Chapter 58 Chakra Doesn't Cry
"Here I come."
A golden light flashed, and in an instant, Minato's figure flashed between the five kunai.
The next second, a bright blue ball was placed on Hashirama's head.
That's interesting.
Hashirama had fought against ninjas who knew space-time ninjutsu before; his sparring with Tobirama was quite intense.
However, Tobirama's Flying Thunder God Slash was far less fluid than Minato's Flying Thunder God II.
Yes, times are changing, and the old must always be replaced by the new.
Hashirama couldn't help but laugh at the thought that his foolish little brother's once-proud title of "Speediest Ninja in the World" was now outdated.
Hmph, every time I spar with Tobirama, although he can't break through my defenses, his various forbidden techniques are disgusting.
For example, you're fighting perfectly fine, and the next second a shadow clone with a dozen or so explosive tags stuck to its body teleports to your back.
with a bang, his own armor was damaged.
And then, halfway through the fight, I get hit with a Flying Thunder God Technique.
However, after Tobirama used it that time, Hashirama didn't control the power well and accidentally unleashed a Wooden Dummy Dance, hitting Tobirama instead.
Hashirama: Really, I didn't mean to, I was just afraid of being ambushed by Tobirama.
Lying in his hospital bed, wrapped in bandages: Heh.
Facing the Rasengan that was about to hit him, Hashirama lightly jumped back, lowered his center of gravity, and stomped down hard.
The powerful force generated a blast of air that blew Minato's body away.
Minato steadied himself in mid-air and reappeared in the distance a second later at the Flying Thunder God Kunai.
"This power... is it worthy of the First Hokage, who is known as the God of Shinobi?"
Minato thought of Hashirama's granddaughter, Konoha Princess (Big Fat Sheep) Tsunade.
No wonder Jiraiya's ribs were broken back then.
"You're fast! Always bringing girls along!"
Hashirama laughed heartily, then clapped his hands.
Several enormous trees rose from the ground beside him, rushing straight toward the water gate.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Trees (Reduced Version)
Golden figures flashed past repeatedly amidst the surging waves of trees.
Despite the speed of the Flying Thunder God Technique being fast enough, Minato was still hit by the tree waves.
P.S. Since Minato was in a chakra state, Hashirama did not use Wood Release to absorb his chakra.
No, I can't hold on.
As expected of the First Hokage, renowned throughout the ninja world for his Wood Release technique?
Should we launch a defensive attack?
No, let's take a gamble!
Minato's figure disappeared into the waves of trees.
The next second, a Giant Rasengan several times larger than before appeared behind Hashirama.
Do you remember the Sword of Love that Minato held at the beginning?
Minato had taken the opportunity during the first attack to throw that kunai behind Hashirama.
"Hyperspace Spiral Dance Roar II!"
Under the dazzling light of the Rasengan, Minato's figure appeared somewhat unsteady.
Hashirama's back was slammed hard by the Rasengan, and a huge explosion rang out.
"Teacher!"
Naruto was a little panicked. His teacher had actually been hit by such a huge Rasengan.
It must hurt a lot.
"Don't worry, if Hashirama were that easy to deal with, I wouldn't have been captured by him back then."
The little Kurama on Naruto's head calmly took a bite of the fruit and narrowed his eyes.
Hashirama's tactics are rather underhanded.
Hashirama, who had been sent flying, regained his footing and looked at Minato with admiration.
Hmm, not bad. Considering his age, he's quite capable of becoming the fourth generation.
"Alright, that's the end of this little sparring."
Hashirama twisted his wrist.
[Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!]
The ground trembled, and a giant wooden figure appeared, swinging its fist toward the water gate.
"This level of ninjutsu can no longer be called ninjutsu."
Minato was shocked by this power that could rival that of a tailed beast like the Nine-Tails.
In a head-on confrontation, very few humans could defeat a behemoth like a tailed beast.
However, the pillars can be in use.
"How about that, teacher?
I'm pretty good, aren't I?"
"Mmm, teacher is so amazing."
Naruto nodded when he heard Hashirama's question.
The Young Nine-Tails he used to ride were all small, so how could Naruto not be excited to see such a huge wooden figure now?
Hey, why can I still hear the teacher's voice even when I'm so far away?
Standing atop the wooden figure in the distance, with his center of gravity tilted downwards, he controlled the figure to whack-a-mole at the shimmering golden light below.
Naruto looked up, following the sound.
Then they discovered that Hashirama was lying in the tree, eating fruit.
"Hey, teacher, what are you doing here?"
Naruto was surprised. Weren't all the teachers over there blown away by his strange father's Rasengan?
Therefore, it's clear that what's happening over there isn't a cloning technique.
"Heh, just a clumsy Wood Release clone. Any normal Tailed Beast could sense it."
Kurama raised his head and looked at Hashirama, who was eating fruit in the tree.
"But it's already quite impressive that Minato Namikaze could withstand Hashirama's wood clones for so long."
As the wooden doll's heavy fist landed, Minato's speed visibly decreased.
Is your chakra insufficient?
The golden flash stopped flickering.
Looking at the fist that was gradually approaching him, he turned around and looked at his son.
In his eyes, Naruto is resting his head on Little Kurama, eating fruit, and watching the battlefield.
Two pairs of deep blue eyes met.
Oh, I see.
Then I'll leave the rest to you, First Generation Lord... and Kurama.
In Naruto's eyes, his father's figure dimmed, and the last glimmer of light dissipated.
Just as the teacher's wooden fist was about to fall, he smiled at himself.
It's very cozy and warm.
"Teacher!"
As Naruto's voice rang out, the giant wooden doll stopped punching.
"Let's go."
Hashirama picked up Naruto and brought him to Minato in a few breaths.
Minato's chakra is almost depleted.
"Naruto..."
Minato looked at his son's face and wanted to touch it, but his body was becoming increasingly ethereal.
"Dad."
Naruto tried to touch Minato's body, but the touch passed right through him.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect that I wouldn't even have time to wait for Kushina."
"Naruto, your father is a bad father."
"Fortunately."
"Fortunately, you have the First Hokage, no, Hashirama and Kurama with you."
A tear rolled down from Minato's increasingly blurry eyes.
"Teacher, teacher, can you please save my dad?!"
Naruto tugged at Hashirama's hand, wanting him to help his father.
It's no use, just drag it along.
Minato could no longer speak, but his eyes, filled with a smile and regret, conveyed his consciousness.
Is this the end?
