"Ahahaha, I never thought the day we joined forces would come so soon!"
The First Hokage seemed delighted, laughing as he performed ninjutsu.
To guard against unknown enemies, he had remained prepared for battle at all times.
Unfortunately, he had never gotten a chance to take the field. Orochimaru had always assigned him to use Wood Release to regulate the ecology of Konoha Island and the territories under Konoha's control.
