Several words immediately appeared on the blank paper.

【Who are you? 】

Kiyoi Megumi picked up a pen and wrote down Madara and her own name on it.

All the writing disappeared, and then another sentence appeared.

What's the current situation?

'You're gone.'

Kiyoi Megumi wrote a few words with trembling hands.

The writing disappeared, and the notebook seemed to fall silent.

The next second, a sealing spell appeared.

"Mr. Ban, please take the contents out of here."

Madara Uchiha placed his right hand on the white paper, and as he channeled his chakra into it, the sealed item inside was retrieved.

Many letters flew out, and the last one to be taken out was a small recorder.

"Click".

Kiyoshi Gen's voice came through the recorder.

At this moment, even Miki, who was immersed in grief, looked over.

"Hey Hey hey."

Hearing her son's lively voice, Miki, whose face had been withered, grasped at a straw and listened expectantly to what he would say next.

"Sorry, I'll be dead by the time you hear this recording."

"Sigh, although I had guessed this would happen, it's still really frustrating."

The sound from the tape recorder paused for a moment.

"I'm sorry, Mom, Xiaohui, Xiaoai, Xiaochun, Xiaoxia, Xiaoqiu, Xiaodong. I may not be able to be with you for a while."

"There are others too, and I'm sorry my passing will sadden them all."

"To make a long story short, what I want to say to everyone is in the envelope. Please read it yourselves."

"There is something very important I would like to announce here."

Everyone’s heart is raised.

"Ban, you're here, aren't you?"

Madara Uchiha nodded subconsciously, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"Although you may not be willing, I still need to ask you for a favor."

"Take over my position and become the village chief of Churi Village."

"Please protect our village and continue to realize our ideals."

"please!"

Chapter 29 A Letter to Madara

The voice from the tape recorder carried an earnest plea.

Madara Uchiha never expected that Gen Kiyoi would ask him to become the village chief of Hatsuhi Village.

Having lived in Hatsuhi Village for more than two months, how could he not understand that Hatsuhi Village's current potential is even greater than that of Konoha?

The only drawback is that their fighting strength is not as great as Konoha's, nor as strong.

But if you include him, then Hatsuhi Village is the strongest village after Konoha.

If Churi Village were truly under his control, he would gain an extremely powerful ally.

Yuan really trusts him that much?

Do you believe he can make Churi Village develop even better?

The scene fell silent as everyone stared at Madara Uchiha, seemingly wanting to know his answer.

"Mr. Ban, please read the letter your brother gave you before making a decision."

Kiyoi Kei handed over an envelope with Madara's name written on it, her right hand stained with congealed blood.

On the other side, Lan was flipping through the letters when she saw her own name and involuntarily covered her mouth.

She was almost thirty years old and never expected to experience the pain of losing a child again.

This letter from Yuan to her is probably her only solace right now.

Surprisingly, after all the letters were handed out, everyone present received one.

Lei Yumen and the other four never expected that Lord Yuan would write a letter to them specifically.

At that moment, Miki opened the envelope and read every word on it, tears welling up in her eyes once again.

"Xiaoyuan, your mom will always love you. Mom promises you that she will live a good life."

"When you come back, Mom will perform dances and play the zither for you."

She placed her son's head on her lap, and tears dripped onto the letter, forming plum blossom-shaped water stains.

Around her, Kiyoi Ai silently read the envelope, sobbing and crying incessantly.

Lan looked at the words above, her eyes red.

"Thank you, thank you, Xiaoyuan."

"Although we are not related by blood, we are already family."

"I will continue to help you realize your dreams."

Kiyoshi Gen was well aware of the enormous impact his death would have.

To mitigate the impact, he wrote down everything he could think of on the letter paper.

Aside from those who were emotionally close to him, whose letters contained numerous candid confessions, the letters to others generally contained serious content such as work, ideals, and goals.

Children like Liu Huo, Bai Miao, and Feng Sha received blessings and encouragement.

Madara Uchiha picked up the envelope, slowly opened it, and took out the letter inside.

The way he was addressed at the beginning surprised him.

[To my dearest friend Ban.]

They've become best friends!

Madara Uchiha clenched his fist, a flame rising within him, and his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan emitted a terrifying pressure.

He has few friends.

If someone is so audacious as to kill their friend, they should be prepared to live in the shadows for the rest of their life!

If Kiyoi Gen were still alive, he would definitely see Madara's favorability towards him officially cross the threshold of ninety.

This means that Madara has truly come to regard Gen as his best friend.

If you're seeing this letter, it means I'm already dead.

"Then you should have heard my request on the recorder."

Ban continued reading.

He's starting to dislike Yuan's incredibly prescient premonitions.

He clearly knew he was going to die, but he never told him!

He's clearly just a weak guy with barely any stamina!

Don't let my request bother you too much.

The person I know, Ban, is someone who steadfastly does what he believes is right.

Upon seeing this, Ban's lips curled into a slight smile.

Receiving praise at this moment eased his inner sadness a little.

Please, you have two reasons.

[Firstly, because your strength is unparalleled in the ninja world, enabling you to protect Hatsuhi Village, which I spent most of my life building.]

Secondly, we share common ideals and goals; we both want to achieve world peace.

[But I want to take the path of unifying the world, while you, Madara, seem to have other ideas.]

Madara Uchiha gripped the letter tightly, recalling every moment he had spent here.

His willingness to stay in Churi Village also stems from his trust in Yuan, who believes he will fulfill his promise and bring peace to the world through unification.

After all, his initial idea was to use absolute power to intimidate the entire ninja world in order to achieve peace.

However, due to the ideological conflict between Hashirama and him, he was unable to put this idea into practice.

During his time in Churi Village, he saw a possibility, a possibility that Yuan showed him.

When the whole world is unified, there will be no more wars.

It was because he subconsciously agreed with Gen's idea that he followed his advice to stay in Hatsuhi Village, waiting for a while before dueling with Hashirama and exploring the contents of the Uchiha Stone Tablet.

[Ban, regardless of whether we choose the same methods, I believe our original intentions are the same.]

Pursuing one's ideals alone is too arduous and exhausting.

Trying to trust others will make the process easier.

[Ban, as a friend, I really don't want you to be in your seventies or eighties without a wife or partner.]

Isn't that pathetic of you?

It's none of your business!

Madara felt a surge of resentment, and then he thought of how Hashirama had been teasing him about this for many years after getting married and having children.

Judging from Yuan's previous state, he really could fulfill his wish of finding several wives.

That's even worse than Hashirama!
