Chapter 655: Wake Me Up After the Food Is Ready

"Uncle Lianye, where is Uncle Sasuke?"

Boruto saw Lian Ye return alone, and a look of worry appeared on his face.

Could it be... Uncle Sasuke met with misfortune?

Thinking that, he instinctively clenched his fist, and a trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes.

Damn, that bastard Otsutsuki Pu Shi!

I must definitely avenge Uncle Sasuke!

Lian Ye heard that and only then remembered that Er Zhu Zi was still outside looking for Pu Shi's trail.

Shoot, I forgot to tell him.

That guy should be back soon, right?

At this moment, Sasuke Uchiha, after careful searching during this period, had confirmed that Pu Shi was hiding within the borders of Wind Country.

"Pu Shi, I will find you very soon."

He said confidently, as if he could already picture himself beating Pu Shi.

Saying that, he sped up and headed toward Wind Country.

Little did he know, Pu Shi had already been killed by Lian Ye.

A Fei, who was following in secret, said: "Is this guy's brain not very good?"

Lord Lian Ye had already taken care of Otsutsuki Pu Shi, yet Sasuke Uchiha was still foolishly searching for Pu Shi's trail...

Heijue shouldn't have deceived Uchiha Reifeng; he could have deceived Sasuke Uchiha instead.

With his level of intelligence, he would definitely be easy to trick.

In A Fei's view, Sasuke isn't smart; he just doesn't show it because he's quiet.

If he were a chatterbox, others would surely notice his intelligence issues.

"Stupid guy..."

A Fei shook his head helplessly, then spotted someone even dumber than himself.

Konoha Village, Laboratory.

Orochimaru looked at Pu Shi's corpse before him, his eyes shining with excitement, and greedily stroked Pu Shi's body lightly.

This is an alien's corpse!

It's perfect for research.

The only pity is that the corpse's head was cut off, making it less than perfect.

I don't know why Lian Ye Teacher is so obsessed with beheading.

Never mind, having some research is already good.

Lian Ye shivered at the sight.

The scientific maniac is truly terrifying.

Orochimaru's demeanor was just like that of a perverted uncle peeking at little girls.

Nevertheless, one can see that Pu Shi's corpse has great research value.

"Thank you for the test specimen sent by Lian Ye Teacher."

Orochimaru suppressed his excitement and tried to calm himself.

"You're welcome, study it well." Lian Ye patted his shoulder, "If there are similar test specimens in the future, I'll send them to you as well."

That kid Qianshou Feijian no longer obsessively researches, so Konoha Village's future technological development now relies on Orochimaru.

Orochimaru nodded, his gaze returning to Pu Shi's body, and he licked his lips excitedly.

Seeing that Lian Ye did not disturb him, he turned and left the Laboratory.

Tuan Cang's mansion.

"Lian Ye, did you kill Pu Shi?"

Tuan Cang was not surprised by Lian Ye's killing of Otsutsuki Pu Shi, but was curious why Sasuke Uchiha hadn't returned.

Logically, with Pu Shi gone, Sasuke had no reason to stay outside.

Unless this guy never told him about killing Pu Shi!

Given his understanding of his good brother, it's truly possible he would do such a thing...

"Killed him, really exhausted me to death."

Lian Ye lay on the lounge chair and stretched lazily.

"You don't know... I waited three days in the desert before Otsutsuki Pu Shi finally appeared..."

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang watched his muttering, smiled, and said nothing.

This guy really has gotten used to being lazy.

"By the way, why didn't we see the uncle and the others?"

Lian Ye returned home and didn't see Qianshou Feijian and the others, so he looked curiously toward his good brother.

One person missing is one thing, but four disappearing at once is rather odd...

"Ban wanted to take Quan Nai on a trip, First Elder found out, and then dragged Teacher Feijian along."

Tuan Cang thought for a moment, then said slowly.

"What the heck?" Lian Ye sat up from the chair, saying in disbelief, "You say they went on a trip without me?!"

He had only been away for a few days, and they secretly ran off to have fun.

That's really too much!

"It's not exactly without you; they wanted to call you to come along, but you weren't in the village the past few days..."

Tuan Cang, thinking of the scene where Quan Nai came to ask about Lian Ye's whereabouts, explained.

Lian Ye: "..."

Forget it, there will be plenty of chances later.

"Tuan Tuan, I'm hungry."

"You guy, don't call me Tuan Tuan!" Tuan Cang's forehead veins bulged, and his hair bristled instantly.

Ever since he time‑traveled and met Gangshou, Lian Ye gave himself this embarrassing name, and this guy keeps calling himself that from time to time!

"Got it, Tuan Tuan." Lian Ye yawned, "I'll sleep for a while first; wake me up when the food is ready."

He hasn't closed his eyes for three days in the desert, so he really needs a good sleep.

Saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Tuan Cang: "..."

How can someone fall asleep just by closing their eyes?

This guy's falling‑asleep speed is ridiculously fast!

Forget it, he must have spent some effort defeating Pu Shi.

A short rest won't hurt.

Thinking that, he turned and entered the kitchen to start cooking.

On the other side.

"Hey, Feijian!" Yuzhibo Quannai said irritably, "Why do you keep lingering around like a ghost, you guy!"

My brother finally managed to suggest taking me out on a trip, but the innately evil Feijian also came along.

Wherever he goes, there's a white‑haired person following him, which makes him very annoyed!

"Hmph, I also think you're a lingering ghost." Feijian said coldly.

"Bastard!"

Madara and Hashirama walked at the front, and they were already accustomed to the younger brothers' quarrels.

They even reached the point of ignoring the fighting sounds.

"Madara, shall we stay in a cave for two days?"

Hashirama reminisced about the days once spent in the cave, when they were carefree.

Every day they could stay with their close friend.

Although now it's similar, it doesn't have the feeling of their youth.

"Fine."

Madara did not refuse.

In his view, it doesn't matter where they live.

Regarding clothing, food, shelter, and travel, he's not as demanding as Lian Ye.

That kid only knows how to enjoy life; he's completely wasted away.

"I wonder if Lian Ye has returned?"

Hashirama sighed softly.

He originally wanted to bring Lian Ye along, so they'd have food on the road.

Unfortunately, they learned from Tuan Cang that Lian Ye left the Village to search for Otsutsuki Pu Shi's whereabouts.

Feijian knew, but he didn't want to tell, deliberately making Quan Nai run in vain…

Who makes this guy keep clinging to me?

A few days later, Sasuke returned to the Village, dusty and weary.

He didn't find Otsutsuki Pu Shi; the other party seemed to have vanished suddenly.

The battle traces Lian Ye had with Pu Shi were already completely buried by the sandstorm.

"Uncle Sasuke, you're finally back!"

Bo Ren watched the returning Sasuke, extremely excited.

"Bo Ren, I didn't find Pu Shi..."

He left full of confidence, and returned with a dusty face.

"I know, Pu Shi was already killed by Uncle Lian Ye."

Sasuke: "???"
