After the golden light faded, Senju Hashirama was seen stretching mightily.
"Ah!!! That was a wonderful nap!
Huh?! What's going on?!
Wasn't I dead? How am I alive again!!!"
"Hashirama..."
Uchiha Madara stared at the tall, long-haired man before him, his expression complicated and his gaze affectionate.
The moment Senju Hashirama saw Uchiha Madara, he was startled out of his wits!
"Hey!!!!! Madara?!!!
I never thought we'd see each other again after we died!!!
Madara!!! I missed you so much!!!"
Whoosh! Thump!!!
In an instant, Senju Hashirama darted over like a koala and clung to Uchiha Madara!
Uchiha Madara, in turn, raised his fist and slammed it into Senju Hashirama's head!
"You idiot!!! Quiet down, will you!!!"
Though he said that, Ito Hirofumi noticed the corners of Uchiha Madara's mouth curling upward.
Senju Hashirama looked at Uchiha Madara plaintively, pouting as he held his head.
"Madara... why'd you hit me~~~
I know you hate physical contact, but we haven't seen each other in so long! I missed you! Let me hug you for a bit~~~~"
Ito Hirofumi got goosebumps all over at Senju Hashirama's coquettish tone!
Meanwhile, Senju Tobirama felt his heart shatter!
His older brother hadn't even noticed his own little brother, yet he'd spotted Uchiha Madara at a glance!
So in his older brother's heart, he really ranked below Uchiha Madara!!!
The Uchiha really were evil!!!
They'd stolen his older brother's heart!!!
Aaaah!!! Evil Uchiha!!!
Uchiha Madara's face flushed red when he heard Senju Hashirama's words!
Thump!!!!
"Ow~~ Madara, what are you doing~~~ Why'd you hit me again~~~"
"You idiot! Get a grip on the situation!!! We're not dead anymore—we've been brought back to life!!! And we're not in the Underworld, either! Look over there. Do you know who that is?"
Following the direction Uchiha Madara pointed, Senju Hashirama looked over...
"Huh? Tobirama! What are you doing here?!"
After saying that, Senju Hashirama turned his gaze back to Uchiha Madara.
"Oh, Madara! So Tobirama's here. Whatever! Hurry up and tell me what's going on?!"
Ito Hirofumi could've sworn he heard the sound of glass shattering from Senju Tobirama...
Especially when he saw Tobirama clutching his chest.
Had the guy's heart really shattered?!
Who would've thought that after his older brother came back to life, he'd shout and embrace Uchiha Madara, then say only, "Oh, you're here too," to his own little brother?
Who could possibly bear that?!
A strange thought suddenly flashed through Ito Hirofumi's mind!
The scheming frog keeps feeling your belly!!!
Could this actually be the real reason Senju Tobirama held a grudge against the Uchiha?!
All at once, a cheesy, full-length romance drama appeared in Ito Hirofumi's mind.
A powerful, handsome, wealthy man had stolen his older brother's affection.
So the little brother worked hard, eventually seized power, and used it to target the clan of the man who'd stolen his older brother away!
So...
Was this the truth behind the evil Uchiha?!
At the thought, Ito Hirofumi stared strangely at the three men before him...
The aloof heartthrob, Uchiha Madara.
Senju Hashirama, chattering away and circling around Uchiha Madara.
And Senju Tobirama, whose heart had been shattered...
Fine, fine, fine!!!
Naruto, so this was the kind of thing you were going to pull on me?!!!
No wonder Konoha had so many bromances, generation after generation. So it all started with you guys!!!
Just as Ito Hirofumi was imagining this epic, cheesy romance drama, the system's voice interrupted his lewd daydream.
[Congratulations, Host! You have successfully summoned a spirit from the Underworld and obtained the summoned beast Senju Hashirama! Randomly drawing one of the target's abilities for the Host! Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the reincarnated Asura's Chakra! Asura Chakra has been loaded into the Host's body!]
He'd gotten Indra's Chakra from Uchiha Madara, and now he'd gotten Asura's Chakra from Senju Hashirama!
What was the system up to?!
With the Chakra of both Indra and Asura in his body, was the system trying to turn him into the Sage of Six Paths?!
More importantly, after obtaining Indra's Chakra, Ito Hirofumi had already noticed that Uzumaki Naruto acted differently toward him. And now he had Asura's Chakra too!
What was this supposed to make him?!
Good grief!
Would Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, Uzumaki Naruto, and Uchiha Sasuke all end up following him around day in and day out?!
Was he going to become one of the boys' club too?!
At the thought, Ito Hirofumi shuddered...
He hurriedly shook his head, banishing the bizarre idea, and quickly pictured what Yamanaka Ino would look like when she grew up!
He was straight!
He was straight!!
He was straight!!!
Ito Hirofumi had been wondering what kind of ability he'd get from Senju Hashirama. He'd had a few possibilities in mind, like the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai, Sage Body, or Senjutsu.
He just hadn't expected to get Asura's Chakra.
Had the system rigged the draw?!
He'd gotten Indra's Chakra from Uchiha Madara, and now he'd gotten Asura's Chakra...
Ito Hirofumi couldn't help but suspect the system!
Still, no matter how he looked at it, he'd come out ahead. After all, the abilities he'd considered might all develop from Asura's Chakra. For example, no one else in the Senju Clan could use the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai!
To use Wood Release techniques, they had to transplant Senju Hashirama's cells and could only manage it with difficulty!
And even then, they could only produce a watered-down, ordinary version...
Now that he had Asura's Chakra, there was a good chance he'd eventually gain all those abilities!
Especially with Indra and Asura together. Forget Susanoo-clad Buddha—he might naturally become a Six Paths-level powerhouse someday!
But getting stronger didn't happen overnight. These two types of Chakra would only gradually increase his strength and potential.
They wouldn't suddenly give him combat power beyond the Kage Level!
