Just as my friend and I were fooling around in the ward, Ban Ye suddenly arrived. He truly lived up to his legendary status.

It appeared without a sound, saw my status, and even surprisingly mocked me.

He said, "Oh, I thought you were about to collapse, so I sped up a bit. I wouldn't have been in such a hurry if I'd known you were alright."

I was startled by what Madara said, and I retorted in disbelief, "Ah, Madara, you actually joked."

Madara didn't reply, he just rolled his eyes, and I noticed that too.

Anything I summon, regardless of its original personality, will be influenced by me.

There are definitely ways in which I'm becoming more and more like myself: Aizen is cunning and always playing pranks, while Madara has a sharp tongue and is always arguing with people.

Xuan Jian is lazy and doesn't care about anything other than practicing martial arts. These flaws weren't present in the original anime.

They probably all developed these little quirks because of me; they're quite adorable and make them feel more like real people now.

I noticed that Madara wasn't talking back, and I wasn't teasing him anymore. If I really pushed him too far, it would be troublesome; he's such a proud and stubborn guy, hard to appease.

She immediately changed the subject, saying, "How are those two girls doing? Where are they placed?"

We'll go check them out in a bit. Anyone who can dodge your Sharingan genjutsu is no ordinary person.

After hearing my words, Madara abandoned his arrogance and nodded very seriously.

In response, "That's for sure. The two of them must be incredibly capable to have evaded my illusion."

You got a great deal again this time.

I pursed my lips and replied, "I discovered this through careful observation, not by chance."

Madara didn't hold it against me; he just gave a haughty snort.

Wen Ge simply watched the whole thing and didn't participate in our interaction.

But you could tell he envied the way we got along; it was so natural, without any pressure or repression.

After exchanging a few more words with Madara, he was about to go check on the two new girls, but Madara's tsundere tendencies kicked in.

Suddenly, she snorted and turned her head away, ignoring what I was saying.

As soon as I saw it, I went straight up to him without saying a word, grabbed his leg and begged for mercy, saying, "Master Madara, I was wrong. You are so magnanimous, how could you hold a grudge against a child like me?"

The soldier next to us was startled, and then looked at the two of us with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

Madara got what he wanted, so he stopped making things difficult for me.

I used the Shadow Clone Technique, combined with the Transformation Technique, to create another version of myself.

And so, right in front of Wen Bing, I activated Life Return, turning myself into adult mode.

Wen Ge was watching from the side, completely dumbfounded, and then sent it to Wen Ge.

A three-eyed demon mask, and the Blazing Sun Blade also has a dedicated scabbard.

I'll leave my clone behind to deal with my family, then I can go out and have some fun again.

Following Madara, we arrived at the place where the two women were settled. Looking at the two women before us...

The younger girl is not Chinese; she must be from Russia.

At such a young age, she's already a potential scourge to the nation. She's looking at me in surprise, clearly not recognizing me.

But the older one had a strange expression; he just smiled and greeted me.

They seemed to know me quite well, so I asked, somewhat puzzled, "You know me?"

My question surprised the girl, who countered, "Didn't we meet during the day? Didn't you ask the uncle to bring us here?"

As she spoke, she opened her big, innocent eyes and looked at me.

I was quite surprised by what the girl said. How exactly did she recognize people?

My return to life truly meant restoring my body to the state of an eighteen-year-old.

It's not fake, so some investigative techniques are useless, but the girl's abilities...

It was clearly not a detective skill; she gave the impression that she knew it very naturally.
