Ban smiled sadly, speaking in a tone of relief.

"I can't believe someone stabbed me in the back."

Just as Yuan warned.

"I want to protect our village, protect my village."

"No matter what happens, I still firmly believe that protecting the village is equivalent to protecting the people, the ninjas, and the children!"

"Whether it's my friends, brothers, or even my children."

"I will never let anyone who dares to oppose the village get away with it!"

Ban listened to the words behind him, his body went limp, and he knelt in the water.

He lowered his head, staring at his own reflection in the water, his face contorted with intense heartache.

"Hashirama, we've all changed."

"You've got the priorities backwards."

"One day, this will become the darkness of Konoha."

Madara Uchiha slowly closed his eyes and collapsed into the pool of water.

If you were in Yuan's shoes, what would you do?

Before losing consciousness, Madara thought of Gen, and of Hatsuhi Village, which he now cherished and wanted to protect.

If he were in Hashirama's situation, what choice would he make?

Hashirama Senju stared coldly at Madara's corpse.

Suddenly, a feeling of powerlessness swept over him, and he couldn't help but kneel in the water.

Looking at Madara with his eyes closed, Hashirama felt as if a heavy stone was pressing down on his heart, causing him immense pain.

It's not over yet, he can't rest.

The Nine-Tails must be sealed, and Madara must be buried by Madara himself.

In the moonlit valley, with rain pattering down, Hashirama picked up Madara's corpse and weapons and slowly leaped onto the mountain above.

That night, Madara was buried, and then Tobirama Senju, who arrived at the scene, secretly dug him up with his shadow clones and hid him in a secluded place.

but

Madara Uchiha suddenly awoke, opened his eyes, and found that his right eye had turned white and lost its light.

"Master Spot."

Ban found himself leaning against a tree, surrounded by the four Melalus black cats that had followed him.

He gave a self-deprecating laugh and slowly stood up.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Lord Ban is the village chief, and our duty is to ensure that Lord Ban can return safely."

Madara Uchiha picked up the flame fan handed to him by Melalus and carried it on his back.

This wasn't exactly a pleasant experience.

Honesty and mutual trust

Hashirama, even we can't do that, so how can we talk about making everyone in the world understand each other?

At that moment, Ban suddenly realized something and took out the notebook he had been holding close to his heart.

A knife mark was left on the top corner.

Tsk!

Madara Uchiha's face darkened as he channeled his chakra into it.

'Thank goodness, the sealing spell inside wasn't broken!'

Ban opened the notebook and saw a large character for "pain" and two sentences written on it.

【Take good care of your laptop, you bastard! It's very fragile!】

Remember to take it back and fix it; don't let it happen again!

A smile involuntarily crept onto Ban's lips.

For some reason, I felt a little relieved.

This is a one-time exception.

Ban placed the notebook back against his heart.

This will never happen again!

"Let's go back."

"Yes!" x4

Ban leaped up and ran towards the direction of Churi Village.

I already miss it after only four days away.

In Konoha, as long as the God of Shinobi is there, the entire village will always be in a peaceful atmosphere.

The Uchiha clan members were overjoyed to learn of Madara's death, but they were also very uneasy, fearing that the village's rejection of them would become even more severe.

After bringing his elder brother back, Tobirama Senju secretly went to find Madara's body, only to discover that the body had been stolen. He wanted to search for it but could not openly go against his elder brother's wishes, so he had to give up.

Hashirama helped his wife, Mito Uzumaki, completely suppress the Nine-Tails, and Mito herself sealed it into her body.

Seemingly to vent his pent-up emotions, he drank several jars of sake that night before finally resting after being scolded by Mito.

He killed his dearest friend who had become a stranger with his own hands; how could he not be in pain?

Why did they end up like this?

Tonight, both Madara and Hashirama were sullen and depressed.

just

As the sun rose, Ban and Melalus finally arrived at Hatsuhi Village.

To Ban's utter surprise, he actually saw a group of people at the door.

"Uncle Ban! Welcome home!!!"

Kiyoi Ai, Kiyoi Megumi, their four younger sisters, Izli, Lan, and even Fenris were standing at the village entrance, waving to him.

This is?

"Lord Ban, we notified Lady Hui and the others ten minutes ago. Meow~"

Madara Uchiha suddenly realized.

Just as he ran to within ten meters of the village entrance, Kiyoi Ai suddenly jumped up and pounced on him.

!!!

Don't fall!

With a look of panic, Madara caught Kiyoi Ai with both hands and gently put her down.

"Uncle Ban, I'm so glad you're back."

"and many more!"

What happened to your right eye?

Kiyoi Ai hurriedly touched Madara's body in a panic, and found blood-stained fabric on his left chest and a small hole in his clothes.

"Oh! Uncle Ban, you haven't been injured here before, have you?"

Her wide eyes instantly welled up with tears, looking as if she was about to cry.

Ban's mind went completely blank for a moment.

His biggest fear is dealing with crying children.

But he knew very well that Kiyoi Ai was sad because she was worried about him.

"Xiao Ai! There's absolutely no problem!"

"Isn't there no wound?"

"The side effect of using the Sharingan's secret technique on my eye is that it will recover after eating a meal."

After saying that, Madara Uchiha looked at Fenris with pleading eyes.

Fenris raised his arms, revealing his powerful biceps.

"Leave the cooking to me! Meow~"

Madara breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Kiyoi Ai's emotions were gradually stabilizing.

"Now you know, as long as I eat a proper meal, I'll be fully recovered."

"Oh, Uncle Ban, you must be lying to me."

"If I don't see Uncle Ban looking radiant later, then Sister Lan and I will forcibly take you to the hospital."

Ban nodded in agreement.

It's alright if you don't cry, it's alright if you don't cry.

His originally cold face was now forced into a stiff smile.

Ban pulled Kiyoi Ai and the others into Hatsuhi Village.

Unbeknownst to him, his mental state had improved considerably, and the pent-up frustration in his heart was almost gone.

Perhaps his adopted niece really does possess some kind of magical power.

at the same time.

One kilometer from the entrance of Churi Village, a dark shadow peeked out from the ground.

It turns out that Madara didn't die; it seems he even achieved his goal.
