Seeing Yue Jiancheng asking them to find a place to rest for who knows how many times, Madara frowned, snorted coldly and began to look for a suitable place to rest in the leeward wind, "Even a pregnant woman would not be more delicate than you."

Yue Jiancheng's face flushed, and his breathing seemed a little rapid. Hearing this, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and smiled, "Sorry, sorry, I've been indulging in romance and officialdom for too long, and my body can't keep up."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yuejian, we may not have much time for you to rest."

Yue Jiancheng was stunned. He looked at Ling pulling out his staff sword, his expression stiffened unnaturally for a moment, "Mr. Ninja, what are you doing..."

"For your own safety, please stay where you are and don't wander around." Ling tapped the ground with the tip of his knife and turned to the side. "My friend over there, how long are you going to follow me stealthily?"

Madara turned to the direction Ling was facing, drew his weapon, and took a step sideways to block Izuna. However, even after he concentrated and was on guard, he still did not notice anything unusual.

After waiting for a long time, Ban couldn't help but shift his gaze to look at Ling, only to find that Ling no longer had a smile on his face, and there was even a faint flash of lightning on the tip of the knife - he looked as if he was fully prepared for battle.

[It seems that he sensed the enemy through the perception ninjutsu,] Madara frowned slowly, [And brother's expression... Isn't the person coming the relatively familiar Senju? ]

Just when Madara was wondering which ninja clan had taken on the opposing mission, a weak female voice with a tearful tone sounded, "Yes, I'm sorry... I, I don't want to follow you, and I don't have the will to fight. I, I just..."

Madara: ...Which ninja is so shameful.

"If you don't have the will to fight, then stand in front of me and explain your intentions. I will only give you one chance," Ling pressed his body down, "If your answer does not satisfy me, or if you do not intend to retreat, then we will have to decide the winner."

"Please don't be so violent! I'm weak! I'll be out right now!"

As the panicked voice fell, a slender woman jumped down from the tree opposite Ling. She was wearing a slim windbreaker, and the wide hood of the windbreaker covered the upper half of her face, adding a bit of mystery to her.

However, this smart outfit did not help her to enhance her aura much - no one would be afraid of a shabby woman who was relatively poor in height and capital, and who stumbled when she landed - of course, she still had to be on guard.

Izuna couldn't help but curl her lips and muttered softly, "I won't slip even if I jump down from the tree..."

“Yes, I’m sorry!” The woman, who was from an unknown ninja clan, hunched her shoulders and clasped her hands in front of her. Her fingers were twisted together uneasily, fully showing her master’s entanglement. “I, I’m really not good at fighting. I followed you only because of me. I just accepted the mission... I don’t want to be hostile to the Uchiha!”

Madara: ...So stupid, what tribe is this person from?

The lightning on Ling's blade tip weakened slightly, but his alert posture never changed at all. "It's a pity that we also accepted the mission."

The woman, however, seemed to be in a panic, pacing nervously on the spot, biting her nails, "What should I do, what should I do...I can't fail again..."

Yuejian Chengya frowned and lowered his voice, "Who is this...?"

"If I'm not looking for you, then I'm here to make fun of you." Madara answered casually, and finally found the family emblem on the hem of the woman's windbreaker, "This pattern... is it from the Aburame? Tsk, disgusting guy."

After hearing what Madara said, Izuna seemed to have recalled something bad and her face suddenly turned paler.

"It's okay. Although this is an adult ninja, her strength is not very high." Ling raised one hand to press the back of his neck, moving his joints slightly, and lowered his voice. "If a fight breaks out, you can take your men to a distance and wait for me to deal with her. By the way, learn how to deal with the ninjas of Aburame."

During the conversation between the three brothers, the woman's emotions finally seemed to collapse, and her weak voice became shrill.

"No, no! I must complete this mission! If I don't complete it, if I can't complete it, I can't be a ninja anymore!"

Even though they were in a hostile situation, Madara couldn't help but twitch his lips - [If it's this lame, there's no need to make things difficult for yourself, right? ]

Izuna didn't say anything, but looking at her extremely shocked expression, it was obvious that she was thinking the same thing as Madara.

As if she knew what they were thinking, the woman's voice became a little nervous, "I have the ability to extract chakra, but I can't become a ninja. If that's the case, then I'm useless to the clan!

The clan will not support useless people! I, I will die! I don’t want to die! So I must complete this mission! Please, please! Don’t stop me! I don’t want to fight! I don’t like fighting! But I really want to live! I don’t want to die!"

"Get rid of someone just because he has talent but can't fight?" Madara's expression twisted uncontrollably, "Is your clan crazy?"

"If it's the Aburame clan, then she's right."

Ban immediately shifted his gaze to look at Ling, "So they will really kill the tribe members?"

"Well - it's not the kind of killing you think, but it's not an exaggeration to say that life is worse than death." Ling exhaled lightly, his tone was also a little heavy, "In the Aburame clan, those who have talent but fail to become ninjas have only one destination - that is to be given to insects.

These abandoned people must constantly produce chakra to feed the bugs and provide them with nutrients. If they are female members, it is even worse. Before being sent to feed the bugs, they must also become the breeding machines of the tribe, constantly giving birth to children who may have the qualifications to cultivate chakra, until they can no longer get pregnant...

In the end, not even the flesh and bones of these abandoned people were left - in a sense, this is the ultimate exploration of a person's role."
