Promise me you won't go swimming when you're old, okay?

"Grandpa, what are you laughing at? Huh, this young lady is so pretty! What's your name, miss?" Dave bit his finger with an innocent look as he spoke to Reto, the First Kazekage. When he spotted a beautiful purple-haired woman behind Reto, he couldn't help asking her name.

"Grand... grandpa?? Brat! I'm only thirty-five this year!!" Reto froze, then roared, veins bulging on his forehead.

Honestly, Reto looked much younger than the other Kage, but his sour face, which bore a certain resemblance to Fugaku's, made him look a little old.

"Come on, Reto, don't take it personally. He's just a kid. You know how children are—they say whatever comes to mind. Don't overthink it." Ishikawa laughed at the sight, throwing Reto's earlier words right back at him.

Reto's face instantly darkened...

"Hehehe, little fellow, you're quite mischievous. My name is Chiyo." The purple-haired woman giggled and gave a name that left Dave petrified...

"Chi... Chi... Chi... Chi... Chiyo???" Dave turned to stone on the spot. Fuck, this purple-haired babe in front of me is Chiyo? The future Granny Chiyo???

A moment later...

"Um... Big Sister Chiyo... promise me... you won't go swimming when you're old, okay...?" Dave forced down his shock and swallowed. Looking at Chiyo's exquisite face, he couldn't help remembering the image of her in a swimsuit as an old woman... It had haunted his nightmares for years in his previous life...

"Hmm? What do you mean? Hehehe, all right, I promise." Chiyo thought Dave was rather adorable. Yes, I should have a little boy with Reto someday to play with, too.

"Hey, brat, settle down." Shamon, who had watched Dave cause trouble from start to finish, finally spoke up.

"Huh? Mister, why do you have a worm tattooed on your head? Is it because you can't grow any hair, or because you're insecure about being ugly?" Dave turned toward Shamon, Reto's disciple and the future Second Kazekage. Keep roasting them!

"A worm? Ugly? Insecure? Brat!! I'm a Dragon!! A Dragon! Do you understand?! Do you?!" Shamon froze, then roared in fury.

"Boohoo, Uncle Madara, this man is scary. He's yelling at me... boohoo..." Dave looked at Shamon's contorted face. With a Dragon Claw tattooed over his left eye, he really was frightening when he glared... Instantly, Dave buried himself in Uncle Madara's arms and sobbed like a child frightened by a creepy old man...

"Boy, do you want to dance?"

Seeing his adorable little Dave frightened to tears by an ugly man with a Dragon tattoo on his head—a man even uglier than Hashirama—Madara opened his scarlet Sharingan and addressed Shamon.

My adorable little Dave is always happy every day. Even I can't bear to make him cry. Who dares make him cry? Do you have a death wish?

Shamon swallowed his anger and fell silent... He recognized Madara Uchiha, of course... He also knew his own limits. Even his master might not be able to beat Madara, so how could he?

Just as silence settled over the room, the door slowly swung open.

"Oh, the Hokage, Tsuchikage, and Kazekage are all here. Looks like I'm late." Three figures slowly entered through the doorway, the one in front wearing a conical hat marked with the Raikage's title.

"Madara Uchiha, Tobirama Senju. Hah, you're here too." Raikage A walked in with his two guards, then spotted the two bastards who had beaten him up back then without a shred of martial honor. No, without a shred of shinobi honor.

"Hmph." Tobirama Senju snorted coldly.

As the saying went, enemies saw red when they met. Raikage A stared hard at the two men, then slowly sat down beside the Kazekage. He knew better than to push his luck...

Honestly, A, the First Raikage, looked like a foreigner from Dave's previous life, and his skin was very dark.

"Mister, is this man your son?" Dave wiped the tear tracks from his face and walked up to Raikage A. He looked at him, then at the future Second Raikage A standing behind him, and asked his question.

"Yes—wait, what is it, brat?" Raikage A looked somewhat displeased at the white-haired brat who had suddenly appeared in front of him, though considering the occasion, he still held his temper.

"Mister, is he... not your biological son...? Look, he's got a white strip over his nose, and he's got so much facial hair, while you don't have a single hair here. You're like a little pig that's just had all its bristles scalded off. But you're not as white as a piggy. You're so dark." With his index finger resting against his lip, Dave looked rather adorable as he said things that nearly drove the Raikage mad.

"Brat!!!" Raikage A wasted no words on Dave. He thrust a hand viciously toward Dave's throat, powerful blue chakra flaring around his body.

"Aah!!" Madara had kept his eyes on Dave the entire time. The moment he saw Raikage A move, he appeared in front of Dave, seized Raikage A's hand, and violently bent it backward.

Raikage A collapsed to the floor, clutching his arm and howling.

"Raikage, do you have a death wish?!" Seeing his son attacked, Tobirama lunged at the Raikage on the floor. The future Second Kage tried to stop him, but how could he possibly contend with Tobirama's speed at his current level?

In an instant, Tobirama had a kunai pressed against the Raikage's throat.

This black bastard actually dared lay a hand on my child? I can't even bear to scold him, and you dare attack him? How dare you?

It had all happened in the blink of an eye. By the time the other two Kage recovered their senses, Tobirama already had a kunai against the Raikage's throat.

"Hokage, hurry and tell your people to stop! We're in the middle of the Five Kage Summit. If anything happens to the Raikage, Konoha won't be able to explain it away!" Lie hurriedly shouted to Hashirama.

"Tobirama, stop." Hashirama frowned as he addressed his younger brother. He had actually wanted to act as well, but Madara and Tobirama had beaten him to it. You dare hurt my adorable little nephew? Do you want to be driven out of the shinobi world?

"Hmph. Remember, the Five Kage Summit is what saved your life. The next time we meet, you won't be so lucky." Tobirama put away his kunai and slowly stood, looking down at Raikage A with a trace of killing intent.

Tobirama knew perfectly well that he couldn't kill Raikage A. But the man had dared bully his son. How could he let him off without making him suffer a little?

With that, the incident came to an end. The future Second Kage hurriedly called over the Land of Iron's medical ninja to treat Raikage A.

At the same time, everyone except those from Konoha had the same question: just who was this white-haired brat, to make both Madara Uchiha, the Asura of the Ninja World, and Tobirama Senju so furious?
