The Sunagakure battlefield...
Sakumo stared at the mud-covered man standing before him... utterly baffled...
"Who are you?"
"Hashirama. I'm here to help you!" Hashirama declared, puffing out his chest.
"...How exactly do you intend to help?" Sakumo's head hurt... He would ask his teacher what was going on later...
"Well, I'm an excellent sniper!" Hashirama pointed at the sniper rifle on his back.
"...Then please go find Kimima here. He should need your help." Sakumo pointed out Kimima's position on the map.
"Leave it to me, Sakumo!"
Watching Hashirama walk away, Sakumo hurriedly messaged Dave to ask about him...
The explanation he received was to let him fool around. He would probably come back after a few days...
Inside Konoha.
"The Land of Iron sent us a message asking us to send shinobi to help them deal with Hanzo of the Salamander," Danzo said, looking at the letter in his hand.
"Sure, but we aren't going ourselves," Dave said with a shrug.
"Then who do you want to send?" Danzo asked.
"Don't worry about that. Let's give him another taste of how he earned that Demigod title."
Then Dave walked outside and sent a message to a certain creature...
A Professional Cesspit Cleaner Black Zetsu: Fighting? Helping out? No, no, I'm busy here.
Handsome Guy Who Loves Growing Vegetables: You're not going? Fine, I'll ask George. Helping the Land of Iron this time will establish a good relationship with them. Then, if any business opportunities come up over there...
A Professional Cesspit Cleaner Black Zetsu: Fine, shut up. I'll go.
"Okay, someone's going. You don't need to worry about it anymore," Dave told Danzo with a smile.
Danzo was completely bewildered...
Back to Hashirama...
"Grandpa Hashirama, what brings you here?" Kimima asked in confusion, looking at Hashirama before him.
