I don't want to dance

"The Uchiha clan, what are you going to do?"

Konoha Hospital, on the hospital bed, Hashirama asked with a tired look on his face.After the last battle with Madara, he was seriously injured both physically and mentally. Even the man who is called the God of Ninja is no longer the same as before.

Over the years, Hashirama has gradually handed over the government affairs of the village to Toma, and after this battle, Hashirama no longer has the energy to take care of major affairs in the village, and Konoha has essentially entered the "two The era of Daime Hokage.

"It's not what I want to do,? The key is what the villagers think of the Uchiha family." Sitting in front of the hospital bed, Toika shook his head, and told his brother exactly what he thought, "The Uchiha family is very smart. ',? Draw a clear line with Madara in time, and even expressed unwillingness to claim Madara's body,? Refusing to bury it in the family cemetery in the name of a sinner. But even so,? It is still difficult to offset the villagers' respect for Uchiha The family's heartache, especially the older villagers who have seen Madara with their own eyes, Uchiha's reputation in Konoha is destined to plummet."

"Is there no other way to save it? The Uchiha clan will always be a member of the village... no matter what Madara, the former patriarch, did." Hashirama asked with his head lowered, and the long hair hanging down on his forehead gave His face was covered with a layer of shadow,? People can't see his expression clearly.

"There is no way,? But the key depends on whether the Uchiha family can seize the opportunity. I am going to set up an organization called 'Konoha Police Force', which is completely handed over to the Uchiha family to operate. That is to say, the Uchiha family is fully responsible for the safety of the village. On the one hand, they can be centrally monitored to prevent dangerous people like Madara from appearing in the Uchiha family; The Uchiha people in the position are thinking about how to get along with the villagers. If they can do the work of the police department to convince the villagers, then they will naturally not be isolated by the villagers. Really integrate into this village... Conversely, if they are still unwilling to let go of their arrogance and superficiality, no matter what kind of fate this family faces in the end, it will be their own fault. At the same time, I will promote Uchiha mirror to enter the village High-level, take up the post of my assistant officer... Although the child was born in Uchiha, he has never limited himself to the 'family', I hope he can become a bridge connecting the village and Uchiha."

After listening to Toikama's arrangement, Hashirama didn't say much.He is not good at this kind of thing, besides, his era is over... the end is at the moment when he kills his "Apocalypse" with his own hands, and at the same time, he wipes out his past self at that moment.

At this time, Toikama turned his head again, walked along the window, looked at the "First Hokage" rock statue on Yingyan Mountain outside the window, and said slowly:

"Brother, why don't you name the place where you and Madara fought the last battle 'Valley of the End'. I plan to let ninjas who are proficient in earth dungeon erect two statues of you and Madara there, so that it can be regarded as a publicity to everyone. Tell me, no matter what happens, Uchiha Madara will always be one of the creators of Konoha just like you, big brother. This fact will not change no matter what happens; A kind of warning, after all, it was Uchiha Madara who was finally defeated in this battle of the Valley of the End; three times... no, nothing."

The last half sentence, when it reached the mouth, finally stopped.

Three times, it can be regarded as leaving a witness for the bond between you.

If it weren't for the initial bond between you, I'm afraid Konoha wouldn't be where it is today.

At the same time, at the border to the northwest of the Kingdom of Fire—

In a burrow that was so dark that a ray of light could not penetrate, Madara successfully integrated the cells from Hashirama into his body.

In fact, he doesn't care about winning or losing that battle, as long as he can have a hearty battle with Zhujian in the end, his real purpose is to take the opportunity to seize the cells from Zhujian's body, and he also successfully bit off the cells from Zhujian's body. took a piece of meat.

According to the stele left by the Sage of the Six Paths, Uchiha's yin power and Senshou's yang power can be combined to solve the puzzles of this world and achieve true peace.

Looking around this dark place where he will be dormant for a long time in the future, Madara doesn't feel dissatisfied in the slightest.

The only thing he needs to do now is to wait patiently.

The day he was looking forward to would finally come.

……

Two years later—

"There used to be the place where my grandfather lived when he was a child. At that time, everyone in the family lived together in a simple wooden house, and my brothers and I slept in one room."

"And that area, which used to be a forest, has now become a commercial street with more and more shops."

"Xiao Gang, the gambling shop you often go to with your grandfather used to be a palm-sized place, but now it has been expanded to such a large scale. I heard that the boss has recently introduced a lot of new gambling machines."

On Yingyan Mountain, the commanding height of the village, you can overlook the entire Konoha here.

Today's weather is fine, the wind is sunny, and Hashirama's spirit is much better than usual. It is rare to leave the quiet room and take my little granddaughter who is about to turn five years old for a stroll outside.

Holding Tsunade in his arms, Hashirama sat on Shadow Rock Mountain and told Tsunade about the past of every corner of the village.

At this time, Tsunade, who was watching from a distance, stretched out his little finger:

"Grandpa, that river is called Nanhechuan, right?"

The river was on the edge of the village, and she rarely went there to play.

"Yeah, it's called Nanhechuan..." Looking at the river, there was nostalgia in Zhujian's eyes, and there were many emotions that only he could understand, "That's a very suitable place for swimming. .”

The grandpa and grandson looked at Konoha from a distance, while chatting with each other.

