The System Gives Tianqi a Mission

The day after Itachi left, the system, which had been silent for several years, started to move again.

[Ding! System mission issued: Use the Phantom Spirit Extraction Technique provided by the system, along with Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo as a medium, to extract the power of the world's will, recharge the system, and allow you to jump to other dimensions. This is a free mission; the mission will always be available to the host, who can accept or decline at any time!]

Upon hearing the system's voice, Tianqi was immediately speechless.

"Tch! Why would I, with a house full of children and grandchildren, need to power you up to jump to other dimensions? What good would that do me? This system must be a joke!"

[Ding! System notification: No new tasks will be issued after this task is not completed!]

"If you don't want to send it, then don't. I'm already invincible in the Hokage world, so I don't care about missions at all!" Tianqi immediately rolled his Byakugan again.

Despite his complaints, Tianqi carefully considered the system's purpose. Although the system had been forcing him to perform tasks before, it had always granted him powerful abilities. It was very unusual that there were no rewards this time!

"System, please explain to me how this dimensional jump technique works?"

I thought the system would remain aloof and unresponsive as before, but this time it surprisingly gave me a reply.

[Ding! Dimensional jumping means going to other worlds. You can think of it as time travel, but this time you'll be traveling with your current body. The specific dimension you jump to is random!]

"Hmm? It's strange that the system actually replied this time!" Although he was a little surprised that the system replied, Tianqi didn't think too much about it. After all, if the system really wanted to kill him, there was nothing he could do. But at this moment, Tianqi raised another question.

"By the way, System, can I take my family with me to other dimensions?"

After Tianqi asked the question, the system didn't reply immediately. After waiting blankly for a minute, the system's voice sounded again.

[This question cannot be answered. The system has internal space for carrying people, but this requires special authorization, which I cannot decide!]

"Special authorization?" Tianqi's eyes narrowed slightly after hearing the system's words, his brain working at lightning speed. Authorization? That means there's someone above the system, and this seemingly powerful system is actually just a tool!

Upon reaching this conclusion, Tianqi was immediately shocked. What kind of person could create such a heaven-defying tool as a system? Could it be a creator god or a ruler from some higher plane?

Putting those speculations aside, Tianqi spoke again, "So, you mean you can take people to other dimensions, but you need the permission of certain powerful figures, right?"

This time, the system didn't reply. Seeing that the system wasn't giving a direct answer, Tianqi frowned slightly and asked again, "Since you won't answer that, can you tell me how to obtain this special authorization?"

There is no way to obtain authorization unless that special person descends upon this world in person!

The system's words implicitly acknowledged that there were indeed people on its platform.

Upon hearing this, Tianqi fell into deep thought. There really was someone on the system; who was this person? And what was their purpose?

After some thought, Tianqi still couldn't come up with anything. He was just an ordinary Earthling, what could he possibly have that would make such a big shot covet him? Besides, without the system, he would never have his current strength.

However, Tianqi also realized something at this moment. Since he had nothing that others would covet, he could act without restraint. Since the people above could obtain such a heaven-defying tool as the system, taking his family out of the Hokage world would definitely be a piece of cake, provided that he could meet that being.

"System, tell me, will I ever meet that special being you mentioned in my lifetime?"

[Yes, you can see the host according to the trajectory I set, and the trajectory will be displayed more than once!]

"Trajectory? And not just once? System, can you predict the future?" After hearing the system's words, Tianqi asked excitedly, but the system seemed to disappear and did not give any further response.

Damn it! The system is still the same old cunning system, nothing's changed!

"Since that's the case, then I'll accept this task. I'm just idling around anyway, might as well find something to do. System, accept task!"

As soon as Tianqi finished speaking, the Phantom Spirit Extraction Technique provided by the system appeared in his mind, and he instantly understood the meaning of the technique.

"So that's how it is. It's a Barrier Ninjutsu similar to trapping spirits. But the system said it uses Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo as a medium to extract the power of the world's will, which means Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo is related to the world's will. I understand now. If we compare the world's will to the mystical Heavenly Dao, then Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo is the representative of the Heavenly Dao, similar to a situation of merging with the Dao. Through Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, one can obtain the power of the world's will. I see!"

Through the Phantom Spirit Extraction Technique, Tianqi immediately understood the key to the technique's operation.

"But Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo is gone. Where can we find him?" Jutsu and Yunxing understood, but Tianqi was still troubled by the matter of Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo.

After thinking for more than ten minutes, the image of Uchiha Madara appeared in his mind. Tianqi immediately slapped his head hard and said, "Oh dear, look at my stupid brain! The former Hokage, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, appeared using Madara's lower body during the Fourth Shinobi World War Hokage! I just need to wait for him to appear!"

With the target identification technique in place, all that remained was to find someone to activate the Phantom Spirit Extraction Technique. This was a technique requiring a hundred people to activate. Although Tianqi could also perform it by splitting off a clone, he didn't intend to do it himself. Instead, he wanted to entrust it to his clansmen and have them act together.

While Tianqi was finalizing things, Tsunade and Karura also entered the study where Tianqi was.

"Tsunade? Karura? What brings you here?"

"Um... Tianqi, Tsunade has something to say to you!" Karura hesitated for a moment, then finally passed the words to Tsunade.

"What are you doing? Just say what you want to say!" Tianqi looked at the two hesitant people, his face also full of doubt.

"Let me explain. Tianqi, it's like this: we're so bored staying here all day. How about we go explore the Shinobi World together? There are so many fun things out there that even Karura hasn't seen yet. Or we could just go out..."

Hearing Tsunade's words, Tianqi instantly understood what she meant. The clan members were all family and there was no casino here. He guessed that Tsunade's gambling addiction had kicked in.
