Chapter 596: Crossing Again

"No, Lord Ban!"

Lian Ye, seeing the situation, hurriedly grabbed the hand of Madara Uchiha that was about to form a seal.

On the road we ran into a clueless Bounty Hunter; if we lift the Impure Earth Reincarnation, where on the desolate mountains and valleys will we find new sacrifices?

"Let go of me," Madara Uchiha squinted, his gaze turning unfriendly.

Since that kid killed him back then, he's become increasingly reckless.

He still hasn't asked Lian Ye to beat up the trouble caused by his younger self.

Yet this kid voluntarily came up to provoke him…

Although his body is now the Impure Earth form and his combat power is far weaker than in life, it is still enough to exchange a few moves with this kid.

Lian Ye, hearing that, immediately let go, saying awkwardly,

"Lord Ban, please listen to my explanation first…"

"Don't you want to realize the 'Moon's Eye' plan? Since neither of us can persuade the other, let's go to the future together and see whether the so‑called 'Moon's Eye' plan is really as you say."

Madara Uchiha's eyes flickered; he was clearly interested in what Lian Ye said, yet his expression did not change at all.

If we could travel to the future and see a scene of Ninja World Peace in advance, that would also be a good choice.

As long as this kid sees it with his own eyes, he won't block me then.

Perhaps Lian Ye would even help him achieve the plan.

And Lian Ye thought the same.

As long as Ban Daye learns that the 'Moon's Eye' plan is merely Heijue's scheme to rescue his mother.

He will surely abandon this unrealistic plan.

Then he can honestly lift the Impure Earth Reincarnation and stop fantasizing about unrealistic Ninja World Peace.

That way, he won't have to worry about Madara Uchiha making a comeback.

Without Ban Daye's help, Heijue can hardly hope to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki!

Heheh, I'm literally a genius!

Heijue, who had been following in secret, could hardly contain the excitement in its heart.

"Chu Zi is literally a genius!"

If it follows Chu Zi through the dragon vein to traverse time, it can find the mother it will rescue in the future.

Then it will ask the future mother to return to the present and save the mother sealed in the current timeline.

If it realizes this earlier, there would be no issue with Madara Uchiha.

Mother has long been lying in the courtyard sunbathing; at mealtime she can enjoy the various dishes Chu Zi prepares.

Spending time with the beloved mother is the true wonderful life!

Infinite Moon Reading is no more than that, right?

As for A Fei, he is now impatient to see his counterpart in another timeline.

Heijue spends the whole day with a drooping face, unwilling to talk to itself.

On top of that, with Lord Ban and Lord Lian Ye not around, it is almost bored to death alone.

"Lord Ban, what do you think of my idea?"

Facing the perfect plan Lian Ye proposed, Madara Uchiha naturally has no reason to refuse.

Feigning a moment of thought, he slowly nodded and said in a deep voice,

"I think your idea is good; I can go with you to the future."

This kid sees his future self realize the 'Moon's Eye' plan, making the decayed Ninja World finally achieve true peace.

At that time, he will realize how foolish it was to stop his own plan.

"Let's set off right now!" Lian Ye beamed.

Madara Uchiha sees his future self as merely a pawn for Heijue's mother resurrection; then he will realize how foolish his scheming over the years has been.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang watched Lian Ye's happy demeanor, a slight smile curling his mouth.

Good brothers find it meaningful, so he joins along.

Anyway, as long as he can be with Lian Ye, whether sunbathing in the Village or traveling to other timelines makes no difference.

What matters is not the events, but the people…

"Hurry up, I'm already eager to see mother!"

Heijue, seeing the three set off, immediately called A Fei to follow.

Although the mother it is about to meet is not from this timeline, mothers from other timelines are still its mother.

At this moment, Heijue is just a child desperate to see its mother.

Along the way, each person harbored their own thoughts.

Only A Fei wore a completely bewildered expression.

Why does everyone think the future 'Moon's Eye' plan is bound to succeed?

Clearly, the future hasn't happened yet…

Take this timeline as an example: Lord Ban has already been killed by Lord Lian Ye.

Whether the 'Moon's Eye' plan can be realized later remains uncertain.

But on what basis does everyone think the 'Moon's Eye' plan will definitely be realized later?

Even Lian Ye, who opposes Lord Ban, thinks the same.

Strange, it's really too strange.

A few days later, the Kingdom of Loulan.

"Why are you back again?!"

The Loulan Queen looked speechlessly at Lian Ye and Tuan Cang before the hall, and at the man behind them who looked extremely unapproachable.

Three years later, they returned here, perhaps again hoping to use the dragon vein's power to traverse time and space.

One must know that the dragon vein's power is extremely dangerous; a slight mistake can cause massive casualties.

As a result, these people seemed to have completely ignored the terror of the dragon vein…

"Your Majesty, we have come to ask for your help," Zhi Cun Tuan Zang said.

Loulan Queen: "……"

Just as she had guessed, nothing good comes when a few people come here.

Never mind, after all Loulan is under Konoha's protection.

Since the incumbent Hokage has spoken, she surely has no reason to refuse.

With their combined strength, they shouldn't encounter danger.

After all, they already have experience with traversing.

"All of you, please follow me."

The Loulan Queen led the three to the top floor, and after reminding them once more, she lifted the seal on the dragon vein.

Just like last time, the raging dragon vein energy opened a spatial barrier.

Anyone who steps inside can traverse time and space.

Madara Uchiha watched the luminous sphere before him with interest; was it through this that Lian Ye traveled to the Warring States Period?

That's intriguing…

I truly look forward to the scene where I achieve Ninja World Peace in the future!

The three, without any hesitation, stepped straight inside.

Seeing this, the Loulan Queen immediately prepared to reseal the dragon vein, lest the raging energy run rampant.

Only she failed to notice that two silhouettes, one white and one black, also entered.

"Mother, I'm here!"

The Loulan Queen, who had just sealed the dragon vein, seemed to have heard someone speaking.

But looking around, she found no speaker.

She shook her head; it seemed she hadn't rested well lately, causing an auditory hallucination.

The time and space traversed via the dragon vein are completely random.

In fact, Lian Ye didn't know which era he would end up in, but by using the dragon vein repeatedly one could reach the Fourth Ninja World War.

It's nothing more than a matter of time.

"Where is this?"

Madara Uchiha looked around, slightly furrowing his brow as he said.

He had just learned that dragon vein traversal is entirely random, and was eager to know which time and space he belonged to.

He also wondered whether his self in this time had realized the Moon's Eye project.

"Lord Ban, don't be hasty; I'll find someone to inquire right away."

At that moment, a burst of Explosive Talisman detonations echoed from afar.

The three, simultaneously, turned to look toward the source of the explosion.
