Chapter 524: Do You Know Yuzhi Bo Lianye?
"Do you know Yuzhi Bo Lianye?"
Zhi Cun Tuan Zang always felt something was off, and at last realized what it was.
In Jingyin's narration, only Yuanfei Rizhan appeared, and Lian Ye was not mentioned at all.
That is worth suspecting.
Could it be that Lian Ye does not exist in this timeline?
"Eh? Yuzhi Bo Lianye?" Jingyin looked bewildered, "I don't know…"
The Uchiha Clan was annihilated long ago; where could she go to meet someone from the Uchiha Clan?
Besides, she left the village with Lady Gangshou since childhood, so she knows little about the Uchiha Clan's strong members.
She only knows people like Shisui Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha.
As for Yuzhi Bo Lianye, she has never heard of him; he must be an unimportant person.
He may have been killed by Itachi Uchiha during the Genocide Night.
Zhi Cun Tuan Zang nodded knowingly; this timeline is completely different from the one he inhabits.
He cannot view the issue through his original perspective.
"Jingyin, who are you talking to?"
The comatose Gangshou woke up, her face frail, and asked.
As she spoke, her gaze fell on Lian Ye and Tuan Zang, not understanding who these two were.
Why are they appearing here?
"Lord Gangshou, they…"
Jingyin was about to explain, but realized she didn't know the two's exact identities, and for a moment didn't know what to say.
"Xiaogang, you're awake."
Lian Ye noticed Gangshou's puzzled gaze and said with a smile.
Although the Gangshou who grew up watching him since childhood is not the same person, the bond formed over the years still exists.
"Who are you?"
Gangshou frowned slightly; this guy actually dared to address her that way!
Only when Xiaogang's grandparents were alive would he call her that…
And Lian Ye, who looks young, still dares to call her that.
Gangshou instantly felt offended.
If her body hadn't been unrecovered, she would definitely have gotten up and severely scolded this insolent guy!
"It's normal you don't know me; as for my identity, I'll leave that for later. You rest well."
Lian Ye said this and led Tuan Zang out of the infirmary.
Gangshou stared intently at Lian Ye's departing back, constantly feeling that this guy was speaking to her in an elder's tone.
Clearly she is older, yet there is no sense of incongruity.
The more she looks, the stranger it seems.
"Watch them."
Gangshou ordered the surrounding shadows and had Jingyin summon the Medical Ninja from earlier.
……
"You mean they have the Hokage Advisor's token?" Gangshou's face looked displeased.
Could it be that Zhuan Qin Xiaochun and Shuihu Menyan, those two old guys, made it?
Or perhaps… Zhi Cun Tuan Zang!
Wait, that person just now looked somewhat similar to Zhi Cun Tuan Zang, further strengthening her suspicion.
It might be that Tuan Zang wants to become Hokage completely, so he sent an illegitimate son to visit her.
Gangshou let out a cold snort.
As long as she is present, Zhi Cun Tuan Zang's plan will never succeed!
She has already learned from Jingyin that Zhi Cun Tuan Zang, while she was comatose, used his connections to become acting Hokage.
However, she has now revived, and in a short while will be able to resume handling state affairs.
Zhi Cun Tuan Zang's tenure as acting Hokage has reached its end.
After the Five Kage Summit ends and he returns, he can be relieved of his post.
If the old man hadn't been so indecisive, Zhi Cun Tuan Zang wouldn't have been able to get up at all.
Since she has become Hokage, she will certainly prevent such incidents from happening again!
Konoha Village.
"Lian Ye, this timeline lacks your existence; don't you find it shocking?"
Zhi Cun Tuan Zang noticed his good brother's face was very indifferent and couldn't help asking.
"It's normal, it's just a parallel timeline," Lian Ye said nonchalantly.
In his original timeline, he probably died long ago in the First Ninja World War.
Even if he survived by chance, he would die in the Second Ninja World War.
If luck were overwhelming and he survived the first two, the Third Shinobi World War would still be extremely perilous.
Even if the original host were the chosen one, surviving all three Ninja World Wars…
He would still be killed on Genocide Night.
Anyway, wanting to survive is simply impossible!
Tuan Zang: "..."
Being able to stay calm in the face of such matters, this guy really is as big‑hearted as ever!
Jingyin said, "In this timeline you went to attend the Five Kage Summit; shall we go take a look?"
Lian Ye began to lure his good brother to Tie Zhi Guo; otherwise how would he watch the show?
In his view, a good brother would never refuse.
Zhi Cun Tuan Zang heard that and his heart fluttered instantly; who wouldn't want to see themselves in another timeline?
Although his self in this timeline is a bit of a loser, he did become Acting Hokage, right?
Then he can chat with him about his experience governing the village.
"Fine."
As Lian Ye had expected, Tuan Cang had no reason to refuse and agreed without hesitation.
The two strolled around Konoha, then left the village heading toward Tie Zhi Guo.
The ANBU tasked with monitoring Tuan Cang and Lian Ye, upon seeing the two leave the village, immediately returned to report.
In fact, Lian Ye had long noticed the ANBU's surveillance, but he simply pretended not to know.
Because of the distance, the ANBU didn't catch exactly what the two said.
It was clearly something Gangshou had ordered…
Hokage Office.
"Lord Hokage, those two have already left the village."
"Which direction did they go?"
"It should be Tie Zhi Guo."
"Understood, go down."
Gangshou stood by the window with arms crossed, gazing at the rebuilt Konoha outside, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Lady Gangshou, you just came out and need a good rest."
Jingyin, seeing the situation, said worriedly.
She knew Lady Gangshou doubted the two's motives, but instinctively felt those two weren't bad people.
In the end, she still didn't voice her speculation.
"It's fine, I have restraint."
"You continue to have the ANBU monitor their movements."
Lian Ye and Tuan Cang had just left the village when several ANBU members silently followed.
"Sheesh, that Gangshou girl has actually grown."
Lian Ye, noticing the ANBU trailing behind, said with some sentiment.
In his timeline, Gangshou only knows how to date, and pays no mind to anything else.
The other two disciples are the same.
One is obsessed with peeking into women's baths and writing erotic fanfiction, the other spends every day in the laboratory with that old kid Qianshou Feijian.
So Lian Ye hadn't seen the three of them appear together for a long time.
"A bit of wariness is good, but she's still too young," Zhi Cun Tuan Zang commented.
If it were him, they'd never be able to leave Konoha!
The stealthy ANBU: "…"
It seems they've been spotted.
Never mind, keep hiding.
…
A cave somewhere in the Ninja World.
"The Five Kage Summit is being held in Tie Zhi Guo. The Kages of the Five Great Nations and their guards will be present. And your revenge target, Zhi Cun Tuan Zang will attend in the capacity of Acting Hokage."
Uchiha Obito looked at Sasuke Uchiha leaning against the rock wall and spoke in Madara Uchiha's voice.
…
…
ps: Lian Ye is on the front lines battling Uchiha Obito and Sasuke Uchiha; everyone behind the lines is sending some gifts to support, helping the protagonist defeat the inherently evil Uchiha Clan, *ding ding ding*…
