"Byakugou, release!" Tsunade knew that she had to reveal her trump card. A pattern appeared on her forehead, and a huge amount of chakra gushed out from her body. A wave of chakra suddenly gushed into the seal, increasing the speed of the green lines on the seal by several times.
Fifteen minutes later, along with the Tsunade's cold shout, a powerful wave of air suddenly rolled out, causing the entire wall of the lab to crack. Fortunately, Haku immediately erected an ice pillar to block the collapsing ceiling.
"Tsunade, I didn't expect that we would see you again." The Third's body slowly began to shine, and two blurry figures floated out from within. Upon closer look, one would find that they were the First and Second Hokage. At this time, both of them were pleasantly surprised by the reunion with their granddaughter.
"I..." Seeing her relatives who had passed away for many years, Tsunade was speechless.
"Don't say anymore, I know. From the moment you tried to find Sarutobi's body and broke this seal, I knew that you are the pride of our Senju clan. Our clan has always valued friendship the most."
"Perhaps in the eyes of other people in the world, attaching importance to family might be a foolish move. However, this is a passion passed down from generation to generation. It has been integrated deep into our bones. If you lose your strength, you can still train. But if you lose your feelings, you are just like a walking corpse. You can't be called a human at all but a beast."
"Very good. You didn't disappoint me. Unfortunately, I can't witness your growth process. I think you must have had a hard time. After Tobirama and I died, those guys in Konoha should be suppressing you. Well, we don't have much time."
"I have been thinking hard in the Underworld all these years about why even though you obviously inherited everything from me and even have greater potential, you still can't use Wood Release. Later, I finally understand that there is one thing missing."
"Remember, Wood Release represents life. If you want to have a strong life force that can't be burned by wildfire, you must die a real death first. When things are in the extreme, they will always be reversed."
Hashirama's voice became smaller as he spoke, and he might go back to the Underworld at any time.
"Grandpa, in fact, I have traveled all over the world and guessed that it was like this. It's just that I have been troubled by some things recently and still lack an opportunity, so I didn't have the opportunity."
Tsunade was not surprised at all. Obviously, she had already guessed it before. Now that she heard Hashirama say the same thing, it was confirmed that her guess was correct all along.
"You already know? Haha, good. That's really good. You are really worthy of being my granddaughter. Remember that you are now the patriarch of the current generation of the Senju clan. You don't need to worry about your grandfathers' views to do things you don't want to do."
"All these years, I know that you have been suppressing yourself because you are worried about our views on Konoha. Fool, although Konoha is important, it's just something we built together. How can it compare to your position in our hearts?"
"You can do whatever you want. You don't need to worry about anything. A human's life is limited. Since you are still alive, you won't want to leave any regrets. Well, Tsunade, goodbye."
Hashirama waved his hand. He was a more talkative and cheerful person, while Tobirama was more quiet and cool. It should be said that he was a very serious person. He was the kind of person who would talk less and do more.
"Take care. Big Bro's words are also mine. You should be careful." Tobirama suddenly revealed a smile. This was a rare sight. After the two founding fathers finished speaking, they disappeared.
"Leaving no regrets, you say? Hehehe." The tears in Tsunade's eyes had already disappeared. She was no longer the spoiled brat she was. Today, she was the Queen of Ninjas, Senju Tsunade.
"Orochimaru, the seal on the old man's body, is the main seal that sealed your hands. Now that I'm able to remove them, the seal that cursed your hands will also be removed. Here, a part of your soul, take it back yourself."
As soon as Tsunade walked out, Orochimaru immediately came in with excitement and enthusiasm. As for how Orochimaru took back his soul, it was his own business.
"This is going to be interesting. Although Orochimaru's soul has been very weak after multiple reincarnations, without a Mangekyo-enhanced genjutsu, it would be difficult to hurt him. Now, he has taken back the part of his soul that was sealed by the Dead Demon. Three years later, things will proceed differently..."
Hehe, interesting. I'm very curious about what will happen when the time comes. Will Orochimaru take Uchiha's help, or will Uchiha help suppress Orochimaru?
Ryoha walked outside the secret base. Living in the dark for three days was really uncomfortable. Perhaps only Orochimaru liked this kind of dark environment.
"What are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so happily?" Bulma asked when he saw Ryoha smiling as if he had thought of something happy.
"I'm very curious about the outcome of Orochimaru and Sasuke's last showdown." Ryoha did not hide his curiosity.
"If he is still affected by the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, I can be sure that in three years, he will definitely be suppressed by Sasuke's 3-tomoe Sharingan. But now, not only is he free from the Seal, and he also does not need to use any reincarnation in these three years. Without Mangekyo Sharingan, it will be difficult to suppress him."
Hearing this, Tsunade thought for a moment and gave an answer similar to what Ryoha thought.
"I think the same, but forget it. Everything in the future is full of unknown variables. At that time, we don't know how things would develop. We just need to grasp the present."
Ryoha quickly put this idea aside and continued to think about the Flying Thunder God on his way to the Land of Snow.
"Young Miss, please stop..." A slightly anxious voice was heard by Ryoha and the others on the way out of Orochimaru's base. Ryoha, who was in deep thought, snapped back to reality.
Ryoha, whose train of thought got interrupted, was very unhappy. He looked up and suddenly found two figures in his sight. One of the girls looked familiar.
