"I think you want to go out yourself. Fine, fine. You've been stuck here with me for five years, I bet you're pretty bored. This time, let Garuda go with you. With her and Shizune by your side, I'll feel a little more at ease!"
"Tianqi, aren't you coming out with us?" Garuda asked, though to be honest, she preferred to stay with Tianqi.
"You all go ahead. I have some important matters to attend to at the family headquarters, which will probably take about a month. You go and have some fun first, and I'll come find you once I'm done here!"
"In that case, let's set off tomorrow!" Upon hearing that Tian Qi would stay here for a month and then come to find them, Tsunade happily pulled Garuda along and walked out.
Watching Tsunade's happy departing figure, Tianqi shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself, "That Hashirama Senju guy didn't pass on any good things to his descendants, but his gambling addiction did. Sure enough, there's a reason for the Senju clan's decline. They didn't pass on any good things, how could they not decline!"
After seeing Tsunade and the other two off the next day at noon, Tianqi immediately called Uchiha Sora and Uchiha Sen to his house.
"Former clan leader, what brings you here?"
"Lord Tianqi, do you have any instructions? If so, just say so. The entire clan is determined to give our full support. Even if we have to fight against the five great nations again, we will not be afraid at all!"
"No, no, no, it's not that scary. Our family has thrived and is living in peace. I don't want to start a war anymore. But I did call you two here today because I have something to ask of you!" Tianqi looked at the father and son and spoke slowly.
"If there's anything you need, please just say it. The clan will definitely do everything in its power to help you!"
"Kong is right!"
Seeing the two people supporting him so much, Tianqi was very gratified. This was his family, his clansmen who were as close as brothers, who would support him wholeheartedly no matter what.
"Thank you, alright, I won't say any more mushy things. Take a look at this first!" With that, Tianqi placed a scroll in front of the two of them. This was the Nine-Spirit Extraction Technique that he had written on the ninjutsu scroll last night.
After Uchiha Sora and Uchiha Sen took turns reading the scroll, both of them looked puzzled, wondering what this ninjutsu was for.
"What exactly was the purpose of this technique used by the previous clan leader?"
"This technique is specially designed to trap certain things. Once trapped, they will have no chance of escape. This is also the last time I ask the family for help, the last time we will act together as a group, so..."
"No need to say more, Lord Tianqi, the entire clan will definitely support you with all our might, no matter what you do. Just tell us what you want us to do!" Hearing that this was the last operation, Zhan stopped his son Kong from asking questions and did not hesitate to help Tianqi.
After saying that, Zhan gestured to his son with his eyes. Kong immediately understood his father's meaning and nodded, saying, "That's right, former clan leader, please give us your orders. The entire clan will definitely not let you down!"
"Haha, good, good. Only the family can trust and support me like this. But there's no need to rush this for now, as we won't need it for the time being. Gather everyone in the family and I'll train you for a month. This is extremely important to me, and I can't afford to make any mistakes. You must practice diligently from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Zhan understood the implication in Tianqi's words and quickly asked, "Yes! Lord Tianqi, do you mean you will be leaving in a month?"
"Leave? Former clan leader, are you leaving?"
"Yes, my wife, children and grandchildren are all away, and I should go and spend more time with them. I trust you with the family affairs. But you don't need to worry about anything; I'll be back from time to time. You can come to me anytime if there's anything important!"
Hearing that Tianqi didn't intend to completely sever ties with his family, the two were relieved. Tianqi was the pillar of the family, and if he were to cut ties with them, it would be a devastating blow. Fortunately, he did not abandon his family.
After things were settled, Tianqi led the Uchiha clan members to begin training in the Nine Extraction Techniques of the Illusionary Spirit. Thousands of people trained together in various coordinated ways, creating a very impressive spectacle.
After a month of training, everyone had basically mastered the skills. All that was left was to practice diligently until they could achieve perfection. Having finished his task, Tianqi bid farewell to his clan and left this small world to reunite with Tsunade and the other two.
And so, Tianqi and his three companions began to travel and play around the Land of Fire for three years. During these three years, Tianqi would occasionally return to his clan to check on the training of his clansmen, but he would only go back once every six months. Tianqi also infiltrated his Xuanyuan Clan's puppets into Konoha Village, as he was still very concerned about the situation of his children and grandchildren.
However, it was precisely because Tianqi released the Xuanyuan puppets into Konoha that he felt very heavy-hearted for the next two years, because Itachi's fate did not change because of his arrival.
The connection with Mikoto Uchiha also brought Itachi closer to the moderates. Itachi, as destined, became a double agent for both Konoha and the Uchiha clan. However, it's worth mentioning that even though Tianqi took away the former militant faction, another radical militant faction emerged in Konoha. As the gears of fate turn, everything has its traces. It's perfectly normal for another militant faction to emerge in the face of Konoha's constant suppression and bullying. After all, not everyone can endure long-term suppression, let alone the arrogant Uchiha clan.
However, the moderates were Tianqi's main concern. He was focused on his grandson, Uchiha Itachi. Poor Obito had already started looking for Itachi, and a tragedy was about to unfold.
Having lost a fortune gambling, Tsunade and her two companions looked at Tenki, who was drinking alone in silence, and Tsunade finally asked:
"Tianqi, what's wrong? You look so downcast."
"I have a very bad feeling. I have a premonition that something might happen in the next two days!" Tianqi didn't say anything explicitly, but only revealed that he had a bad feeling.
"What bad thing? I think you've had too much to drink and are just mocking me. It's just that I lost a little of your family fortune. Is it necessary to scare me with such words?" Tsunade looked at Tianqi speechlessly. Over the past two years, whenever she lost a lot of money, Tianqi would make all sorts of sarcastic remarks about her. She had gotten used to it. This time, she still thought that Tianqi was going to mock her again.
"I'm not joking!" Tian Qi looked at her seriously, his face showing no sign of joking.
