light and fluttery. It is obviously solid, but it feels like it is not solid... This technique is really strange. However, in this way, you are the only one left, my second generation."

Defeating Hashirama in an understatement is not something difficult to do in Ayane's opinion.

The strength of these two people is too 'weak'. As Tobirama said before, they were resurrected in this state, not in their full glory.

There must be some constraints in bringing the dead back to life.

Otherwise, this technique would be simply too terrifying.

"What did you mean when you said 'a big problem' just now?"

Tobirama didn't care about Hashirama's death, as his brother was no longer alive.

All he cared about was what Ayane said just now, "It's a big problem"... Did he make a mistake in his judgment?

"I left Konoha eight years ago, so you should understand, right? I am not a Konoha ninja now."

Ayane seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"What?"

Tobirama's eyes widened.

Ayane said this, and of course he understood.

Renegade Ninja.

However, in his opinion, the defection of ninjas from the Hyuga clan was very unbelievable.

"Are you from the Zong family?"

"No, I am from a separate family."

"?"

People who are separated have a caged bird in their mind. How can they defect?

"Don't talk nonsense, little girl, how can the separated ninjas defect? ​​Did you unlock the caged bird?"

The sound came from behind.

Ayane turned her head and saw a scene where countless scraps of paper had gathered together. The body of Hashirama, the First Hokage, was recovering in a strange way.

"You're not dead yet."

"The trouble with this technique is that the resurrected person has an immortal body and unlimited chakra... it can only be targeted with a sealing technique. This is also the reason why I banned Tobirama from studying this technique in the first place. This

The technique is too evil, and once abused, it will cause great trouble to living people."

Hashirama kindly explained Ayane.

"Oh, that's it. Thank you for your answer."

"No, it's nothing. Speaking of which, it's us who are causing you trouble. However, you haven't answered my question yet."

Hashirama stared at Ayane closely.

"Literally, I am a separated ninja, but I just unlocked the caged bird."

"That's it...it's really powerful. Even Mito thought he couldn't do the caged bird spell at first. That thing is closely connected to the brain. Mito said that it can only be lifted by triggering the 'death' condition."

Hashirama looked admiring.

Tobirama felt tired, his idiot brother didn't understand the seriousness of the matter at all.

The people who separated from the family defected, and the caged bird was released... Then, freedom is like an addictive poison to those who separated from the Hyuga family, and it will definitely cause division within the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan is an indispensable force for Konoha. Now that something like this happened, Konoha's situation seems to be a little bad.

"You two, it's almost time for small talk. I still have business to do."

If Orochimaru is allowed to run away, things will become very difficult.

"But, if you don't defeat us, you won't be able to find the magician."

Hashirama said seriously.

Although the strength of the two of them is not that of their heyday, there is still no big problem in stopping Ayane.

Because they are immortal and have infinite chakra, they can always haunt Ayane as long as they are not sealed.

Ayane did not explain, but raised her head and looked around.

Hashirama also followed her line of sight and saw that the surrounding trees were densely packed with people.

About dozens of people.

No one has strong chakra fluctuations in their body.

One of the red-haired men had a golden chakra chain extending from his back, attacking through the air, making Hashirama subconsciously want to dodge.

Ayane reached Hashirama first and cut a large hole in Hashirama's chest with a knife. Hashirama lost the ability to move in a brief moment.

The golden chain also happened to be in contact with Hashirama's body, continuously absorbing and suppressing the chakra in Hashirama's body, making him unable to move even after he recovered.

"This is the same King Kong blockade as Mito... Are you a ninja from the Uzumaki clan? Why..."

Hashirama looked at the golden chains wrapped around his body with confusion in his eyes.

Why do the ninjas of the Uzumaki clan get involved with the Hyuga clan?

As far as he knew, there was no close connection between the Hyuga clan and the Uzumaki clan.

And Ayane is not an ordinary Hyuga ninja, she is a defected ninja from a separate family.

How could the Uzumaki clan, which had always trusted Konoha, join forces with Konoha's traitors?

What is happening in the ninja world now?

Hashirama suddenly felt that the times were developing too fast and it was no longer the era he knew.

"Not only that, there are also the rest of the Hyuga clan ninjas... and Uchiha."

Tobirama was not blocked from action. He had the ability to perceive and escaped the attack first.

He turned his head and scanned the crowd around him, and keenly noticed the presence of another Hyuga clan ninja in the crowd.

Among the crowd, there is also a need for an Uchiha clan ninja who has activated the three magatama sharingan eyes.

This force, which was like a hodgepodge of soft things coming together, made Tobirama feel more and more uncomfortable.

What happened to Konoha after his death?

Forget about the Uchiha clan, why do even the Uzumaki clan, who are close to Konoha, have to be associated with the traitors of the Hyuga branch and look like they respect Ayane.

This simply subverted Tobirama's three views.

Ayane was not interested in answering Tobirama, she still wanted to pursue Orochimaru.

"Leave twenty people and remember to use sealing techniques to deal with them. The rest will follow me."

Although Hashirama said that in addition to sealing techniques, Yin-Yang Escape can also be used to target this forbidden technique.

Unfortunately, Yin-Yang Escape is a legendary secret technique, and even Shiraishi has not been able to master such a secret technique.

The clones created by Shiraishi are just pure Yin Escape. Yang Escape combines natural energy and adds fragments of his own soul to create creations, which is fundamentally different from Yin Yang Escape.

"yes!"

Ayane disappeared from the spot, and half of the surrounding crowd also left, following Ayane in pursuit of Orochimaru and the others.
