The allied ninjas retreated twenty miles and set up makeshift tents to rest.
The five Kage and many other experts gathered again to discuss strategies for dealing with Uchiha Tenchi. After three hours of discussion, everyone left looking dejected, clearly having failed to come up with any good strategies.
After the discussion, Danzo held a small meeting with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and also called Orochimaru over. No one knows what the three discussed, only that Orochimaru left with an excited expression.
Tianqi gathered his clansmen together and said, “I am very happy to see that none of you have retreated today. Our ability to firmly suppress the allied ninjas today is inseparable from everyone’s efforts. I am proud to have clansmen like you.”
"Uchiha! Uchiha! Uchiha!" everyone shouted in unison.
Tianqi reached out and pressed down, and everyone immediately fell silent, all looking at Tianqi.
"Today's victory is just a minor one. The Allied Shinobi Forces haven't used their trump cards yet. I have an important announcement to make to everyone, so listen carefully."
They all looked at Tianqi with utmost seriousness, awaiting his announcement. They all knew that if Tianqi were to announce something at this moment, it must be extremely important.
"The Allied Shinobi Forces far outnumber us. If this drags on, and they find a way to counter the Tailed Beasts' chakra, we will be defeated."
"So I've made a last-minute decision: I'll go all out as soon as the battle starts tomorrow. I'll force you into tailed beast form, instantly crush the Allied Forces, force out the Five Great Nations' backup plans, and end this battle completely. Does anyone have any different opinions?" After saying that, Tianqi scanned the crowd.
"No objections!"
Without hesitation, everyone said they had no objections. They had repelled 100,000 ninjas on the first day, a feat they had never even dared to dream of before. What objections could they possibly have?
"Very good! Just a reminder that tailed beast transformation does cause harm to the body, but don't worry, it's not a big deal. It will only burn your skin a little, and you'll be fine after resting for a while. You can rest assured." Tianqi explained the damage caused by tailed beast transformation to everyone.
No one spoke; a minor burn was nothing compared to the victory in the battle.
Seeing that no one cared about the injury, Tian Qi nodded and continued, "Next is the last thing. Uchiha Zhan, Uchiha Feng, Uchiha Gao Li, Uchiha Yu Ming, and Uchiha Yue, please step forward."
The five people walked out with puzzled expressions, wondering why Tianqi had called them out.
"Zhan, Feng, Gao Li, Yu Ming, Yue, can you really put my mind at ease?" Tian Qi said meaningfully, looking at the five of them.
The five people exchanged glances. Although they didn't understand why Tianqi would ask such a question, they still acted accordingly.
"We are willing to die for our clan leader!" With that, the five of them knelt down in front of Tian Qi.
Tian Qi carefully examined the five people kneeling before him and nodded in satisfaction. "The five of you look up into my eyes," he said, instantly activating his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
With the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan exerting a powerful suppressive force on ordinary Sharingan, all forty people unconsciously awakened their Sharingan.
The five people kneeling in front all raised their heads and looked at Tianqi's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
Tianqi's Eternal Eye power erupted, aimed at the five people kneeling on the ground, and five beams of blue eye power shot out from Tianqi's eyes, directly entering the left eyes of the five people.
The five people's three-tomoe Sharingan eyes in their left eyes began to spin rapidly, faster and faster, until they finally turned into the same Eternal Kaleidoscope pattern as Tianqi.
All five of them felt a powerful force in their left eyes. They looked at Tianqi with puzzlement, not understanding why Tianqi would transfer such a strong power to them.
Tianqi didn't speak, but looked at Zhan in the middle. He aimed his hands at Zhan, and a green chakra appeared in his hands and rushed towards Zhan. Instantly, Zhan was enveloped by the green chakra, and his feet slowly left the ground. He flew up.
"This! This is!" Zhan stared in shock at his body, which was enveloped in green chakra.
He could feel the cells in his body slowly becoming more active, and a continuous stream of power was surging out of his body, causing his strength to increase rapidly.
His strength progressed from Elite Jonin to Quasi-Kage to Kage to Super Kage before finally stopping at the Super Kage level.
Then Zhan felt a sharp pain in his eyes. He unconsciously looked into Tian Qi's eyes, and their eyes met. Tian Qi stared at Zhan with wide eyes and exclaimed, "Ha!!!"
"Ah!!!" Zhan's three-tomoe Sharingan began to spin rapidly, and a wave of pain washed over him, causing him to cry out uncontrollably. As the pain intensified, the pattern in Zhan's eyes became exactly the same as Tian Qi's.
Suddenly, Tianqi stopped the green chakra output, plopped down in a chair, and gasped for breath, "Huff huff huff, finally finished."
"Clan leader!!!" Everyone rushed over when they saw Tianqi suddenly slump in the chair.
"Huff, huff, I'm fine, get down and kneel down!" Tianqi roared, panting.
"Tianqi, why did you do this?" Everyone else knelt down, except for Zhan, who was still concerned about Tianqi.
"Chu Zhan, Hu You kneel down too!" Tian Qi was panting, and fine sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
Seeing how weak Zhan Tianqi was, he quickly knelt down as well.
"Hoo, you five listen up! I've lent you the power of the Eternal Kaleidoscope. If I lose tomorrow, don't worry about me. Just activate the power of the Kamui Space in your left eye and leave with your respective teams. This power can only be used once, so cherish it! Hoo hoo hoo!" Tian Qi said, still panting.
"Why is the clan leader suddenly doing this? We can't possibly lose! We certainly can't abandon you!" Yu Ming didn't understand why Tian Qi was doing this, and he directly stated that he would not abandon Tian Qi.
"Yes, yes, clan leader, we will not lose, and we will not abandon you," the others shouted.
"Phew, don't get excited. This is just a protective tactic. If I win, you won't need to use this power. If I lose, I hope you won't hesitate to activate this power and leave without worrying about me. Can you do that?" Tian Qi's face also began to turn pale.
"No! Chieftain, we will not agree to this! We cannot abandon you!"
"That's right, Chieftain. If we lose, we'll share the burden. We'd rather die than leave you."
"We celebrate together when we win! We shoulder the burden together when we lose! Chieftain, we cannot accept this order!"
"Insolence!!! Who is the clan leader, you or me? If you still acknowledge me as the clan leader, then obey my orders unconditionally. If you disobey my orders, then you do not acknowledge me as the clan leader! Then get out of here now! I have no need for disobedient clansmen!" Tian Qi forced himself to stand up and slammed his hand on the table in front of him, looking angrily at the clansmen kneeling below.
