This Miss Senju Hashiko seems to be no simple person.
The following scene left Oda Sakunosuke extremely surprised.
He had originally thought that when Senju Hashirama said he was skilled at healing, he meant he had good medical skills; he never expected that the man was actually a precious healing ability user!
A green light emerged from Senju Hashirama's hands, gently brushing over Uchiha Shisui's body. In an instant, those injuries vanished; it was a truly terrifying healing ability.
There all done." Senju Hashirama clapped his hands, looking as if he had accomplished a great feat. "You can take the bandages off your eyes tonight.
Uchiha Shisui felt the ocular power in his eyes recover after a long absence, the last trace of doubt dissipated. He said to Senju Hashirama with excitement, "Lord First, may I follow you?" For someone who had grown up in Konohagakure, the appearance of the First Hokage was no different from a deity suddenly appearing before a believer.
"No need. I am someone who has long since retired from the stage, so there is nothing to follow. Besides, this is not the Ninja world, you don't need to carry any burdens. While you are still young, you can do anything you want, as long as it doesn't harm others." Senju Hashirama watched Uchiha Shisui with a smile; this was not his original world. In that case, outsiders like them had no need to interfere in the lives of the natives of this world.
By the way, remember to keep this a secret from Izuna," Senju Hashirama said, placing his index finger to his lips and making a shushing gesture toward the two of them. "It would be troublesome if he found out I was with Madara.
Before leaving, he couldn't help but rub Uchiha Shisui's small curls; perhaps it was because the Uchiha of his time had witnessed the struggles between the Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan, so there were very few Uchiha as well-behaved as him.
“Hashiko-san.” Yukari Momiji bowed slightly. She was dressed in a magnificent red kimono and had just left the boss's office to take the elevator when she happened to face Senju Hashirama as he stepped out.
“Hello! Miss Kiko.” Senju Hashirama stopped in his tracks, flashed a big smile at Ozaki Kiko, then continued walking forward.
Only after watching Senju Hashirama walk into the leader Uchiha Madara's room did Ozaki Momiji enter the elevator.
No matter how much the executives complained about the name "Hashiko" in their hearts, they were still required to show respect to Miss Hashiko, because their leader, Uchiha Madara, had given them all secret orders that seeing "Senju Hashiko" was like seeing him, she never had to report when entering the leader's room!
Regarding such an order, they could only obey at first due to the leader's command, they felt very aggrieved in their hearts. After all, in their understanding, "Senju Hashiko" might just be the leader's lover; while the executives said nothing to their faces about being suppressed by a lover, they still felt very dissatisfied with the situation deep down.
It wasn't until they had spent some time working with her that they were truly convinced by this Miss Senju Hashiko, they gradually began to feel fortunate for her arrival. Miss Hashiko was truly of immense value!
First of all, Miss Senju Hashiko herself possesses a rare and precious healing ability; anyone who passes through her hands can be saved from any injury, no matter how severe, as long as they can be stabilized in one breath. Everyone suffers injuries at some point, having a healer like her means she is an absolute trump card capable of turning the tide in critical moments. The Port Mafia happens to lack this type of ability user, making her truly unique and irreplaceable.
This single factor alone was enough to make anyone who knew her ability treat her with the utmost respect.
Secondly, before Senju Hashirama arrived, Uchiha Madara was already prepared to annex other domestic organizations, was even eyeing foreign organizations. Uchiha Izuna had consistently offered nothing but support for Uchiha Madara's actions. Setting aside the other executives, Mori Ougai alone could not accept this; he had become the leader of the Port Mafia to carry out his teacher Natsume Soseki's "Three-Part Concept." If the Port Mafia were to directly become a behemoth that destroyed the balance, what concept would he have left to envision!
Moreover, if the Port Mafia became powerful enough to disrupt the balance between organizations, it would easily incite hostility from the state. If the state were to take serious action, Uchiha Madara might be fine, but those under him would be in trouble. However, as soon as Senju Hashirama arrived, Uchiha Madara's entire attention shifted to Senju Hashirama, he miraculously ceased all those movements.
Therefore, everyone who knows of the existence of "Senju Hashiko" now sincerely hopes this lady continues to be so favored.
As Senju Hashirama pushed the door open and walked in, he saw Uchiha Madara standing alone by the window. The pale yellow light cast a gentle filter over him, making him look nothing like his usual, overwhelming self that could cut people with a single glance.
He couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile; this was what he truly wanted. Only he alone could see Uchiha Madara like this—without any other interruptions, without having to consider the village or any other problems, just a world shared by him and Uchiha Madara.
"You're back." Uchiha Madara turned his head to look at the incoming Senju Hashirama.
