Chapter 544: Vortex Yi doesn't want to die in a traffic accident

After some flurry of activity, Ling and Xuanwo Yi successfully figured out how to control the small platform before it touched the top, and regained control of the platform to slowly fall down.

"The puppet that led the way was destroyed—" Uzumaki Yi manipulated the platform to fly in various ways in the air with great interest, "and it seems that no new one has been sent over."

Ling used chakra to fix himself on the platform. He was also very interested in this new means of transportation, so he had no intention of stopping Uzumaki Yi. "Just go ahead. At this distance, the call from the dragon vein is already very clear."

"That's fine—do you want me to take control?"

Ling nodded slightly reservedly and took over the control of the platform directly, but after a while, the control was taken away by Xuanwo Yi again. Xuanwo Yi's reason was very simple - he didn't want to die in a traffic accident.

Ling could only sit back and start giving directions regretfully as Xuanwo Yi complained about his driving skills.

While the two were heading towards the dragon vein, Namikaze Minato and his party were also heading towards the central tower. After feeling the loud roar coming from the central tower, the faces of several people became more solemn, and they silently quickened their pace again. However, they saw that at the central tower, the [people] were still holding the ceremony enthusiastically, as if they had not heard the roar just now.

When they got closer and saw clearly that those [people] were actually just lightly disguised puppets, they all felt a chill, and Sarah seemed more and more anxious. She leaned on Akimichi Tingzuo's back and pointed out the way to enter the tower to Minato Namikaze, but she couldn't help but shed tears, "I'm so stupid, really. After my father passed away, I just let An Lushan do whatever he wanted, and I didn't even think carefully about the dire situation my people were living in. I accidentally discovered the message left by my mother and wanted to make a change, but I was assassinated to this point. I don't deserve to be a king at all..."

Uzumaki Naruto really wanted to complain about Sarah's inconsistencies, but in the end he remembered the argument he had with someone over Uzumaki Yi's issue, and Minato was in a dilemma at the time, so he suppressed his unhappiness and said nothing.

When the few people entered the tower from the bottom, the first thing they saw was a huge puppet that was severely damaged.

Compared to Uzumaki Naruto who rushed out shouting "How big! So cool!", Namikaze Minato and his companions looked unhappy - they set out for the central tower not much later than Ling and his companions. Judging from the time when the roar came and their distance from the central tower, even if the two were faster than them, they were only slightly faster, and they were probably attacked as soon as they entered the tower.

But this battle, which was almost like one side ambushing the other, ended so quickly - the winner was still the one who was ambushed.

[Our era is too peaceful, so the growth rate is slow...] Namikaze Minato frowned, [Perhaps those two never deliberately blurred anything - but how intense was the conflict that they could say with a smile that our era is too peaceful and the growth rate is slow?]

"Ugh-"

The moment the exclamation sounded, Namikaze Minato came to Uzumaki Naruto through the mark left by the previous contact, "What's wrong?!"

Uzumaki Naruto sat trembling on the wreckage of the giant puppet, not caring whether he was familiar with Namikaze Minato or not, he rushed over and hugged his thighs, closed his eyes tightly and pointed in a direction tremblingly, "Die, die, die——"

Namikaze Minato looked in the direction Naruto pointed out, and when his sight touched the pool of bright red, he paused slightly. He subconsciously looked up to observe the various traces left on the tower, and finally fixed his gaze on the middle of the tower. His expression became more serious, but after a brief gaze, he turned his attention to Uzumaki Naruto, looking a little helpless, "Naruto, that's just a dead man."

"Of course I know! But his death was so tragic!"

Namikaze Minato was stunned, then raised his hand and rubbed Uzumaki Naruto's head with some sadness - he somewhat understood why Uzumaki Yi said that their era was too peaceful.

[Perhaps the world is gradually becoming peaceful... But is this kind of peace really right for us as ninjas?] Namikaze Minato looked down at Naruto with some embarrassment, [If you are frightened by a death of this degree, can you really become a qualified ninja?

Or, Naruto, are you really fit to be a ninja? Am I forcing a fate on you that you shouldn't have to bear? 】

Namikaze Minato looked a little gloomy, but he still gathered his thoughts and tried to calm Uzumaki Naruto down. However, before he could figure out how to calm Uzumaki Naruto down, he heard Sarah's exclamation again - "Oh my God, this outfit - An Lushan?! But how could it be - Ugh!"

Namikaze Minato was stunned, and looked at the shapeless body on the ground again. After a moment, he turned his head to look at Aburame Shihui, "Shihui, can your bug still track the traces of those two people?"

"I'll try..." After a moment of silence, Aburame Shihui raised her hand and pointed downwards, "Yisubi said there was a chakra reaction all the way down, but I'm not sure if it was them."

"Absolutely! The black-haired kid said that his purpose for coming here is the dragon vein!" Sarah barely recovered from the shock of the corpses. "The dragon vein is in the underground cave of the central tower! I will show you the way, but please make sure to stop them!"

Minato Namikaze didn't know how to explain the origins of the two people to the somewhat bewildered Sarah, so he could only nod helplessly and lead the team downwards.

The journey downward was very peaceful, but as the team went deeper and deeper, Minato Namikaze gradually felt the excessively concentrated and restless natural energy around him, and he could not help but gesture to the team to be on high alert.

Finally, after turning the last corner and pushing open the gate in front of them, the two teams met again, but Minato Namikaze's prepared speech was suppressed by the oncoming wind pressure before he could finish it. In the end, he could only look at the thin boy standing at the forefront of the dragon vein seal with a shocked face, looking up at the illusory mist that vaguely turned into a dragon with a calm face, letting his hair fly and his clothes cold without retreating or flinching, and his still childish voice came with the wind pressure -

"I don't accept your conditions."
