First Encounter with Sannin

Returning home, Tianqi activated his system and fell into thought as he looked at his 440,000 points.

My current strength is sufficient. I don't need to rush the Eternal Eye for now. The only problem is my Chakra.

Uchiha inherently have a weak point in their Chakra. I haven't heard of any Uchiha with abundant Chakra. Uchiha focus on quality over quantity, fully utilizing every bit of their Chakra to maximize ninjutsu power.

My situation isn't suitable for that. I don't plan to focus on quality; I intend to focus on quantity, using a massive amount of Chakra to suppress enemies.

He set his sights on the Tailed Beasts. The ones in the ninja world were out of the question; anyone who dared to steal a village's Tailed Beast would likely trigger a war.

The ninja world's Tailed Beasts were a no-go. Tianqi turned his gaze to the system store.

One-Tails Shukaku costs 1,000 points. Two-Tails Matatabi costs 5,000 points. Three-Tails Isobu costs 10,000 points. Four-Tails Son Goku costs 20,000 points. Five-Tails Kokuō costs 50,000 points. Six-Tails Saiken costs 100,000 points. Seven-Tails Chōmei costs 150,000 points. Eight-Tails Gyūki costs 200,000 points. Nine-Tails Kurama costs 300,000 points. Ten-Tails costs 500,000 points. (Note: To exchange for the Ten-Tails, you must first exchange for the other nine Tailed Beasts.)

[Tailed Beasts exchanged through the system will permanently reside within the host and cannot be extracted. The exchanged Tailed Beasts will unconditionally obey the host, who can then use their power or even summon them.]

"Tch, I thought I could directly exchange for the Ten-Tails. Disappointing," Tianqi chuckled at the 500,000 points for the Ten-Tails, only to lose interest upon seeing the note.

After a moment of thought, Tianqi directly exchanged for the Nine-Tails and the One-Tails through Five-Tails, a total of six Tailed Beasts, consuming 386,000 points and leaving 54,000 points.

As for why he didn't just spend 100,000 points to get the Six-Tails, it was because the number of tails didn't directly correlate to strength, but rather to the amount of Chakra.

Tianqi felt that having the Nine-Tails was enough. Since he could use the power of the other five Tailed Beasts, he considered them as enhancements to his strength.

Upon completion of the exchange, the Tailed Beasts transformed into beams of light and merged into Tianqi's body.

"Hahaha, with these few Chakra batteries, I can walk sideways from now on!" Tianqi laughed aloud as he felt the energy of the Tailed Beasts within him.

"However, I still lack ninjutsu that can decide a battle in one move." Tianqi then set his sights on the Rasenshuriken and Lightning Release: Kirin. Both were S-rank ninjutsu, costing 20,000 points each. Looking at his remaining 54,000 points, Tianqi gritted his teeth and exchanged for both.

He already knew Rasengan and Chidori. If he didn't exchange for these, Rasengan and Chidori might never get a chance to appear again.

The next day, Tianqi left early for an open space in the forest behind the mountain.

Tianqi hid in a tree, observing the three people below until past ten in the morning.

"Didn't the old man say a new captain would lead us today? Why aren't they here yet? So unreliable," the white-haired boy grumbled, sitting on the ground.

"Alright, Jiraiya, stop with the nonsense. Can't you just stay quiet like Orochimaru? The new captain will arrive sooner or later," the blonde girl said, though her face showed impatience.

The other pale-skinned boy sat on the ground and began to sense his Chakra.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Tianqi jumped down from the tree and slowly walked towards the three.

The three also noticed Tianqi approaching them.

"Huh? Big brother, are you here to train?" Looking at the young man who wasn't much older than himself, Jiraiya didn't even consider him the new captain.

"Big brother, it's almost noon. Why don't we eat lunch and then you can come? I don't know when our captain will arrive," Jiraiya skillfully slung an arm around Tianqi's shoulder.

"I am your new captain."

Tianqi looked at Jiraiya with amusement. This guy was truly friendly. No wonder he would travel all over the ninja world later; with such social skills, he was a social butterfly, no, a social weed.

Jiraiya, who had Tianqi in an embrace, and the other two looked disbelieving. Their captain had said yesterday that a strong individual would be sent. The young man before them was only about seven or eight years older than them, at most a Chunin, nowhere near a strong individual.

"Big brother, stop joking. How could you be our new captain? Our previous captain said the new captain would be a super strong person." Looking at the young man, Jiraiya continued to hold Tianqi's shoulder.

"Do I not look like a strong person?" Tianqi narrowed his eyes and smiled at Jiraiya, who was hugging him.

Seeing Tianqi say that, Jiraiya let go of his arm around Tianqi's shoulder.

Watching Jiraiya release his grip, Tianqi looked at the three and said, "I am your new captain, Tianqi. From now on, we will complete missions together happily."

"Hmph, you made us wait here all morning. What right do you have to be our captain? If you want us to acknowledge you, defeat the three of us with your strength, otherwise, we won't be convinced!" Hearing the person claim to be the new captain again, Jiraiya believed him and jumped forward, pointing at Tianqi.

Orochimaru and Tsunade didn't speak, but they agreed with Jiraiya's words. It wasn't for any other reason than the person before them was simply too young.

"Mm, I agree with what you said. The ninja world indeed runs on strength. However, fighting you three is unnecessary. I have a better way to prove myself."

Hearing that he wouldn't fight them but had a way to prove his strength, the three exchanged confused glances and looked at Tianqi, wondering how he would prove it.

A smile crept onto Tianqi's lips. He then mimicked the move Tobirama Senju used to intimidate Sasuke during the Fourth Great Ninja War. A powerful energy erupted, cracking the ground around Tianqi. The powerful aura generated by the energy surged towards the three.

"What! So strong!" The three were directly blown back by the aura.

Watching the three retreat three meters, Tianqi retracted his energy and smiled at them, "So, does this prove I can be your captain?"

The three quickly nodded, their hearts shocked. What a formidable guy! Just releasing his Chakra has such power. Imagine if he actually fought! Fortunately, we didn't.

Seeing the three cowed and timid, Tianqi found it amusing. Tobirama Senju's move was quite effective. Even the second son with Mangekyo Sharingan was intimidated, let alone the three of them.

"Let's all introduce ourselves. I'll go first. Let me say it again, my name is Tianqi, Uchiha Tianqi, 16 years old, and I will be your leading Jonin from now on." Tianqi began his self-introduction without waiting for them.

"Hmm, Uchiha?" The three were surprised that their new captain was an Uchiha.

Seeing their strange looks, Tianqi looked at them with a playful sneer, "You guys don't happen to have any prejudice against Uchihas, do you?"
