People May Be Fake, but Love Is Real

Number Four silently clenched the Son Gokū Full Cache in his palm. His face remained utterly expressionless as he looked at Tsunade as though she were a stranger.

"You have the wrong person."

Tsunade glanced at the Nine-Tailed Knight approaching through the air behind her and, terrified, tried to hide behind Number Four. She did not listen to his explanation at all.

With Grandfather's face, how could he possibly not be Grandfather?

"Senju Kid, stay away from that dangerous fellow!"

He might not have recognized the mini version of Tsunade before, but he recognized this adult original at a glance. Seeing his best friend's beloved eldest granddaughter mistake an enemy for her grandfather, Uchiha Madara hurriedly called out a warning in anger.

"Huh?"

Tsunade poked her head out from behind Number Four and finally noticed the magenta figure standing in the distance. Her expression stiffened instantly, her large blinking eyes filled with confusion.

"Are you... Grandpa Madara?"

The news of Uchiha Madara becoming DiQi-bro was practically common knowledge. With such a distinctive appearance, no one could mistake him.

Did Uchiha Madara know Tsunade?

They were more than familiar.

Before Hashirama Senju disappeared, Uchiha Madara often dealt with Tsunade, whom Hashirama treasured like the apple of his eye, whenever he visited his best friend's home.

Sometimes, just to keep little Tsunade from being afraid of him, he would even deliberately bring her tasty candy as a bribe.

"What exactly is going on?"

Tsunade was completely dumbfounded. Why was Uchiha Madara fighting Grandfather?

Hadn't they shared bodily fluids and forged a life-and-death bond?

"Tap!"

The Nine-Tailed Knight, who had chased Tsunade all the way here, landed in the field. The situation on the battlefield instantly became bizarre, and Tsunade, who had just poked her head out, immediately shrank back again.

"Target located."
