A bristled at Qingyun's words. Although he had lost to Qingyun this time, he believed that if he went back and trained hard, he would surely surpass him.
"Hmph, we'll see about that. Five years from now, once I've beaten your little brother, I'll challenge you again!"
Qingyun smiled calmly at A's words. A might be able to defeat Minato Namikaze as he was now. After all, Minato had only mastered the first stage of Flying Thunder God, and Qingyun had already witnessed A's speed in Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
