Chapter 699: The Second Hokage Isn't a Good Person!

"Lian Ye... kun?!"

Uchiha Inaho and Uchiha Meidu heard the words, their faces full of astonishment as they looked toward Uchiha Lianye.

They didn't understand when Lian Ye had come to know such a strong person.

And it seemed the two's relationship was good.

Regarding the doubts in their hearts, the parties themselves also didn't understand.

Uchiha Lianye stared blankly at the smiling Uchiha Quannai, completely dumbfounded.

How could he not remember knowing such a strong person?!

As an orphan, he had few friends in his clan since childhood, let alone the possibility of knowing such a strong person.

"Senior, have you mistaken me for someone else?"

After a moment of hesitation, he said softly.

"I don't know you..."

Uchiha Quannai's smile remained, "You indeed don't know me, but me knowing you is enough."

Uchiha trio: "???"

They completely didn't understand the meaning of the Uchiha strong person before them.

What does it mean, "you don't know me, but me knowing you is enough"?

Uchiha Meidu glanced at Quan Nai then at Lian Ye, and suddenly covered his mouth.

It can't be as she imagined!

Seeing that both looked quite good, actually it wouldn't matter even if it were true...

"Let's talk."

Uchiha Quannai had no airs; he was eager to learn what had happened to Lian Ye.

Uchiha Lianye naturally didn't dare refuse.

Whatever Quan Nai asked, he answered truthfully.

Qianshou Feijian remained hidden in the shadows, listening attentively to their conversation, with no intention of appearing.

This kid wasn't the one he knew.

He had no intention of getting to know them; after all, they weren't from the same world.

Soon, Uchiha Quannai understood Lian Ye's situation.

Unlike his own time and space, Lian Ye grew up in the Uchiha Orphanage and was never adopted by Qianshou Feijian.

After the war broke out, he went to the Battlefield.

Had it not been for this chance encounter, the three would definitely have perished here!

No wonder they never saw Lian Yejun's figure when they traveled to the future timeline.

It turned out he had already died on the battlefield long ago.

Strangely, why did the experiences of Lian Yejun in their timeline differ from those here…

Looks like it's time to ask Qianshou Feijian.

That guy's intelligence is quite high; he should know the reason.

Little did they know, that someone also didn't understand the principle.

"Senior, thank you for saving us!"

Uchiha Lianye said gratefully.

Without the strong person before them, they would have been killed long ago.

Although the other side asked all sorts of strange questions, it couldn't change the fact that they were rescued.

Uchiha Inaho and Uchiha Meidu also expressed thanks.

"A trivial effort, no need for courtesy."

Uchiha Quannai waved his hand casually.

Even if he met other clan members today, he would strike down Cloud Hidden ninjas.

Or rather, as long as they're Konoha Village ninjas, they won't be in mortal danger.

Even if he didn't act, someone would inevitably act.

"Senior, will you return to the camp with us?"

Uchiha Inaho asked cautiously.

They were all heavily wounded; returning alone was risky.

If the strong person before them could accompany, their lives would be secured!

Of course, he was only asking...

If the other refused, he wouldn't dare force it.

Uchiha Quannai originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Lian Ye's pale complexion, he never voiced the refusal.

Even if it wasn't the Lian Yejun he knew, he still didn't want to see the other in danger.

In that case, he and Lian Yejun share the same face!

"Alright."

The three, seeing Quannai agree, all showed delighted expressions.

With such a strong person accompanying them, they needn't worry about another ambush!

Quan Nai escorted the three back, and they chatted here and there.

Qianshou Feijian silently followed behind, listening attentively to their talk.

Naturally evil Quan Nai, why get so close to a kid who isn't that boy!

"Lian Yejun, what do you think of the Second Hokage?"

Yuzhibo Quannai, knowing someone was following behind, deliberately asked that question.

Uchiha Lianye's face showed surprise; he didn't understand why the senior was asking him such a question.

"I think the Second Hokage…"

He was just about to praise Qianshou Feijian's political tactics when Uchiha Ricefire lightly jabbed him with an arm.

Following Ricefire's gaze, he saw the senior still wearing a smile.

But the smile on Quannai's face was completely different from before, seeming to carry a warning.

Uchiha Lianye instantly understood that the senior before him was at odds with the Second Hokage!

"The Second Hokage isn't a good person!"

He could only turn his words, beginning to attack the Second Hokage.

Upon hearing that, Yuzhibo Quannai's smile grew wider, patting Lian Ye's shoulder with a gentle voice.

"Ha ha, my thoughts align with Lian Yejun's."

Qianshou Feijian, hidden in the darkness, wore a black line on his face.

He originally wanted to hear Lian Ye praise himself, but what he got was all slander!

The innately evil Yuzhibo Quannai is really over the line!

No need to think; that kid was threatened.

But soon, as if sensing something, a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"I hope you can still smile later…"

Konoha frontline camp, Commander's Tent.

Second Hokage Qianshou Feijian stared at the sand table, sinking into thought.

Since his older brother's death, other nations, upon learning the news, have been eager to launch war.

As the Second Hokage, he could only go to the Battlefield to command.

In any case, they must not let other villages succeed!

Thus the Battlefield must be won; no one may lay claim to the Fire Country!

At that moment, he suddenly sensed a faint familiar chakra aura.

Qianshou Feijian's pupils abruptly contracted, and he instinctively looked toward a certain direction.

"Impossible…"

He actually sensed Yuzhibo Quannai's chakra!

What a joke!

That guy was killed by him over a decade ago.

An illusion, it must be an illusion!

Although he thought it was an illusion, he still left the tent, standing at the doorway like a statue, gazing toward that direction.

What if it's real?

As an arch‑enemy, how could he possibly misperceive the opponent's chakra aura?

It was merely a moment of inability to accept Yuzhibo Quannai's resurrection.

Compared to Quannai being alive, he would rather believe Madara Uchiha hasn't died!

Konoha Village, atop Hokage Rock.

"Hashirama, is this the peace you've been pursuing all along?"

Madara Uchiha raised his hand to catch a flying leaf, and softly murmured while gazing at the whole of Konoha Village.

"How regrettable, it failed."

"The facts prove your ideal is wrong; only I can bring true peace to the Ninja World!"

He then tossed the leaf onto the ground, his voice cold as he said.

"Just wait for the day I fulfill my ideal!"

As the words fell, his figure vanished from Hokage Rock, as if he had never been there.
