"Here's the thing, Danzo just told me not to stay in Konoha for a while, and I happen to be going to see your mother Tsunade anyway, so there's no better time than tomorrow, which is a good day to set off. I'd like to take Itachi with me this time, what do you think..."
Tianqi wanted to keep his eldest grandson with him, but he couldn't directly say he would take him away. After all, Itachi was Mikoto's son, and as his grandfather, he couldn't force him. It would be better to ask Itachi's parents for their consent.
"Leaving tomorrow? Father, you just got back, there's no need to leave so soon. Besides, if it's because of Danzo, there's nothing wrong with it. No matter how powerful Danzo is, he has no right to kick people out!"
"Mikoto, don't get agitated. Actually, this has nothing to do with Danzo. You know, Father's presence makes many people uncomfortable, and I don't really like the environment in Konoha either. The free and unrestrained world outside suits me better, so there's no need to investigate this matter further."
"Is that so? If it's about taking Itachi along, I have no objection as long as the child is willing to go. However, we should still inform Chiba about this, since he is Itachi's father. How about we wait until we ask Chiba before making a decision?"
"That's natural!"
After roughly finalizing the arrangements, Garuda said with a relaxed expression, "Oh dear, there are so many fun things to do here that I haven't even had a chance to experience before leaving. I'm really going to miss it!"
"That's easy! Garuda Mother, you can stay here. I can then show you around Konoha!"
"Hehe, thanks Mikoto! But no matter how good the things here are, they can't compare to your father. I'll only ever follow Tianqi for the rest of my life; wherever he goes, I'll go!"
While they were having a lively conversation, Chiba, who was walking home after work, ran into Danzo who was leaving. They nodded to each other and then went their separate ways.
Looking at Danzo's back and then at the direction he came from, Chiba frowned slightly.
"Why is that old rascal still wandering around outside so late? And judging from the direction he's coming from, it seems like he came from my house. Is he looking for my father?"
Filled with questions, Qianyu slowly returned home, only to hear bursts of laughter as soon as she stepped inside.
"Hmm? Why is it so lively? Do we have guests?"
Upon entering the hall, Qianyu immediately spotted the woman chatting animatedly with Mikoto. "Who is this? I've never seen her before!"
"Auntie, Qianyu, you're back! Hurry, hurry, Garuda's mother is here! Come and meet her!" Seeing her husband Qianyu return, Mikoto pulled him to Garuda's side and introduced her to her.
"Garuda Mother, this is my husband Qianyu, and also the son of Tianqi's father."
"Qianyu, this is Garuda's mother; she is also Father's wife."
"Wife! No way!" Qianyu's eyes widened as he looked at the young and beautiful woman in front of him, who was actually his father's wife. He was inwardly shocked.
Holy crap, he just got back and already snagged such a stunningly beautiful woman. That old man's got guts! He's old but young at heart. Is he planning to give me another little brother? I can't believe it.
"So you are Tianqi's son, right? My name is Garuda, Otsutsuki Garuda, and I am also your father's wife. Nice to meet you!" Garuda said, extending her hand.
"Uh... my name is Uchiha Chiyu. Nice to meet you both!" Chiyu didn't extend her hand, but instead gave a slight bow.
It's not that he dislikes Garuda, but rather that shaking hands and greeting elders is too impolite. Besides, he doesn't have any other opinion on polygamy; he just thinks his father is a bit too fierce.
Seeing that Qianyu didn't shake hands with him, Garuda awkwardly withdrew his hand and asked with some doubt, "Qianyu, you don't have a problem with me, do you? You think I stole your mother's man and you're unhappy about it, right?"
"Hehehe, you're overthinking it. I have absolutely no objection to my father finding another partner. I'm not the kind of person who discriminates against polygamy, and I also believe in my father and mother's relationship. So you're completely overthinking it!" Qian Yu shook his head with a wry smile. Although the woman in front of him was very young, he still used the honorific "you" because she was his father's woman, and he had to show her the proper respect.
"Is that really what you think?"
"Yes, it couldn't be more real!"
"Hahaha, you look just like him! You even say the same thing as Tianqi. You're definitely Tianqi's son, no doubt about it!" Garuda looked at Qianyu, who resembled Tianqi by about 60%, and laughed heartily.
"Alright, alright, let's talk about this later. Mikoto, go and arrange for someone to serve dinner. Chiba has had a long day, let him have a hot meal!"
"Okay, I'll go get someone right away!"
After Mikoto left, Chiyu found a place close to Tianqi and sat down. As soon as she sat down, Chiyu covered her mouth with her hand and whispered to Tianqi, "Father, you're already so old, and you still found me a stepmother. Aren't you afraid that Mother will be angry?"
"Don't cause trouble, you little brat. I'll explain to your mother myself. Besides, Garuda is your mother too. If we're really talking about age, she's older than me. So behave yourself and stop being sarcastic!"
"Don't worry, I understand!"
After hearing her father's words, Qianyu instantly understood that her young and beautiful stepmother probably used the same secret technique as her mother to maintain her youthful appearance. With that thought, she no longer had many reservations.
Garuda didn't eavesdrop when Tianqi and his son were talking in hushed tones. She looked at Tianqi's son, Qianyu, and missed her children even more. It was such a pity that her children were long gone, and that Tianqi had never seen them.
Tianqi also noticed that Garuda seemed a little down, so he turned his head and asked in a low voice.
"Garuda, what's wrong? Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I just thought of your child when I saw Qianyu. Oh, what a pity, what a pity!"
Upon hearing this, Qianyu quickly asked, "Garuda Mother, do you mean that you, my father, and I have children?"
"Yes, they are twins, a boy and a girl. The boy is named Ōtsutsuki Ganesha and the girl is named Ōtsutsuki Adetto. They are good children just like you!"
"I didn't expect it to be a man and a woman. Where are they now? Why didn't you bring them with you this time? It would have been a good opportunity for our whole family to get together!" Qianyu was also very excited to hear that she had brothers and sisters.
With his father's genes, his two children would definitely be outstanding individuals. If he could have two siblings, his family would truly prosper, and he would have trustworthy helpers. No matter how close outsiders are, they can't compare to one's own brothers.
