Chapter 33

29. Comparing the two Hashiramas… this Hashirama is way too weak!!!

Everyone felt extremely envious of the rewards Naruto Uzumaki and Deidara received,

but instantly,

they stopped thinking about it.

The live comparison system is still active,

which means they might still have more chances to earn rewards!!!

The black-bordered screen began to turn off,

while the white-bordered screen began playing new footage.

【Tobirama Senju: I suddenly don't feel like watching my brother on the white screen anymore… I can't even look at my original brother the same way now…】

【Madara Uchiha: …I feel the same now. The other Hashirama might better suit my personality and tastes. This original Hashirama… I have little interest in his past experiences.】

【Hashirama Senju: Damn it!!! Tobirama, Madara!! Don't go too far! Am I really that much worse than the other Hashirama? Do you really despise me this much?!】

【Hiruzen Sarutobi: Cough… First Hokage, perhaps Tobirama-sensei is too familiar with you, so he has little curiosity about your original experiences.】

【Orochimaru: After watching the other First Hokage's experiences, I've lost all interest in the original First Hokage's… There's no comparison at all between the two.】

【Sakura Haruno: I really don't find it worth watching anymore. The First Hokage seems very different from what's recorded in our textbooks… I feel he's almost like Naruto…】

【Ino Yamanaka: I think the First Hokage from the other world is hotter… this world's First Hokage… uh… how to put it… I can only say he's a good person, but he doesn't suit my taste…】

As everyone discussed,

the white screen also began playing new content.

Since the young Hashirama and young Madara began their rift,

young Hashirama was forcibly dragged back to his family by Hashirama's father!!

Hashirama's father even strictly forbade young Hashirama from any contact with young Madara,

faced with his father's orders,

young Hashirama could not resist in the slightest!!!

He wanted to tell his father what he truly felt inside,

but when he met Hashirama's father's cold gaze,

young Hashirama swallowed all his words back down.

At this point, he had neither the courage nor the strength to defy his father, Hashirama's father.

During this time,

young Hashirama fell into a dilemma between his family and his friend.

On one side was his own family,

on the other was his best friend, Madara Uchiha,

young Hashirama didn't know what to do.

【Fourth Raikage: This First Hokage is way too weak—so indecisive, not even manly. If I were him, I'd at least try to resist once!!!】

【Kumogakure no Mei: Yes… compared like this, the First Hokage from the other world is more charismatic. Though his methods are more tyrannical, it somehow gives people a sense of security.】

【Gaara: Hmph… It seems our First Hokage isn't as perfect as we imagined. The reason he achieved so many things others couldn't was merely due to his unparalleled talent… Without the Wood Release… tsk tsk…】

Over a long period of time,

young Hashirama could only numb himself with training and desperately taking on missions,

which seemed to reduce his troubles,

allowing him to avoid thinking about such complicated matters,

and not have to agonize between family and friend!!!!

But he himself knew,

whether during training or on missions,

he was actually distracted,

not putting his heart into anything.

In the short term, it had no effect,

but if this continued long-term,

it would surely harm him,

yet young Hashirama had no better way to escape this predicament!!!

But even with distracted training,

young Hashirama's rate of power increase was still countless times faster than that of his peers!!

The viewers also noticed young Hashirama's oddity:

after prolonged training, ordinary people would inevitably suffer some injuries.

But young Hashirama's recovery speed was grotesquely fast,

no matter what injury he suffered,

he always seemed to fully recover in a very short time,

a recovery speed nearly matching that of a Tailed Beast.

【Sakura Haruno: Do you all feel the First Hokage is becoming more and more like Naruto? Their recovery speeds both seem abnormal…】

【Sasuke Uchiha: Naruto recovers fast because of the Nine-Tails inside him, but why can the First Hokage recover so quickly? Is it because of his own body?】

【Orochimaru: Hehe… Sasuke-kun, as a member of the Uchiha clan, your observation is unusually sharp… Our First Hokage seems to harbor secrets even he doesn't know about—secrets he's never seriously investigated.】

【Sasuke Uchiha: The reason that guy Naruto recovers so quickly is because of the Nine-Tails inside him, but the First Hokage being able to recover his own injuries so quickly seems to be because of his own constitution??】

【Orochimaru: Hehe... Sasuke-kun truly is a member of the Uchiha clan — your observational sense is unusually keen... Our First Hokage seems to have some secrets even he himself doesn't know about; he's simply never looked into them deeply.】

【Tobirama Senju: Big brother… you really are quite different from the ordinary clansmen of the Senju clan. Although our Senju clan's constitution is relatively powerful, it's still within the range of normal people, yet your constitution has already infinitely approached that of a Tailed Beast.】

【Kushina Uzumaki: Hmm… the First's constitution is indeed terrifyingly powerful. Even for our Uzumaki clan, it seems we don't have such a terrifying physical quality…】

The young Hashirama's life in the picture continued forward in such an orderly fashion.

Day after day of training, plus constantly going out to carry out missions,

Apart from that, there was nothing else at all.

If there were no comparison with the previous young Hashirama,

Everyone might not have felt anything strange about it in their hearts.

But now,

Everyone felt that this young Hashirama was really living too listlessly.

Even in terms of training, his mind had never truly been fully invested in it!!!

He was merely using training as a means to escape reality!!!

If it weren't for his own powerful talent, his current strength probably wouldn't have improved much compared to before!!!

Being able to have such obvious progress was simply due to his talent!!!

The speed of this kind of progress, compared with the other Hashirama,

Was simply worlds apart!!!

And the other Hashirama,

Apart from putting part of his mind on training,

He also had no confusion at all.

He devoted all of his energy to his own dream!!!!

Resisting his father Senju Butsuma,

Forcing the Elder Council to recognize his identity as the new clan head of the Senju clan,

Forming an alliance with Madara Uchiha…

No matter which single thing was taken out,

It was done more excellently and outstandingly than this Hashirama!!!.

30. A Visit to Mount Myoboku!!

【Tobirama Senju: No comparison, no harm done. The big brother from the other world is far more outstanding than imagined!!!】

【Madara Uchiha: Suddenly feeling sorry for the me from the other world. Facing that world's Hashirama… he can't see any hope of catching up!!! Good thing that the Hashirama of my world is pretty weak!!!】

【Fourth Raikage: Looking at it this way, the First Hokage from the other world seems to be more like the First Hokage recorded in the ninja world… the First Hokage we see here… why does it feel a bit unreliable!!!】
