1) Regeneration does indeed come from Hashirama's cells. It is stated throughout the manga and databook. And it empowers the character to higher lengths such as enabling Orochimaru gaining enough power to suppress the second Hokage. Orochimaru already had regeneration. With Hashirama's his is enhanced more. He also won't have to rely on the taxing jutsu that shedding his body causes. Orochimaru's Gathering of the Snakes to fix bisection and Hashirama's Regeneration Ability that happens in mere moments in conjunction together? Yea, that's definitely useful.

2) Mayfly is wood release. Stated in the Manga and Databook. Don't know where you're pulling your information from seeing as how you called it Earth Release. Also when used, you're signature cannot be tracked by even a sensory shinobi. You also merge with the ground and can still observe your surroundings. I suggest you do the proper research before talking about the subject. I don't see how that ability is "useless" when Orochimaru can literally phase into the ground whenever he desires and Minato will never be able to detect where he's going to come from next. Then it has high speed movement to allow the person to appear anywhere they desire in high speeds. Orochimaru can literally use this, and strike Minato from his blind spot whenever he desires. Or when Minato tries to cover the terrain with his kunai. Orochimaru can easily use it to remove the kunai safely or move to another location. That's just many of the perks of one ability from Wood Release. @lone Nina You are again missing the point. My point is Oro's wood Release mastery is featless. You could name as many wood tech but they really don't matter because he hasn't shown it. Saying Orochimaru can do any of those technique would be same as saying minato can do Rasenshuriken or Kirin just because he has those release.
