2. Big brother, did you finally turn into an M after getting a beating?
Senju Tobirama looked at his elder brother, Senju Hashirama, who left the clan compound with a depressed and confused look on his face and ran out to relax.
For a moment, Tobirama felt a little confused.
I, Senju Tobirama, saved my two younger brothers, but I still couldn't change the fate of my elder brother Hashirama meeting Uchiha Madara.
No, maybe not.
The relationship and love that the elder brother had for his younger brothers, regardless of whether their younger brothers would eventually die at the hands of the enemy, would have made the elder brother, Hashirama, say these words to his father, Senju Butsuma.
However, the elder brother still ended up getting slapped.
But at least I, Tobirama Senju, successfully saved all my brothers!
No, I have to try again!
Senju Tobirama quickly followed his elder brother, ran out of the clan compound, and stopped him when he seemed to want to relax by a small river in the distance.
"Elder brother!"
"Oh, it's Tobirama. What's up?"
"Father slapped you just now. Are you okay?"
Senju Hashirama smirked in front of his brother.
"No, it's okay; Kawarama and Itama are still alive and well. I'm already very happy.
Although I still can't figure it out, I can't understand why Father would let my brothers do such a thing."
"Elder brother, Father is not only our father but also the clan leader of the Senju.
Elder brother, besides our younger brother, there are still other young children in the clan who have to be sent to the battlefield at this time."
Only Hashirama Senju would not care when his second brother directly told him what he had just cried about.
Just let Uchiha Izuna say that his elder brother, Uchiha Madara, is crying!
Even my own brother will be beaten!
"Father just thinks that you are qualified as an elder brother who cares for his younger brothers, but perhaps you are still a little short of being the young clan leader of our Senju?"
He was a little surprised, and then slowly, his face showed understanding.
"Elder brother, we are shinobi, and our father is also a shinobi.
So when Father was the clan leader, even if he couldn't bear it, he could only send my younger brother out for the sake of the clan as the clan leader."
"And elder brother, Father slapped you because he had high expectations of you.
What Father actually wants to tell you is that crying won't solve the problem."
A puzzled expression appeared on Senju Hashirama's face.
What exactly do Tobirama and Father mean?
Isn't it right to cry for my brother's safe return?
Oh, I understand!
Father must be dissatisfied with me because I am not strong enough now!
If he were strong enough, he would be able to share more of the clan's responsibilities and would not have to let his younger brother and other young members of the clan carry out so many dangerous missions.
If I were strong enough, Father would recognize me more, and he wouldn't have to go through the trouble of sending young clansmen or even my younger brother to the battlefield!
"I understand, Tobirama, I will definitely do better!"
Tobirama laughed as he watched his elder brother finally seem to understand something and walk towards a river in the distance without being depressed.
After all, it can still be changed.
Look, today I, Senju Tobirama, successfully stopped my elder brother from going to the river to meet Uchiha Madara!
The elder brother, Hashirama Senju, ran back to the clan compound enthusiastically and began to train and practice, working hard to make himself stronger.
Tobirama, who had just completed his mission and saved his younger brother again, returned home with a tired body, had a good meal, and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Tobirama suddenly woke up, opened his eyes, and looked at the seat next to him.
Kawarama and Itama, the two mischievous younger brothers, had already drifted off to sleep, their quilts discarded.
However, there was no one on the elder brother's bed!
He patted Kawarama and Itama's shoulders gently, waking them up from their sleep.
"What's wrong, second brother? Is it dawn yet?"
"Where's your elder brother?"
"Ah, I don't know."
Kawarama rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at his elder brother's position.
"I, I seem to know that elder brother was training like crazy today when we were about to come back to rest.
He said he still needed to train for a while, but in order not to disturb the clansmen's sleep, he ran out to practice."
When Senju Tobirama heard what his two younger brothers said, he slapped himself in the face.
What, elder brother went out to practice?
What a joke! What kind of airplane is this?
Senju Tobirama felt his whole body shiver. He put on his clothes and let his two younger brothers continue to sleep.
Then he ran out of the clan compound quickly.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Senju Tobirama moved rapidly, and finally, he arrived at a river far away from his clan.
Bang, bang, bang!
The stones continued to bounce off the water and shoot into the distance.
Senju Tobirama looked at his elder brother standing by the river and the black-haired guy wearing geta next to his elder brother, and he didn't know what to say.
Elder brother, you are embarrassed to disturb others' sleep so late at night. Why do you have to go out to practice in this place?
Uchiha Madara, you didn't meet my elder brother during the day, so you just stayed by the river and refused to leave. You had to wait until my elder brother came so that you could play skipping stones with him, right?
And you two, why do you go home so late?
Are the reincarnations of Asura and Indra attracted to each other in this way?
Senju Tobirama felt a little pain in his head.
Never mind, I really don't want to care, let them meet each other.
I, Senju Tobirama, have a splitting headache now and just want to have a good sleep.
Everything will be fine if you get some sleep.
"Second brother, do you think that elder brother has been a little strange these days?"
"What's strange about that?"
"He's very happy."
A few days later, among the Senju clan.
Beside Tobirama Senju, who was practicing, the two exhausted younger brothers took advantage of the break to quietly ask their beloved second brother their questions.
"If Father had slapped me in front of so many people a few days ago, I would have been angry and displeased with everyone I saw these past few days.
Although my brother is a bit of an idiot, he shouldn't be angry at all, right?"
Senju Tobirama glanced at Senju Hashirama and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Your elder brother has met his destined person, how can he not be happy?
"Don't think about it anymore, just keep training.
It's not always the case that I can appear beside you in time and save you from enemy shinobi."
