Chapter I
Beginnings of Konohagakure no Sato
"You're certainly strong; Hyūga-san" Senju Hashirama panted out, "To be able to seal my chakra," he shook his head, "Your Byakugan is certainly impressive Hyūga -san."
Hyūga Hiroto smirked at him, inclining his head slightly. "Indeed," Pale eyes flashed across the grassy plain. "Though your Mokuton isn't to be underestimated either." His dark hair twitched in the wind, tilting his head to the side he asked, "Though, I doubt that is what you came to ask. Speak quickly Senju-san."
Hashirama's face quirked into a grin, before settling into stony determination. "I'm tired of fighting all the time Hiroto-san." He stated plainly.
Hiroto stared at him for a moment "So you have come to admit the Hyūga Clan's superiority?" He asked tentatively.
"No I did not." He replied. "Every time one of our clans is hired, the opposition hires the other. Each of our clans is a counter to the other. With your Jūken you can cut through my Mokuton. And with my Mokuton I can us nature itself against you. No I came here with a proposition for your clan."
Hiroto quirked an eyebrow at him, crossing his arms he asked. "A proposition," His voice was laced with amusement and questioning. "And what pray tell could you possibly offer the Hyūga Clan?"
Hashirama mentally grinned as he explained his idea of 'Hidden Villages.' The stoic man across from him listened in rapt attention. After he finished he paused allowing Hiroto to sort through all of the information.
Hiroto mulled the idea around in his head for a few moments. "And if we were to accept where would this village be placed?" he asked.
Hashirama smiled in relief; at least the Hyūga leader was considering the idea. He pulled out a map of the continent and pointed to a spot in the south. "I've already gotten an offer from the Daimyo of Hi no Kuni."
"You want to locate it in Hi no Kuni?" Hiroto asked him, shaking his head. "Hi no Kuni is just a heap of barren land. You would be better off in Kaminari no Kuni." He chuckled dryly. "How could you possibly live there?"
Hashirama smirked at him and pointed to a barren patch of land a few feet away. After making a few hand signs the patch of land exploded into vibrant flowers, grass, and soon a sapling grew from it, turning into an apple tree. Chuckling he replied, "Leave that to my clan."
Hiroto's pale eyes stared at him for a moment before turning and walking away. Pausing under the apple tree, he reached out and touched it. "I shall speak to the rest of the clan. I will contact you with our decision." He walked further into the shade the tree provided and disappeared.
Four Days Later – Same Location
The two clans stood opposite each other on each side of the field as their leaders sat at a table underneath the apple tree. Their wives stood behind each of them, with Senju Hanako holding onto a newborn boy. Hyūga Hikari stood behind Hiroto holding her pregnant stomach.
Hiroto and Hashirama stared at each other, occasionally glancing at the paper before them; an official document signed by the Daimyo of Hi no Kuni and by both clan heads.
"You know Hyūga–san; our two clans' won't be enough for this village." Hashirama's brown eyes twinkled in mirth. "We'll have to recruit more." Hashirama stated adding the Senju clan symbol to the treaty.
"Hai, I had thought about that as well. And I have a few ideas of those that would be possible." Hiroto replied adding the Hyūga seal to the document. "Now what shall we call this alliance of ours?"He asked.
Before Hashirama could reply a breeze blew through the area causing the tree to shake and leaves to fall onto the table partially obscuring the paper. Hashirama grinned broadly, "Konohagakure no Sato. The Village Hidden in the Leaves."
They stood on the border of Hi no Kuni and Kusa no Kuni, staring at the barren expanse of land before them. Hiroto turned to Hashirama, "Well How do you plan to make this place….habitable." he asked.
Hashirama grinned before turning towards his brother. "Nii-san, if you would please?"
Senju Tobirama nodded and clapped his hands together, calling out the name of his technique. "Suiton: Suishōha." Water from the air condensed above them spiraling into a vortex. He clapped his hands again and water erupted from the vortex into a tidal wave. It carved through the valley and splashed against the mountain in the middle. After settling it was quickly absorbed into the ground making it a sort of mud pit. Tobirama panted in exertion as his eyes rolled into the back of his head and he passed out.
Hiroto raised his eyebrow at Hashirama; "Is he alright?"
Hashirama chuckled. "He'll be out of it for a while."
Hiroto chuckled. After a moment Hashirama waved his arm, signaling other members of his clan. "Come on Take your positions!"
Most of the Senju clan stepped forward, spacing themselves evenly at Hashirama's nod they all began making hand signs. They finished by clapping their hands as Hashirama called out, "Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kōtan!"
Trees erupted from the ground quickly spreading beyond the horizon as many of the Senju clan fell unconscious from chakra loss.
Hashirama panted in exhaustion as he turned to the leader of the Hyūga clan. "Welcome to our new home." His eyes rolled into the back of his head, the last thing he saw was the ground coming to meet his face.
A month later after the village was complete Hashirama donned the new Hokage robes. They were white and red along with a white and red hat with the kanji for 'Fire shadow' on the front.
