Everyone stared wide-eyed at Tianqi. To joke around in this kind of situation? He must be a fool.
"Hmph, look at the expressions on your men's faces. It's obvious that even they don't believe you. Do you think I would?" Haneda Zaemon sneered.
“They will definitely believe me unconditionally. What I’m about to say, I’m just afraid you won’t believe it,” Tianqi said, throwing down the tourism flag in his hand and his expression turning serious.
"Whether I believe you or not depends on what you say next. Are you telling the truth? I will naturally believe the truth, but I don't think you need to say anything false." Haneda Zaemon crossed his arms and looked at Tian Qi. He wanted to see what Tian Qi would say.
"Then listen carefully. I am now officially informing your Sand Village that one month from now, on the northern border of the Land of Fire, I, Uchiha Tenchi, will lead my clan to launch a war against the four great nations of Wind, Earth, Water, and Lightning. The other three nations have already accepted, and now only your Land of Wind is left. Do you dare to accept my declaration of war?" Tenchi looked around and said to the Sand Village ninja.
Before Haneda Zaemon could speak, his subordinate Rasa interrupted, "You brat, how dare you spout such nonsense! Do you think you can challenge the Four Great Nations just because you have the title of Shura? I think you're a madman!" They had heard of the name Tianqi Shura, but they didn't believe that someone with that title would dare to challenge the Four Great Nations.
Chiyo and the others were about to speak when Haneda Saemon interrupted them, saying, "Rasa, you guys shouldn't speak yet."
Then he looked at Tianqi with a serious expression. "Uchiha Tianqi, are you sure you're not joking? Are you really going to start a war with the four great nations? What about the Land of Fire? As far as I know, the Uchiha clan seems to belong to Konoha, right?" Haneda Zaemon knew that starting a war was not something to joke about. He just wanted to know more information so he could plan the next steps.
"Lord Third Generation, you believe what he said?" Chiyo and the others looked at Haneda Saemon in shock, not understanding why he would believe such nonsense.
"Uchiha Tenki, answer my question!" Haneda Zaemon ignored Chiyo and the others and stared at Tenki.
"Hahaha, as expected of the Third Kazekage, Haneda Zaemon, who is known as the strongest in history, your vision is far greater than that of the Kage of the other major nations. I can tell you very clearly that this is no joke."
"Moreover, our Uchiha clan does not belong to anyone; we belong only to ourselves. As for Konoha in the Land of Fire, although I have not declared war on them, if they do not wish to join us, I will show no mercy." As he said this, the murderous intent in Tian Qi's eyes was directly exposed.
Looking at Uchiha Tenki, whose murderous aura was radiating from him, Haneda Saemon, who hadn't quite believed it before, now completely believed the talk of war. He said, "I believe you now, but I don't understand why you, who already have the name of Asura, would still want to wage war against the four great nations. Where does your confidence come from?"
"Heh, what is the name of Asura? I, Uchiha Tenchi, will become the God of Shinobi, and from now on become the nightmare of your great nations, so that the light of Uchiha will shine on this land once again."
"As for where my confidence comes from, why don't you try it?" Tian Qi smiled wickedly.
"There's no need to try. The other major powers have all agreed, which clearly shows that your strength has been recognized by them. It would be foolish for me to try again. Today, as long as your men can escape the quicksand on their own, you can leave," said Haneda Saemon.
“Lord Kazekage, they only have so few people now, and they’re trapped. Why should I let them go? It would be better to wipe them out directly. Maybe we can even avoid a war.” Chiyo finally stood up when she heard that they were to be let go, and Ebizo and the others nodded in agreement.
“I know what you’re saying, but I think he can challenge the four great nations, so he must have more than just this much ability. The quicksand is nothing to you, right? Uchiha Tenki.” After saying this, Haneda Saemon looked at Tenki.
He wanted to see how they would get out of the quicksand without anyone's help. If they couldn't even solve this problem, then the war would truly be a joke.
"Heh, you say you'll let us leave once we're out of the quicksand? That sounds so grating to me. Do we need you to let us leave?!"
"You think you can look down on us if we don't show you? Today we'll teach you a lesson and show you that you're nothing."
"Brothers, show your strength and give them a good slap in the face. Don't let me down!" Tian Qi waved to the nine people trapped in quicksand and directly activated the tailed beast power within them.
Immediately, a burning sensation spread through them, and a look of pain appeared on their faces.
Haneda Zaemon watched the nine people in the quicksand with great interest; he wanted to see what these people were capable of.
"Roar!!" With a roar, the group instantly entered Tailed Beast Chakra Mode, unleashing powerful energy that propelled them out of the quicksand. The recoil lifted them into the air.
"Wow!!! Forcibly breaking free from the shackles of quicksand, what domineering power!" The Sand Ninja looked at Kyuujou, who had jumped into the air.
"Not good! Defend quickly!" Haneda Zaemon shouted, immediately using his ninjutsu to raise a huge wall of sand and iron. The others also felt the need to use defensive ninjutsu, because they had already seen the nine people who had jumped into the air gather energy and attack them.
"Heh, give them a good beating with Tailed Beast Ball Barrage, a bunch of snobbish bastards who look down on people," Tianqi said disdainfully.
As Tianqi spoke, the group in mid-air successfully condensed their Tailed Beast Balls. They launched the balls as they descended, whoosh! whoosh! whoosh!
"Bang!" The Little Tailed Beast Ball broke through their defenses with a single blow, and everyone scattered in all directions, trying their best to dodge.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" One Tailed Beast Ball after another fell and exploded, kicking up clouds of yellow sand. Tian Qi looked at the Sand Ninja and frowned. "So many Tailed Beast Balls fell, yet they only took the lives of a few people. This is not a good thing."
The Sand Ninja here are the true elites of the Sand Village, all Jonin. Their rich experience and powerful strength mean that although they cannot withstand a Tailed Beast Ball head-on, they can easily dodge it. Except for some weaker and slower-reacting individuals, the others are perfectly fine.
The nine people landed in the air and stopped next to Tianqi. Zhan said, "Tianqi's prepared Sand Ninja are indeed not easy to deal with. This is not good for us. Why don't we retreat first?"
"What retreat? Do you think I didn't see that they are all elites? I'm going to fight the elites. What's the point of bullying those junior ninjas?"
"You better get into character and stop just watching the show," Tian Qi glared at Zhan.
