After leaving the town where Tsunade lived, Tianqi did not immediately head to the southern sea. Instead, he flew towards the direction of Kannabi Bridge, intending to visit the person who had once dominated the world.
"No wonder everyone says that Tsunade is a hero's grave, it's absolutely true. I almost thought about giving up on the system missions. Women!" Thinking of the time he spent with Tsunade these past few days, Tianqi shook his head helplessly.
"With the arrival of the Third Shinobi World War, Madara's plan must be fully launched, right? Let me see if the Infinite Tsukuyomi is your own idea or if you've been bewitched by Black Zetsu!" Filled with doubts, Tianqi activated Six Paths Mode and flew towards the direction where Uchiha Madara was.
After more than ten minutes of flight, Tianqi finally arrived at the ground of the Ban underground base.
"So this is it? Crouching here to develop your strength instead of going home, you really are something, Uchiha Madara!" Tian Qi said with a mocking expression as he sensed the faint chakra of Uchiha Madara underground.
The White Jue patrolling the area also noticed Tian Qi's arrival and quickly revealed themselves to greet him.
"Hey? Tianqi, what brings you here? Did you come to visit us?"
"Stop this nonsense and take me to see him. I have something to ask him!" Tian Qi rolled his eyes at the playful Bai Jue and said seriously.
"Oh, alright, come with me!" Seeing Tian Qi's serious expression, Bai Jue stopped joking and led the way.
The White Zetsu also appeared in front of Madara Uchiha.
"Lord Ban, Tian Qi has arrived!" White Zetsu reported.
"Yes, I know. I could feel it from more than ten kilometers away. This terrifying power must be the real Tianqi!" Ban said expressionlessly, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
Yes, the mere faint aura emanating from Tian Qi was enough to make his hands tremble uncontrollably. This wasn't fear, but rather excitement at facing a powerhouse of equal strength. Clearly, Tian Qi's strength this time was undoubtedly immense.
"Lord Ban, you'd better be prepared, Tian Qi is a bit different this time!" Thinking of Tian Qi in his white robes and white hair, with twelve black spheres floating behind him, White Zetsu smiled eerily.
Having followed Madara the longest, he fully understands what these things mean. Even Madara, who has seen the world, will probably be shocked this time.
"Different? What's different?" Just as Ban was about to ask him some questions, Bai Jue brought Tian Qi to him.
At this moment, the tomoe of Tenchi's Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan were constantly rotating. He had white hair and white skin, and was wearing a white outfit with black tomoe printed on it. Twelve black Truth-Seeking Balls floated behind him.
Tianqi looked around the stone cave and nodded to himself. Yes, this was the place. It was here that Obito, that little fool, was tricked by Madara!
Ban frowned as he looked at his son. There was no other reason than that Tianqi looked almost exactly like the Sage of Six Paths he knew from the documents. Had Tianqi mastered that thing before him?
At this moment, Black Zetsu, who was attached to Madara, looked at Tian Qi in front of him and trembled with fear.
This...this is Uchiha Tenki! How could he still be alive after a thousand years? This is simply impossible! Looking at the person in front of him, who was exactly the same as the person in his memory, Black Zetsu was extremely shocked. He was very unwilling to believe that this was real.
"We have finally met after decades, Uchiha Madara!" Using a Truth-Seeking Ball to create a stool, Tianqi sat down in front of Uchiha Madara, his eyes fixed on the extremely weak old man.
"Hmph! What, are you here to show off to me? No need for that, my eyes aren't blind!" Seeing that the black ball could change shape at will, Madara was shocked, but his personality wouldn't allow him to show a humble attitude.
"I'm showing off to you? Heh, to put it bluntly, what right do you have to make me show off to you now? You're not even as good as one of my hands. What makes you so arrogant? I'm really curious." Tian Qi stretched out his hand, looking it over from left to right, completely disregarding Uchiha Madara.
"My arrogance has nothing to do with anything else; it's the mark of a strong person!" Seeing Tian Qi's dismissive attitude, Ban suppressed his anger and stared intently at him.
"A strongman? Hahahaha, Uchiha Madara, don't joke around. What kind of strongman are you? If you really want to be strong, you're just an idiot who's been used by others. You have some strength but no brains. You're not strong at all!" Tian Qi laughed loudly, belittling Uchiha Madara in various ways.
"Uchiha Tianqi, that's enough! I don't need you to teach me whether I have a brain or not. If you came here today to humiliate me, then let me tell you, you succeeded! I, Uchiha Madara, have walked the ninja world and eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. It's not your place to judge how I do things!" Madara stood up angrily and pointed at Tianqi, giving him a lecture.
"Don't be angry. Your current state doesn't match your reputation in the outside world. Let's sit down and have a good talk!" Tianqi was a little surprised to see his father so angry because of his few words.
This was completely different from the calm and indifferent Uchiha Madara he remembered. It seemed that the real person was quite different from the one he saw on TV. But that was normal. The Uchiha Madara he saw on TV was during the Fourth Shinobi World War, when he had fully recovered his strength and even reached his peak. His mentality was naturally different from now. The current Uchiha Madara had no power and no confidence, so he would naturally be impotent and furious.
"Talk about what you want to talk about, and then get out of my sight. I don't want to see you for even a second right now!" Ban calmed himself down a bit, thinking that this was his own son and there was no need to get angry with a child. He sat back down.
Seeing that his father had calmed down, Tianqi organized his thoughts and asked the question that was on his mind.
"I've always wanted to ask you, what was your original intention in launching that so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi? Was it to prove that Hashirama Senju was wrong, or to be able to live with Uncle Izuna again in the illusory world? I really don't understand why you did this?"
Ban's expression softened slightly upon hearing Tianqi use the honorific "you." After considering Tianqi's question for a moment, he slowly explained the reason.
"Although I don't know where you learned about my Infinite Tsukuyomi plan, I can tell you very clearly that I don't want to prove right or wrong to anyone, nor do I want Izuna to come back. My only goal is true peace!"
