Just as he was observing his Sharingan, two members of the Uchiha clan knocked on his door.
"Who is it that comes to see me at this hour?" Tian Qi opened the door and saw two Uchiha ninjas.
When Tianqi opened the door, the two Uchiha ninjas looked at him and spoke.
"Uchiha Tenchi, the clan leader wants to see you. Please come with us," said a young ninja who looked to be in his twenties.
"No problem, let's go." Tian Qi nodded and followed them. He wanted to see what the current clan leader was up to.
"Tianqi, I heard that the Second Hokage lifted the restrictions on you? And you even awakened the Sharingan, is that true?"
Inside the guard unit, Uchiha Kiyoyo, the head of the unit, carefully scrutinized him.
"Clan Chief, you summoned me here so late at night, you didn't just want to know about these things, did you?" Tian Qi asked, squinting his eyes.
"Of course not. Tianqi, you are a member of my Uchiha clan and a former young clan leader. As the clan leader, of course I have to care about my clan members."
Hearing this, Tianqi secretly scoffed. What was he doing all those years ago, saying such things now? He was afraid of Tobirama Senju. Now that he's heard I've lifted the restrictions, he wants to win me over. Dream on! However, he didn't show it and just silently activated his Sharingan.
"Two tomoe?" Looking into Tianqi's eyes, Uchiha Qingyang gasped, shocked. At the age of ten, without any guidance, he actually possessed a two-tomoe Sharingan. He had only heard that he had a one-tomoe Sharingan before, and it had evolved again in just a few days.
Although his strength is only at the genin level, that's because he had no one to teach him. Now that the restrictions are lifted, his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. As expected of Madara's son, his talent is in no way inferior to Madara's.
The Second Hokage is increasingly turning his back on the Uchiha clan. Although Kagami has become the Second Hokage's apprentice, that's far from enough. As long as he can use Tianqi to win over Madara's die-hard followers, and with Tianqi's strength, he will definitely have enough influence in Konoha.
“Tianqi, I know you have grievances against the clan. You have indeed suffered these years, losing your position as the young clan leader and living in poverty. But you really have no choice but to face the second generation of the clan.”
“Since your father’s defection, there has been no one in the clan who can rival the Second Hokage, so we have no choice but to compromise,” Uchiha Kiyoyo said, directly appealing to emotions.
"Oh, clan leader, I don't know what you're trying to say," Tianqi said, pretending not to know that Uchiha Qingyang wanted to win him over.
"Tianqi, I want to say that now that the Second Hokage has lifted the restrictions on you, I also hope that you can return to the Uchiha clan. After all, we are our own people. Even if we treat you badly, it's still better than dealing with outsiders, isn't it?"
"From now on, if there's anything you don't know, you can come and ask me for help. I can teach you any ninjutsu you want to learn anytime. Of course, if you're strong enough, restoring your status as the young clan leader isn't out of the question."
Listening to Uchiha Kiyoyo paint a rosy picture for him, Tianqi simply nodded silently and walked out.
"Restore my status as the young clan leader? Uchiha Qingyang, do you really think I'm a child? You're just making empty promises. You old fox, you've got the wrong person." Tianqi muttered under his breath after leaving the house, and then walked back towards his home.
"Aren't you tired of following me for so long?"
As soon as Tianqi left the guard post, he noticed a sense of being watched from behind, just like the feeling he used to have when the secret police were watching him.
call out!
As soon as Tian Qi finished speaking, a masked ninja appeared in front of him.
"Uchiha Tenchi, the Grand Elder wants to see you. Come with me."
Listening to the masked ninja's words, Tian Qi narrowed his eyes. Today is really interesting. Senju Tobirama lifted my restrictions, first the clan leader summoned me, and then the martial arts faction's elder summoned me. Interesting, very interesting.
"If the Grand Elder summons us, then let's go," Tianqi said to the masked ninja.
The masked ninja was taken aback by Tian Qi's straightforwardness. He thought it would take some time, but he didn't expect it to be so quick. Seeing that Tian Qi was so agreeable, he didn't say anything more, turned around and left first. Tian Qi followed the masked ninja.
Soon he followed the masked ninja to the outskirts of the Uchiha clan. The edge of his residence was quite close to this outskirts.
A few minutes later, Tianqi followed the masked ninja to a courtyard. He pushed open the door and went inside, where he saw an old man sitting quietly in the middle of the courtyard.
"Elder, the person has been brought."
"Okay, I understand. You may leave now."
After the ninja left, the elder also spoke up, "You must be Uchiha Tenki, come and sit down."
"Hmm," Tianqi didn't say much and sat down directly opposite the Grand Elder.
“You and your father are really alike,” the elder said, looking at Tianqi. It was as if he had returned to the time when Ban was still alive, with the same unruly demeanor and the same long hair.
Tianqi rarely styles his hair; he just lets it fall back. He already looks like Madara, and with his hair styled like that, he looks even more like him, which makes Tobirama dislike him even more.
"Elder, it's getting late. Just say what you need to say. I have things to do tomorrow," Tian Qi said casually. It was indeed late, and he had to accept a mission tomorrow. If he kept delaying, he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Tianqi spoke so directly only because the other party was a staunch supporter of his father. If it were Uchiha Qingyang, Tianqi would definitely not dare to say such a thing. He is currently only a genin and his strength is not enough, so it is better for him to be a little more cautious for the time being.
Hearing Tianqi say this, the Grand Elder didn't mind. He treated Tianqi the same way he treated Madara. He liked being straightforward. He then got up and knelt down in front of Tianqi.
"Young clan leader, because of the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, I have not been able to take good care of you all these years, and you have suffered so much for nothing. I am sorry and I have failed Lord Madara's trust in me."
"Elder, what are you doing?" Tianqi quickly helped the elder up.
It has to be said that the First Elder's sincerity was far greater than that of Uchiha Kiyo. Not only did he acknowledge his status as the young clan leader, but he also knelt down before him, showing his utmost sincerity. It's true that there's no harm without comparison.
"Young clan leader, please come with me." Soon, the elder led Tianqi to a basement, which was filled with ninjutsu scrolls and money.
"This, this is?" Tian Qi looked at the Grand Elder with a blank expression as he saw so many ninjutsu and money.
"Now that Tobirama Senju has lifted the restrictions on you, young clan leader, our martial arts faction will do its best to train you. You can learn any ninjutsu you want. As long as you are strong enough, all of us more than a hundred people will listen to you."
"If you just say the word and we betray Konoha, we will resolutely follow you."
Upon hearing this, Tianqi broke out in a cold sweat and quickly stopped the Grand Elder from continuing.
"Elder, these are things we shouldn't say carelessly. As long as Konoha hasn't wronged us, we shouldn't have these thoughts. Besides, it's too early to talk about these things now. Ideas without strength are just empty talk."
"As for the young clan leader, stop calling him that from now on; it's all in the past."
The elder looked at Tianqi with curiosity as he listened to what Tianqi said. Tianqi's words did not sound like those of a ten-year-old child at all, and it was clear that he was testing Tianqi.
A normal ten-year-old would have gotten carried away after hearing these words, but I didn't expect Tianqi to be so calm and thoughtful.
