Chapter 537: Summoning Madara for a Confrontation

"I'll ask you again: are you Madara Uchiha?"

Lian Ye pointed a round fan at Uchiha Obito, bluntly questioning him.

"I hope you can answer properly!"

Facing Lian Ye's questioning, Uchiha Obito squinted and did not answer immediately.

Everyone present saw the Mask Man fall silent and understood that this guy was definitely not Madara Uchiha.

He was merely using Madara's name as a pretense to act mysterious.

"Hmph, I knew he wasn't Madara Uchiha!" Da Ye Mu snorted.

Aside from Lian Ye and Zhi Cun Tuan Zang, he was the one who doubted the Mask Man was Madara the most.

Someone as proud and powerful as Madara Uchiha, if he truly hadn't died, would have already used his great power to complete the Moon's Eye project.

As for Obito's claim of being gravely injured and losing his power, that's pure nonsense!

The people who had been misled originally, seeing the Mask Man at a loss for words, began to realize they'd been deceived.

"Who exactly are you, and why are you impersonating Madara Uchiha!"

Facing the doubts of everyone present, Uchiha Obito remained silent.

His gaze fell on Lian Ye, his face under the mask turning a steely blue.

Where on earth did this guy come from?! Why does he have a hidden round fan on him!

"I am Madara Uchiha; there's no need to prove anything to you."

After a moment of silence, Uchiha Obito suppressed his confusion and anger, and his voice returned to calm.

In truth, his identity didn't matter; as long as the plan could be carried out, that was enough.

"Heh, looks like you no longer shed tears at the sight of a coffin."

In front of everyone, Lian Ye once again took a piece of flesh from his Ninja Tool Bag.

"Lian Ye, you aren't thinking..."

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang watched the flesh in Lian Ye's hand, his expression growing increasingly strange.

"Hehe, exactly as you thought."

Lian Ye said this, and at that moment, Shisui appeared before a Bai Jue that had been watching from a corner, pulling its body straight out of the ground.

Everyone present couldn't understand what Lian Ye intended to do.

"Since you claim to be Madara Uchiha, I'll summon the real Madara Uchiha to confront you!"

Uchiha Obito's pupils suddenly contracted, while the others wore expressions of seeing a ghost.

What is this guy talking about!

He wants to summon the real Madara Uchiha for a showdown—did he not wake up, or did they not wake up?!

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang showed an expression that said, "Just as I thought."

When Lian Ye produced that piece of flesh, he guessed that his good brother was about to launch a big move.

One can only say Lian Ye still enjoys the spectacle and doesn't mind the trouble...

"Tuan Cang, which Lord Ban did I summon?"

Lian Ye suddenly realized a problem and instinctively asked his good brother.

This flesh is the blood and flesh of the Lord Ban from that timeline, but they are in the original story's timeline, where Madara is also dead.

So which Madara Uchiha does the Impure Earth Reincarnation actually bring forth?

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "..."

To be honest, the question really stumped him.

Also, haven't you not fully mastered the Impure World Reincarnation technique?

When you release Madara Uchiha then, will there truly be no problems?

Forget it, who made him Lian Ye.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang ultimately didn't stop Lian Ye, saying, "I don't know, you try it."

"Alright, we'll know the answer right away."

Lian Ye stopped the chatter, formed a seal, and used Impure Earth Reincarnation.

In the shocked gazes of the crowd, Madara Uchiha appeared in the body of Impure Earth Reincarnation!

"U... Madara Uchiha..."

Da Ye Mu's face showed shock, fear flickering in his eyes, as if recalling the scenes of being ruled by Madara.

"Finally revived, looks like Zhang Men the kid has grown up."

Madara Uchiha opened his eyes, felt something off about his body, and froze when he looked down.

"Isn't this supposed to be Reincarnation Born?"

"Seems this isn't the Lord Ban I know; it's the Madara Uchiha of this timeline," Lian Ye whispered to his good brother.

He turned his head just then and saw Tuan Cang already far away from him.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang knew Lian Ye's Impure Earth Reincarnation was only half‑baked, able to summon the dead from the underworld but unable to control them like Teacher Feijian could.

In other words, Madara Uchiha is not under Lian Ye's control...

For his own safety, he should keep his distance from Lian Ye.

Lian Ye: "..."

It can't be that bad, shouldn't good brothers share hardships together?

"Kid, you summoned me?"

Madara Uchiha looked at Lian Ye before him; his current state should be the Impure Earth Reincarnation studied by Teacher Feijian.

"Exactly, that guy claimed to be Madara Uchiha, so I summoned him for a showdown."

Lian Ye pointed at Uchiha Obito on the high platform, explaining the cause and effect.

Madara Uchiha: "……"

He thought this kid summoned him for something, but didn't expect it was to make him face Obito!

Is this guy just bored out of his mind!

"Kid, are you bored?"

Madara Uchiha coldly looked at Lian Ye, showing no concealment of the murderous intent in his heart.

Since he happened to be revived by Impure Earth Reincarnation, he could now pursue the "Moon's Eye" plan himself.

Who made Obito and Zhang Men so useless?

All these years have passed, and yet he hasn't been revived!

"Madara, my Impure Earth Reincarnation isn't fully mastered, and this is the most primitive version."

Facing Madara's threat, Lian Ye grinned.

The current Impure Earth Madara is not the body that Medic Dōu refined during the Fourth Ninja World War; it's already impressive if he can wield even one‑tenth of his pre‑birth combat power.

Madara Uchiha felt his frail body and finally understood why this kid was so fearless.

In his current state, he could never carry out the "Moon's Eye" plan.

"Bored."

Madara Uchiha crossed his arms and closed his eyes again.

Since the Impure Earth body doesn't work, there's no need to fight.

He, who has spent his whole life as an Uchiha warrior, has only ever been beaten by Hashirama in this lifetime, and refuses to lose to a little brat again.

Lian Ye, seeing that Madara Uchiha had no intention to fight, said to Uchiha Obito on the high platform.

"Now, do you dare to call yourself Madara Uchiha?"

Uchiha Obito: "……"

He had considered that someone might question his identity, but never imagined anyone would summon Madara as evidence.

He knows the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but doesn't understand where Lian Ye obtained Madara's flesh and blood.

He should recall that he hid Madara's corpse back then.

This guy not only has a fan, but also Madara's flesh; his whole being exudes strangeness!

Uchiha Obito met Lian Ye's questioning gaze, spread his hands, and said helplessly.

"Some matters don't need to be taken so seriously; who I truly am isn't important…"

He suddenly leapt down from the platform, his eyes scanning everyone present.

"You only need to know that my plan is about to succeed!"

Saying that, he had no intention to linger and vanished from the spot in an instant.

Some of the lies were exposed, and he could only slink away, looking dejected.

"How truly ugly, Obito."

Madara Uchiha whispered in a voice only he could hear.
