RNP Chapter 421 Just How Beautiful Is Dai?
Chapter 421 Just How Beautiful Is Dai?
"Hey, Onoki, actually Madara was also resurrected using Edo Tensei."
After Hashirama had an idea, he immediately began to tentatively test the waters.
"What?!"
Onoki was utterly shocked. "Who did this? Who did this! Doesn't he know Madara Uchiha's ambition? The ninja world has finally achieved peace, why would they use Edo Tensei to resurrect Madara Uchiha? Who is it...?"
"Uh, don't get excited."
When Hashirama saw Onoki excitedly repeating the same few words over and over, completely losing his previous composed demeanor, he immediately became certain that the old man was indeed deeply affected by Madara's psychological trauma.
"Ban, he actually..."
Hashirama told Onoki that Madara was currently pursuing Granny Chiyo in Sunagakure.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Madara Uchiha's heart is made of stone, how could he possibly like a woman! Especially an old woman!"
The more Onoki listened, the more shocked he became. Finally, he clenched his fists and loudly denied it.
"Well, actually, in a sense, Chiyo was like a little girl to Madara."
Hashirama corrected one sentence.
"..."
Onoki's expression froze for a moment.
Upon closer reflection, it's true.
But is that the key point?
"Whether it's an old woman or a little girl, that guy Ban, no matter what, could never like women, much less 'pursue' them!"
Onoki reiterated this statement with absolute certainty.
"You're making it sound like Madara would like men."
Hashirama curled his lip. "Besides, do you understand Madara better than I do? People may never change until they die, but Madara has already died once, so it's not strange that he would make a change."

"this……"
Onoki was speechless for a moment.
After all, what Hashirama Senju said made a lot of sense.
However, Hashirama overlooked one thing: Madara's death was not a true death in the real sense; he died with the belief that he would definitely be resurrected in the future.
What truly led to Madara's death and subsequent change was his death after the Fourth Shinobi World War in the original timeline.
"Lord Hashirama, are you sure?"
After a moment of silence, Onoki asked another question.
"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes. I even carried their bags for a few days a while ago."
"So, Onoki, look at how Madara has become. It's time for you to get over your trauma."
Hashirama gave his affirmation and used the incident to comfort Onoki.
"Lord Hashirama, I believe you wouldn't lie to me, but..."
Onoki opened his mouth, but looking into Hashirama's "innocent" eyes, he swallowed his words.
After Hashirama gave his affirmation, Onoki immediately believed it.
But he didn't believe that Madara had really made a change; rather, he believed that Madara was definitely plotting something.
But I can't say this to Hashirama Senju.
This is the experience that Ohnoki summarized after serving as Tsuchikage for decades.
Given the current situation, Hashirama Senju will definitely trust Madara more.
If Madara were to be mentioned as having a conspiracy, Hashirama Senju would definitely try to alert him, and then it would be troublesome to find a flaw in his plan.
"Just what? Haven't you let go yet?"
Hashirama sighed. "How about this, I'll take you to see Madara, so you can witness firsthand the changes he's undergone. Is that alright?"
"Very well, we definitely need to go to Sunagakure, but Lord Hashirama, after hearing you say that, I've already half-gone with my mind, but..."
Ōnoki paused here, gritted his teeth, and decided to shoulder everything and pick up the will of stone once more.
Sacrificing some principles is insignificant in order to protect the peace of the ninja world!
"However, Granny Chiyo was the love of my life, and Madara Uchiha was a dead man who had passed away long ago. How could he be worthy of the peerless Chiyo?"
"I must go to Sunagakure and take Chiyo back from Madara Uchiha!"
"what?"
Hashirama Senju was stunned.
He is also one of Chiyo's suitors.
No, could it be that Granny Chiyo was really some kind of stunning beauty? Was she the white moonlight of so many people?
However, if that's the case, he can understand why Onoki suddenly said he had overcome his fear.
So it was all for love.
Not surprising then.
"Okay, fine, but don't bully Madara. You have to compete fairly."
Hashirama's lips twitched twice, and he reminded Onoki of something.
Bully?
While feeling distressed about saying such perverted and shameful things, Onoki, who had his eyes closed, was stunned when he heard this.
he?
Bullying Ban?
What the hell was Madara like in the eyes of the First Hokage? A cute pet?
Or is it that Madara is forced to pretend to be a good person because of his conspiracy, and is therefore unable to take action?
That's possible.
Onoki nodded to himself, confirming his guess.
"Lord Hashirama, let's set off."
"Okay, you go ahead, I need to buy some local specialties here before heading back to Amegakure."
When faced with Onoki's invitation to join him, Hashirama waved his hand awkwardly.
Ever since learning that Onoki was going to compete with Madara for Chiyo, Hashirama had no desire to go back.
He really couldn't stand watching those love triangle dramas.
Instead of reading these, he'd be better off reading Kakashi and Jiraiya's novel series.
Anyway, Madara doesn't have any strength now, so he won't pose any threat.
As for Onoki, after spending some time with him, he found him to be a pretty good person and likely to keep his promise not to bully Madara with his strength.
Then there's no need to worry.
And so, Onoki was taken to Sunagakure by the Flying Thunder Formation.
Hashirama Senju stood still, waiting for the four members of the Flying Thunder Formation to return and take him back to Amegakure.
As for what I just said about "buying some local specialties," that was just an excuse to fool Onoki.
"Huh? Didn't they say Grandpa came this way? Where is he?"
A voice came from the sky.
Before Hashirama Senju could even look up, the source of the sound fell to the ground.
The newcomer was none other than the Fourth Tsuchikage, Kurotsuchi.
"The First Hokage?"
Kurotsuchi looked at the first generation with a suspicious expression.
She was also familiar with characters like the First Hokage of Edo Tensei.
Why is the original character here?
"You didn't actually beat my grandpa to a pulp, did you?"
Kurotsuchi looked around, examining the soil as if trying to identify which patch of mud resembled his grandfather Onoki's ashes.
"No, your grandfather was taken away by the Flying Thunder Formation and went to Sunagakure. He..."
Hashirama Senju hesitated for a moment, but then thought that Kurotsuchi, as a member of Onoki's family, had the right to know Onoki's whereabouts and purpose.
Besides, this is a good thing.
If Kurotsuchi doesn't support Onoki's twilight romance, he can help persuade him and act as a helpful bystander.
"Your grandfather went to see Granny Chiyo."
"what?"
"Actually, your grandmother was not your grandfather Onoki's first love. Your grandfather Onoki was infatuated with the stunning beauty of Granny Chiyo—this is what he said himself."
He was too busy with work in the past, having dedicated his life to the village, so he never thought about it in this way.
Now that you've taken over his position, he's had some free time and is preparing to make up for all the regrets of his life before he dies, including those of his first love, Granny Chiyo.
Hashirama Senju began to speak earnestly.
