Meanwhile, the White Zetsu who was showing Tianqi around the base was drooling over the food on the stone table, completely unaware that Madara was watching him.
Looking at Bai Jue's silly expression, it shouldn't be him talking badly about him. What exactly happened to Qi that day? Madara, who couldn't figure it out, didn't say anything. He silently picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of food, and started eating. But as soon as it entered his mouth, his face turned ashen.
Seeing Ban's expression, Tianqi also revealed an "I knew it" look. This is truly my beloved son! He actually poisoned his own son. Ban is a ruthless person. Tianqi was about to rebuke Ban, but Ban's next action stunned him.
Madara spat out the food, his face contorted with rage. He grabbed the White Zetsu and yelled, "Zetsu! This is the food you made? It's absolutely awful! Are you trying to kill me?"
The White Zetsu that Madara mentioned also looked completely innocent. "Lord Madara, you can't do this! I already told you before that I can't cook. You forced me to cook, and now you're blaming me for making it bad."
"You bastard, you dare to talk back? Believe me or not, I'll beat you up! What did I tell you before? I just asked you to make something edible. Have you even tasted this? Is this even fit for human consumption?!" Madara, holding the White Zetsu's body, launched another verbal attack.
"How is it not edible? Look, my clone seems to really enjoy eating it," Bai Jue said, pointing to his Bai Jue clone.
Madara looked in the direction the White Zetsu was pointing, and saw that the White Zetsu who had previously shown Tianqi around the base was now frantically devouring the food on the stone table.
While showing off his meal, Bai Jue said to Tian Qi, "Tian Qi, you should eat too. This family meal is really good. We can't waste food if Lord Ban doesn't know how to eat."
"You eat it yourself, no one will take it from you," Tianqi's lips twitched slightly. He had just tasted it himself, and the taste was absolutely awful. He realized that he had misunderstood his father earlier.
Tianqi looked at Madara and White Zetsu's true forms with a speechless expression, "Do you guys not eat normally? How did you manage to make such awful food?!"
Madara felt a little embarrassed after his son said that. He immediately gave White Zetsu a wink, and White Zetsu understood his meaning instantly. White Zetsu smiled and said, "Hehe, Tianqi, don't take it too seriously. Lord Madara has the energy supply of the Golem, so he doesn't need to eat. We White Zetsu can absorb natural energy, so we don't need to eat either. So you understand."
After hearing Bai Jue's explanation, Tian Qi's lips twitched again. "I understand your ass! So you're all a bunch of ruthless people who don't eat, and I'm the only special one?" Then Tian Qi rolled his eyes at them and said, "Where is your cooking place? Show me. Or I'll cook myself."
“No problem, it’s in a stone cave over there. I’ll take you there right away.” White Zetsu broke free from Madara’s restraints and eagerly became the pathfinder.
Watching Tianqi leave, Ban finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had wanted to show off his skills in front of his son, but he failed on his first try. It was a huge miscalculation. It was all Jue's fault. After this is over, I will definitely teach him a lesson.
White Zetsu was unaware that Madara was also plotting to teach him a lesson. At this moment, he brought Tianqi to the place where he was cooking. "This is where I cook. How is it?"
Looking at the messy stove, Tianqi was completely dumbfounded. What?! This is supposed to be a place for cooking? I'd believe it if you said it was a pigsty. "You're amazing!" Tianqi gave Bai Jue's true form a thumbs up.
The White Zetsu in its true form thought Tian Qi was praising him, and he immediately became smug. "That's right, don't you know who I am? I am the God of Cooking, Lord Zetsu. My dishes are famous among countless White Zetsu. It's just that Lord Madara doesn't know how to appreciate them. So, Tian Qi, do you want me, the God of Cooking, to teach you?"
"There's no need for that," Tian Qi said, speechless. He couldn't understand that Tian Qi was implying something about Bai Jue. "Jue, you can help me out."
"No problem, let me see how you did."
Tian Qi rolled his eyes at Bai Jue's true form, then ignored Bai Jue and started cooking. Soon, with Tian Qi's smooth and skillful operation, one dish after another, full of color, aroma and flavor, was made.
Seeing such delicious food, Tianqi picked up a piece of meat and tasted it. "Hmm, not bad, not bad, it still tastes the same. It seems my cooking skills haven't declined."
Seeing Tian Qi's expression of enjoyment, Bai Jue picked up a piece of meat and tasted it. "It's not that great. It tastes just so-so to me."
When Tian Qi heard what the White Zetsu said, he rolled his eyes again. "That just means that your White Zetsu have a different sense of taste than ordinary people. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and get these things out of here. I'm starving."
“You have our White Zetsu’s body now, how can you still be hungry?” White Zetsu’s original body had just finished speaking when Tian Qi glared at him fiercely. “Fine, fine, I won’t say anything more. I’ll have someone come and move it.”
With the help of the White Zetsu, all the dishes were quickly served. Madara looked at the sumptuous meal and couldn't wait to taste what his son had made for him. After taking a bite, Madara couldn't help but nod and say, "Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect you to have such skills. You're really something."
"Hehe, if I didn't have this skill, I would have starved to death in Konoha long ago. I'm not like you, who can go without eating," Tianqi said while eating his food, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Madara also learned about Tianqi's life as a child from White Zetsu, and then he cursed Senju Tobirama, "Damn Senju Tobirama, he took all the things I left for you, he's a real piece of work. I hope I never see him again, or I'll make him know how powerful I am."
"Stop talking nonsense. What's the point of saying these things now? They're all old stories from the past. I'm long gone," Tianqi said, seeing that Ban was trying to shift the blame again. He didn't want to expose him.
Seeing that his son didn't want to talk about this topic, Madara changed the subject, "When you were fighting before, I clearly sensed that you had destroyed the five great ninja villages, so why did you restore those villages and people in the end instead of wiping out all those ninjas?"
“Those people are innocent, there’s no need to kill them all. Besides, I’ve already achieved my goal of starting this war. Now that I’ve achieved my goal, those people are no longer important. Let them continue to develop on their own. Isn’t it interesting to watch them fight each other?” Tian Qi said indifferently.
