The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Shortly after Hanzo walked into the restaurant with Hashirama and Tobirama, Madara and Izuna appeared on the street outside the restaurant.

"Okay, it seems like I'd better drink this glass of wine later." Hanzo said with a smile, playing with the small wine glass in his hand.

The other three people obviously also saw Madara and Izuna, Hashirama and Tobirama stood up immediately.

Just listen to Hashirama saying: "Well, Hanzo, just wait here for a while, we will go and come back."

Hanzo made a please gesture, and Hashirama and Tobirama went downstairs.

After a while, two pairs of brothers walked in together.

Seeing Madara and Izuna, Hanzo nodded slightly and said, "Chief Madara."

Compared with Hashirama, Hanzo's followers didn't have much friendship, but they fought many times.

When Madara saw Hanzo, he suddenly remembered his glorious experience of being "killed three times", and his face turned dark.

However, Madara is not a person who likes to speak harshly, and after all, the host of this meeting is Hashirama. For the sake of his good friend, he reluctantly nodded to Hanzo and sat aside.

Seeing that everyone was here, Tobirama winked at Hashirama.

Seeing this, Hashirama quickly said: "Now that everyone is here, let's get started."

Hanzo and Madara nodded indifferently.

Hashirama immediately formed a seal with his hands.

Hanzo and Madara were stunned and instinctively became vigilant.

Behind the two of them, Izuna and Genji put their hands on the handles of their ninja swords.

The next moment, several thick wooden walls were seen rising from all sides, completely surrounding the table where three people were sitting, forming a sealed room.

Hanzo and Madara also relaxed when they saw this.

Hashirama put down his hands and said, "This way no one will bother us."

Madara crossed his arms and said impatiently: "Hashirama, if you have anything to do, just tell me. As for disturbing...if anyone comes, just kill them."

When Hashirama heard this, he immediately wanted to retort: ​​"Madara..."

Before the words could be spoken, suddenly, Tobirama behind Hashirama coughed heavily, obviously reminding Hashirama to get down to business.

Hashirama thought that his goal had been achieved anyway, and it was okay to give Madara a few words to cheer him up. He immediately stopped worrying about it and said directly: "Hanzo, Madara, I think the purpose of inviting you here this time is that you

I understand, so I will tell you the truth. Nowadays, in the battles between ninja clans, children as young as seven or eight years old are often used to fight. I have no control over other ninja clans, but I hope that our three clans can make an agreement.

At least……"

As he said that, Hashirama's eyes darkened, obviously thinking of his two younger brothers who bid farewell to this world at an ignorant age.

"...At least let the children live a few more years of carefree life." At this time, the iconic smile on Hashirama's face also disappeared, and his whole person looked a little depressed.

It was also the first time for Madara to see Hashirama like this. Of course, excluding the time when Hashirama pretended to be autistic when the two met for the first time.

Moreover, he also had three younger brothers who died early in the battles between the ninja clans. On this point, he and Hashirama felt the same way.

However, despite thinking this way in his heart, Madara still couldn't hold back his bad breath with this mouth.

"Carefree?"

Madara sneered: "How can you be truly carefree in this era? Hashirama, what you do is just to let them practice for a few more years and then go to the battlefield to fight."

Facing Madara's sneer, Hashirama didn't feel depressed at all. Instead, he said calmly: "Even if it takes a few years, Madara, you should understand what I mean."

Uchiha Madara snorted coldly, but did not refute. He just turned his head and said nothing.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

At this time, Hanzo said: "Let's talk about something practical. It's really unrealistic to prevent underage ninjas from going to the battlefield. How about setting a suitable age line?"

Madara took over the conversation: "That makes sense. I think twelve years old is good."

Hanzo was stunned when he heard this.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but Madara's opinion turned out to be exactly the same as the age at which Konoha's normal ninja school would graduate in later generations.

The institution of Ninja School was founded by Senju Tobirama in the original time and space, and the various systems in it were obviously drafted by him. Although he is not the famous second-generation Hokage yet, but after hearing what Madara said, Tobirama

There was some instinctive movement.

However, this time Hashirama didn't give his younger brother a chance to interrupt. He said before him: "I don't think it's appropriate. Twelve is still too young. How about fifteen?"

When he said these words, a strong heartache appeared on Hashirama's face, as if he had made a huge concession.

Obviously, if Hanzo hadn't said that, he might have really wanted ninjas to experience fighting again as adults.

Tobirama naturally heard what Hashirama meant, and his face suddenly showed a little embarrassment.

In his opinion, his eldest brother's original idea was really too whimsical.

Not to mention whether Hanzo and Madara will agree, I'm afraid the Senju clan's internal resistance will not be small.

Even if Hashirama forced it through at the high-level meeting, the vassal tribes of the Senju clan would have to be persuaded one by one by Hashirama.

Hanzo glanced at Hashirama with a half-smile, then rubbed his chin, thinking about Hashirama's proposal.

Fifteen……

If Hanzo remembers correctly, Naruto's generation of ninjas should have been fifteen or sixteen years old at the beginning of Space Shippuden.

At that time, all of Konoha's twelve young masters were already well-trained ninjas.

Even Hyuga Hinata, whose personality is the worst compatible with ninja qualities, is an outstanding ninja who dares to take action even when faced with Tendou Pain whose strength far exceeds hers.

Hanzo secretly sighed.

No matter what he thinks in his heart, when making a decision, he must also consider the reality of the ninja world.

This is also known as doing as the Romans do.

The reality is that children in the ninja world begin ninja training at the age of four, and enter the battlefield at the age of seven or eight.

If you take too long a step, it's easy to pull off the egg. In Hanzo's view, if the age limit is set to fifteen years old as Hashirama said, the three major ninja clans may not be able to carry it out themselves.

On the contrary, Madara's proposal is much more appropriate.

Graduating from the ninja school at the age of twelve, it makes sense that this custom would be followed by the ninja villages for so many years.

What's more, even if twelve-year-old ninjas participate in the war, they may not necessarily be allowed to go directly to the battlefield to fight, right?

In future generations, Konoha will still use D-level and C-level tasks to train newly graduated rookie genin. Can't Hanzo just follow the same example?

Thinking of this, Hanzo raised his head slightly and said: "Hashirama, I also think that Madara's leader is right. Twelve years old may be more appropriate."

Zhu Jian suddenly suffocated.

Tobirama, who was standing next to him, saw Hashirama's reluctance, and immediately came out to smooth things over: "You two, this matter is important, and it doesn't need to be settled in one discussion. Why don't we come here today, and let us think about it separately before making a decision."

Hanzo nodded indifferently, and it was still a day or two away.

Hashirama seemed to want to take advantage of this time to persuade others in private, so his eyes were full of hope as he looked at Madara, who had yet to reply.

Madara wanted to refuse, he really didn't want to waste time on negotiations, but after seeing Hashirama's starry eyes...

"Female mouth," Madara said almost through gritted teeth.
