Facing the enemy before him, Ōnoki felt something almost absurd.
He felt that this man resembled Madara Uchiha even more than Qingyu did.
Seriously, did Madara Uchiha come in bulk now?
At that moment, Ōnoki had no idea that the "Iwagakure ninja" before him was Madara Uchiha in disguise.
He only felt that everything happening today was making him increasingly unhappy.
He thought back to that episode from his past.
Just then, Madara Uchiha's other Wood Clones arrived.
"Heh. Have you forgotten me?"
Madara Uchiha sneered.
"One night many years ago, you and Mū trembled before me."
Madara Uchiha spoke calmly.
He did not mind revealing that he was alive.
Besides, he needed others to believe he had not died.
That way, Obito could later inherit his identity and move through the world under his name.
When the time was ripe, he would return to take command.
Ōnoki's heart jolted at Madara Uchiha's words.
After returning home, neither he nor his teacher had told anyone about that humiliating experience.
Or had Madara Uchiha told his clansmen about it?
No, Madara Uchiha wasn't that idle.
After all, in Madara Uchiha's eyes, the two of them had not even qualified as enemies.
Would an adult brag everywhere about his strength after beating a child?
Could this man be an impostor?!
Ōnoki wanted to attack, but remembering Madara Uchiha's terrifying power made him hesitate.
"Impossible!"
"You should be dead!"
Even the normally composed Ōnoki struggled to keep his cool upon learning that Madara Uchiha was still alive.
First, didn't you say you killed Madara Uchiha?!
You're going to get people killed!
Had he known Madara Uchiha was alive, Ōnoki would not have attacked Konoha so soon.
He would have kept waiting until Madara Uchiha died of old age.
Ōnoki calculated Madara Uchiha's age
