“Do children really understand what a ninja is? Do they want to become a ninja out of their own will or because of the influence of others?”

Ling picked up the wine cup again, "So if you want peace to come, then at least let the children understand the concept of good and evil, and then make their own choices, instead of wanting to become a ninja just because their fathers and brothers are ninjas, or even being proud of it.

You are right about one thing, we are just militants who have been taught to kill since childhood, so if it is for peace, at least we should withdraw now."

Uzumaki Yi frowned slightly, his relaxed look gone, "Hey, Ling... do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course, I always know what I am doing -" Ling turned to Uzumaki Yi again, "Even though I know that if this thing is implemented, it will easily subvert the foundation of a ninja clan."

"Ha, I think you are quite crazy--" Uzumaki Yi raised his hand to ruffle his hair, looking a little irritated, "I sacrificed my sleep to accompany you in the middle of the night, and in the end you let me listen to this kind of crazy talk?"

Ling laughed softly, "I can't help it. No matter how calm I am, I am still an Uchiha - don't you know that?"

Uzumaki Yi looked even more annoyed. "Of course I know that kind of thing, but the thing is, I actually think that what you said makes some sense - this is really crazy!"

"Oh, it's an honor. If the enemy agrees with me, it means that I'm on the right track." Ling's smile became more genuine. "But as you said, we've been exposed to killing since we were young. It's a bit of a pipe dream to suddenly pursue peace. So if you can come up with any more constructive suggestions, that would be a great help. I will promise to hold back on your people at least three times."

Uzumaki Yi put his index fingers on his temples, his face full of headache, "Enough, don't tempt me with this kind of thing - and compared to that illusory peace, you might as well think about how to deal with your relationship with the Senju first. If you two tribes don't settle down, how can the Fire Nation still dream of peace? You can be crazy, but can you stop dreaming?"

"Hmm - indeed," Ling raised his hand and touched his chin, "Thanks, Yi, for pointing me in a good direction."

"...No, are you serious?"

"I never lie - even to my enemies." Ling's smile widened slightly. "After all, I can't tell my father or my brothers about this kind of thing. Xiaoyou is simple-minded and doesn't understand the twists and turns in this regard... Having a guy like you who is both an enemy and a friend is really a big help, so I decided to hold back five times. How about it? Good for you, right?"

"If you dare tell this to your father, I guarantee he'll put you in solitary confinement for at least a month to calm you down..." Uzumaki Yi clicked his tongue, "And what did you just say? That tailed beast has a simple mind? According to records, it's a monster that has lived for at least thousands of years. A simple mind? Do you really not have the technology to cure the brain? How about I teach you one for free?"

"Ha, can something engraved in the bones be cured?" Ling laughed a little louder, "And I don't dare to use the method you gave me - at least I definitely don't dare to use it with our current relationship."

Xuwo Yi looked at Ling who was laughing softly and lowered his eyes, "You want to resolve the hatred between your two clans? The Ling I know would not have such a naive idea."

"Why should I resolve it? My people are easy to deal with. As long as someone can defeat them fairly, they will willingly choose to follow... The Senju clan is so large, there should be a brilliant figure before I die, right?"

Ling bent his legs and propped his chin on his hand. "By the way, what do you think of Hashirama? With a little guidance, can he grow up to be the best in the ninja world? After all, there are not many people who can say to the enemy during the war between the two clans, "We will definitely understand each other."

"...That kid did something so incredible?"

"Yeah, I was really scared at the time - so I held back a little and didn't use any ninjutsu, allowing him to escape successfully."

Uzumaki ruffled his hair even more irritably, "Well, even if you can handle it this way, what about the Senju? What are you going to do? They are not the type to surrender just because you beat them."

"Ah, that's easy. As long as there's someone who can scare them to death, they will know what to choose in the best interests of themselves when faced with an unattainable force..." Ling still propped up his chin, his posture lazy, "It doesn't take much. Give me another ten years, and I will do it - if I'm not killed before then."

Uzumaki Yi stared at Ling steadily, and after a moment he let out a long sigh, "I say... don't you think you are arrogant?"

"Oh? Really? I was just explaining the goal I want to achieve...Would you like to help me?"

Xuwo Yi was silent for a long time this time before he replied to Ling, "...what can you do for this?"

"Well - you have to risk your life anyway, right?"

"Hey, hey, hey...is it really necessary to go to this extent?"

"Haha... why not? It's my habit to do whatever I want to do with all my strength. How about it? Do you want to come?"

“Hahahahaha – crazy, crazy, really crazy –” Uzumaki Yi slapped his thigh hard, laughing louder and louder, “Ling you really are a super crazy guy!”

Ling also laughed, "Of course, I'm an Uchiha - you should understand a little bit."

"Okay! Then I'll be merciful and help you!" Whirlpool Yi snatched the wine cup that Ling had just filled in front of Ling's stunned look, drank it all in one gulp and let out a long sigh, "If I can live to that time, as long as you can deal with Qianshou, I will help you deal with Whirlpool, and no one can stop me, I say!"

"Oh my, I'm really grateful..." Ling laughed softly, and reached out to help Xuanwo Yi fill the wine, "Then I wish you a long life?"

"What a strange toast, and it's not right - it should be a toast to us," Uzumaki Yi gently clinked the wine cup with the wine pot in Ling's hand, smiling, "You can't expect me to help you reunite your two clans after you die."

Ling was slightly stunned, then chuckled, "You are right, I wish us a long life."
