At that moment, Uchiha Madara suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said to Belaque, "If he could eat all the fish and shrimp in the river, why couldn't he eat people?"
"Eat people!?" Belaque seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter as well.
"Let's go back, quickly!" Belaque said to the Blue-Feathered Griffin.
At Belaque's words, the Blue-Feathered Griffin made a sharp turn in midair and flew back the way they had come.
"Are you worried that the little boy ate his own father?" Uchiha Madara asked Belaque. "I don't think that's very likely. After all, the little boy is still rational right now."
"I am worried about that. The little boy himself doesn't remember eating the fish and shrimp in Mirror Lake. Doesn't that mean that, during a certain period of time, he wasn't in control of himself and had no memory of anything he did?" Belaque said.
"That might still be the best-case scenario. I have an even worse suspicion now," Uchiha Madara said.
"What are you trying to say?" Belaque asked.
"What I mean is, what if the little boy lied to us about everything? What if he actually remembers it all?" Uchiha Madara said.
"Why do all the bad things have to happen to the two of us? There may not be many people going to Winterfort, but there are still people coming and going," Belaque said.
"But we just had to run into all of this. Which one of us has worse luck?" Belaque looked at Uchiha Madara and said, "My luck is usually very good. Look, I've never been caught all these years."
"Don't tell me you think being with me has dragged down your luck. My luck is actually quite good. It only gets this bad when I'm with you," Uchiha Madara