“Mm.” Senju Hashirama walked over and stood behind him.
“Hashirama, people are always like this—endless greed, ceaseless conflict.” Uchiha Madara's expression was cold; the intelligence sent by Saeki Momiji just now had made him very unhappy. “This world is no different from the world of Shinobi; they are both equally disappointing.”
“And how many times have I told you, don't always stand behind me!” he said, sounding somewhat agitated and awkward.
"Don't think so much, Madara!" Senju Hashirama suddenly reached out from behind, wrapping his arms around Uchiha Madara's waist and leaning against him.
Uchiha Madara was startled by Senju Hashirama's sudden movement of wrapping his arms around his waist, was just about to lose his temper and punch him.
“You always look too far ahead, last time you even left me behind,” Senju Hashirama sighed, gently nuzzling against Uchiha Madara's bristling long hair, as if drawing something from him. “Slow down this time, wait for me, let me see it with you too!”
Uchiha Madara's hand, which had been poised to strike, gradually lowered, his unruly gaze softened under Senju Hashirama's movements.
Forget it, Uchiha Madara thought tolerantly. It was rare for Hashirama to be so sentimental, so he would offer him a little comfort.

This chapter has had me stuck for a whole day; I feel like I can't write even a ten-thousandth of their divine love (crying).
Chapter 16
Although Uchiha Madara was thinking of comforting Senju Hashirama, he soon felt that he could no longer endure it.
Because Senju Hashirama was still maintaining his transformation technique, the current posture of the two of them allowed Uchiha Madara to clearly feel those two highly present masses behind him, making him feel increasingly uncomfortable.
“Hashirama!” Uchiha Madara couldn't help but move, wanting to get away from him.
"What's wrong?" Senju Hashirama felt strange as Uchiha Madara moved around, instead of loosening his grip, he tightened it and even rubbed against him.
Uchiha Madara kept a stony expression, the soft sensation against his back becoming even more vivid.
He still couldn't help himself; he'd just have to beat him up first, Uchiha Madara clenched his fists.
"Augh!" Senju Hashirama took a punch from Uchiha Madara and couldn't help but let out a miserable cry, yet even so, he didn't let go, tightly clutching Uchiha Madara's waist.
Immediately after, the sound of banging and crashing echoed from within the office.
The soundproofing in the leader's office was quite good; despite the loud commotion, people outside could not hear clearly what was specifically happening inside. Consequently, the guards outside, listening to the faint sounds drifting through, allowed their imaginations to run wild, thinking to themselves that the leader certainly knew how to have a good time.
Uchiha Madara's reputation suffered another blow today (smile).
Oda Sakunosuke felt that something was wrong the moment he reached the door. As soon as he pushed it open, he saw two people in the house; one person was pinning the other to the floor. Upon seeing him enter, one of them struggled to pull a hand out from under the person pinning him and waved at him joyfully.
Oda-kun, you're finally back!
Dazai?" Oda Sakunosuke looked in confusion at the scene where his good friend Dazai Osamu and Uchiha Shisui were facing off. "What are you doing at my place?
I heard some noise coming from this direction just now, when I came out, I saw this gentleman jumping in through the window. I thought a thief had broken into your house," Dazai Osamu explained with a smile, showing no sign of the misery of being pinned to the ground. "So I came in to take a look.
Climbing through the window?" Oda Sakunosuke asked in confusion. "I thought you had my keys on you, Shisui?
Facing Oda Sakunosuke's question, Uchiha Shisui gave a shy smile and quickly released Dazai Osamu. "Sorry, I'm just used to going through windows."
After all, jumping through windows was standard procedure for a Ninja; he had been jumping through windows for as many years as he had been a Ninja, he couldn't break that habit anytime soon.
"In the end, as soon as I entered, I heard this gentleman using a wire to pick the lock, so I thought he was planning something nefarious and restrained him," he said, looking a bit embarrassed.
Then why were you using wire to pick the lock, Dazai?" Oda Sakunosuke asked, turning to stare at Dazai Osamu after hearing Uchiha Shisui's words. "I remember you have a key as well.
Dazai Osamu had already said when the two of them first moved in that Oda-kun might one day use the excuse of forgetting his keys to snatch a copy of his house keys.
I never carry keys!" Dazai Osamu said righteously, "A wire lockpick is much faster than a key!
Shut up! Dazai, have you forgotten that you're no longer in the Port Mafia? The moment you open your mouth, you expose the fact that you're not a good person!
Even someone with a temperament as good as Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help but feel the headache one gets when dealing with a brat after being repeatedly struck by such bizarre remarks.
