After a night of exercise, the two returned home early the next morning and waited for Itachi in the yard.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Chiba Mikoto and Itachi finally came out, but Chiba was carrying a large bag that was almost 1.8 meters long.
"It's finally here! Oh my god! Don't tell me this huge bag is all the stuff Itachi wanted to carry!" Tianqi was stunned as he looked at the massive bundle.
"Uh... these are all the daily necessities that Mikoto prepared for Itachi. I didn't expect there to be so many..."
"What's going on? You country bumpkins going out like this? Do you really need to bring all this stuff? Are you trying to crush the weasel?!"
Upon hearing this, both Chiyu and Mikoto looked at Tianqi, their meaning clear: Itachi was too young to carry so much, so they could only trouble you, old man.
Seeing the looks in their eyes, Tianqi was speechless. He said helplessly, "Alright, alright, put it on the ground!"
After Qianyu put down the bundle that was as tall as a person, Tianqi directly used his divine power to suck the bundle into his divine power space. Asking him to carry it was a joke; who would do such hard labor?
"Alright, Itachi, let's go!" After putting away his things, Tianqi opened a spatial passage.
"Itachi, be careful when you're out and about. Remember to listen to your grandparents, okay? Go to bed early and get up early, be diligent, and don't make your grandparents angry..."
"Alright, Mikoto, that's enough. Your nagging mother has already said everything Itachi's father wanted to say to you. Father believes that under Grandpa's guidance, you will definitely become an outstanding ninja, a ninja who can surpass Father!"
"Do-san-ka-san..." Looking at his parents, Itachi, who was leaving home for the first time, still shed tears of reluctance.
"Go ahead, go ahead!"
"Goodbye, Dorsanka-san!" With a wave, Itachi followed Garuda into the spatial passage.
Just as Tianqi was about to go in, Qianyu hesitated for a moment before finally speaking.
"Father, when will you be coming back next time?"
"Hmm... if nothing unexpected happens, I will officially return to Konoha with your mother next time, but that might take a while."
"Is that so, Father... I wish you a safe journey. Please give my regards to Mother and tell her that I miss her very much!"
"I will!" Tian Qi turned around and stepped into the spatial passage, but no one noticed that a smile appeared on the corner of Tian Qi's mouth when he turned around.
In the end, Qianyu is still his own child, and this blood relationship can never be changed. Although he is a bit disobedient, he still cares about his father.
After Tianqi entered the space channel, the space channel was completely closed.
The exit of the spatial passage was located in the forest not far from Konoha Village, and Tianqi and his two companions emerged from it.
Garuda looked at the gates of Konoha Village not far away and asked with a puzzled expression, "Why is it so short?"
"Why is it so short?"
"I mean, your teleportation distance is so short, it's barely any distance from the village!"
"The reason I used spatial teleportation is because I didn't want to be discovered by the people of Konoha. Teleporting here is enough, and Itachi's training will also start here!" Tian Qi smiled slightly and looked at Itachi beside him.
"Weasel, from now on, you will have to keep up with us on foot. Is that alright?"
"No problem!" Itachi nodded, indicating that there was absolutely no problem. Walking was no challenge for him at all; it was a piece of cake.
Itachi's naive idea vanished within an hour.
Seeing Itachi's relaxed expression, Tianqi grinned slyly and said with narrowed eyes, "It's good that there are no problems. It's just a simple walk. Don't cry later!"
"I'm not the one who cries. I'm an adult who can live independently!"
"Really? Well then, good luck, little one!"
After saying that, Tianqi quickly condensed a Seeking Truth Jade in his hand. The Seeking Truth Jade slowly stretched and deformed, eventually turning into a black floor that was two meters long and wide. Tianqi and Garuda jumped onto it and sat cross-legged on it.
"Itachi, get ready to keep up with me. This is your first time training with me, so don't let me down!"
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!" Itachi said confidently. This was the first time he had performed well in front of his grandfather, and he was determined not to embarrass his father or disappoint his grandfather.
"Hehe, let's go then!"
With a wave of his hand, Tianqi caused the black floor formed by the Truth-Seeking Balls to rise five meters and begin to fly forward. The speed was not very fast, and Itachi followed closely behind.
Garuda looked at the weasel running below and said with a hint of heartache, "Isn't this a bit too much for Tianqi? He's still so young..."
“Being young is no excuse. Jade must be carved to become a useful object. If we don’t nurture it from a young age, how can it become a useful object in the future?” Tianqi said calmly with his eyes closed, while at the same time accurately locking onto Tsunade’s location through his senses.
"But isn't this a bit too early? I remember Itachi is only five years old. Won't doing this hurt his body?"
"You're overthinking it. It's just simple endurance training, how could it hurt your body? And even if it did get injured, I can quickly heal it with me here, no problem!"
"Alright!" Although Garuda still felt a little heartache when she heard Tianqi say that, she didn't say anything more. She would follow Tianqi's lead and do whatever he wanted.
An hour passed quickly, and the weasel running below finally began to sweat. This scene was noticed by Tianqi above.
"What's wrong, Itachi? You're already sweating after only an hour of running. Are you even capable? If you're not, just say so and Grandpa won't laugh at you!"
The more Tianqi said this, the more unwilling Itachi became to give up. He shouted defiantly, "I'm just a little hot. I can run for several more hours without any problem. Grandpa, just watch! I, Uchiha Itachi, will never admit defeat!"
"Well done, Itachi! That's encouraging. Keep it up and don't give up. Let me see where your limits are!" With that, Tianqi waved his hand again, and the Truth-Seeking Ball floor flew faster.
Seeing his grandfather above him speed up again, Itachi started to complain in his heart, "Damn it, why is he speeding up again? My dear grandfather, I was just saying it casually, why did you take it seriously? This is going to slap me in the face!"
"Damn it, I won't give up!" Itachi shouted, gritted his teeth, and began to accelerate.
After running for another half hour at high speed, Itachi finally started panting heavily, drenched in sweat, clearly nearing his limit.
Seeing this, Tianqi felt it was about time, so he stopped and slowly landed on the ground from mid-air.
