Chapter 53

Calm down!!!

I have to stay calm!!!!!!!

At this very moment, the Daimyo was furiously brainwashing himself inside his own mind.

He himself had never expected,

after several years had passed,

that when he saw Hashirama Senju again,

his performance would still be so utterly pathetic.

Just sitting beside Hashirama Senju,

the Daimyo already felt

as if his throat was being gripped by a giant hand!!!!

Even just a single glance from Hashirama Senju,

made him feel his heartbeat quicken by several beats!!!

This nervous feeling drove him to keep having the servants beside him refill his water.

Before long,

he had drunk pot after pot of tea.

The Daimyo did not speak,

and Hashirama Senju did not take the initiative to say anything either.

He merely sat upright in his seat, leisurely sipping the tea in his cup.

In this awkward and dangerous atmosphere,

the Daimyo felt his patience had reached its limit.

He turned his head slightly and gave the person behind him a meaningful look.

"Move!!!!"

After letting out a furious roar,

the Daimyo immediately stood up and broke into a jog.

What a joke—

he was the man of the highest status in the Land of Fire!!!

What if these ninja accidentally hurt him when they started fighting??

So he had to leave this place first,

as for the battle between these ninja,

he would just leave it to them to settle among themselves!!!

"Swish swish swish!!"

Several sounds of something tearing through the air rang out!!!

Immediately after,

several dozen ninja appeared in the hall.

At this moment, they were all staring tensely at Hashirama Senju, who was seated in his chair!!!

They hadn't expected,

that this man hailed by the outside world as a god,

would be even more terrifying than they had imagined!!!!

Just sitting there,

he gave them an incomparable pressure!!!

The air, the light…

everything seemed to vanish without a trace as it approached that man!!!!

"All together!! Don't give him time to strike!!!"

The words had barely fallen,

when several massive shuriken carved graceful arcs through the air,

shooting straight toward Hashirama Senju!!!

At the same time,

scattered ninjutsu also came howling toward Hashirama Senju.

Watching the dazzling "display" before his eyes,

Hashirama Senju didn't even bother to stand up.

He gently exhaled a breath.

"Ordinary Punch!!!"

Whether it was an illusion or not,

these shinobi suddenly felt the world had lost its sound.

Then,

a massive white shockwave surged skyward!!!!

In their line of sight,

everything in heaven and earth seemed to be devoured by it!!!!

"Rumble rumble rumble!!!"

A sound like a bulldozer rose up,

Red raindrops began falling from the sky!!!!

One punch!!!

Hashirama Senju wiped out every single person in front of him!!!

"Sigh… these little bugs are really annoying…"

"Although they pose no threat to me, buzzing nonstop in my ear… that's still pretty annoying…"

Seeing the scene of Hashirama Senju wiping them out with a single punch,

the audience in the livestream fell silent once again!!!

【Jiraiya: If I'm not mistaken… the First didn't even use any ninjutsu or taijutsu just now?】

【Jiraiya: Tsunade… is this your monstrous strength?】

【Tsunade: …Don't be ridiculous. Even with my monstrous strength, there's no way I could pull this off… And Grandpa didn't use any chakra at all… he did it purely with the strength of his body!!!!】

【Orochimaru: Those ninja from just now — even the weakest among them was at least a jonin level!!! Without any ninjutsu, without using chakra… doing it purely with the strength of his body — the First's greatness has far surpassed my imagination!!!】

【Fourth Raikage: That son of a bitch is basically a human-shaped Tailed Beast, alright!!!!!! Such a monstrous body!!! Is that really something a human can pull off?!!!!!!!!!!】.

46. One-Tail Shukaku: I'm just an adorable tanuki!

Meanwhile, the daimyo who had long since fled to a safe distance,

upon seeing this sight,

felt his heart sink halfway!!!!

These useless trash!!!

Bragging so boastfully!!!!

Only to be taken out in a single punch!!!!

He could still remember vividly,

how the two clan heads had introduced these elite members of their clans,

with that smug look on their faces!!!

And the daimyo also knew,

that Hashirama Senju had not yet exerted his full power!!!

What he was truly famous for was his Wood Release,

and right now!!!

Hashirama Senju hadn't even used any ninjutsu!!!!

The daimyo now began to doubt whether his own course of action had been the right one!!!

What if the people of the Shimura clan and the Sarutobi clan failed…
