Chapter 228
Three days later.
At the gate of Konoha.
The villagers of Konoha crowded at the gate of Konoha and shouted loudly at the ninja troops in the middle of the road.
"Long live Konoha!!"
"Long live Lord Orochimaru!"
"Long live Lord Namikaze Minato!!!"
"Hinata..." "Inuzuka..." "Aburame..."
Orochimaru led Namikaze Minato and the heads of various ninja clans to the front of the team, followed by all the Konoha ninjas who returned to the village and waved to the surrounding villagers.
"Tsk, Orochimaru is still so cold, or Minato is so enthusiastic, old man, why don't you pass the position of Hokage to Minato, he will definitely make Konoha take a more prosperous road."
In front of the team welcoming the Konoha ninjas back to the village, Jiraiya stood next to the smiling Sarutobi Hiruzen and muttered in a low voice.
"It's not my decision who will be the Hokage, and aren't you and Orochimaru also suitable to be the Hokage? I still want to see you become the Hokage."
Hiruzen Sarutobi still had a smile on his face when he heard that, but there was a hint of complexity in his eyes. How could he not understand the current situation of Konoha, not to mention that the adult was also in Konoha at this time.
"Bei Xuan, what do you think of these ninjas fighting for the village?"
At this time, the adult that Hiruzen Sarutobi mentioned was standing on the Hokage Rock with a complicated face looking at the crowd at the gate of Konoha. It was Hashirama Senju, and he was standing in the position of his own head portrait.
"It's great. Most of the ninjas here are not even Genin. They just know the Three Body Technique and do some basic tasks to become a ninja. But they still shed their blood and tears for their families living in the village behind them and for those villagers they don't even know."
Bei Xuan stood aside and looked at the ninjas at the gate of Konoha, listening to their cheers, full of emotion. Anyone who bravely faces the battlefield to protect his homeland is a real strong man.
"Yes, they are great. I wanted to build this village so that the children could grow up safely and let peace spread among these ninjas.
But... there are still children among those who came back, and even from the chakra coming from them, their strength is not even that of a Genin.
Tobirama, the monkey really disappointed us. Maybe I was wrong back then, but I have never changed my mind from beginning to end that the children don't have to go to the battlefield again."
Senju Hashirama looked at his younger brother with a complicated face. Sarutobi Hiruzen can be said to be a disciple taught by him and Senju Tobirama at the same time. He should be the Hokage who truly inherited their will, but why has the original meaning of the will of fire changed?
"Brother, we are ninjas who came out of that war-torn era. We understand that any benefit needs to be fought for with blood.
But Monkey and his friends are different. The establishment of Konoha and the position of Hokage also gave birth to another thing, whose name is power.
The benefits that power can bring far exceed those brought by blood and tears, and the cost is almost nothing. This is one of the reasons why Monkey and his friends have become what they are now.
I have given him a chance. I will go to them. They will spit out as much as they get. Konoha is a home, not a playground for those in power."
Senju Tobirama looked at the mark on the Hokage Building with a cold face. He was very glad that he invented the technique of Impure World Reincarnation. Since this forbidden technique of playing with the dead was developed by him, it has its meaning.
And in the heart of Senju Tobirama today, this technique also has a new function, which is to confirm the correctness of Konoha Hokage. Hokage is passed down from generation to generation, but the Impure World Body is indestructible.
He, Senju Tobirama, will become a shackle in the future to lock the greed of those who hold the position of Hokage.
"Grandfather, second grandfather, I might kill some people in the village after a while...kill them."
Bei Xuan raised his hand to catch a leaf floating in the wind and spoke calmly, but it was like a thunderclap in the heart of Senju Hashirama.
"Bei Xuan! Konoha never allows anyone to hurt fellow villagers! This is an iron rule established since the establishment of Konoha!!"
Hashirama Senju was excited when he heard this, and his chakra burst unconsciously, staring at Bei Xuan's figure closely.
"Brother! Listen to Bei Xuan, I support what he wants to do."
Senju Tobirama quickly reached out and put his hand on Senju Hashirama's shoulder, and at the same time formed a seal with his hand, and a barrier immediately opened to cover the three people.
"Bei Xuan, I need a reasonable explanation!"
Hashirama Senju reached out and pushed away Senju Tobirama's hand on his shoulder, and then looked at Bei Xuan closely, as if Bei Xuan would not sayAs long as he can come up with a good explanation, he will do something.
Bei Xuan's hand trembled, and the center of the leaf he was holding immediately broke into an eye-sized hole.
Looking at the leaf in his hand, Bei Xuan's mouth curled up a smile, then picked up the leaf and put it in front of Senju Hashirama, then smiled and spoke.
"Grandpa, you can't beat me in your current filthy body."
"What I need is an explanation!! I don't want to fight with you, convince me."
Senju Hashirama's eyes fell on the leaf in Bei Xuan's hand, and his fist clenched unconsciously. He tried to move his eyes away from the leaf and fell back on Bei Xuan's face, staring at Bei Xuan tightly, with a serious face and hoping for an explanation.
"Where the leaves of Konoha dance, the fire will also continue. Grandpa, the leaves can dance with the wind and be gorgeous because they absorb nutrients from the big tree and become green leaves.
But when the big tree has borers and begins to greedily absorb the nutrients that should belong to those leaves and fruits, the leaves on the tree will not get nutrients and begin to wither and become dead leaves. Even if they dance with the wind, they are just ugly.
And what I am going to do is to remove all these borers by myself, and permanently!"
Bei Xuan raised the leaf with a hole in his hand and shook it towards Senju Hashirama. He had never told Senju Hashirama that he would purge some people in Konoha.
Because although Senju Hashirama looked unintelligent and easy-going, he was also the same kind of person as Uchiha Madara, and even more extreme than Uchiha Madara.
If Uchiha Madara is a realist who recognizes reality and knows that reality is unreliable, so he places his hopes on fantasy, then Senju Hashirama is an idealist who has fantasies about reality, so he believes that reality is beautiful.
But the beauty that Senju Hashirama believes in is too beautified by his own subconscious. He always believes that the people in the village cannot hurt each other no matter what...
Even if he knows some of the darkness of Konoha, he always thinks that Beixuan can handle it well and let them reform... Yes, Senju Hashirama's idea is to let them reform...
