Hashirama's suggestion of patting his head was not entirely out of a whim. It was mainly because his younger brother made people worry.
The older brother was about to become a grandfather, but the younger brother still hadn't had a family. How could he not be anxious?
Seeing that his days were numbered, Hashirama couldn't care much about it. As long as there was a child who could continue his younger brother's incense, it was good.
Another thing was that he did not have the heart to let a new life face such a cruel truth. It was better to let it be wrong and raise it well. After all, the appearance of this child had a responsibility that Tobirama could not separate from.
It was just that there was one thing that was hard to be sure of
'Is Tobirama the father or mother of this child?'
'Well, it is not important.'
When Tobirama heard this, his expression immediately became extremely brilliant. He did not have the slightest bit of defense. The 'surprise' had come too suddenly, and it was something that he could not accept at all.
"No, I don't agree."
"This matter started because of you. Could it be that you want to shirk responsibility?"
"I can hand it over to someone else to raise..."
"That is your child. You actually have the heart to hand it over to someone else?"
"!"
Tobirama's chest heaved violently. He was obviously angered by Hashirama's words. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "This was just an accident. I can only guarantee that I will not continue to experiment with this child and will not tell anyone the truth."
Hashirama was obviously a little disappointed, but he also knew that his stubborn younger brother was not so easy to convince. To be able to do so much for that innocent child, he could be considered to have a clear conscience.
Thus, he could only nod his head helplessly, "Then that's it. If you are not at ease and hand it over to someone else to raise it, then I and Mito are also idle. We can take advantage of this last bit of time to help you take care of the child. Maybe after Ayako's child is born, they can be playmates."
Tobirama, who had already stood up, suddenly paused. He seemed to have forgotten that the big brother sitting in front of him now was no longer the powerful God of Ninja World, but an 'ordinary person' who was tortured by illness but still smiled at his remaining time.
And for ordinary people, what was more important than family?
Tobirama found that he seemed to understand his big brother's mentality and thoughts at this time. He turned around coldly and left. Only when his figure disappeared outside the door did he say, "It's up to you to be happy..."
Hashirama chuckled, "A fellow who speaks but doesn't speak his heart."
There were so many places that he could go to with Flying Thunder, and there was no lack of very secretive places. Why did Tobirama have to fly back to the mansion and walk with a baby in his arms?
If he really didn't want him to know, Hashirama believed that Tobirama had plenty of ways to hide it, just like when he secretly developed the Edo Tensei.
The reason why he did this was probably because he wanted to find an excuse for himself?
.....
"Wow, is this Uncle Tobirama's child? It's so cute! His hair is actually half black and half white. Is it because his mother has black hair?"
Under Tobirama's tacit approval, Hashirama took the child out without hesitation. After all, it was obvious from his attitude that Tobirama would not take the child.
In order to hide the truth, Hashirama simply threw the blame on Tobirama.
As a result, Senju Ayako, who was at home peacefully taking care of her child, did not have any doubts at all. When she saw the little baby, she hugged it in her arms with maternal love.
As the daughter of Hashirama and Mito, Senju Ayako had inherited her mother's beautiful long red hair. On the contrary, she did not have any superior talents in the aspect of ninjas.
But it did not matter. With such a powerful father, there were very few opportunities for her to personally fight.
"Cough cough..."
On the side, Senju Tobirama really wanted to say, 'He is not, don't talk nonsense!'
However, when Hashirama looked at him with a warning look, Tobirama, who was happy to be a father, could only look away sullenly.
"Before, I always thought that Uncle Tobirama would die alone. I didn't expect that he would even have a child silently. It is really good to keep it a secret."
Senju Ayako, with a big belly, teased the baby very much.
The Uzumaki relative who was about to become a grandmother also seemed to be very fond of this child. She even deliberately said, "I don't know which girl is the scourge. The good flying thunder god technique will not be used by someone for a tryst, right? I think that when I elect Hokage in the future, I can't just look at the background and strength, but also check the character."
"That's right, that's right. Uncle Tobirama, quickly tell me the truth. Who is the mother of the child?" Senju Ayako also echoed with indignation.
Tobirama blushed and looked at his idiot brother with murderous eyes.
Hashirama smiled awkwardly and scratched his head. He put his arm around Tobirama's shoulder and laughed awkwardly, "I think he is called Izuna? Right, Tobirama, hahaha..."
'Izuna??'
Tobirama really wanted to kill someone, but he had no choice but to cooperate and grit his teeth, "Yes, he... she... had a difficult birth... and died..."
After gritting his teeth, Tobirama closed his eyes and felt that his entire life's integrity had been shattered.
'What a sin, ah!'
However, Ayako did not know that his current behavior was a sign of 'excessive sadness'.
Therefore, Ayako immediately said apologetically, "Uncle Tobirama, my condolences."
Kacha...
"Huh? What's that sound?"
Hashirama, who suddenly had a broken rib, took a deep breath and said while enduring the pain, "It's okay. I... I seem to have dodged to the waist."
"Seriously, you are so old. Why are you still so worried? Hurry up and sit down."
"Be gentle, it hurts, it hurts..."
Tobirama, who silently retracted his hand, finally let out a sigh of relief. Meeting such an unreliable big brother, he really felt tired.
Therefore, he decided that if this guy dared to talk nonsense again, next time, he might as well break all his ribs...
He should not be in such a difficult position since he had been lying on the bed all this time.
"By the way, Uncle Tobirama, have you given the child a name?" Senju Ayako suddenly asked curiously.
"Uh..."
Tobirama was suddenly asked.
"Let's call it... Haru."
"Haru? Is it as warm as the real sun? It seems that Uncle Tobirama has great expectations for Haru---"
Tobirama shouted in his heart numbly, 'I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense!'
'It was just a random name, why would it be excessively interpreted?'
Then, he heard Hashirama cover his ribs and say, "En, Senju Haru, a pretty good name."
'Fuck!'
'Why was he surnamed Senju?!'
Tobirama almost couldn't help but want to tear down the other ribs of Hashirama. How could he cheat his younger brother like this?!
However, he couldn't explain anything. In the end, he could only pinch his nose and admit it. It was a grievance.
