Start with the Mangekyō and leave Konoha with Madara.

Kamnobi Bridge, underground base.

Uchiha Nen clasped the corners of his clothes with both hands, lowered his head, and fixed his eyes on the bluestone floor under his feet, looking quite trembling.

Today was the day he met the legendary Uchiha ninja for the first time.

"Calculating the time, you have been with me for quite some time. You have performed well during this trip to the Land of Whirlpools. It is time for you to meet Lord Madara."

In the laboratory of Sanlang Mountain, Shen Yu said this and cast an inquiring look at Uchiha Guang opposite him.

"Guang, what do you think?"

"I have no objection." Guang put the flame fan back on her back and looked at Uchiha Nen with her beautiful eyes. "Nen is a good kid. I am happy to see him. I believe that Lord Madara will not hate him."

Shen Yu touched his chin and said, "I think so too. Let him stay with Master Madara and learn more. It won't go wrong."

"Well, it may not be a bad thing for Madara-sama. He can have someone to accompany him..."

Just like that, with just a few words from the two, in the blink of an eye, Nian was brought to the Kammubi Bridge through the portal and stood steadily in the base.

He was a little excited in his heart. You know, in his uncle's heart, the legendary "Lord Ban" occupied a large proportion, which meant that he had not truly gained his recognition until now!

What comes into view is a spacious stone chamber. Compared with the well-lit laboratory, the light here is a little dim, so it is very dark around, but it does not feel cold and damp, but rather warm.

The floor was made of some kind of hard stone surface, not very smooth, but full of an ancient and old atmosphere. The room was fully furnished with all kinds of wooden furniture, and a clan flag with the Uchiha emblem hung on the wall.

Following his gaze, he continued to scan forward and soon saw the huge stone chair and a pair of legs in the center of the master bedroom.

When he thought that this was Uchiha Madara himself, he felt a little timid in his heart. He quickly lowered his head and his eyes wandered around, but he avoided the stone chair as if it were a snake or scorpion, and did not dare to get even close to it.

"Lord Madara, this is my nephew, Uchiha Nen."

Shen Yu spoke first, in a casual tone, "After more than a year of my observation, I found that this kid has no problems at all. He has become someone I can completely entrust and trust."

"Oh?" A deep voice came from the front, "You want to hand him over to me?"

"I'm not giving it to you. I'm sending him here to keep you company and relieve your boredom. This kid's pupil technique is quite interesting."

"Hmm, so I need to thank you now?"

The old man's tone was somewhat sarcastic, and he was obviously resentful. "Master Shenyu is busy with all kinds of things, but he still remembers that he has a master. Your filial piety is really touching."

"Look at what you said. I am only doing this for your safety, Madara-sama. You should praise me for being steady..."

Shen Yu waved his hands and said nonchalantly to Madara's sarcasm: "How can I just put people around you without enough tests? I don't want to experience the betrayal of my relatives again."

Nian subconsciously leaned closer to his uncle, but Shenyu actually walked over directly and sat next to Ban to ask for tea.

He immediately turned his eyes to his aunt for help, but Uchiha Hikaru acted as if he had returned home. He took off his flame fan, put on a light blue apron, pushed the door open without even saying hello, and ran to the kitchen to cook.

Uchiha Madara didn't react at all, and it seemed that he had acquiesced to this behavior.

I was simply amazed. These three people demonstrated the spirit of "the guest follows the host's wishes" to the fullest extent.

The guests are easy-going and the host is casual.

"Lift your head and let me see."

A majestic voice came from the front. Nian could only take a deep breath, slowly raised his head, and finally saw the person in front of him clearly for the first time.

The man leaned lightly on the back of the chair, his sitting posture was quite domineering, he had a pair of slightly weird red and white eyes, and waterfall-like long hair mixed with strands of silver hair. Although he was no longer young in appearance and the fine wrinkles added a touch of vicissitudes to him, his deep gaze seemed to reflect the sky, evolving all things in the universe.

"Uchiha Nen, greetings to Lord Madara."

He bowed his head slightly, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.

"He has a good demeanor, but his strength is a little weak." Madara gave his comment.

Shen Yu said, "Nian, come here and offer a cup of tea. From now on, you will follow Master Madara."

Nian immediately did as he was told and raised the teacup. As the slightly hot tea flowed into the cup, wisps of hot steam rose up, and Ban's usually calm profile also revealed a slight smile.

He picked up the teacup and slowly took a sip, and the ceremony was complete.

Soon, the aroma of onions drifted into the stone chamber from the kitchen. Nian's nose twitched and his stomach began to make a rumbling sound.

"Aunt is not only young and beautiful, but also very capable. I didn't expect that she is also a great cook..." Nian took a satisfied breath, with a hint of longing in his eyes, "In the future, I want to be like my uncle and find a girl who is both capable of housework and cooking to be my wife..."

Just as I was thinking, Madara's voice suddenly came from beside me:

"Nian, I'll give you your first task."

"Here!" Nian immediately held his breath and concentrated, making up his mind with all his strength.

"Go to the kitchen now and tell Guang that he won't eat carrots today." Madara said solemnly.

"Yes...ah?" Nian was stunned. Lord Madara had a serious expression on his face just now. If he asked him to assassinate the Daimyo of the Fire Country, he would not hesitate at all.

But… carrots…?

Shen Yu urged from the side: "Go quickly, this is really important."

"Oh, alright."

When Nian pushed the door open and went out, Ban also slowly looked at Shen Yu.

"So, can I assume that the Uzumaki clan is under your control?"

"It's not that serious. They just promised to help me suppress the 'wedge'." Shen Yu smiled lightly, "As for the result, we can only wait silently."

Madara showed a thoughtful look, "With the Uzumaki clan's attainments in sealing techniques, it probably won't take too long..."

"Not necessarily. The power of the Otsutsuki has exceeded the cognition of us ninjas." Shen Yu took a sip of tea. "Being prepared in advance will also make it easier to deal with them in the future."

"Prepare for a rainy day, that's good." Madara clenched his fist silently, "No matter if it's an Otsutsuki or a god, if they dare to block the road to peace, they will all be killed!"

Madara calmed down for a while, turned around and smiled, "However, your plan for the Uzumaki clan this time, why do you think it looks familiar to me?"

"Watch the crisis and then help when it's too late."

"Lord Madara, I am taking the initiative this time." Shen Yu smiled meaningfully.

Four days ago, a monster with a black cloth covering its face, a burly figure, and black tentacles all over its body, blocked the way of the Second Generation Kazekage Shamon.

Feeling the strange aura of this man, the ninjas suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy, but the expected battle did not begin. The sturdy man simply dropped a head and disappeared underground.

The man with messy red hair and a ferocious expression was none other than Uzumaki Rei.
