Bab 3: Chapter 3: Beginning
"What's going on?"
Orochimaru's voice trembled slightly, and a cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
He stared at his hand, gripping his wrist with empty blood and covered in cracks.
This was supposed to be an unactivated state of Impure World Reincarnation.
How could it move?
The unexpected movement of the dead from Impure World Reincarnation defied all logic.
Even Tobirama and Hiruzen, standing across from him, opened their eyes wide in shock.
It was clear that something unexpected was happening.
The Anbu members outside the barrier were astonished by Orochimaru's sudden failure.
Their eyes were fixed on the upcoming problem.
"..."
Puck fluttered her wings, watching the scene unfold with amusement. She had come to terms with her status as a seemingly useless system.
"What's happening?"
Orochimaru's voice carried a hint of panic as he struggled to comprehend the anomaly before him.
The technique of Edo Tensei (Reanimation) is no joke!
Immortality and endless chakra.
It is a powerful tool for dealing with enemies!
However...
If it backfires, the consequences could be disastrous!
At this moment, Orochimaru began to regret using Edo Tensei.
He regretted using the technique as relying solely on his strength might not be enough against the Third Hokage.
The situation in the place suddenly became delicate.
"Edo Tensei."
Hashirama Senju's voice echoed slowly, with a bit of dryness in his throat, but everyone was listening intently.
"This technique has a risk."
As soon as Hashirama said this, Orochimaru's face changed dramatically. He vaguely realized that the worst-case scenario might be happening.
"Brother, what are you talking about? This is a technique I researched!"
Tobirama Senju said unhappily while standing beside him.
Since Orochimaru was being held, Tobirama's head was also not pierced by the cursed seal kunai.
"If the reanimated corpse can perform hand seals, it can break the contract with Edo Tensei!"
Hashirama ignored Tobirama's dissatisfaction and continued on the topic.
These words echoed the moment of power from Uchiha Madara in the original anime.
But now, Hashirama has taken over!
Now that he has become Hashirama, it's really tempting not to play the part!
"This…"
A flicker of shock passed through Tobirama's nearly lifeless eyes.
He then fell into thought and began to reconsider whether there was a problem with the forbidden technique he had created.
"Lord First Hokage, even so, you shouldn't be able to move right now!"
Orochimaru was drenched in cold sweat. He could clearly feel the power from his wrist, making it hard for him to move.
"Young man."
Hashirama's gaze turned cold.
After the transmigration, his perspective changed, and his position was different now.
If he had started as a mere genin, he definitely wouldn't have dared to provoke Orochimaru at this moment.
"Without a thorough plan, don't casually use forbidden techniques!"
After Hashirama said this, he suddenly exerted force on his wrist and violently threw Orochimaru away.
The burst of power threw Orochimaru over ten meters.
Bang!
Orochimaru crashed heavily onto the roof tiles, directly cracking them.
"I see now!"
Tobirama recovered from his thoughts.
As a master of forbidden techniques, he quickly understood after some hints.
"Brother, I never expected you to understand forbidden techniques!"
Tobirama slightly turned his head. He wanted to form hand seals but found that his body control wasn't sufficient yet.
"Hey, put that kunai in!"
Tobirama stared at Orochimaru who fell to the ground and said coldly.
"This truly is an unfortunate technique!"
Orochimaru got up from the ground.
The recent attack didn't cause him much harm but made him wary of using the Reanimation Jutsu recklessly for a while.
He began forming hand seals.
Tiger → Snake → Dog → Dragon → Clap hands
Orochimaru quickly completed the hand seals.
"Reanimation Jutsu, release!"
Whoosh!
After Orochimaru performed the hand seals, the dust on Tobirama's body fell off, revealing the appearance of a Genin from the Otogakure, and his soul ascended from the Impure World.
"Brother?"
Tobirama's soul looked at Hashirama beside him, who remained unaffected, and his expression subtly changed.
"I've just come back to life, and I'm not done having fun yet!"
Hashirama's voice echoed softly.
Swish!
In the next moment, Tobirama's soul returned to the Pure Land or Afterlife.
"The host is even more imposing than I imagined!"
Puck flapped her wings and clapped her hands.
"What on earth is going on?!"
Orochimaru roared with wide eyes, completely confused by the situation.
What's happening with the First Hokage?
What made Orochimaru's scalp tingle the most was Hashirama's earlier words.
If he had been a bit faster, the Reanimation Jutsu for the Second Hokage might have also been undone.
After all, the Second Hokage invented Reanimation Jutsu. It was impossible for him not to know how to perform the hand seals.
"Orochimaru, I've warned you before that meddling with time has no good outcome!"
Sarutobi's voice was deep and melancholy.