Tsunade, who has been impatient since she was a child, deliberately slowed down her speaking speed, fearing that her grandfather would not be able to keep up. She knew that his health was not good.Since the great war two years ago, Grandpa's body has deteriorated, as if he had aged a lot overnight.

"Does Tsuna have any dreams? What do you want to do in the future?" Hashirama asked this question that almost every elder would ask their children.

I saw the young Tsunade looking at the horizon, his mind seemed to have flown to the outside world, his eyes sparkling:

"I want to travel all over the world...and win casinos all over the world!"

"Haha! It's an amazing dream!" Hashirama laughed heartily, he hadn't smiled so straightforwardly and painfully for a long time, "So, after that, what do you want to do after winning all the casinos in the world? "

I saw Tsunade clenched his small fist, but his immature face was full of high-spirited pride, exactly the same as Hashirama before:

"After winning the casinos all over the world, I will return to the village and become the Hokage to protect everyone in the village! I will definitely become the first female Hokage in the village!"

Hashirama was stunned for a moment, and then, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Slowly took out a necklace from his pocket, and put it on his granddaughter's neck with his own hands.

Looking at the beautiful spar in front of him, Tsunade couldn't help exclaiming:

"Isn't this your chakra crystal, grandpa!"

"Well, that's right, tomorrow is your fifth birthday, Xiaozuna. This necklace should be regarded as a birthday present from your grandfather." Hashirama behind him said with a smile, his eyes gradually showed fatigue , but more of a sense of relief, "Xiaogang's dream is great. Grandpa believes that you will be able to realize it. In the future, if Xiaogang can not only protect the village, but also bring peace to the world, then I will It couldn't be better, after all, only when the world is truly peaceful can the village truly settle down."

Over the years, he has also thought about it a lot, and he admits that Madara's words are correct... Today's peace is just an appearance, and it is still far from real peace.However, this is probably what their generation can do. From the melee in the Warring States Period to the Ninja Village era, they have actually done a good job, haven't they?

The life and death of a person is only a few dozen years, and what can be done while alive is ultimately limited.But don't be depressed, and don't be impatient. Let the next generation continue to explore the road ahead. After all, the future belongs to them.

"Xiaogang doesn't need to be too stressed. If Xiaogang can't do it, then entrust this dream to the younger generations to complete."

"It has been passed down from generation to generation. Although we don't know how long it will take to achieve true peace, as long as we keep pursuing and exploring, we will always get closer to that peaceful future step by step."

"Grandpa is tired and can't do more things, but grandpa is very relieved and relieved, because you are still here... I believe in you."

Tsunade heard the voice of his grandfather hugging him behind him getting weaker and weaker, until the last syllable fell, and he felt his grandfather's drooping head slowly resting on his shoulders, as if he had fallen asleep.

The day before her fifth birthday, Tsunade lost for the first time the man who meant so much to her in her life.And what she doesn't know is that this is just the beginning.

……

Where is this place?

What am I doing?

This is……

Zhujian didn't know what kind of state he was in now, but Nan Hechuan in front of him was all too familiar to him.

Taking two steps forward, he was surprised to see his face reflected in the river... It was his appearance when he was young, the simple dress in the Warring States period, and his mushroom hair hairstyle that was ridiculed by Madara.

"Yo, Hashirama."

The sudden sound made Hashirama raise his head abruptly. On the other side of the river, the familiar teenager Uchiha Madara looked at him, just like when he first met 30 years ago.

"spot."

This time, Hashirama finally called out Madara's name without any barriers and without any psychological pressure, and the bright and hearty smile that was brighter than the sun when he was young was raised on his face.

Madara picked up a stone, weighed it in his hand a few times, and then threw it, hitting the water to face Hashirama on the opposite side.

"Next, Hashirama!"

Looking at the stone that came splashing with water, Hashirama smiled contentedly and replied:

"Ok!"

in reality--

In the middle of the night, in the room with countless seals and guarded by countless people outside, the body of Hashirama, which had gradually cooled down, was quietly laid out.

However, there is such a person who entered here as if no one was there without everyone knowing.

Madara slowly put down her knotted fingers, the kaleidoscope lines in her eyes swirled back to the original jet black.

In Hashirama's last remaining consciousness, he used illusion to send Hashirama a last dream.

This last sweet dream should be his farewell gift to his best friend.

"Goodbye, Hashirama."

……

After quietly leaving Konoha, Madara did not go back to his base immediately, but came to the place that is now called the Valley of the End, looking at the two newly built statues on both sides of the waterfall .

He smiled lightly and didn't say much.

In the 15th year of Konoha, Senju Bashima, the first Hokage, passed away at the age of 43.

After Senjujuma's death, his younger brother Senjugai took over the position of Hokage and became Konoha's second Hokage.

In the eyes of the world, the former two heroes of the Warring States Period, Uchiha Madara and Senju Zhuma, have passed away, and the era that once belonged to these two people has come to an end.

The ninja world has entered a new era.

The author has something to say:

The curtain between the pillars is officially over.When I write this, I am quite emotional. Apart from the male and female protagonists, the most important role in the whole article is Brother Qianshou. Zhu Jian appeared as early as chapter9. At that time, he was still a high-spirited young man who played jokes with his best friends. , When I wrote this chapter103, I passed away peacefully with my little granddaughter in my arms, and decades passed by.
