The wooden spikes pierced the leg of the Iwa ninja captain, absorbing his chakra and growing outwards, with five spikes protruding from his leg.
"Ah!!!" A sharp, piercing pain shot through him, and he stopped running abruptly. Without hesitation, the Iwa ninja captain used a kunai to sever his entire leg.
"Ah!!" he cried out, his face pale as he cut off his leg, and continued to move slowly forward.
The Uchiha members were secretly impressed by what they saw. "He cut off his injured leg without hesitation. What a strong will!"
Tianqi charged up and leaped directly in front of him. Looking at the Iwa ninja who was trying to survive with a severed arm, Tianqi was very impressed.
"You managed to cut off your own leg in an instant, that's impressive, I have high hopes for you," Tianqi said with admiration.
"Hmph! Kill me if you want, stop trying to disgust me. If I even flinch, I'm not a Shinobi," he sneered at Uchiha Tenki, who was blocking his way. Since he couldn't escape anyway, he might as well be tough and preserve his last bit of dignity.
Looking at the Iwa ninja with a look of determination to die, Tian Qi laughed and said, "Hahaha, if I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have attacked your legs just now. I'm going to let you go now."
"Let me go? What are you up to now?" Upon hearing Uchiha Tenki say he would let him go, his first reaction was that there was a conspiracy.
Before Tianqi could speak, the Uchiha members surrounded him. Zhan immediately said, "Tianqi can't be let go. He'll leave today, but he'll definitely bring more people next time." The others echoed, "Yes, yes, we can't let him go."
"Uh!" Tianqi raised his hand to signal everyone to shut up, then looked at the Iwa ninja and said, "I'm letting you go for no other reason than that you deliver a message to Onoki of the Two Scales."
"Pass on a message to the Tsuchikage? What message?" Hearing that he was to pass on a message to the Tsuchikage, he felt that Uchiha Tenki was really going to let him go. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Tenki's next sentence made him drop his jaw in shock.
"I asked you to pass on a message to him: I, Uchiha Tianqi, will launch the Second Shinobi World War against the four great nations of Earth, Wind, Water, and Lightning in a month. I want to become the second God of Shinobi after the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and I want to reclaim the glory of the Uchiha!" Tianqi said excitedly.
"Tianqi, are you crazy! What nonsense are you spouting? How dare you launch a second Shinobi World War against the Four Great Nations?" Zhan shouted as he approached Tianqi after hearing his words. The other Uchiha members stared at Tianqi in shock, all thinking he had gone mad.
"Heh, I don't need to say more, do I? Even your own subordinates don't believe you, so don't make jokes like this." The Iwa ninja captain sneered, clearly not believing Uchiha Tenki's words either.
"I, Uchiha Tenchi, keep my word and never joke about such things. I'll give you a month to prepare. In a month, on this border, I, Uchiha Tenchi, will lead my clan in a full-scale clash with you."
"Don't underestimate me and cause your entire army to be wiped out. I won't hold back at all. Go and inform your village." Tian Qi ignored Zhan and squatted down to use his palm technique to heal the Iwa ninja captain's leg. After healing him, he was about to let him go.
"Are you really going to wage war against us?" Seeing that Uchiha Tenki didn't seem to be joking, he asked seriously.
"Stop talking nonsense. I said war and I mean war. Leave the Sharingan here and get out of here!" Tianqi said, then turned and walked towards the camp.
"Uchiha Tenchi, you will definitely regret your decision today!" After throwing the glass bottle containing the Sharingan to the crowd, the Iwa ninja captain left.
The group took the Sharingan glass bottle and immediately followed Zhan Chong towards the camp. Upon entering the camp, they saw Tian Qi sitting in his seat with his eyes closed.
"Bang! Tianqi, what are you thinking? Why do you suddenly want to wage war against the four great nations?" Uchiha Sen slammed the glass bottle containing the Sharingan onto the table and said angrily.
Tianqi opened his eyes and slowly said, "Don't say anything more about the battle. If you're a brother, just support me and that's enough."
"But you have to give me a reason. It's hard for me to handle this if you're completely clueless," Zhan said, his tone softening as Tianqi spoke.
"Alright, then let me tell you. This time I launched this war, firstly for myself and secondly for the entire Uchiha clan. I want to regain the status of the Uchiha clan during the Warring States period. This war will make me a god and lay a strong foundation for future generations," Tian Qi said domineeringly.
“This… but we only have a few people in our martial faction. Even if we bring in the moderate faction, do we really have the strength to fight against the four great ninja villages? Isn’t it too early to start a war now?” Zhan hesitated for a moment before speaking after seeing Tianqi say this.
"Don't worry, Zhan. This time I'm not bringing those cowardly moderates. I already have a plan to deal with the major ninja villages," Tianqi patted Zhan on the shoulder and turned to the others.
"You don't need to worry. I only do things when I'm absolutely certain of success. I have a 90% chance of winning this battle. Rather than hiding in Konoha every day, I might as well take a gamble."
Although Tianqi said there was a 90% chance of success, they were still worried. After all, those were the four great ninja villages. Seeing that everyone was still worried, Zhan sighed and said, "Tianqi, tell us your plan. Otherwise, no one will have any confidence."
"Alright, since that's the case, everyone come out with me." After saying that, Tianqi walked out directly, and everyone followed him out.
Upon arriving at the open space, Tian Qi addressed the crowd directly: "Since none of you are confident about this war, I'll show you my plan now. Who's willing to come out and give it a try?"
Everyone looked left and right, wondering what Tianqi was up to. For a moment, no one stepped forward. Seeing this, Tianqi mocked, "The war hasn't even started yet, and you're all so cowardly. Are you even men of the Uchiha clan? If not, get out of here now. I can't bear the shame."
Seeing how cowardly everyone was, Tianqi felt that leading them into battle was a mistake.
"Tianqi, how about I do it?" Zhan stepped forward when he saw that Tianqi was angry.
"Lord Tianqi, I'm here! I believe in you!" Before Tianqi could speak, an Uchiha man stepped forward.
Tian Qi saw that someone else had stepped forward besides Zhan. He looked closely and exclaimed, "It's him!" Indeed, the person who stepped forward was the ninja who had led the way. His strength was the weakest among the group, which was why he had become the guide.
"Very good! This is how a man of the Uchiha clan should be. What's your name?" Tianqi looked at the ninja leading the way with admiration. His act of stepping forward had already defeated many others.
