The Child Was About to Be Born, and Tianqi Rushed Back to Konoha
Time flies, and seven months have passed in the blink of an eye. During these seven months, Tianqi and Ban have been engaged in a grueling struggle every day in this underground base, and Black Zetsu has been complaining that life is too difficult.
However, today, a clone of White Zetsu brought Tianqi good news from Konoha Village: "Tianqi, Tianqi, I've heard some good news. Your child will be born in a few days!"
Tianqi, who was struggling with Ban, was slightly taken aback when he heard the news. Then he smiled and said, "Yoshi, great! The continuation of life has finally begun!" "When exactly was the White Zetsu child born?"
White Zetsu thought for a moment and said directly, "Well... it'll probably be five to six days, in short, not many days left."
"Five or six days is enough time. It seems I should go," Tianqi said, standing up.
Seeing Tianqi stand up, Uchiha Madara, who was standing to the side, spoke up unhurriedly, "Tianqi, are you leaving? I wonder when you'll be able to come back here next time?"
"Maybe it will be more than ten years, maybe he will never come back. I am different from you, I will always stay by my child's side." Tianqi looked at Ban with a complicated expression. After all, he was his father. Although he was a bastard, it did not change the fact that they were blood relatives.
Hearing Tianqi say that he might not return for more than ten years or even forever, Ban felt a slight disappointment. During the seven months he spent with his son, his son cooked for him every day, which honestly made him feel the warmth of home again. Although they were constantly arguing about the Six Paths powers, he had gradually gotten used to this way of interacting with his son. He knew Tianqi would leave, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon. He sighed softly, "Well, since you're leaving, take that thing with you. Consider it a gift for your child. White Zetsu, bring it here."
At Madara's command, White Zetsu approached with a Ninjutsu scroll and a set of clothes printed with Uchiha Gunbai. Tianqi looked at these items, and his expression became even more complicated. He didn't consider himself a cold-blooded person; he could still feel the concern his old father had for him.
"This Ninjutsu scroll records the strongest Ninjutsu of the Uchiha and is for your child. As for this set of clothes, it was passed down to me by your grandfather Uchiha Tajima, when I became the Clan Head. Today, I pass it on to you, hoping that you will not be bound by anything and will walk your own path." As he spoke, Madara's thoughts returned to the time when his father and brothers were still alive. At that time, he did not have so many thoughts, and he was not bound by anything. Those were his happiest days.
"Thank you, Father," Tianqi hugged Ban for the first time and called him "Father" for the first time.
Ban was gratified to hear this. He thought to himself that the gift was well worth it. He was already satisfied to receive a thank you from Tianqi and to be called his father. However, Tianqi's behavior the next second made him furious.
After accepting the two gifts from Madara, Tianqi actually took five White Zetsu with him. "Hehe, since you're so generous, you probably don't care about a few White Zetsu. I'll take these five White Zetsu with me. Goodbye Uchiha Madara!"
Seeing that Tianqi had accepted his two gifts and even managed to steal five of his White Zetsu, Madara was furious and cursed, "Uchiha Tianqi, you brat! I only gave you inanimate objects, I didn't say I was giving them to you or the White Zetsu! Don't let me see you again! If I see you again, I'll make you pay!!!"
However, Tianqi seemed not to hear him and disappeared from the underground base in the blink of an eye. Seeing Tianqi completely leave, Madara immediately put away his angry expression and smiled. "That brat really doesn't suffer any losses. The combination of Uchiha and Senju, this grandson will definitely be interesting." He didn't care at all about Tianqi taking away five White Zetsu. They were just five White Zetsu. As long as the Masaki had enough Chakra, he could create countless White Zetsu. As for whether Tianqi would expose the secret of the White Zetsu, he wasn't worried at all. He believed that Tianqi wasn't so stupid as to actively expose the secret of the White Zetsu.
Once outside the underground base, the five White Zetsu looked at Tianqi with puzzled expressions. "W-wh... Tianqi, are you sure something's wrong with us? Is it really okay for you to bring us out like this?"
Tianqi waved dismissively, "Don't worry, Ban was yelling so loudly just now. He actually wanted me to take you guys with him so he could keep an eye on me. Besides, if he really didn't want me to take you with him, he would have sent people after me already. You see, he hasn't sent anyone out yet, which means everything is fine. Just stay with me and relax."
After listening to Tianqi's words, the White Zetsu exchanged glances and thought that what Tianqi said seemed to make sense. "Alright then, we'll follow you, but you have to promise that Lord Madara won't blame us."
"Alright, don't worry, I guarantee you'll be fine. Just come with me!" With that, Tianqi led the five White Zetsu towards Konoha.
Meanwhile, in the Konoha hospital, Tsunade lay on the bed, heavily pregnant, with her younger brother, Senju Nawaki, and her grandmother, Uzumaki Mito, by her side. "Grandma, is my baby about to be born?" she asked.
Uzumaki Mito looked at her eldest granddaughter with a smile, "Yes, the little granddaughter is about to be born, in about five days."
"Honestly, sis, your baby is about to be born, Tianqi is still lying in bed. He's so unreliable," Shinsetsu said, pouting.
Upon hearing Shinsetsu's words, Tsunade's expression immediately turned sour. Seeing this, Uzumaki Mito quickly covered Shinsetsu's mouth and said to Tsunade, "Tsunade, don't listen to Shinsetsu's nonsense. I believe Tianqi will wake up soon. Don't worry. Your main task now is to recover and take good care of the child. Give Tianqi a surprise when he wakes up."
"Don't worry, Grandma, I'm fine. I will definitely protect Tianqi's child." Hearing Grandma Mito's words, Tsunade knew that now was not the time to worry. Her main task now was to recover and take good care of her child.
Seeing that her eldest granddaughter Tsunade's mood had improved a bit, Uzumaki Mito picked up Shinsetsu and dragged her out of the room. Once outside, Uzumaki Mito tossed Shinsetsu aside like a chick and scolded, "You brat, don't you know your sister is pregnant and her emotions are very unstable right now? She's already in a bad state, and if you say anything that upsets her, she really won't be able to take it. How can you be so inconsiderate!"
Shinsetsu looked aggrieved. "I know I was wrong. I just blurted things out without thinking."
"You're just being quick-tongued. If you keep doing this, don't come here next time. I sent you here to take care of your sister, not to provoke her, do you understand?" Uzumaki Mito scolded her grandson with a serious expression.
"I see,..."
