Chapter 437 Ling: Only children make choices

Uchiha Qi looked at Itama, who had been depressed and lifeless since his pupil technique was unlocked, and raised his hand to poke his friend, "That boy seems to be broken."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Baijie slightly raised his head and looked away, his voice full of pity, "There's nothing we can do. Just saying that although his cognition has been modified, his memory will be retained after the cognitive barrier is removed. If it were me, I would also be annoyed - you know, he almost told us the color of his underwear."

"I think that's purely because we didn't ask... But you're right, Guang's eye technique is really convenient," Uchiha Qi sighed, "But this kid is actually quite amazing. How old is he, but he dares to sneak behind enemy lines and steal important information?"

Uchiha Baijie shrugged and continued to sort out the large amount of intelligence information that Banjian had said. "Most geniuses die quickly, and he is obviously one of them."

Hearing this, even though his mouth was sealed again, Itama still choked up very obviously - damn it, even if he was destined to die soon, you Uchiha Mangekyō are still playing tricks.

Uchiha Guang poked his head out to take a look, "Master, the child is crying, and crying miserably."

"Let him go. It's already very merciful to spare his life and then send him back. Yingsi, how is the arrangement going?"

"Hey, Ling Jun, you can trust me to do the job--" Uchiha Yingsi patted the integrated sealing scroll, "But our supplies have been delivered, what do you want me to reorganize?"

"Of course I'm going to ask for funding—" Ling tilted his head slightly, speaking in a relaxed voice, "After all, it's rare to get accurate and reliable information. It would be a shame not to go there."

Uchiha Qi frowned immediately and muttered softly, "This is the downside of working with Brother Ling..."

Uchiha Baijie also sighed, rolled up the half-organized intelligence, and muttered in a low voice, "Yeah, yeah, it's so hard to go on a safe mission, but in the end we still have to fight."

"Alas, I would rather escort the wounded than fight..."

"Who doesn't... I wish Brother Ling would stop liking fighting and killing."

"Wow, is that still Brother Ling?"

Compared to the two people's whispered complaints, Uchiha Yingji, who had expected it, just shrugged and said, "Okay, I guessed it - who are you going to rob?"

Ling's smile faded a little, "Only children make choices, right?"

Uchiha Guang raised his head, looking extremely shocked, "Master, you are really shameless - a temporary ally is still an ally."

"Don't say that. I won't do anything like attacking my allies." Ling Qu flicked Uchiha Guang's forehead with his finger. "But after being attacked by Uchiha, it's not certain that there are still credible sources of information for Senju, right? Bai Jie, how are you sorting it out?"

Uchiha Baijie sighed and stood up, his voice weak, "I have no problem here - the intelligence scrolls for disguise have been sorted out, and I will sort out the rest when I get back."

Uchiha Qi looked around, raised his hand to pick up Banjian, who had lost his dream, from the ground and carried him, and sighed like Uchiha Baijie, "I'm ready too."

Ling checked his equipment again and took a step forward with great interest, "Okay, let's go - haha, I really have to thank Xiao Banjian who was chased to a dead end."

Hearing this, Banjian, who was already heartbroken and desperate, felt even more heartbroken - this was too much, he was already so miserable and yet they still wanted to hurt him.

……

"No, no... Why not? It should be in this direction, it should be in this direction!"

"That's enough, Hashirama, don't let yourself get confused - no news is the best news at a time like this."

"But Itama has clearly sent out a distress signal!" Hashirama turned around suddenly and glared at Senju Hokugi fiercely, "How can I regard this as good news when I can't find anyone in this situation!"

[Oh, I was yelled at. This kid has been in a bad mood since he came out this time...] Senju Beimu's expression remained unchanged, and his voice remained calm, "I just know that if you continue in this state, even good news will turn into bad news."

Hashirama still held his neck stiff, but his hands were shaking unconsciously, "But we can't find it... We have found traces of Hagoromo, traces of Uchiha, and traces of other clansmen, and reported them all, but we can't find Itama..."

"Most of the tribe has been found. We should now continue our mission."

Hearing this, Hashirama fell silent. After a long while, he looked up at Senju Hashiro who was speaking. His expression was terrifyingly calm. "…You mean, you want me to give up the search, right?"

[This kid is already on the verge of collapse, and you are provoking him with your stubborn mind!] Senju Beimu stopped his companion who was about to nod and preach, and said, "It's not that we give up the search and rescue, but we have to do it simultaneously. The rest of the tribesmen are also fighting with their lives. We can't give up more people just because of one person."

Hashirama clenched his fists, exhaled slightly, and looked up at Senju Sousuke who had been silent the whole time, "I see... Is there any other direction we can search in?"

"When we came along the river just now, there was an intersection with traces on both sides. We just chose the side with obvious traces. We can go to the other side next."

Senju Sosuke withdrew his vigilant gaze from the surroundings, "Also, the summoned beast just brought us a message, asking us to stop the search and go to support the flank of the battlefield. If you insist on searching, Kobashirama, this is the last location."

Hashirama also knew that the power he had now was not enough for him to act recklessly, so even though he was very worried, he still tried his best to calm down after taking a few deep breaths and said, "I understand. I'm sorry to have troubled everyone. Let's do a final search."
