Encounter, Madara

A dark, windy night was perfect for murder and arson.

Oh, no, it was perfect for tracking assassins.

That day, after Yunqing finished handling government affairs and was just about to relax, he sensed an evil Chakra presence appear around him before swiftly vanishing.

This greatly annoyed Yunqing.

Damn it, I'm the mighty Kazekage. Who the hell are you? You showed your face and ran off? That's seriously disrespectful.

Without a second thought, Yunqing quickly gave chase.

At dusk, a solitary white-haired figure stood atop a sand dune, proud, domineering, flashy, and cool.

The moment Yunqing saw that figure, his heartbeat quickened.

When would I ever get to look that cool?

The proud white-haired figure turned around. In his exposed eye, three tiny tomoe spun endlessly.

"You're here?"

"Yes, I'm here."

Hearing the old man's domineering words, Yunqing answered instinctively.

Madara did not know how to continue after hearing Yunqing's reply. Shouldn't you be asking who I am, so I could say that I was Madara Uchiha, the Ninja Asura?

Young man, you picked up the wrong script.

Time quietly passed, and Yin-Yang Face Black and White Zetsu emerged not far behind Madara.

"Tsk, tsk, Black Zetsu, I think he has bad intentions toward you."

White Zetsu, one half of Yin-Yang Face Black and White Zetsu, looked at Yunqing, who stood alone opposite Madara, and teased his other half.

Black Zetsu sucked in a cold breath and did not answer.

His instincts told him to run. The red-haired brat across from him had bad intentions toward him.

"Shut up and watch quietly."

Sensing that White Zetsu was about to speak again, Black Zetsu roared at him.

He was afraid that chatty White Zetsu would blurt out something he should not.

The person opposite them looked young, but in truth, he was an old schemer.

Yunqing looked playfully at the white-haired Madara Uchiha opposite him and Yin-Yang Face Black and White Zetsu not far behind Madara.

Not long ago, he had been wondering how to scheme against these two talented tree planters. One possessed a vast number of tree seeds, while the other could directly plant trees and create forests.

And today, the two of them had come knocking.

I really am a European Emperor.

For some reason, that sentence flashed through Yunqing's mind.

"Senior, may I ask why you lured this junior out here? Is there something you need to tell me?"

Though his mind was full of bizarre thoughts, Yunqing suppressed them and pretended to be a rookie Kazekage as he asked timidly.

"Hmph."

Madara Uchiha snorted. "I am Madara Uchiha, a man who will bring peace to the ninja world."

Yunqing was dumbfounded. Boss, you were being way too direct. How was he supposed to respond?

Looking at Madara Uchiha, who remained domineering, flashy, and cool despite his old age and unchanged body, Yunqing swallowed hard. Madara's words had truly stunned him.

"I believe you're Madara Uchiha, but could you tell me how you intend to bring peace to the ninja world?

"So I can prepare myself mentally—whether to join you or destroy you."

Yunqing was not afraid of him. Since Madara was being so direct, then Yunqing would speak plainly too.

"Infinite Tsukuyomi. My Uchiha Clan inherited the legacy of the Sage of Six Paths. My ancestors...?"

As he spoke of Infinite Tsukuyomi, Madara Uchiha raised both hands and began explaining with fanatical eyes.

Before he could finish, though, Yunqing impatiently waved him off. "What nonsense is this? The Uchiha Clan inherited the Sage of Six Paths? The Senju Clan says the same thing, and the Uzumaki Clan is also publicly acknowledged to be descended from him. The Senju Clan and Uzumaki Clan are even distant relatives. How do you Uchiha Clan prove it?

"And that stone tablet's records—who knows whether they're real or fake?

"I refuse to believe that, over several hundred years, not a single one of your Uchiha ancestors awakened the Mangekyo and saw it.

"Then why did no one achieve Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

Yunqing's torrent of words left Madara Uchiha dumbstruck.

Seeing the bewildered Madara Uchiha, Yunqing was a little dumbfounded himself. Had he actually hit the mark?

He had wanted to say those things for a long time.

Back when he watched Naruto, he had wanted to ask this: the Uchiha Clan had inherited the Sage of Six Paths' legacy, so over hundreds or thousands of years, was there not a single Mangekyo user? Not a single person who researched the Eternal Mangekyo? Not a single person who looked at that damned stone tablet?

So now that he had the chance, Yunqing relied on his strength and let it all out in one tirade.

Madara was first enraged, then calm, and finally his eyes wavered. He truly had never considered those questions.

Watching Madara Uchiha gradually quiet down, Black Zetsu felt a bad premonition. What was wrong with Madara? Why was he so calm?

"Hmph, brat, don't try to win with clever words. Just tell me: will you help me or not?

"If you help me, this pair of Rinnegan can be entrusted to your care."

Madara Uchiha forcibly suppressed the doubts in his heart and demanded an answer.

"Tsk, tsk. The Madara Uchiha I know wouldn't waste so many words.

"And why should I help you? Just because you said you're Madara Uchiha? You think awfully highly of yourself.

"I'm the Kazekage of Sunagakure, one of the most respected people in this world."

Looking at Old Madara opposite him, Yunqing mocked him.

Madara truly deserved to be a boss among bosses. His composure was excellent. Faced with a junior's mockery, he did not curse back. Instead, he directly hurled a Great Fire Annihilation at Yunqing, followed by Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence.

Seeing gigantic trees rising from the Desert, Yunqing's eyes flashed with excitement.

Purple Chakra surged around him as he hurriedly extinguished the flames.

These were precious trees. If they burned up, wouldn't I have angered you for nothing?

His speed reached its limit as he punched Madara Uchiha deep into the Desert.

He absolutely could not damage the precious Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence.

That was Yunqing's only thought.

"So fast."

After Yunqing launched his attack, that was Madara's only feeling.

If not for the Rinnegan, he truly would not have been able to catch Yunqing's movements.

Catching the movements but being unable to dodge was his first impression. He instantly activated Susanoo.

Looking at the Susanoo outside, shattered into chunks, Madara's expression darkened.

Not only was he fast, his strength was formidable as well.

"It's really tough."

Looking at the Chakra drifting off his fist, Yunqing remarked.

"Being able to shatter Susanoo is enough for you to be proud.

"You arrogant brat."

Madara summoned the complete form of Susanoo and looked down at Yunqing. The disdain in his eyes needed no words.

"Tsk, tsk, Boss Madara, it's merely a Chakra manifestation. What is there to be proud of?"

Yunqing looked disdainfully at Madara within Susanoo as purple Chakra erupted wildly from his body.

Within a few breaths, an enormous Purple Chakra Angel appeared before Susanoo.

Madara controlled Susanoo and drew its giant sword, while Yunqing manifested a Chakra sword as well.

There were no slogans and no warnings. The two of them simply collided violently.

Luckily, they were deep within the Desert. Had they been anywhere else, moving mountains and filling seas would have been merely the most basic display of their fighting style.

Even now, Madara Uchiha's occasional Wood Release ninjutsu filled Yunqing with excitement.

After seeing Madara use Wood Release, Yunqing lowered the intensity of his attacks.

For the future of the Land of Wind and Sunagakure, he endured it.
