Chapter 472: Want to Go Get Something to Eat?

Lian Ye cannot guarantee whether his conversation with Tuan Cang was discovered by the hidden white absolute.

Even if it were known, it wouldn't matter.

From Ban Daye's attitude toward him, it is highly likely that he guessed Lian Ye has other intentions.

But the two have remained tacitly aware of each other.

Perhaps Ban Daye is waiting for the day Lian Ye slips up.

But it won't be many days.

After enduring the Ninja Alliance, he will tell Madara Uchiha the truth.

Lian Ye feels his current strength can already contend with the aged Ban Daye.

Even though the opponent possesses the Rinnegan, he is not especially fearful.

If he truly can't win, he'll run away and go back to the Village to stir up the villagers.

He believes Qianshou Feijian and Zhi Cun Tuan Zang are happy to join forces against Madara Uchiha!

Moreover, Lian Ye thinks his chance of victory is high, so he doesn't need to return to the Village to stir up the villagers at all.

If it weren't for the Ninja Alliance buying time, he would have wanted to go straight back to the base to act against Ban Daye.

Forget it, we'll talk about it later.

An afternoon passes, and it's unknown whether A Fei has returned.

Lian Ye returned to the reef where he had been lying in the sun, and the quiet sea surface was filled only with the sound of waves crashing against the rocks.

He stood alone on the reef, gazing at the distant horizon.

After an unknown amount of time, two tiny black specks suddenly appeared in the distance, racing toward his position at breakneck speed.

They were A Fei and Shanjiaoyu Banzang, who had rushed from Rain Country.

"Lord Lian Ye, I've brought you a helper!" A Fei arrived nearby, panting and exclaiming excitedly.

Since receiving Lian Ye's order, it has raced nonstop toward Rain Hidden Village to inform Shanjiaoyu Banzang, and then, without a moment's pause, ran back.

"Poison Master, I'm here to help you," Shanjiaoyu Banzang panted lightly, his muffled voice coming through his anti‑poison mask.

It should be noted that Rain Country is not far from Water Country.

Even a Shadow-level Strongman at full speed still spent a considerable amount of time.

At this moment, it was already dawn.

"You're hungry, aren't you?" Lian Ye said, "Shall we go get something to eat?"

Shanjiaoyu Banzang: "……"

So this is the Ten Thousand Fires Urgent that the white creature mentioned, and Poison Master is anxiously waiting for him in Water Country?

Along the way, A Fei kept urging Shanjiaoyu Banzang.

When they finally arrived, Lian Ye let him eat first?

That doesn't look very urgent at all!

In a small town of Water Country.

Inside a sushi shop.

"Enjoy your meal!" the server placed the ingredients on the table and then turned away.

"Eating? Why aren't you eating?"

Lian Ye picked up a piece of sushi and put it in his mouth, noticing Shanjiaoyu Banzang sitting motionless, and quickly reminded him.

Shanjiaoyu Banzang glanced at the surrounding diners, then at Lian Ye eating sushi in front of him, his mouth twitching beneath the mask.

Is it that he doesn't want to eat?

He simply cannot control the toxin inside him; if he removes the anti‑poison mask, poison gas will leak out.

Then everyone in the restaurant would suffer.

"Sorry, I forgot you can't eat right now."

Lian Ye slapped his head and suddenly realized.

"That's fine, after I finish I'll pack a portion for you and find a spot with no one around to eat."

"Poison Master, aren't you in a hurry?"

Shanjiaoyu Banzang looked at Lian Ye enjoying the delicacy and couldn't help asking.

He had heard about the Ninja Alliance and the mysterious person while in Rain Country.

He immediately guessed the mysterious person was Lian Ye.

He had thought that being summoned for help was a Ten Thousand Fires Urgent matter, but now it seems that's not the case.

Shanjiaoyu Banzang saw no hint of urgency on Lian Ye's face, as if he were not at all hurried about failing to capture the Tailed Beast.

In fact, his guess was correct; Lian Ye truly wasn't in any hurry.

Moreover, that someone was even deliberately stalling for time.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here to eat.

"These matters can't be rushed; you need a full stomach to have the strength to work."

Lian Ye kept shoving sushi into his mouth while mumbling indistinctly.

Water Country truly lives up to being a maritime nation; the fish ingredients here are fresh!

When returning to the Village, he must bring a few fish back.

So that Qianshou Feijian that old kid can taste what top‑grade sashimi really is.

With the Flying Thunder God Technique, he can arrive in the shortest time, greatly ensuring the freshness of the ingredients.

Shanjiaoyu Banzang: "……"

He can only sit opposite, watching Lian Ye continuously shove food into his mouth.

He thought to himself, in a situation like this, how could anyone still have the appetite to eat?

"Waiter, pack another portion to go!"

Lian Ye, having eaten his fill, didn't forget to pack a portion for Banzang to take away.

The man had come all this way to help; it wouldn't be right not to treat him to a meal.

The two left the sushi shop one after the other and arrived at a dense forest in the distance.

"Here, your food." Lian Ye handed the Food Box containing sushi to Banzang.

"Thank you, Poison Master."

Shanjiaoyu Banzang didn't stand on ceremony and decisively took the Food Box.

He hadn't been very hungry at first, but after watching Lian Ye eat so heartily just now, he'd unconsciously grown hungry.

He took off the gas mask on his face, picked up a piece of sushi, and put it into his mouth; his eyes immediately lit up.

The taste was really good!

No wonder the Poison Master had eaten so much—the ingredients were far too fresh!

Lian Ye leaned against a tree trunk in the distance, watching Shanjiaoyu Banzang devour food frantically, and shook his head helplessly.

Look how hungry the kid was.

"Lord Lian Ye, when are we going to fight back?" A Fei poked his head out of the ground and asked expectantly.

Having learned from last time, this time he had specially gathered a thousand Bai Jue, almost summoning everyone he could.

Plus, with Lord Lian Ye and Shanjiaoyu Banzang working together, there was a very high chance they could take the Six-Tails Jinchuriki out of the Ninja Alliance's hands!

A Fei didn't plan to tell Lian Ye about his arrangements.

He wanted to give Lord Lian Ye a surprise.

He believed that when Lord Lian Ye saw a White Zetsu Army of this scale, he would definitely be shocked speechless!

He felt his plan had no problems at all; it would surely hold back the Ninja Alliance and buy the two of them an opportunity!

Heh heh heh!

A Fei could already imagine the scene of Lord Lian Ye and Lord Ban praising him, saying he'd done a good job.

At this moment, Lian Ye still hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation.

"A Fei, don't rush; we need to find the right timing."

Although he said this, in truth he just wanted to stall for another two days.

"So that's how it is!" A Fei suddenly understood.

He hadn't expected that with Lord Lian Ye's intelligence, he would know to look for the best timing.

In A Fei's impression, Lian Ye had always been just a reckless man who never liked to use his brain.

If he had used his brain back then, he would never have walked straight into the Ninja Alliance Camp.

It seemed he had indeed underestimated Lord Lian Ye a little.

…

ps: Haven't seen you for a day, did you miss me? Heh heh heh!
