Soon...

Winter is officially here.

The two Uchiha brothers, who came back before winter, also officially "wintered" at home.

This day.

The children at home went for a picnic.

Yes, it is the activity that Senju Naoki promised to his school friends before. As parents, how could Senju Hashirama and Uchiha not help their children realize this little wish? Sometimes, the younger the child, the more

Want face.

Of course, Qianju Tobijian has also made various arrangements very properly to ensure that there will be no accidents.

"The woods are really beautiful after it snows~" Tsunade stood quietly in the snow wearing the winter clothes her parents carefully prepared for her, and said with emotion with a smile on her face - I have to say, she does have a beautiful face.

With such a cute face, she can be said to be a "little princess" at this moment. If she were surrounded by a circle of small animals, she would be a proper "princess on the run".

Just at this moment...

A passing white-haired cat showed a bad smile, and then raised its foot and kicked the tree next to the little girl hard.

The tree trunks shook.

All the falling snow fell down, turning the beautiful little girl into a snowman.

"Pfft!" Naoki Senju on the side covered his mouth.

The same goes for Hatake Sakumo and Senju Hideki.

After a moment of silence, Tsunade silently stretched out her hand, wiped the snow off her face, and then shouted angrily: "Since - come - also -!!! You bastard!!!!!!"

The white-haired boy, who also had white hair but was obviously much more naughty than Hatake Sakumo, stuck out his tongue and made a face at the angry little girl, and then ran away.

"You guy, stop here!!!" Tsunade angrily chased after her, swearing that if she didn't beat this guy out today, she would not be the granddaughter of the first-generation grandfather and the second-generation grandmother!

"...It's making trouble again." Senju Hideki's little face was speechless, "Brother Jiraiya can't beat Xiao Tsuna, why do you like to provoke her so much every time?"

Senju Naoki said with a serious face: "This is the bad nature of men."

Senju Hideki: "???"

Hatake Sakumo rolled his eyes and thought, "How many hairs have you grown? That's all you can say? Of course, you can't say this, because according to Naoki's character of holding grudges, he will

Trying to pull off his clothes to prove "you don't have a lot of hair", well...this guy, sometimes he and Hideki don't look like brothers at all.

It's not about looks, but personality.

Anyway, compared to Senju Naoki, who is obviously a little too smart, Hatake Sakumo still prefers the more "silly" Hideki among the two brothers. Every time he sees the latter being "stupid", he can't help but

I just want to lend a helping hand.

Because of this, the relationship between the two is very close.

"Brother Shuomao, brother, let's go build a snowman?"

"good."

"Okay, Hideki."

The three of them prepared to walk aside.

At this moment, Tsunade, who was trying to catch Jiraiya, pushed a passing black hair to the side: "Don't get in the way!"

Kuroge let out an "Ah!" and fell to the side, before being held firmly by Hatake Sakumo.

"Are you okay?"

"...No, it's okay." The boy with smooth black hair lowered his head and said a little shyly.

"Sorry, that guy Tsunade doesn't mean any harm, but once he gets angry, he doesn't pay attention to other things."

"...Hmm." The handsome boy nodded again and whispered, "I'm not angry, Sakumo-senpai."

Hatake Sakumo knew the child in front of him. He and Jiraiya had recently transferred to Tsunade's class for various reasons. Jiraiya was entrusted by Hiruzen-senpai to help take care of him, and this child named "Orochimaru"

, his father is currently very valued by Tobirama-sama because of his outstanding scientific research mind. Therefore, Tobirama-sama said that he should be taken care of a little in school.

Unlike Jiraiya, who has a lively and cheerful personality, Orochimaru's personality is relatively silent and reserved.

Overall, they are two very interesting juniors.

As Hatake Sakumo thought this, he smiled and patted Orochimaru on the shoulder: "We are going to build a snowman, shall we?"

"Can, is it okay?"

"certainly!"

So the four of them went to build a snowman together.

Senju Naoki and his younger brother pushed the snowball on the ground together. Orochimaru squatted on the ground and carefully shaped the snowball, while Hatake Sakumo jumped up and down to collect various needed accessories.

It didn't take long for a lifelike snowman to take shape. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a certain second-generation Hokage.

"It's really good..."

Just as a smile appeared on Senju Naoki's face, a "light" suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, accompanied by a scream of "Ah——".

"..."

Jiraiya, who failed to escape, was finally caught by Tsunade, lifted high up and spun around seven times before being thrown out violently.

Just in time, it fell into the arms of "Uchiha Belt Snowman".

Everyone fell silent.

After a while——

Senju Naoki collapsed and shouted: "Tsuna--!!!" What have you done to your mother!!! Sunni! This is your grandma!!!

Tsunade's expression suddenly changed, she turned around and ran away: "Oops!" There is no reason to be controlled by a mother, so she ran away!

Senju Naoki, Senju Hideki and Hatake Sakumo immediately chased after them, grabbing snowballs in their hands at the same time.

Jiraiya, who had gone through all the trouble to "pick" himself out of the snowman's arms, followed him with a smile. When he passed by Orochimaru, he grabbed him and said without looking back: "Still stunned.

What are you doing? Let’s do it together!”

"Ah..." The black-haired boy who was pulled to run was stunned for a moment, and then a small smile appeared on his face, "Yeah!"

The snow was suddenly filled with the laughter and laughter of children.

But thanks to this, the house that had been bustling since the winter vacation suddenly became quiet.

So much so that adults are not used to it.

Finally, Senju Hashirama, who was wearing a green home kimono, suggested: "Let's go out for a walk together."

What he meant by "walking around" was not to visit Konoha, but to visit various parts of the ninja world.

"Okay." Uchiha, who was wearing a dark blue home kimono, nodded. He stood up and stretched his body a little. It was indeed very comfortable to sit next to the fire "Cat Winter", but after a long time, he really wanted to move his hands and feet a little.

.

"Where are we going?" Senju Tobirama, wearing a white and green striped home kimono, stood up and asked with a smile.

"How about going to the Land of Thunder?" Uchiha Izuna, who was wearing the same kimono of the same color as his brother, suggested, "It's winter, it would be nice to have a beef hot pot." Although he can't eat it at the moment, he can watch his brother eat it.

If my brother eats it, it means he has eaten it.

"This is good." Senju Hashirama said with a smile, "You can also bring some beef back with you. If you can't buy it, just go to Raikage. He must have some connections."

The others nodded in agreement.

(Raikage:???)

Uchiha, who was wearing a black home kimono, raised his hands and stretched: "So, as usual, go to that place first?"

The rest of the people looked at each other and had no objections.

So the group of people stepped into the divine space together, and arrived soon after...

A place once known as the "Valley of the End".

Yes, this place was built after all and was successfully completed two years ago.

There are still huge stone sculptures of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara here. The two stood opposite each other, extending their right hands to each other, forming a -

Seal of Reconciliation.

Therefore, this place is also called the "Valley of Reconciliation" by many people who come to visit.

Because it is a famous tourist attraction, there is an admission fee for up-close viewing. Well, this is very reasonable. And because this attraction uses the "image rights" of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, so they can enjoy it every year

A large amount of money is collected from the ticket fees, which can be said to be "making money while lying down".

The place where Uchiha's belt was chosen was where the two people were holding the hand seal - unlike other tourists, they could stand where they wanted.

She took a deep breath of the cool winter air and said with a smile: "No matter how you look at it, these two statues are spectacular."

"Indeed." Senju Tobirama nodded in agreement.

"It's a pity," Uchiha Izunana said with some evil intentions, "it's winter and all the flowers have withered."
