"Hehe, let's go, there's only one Sand Village left, let's go to the Land of Wind for dinner." Tianqi led everyone and disappeared from the spot.
Hozuki Eiji of Kirigakure crawled out of the ruins. "Luckily, I liquefied my body at the crucial moment, otherwise I probably would have died here today."
Looking at the village, half of which was destroyed, Hozuki Eiji's hatred for Uchiha Tenki reached its peak. "Uchiha Tenki! Kirigakure will fight you to the death!"
"Someone, gather your men!" Hozuki Eiji shouted, but no one paid him any attention. When he turned around, he realized that his men had all died in the explosion. "Uchiha Tensei!!! Ah!!!"
Hozuki Eiji roared Tensei's name loudly amidst the ruins.
Meanwhile, Tianqi led everyone to eat in the desert. "The Water Country is humid, while the Wind Country is so dry. They are truly two extremes," Zhan said while eating.
“Yes, we’ve been traveling so fast between several countries that our bodies are starting to feel a bit uncomfortable,” Uchiha Kaze chimed in.
“The local environment of the major powers is indeed not very good. If Konoha were not strong enough, they would have come over and robbed it long ago,” Tianqi said while eating.
"Lord Tianqi, if one day Konoha no longer wants us, will you leave the Land of Fire?" A ninja wiped his mouth and asked Tianqi. The others stopped eating and looked at Tianqi.
"Why are you suddenly asking this? Well, since you're curious, I'll tell you."
"To be honest, I've lived in the Land of Fire for so many years since I was a child, and I don't want to leave. I've gotten used to life here. Even if I leave Konoha, I won't leave the Land of Fire because this is my home. It's that simple. Any more questions?" Tianqi tilted his head and looked at everyone.
"Uh... no, we really don't want to leave the Land of Fire. After all, the environment here is so nice, and nobody wants to leave just like that," the ninja continued.
"Um, um, what's your name again, Uchiha Takashi? I've completely forgotten." Looking at this person, Tianqi couldn't remember his name for a moment.
“Uh… my name is Uchiha Gao Li, Lord Tian Qi.” Gao Li was speechless, not expecting that Tian Qi hadn’t remembered his name.
"I'm so sorry, Brother Gao Li, I've been so busy lately that I didn't remember your name. Do you still have any relatives in the clan?" Tian Qi was a little embarrassed for not remembering someone's name.
"No, I'm all alone now. My parents died in battle." Uchiha Takashi's face turned sad when he talked about his parents.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know your parents had already... I'm sorry." Tianqi also realized that Gao Li was also an orphan, and he had really touched a raw nerve.
"It's alright, Lord Tianqi. I've gotten used to being alone all these years," Gao Li forced a smile.
Looking at Gao Li's appearance, Tian Qi sighed, "Ah, this is the ninja world. It's really not easy to have a sense of family here."
"Alright, Gao Li, from now on, you are my brother, Uchiha Tianqi's brother. I am your family, as are Zhan and the others. I have been an orphan since I was a child. From now on, you are all my brothers. We will share happiness and hardship together!" Tianqi said, putting his arm around Gao Li's shoulder.
Gao Li looked at Tian Qi with some surprise. The hierarchy among Uchiha ninjas was quite strict. He didn't expect Tian Qi, a high-ranking member of the martial arts faction, to say such a thing, which put him in a bit of a dilemma. "Lord Tian Qi, this..."
The others were also surprised to hear Tianqi's words, as no Uchiha high-ranking member had ever said such a thing before. Uchiha Feng also stepped forward and said, "Lord Tianqi, this is not very appropriate."
"There's nothing wrong with it, come on, brothers!" Tianqi stretched out his fist.
"Since Tianqi has said so, what are you still hesitating for? Other big shots won't treat you this well." Zhan stepped forward and directly collided his fist with Tianqi's fist.
Seeing this, the others exchanged glances, realizing that Tianqi wasn't joking, and they all came over, bumping their fists together.
"Great! From now on, we are all family and brothers. We will share happiness and hardship!" Tianqi said happily as he watched everyone raise their fists.
"We'll share the good times and the bad!" Everyone shouted, clapping their fists together.
"Hahaha, with everyone so united, we're sure to be invincible this time, hahaha!" Tianqi retracted his fist and laughed loudly.
"Since Tianqi is willing to share the good fortune, hehe, look at Tsunade..." Zhan rubbed his hands together and looked at Tianqi with a lewd expression.
"Holy shit! Get out of here! Get lost!" Tian Qi kicked Zhan away.
"Ah!" Zhan was sent flying and crashed onto the sand.
"Didn't you say we'd share the good times? Why did you kick me?" Zhan said, lying on the sand with a wronged expression.
"How dare you say that! I treated you like a brother, and since you've got your eye on my wife, kicking you out is already being lenient," Tianqi said, looking at Zhan with utter contempt.
"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed when they saw Zhan looking wronged after doing something wrong, and Gao Li laughed too.
"I'm an orphan too. I'm not joking when I say this. I truly consider you a brother and family," Tianqi whispered in Gao Li's ear. After saying that, Tianqi walked towards the battlefield.
“Lord Tianqi…” Gao Li looked at Tianqi’s back and was filled with emotion. He vowed to be loyal to Lord Tianqi to the death.
"Stop pretending! I didn't even use any force. Get up now!" Tian Qi looked at Zhan lying on the ground with disdain. He hadn't even used any force, yet this guy had already been sent flying. What a show-off.
"Oh, Tianqi, your strength has been lacking lately. I flew out and you were unharmed. You need to cultivate more." Zhan felt embarrassed that he had been seen through and stood up, patting the sand off his body.
"If you keep talking like that, I'll really cut off your little brother next time," Tianqi glanced at Zhan's lower body and made a cutting gesture.
"Hiss, Tianqi, I promise I won't talk nonsense anymore, I promise!" Zhan covered his lower body with both hands, repeatedly promising that he would never say anything carelessly.
"It's okay, you can do it again next time. I haven't chopped a little brother in a long time, I've almost forgotten what it feels like." Tianqi casually looked at his hand chop and blew on it.
"Um... Tianqi, let's hurry to Sunagakure. There's a lot to do later." Zhan changed the subject immediately. He was afraid that Tianqi would accidentally kill himself if he talked about his younger brother.
"Alright, I'll let you off this time, you big talker," Tianqi turned and left the battlefield, heading towards the crowd.
Zhan followed behind Tianqi. He didn't dare to refute Tianqi's claim that he was just a big talker. Zhan thought it was best to avoid provoking this ruthless person.
Tianqi didn't care. He and Zhan were just joking around all the time, and he was used to it. He wouldn't really get angry, which was why Zhan dared to joke so recklessly.
