Depression filled the hearts of A Fei and Bai Jue like a raging wave. The two of them stood aside without saying a word, but their nervousness and panic could be seen from their tense nerves.

After all, what happened in front of them happened too fast, and the turn of events was beyond their expectations. They really didn't know what to do.

"I see. Was the previous battle intentional?"

A Fei seemed to suddenly understand something.

He is not a dull-minded person. Although he often does unexpected things, he also has a strong thinking ability.

Maybe he didn't react at first, but when the situation turned like this, A Fei understood that the previous battle was just a trap set by Liuli for them.

Not only does he rely on brute force and obey the doctrine of force, he still has excellent layout capabilities in battles and annihilation battles.

"It's too late to understand at this time. What's in that?"

Liuli focused her gaze on the darkness ahead and narrowed her eyes slightly.

After arriving here, she felt that there was a very strange atmosphere surrounding the place in the darkness in front of her.

If there is no sound, you can still hear a faint gasp.

"etc!"

Ah Fei planned to step forward to stop him, but Liuli was one step faster than him and used the teleportation technique to leave the place.

A Fei quickly turned around to look, and Liuli was already standing in the darkness, looking at the things inside with her pair of three-magatama Sharingan.

The huge monster shadow should be made of wood, but the chakra gives Liuli a very cold feeling, and there is a suffocating feeling like being stuck in a deep quagmire.

In front of the monster, there was a figure breathing slightly.

Judging from the frequency and sound of wheezing, this person was in very bad condition and was so weak that even walking was a problem.

Liuli continued to step forward, strolling towards the source of the sound.

Every footsteps is very clear.

Finally, stop at the location of the sound source.

An extremely old man with wrinkles on his face sat down in front of the huge shadow, lowering his head and panting, showing an unusually weak state.

His long white hair fell down, and his palms were as dry as firewood.

He was wearing a shabby gray-blue dress with signs of damage on the corners.

On the clothes he was wearing, Liuli saw Uchiha's Uchiha fan mark.

"A member of the Uchiha clan? But I didn't expect you to be in such an embarrassing state. Who are you?"

Liuli didn't know the identity of this old man, but he was so old that even walking would be a difficult problem.

After listening to Liuli's narration, the old man slowly raised his head, revealing the same three magatama Sharingan as Liuli.

His lips were dry, and his face was lined with wrinkles, as rough as the bark of a tree.

"I never thought that after so many years since I left the family, Uchiha could still give birth to an outstanding ninja like you..."

His words seemed to be sighing, as if he was missing something.

Liuli stared at the old man's face, wondering where he had seen this face before.

Although he was aging badly, she could vaguely feel that this face was that of an Uchiha she had seen in the past.

However, in her impression, among the existing retired elders of Uchiha, this old man was not among them.

Then, Liuli glanced to the side and saw a strange long-handled weapon.

It is not accurate to say that it is a weapon. In the eyes of ordinary people, this does not look like a weapon at all, but in Liuli's eyes, this is indeed a weapon recorded in the Uchiha clan.

And it's a long-lost weapon.

Liuli bent down, ignored the old man's muttering to himself, picked up the weapon, put it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while.

It is not light in weight. It is a round fan weapon with a magatama pattern engraved on it.

The other end of the long handle is connected to an iron chain, and the other end of the iron chain is a sharp long-handled sickle.

"This is Uchiha's flame ball fan, why is it in your hand?"

Ever since Madara Uchiha was defeated in the battle with Senju Hashirama in the Valley of the End, this iconic weapon belonging to Uchiha has been missing.

Liuli thought that this weapon was hidden by the Senju clan after Uchiha Madara's defeat and was not intended to be returned to the Uchiha clan. However, Liuli did not expect to encounter this legendary Uchi weapon here.

Wave artifact.

"My name is Madara Uchiha."

The old man took a deep look at Liuli, his expression should be considered calm, and he calmly announced his identity.

Liuli held the flame fan and fell silent.

"Madara-sama!"

Ah Fei was shouting anxiously there.

"That's enough, Fei. The matter is over, there is no need to hide it anymore."

Madara said this.

Liuli glanced at the old man who called himself Madara, then slightly raised the flame fan in his hand and said:

"This weapon is very good. It will belong to me from now on. Anyway, judging from your appearance, you shouldn't be able to dance, right?"

"..."

Madara remained silent.

Indeed, as Liuli said, in his current state, he could no longer hold a weapon and fight.

Suddenly, the ground cracked and several Bai Jue emerged from different directions and attacked Liuli.

Liuli didn't even think about turning her arm, and quickly swung the sickle connected to the flame fan, cutting open the air.

Bai Zetsu's head rolled down and fell in front of Madara.

Madara did not blink his eyes from beginning to end, nor did his expression change, he just watched these white Zetsu die indifferently.

Liuli flicked the blade of the sickle with her finger, and it made a slight squeak, appearing extremely sharp.

As a result, Liuli was even more satisfied with the newly acquired weapons.

The last time I fought the Third Hokage, I was at a slight disadvantage because I didn't have any weapons at my disposal.

After all, the 'shield' of Yu Huo can only be used a few times.

Now that I have this flame fan, when I encounter that indestructible ape, I won't be as shy as before.

"Okay, we can continue to discuss our matters."

Liuli turned her gaze back.

"...Are you questioning my identity?"

Madara asked.

"So? Do I have to be surprised when I hear your name? If you are not Uchiha Madara, then you are just a rat using the name 'Madara' to act. But if you are really that Uchiha

Madara, but I'm sorry, there is no stage for you in this era. The era that belonged to you and the first generation Senju Hashirama Lord has passed long ago."

Ruri stared at Madara with his Sharingan and said these words seriously.

"Yeah?"

Madara did not get angry, but instead admired an ambitious junior like Liuli.

Much like himself, he has a desire for power.

But when I think about Madara, I think it's natural, because this is a common problem among Uchiha people.

People with stronger abilities will naturally pursue greater power.

Chasing the ultimate power above the Sharingan.

"Although Hashirama and I's era has passed, this era still remains in the past. And it is a chain that cannot be broken. And I... want to cut off all the cause and effect in this world..."

Madara spoke in a low voice.

"Cut off the cause and effect of the world? Is this the reason why you still have to survive as long as you can?"

Liuli's harsh words did not disturb Madara's heart.

Madara continued to whisper: "You who have opened your Sharingan and trained your pupil power to this point should understand one thing deeply. Depression, frustration, grief, hatred... This is a cursed world. No matter what kind of happiness mankind has had in the past

, you will end up wandering in trouble and pain all your life. This chain of 'whirlpools' is impossible for anyone to escape."

"..."

"This is an unfair world, and it is also a contradiction caused by reality. The winner controls everything, and the loser loses everything. This kind of cause and effect cannot be divided."

"..."

"And I want to cut off this cause and effect and change this miserable world...what are you doing?"

When Madara said this, he stopped suddenly and saw Liuli walking towards him.
To be continued...
