The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

"...Huh? Tobirama, why are you here?"

When the banquet was about to end, Hashirama began to look around for Tobirama, and unexpectedly saw his younger brother chatting happily with Genji.

Well, maybe the term "happy conversation" is not used accurately.

To be more precise, it was Tobirama who kept talking to Genji, while Genji frowned slightly and looked hesitant.

But for Hashirama, who is already a bit stubborn, he obviously can't distinguish these things.

"...Genji, you can't just follow your big brother all your life, right?" Seeing Hashirama walking towards this direction, Tobirama quickly whispered the last words to Genji.

Then, Hashirama's hand patted Tobirama's shoulder: "What are we talking about? It's so lively."

When he opened his mouth, Feijian could smell the smell of alcohol coming towards his face.

Obviously Hashirama drank a lot of wine.

"Brother, why did you drink so much?" Tobirama asked with a frown.

"Hiccup... isn't this happy?" Hashirama burped and said nonchalantly: "Why, Tobirama, don't you feel happy?"

After that, he glanced around Tobirama and Genji with a somewhat suspicious look, and muttered in a low voice: "You must not be saying anything bad..."

Hearing this, Tobirama quickly waved his hands in denial and said, "No way...brother, we just had a casual chat, don't you think so, Genji?"

As he said that, he turned to look at him and winked at him.

Genji was still immersed in what Tobirama was telling him, and when he heard someone calling his name, he suddenly raised his head.

Looking at Hashirama who looked confused and Tobirama who kept winking at him, Genji was a little confused. After hesitating for a moment, he still forced out a smile and said: "No...that's right, we...we

Just a casual chat."

One thing I have to say is that Yuan's lie was not very good. If Hanzo had been here, he would have been able to tell at a glance that he was lying.

But for Hashirama who was already a little drunk, this was enough to fool him.

Smacking his lips, Hashirama seemed to want to say something more, but Tobirama was afraid that his brother would reveal his secret if he asked further questions, so he quickly smiled and said: "Brother, you drank a lot, let's go back and rest first, tomorrow morning

We still have to hurry."

Originally, Hashirama was a little dissatisfied when Tobirama said that he was drunk, but as soon as Tobirama mentioned that he was on his way, he stopped struggling and followed Tobirama quietly.

When Hashirama wasn't paying attention, Tobirama glanced at Genji one last time, his expression obviously saying: "Think about what I said again."

When Genji saw this, he felt even more confused...

After bidding farewell to Genji, Tobirama did not take Hashirama directly back to his residence. Instead, he approached Hanzo first and said, "Chief Hanzo, my elder brother drank too much, so we will go back and rest first."

Hanzo, who had just seen off Hinata Kagahiko, looked back at the drunken Hashirama. He didn't think much, just nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, you guys go and rest first."

The two nodded to each other, and Tobirama left with Hashirama.

After Hashirama and Tobirama brothers left, Hanzo saw that the time was almost up, and immediately ended the dinner, and everyone left in twos and threes.

"Genji, what's wrong with you?"

On the way back, Hanzo saw that Genji was a little distracted and couldn't help but ask.

Genji looked at his elder brother next to him, and was about to tell Hanzo what Senju Tobirama said to him.

At this moment, Tobirama's last sentence, "You can't just follow your big brother all your life," suddenly appeared in his mind.

The words I had prepared rolled around in my mouth before being swallowed.

"It's nothing, brother, I just think the banquet is a bit boring."

Hanzo didn't pay attention to Genji at the banquet, so he didn't doubt his presence. He just smiled and said: "I know you are impatient with these things, but today's situation is special. If you don't want to come to such entertainment in the future, just tell me."

When Genji heard this, he thought for a moment and just said "hmm".

Although Hanzo felt that his younger brother was a little strange today, he was not the kind of person who liked to get to the bottom of other people's thoughts. Besides, he was a little tired after a hard day today, so he didn't delve into it further.

The two brothers had their own thoughts and walked silently to the door of the old house.

"Father and mother should have rested. I won't go in. You should rest early." Hanzo asked at the door.

"I know, brother, you should go back too, my sister-in-law should be anxious." Genji seemed to have suppressed his worries for the time being, and teased Hanzo as usual.

"You kid..." Seeing that his brother was back to his old ways, Hanzo didn't think much about it. He immediately laughed and cursed and turned around and left.

I was still muttering in my heart: "Genji seems to be getting older, it's time to care about his life-long events..."

…

The next day, just after dawn, Hanzo got up.

Today is the day for Hashirama and Tobirama to leave.

The two brothers had already made an agreement with Hanzo and set out early in the morning. Hanzo also got up early to see off the two guests who had been staying with the Shimada clan for half a year.

Next to her, Terumi Kaoru was still sleeping soundly. Hanzo did not wake her up and quietly left the patriarch's mansion.

Arriving at Brother Hashirama's house, the two brothers happened to open the door and come out.

"Hey, Hanzo, morning."

After a night's rest, Hashirama looked much more normal than last night. When he saw Hanzo, his eyes immediately lit up and he said hello.

"Good morning, Hashirama, Tobirama."

Shaking his head helplessly, Hanzo replied casually.

"Why are you the only one who comes to see us off? Where are the others?" Hashirama turned his head and looked around.

Hanzo immediately smiled when he heard this and said, "Why, do you still want me to hold a farewell party for you?"

"That's not necessary." Hashirama scratched his head and laughed: "That's good. Soon we will all be a family. There is no need to be polite. It's enough that you can come and see us off. Let's go.

Bar."

With that said, he took Hashirama with him and prepared to set off.

"Let's go." Hanzo followed.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the gate of the Shimada clan's residence.

"Hashirama, prepare to contact each ninja clan as soon as possible after returning. The sooner the ninja village is established, the better." Hanzo asked.

"Don't worry Hanzo."

After not returning to his family for half a year, Hashirama was inevitably a little anxious to return home, and there was also a hint of eagerness on his face.

However, in the face of Hanzo's instructions, Hashirama still solemnly said: "Don't worry Hanzo, after I get back and smoothen the family affairs, I will immediately start contacting the various ninja clans."

"That's good." Hanzo nodded, and then said: "Then, see you later, Hashirama, Tobirama."

"I'll regret it some time, Hanzo (Hanzo clan leader)." Hashirama and Tobirama looked at each other and said together.

Then, the Thousand Hand Brothers turned around and set off.

Hanzo stood at the door of the station, watching the two figures disappear into the horizon.

After a moment of silence, he turned and walked towards the family...
