"You really have no connection with Konoha, but you've offended me," Tianqi said angrily.
"Lord Tsuchikage, are you alright?" At that moment, the Tsuchikage's guards rushed in.
"It seems like this is our first meeting, young man. I don't know how I offended you," Onoki said to Tianqi, waving his hand to stop the guards.
"Don't know? I'll tell you a place, you'll know. You remember the Land of Hot Springs?" Tianqi said, still staring at Onoki, completely disregarding the Shadow Guard.
"Oh, the Land of Hot Springs, isn't that your Konoha territory? My development of power there has nothing to do with you, right?" Upon hearing "Land of Hot Springs," Onoki knew what Tenki wanted to say, but since it was the Land of Hot Springs, he didn't care at all.
Seeing Onoki's nonchalant attitude, Tianqi became even angrier. "You secretly invaded another country, which is suspected of starting a war. I didn't see it, so I let it go. But now that I have seen it, I must do something about it."
"And most importantly, my teammate is injured and bedridden because of your actions. Don't you intend to give me an explanation for that?"
"So you're here to demand an explanation because your teammate was injured. What war are you talking about? I thought Konoha had become peace ambassadors," Onoki said with his arms crossed and a mocking expression.
"Onoki, don't try to talk nonsense with me. What are you going to do about my teammate's injury?" Tianqi said impatiently, wanting to make Onoki angry so he could teach him a lesson.
"What are we going to do? Ha, you're just a lowly ninja from Konoha. I don't know how you managed to sneak in, but you're all alone. Do you think you can walk out alive?" Onoki waved his hand, and the guards immediately surrounded Tianqi.
Tianqi looked at himself surrounded and smiled. "Onoki, you've really made something of yourself as Tsuchikage. You've become so disregardful of human life, killing people without a second thought."
"Hmph! I've never been kind to Konoha ninjas. Even if I wipe you out today, Sarutobi won't dare to do anything, you arrogant brat!" Onoki shouted. He disliked Konoha, a village that lacked integrity.
"Kill him!" Onoki immediately ordered his men to do so.
Without hesitation, the Shadow Guards thrust their kunai at Tian Qi, knowing they were no pushovers and were absolutely obedient to the Earth Shadow.
Seeing everyone attack him, Tianqi simply stood still and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.
Seeing that Tianqi was standing still, the crowd assumed he had given up and stabbed him with a kunai.
"I've succeeded!" One of the ninjas was overjoyed, thinking he had stabbed Tianqi, but Tianqi's voice shattered his joy.
"You're getting ahead of yourself," Tianqi said with a smile as he looked at the ninja.
Seeing that Tianqi could still speak, the other ninjas did not hesitate at all and directly used kunai to stab Tianqi.
Bang bang bang.
The kunai pierced Tian Qi's body, but no blood flowed out; instead, the sound of the kunai colliding was heard.
That's right, Tianqi used Divine Might Illusion.
"What's going on? Why didn't he fall down?" The group pulled out the kunai that had pierced Tian Qi and looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"This kid is definitely strange for daring to come alone. The kunai actually passed through his body. What a strange ninjutsu." Onoki, as expected of the Tsuchikage, saw the problem at a glance.
"Your attacks are over, it's my turn! Flame Release: Kagutsuchi!" Tianqi directly summoned black Amaterasu flames, which formed fiery spikes that pierced several ninjas.
In an instant, the entire Shadow Guard was killed. The flames did not disappear but continued to burn the corpses, eventually reducing them to ashes.
"What terrifying black flames!" Onoki was already shocked to see the Shadow Guards wiped out in an instant, but he didn't expect that the black flames would leave even the Shadow Guards behind. "With its strange penetrating ability and terrifying black flames, it seems that things won't end well today."
"Killing my Shadow Guard should be enough, right? Leave now and I won't hold you responsible." Onoki hadn't figured out Tenki's ninjutsu and thought Tenki had penetrating abilities, so he couldn't do anything about Tenki and just wanted to let Tenki leave.
"Heh, I laughed. Killing someone just like that, releasing them just like that? Onoki, I don't know if you're too naive or too simplistic." Seeing that Onoki was about to back down, Tianqi directly started to provoke him.
"So what do you want? I advise you not to go too far. This is Iwagakure. Although I haven't figured out your strange ability yet, it must have strong limitations. I don't believe you can use it indefinitely. If you push me too far, I'll just overwhelm you with sheer numbers today," Onoki threatened, seeing that Tianqi was trying to push his luck.
"Human wave tactics? Heh, Onoki, let me help you recall. When you and the Second Tsuchikage went to Konoha to form an alliance, who did you encounter? Do you think that person would be afraid of human wave tactics?" Tianqi said with a wicked smile, he wanted to remind Onoki of that shadow.
Upon hearing Tianqi's words, Onoki's face immediately turned ugly. That man, that arrogant man, was the one who had beaten his teacher and himself so badly that they couldn't even lift their heads, and had even been threatened by him. His old face had been rubbed into the ground.
"It's a pity you're not him." Onoki glared at Tianqi. He remembered why this person looked familiar. This person looked too much like that man, equally arrogant and equally unapproachable.
"It seems you've remembered." Tianqi stared directly at Onoki with his Eternal Kaleidoscope, his scarlet eyes shining brightly at that moment.
"That's right! That's right! It's those eyes, that arrogant expression, Uchiha Madara, it's you! It's you! Today I will reclaim the dignity I once lost!" In Onoki's mind, Uchiha Madara transformed into a phantom and merged with Tian Qi. He directly mistook Tian Qi for Uchiha Madara.
At this moment, past humiliations resurfaced, and anger directly overcame reason.
"Dust Release - Particle Style Detachment Technique"
"Uchiha Madara, die!" Onoki used the Kekkei Tota, a fusion of earth, wind, and fire ninjutsu, which was also Onoki's signature move, to directly attack Tianqi.
"So you're so angry that you see me as Uchiha Madara? Madara is indeed the shadow in Onoki's heart." Tianqi looked at the Dust Release attack without caring at all. With Kamui, what's there to be afraid of?
A white, transparent cube-shaped energy shield directly encased Tian Qi, then disintegrated, and Tian Qi vanished. The floor was also disintegrated, leaving a square crater.
"Hahaha, Uchiha Madara, weren't you so arrogant and invincible? You were still wiped out by me today." Onoki laughed out loud as he watched Tianqi's figure disappear from the spot.
Just as Onoki was laughing, Tianqi's figure slowly appeared. The moment he was hit, Tianqi immediately hid in the Kamui Dimension.
"Nothing happened? How is that possible! I definitely hit him!" Onoki said in disbelief.
"An ant is just an ant, how dare it challenge me?"
Susanoo! (Chinese-Japanese translation: Susanoo)
A massive blue energy erupted directly around Tianqi, causing cracks to appear in the walls and the ground, and the Susanoo skeleton began to slowly take shape.
"This! This! This is..." The terrifying memories resurfaced. Looking at the slowly forming skeleton, the shadow in Onoki's heart re-emerged. "No! This is impossible!"
The second form of Susanoo's upper body was completed in one go. Tianqi slowly rose into the air, and his two legs slowly grew out.
proud!
Its enormous form grew all the way to the rooftop. With a roar, Susanoo shattered the roof with two punches. Susanoo's form continued to grow, eventually reaching 600 meters.
