Shedding Part of His Sage Power

Seeing Tianqi so angry, no one spoke. It was clear that Tianqi was prepared to die at any moment. They found it hard to accept what Tianqi had said, but they could not continue to oppose Tianqi. They all lowered their heads.

"Hmph, I am now issuing this order in my capacity as the current Clan Head: listen up, all of you, if I fail tomorrow, Zhan will automatically succeed me as Clan Head."

"Tianqi, no, Clan Head, I do not accept this order! In my heart, you will not fail; you are our true Clan Head!" Upon hearing that he was to succeed to the throne, Zhan refused outright.

"Shut up! I'm giving you an order, not negotiating! You have no right to refuse! I've already given you a portion of the Sage Power. In time, when you awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan, this power will counteract the side effects on your eyes."

"Moreover, I have already connected my eyes with my pupil power. As soon as I die, the Kamui in my eyes will automatically activate and be transmitted to your hands. Make good use of my eyes then. This is what I promised your father. Do you understand, Zhan?" Tianqi looked at Zhan with a serious expression.

"Why! Why do you have to do this? Are we really going to lose?" Zhan felt very uncomfortable listening to Tianqi's words. Tianqi's words clearly indicated that he was not confident of winning tomorrow's battle, which he could not accept. How could someone as strong as Tianqi possibly lose?

"Go and prepare," Tianqi said without answering Zhan's question, and then dismissed everyone.

No one moved; they simply knelt silently on the spot.

Seeing that everyone was kneeling and motionless, Tianqi roared, "You're forcing me to curse you, aren't you! Get out of here!"

"Sigh, let's go." Seeing that Tianqi was unwilling to say more, Zhan led everyone out the door, but they did not leave. Instead, they stood neatly outside the door.

Seeing everyone leave, Tianqi's Tianqi went weak and he collapsed back into the chair. He clenched his fists tightly. "I didn't expect that just stripping away a small portion of the Sage Power would make me so weak."

Tianqi did this entirely because of the system's warning and his sudden bad premonition.

[Warning! Warning! Attention, host! The reincarnation of the Chosen One Asura Chakra, Hashirama Senju descend tomorrow.]

[Hashirama Senju, the chosen one of this world, is blessed with the power of heaven and earth. The system estimates that the host's 99% chance of winning has been reduced to 60%. Please prepare yourself.]

The system made an unprecedented assessment of him, which shocked him greatly. He had thought the situation was a sure thing, but the arrival of Hashirama Senju had made everything uncertain again.

At the same time, a bad premonition came over him, and his left eye kept twitching. In the end, he made a decision that led to the scene before.

"Chosen One of the Planes, huh? I don't believe you're invincible," Tianqi sneered and began to recover cross-legged.

In the mental space.

"Tianqi, your strength has already decreased by two-tenths due to the forced stripping away of some Sage Power," the Nine-Tails said slowly, swaying its tail.

"I know my strength has declined, Kurama. I need to ask you for help tonight. I must recover my strength, otherwise I will definitely lose tomorrow." Tianqi stood on the water, looking at the Nine Tailed Beasts in front of him.

"Oh, Tianqi, you were too impulsive. Even if we, the Nine Tailed Beasts, join forces, we can only restore nine-tenths of your strength at most. We can't do anything about the remaining ten-tenths." The Nine Tailed Beasts all shook their heads.

"Nine-tenths is enough to deal with Hashirama Senju. It's up to you guys now."

The Nine Tailed Beasts joined forces to begin repairing Tianqi's body.

As the night passed, dawn slowly broke.

"Phew, it's finally over." Tianqi exhaled a puff of white smoke, opened his eyes, stood up, and clenched his fist. "Recovered, hehe. Nine Tailed Beasts plus the Eternal Mangekyo and Sage Power, what can you do to me Hashirama Senju?"

"You call yourself the chosen one of this world? Watch how I torment you this time. Even heaven and earth can't protect you, as I said."

Thinking about how he would soon be able to crush Hashirama Senju, Tianqi was in high spirits. As Tianqi spoke, he walked out the door, only to see the Uchiha clan standing there. "Holy crap! What are you all doing standing here? Did you stand here all night?"

Everyone, with dark circles under their eyes, nodded at Tianqi.

"I'm fucking fed up with you guys. Today is the final battle, and you're still creating this sad atmosphere. Are you hoping I'm not completely dead?" Tianqi looked at them speechlessly.

"Well, we were just worried you might do something rash because you looked so determined yesterday," Zhan Tianqi said, laughing it off as he seemed perfectly fine.

"Screw you, you're the one who's being foolish. I was just making preparations yesterday. After all, you have to be fully prepared," Tianqi his eyes at Zhan.

"Hehe..." Zhan could only chuckle in response.

Tianqi Bai Wanzhan turned to the others and said, "Everyone, follow me to meet the enemy."

"Oh!" Seeing that Tianqi no longer had the same feeling of wanting to die as yesterday, everyone was also full of fighting spirit.

Tianqi led his men on their way, while the Allied Shinobi Forces marched in a large force towards Tianqi's location. This time, they left no one behind; all the ninjas went to the battlefield.

Shimura Danzō to Orochimaru, who was standing next to him, "How's your learning of Orochimaru's Ninjutsu coming along?"

"That Ninjutsu isn't difficult; I learned it in one night. But Ninjutsu seems to have some flaws. Is it really okay to use it rashly? Won't it summon them and then attack us instead?" Although Orochimaru was interested in the Ninjutsu, he was still a little worried about using it rashly.

"It has to work, even if it doesn't work. It's just a minor flaw. Forbidden techniques are bound to have some minor problems, but it's nothing. I don't think that person would attack the Konoha Ninja." He didn't care at all about the flaws Orochimaru mentioned. He only cared about how much the Four Greats' power could be weakened this time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also asked his beloved disciple, "Orochimaru, have you learned that Ninjutsu yet? Just be careful not to cause any accidents."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was clearly also worried about that forbidden technique. If Danzo hadn't told him he didn't intend to use it, he wouldn't have been able to avoid it, as he really had no other choice when facing Tianqi.

"Don't worry, old man, I've already learned it. As for whether there will be any accidents, I don't know. After all, I've only just learned this technique myself, but I should be able to execute it successfully." Orochimaru didn't give a definite answer, because he really didn't know if anything would go wrong.

However, this time when he looked at the Forbidden Scroll, he discovered many interesting Ninjutsu. Several of Ninjutsu deeply attracted him, and he had memorized Ninjutsu. He planned to secretly experiment with Ninjutsu as soon as the war ended.