Never mind Dazai Osamu, whose terrible personality was already set in stone, but why would even a well-behaved child like Uchiha Shisui act this way?
"Oda-kun, I'm leaving." Uchiha Shisui suddenly said with a serious expression.
"What is it?" Oda Sakunosuke understood more or less; after all, he had already gone through this same routine twice before.
Since my injuries have healed, I can't keep troubling you like this." Uchiha Shisui scratched his head. "I want to go out and do something meaningful.
Oda Sakunosuke looked at the light in the other's eyes and nodded slightly. After spending time together during this period, he had gained some understanding of Uchiha Shisui, he felt quite relieved knowing that, given the other's character, he would be able to handle whatever work he went out to do.
“Then go and do what you want to do!”
"Thank you for taking care of me during this time!" Uchiha Shisui bowed to Oda Sakunosuke in thanks, then waved and walked away.
"This Uchiha Shisui is truly different from the other two Uchihas," Dazai Osamu remarked, watching the departing Uchiha Shisui from the side.
Although this youth named Uchiha Shisui is also very powerful, compared to the peerless prestige of Uchiha Madara and the cunning and seasoned nature of Uchiha Izuna, he could simply be described as fresh and green.
“Let's go, let's go!” As he spoke, Dazai Osamu suddenly pulled Oda Sakunosuke up. "Since there's no one left at your place to take care of, let's go grab a drink together."
Although Uchiha Shisui was rejected by Senju Hashirama, once his injuries had healed, he still stubbornly went to the Port Mafia to follow his First Hokage.
A Port Mafia executive: Another Uchiha has arrived!
Moreover, this Uchiha Shisui is different from the previous Uchiha Izuna; he is not Uchiha Madara's younger brother, but rather the great-great-grandson of the previous two Uchihas.
What a massive generational gap!
The first Uchiha became their leader.
The second Uchiha took over their rear-line management.
Mori Ougai smiled. "I wonder what this third Uchiha is like?"
The other executives remained silent, their thoughts being much the same.
But soon, these executives discovered something was wrong; this Uchiha didn't seem to be coming for their leader, Lord Uchiha Madara, but was instead coming for the leader's lover, Miss Hashiko.
These executives couldn't help but marvel at how immense this Miss "Hashiko's" charm truly was.
I can't help but feel that the Boss's hair is getting greener and greener.
However, after spending some time together, they discovered that Uchiha Shisui's personality was almost on par with the only conscience within the Port Mafia.
The two young men, both dressed in white, sat facing each other.
The young man on the left side of the table wore a white hat, with his short hair and thin frame, he looked as if a gust of wind could blow him over. He smiled as he handed a piece of paper to the long-haired young man sitting opposite him.
“I think you might find this interesting,” Fyodor said meaningfully.
The long-haired youth sitting on the right had a pale complexion and lacked the vitality of a normal person. Even indoors, he wore a thick shawl, it was only upon hearing Fyodor's words that he slowly took the paper.
The new leader of the Port Mafia, Uchiha Madara..
Ability unknown, known to have purple armor reaching a hundred meters in height, Body Flicker Technique..
Fukuzawa Yukichi grew more and more excited the more he watched, his red eyes, which had originally been filled with decadence, gradually began to brighten.
Such powerful and unknown abilities—it truly gave him, a collector of abilities, an exhilarating feeling. He hoped the other party's performance would not disappoint him.
It was still the familiar Lupin Bar.
"Today is to celebrate Oda sending off another Uchiha!" Dazai Osamu shouted, raising his wine glass high.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help but press his forehead against his hand upon hearing this, but in the end, he said nothing. Forget it, Dazai Osamu had been like this for a long time; there was no changing him.
"It feels like Oda-kun is like a father, sending off one Uchiha after another," Dazai Osamu discussed with Sakaguchi Ango with a grin.
Exactly!" Sakaguchi Ango nodded in deep agreement. "And on top of that, you unfilial son is constantly leeching off the elderly.
"I just look a bit more mature!" Oda Sakunosuke protested. "But if Dazai is willing, it's no problem for me to keep looking after him forever," to prevent Dazai from going down a wrong path.
I don't want to!" Dazai Osamu said petulantly. "If I'm always with Oda-kun, wouldn't that mean I'll never find a partner? That would be too tragic!
Next, Oda Sakunosuke was not only dismissed by Dazai Osamu as an excuse to go drinking, but he also had to support the drunken Dazai Osamu all the way home. As Oda Sakunosuke stepped out of Dazai Osamu's doorway and was about to head toward his own home, his gaze froze.
Just after having sent Dazai Osamu home, the ground in front of Oda Sakunosuke's house, which had been empty just moments ago, now had a dark shadow cast upon it.
