Time Kept Passing
Upon hearing this, Danzo rolled his Byakugan. He couldn't refute what Tianqi said for the time being. If they could create a large number of such creatures, they wouldn't need to hide here with him.
"Alright, alright, if you want to stay in Konoha, just use the name Sani. I'll take care of your identity. Now get out of here, my men will arrange accommodation for you!" Seeing his dream Danzo, Danzo impatiently waved him away.
"I won't say any more, Danzo, thanks!" Tianqi rarely said thank you, then got up and left the office.
"Sigh, that brat, he always has so much to do!" Danzo shook his head with a wry smile as he watched Tianqi's departing figure.
Tianqi and the White Zetsu settled in Danzo's Root. Time flew by, and a year passed. In Konoha Year 32, due to the uneven economic development between countries, the Militant Faction of various ninja villages rose in power, and the Second Shinobi World War broke out. First, the Three Great Shinobi Villages fought fiercely in Amegakure. Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade were bestowed the title of the Legendary Sannin by Hanzo in this battle. The year-long war ended in Konoha.
That same year, the hot-blooded Senju Nawaki died while on a mission with his master Orochimaru. Tsunade was also deeply affected by her brother's sacrifice. Seeing his disciple die, Orochimaru became increasingly prejudiced against the fragility of life.
"I didn't expect that Shinsetsu would still sacrifice himself. As expected, what's meant to happen will happen. Fate cannot be escaped!" Tianqi sighed as he looked at the intelligence in his hand at Root. He thought that after 32 years in Konoha, Shinsetsu would not die. He didn't expect that in the end he still could not escape the arrangement of fate. It was all his destiny!
"You weren't around and now your brother has sacrificed himself. Tsunade must be heartbroken. Don't you want to comfort her?" Danzo said to Tianqi with a teasing smile.
"Stop messing around. Do you think Tsunade would believe me if I said this? She's still in the Land of Rain, how am I supposed to comfort her!" Tianqi Danzo his eyes at Danzo, speechless.
Aside from using Sani's identity to help Danzo with some minor tasks over the past year, he hadn't seen his child even once. To be honest, he was almost frantic with worry. It was such a pity that he couldn't watch his child grow up, but there was nothing he could do since Uzumaki Mito was by his child's side Tenten.
Tsunade and Uzumaki Mito also named their child Senju Sen. As for why they didn't use the Uchiha surname, they probably didn't want to be associated with the arrogant Uchiha Clan. That's probably it. No one knows the specific reason.
"Alas! These are truly turbulent times. The First Shinobi World War has only been over for a few years, and the Second Shinobi World War has already begun. The Shinobi World is getting more and more chaotic!" Danzo said with a helpless shake of his head.
"Heh, Hanzo is indeed overestimating himself. With his meager strength, he dares to call himself a demigod and even wants to establish the sixth great ninja village. That's just wishful thinking. But isn't the chaos in the Shinobi World exactly what you wanted to see?" Tianqi squinted at Danzo with a sly smile.
Tianqi knew this guy's personality and temperament all too well. He was eager for chaos in the Shinobi World, preferably with several major villages fighting and wearing each other down. However, Konoha did not want Danzo to get involved.
"What do you mean this is the result I wanted? Stop talking nonsense! Konoha has lost so much of its fighting strength, this is definitely not what I wanted to see!" Danzo, who had been hit where it hurt, immediately stood up and denied Tenten's words.
"Of course you don't want to see Konoha being depleted, but other villages might be a different story. Stop spouting nonsense about the Shinobi World and pretending to be righteous. It's all so fake!" After saying that, Tianqi turned and left. Watching Danzo on this show was really pointless.
Watching Tianqi leave like that, Danzo's lips twitched slightly. "That guy is really annoying. Did you have to say it when you saw through him? But I have to admit, that brat really understands me. He's practically a mind reader!"
In Konoha Year 33, the second year of the Second Shinobi World War, the war shifted to localized battles. The Land of Fire invaded the Land of Wind, and the Land of Lightning invaded the Land of Earth. The four great ninja villages also began fighting each other. Only the Land of Water remained uninvolved. However, Kirigakure was not as peaceful as it seemed. The Third Mizukage Ghost Lantern Eiji, suddenly changed his personality and began a purge of some of the village's powerful clans. Some of the top clans were slowly eliminated by him.
As the war became localized, the front line was led by Hatake Sakumo into the Land of Wind. Tsunade and Orochimaru also returned to Konoha with a group of ninjas. As for Jiraiya, it is said that he stayed in the Land of Rain to travel.
Konoha held a grand celebration for the ninjas' return. Tianqi, wearing a cat-face mask, watched from the shadows as Orochimaru and Tsunade returned. "Having been through the brutal baptism of war, Orochimaru and Tsunade, you should have grown considerably by now!"
"Tsunade, you still have a long way to go. You must hold on!" Seeing that there was no smile on Tsunade's face, Tianqi shook his head helplessly. If it weren't for that mission from the system, he could have stayed by his wife and children's side. Unfortunately, there are no "ifs" in life.
Upon returning to Konoha, Tsunade, because of Tianqi and her younger brother, threw herself into the Konoha hospital and began researching various medical techniques. It was through this research that she met Dan Katō, the purple-haired man in the original story who could use the Spirit Transformation Technique. Perhaps because Dan Katō Tenten talked about becoming Hokage, and was similar to her deceased younger brother, she and Dan Katō became close friends.
Tianqi watched Tsunade and Dan Katō walking together Tenten, and he wasn't jealous at all. Even when Tsunade gave Dan Katō her family heirloom pendant, Tianqi didn't show any expression. The name "Death Pendant" wasn't given lightly. With this pendant, Dan Katō wouldn't be far from death. There was really no need to be jealous over a short-lived person.
In the 36th year of Konoha, the day before the end of the Second Shinobi World War, Hatake Sakumo led the Konoha ninjas to victory after victory in the Land of Wind. Tsunade, who was researching medicine, also cured Chiyo Chiyo's poison. Hatake Sakumo even killed Chiyo Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law while defending the camp, which foreshadowed the Third Shinobi World War.
Dan Katō, that short-lived man, also died that year. Tsunade, upon receiving the pendant and the sacrifice of her best friend, suffered from hemophobia and was no longer able to participate in the war or medical research. Disappointed, she left Konoha with Dan Katō's little niece, Shizune, leaving behind her five-year-old Senju Sen.
