Abandon Sen'u? How Could That Be?

Are you sure?

"I'm sure, do whatever you want with me, even if I lose my life, I won't blame you!"

Seeing that Tianqi didn't seem to be joking, Danzo said with interest, "You're quite ruthless to say such things to your own son. But the fact that you, who have always loved your son so much, have changed so quickly is a bit hard for me to understand."

"Heh, to put it bluntly, when have you ever truly seen through me Uchiha Tianqi? From beginning to end, neither you nor Sarutobi Hiruzen have been able to read my mind."

"That's true. There are too many mysteries surrounding you. It's really impossible to see through you completely. Well, it's better not to see through you. If I really saw through you, I would become even less confident. Alright, alright, that's enough. I've achieved my purpose for coming today, so I should go!" With that, Danzo stood up and prepared to leave.

Seeing that Danzo was about to leave, Tianqi said something indifferently.

"I don't know if you've ever heard this saying: ' Sharingan or failure both Sharingan. 'The Sharingan can only unleash its full power in the hands of the Uchiha. You don't really think Orochimaru's immature technology can give you much of a power boost, do you? Over-reliance on that thing will only lead to a bad end!"

Upon hearing Tianqi directly reveal the object on his arm and its origin, Danzo stopped in his tracks. He said with a serious expression, "I know this thing can't unleash its full power in my hands, but it can still boost my strength. Although it's not a huge boost, it's enough. You're not saying this because you want your family's things back from me, are you?"

"Hehe, I wouldn't even deign to take those people's stuff. No matter how good theirs are, can they compare to mine? I'm just saying this as a friendly reminder. Whether you listen to me or not is completely irrelevant to me!" Tianqi waved his hand dismissively.

He really looked down on this kind of power-enhancing method. The reason he said this was actually to kindly remind Danzo that if Danzo continued to rely on the Sharingan instead of improving his own strength, then Uchiha Sasuke's long sword would be waiting for him.

"Hmph, then I'll give you a heads-up: it's best not to wander around Konoha these next few years. Some people aren't what they used to be; your presence might make them wary. You'd better leave this troublesome place as soon as possible, lest certain people do something disgusting to you again!"

Tianqi naturally knew who these "certain people" were referring to, but since Danzo hadn't explicitly stated it, he didn't want to reveal it either.

"Hehe, you don't need to remind me of this. I figured it out years ago. Tomorrow I'll be setting off on my journey to the Shinobi World. I hope you can still be this relaxed when we meet again!"

"Leaving tomorrow? That's fine. It'll be about time for you to come back next time. I hope you can do a good job for me next time. After all, my time is running out. Have a safe journey!" After saying that, Danzo turned around and strode away with his two little Karami.

Watching Danzo's departing figure, Tianqi's lips curled into a slight smile as he murmured, "Next time you come back, you probably won't talk to me so calmly, Danzo!"

According to Tianqi's estimation, when he leaves this time and officially returns to Konoha next time, he should come back with Tsunade. That will also be the time when Tsunade succeeds as the Fifth Hokage. At that time, Danzo will definitely be furious.

Seeing that the annoying old man was gone, Karura finally couldn't hold back and spoke up.

"Tianqi, I'm not trying to be mean, but you really went too far. Sen'u is your own son. No matter how much you dislike him, you shouldn't have pushed him into this mess! I just can't accept this!"

"You yourself said that Sen'u is my own son, how could I harm him? I'm just doing this to teach him a lesson. Years ago, I warned him that Konoha's murky waters weren't so easy to wade into, but he just wouldn't listen and kept insisting on getting involved. This time, I can use the Konoha High Command to teach him a good lesson and let him know what the wickedness of society is!"

"Even if you want to teach the child a lesson, it doesn't mean you should just throw your life away. That's going too far..."

"Are you trying to say I'm heartless and cold-blooded? Karura, you're completely overthinking it. With me around, there's no way Sen'u, that brat, will ever be able to bury his son. Don't forget how I brought you back!"

Hearing Tianqi say this, Karura's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "You mean you can use that method many times?"

"Hehe, I can use it as many times as I want, no problem. That brat shouldn't even think about getting ahead of me. Even if he's dismembered, I can pull him back from the underworld!"

"Oh, so you're fearless because you have nothing to fear. No wonder you said such cold-blooded things before. But aren't you afraid that Sen'u will hold a grudge against you?"

"He wouldn't hold a grudge, but he's definitely feeling a bit uncomfortable. However, I believe that having gone through a life-and-death experience, he'll see things more clearly now, and he'll be grateful to me for this experience!"

"Thank you? Thank you for sending him to his death? Or thank you for not helping him or protecting him? Don't be ridiculous!" Karura looked at Tianqi speechlessly and started to criticize him.

Just as the two were talking, Mikoto, who had Danzo and the others off, slowly walked in.

Seeing his daughter-in-law arrive, Tianqi quickly whispered to Karura, "Alright, alright, quickly take back what you're saying. Don't let your mouth run wild. Mikoto can't find out about this, understand?"

"Okay, okay, I'm not a little kid anymore. I know what I should and shouldn't say!"

After Mikoto approached Tianqi, she asked, "Father, did Danzo give you any trouble?"

"How could I possibly cause them trouble? Mikoto, didn't you see how well they got along, like lovers? How could that old man cause him any trouble over something so trivial!"

Seeing Karura answer first and then make sarcastic remarks, Tianqi was speechless. Is this still the Karura I know? How come he's so sarcastic? He's always either trying to sabotage someone or on his way to doing so!

Upon hearing Karura's words, Mikoto also looked at Tianqi, wondering if it was true.

"Ahem... well... Danzo and I have a bit of a history, so he's willing to give me face. Mikoto, you don't need to worry at all!"

"I see, then I'm relieved."

"Oh, by the way, Mikoto, there's something I need to discuss with you, what do you think..."

"Discuss it with me? Father, just tell me what it is."

Seeing that her father-in-law wanted to discuss something with her, she was surprised and also a little puzzled. What could possibly make him act this way?
