"Yamato had it a little better. At least his body adapted to Uncle Hashirama's cells, essentially turning him into a Wood Release user.
But he was still different from those of us who awakened it ourselves. That's why his progress was slow, and he never reached a particularly advanced level."
"As for Shimura Danzō, his Wood Release was forcibly shoved into him. He couldn't control it at all; it grew wildly like weeds. Forget nourishing it-the Wood Release could turn around and suck him dry.
That's why he thought of transplanting Sharingan to suppress it, and ended up making himself something neither human nor monster."
"Then there's Uchiha Madara's later Wood Release, but don't even get me started on that. Like Uncle Hashirama, he was a game-breaking exception, not a normal case."
"So that's how it works!" Hibari raised an eyebrow. "I could tell this thing was draining my chakra and life force. Since I didn't understand it before, I never dared to use it freely. I kept doing everything I could to suppress it.
Now that you've explained it, I finally get it... But Uncle Hashirama, it won't actually drain all my life force, will it? Is there any risk of that?"
Senju Hashirama leisurely tapped his fingers twice against the table with a soft knock. "It's natural to worry, but rest assured. Your Wood Release was born inside you. It's part of you to begin with.
You're nourishing it with your life force now. Once it grows, it'll naturally give back to you.
And the life force it returns will be filled with the power of Wood Release, which will do you a world of good... So go ahead and nurture it without holding back. One day, you'll be able to bring your Wood Release to the level
