Tianqi Was Crazy?

Sen'u glared at Uchiha Fugaku. This guy was really annoying. No wonder the people in the village hated the Uchiha even more than they hated them. He had no strength but was arrogant everywhere. I really wanted to beat him up!

Suppressing the urge to punch someone, Sen'u whispered to Uchiha Mikoto, "It's like this, recently Anbu ninja said he wants to take me as his apprentice, and I'm struggling with whether to accept. Mikoto, what do you think about this?"

"Anbu Ninja? I remember that's a department that carries out special missions. With your qualifications, you could easily become an apprentice of the Sen'u Third Hokage or some other expert. Why would you want to become his apprentice?" Uchiha Mikoto said with a puzzled look. To be honest, she really didn't think it was a good idea to become an apprentice of an Anbu Ninja.

"I know, but that Anbu Ninja is different. He's quite capable!" Sen'u shook his head. He had already considered what Uchiha Mikoto was talking about, but an Anbu Ninja who knows Ninjutsu that Konoha Ninja almost never use must be very strong. That's why he was so conflicted.

To be honest, he didn't want to take on an ordinary person as his master. Even the current Third Hokage was just so-so in his eyes, nothing special. He wanted to take on someone with special abilities as his master, and that Sani fit his criteria perfectly. However, he had only met that guy for the first time and didn't know what kind of person he was. It was definitely not a good idea to take him on as a master rashly.

"Some skill? How much skill can an Anbu Ninja have? If he could rival the current White Fang of Konoha, it wouldn't be a problem to become his apprentice. But does he even have any real abilities?" Uchiha Mikoto immediately became somewhat disdainful. She had never heard of any great masters among the Anbu Ninja. Even if they were skilled, they were just so-so. How strong could they be?

"That's right, if he has great strength, what's wrong with becoming his disciple? Thank you, Mikoto!" Upon hearing this, Sen'u immediately understood. If Sani really had great strength, becoming his disciple wouldn't be a problem.

It has to be said that these are all children. They judge people based on strength and weakness, without considering the other person's character or personality, or whether they are a bad person. If Tianqi were a bad person, these little devils would probably have been sold out by him and would even be counting the money for him.

"By the way, Mikoto, this is my secret. I've only told you, so you have to keep it a secret and not tell anyone else!" After saying that, Sen'u patted Uchiha Mikoto on the shoulder.

"Um... okay."

Uchiha Mikoto had originally intended to offer some words of advice to Sen'u, but after hearing what Sen'u said and feeling the sudden pat on the shoulder, she couldn't bring herself to say anything. She just kept blushing. "Sen'u- nii only told me his secret... is he...?"

Seeing Uchiha Mikoto's shy expression, Fugaku was so angry he wanted to devour Senju Sen alive. "Uchiha Fugaku Senju Sen, how dare you flirt with my Mikoto! I'm not done with you yet!"

Hearing that Uchiha Mikoto promised not to gossip, Sen'u smiled and ran towards the school. Having figured things out, he felt relaxed and full of energy again.

After finishing her classes for the day, Sen'u quickly ran out of the school and headed towards the place Back Mountain where she had arranged to meet Sani.

As for Tianqi, he had been waiting in the woods Back Mountain for a long time. Today, he did not follow Sen'u, but stayed in the Back Mountain. He also wanted to see how his son Sen'u would choose. If he could not even seize the opportunity presented to him, then he would have to reconsider how to teach him. A conservative and a daring person are not the same.

"Tianqi, the little guy is heading this way. It seems you weren't scared off by him yesterday. It's quite interesting that he dares to come here today!" White Zetsu appeared beside Tianqi and said with a smile.

Tianqi leaned against the tree trunk, listening to White Zetsu's words. A slight smile appeared on his lips. "As expected of my good son, his adventurous spirit alone is enough to earn my respect. I would be too disappointed if he were a conservative. Fortunately, Sen'u, you are not."

"Hey! I'm here! Where are you? Come out right now!" Arriving at the same spot as yesterday, and seeing no one around, Sen'u shouted loudly.

"What do you mean 'hey'? Didn't I tell you my name is Sani? How can you be so rude? But you must have already decided to become my disciple, right? I'm really surprised that you've come to this conclusion!" Seeing Sen'u arrive, Tianqi jumped down from the tree trunk, squinted at him, and said with a smile.

"I've thought about it. If you have abilities comparable to White Fang of Konoha, I'll become your apprentice. You know White Fang of Konoha, right?" Sen'u said earnestly, looking at Sani.

"White Fang of Konoha?" Tianqi was a little surprised to hear this. He thought the child had come to seek apprenticeship after realizing his mistake, but it turned out he didn't believe in his strength and came to challenge him. This was truly unexpected. Tianqi's eyes darted around and he laughed, "Hahaha, White Fang of Konoha? You must be Hatake Sakumo, a defeated opponent. Comparing me to him is too narrow-minded!"

A defeated opponent? Damn! This guy's bragging again. If you could beat White Fang, you wouldn't just be some nobody Anbu Ninja now. I don't believe you for a second! Sen'u rolled her Byakugan at Sani.

Seeing that Sen'u didn't believe him and even rolled his Byakugan, Tianqi continued, "Kid, don't be so skeptical. Not only White Fang, but even the Konoha Sannin and the Third Hokage were defeated by me!"

Tianqi wasn't lying; his true form had indeed defeated several people before. He wasn't exaggerating when it came to that, though whether anyone believed him was another matter.

"Why don't you say that even the First Hokage, the God of Shinobi, was defeated by you? Please, if you're so great, stop bragging!" Qianyu looked at Sani speechlessly. He was starting to wonder if this guy had been released from a mental hospital or had forgotten to take his medication. He was really too boastful.

"Huh? How did you know I defeated the First Hokage? You even guessed that correctly! That's impressive!" Tianqi immediately gave him a thumbs up. His son was indeed clever to have guessed that.

"Crazy!" Looking at the person in front of her, Sen'u was certain that he was indeed a lunatic. Damn it! I actually spent a whole night thinking about what a lunatic said. What a waste of my time. Sen'u turned around and was about to leave.

"You're crazy!" Tianqi's lips twitched upon hearing this. It seemed that his son wasn't smart, but rather that he was being treated like a lunatic. But upon closer reflection, it made sense. No one would believe these words anyway, but even if they didn't believe them, there was no need to call him a lunatic. This brat was truly infuriating.

Suppressing the urge to beat his son, Tianqi said calmly, "It was just a joke. Young people these days are so easily fooled!"

Upon hearing this, Sen'u stopped in his tracks and turned back, saying seriously, "If you don't demonstrate your formidable strength, I will never become your disciple!"
