The ninjas of Iwagakure also discovered the situation at the Tsuchikage's building.
"This is bad, enemy invasion! Hurry and protect Lord Tsuchikage!" A large group of ninjas rushed towards the Tsuchikage. The village also sounded the alarm, and in an instant, Iwagakure was thrown into chaos.
At this moment, Ōnoki looked at the giant Susanoo and knelt directly on the ground. "What... what have I done?" He finally regained his senses, shocked by the massive Susanoo. There was no Uchiha Madara before him, only the colossal Susanoo and Tianqi standing within its body.
The ninjas who had arrived near the building immediately launched an attack on the giant Susanoo.
"Earth Style - Earth Dragon Bullet Technique!"
"Earth Style - Rock Iron Fist Technique!"
"Earth Style - Earth Rising Spear!"
Various ninjutsu attacked Tianqi, who watched as if nothing was happening.
"Attacks of this level can't break through Susanoo's defense at all. Since you've made a move, don't blame me." Susanoo directly condensed two Chakra blades in its hand.
Tianqi, controlling Susanoo, directly slashed towards Iwagakure. BOOM! With each slash, terrifying blade energy shot out fifty meters. Huge cracks appeared on the streets, houses were destroyed, and a dozen ninjas lost their lives.
Tianqi continued to reap the lives of the Stone Ninjas, one after another, while the surrounding houses collapsed entirely.
Ōnoki watched his village being destroyed and his ninjas being slaughtered. Yet, they kept charging forward. The fear that had previously dominated him, controlled by Susanoo, slowly began to disappear with the ninjas' charge.
"As the Tsuchikage, am I inferior to these ninjas who are fighting desperately? I'm not afraid anymore! Susanoo, here I come!" Ōnoki mustered his courage and charged directly at Tianqi.
"This is Iwagakure! Konoha ninja, you've gone too far! Earth Style - Super Weighted Rock Technique!"
Ōnoki used the Super Weighted Rock to encase his fist and, catching Tianqi off guard, punched Susanoo, sending it flying. This Super Weighted Rock ninjutsu can add weight to anything, with the maximum weight being as heavy as a mountain.
"It's the Tsuchikage! It's Lord Tsuchikage! Lord Tsuchikage is here!" Seeing the giant repelled and Ōnoki appear, the crowd erupted in cheers.
Tianqi, who had been caught off guard and sent flying, turned to look at Ōnoki. "Not bad, Ōnoki. You've got some spirit."
"Konoha ninja, are you trying to provoke a war between the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire?" Ōnoki roared at Tianqi.
"A war is unlikely. The purpose of my visit today is simply to tell you not to overstep your bounds." Hearing the word "war," Tianqi stopped his attack.
"Since you don't want to start a war, then stop immediately! Isn't destroying so many of my houses and ninjas enough!" Ōnoki gritted his teeth and yelled at Tianqi, looking at the ruined houses and the scattered bodies of ninjas.
"Lord Tsuchikage, you can't just let him go! He killed so many of our brothers, he must pay with blood!" Seeing that Ōnoki intended to let Tianqi go, everyone immediately spoke up.
"Enough, all of you, shut up! Haven't we suffered enough losses? Do you have the confidence to take him down?" Ōnoki reprimanded those who had spoken.
Seeing that Lord Tsuchikage was angry, the ninjas could only shut their mouths and stare at Tianqi with furious expressions.
"I won't invade other countries anymore. What do you say, Konoha ninja?" Ōnoki looked at Tianqi, awaiting his answer.
"Since you're so sensible, I won't play with you anymore. No need for the Complete Body Susanoo." Tianqi agreed, but not without a veiled threat to Ōnoki, implying he still had the Complete Body Susanoo and that they'd better not cause trouble.
"Then let's call it a truce. Now, get out of the Land of Earth immediately. You are never welcome here." Seeing that Tianqi agreed to stop, Ōnoki waved his hand and issued the order to leave.
"Tch, who would want to come to such a barren place?" With that, Tianqi prepared to leave.
"Wait, Konoha ninja, leave your name." Ōnoki called out as Tianqi was about to depart.
"What for? Want revenge? Listen carefully, my name is Tianqi Uchiha Tianqi. I am your eternal nightmare. If you want revenge, I'll be waiting for you anytime." Tianqi said to the ninjas.
Uchiha Tianqi, an Uchiha? He must be a descendant of that person. No wonder he looks so similar and is so strong. "Uchiha Tianqi, I will definitely report what happened here to your Konoha Hokage and demand an explanation!" Ōnoki thought for a moment and said fiercely.
"Whatever you want. I don't care anyway." Tianqi heard the implication in Ōnoki's words – that he couldn't defeat him, so he would find his Kage to punish him. But Ōnoki was overthinking it; Tianqi was genuinely indifferent. Who dared to punish him? If pushed, he'd just take over and become Hokage himself. Then, Tianqi activated Kamui and directly left Iwagakure.
"Hmph... I don't believe you don't care. Even if you really don't care, I will report this to Sarutobi Hiruzen and have him expel you from Konoha, reducing Konoha's combat power. I, Ōnoki of Both Scales, will remember this grudge against Konoha."
"What are you all still standing around for! Hurry up and clean up this mess!" Ōnoki ordered, seeing everyone still staring at him.
It had to be said that Ōnoki had the final say in all of Iwagakure, which was much better than Konoha.
After this battle, Tianqi's name, Tianqi Asura, spread throughout Iwagakure. Ōnoki even issued an order: if any ninja encountered Uchiha Tianqi on a mission, they could immediately abandon their mission without any punishment.
At this moment, Tianqi was unaware of this. He was continuously using Kamui to warp, and it took about an hour to reach the resting place of Tsunade and the others. Who would believe that someone could traverse two countries in a few hours and attack a major ninja village?
As Tianqi pushed open the Gate of Opening, Jiraiya and the other two saw him.
"Big Brother Tianqi, you're back. Did you take care of those fleeing ninjas?" Jiraiya asked.
"Yes, yes. Your clone disappeared earlier, and I thought something had happened to you. Uh... we..." Tsunade said shyly.
Orochimaru showed no surprise when he saw Tianqi return. With his strength, dealing with these rookies would be a piece of cake.
Tianqi awkwardly rubbed his nose. If he told them he had attacked Iwagakure, they would be scared to death. He then said, "It's nothing, just some minor figures. They were easy to deal with."
At this moment, Tang He also entered. "Oh, Lord Tianqi, you're still here taking care of them." He had heard their names from Jiraiya and the others; Tang He had no idea Tianqi had left. He had just returned.
"Tang He, the mission is complete. Arrange some food and lodging for me. I need to rest well for a few days. I'm exhausted from this period." Tianqi said to Tang He.
"No problem, you are the hero of our Land of Hot Water. Rest well here for a while, and the people of the Land of Hot Water will surely treat you well." Tang He said happily to Tianqi. Tianqi had resolved the enemy, and everyone was free. No one would force them to work anymore, so he was naturally happy.
"Alright, no need to be so formal. Just be normal. You three, take good care of your injuries. I'm going to have dinner with Tang He and then rest." With that, Tianqi left with Tang He.
After dinner, Tianqi lay on the bed arranged by Tang He, looking at the ceiling and thinking, "This incident in Iwagakure has blown up. Returning to the village will likely bring endless trouble. I should take advantage of this time to rest for a few days."
"On the way back, I'll teach Jiraiya the Rasengan. I probably won't have time once we get back to the village." Tianqi fell asleep as he thought. Although his body was fine after the battle, his spirit was somewhat overwhelmed.
