However, to their utter surprise, the First Hokage standing before them now was perhaps more terrifying than death itself.
" Hashirama, are you alright?"
Mito Uzumaki rushed forward anxiously and helped Hashirama Senju.
Seeing Hashirama Senju wither away like a flower in an instant, Mito Uzumaki's eyes reddened.
In her eyes, Hashirama Senju was indeed a complete goofball.
It also has many shortcomings.
However, in Mito Uzumaki's eyes, she was the most outstanding being.
Otherwise, Mito Uzumaki wouldn't have been willing to sacrifice herself as a Jinchūriki for the sake of Konoha Ninja Village.
However, now I see this man, who once dominated the Shinobi World, suddenly appear in this state.
Mito Uzumaki was originally capable of standing alone, supporting half of Konoha Ninja Village, and was not even afraid of death.
At this moment, however, she became like any ordinary woman, lost, helpless, pale, and powerless.
All he could do was speak urgently, his eyes red.
" Tobirama, quickly notify the medical-nin and have them come to treat Hashirama."
" Hashirama, don't worry, you'll be alright. I won't let you die."
As she spoke, Mito Uzumaki's hand, which was supporting Hashirama Senju, trembled slightly. Looking at Tobirama Senju, who was still standing there with a pale face, she couldn't help but urge him on urgently.
" Tobirama, hurry up and go! Do you want to watch your elder brother die?"
His hurried words were laced with undisguised bewilderment and helplessness.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others bit their lips, and many of them had tears in their eyes.
Looking at this man known as the God of the Shinobi World, with his face as aged as tree bark.
At this moment, however, she bit her lip, forcing herself not to make a sound.
They were worried that they might burst into tears.
Facing this great man who single-handedly ended the chaos of the Sengoku period, founded Konoha Ninja Village, and led Konoha Ninja Village to its most glorious moment in the Shinobi World.
It now gives the impression of being on its last legs, like the sun setting in the west.
This is undoubtedly heartbreaking.
"Ahem, Mito, don't make things difficult for Tobirama. Have you forgotten that you are the number one medical-nin in Konoha Ninja Village, and even in the entire Shinobi World? Otherwise, with my high standards, why would I choose you as my wife?"
Hashirama Senju forced a smile, coughed lightly, and then said.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to die. It's just that I used up a lot of Chakra just to deter the people of Kumogakure from going to war, which made it impossible to slow down cell aging."
"If I count on my fingers, I can live for at least another six months."
"As for whether Death will dare to take me then, that's another story. Who knows, I might even live a few more years."
As Tobirama Senju spoke, with Mito Uzumaki's help, he plopped down on a treetop, revealing an even brighter smile.
However, this joke was clearly not funny to others.
Even the usually calm Tobirama Senju couldn't help but clench his fists.
Unfortunately, even with my knuckles turned white from gripping so tightly, I still couldn't shake this feeling of powerlessness.
As Hashirama Senju just said, Mito Uzumaki, as a Uzumaki Clan with Sage Body, is proficient in Sealing Jutsu in addition to...
Furthermore, he was proficient in Medical Ninjutsu and recovery techniques.
However, these things can indeed treat injuries and even heal instantly.
Unfortunately, we are faced with the irreversible damage to bodily functions, such as cellular aging.
No matter how Mito Uzumaki was, she was powerless to help him.
It can be said that if it weren't for Mito Uzumaki's Medical Ninjutsu and recovery techniques, Hashirama Senju would have been Kitsuchi long ago.
We can't afford to prolong our existence for too long.
"No, Hashirama, don't say such unlucky things. I will definitely find a way to save you. There are so many strange and wonderful people in the Shinobi World, you won't die."
Mito Uzumaki spoke urgently, and soon an extremely absurd thought flashed through her mind. She quickly turned around to look behind her.
"Bai... Bai Yu, you're so strong, you must have a way to save Hashirama, right? I know you have a way."
Tobirama Senju and the others tensed up immediately, looking at Bai Yu with equal urgency.
Faced with this sudden request, at this moment, a glimmer of hope also appeared on his face.
Hashirama Senju grabbed Mito Uzumaki's arm, shook his head with a wry smile, and said...
" Mito, don't make things difficult for Bai Yu. If there really was a way, you and Tobirama would have found it already."
"Cellular aging is irreversible; I've known that from the beginning."
"However, for the sake of Konoha Ninja Village, we already made a decision. Going back on it now would be a bit uncool of me."
"The only regret is that in the end, we still couldn't change Madara's mind. We wonder if he'll catch up with us in the underworld, and what he'll say then."
" Hashirama, shut up!" Mito Uzumaki shouted urgently, her eyes red.
However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than a dark shadow fell upon the two of them.
"Young man, you must have been lying. Your life force is very weak. I don't think you can last even half a month, let alone six months."
Bai Yu took a sip of his drink and said calmly.
"To be honest, you're just clinging to life by sheer willpower. Once the peace talks between Konoha Ninja Village and Kumogakure end, you'll probably just run away."
"Am I right?"
Mito Uzumaki and the others froze instantly.
Hashirama Senju chuckled dryly and said, "Brother, what you're saying is unethical; you're revealing my past."
"All I wanted was to leave gracefully, but you're putting me in a difficult position."
"However, I was really hoping that you would say you could save me, but now it seems that was just wishful thinking."
"As long as you live a life with a clear conscience, that's enough!"
Looking at Hashirama Senju, who seemed to be experiencing a brief resurgence of energy before death, Bai Yu sighed helplessly.
Especially seeing Mito Uzumaki sobbing silently, with that bewildered and helpless expression.
Bai Yu looked up at the sky, then casually took a swig of his drink.
"Forget it, let's leave it to fate and do our best."
"You're right, maybe I really can save you!"
The soft sound, at this moment, seemed like a demonic chant, echoing between heaven and earth for a long time.
It's more like an invisible hammer striking straight at the heart.
At this moment, Hashirama Senju forgot his dying sentiments, and Tobirama Senju felt no longer powerless.
Mito Uzumaki was no longer lost or helpless.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others no longer felt any resentment.
At that moment, almost simultaneously, they asked the same question in unison.
"Can you really save them? This is no joke!"
Hashirama Senju and the others all fixed their gazes on Bai Yu, as if their eyes could devour him.
They probably can't wait for Bai Yu to reveal his method of saving the person.
