"Tch, what are you pretending to be an expert for!" Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Tianqi could only refrain from making a fool of himself.
After the group had traveled another ten kilometers or so, Tianqi and Danzo suddenly stopped. Tianqi glanced at the nearby woods and said calmly, "Heh, this is obviously coming for you. It seems you, Danzo, have quite a few enemies!"
"They're just ordinary rotten fish and shrimp. They dare to come here? They're practically asking for death!" Danzo glanced at the nearby woods with a disdainful look.
"They're really just lousy fish. It would be better if they had some real strength, but these weaklings are really boring and just a waste of my time!" With that, Tian Qi activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.
"Fire Release - Kagutsuchi!" Instantly, several streaks of Amaterasu black flame transformed into sharp arrows and shot towards the trees on both sides.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!..." Dozens of screams rang out as the enemies hiding nearby were eliminated.
"With this kind of strength, you dare to lie in ambush? Shameful. Hey you two, go and see who dares to lie in ambush here?" Tian Qi pointed to the woods on both sides and said.
Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu glanced at Danzo, and only after Danzo nodded did they run into the woods on either side to investigate.
However, after being struck by Amaterasu's flames, there was no body left. The two only found a mask in the forest, but they recognized who the other person was through this special mask. The two immediately took the mask and went out.
"This peculiar mask must be a remnant of the Hannya clan's secret agents from the Forest Kingdom that we assassinated before!"
"They really do love to find loopholes, just like always!"
"The troubles have been endless since we moved from the shadows to the light!"
"In the world of ninja training, it is an honor to be unknown, but only by controlling both the light and the dark can the country and the village be more stable. If this meeting is successful, my reputation as Hokage will be greatly enhanced. At that time, those Jonin will have no choice but to acknowledge me as Hokage. My era is finally about to begin!"
"Alright, alright, stop with the nonsense and let's get going!" Seeing that Danzo was still going on and on, Tianqi urged him on.
Danzo and his two companions have no future, so talking about the future now is meaningless and just a waste of breath.
Tianqi and his companions made their way through the land, stopping and starting along the way. Finally, after six days, they entered the territory of the Land of Iron and gradually approached the agreed-upon location. The Land of Iron was a country without ninjas and was also recognized as a neutral country by the major powers. It was snowing all year round and the climate was very cold, so no major power would want to come here.
"Damn! No wonder this is a neutral country. With this kind of weather, nobody would want to be here!" Tian Qi muttered to himself as he looked around at the snow-covered landscape.
"Among the major powers, only Konoha has the best temperature and environment and fertile land. That's why there were several Shinobi World Wars before!" Danzo said casually. He also disliked this cold place.
However, just then, the cry of an eagle suddenly rang out, and the group immediately stopped and looked over. An eagle drawn using a special ninja technique was flying towards them.
"Oh, it's a message from Sai!" Yamanaka Fu recognized Sai's voice at a glance.
Danzo immediately took out a blank scroll, and the eagle flew onto the scroll and transformed into rows of text.
Danzo glanced at the information and then expressionlessly put away the scroll.
"It was your undercover agent who sent the message, wasn't it? Tell me!" Tian Qi asked calmly.
"It's just a small matter. The Nine-Tails kid, Kakashi, and Tenzo simply followed the three Cloud Ninja out of Konoha!"
"Oh, so it's them!" Upon hearing that Naruto and his group had arrived, Tianqi slowly closed his eyes and released his senses. Suddenly, he sensed a large group of people, including Sasuke and his group, Naruto and his group, Zetsu and Obito, as well as the other four Kage.
"Hehe, things are getting interesting. Those who were supposed to come have come, and those who weren't supposed to have come have also come. This is going to be a good show!" Tian Qi smiled slightly.
"It seems you've sensed people. Who's here?" Danzo asked calmly.
"Hehe, I won't tell you who it is yet, I'll keep it a secret. You'll find out when we get there!"
"Hmph! Fine, don't tell me then!"
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of Danzo and his companions, they continued towards their destination. Tianqi watched their retreating figures with a strange smile.
After traveling for about three more hours, Tianqi and Danzo and the other three finally arrived at their destination, the location of the meeting in the Land of Iron. General Mifune of the Land of Iron was also at the door to warmly welcome the newcomers.
"I have been waiting for you, Lord Hokage. I am Mifune, the Admiral of the Land of Iron!"
"It's been a long time, Mifune. I am the Hokage, Shimura Danzo!"
Although the two were old acquaintances, that was decades ago. Now that their statuses are different, they naturally reintroduced themselves to each other.
"My goodness, I'm not trying to be mean, but this place is really too cold. I really can't stand it if I stay here for too long!" Tianqi said casually, rubbing his hands together.
Mifune glanced at the young man standing next to Danzo and said calmly, "Go upstairs and have a cup of hot tea. The Kage have all arrived, so we can begin the talks soon!"
After the last Hokage arrived, Mifune led his men into the massive stone building, where the air seemed to warm up the moment they entered.
After turning two corners, Tianqi spotted Sasuke and his group hiding on a high place, but he silently chose to ignore them.
When Sasuke saw that his grandfather had also arrived, he was immediately taken aback. What was going on? Why was his grandfather coming with Danzo?
"So, Sasuke, do you want me to point out which one is Danzo?" Zetsu was a little surprised by Tianqi's arrival, but he still asked calmly.
"No need, I recognize that guy!" Sasuke had seen Danzo before and didn't need the Zetsuki Finger. What he was worried about now was his grandfather. His grandfather and Danzo seemed to have a good relationship, so it would probably be very difficult to eliminate Danzo now.
Perhaps sensing Sasuke's worry, Zetsu said calmly, "If you're worried about your grandfather, there's no need to. Given his personality, if he had to choose between you and Danzo, he would definitely choose you!"
Based on Tianqi's absolute understanding, he would definitely choose his family over his business partners without hesitation. In Tianqi's eyes, nothing is more important than family.
"You don't need to tell me that. I know Grandpa better than you what kind of person he is!" Sasuke wasn't worried that his grandfather would stop him; he just didn't know how to face his grandfather.
After Tianqi drank a couple of sips of hot tea to warm himself up, Mifune led Danzo and the other two to the meeting room, with Tianqi following at the very back.
