"Since that's the case, you can stay here for a while. You've really caused a lot of trouble this time. We need to close the door to appease the public. You stay here, I'm leaving." With that, Mito left.
"I see. Well then, Lord Mito, please take care." Seeing that he couldn't leave for the time being, Tianqi didn't insist.
After Mito left, Sarutobi and the others came in.
"Tianqi, are you alright?"
"Young clan leader, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Tsunade. Elder, why are you here too? You're so old, why are you running around?" He looked at the Elder with a serious expression. The Elder had indeed been very good to him over the years, but he was getting old and probably didn't have many years left to live.
"Young clan leader, you're in trouble. How can I stay at home in peace? I can't let down Lord Madara." No matter what Tianqi said, he couldn't let down Uchiha Madara.
"Alright, I'm fine. Elder, you should go back now. Don't run around if you don't have anything to do. Enjoy your retirement. And don't mention that person in front of me again." After Tianqi finished speaking, he turned to look at Sarutobi.
"You brat, the Elder was only doing this for your own good. We heard there was a fight in the prison and thought you were up to no good, so we rushed over. Turns out it was you who hit Danzo. How can you be so disobedient even in jail?"
He waved his hand and said, "I didn't want to hit him, but he was being a jerk, constantly mocking me and even trying to hit me. I couldn't just let him hit me, so I was forced to fight back."
"What! Danzo, that old devil, wanted to hit you? What right does he have? Sarutobi-sensei, you have to stand up for Tenki!" Tsunade was furious when she heard that Tenki had almost been beaten.
"Alright, Tianqi is fine now. I'll investigate Danzo's matter."
"Tianqi, you'll have to stay here and suffer for a while longer. Don't cause any trouble. We'll release you after we've paid the compensation to Yan Yin," he said slowly to Tianqi, afraid that Tianqi wouldn't be able to take it and would cause trouble again.
"I'll give them compensation. If they're not happy, they can come find me anytime. I'll beat them to a pulp. They can dream on about compensation!" Tian Qi said, waving his fist. He wasn't afraid at all. He'd just start a war if necessary. Who was afraid of who?
"Come on, you caused a scene in their village, so it's only right that you give them some compensation. Peace is hard-won. If they go too far, we won't tolerate them." At this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not old yet. He was impulsive and reckless, unlike his indecisive self in his old age.
"Alright, alright, you guys decide what to do. If war really breaks out, I'm confident I can completely annex the Land of Earth's territory to the Land of Fire," Tian Qi said confidently, and he certainly had the strength to do so.
"Alright, alright, you just stay here. I have a ton of pissed-off stuff to deal with, so I'm leaving now."
"Young clan leader, I'm leaving too."
Tianqi waved his hand and the two left, leaving only Tsunade and Tianqi in the cell.
"Tsunade, you should go back soon too. I'll be out in a while, and you can start practicing the ninjutsu I gave you during this time," he said gently, ruffling Tsunade's hair.
"Mmm..." Tsunade nodded, blushing, and ran out.
"Senju Uchiha... the combination of the two is quite something, things are getting more and more interesting." After watching Tsunade leave, he went back to lie down.
A few days later, with Mito's involvement, the higher-ups had no objections to the compensation issue, and the daimyo also gave Mito face and expressed his willingness to pay.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Sarutobi waved his hand and wrote a letter, then sent a small team with the letter and money to the Land of Earth.
Upon receiving the letter and money, Onoki flew into a rage.
Snap!
"Damn Konoha, damn Hiruzen Sarutobi! This little bit of money isn't even enough to repair a house, yet he dares to threaten me!" Onoki slammed his fist on the table in front of him, smashing it to pieces, and said angrily.
The high-ranking members of Iwagakure also picked up the letter from the ground and began to read it.
Your Excellency Tsuchikage, our village deeply regrets the attack on Iwagakure by our ninja. However, what has happened cannot be undone. Therefore, our village has decided to compensate your village with 30 million ryo for the purpose of repairing our houses. We hope your village will accept this offer.
Of course, we never provoke trouble. But if trouble comes, we are not afraid. We hope your village will consider this carefully.
After reading the letter, the higher-ups finally understood why Onoki was so angry.
"Lord Tsuchikage, our current strength is insufficient to defeat him. Let's hold back against Konoha's provocation for now, clench our fists, and wait until we are strong enough to get revenge," the high-ranking officials advised.
"I know about these things, I'm just upset. Damn Konoha, I'll remember this. You'll get what's coming to you later."
Unlike Onoki's anger, Tianqi was enjoying the food that Tsunade had brought him.
"Mmm, this food is much better than what they make in prison. I'm so tired of eating this prison food every day," Tianqi said, devouring the food that Tsunade had brought him.
"Just bear with it a little longer. Sarutobi-sensei has already sent the compensation. You'll be able to come out in a while." Tsunade smiled as she watched Tianqi devour his food. She had made all of this herself, and she was happy to see that Tianqi enjoyed it.
"Sent it over so quickly, how much did Brother Sarutobi pay?" Tianqi asked, his mouth full of food.
"Take your time eating. I'm not too sure either. I think I heard that Grandma Mito said they sent 30 million taels over." She really wasn't clear about the decisions made by the higher-ups.
“30 million taels? Hahaha, if we really sent 30 million taels, the Tsuchikage Onoki would probably be furious right now,” Tianqi said with a laugh.
Why do you say that?
"Haha, you don't know the extent of the damage I caused that day, plus the compensation for the injured, it would cost several hundred million. Brother Sarutobi's 30 million isn't even enough to repair the house."
"Hahaha, Iwagakure won't be able to cause any trouble for the next ten years or so," Tianqi said happily.
"I see. If that's the case, do you think the Tsuchikage would just let it go like that? If it were me, I definitely wouldn't do it for such a small amount of money," Tsunade said after thinking for a moment.
“He has no choice but to do it. The current Iwagakure is no match for Konoha. Its strength was already inferior to Konoha's, and my actions have made it even worse. Now, if Onoki wants to start a war with Konoha, he will only face certain death. He can only suffer in silence,” Tianqi explained.
"I see, it was for the village. Honestly, why did you have to cause trouble in Iwagakure? Now you're even going to jail."
“你不懂纲手，火之国的环境本来就比其他国家好，他们惦记火之国又不是一天两天了，与其等他们变强来攻打我们，还不如我提前削弱他们的实力，让他们没办法打呢，我这么做都是为了木叶为了火之国”天齐大义凛然的说道。
“是是是，你总有你的理由，我说不过你，赶紧吃，吃完我收盘子走了，过几天我要出去执行任务去了”她催促着天齐。
