Yongcheng's Approval

Because after Orochimaru was sealed, Hashirama Senju, Yongcheng Senju, and Tobirama all regained control over their bodies and their mobility was restored.

Seeing that the First Hokage had been freed from control, Kakashi immediately used Wood Release Ninjutsu and shouted:

"Wood Release: Wood Binding Coffin Jutsu, Release"

The vines that had been wrapped around Hashirama instantly swished back to the ground, leaving only a few empty holes as if they had never existed.

After Senju Taoyuan was freed from Tobirama restraints, he spoke again:

"Second Hokage, Konoha has changed a lot. It's no longer the Konoha of the past. We not only rule the entire Land of Fire, but we've also defeated the other ninja villages. We've become the undisputed overlords, and our next step may be to rule the entire Shinobi World."

With his Tobirama Senju crossed and a haughty air, Tobirama Senju, upon hearing Senju Taoyuan's words, spoke with a serious expression:

"Dominating the entire Shinobi World seems like a good plan. I've thought about it before. With so many countries in the Shinobi World, without strong military suppression, it will inevitably descend into a chaotic war sooner or later."

After thinking for a moment, Tobirama Senju nodded and said with a serious expression:

"If it were you guys, you could definitely do it. With such a powerful force, Konoha could easily rule the entire Shinobi World. I also want to meet the Fifth Hokage; he's even more outstanding than my brother and me."

Tobirama Senju, a sensory-type ninja, had already noticed that the Konoha Ninja in the examination hall were all Elite Jonin, along with Pseudo-Kage-level Expert and quite a few Kage-level Expert —at least a hundred. There were even several Super Kage Level powerhouses. With such a powerful lineup, dominating the entire Shinobi World would indeed be no problem.

When Tobirama Senju sensed the Elite Jonin, his face was filled with surprise, and he was secretly amazed.

As a deceased Hokage, seeing Konoha's current transformation naturally filled him with smug satisfaction, and he also fully acknowledged Qingcheng's skillful tactics.

After being freed from his restraints, Yongcheng's face was filled with surprise. The battle had been so intense that Yongcheng doubted his own eyes, and he thought to himself:

"My son not only became Hokage, but also awakened the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, used the First Hokage's Wood Release, and even created Thousand-Handed Giant Buddha by clapping his hands together! My God!"

Then Yongcheng glared at Shouhon Yihan and spoke directly:

"Grandson, your strength is quite good, so I will reluctantly agree to take you as my grandson for now. If it is appropriate in the future, I will make you my official grandson. Tell me about my eldest son and how he killed Hiruzen Sarutobi."

Upon hearing that she had been promoted, Shouhon Yihan's face lit up with excitement. She laughed heartily and said triumphantly:

"My godfather, the Fifth Hokage, led us in a coup, branded Hiruzen Sarutobi with shame, and dug up all his past misdeeds—a total of thirty crimes, now buried in a ditch."

Yongcheng, much like the Second Hokage, had an arrogant demeanor. Hearing Shouhon Yihan's words, he smiled and said:

"Well done! I told those Doves and good-for-nothings that if they wanted to overthrow Hiruzen Sarutobi, they had to stage a coup. The powerful Uchiha Clan was wiped out by a single Uchiha Itachi; it's a disgrace!"

Shouhon Yihan looked at Yongcheng, who was Doves the Uchiha Clan members who were advocating for a "dove" stance, and hurriedly nodded and bowed, saying:

"Grandpa, you're right. Those Doves from the Uchiha Clan have all reformed after their resurrection. They've become the Fifth Hokage's dutiful sons and your virtuous grandsons. I guarantee they won't go against you."

Yongcheng shook his head, sighed, and said with great satisfaction:

"Konoha is at peace now. There's no need for a coup, nor for a dead man like me. Hearing that Qingcheng has become Hokage makes me incredibly happy. If I could see Mei and Momoko one more time, I would be completely content."

Meanwhile, Hashirama Senju was also filled with emotion, watching Yamato use Wood Release Ninjutsu to rebuild the dilapidated examination hall. In a very short time, the Chunin Arena was restored, and even the grounds were completely renewed.

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju nodded and hummed in approval, saying with great appreciation:

"The Wood Release Ninjutsu I developed has been fully utilized by you. It can be used not only to build houses but also for combat. It's truly amazing!"

Kakashi looked at the First Hokage, who was filled with deep emotion, and nodded slightly, speaking in a very serious tone:

"First Hokage, is there anything else you wish to say? If not, this junior will now release you from the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, allowing your souls to return to the Pure Land,"

Hashirama Senju hearing Kakashi's words, Hashirama Senju chuckled, then spoke very seriously:

"Young man, wait a minute! I want to see the Fifth Hokage again, and my grandson Nawaki. I can't believe he was so stupid to be killed by Explosive Tag. I need to give him a good talking to."

Tobirama Senju also waved to Kakashi, signaling Kakashi to wait a moment, in a very stern tone:

"We'll have to keep you a little longer. My brother and I also want to see the Fifth Hokage and our grandson. We heard that Tsunade has a young son who, although he's an Uchiha Clan, already possesses all the characteristics of the Senju Clan. We hope this child can also inherit the Senju Clan's spirit of friendship."

Just then, Nawaki, activating his Lightning Armor, landed directly in front of the First Hokage, shouting excitedly:

"First Hokage, Second Hokage, I heard you were both Impure World Reincarnation using Edo Tensei, and you won your revival matches. I've already passed the Chunin Exams and will soon become Chunin."

Kakashi frowned as he looked at the extremely excited Nawaki, then said:

"I don't want to discourage you, but your Chunin Ninja Exams results are invalid. Team 7, you'd better prepare for the next exam."

Upon hearing this, Nawaki's eyes widened, his face turning ashen, and he cried out in utter resentment:

"Why? Why is this happening? I defeated so many enemies, why is my exam invalidated? Is someone jealous of me?"

Kakashi, seeing Nawaki groaning in distress, immediately reprimanded him:

"Rules are rules. You are a Konoha Ninja, so you must accept Konoha's rules. If you can't accept them, you can leave the Konoha Ninja ranks and become a rich kid, living a life of captivity in Konoha."

When Nawaki looked at Kakashi with that stern expression, he immediately shouted:

"I understand, Kakashi-sensei, I will definitely work hard!"

Looking Hashirama Senju the fourteen-year-old Nawaki, Hashirama Senju was filled with emotion, then smiled.

"Child, you must persevere. I believe you will grow into a powerful ninja."

Tobirama Senju looked at Nawaki! Having just used the Lightning Armor, he had a very pleased expression on his face and praised him again:

"Your Lightning General is very well trained. If you take it a step further, it will become S-rank Ninjutsu."
