Danzo's crude way of changing the subject wasn't working.
After all, he had always been stubborn and tough. Suddenly giving in seemed completely inconsistent with his image.
But what could he do?
One was the First Hokage, known as the God of Shinobi.
The other was his teacher, the Second Hokage.
Stubborn? He just jumped right in without hesitation.
[Senju Hashirama: Oh!! Then, brother, how many forbidden techniques have you invented?]
[Senju Tobirama: ??? You ask me, who should I ask? I said I invented Ninjutsu… and before I could even react, you threw the scrol at me!]
[Senju Tsunade: …Goodness! So this is over? No one knows the answer?]
[Senju Tobirama: Hmm… there should be so many forbidden technique! How can I answer if you just throw the question like that? But if you name the forbidden technique, I'll definitely know it!]
[Senju Tsunade: !!!]
[Senju Hashirama: What should we do? Should we ask them one by one?]
[Ding! Determining Senju Hashirama's answer. The number of forbidden techniques invented by Senju Tobirama during his lifetime is: One.]
[Ding! Senju Hashirama's answer was wrong! Punishment: Deprivation of 3 random C-rank Ninjutsu]
[Senju Hashirama: !!! Holy crap, three more?!]
[Ding! Determining Senju Hashirama's answer. The number of forbidden techniques invented by Senju Tobirama during his lifetime is: Three.]
[Ding! Senju Hashirama's answer was wrong! Punishment: Deprivation of 3 random C-rank Ninjutsu]
[Senju Hashirama: !!! You're just playing with me! My Ninjutsu is free! …]
Tobirama quickly stopped his brother. If Hashirama kept bluffing, all of his low-level Ninjutsu would be stripped away.
"Brother, calm down. Your Ninjutsu is free!"
Hashirama tilted his head and asked, "Eh? Really?"
"Nonsense! Since childhood, have you ever seen a Ninjutsu you thought was difficult? You just clapped your hands and cast it!"
"Now that you mention it… it does seem like that!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen: …
Namikaze Minato: …
[Senju Tsunade: Impure World Reincarnation, Corpse Reincarnation, Flying Thunder God, Flying Thunder God Slash, Multiplying Exploding Talisman, Multiple Shadow Clones…]
[Senju Tobirama: Hmm… yes, those are all my techniques!]
[Fourth Raikage: Ah… that must be over a hundred, right?]
[Senju Tsunade: Nonsense, I just read it from Konoha's forbidden scroll!]
[Mei Terumi: ??? Hey guys, let's team up and rob Konoha, shall we?]
[Rasa: Ahem, of course, I'm really excited!]
[Ōnoki: Your a one dead man, stop talking!]
[Rasa: What's wrong with the dead? Don't the dead have human rights?]
[Ding! Determining Ōnoki's answer. The number of forbidden techniques invented by Senju Tobirama during his lifetime is: One.]
[Ding! Ōnoki's answer was wrong! Punishment: Deprivation of 3 random C-rank Ninjutsu]
[Ōnoki: Damn! I got ripped off again!]
[Senju Hashirama: That Rasa! He's right! The dead have no human rights? Do you believe a slap from me will send you screaming on the ground?]
[Uchiha Madara: Oh? I don't believe it.]
[Senju Hashirama: Madara, get out of the way! I'm afraid I'll hurt you! Great and Mighty Heavenly Dragon! Oh no, I said the wrong word! Thousands of Hands! Buddha on Top!]
[Uchiha Madara: Damn it, how can you purify the land? He's in the ninja world. Who are you even going to hit? Go ahead and try!]
[Senju Hashirama: !!! Holy shit, brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?!]
[Senju Tobirama: Hehe…]
[Uchiha Izuna: There isn't a single normal person here…]
[Senju Tsunade: So!! The answer is 153?]
[Senju Tobirama: It should be… maybe… maybe it's possible! Only 153? That's a bit low. Wait for me to develop a few dozen more and make it an even number!]
[Ding! Determining Senju Tsunade's answer. The number of forbidden techniques invented by Senju Tobirama during his lifetime is: 153.]
[Ding! Senju Tsunade answered correctly, and is rewarded with 1 Flying Thunder God, redeemable for 800,000 gold coins! (Mmp, big loss!)]
[Fourth Raikage: !!! 153! Holy crap, if I don't grab these, am I even worthy of being Raikage?!]
[Ōnoki: This is ridiculous. Back then, Shisui used the Body Flicker Technique and Sharingan like it was second nature. Later, Minato used the Flying Thunder God to slice through enemies like butter! And you're telling me creating 153 forbidden techniques was the work of one person?]
[Mei Terumi: How the hell is this fair for Konoha? You've got so many techniques, yet you're still a mess… shameful!]
[Rasa: I have to say it—what has Konoha been doing all these years? Isn't it embarrassing?]
[Senju Hashirama: That's right! Isn't it shameful? Fighting with your own disciple, dying with your hands sealed?]
[Sarutobi Hiruzen: …Me? What could I do?]
[Ōnoki: Not to insult you, Third Hokage, but you ruined your entire legacy.]
[Fourth Raikage: That's right, and Minato too—he sealed the Nine-Tails at the cost of his life!]
[Senju Hashirama: !!! Don't even get me started! The Nine-Tailed Fox? That thing can't kill anyone!]
[Namikaze Minato: ??? If you don't want to say it, fine. But don't drag me into this!]
[Yang Kurama: What the hell… What do you mean by "that thing"? I'm not a thing!]
[Yin Kurama: Bullshit, you're not a thing? Then I must be a thing! …Shit, no matter how I phrase it, it sounds wrong!]
[Shukaku: Stupid fox.]
[Yang Kurama: You little runt! I've got two consciousnesses now! You afraid of a beating?]
[Yin Kurama: Tsk, you're acting like we're different. I'm stuck in Minato's belly…]
[Yang Kurama: And I'm stuck in Naruto's belly!]
[Shukaku: Two stupid foxes!]
[Gyūki: Shukaku, you know you can't win by scolding, fighting, or even flirting… so what's the point?]
[Shukaku: …Hmph! I enjoy it!]
[Namikaze Minato: !!! Yeah, where's my son?! That Naruto!]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Tsk, only thinking about your son now? He was beaten and sent to the hospital!]
[Senju Tsunade: …It's okay, just minor injuries. I'll treat him when he gets here!]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Minor injuries? A Uchiha throw is a minor injury? A Chidori through the chest is a minor injury?!]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Ahem… I don't know anything.]
[Uchiha Fugaku: …Wife, just let it go. I don't know either!]
[Namikaze Minato: ??? Who hit my son?! Stand up!]
[Uchiha Sasuke: What's the harm in standing up? Can you even hit me? You're already dead!]
[Namikaze Minato: !!! That makes sense! Close the door and let the teacher in! Kakashi too!]
[Jiraiya: I'm… collecting materials.]
[Hatake Kakashi: …He's my disciple to. It's not easy to attack him.]
