Thanks!
“Hmph! You insufferable little brat! Fine, I admit it! I genuinely wanted to see Hashirama Senju! So what?! Is there a problem?!”
Hirofumi Ito looked at Madara Uchiha with an unmistakably suggestive expression.
“No problem at all! After all, Hashirama Senju is the greatest shinobi who ever lived, and you are the man who stands alongside the greatest shinobi who ever lived — so there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that!”
“Tch! Nonsense! What are you even babbling about, you little brat?! I am the Shinobi World’s Asura! Not some ‘man who stands alongside’ anybody!”
Hirofumi Ito stuck a finger in his ear and wiggled it.
This insufferable Madara.
What a set of lungs on him.
“Alright, alright, I hear you!
Why are you shouting so loud?!
Don’t you know what they say?
To explain is to conceal, and to conceal means it’s true!
I know you’re impatient — just hold on a moment!
I’m almost home.
Once I get there, I’ll start the summoning.
Though I can’t guarantee Hashirama Senju will actually come out.
There are quite a few deceased Hokage-level powerhouses from the Hidden Leaf Village after all…
So I really can’t say.
Who knows — maybe instead of Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju shows up!”
The instant Hirofumi Ito said Tobirama Senju’s name, Madara Uchiha spat hard on the ground.
“Hmph! Ptui! That evil Tobirama Senju! Even hearing his name irritates me!”
Chatting and goofing around with Madara Uchiha inside the Summoning Space, Hirofumi Ito made his way back home.
He lay down on his small bed and reached out to the system.
“System!”
[I’m here!]
Hirofumi Ito always felt like the system gave off the vibe of a certain overly-attached classmate.
“Can summonings be performed inside the Summoning Space? Or does it have to be done in the real world?!”
[The Summoning Space was created precisely for the host to perform summonings! Summoned beasts can also survive within the Summoning Space! Therefore, the host can absolutely perform summonings inside the Summoning Space!]
That put Hirofumi Ito’s mind at ease.
After all, if he summoned someone in the outside world, it could easily cause a massive scene.
A Hokage-level powerhouse casually releasing a burst of Chakra would probably make the entire Hidden Leaf Village shake three times over.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, that old codger of a Third Hokage, would probably lose a good night’s sleep over it.
“Hurry up already! What are you waiting for?!”
“See, there you go again.” Hirofumi Ito gave him a calm, unbothered look.
Something about the way Madara Uchiha looked right now gave off a desperate desire to improve…
That thought sent Hirofumi Ito’s mind drifting.
Once he became Hokage someday, should he take on a few disciples?
He could already picture it, some slightly anxious student standing before him, saying…
Sensei, I want to improve so badly!
Right, right, what was this, some Director Qi situation?
He shook it off.
Without any further hesitation, Hirofumi Ito reached out to the system.
“System! Use one Gold Summon!”
[Please have the host form the Summoning Technique seals!]
This process was nothing new for Hirofumi Ito, he’d already summoned Madara Uchiha once before.
He ran through the hand seals in the proper sequence, then slammed his palm hard onto the ground.
Just like last time, golden runic markings spread across the floor of the Summoning Space, and a brilliant golden radiance began to pour from them.
Even having been through this once already, the sight still stirred a wave of excitement in Hirofumi Ito’s chest.
This meant he had gained another summoned beast with Hokage-level strength.
Hmm… though calling it a “summoned beast” didn’t quite feel accurate…
Beside him, Madara Uchiha had gone absolutely still, eyes locked onto the summoning array without blinking, even activating the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
The pinwheel pattern spun wildly within those pupils as Madara Uchiha tried to use the Mangekyō to peel back whatever secret the array held.
He stared for a long while.
Nothing.
Not a single thing revealed itself.
There wasn’t even the Chakra fluctuation a normal Summoning Technique should produce.
From within the golden array, a flame of the soul gradually materialized.
Watching that soul flame, Hirofumi Ito screamed in his heart at the top of his lungs.
Hashirama Senju!
Hashirama Senju!
Hashirama Senju!
Please let it be Hashirama Senju!
It was perfectly natural for him to feel this way.
Hashirama Senju was the strongest fighter the Hidden Leaf Village had ever produced, throughout its entire history.
Madara Uchiha was also a little tense.
From what Hirofumi Ito had said earlier, each Hokage-level summoning cost one hundred million ryo.
And since Hirofumi Ito currently had five hundred million ryo, that meant five chances.
Five chances.
The odds of pulling out that big oaf Hashirama Senju were actually pretty decent…
But with something like this, you could never really say.
So at this moment, Madara Uchiha was also screaming inwardly.
Hashirama!
Hashirama!
Hashirama!
It has to be Hashirama!
Not that evil Tobirama Senju!
But the world can be strange like that, the harder you wish against something, the more certain it is to arrive.
The soul flame within the golden array slowly condensed into a human shape.
White spiky hair.
A suit of blue armor.
Clearly the style of the Warring States Period, the armor’s design was not all that different from the armor Madara Uchiha wore.
The moment Madara Uchiha recognized that silhouette, the look on that face turned uglier than if something dead had been swallowed whole.
Because this was not the Hashirama Senju Madara had been desperately hoping for.
This was Tobirama Senju, the one who had the words “evil Uchiha” perpetually on the tip of the tongue, repeated eight hundred times a day.
The golden light faded.
A flicker of confusion passed through Tobirama Senju’s eyes.
Then those eyes landed on the figure standing not far away.
They went razor-sharp in an instant.
“EVIL UCHIHA!”
Tobirama Senju hadn’t yet grasped the situation, but had already spotted Madara Uchiha at a single glance.
Was this evil Uchiha plotting yet another evil scheme?!
And that evil little brat standing right beside, judging by looks alone, there was a very high probability this was another evil Uchiha.
What were these two evil Uchiha, one big, one small, trying to do by dragging Tobirama out here?!
The very first words out of Tobirama Senju’s mouth upon being revived were “Evil Uchiha.”
Madara Uchiha completely lost it.
