Chapter 269 Ling: The whirlpools have far more evil intentions than the hands.

Seeing Ling's firm attitude, Madara stopped asking questions and just added the matter of going to the place where the clan scrolls were stored to investigate the Six Paths Sage to his schedule. However, he still couldn't help but wonder in his heart - [Does the Six Paths Sage, a thing in storybooks, really exist? ]

Madara frowned unconsciously, [Why would my brother suddenly investigate this kind of thing? What on earth caught my brother's attention? And my brother has been emphasizing the promise, could this be related to the Sharingan? ]

Izuna glanced at Madara who was lost in thought, blinked her eyes, picked up the gift box that she had prepared long ago, and walked to Ling's side. Together with him, she leaned on Youlu, "Hey, brother, I also prepared a gift for you, right?"

"Really?" Ling smiled and reached out to rub the top of Quanna's head, "What is it?"

"It's a dagger made of chakra steel," Izuna handed the box to Ling, her tone expectant and excited, "Brother and Madara are going to demonstrate to the Hagoromo clan during the truce, right? This will definitely come in handy then."

Ling laughed immediately, "It's okay at home, but outside, some things can't be said directly. You have to exchange ideas. After all, some people with troubled identities like to nitpick... This will bring trouble to their own actions and the clan they belong to."

"I know - I'm saying this because I'm at home," Izumi raised her hand and hugged Ling's arm, smiling sweetly, "But the Feathered Clan feels so lame. You know, when we fought the Thousand Hands, we didn't ask for reinforcements at all, and we even drove their reinforcements away!

They used to be the main force of the Fire Nation against the Thousand Hands, and for so many years they always claimed to be invincible under the Thousand Hands - now they come to us to form an alliance to deal with the Thousand Hands, don't you feel ashamed?"

"Hehe... Hibernation is certainly a good method for some purposes, but if you hibernate for too long, even a dragon will become worse than a flying squirrel."

Ling chuckled as he took the dagger out of the box. After stroking the blade, he made a flower knife with his hand. "Well, there is no breakpoint in the conduction of chakra. From the sound of it, it has been well polished. It must be a good weapon. I will make good use of this gift."

Madara on the side was also brought back to his senses by the reflected sword light, and quickly picked up the chakra steel sword he had prepared and moved over from the other side, "Brother, this is my gift - your sword should have started to wear out, right? It's better to always have a spare weapon with you."

"That's thoughtful, Madara." Ling took the new staff sword with a smile, checked it as before, and then stretched out his other hand to rub the top of Madara's head, "Brother will use it well - speaking of which, the sword I customized myself should be finished... Well, having too many weapons can be a kind of sweet trouble."

"Then let's keep this knife at home. After all, carrying too many protective gear and weapons will slow down your speed and put you in danger..." Madara looked a little disappointed, but his tone was not fluctuating at all. "So brother, you should give priority to using the knives you customized. After all, knives you customized yourself will be more convenient to use than ordinary customized ones."

"What are you thinking? Such useful weapons should not be left idle." Ling raised his hand and flicked Ban's forehead, sheathed the two new weapons and placed them beside him. "But carrying them is indeed a problem... Well, do we really have to find a way to ask Yi for help?"

"Brother, what are you talking about!" Izuna's eyes suddenly widened. "The fact that that pervert didn't do anything to you shows how close they are to each other. How could he possibly help you?!"

"I do know that the Uzumaki clan is good at sealing, and can even use the human body as a container to store some things. I also know that you and that red-haired guy are both enemies and friends, and you respect each other... But no matter what, you are still enemies, right?"

Madara covered his forehead and considered his words, his expression extremely tangled, "Letting the enemy use the technique he is best at to transform your body, even if it is fine at the time, there will definitely be some tricks left on it, right? Isn't this very dangerous?"

"It doesn't matter. As long as it's not a positional battle, he can't beat me even if he uses some tricks - after all, the most terrifying side of the Uzumaki clan is never a head-on confrontation..." Ling chuckled, "Do you know what Yi is famous for?"

Madara and Izuna both shook their heads, and Izuna took the initiative to speak, "Is there anything good about that pervert?"

"That should have been before our second or third fight. I was on another battlefield at the time, so I didn't see it with my own eyes. I heard about it from Akihiko later..."

Ling reached out and picked up the wine glass. "Yi was surrounded by enemies, but he took three or five of his clansmen to a small canyon. With the help of a hastily set up sealing formation, he held out for two hours against Senior Changfeng who possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan. Finally, he was successfully rescued when reinforcements arrived. As for the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan... I think my father should have shown it to you a little bit."

Madara clenched his fist subconsciously, his eyes widened, "Is that red-haired guy so powerful?"

"Of course, don't underestimate him. In fact, he prepared instant sealing skills several times when he approached me. Whether it's vigilance, scheming, or magnanimity, that guy is the best among the best."

Ling put down the cup and drank all the wine in the pot in one gulp, "Besides, if he wasn't strong, he would have become a dead soul under my sword long ago, how can he be both my enemy and friend?

So don't take the trash he said when you met him too seriously. He was just trying to disgust you and find flaws when exchanging information. You know, the Uzumakis have much more evil intentions than the Senjus."
