Time slipped by, second by second.
Only after a long while did Qian open his eyes again.
And at that moment, a flicker of joy flashed through his eyes.
Just as the Wood Clone had said, what it wanted to tell him was indeed good news.
According to the latest intelligence the Wood Clone had obtained, the Three-Tails, which had died together with Rin Nohara near the end of the Third Great Ninja War, seemed to be on the verge of revival.
Although there was no definite news yet, all signs indicated that Karatachi Yagura was already making preparations.
And as the owner of the Three-Tails, Kirigakure definitely understood its condition better than he did. Since Karatachi Yagura, now the Fourth Mizukage, had judged that the Three-Tails was about to revive, he had no reason to doubt it.
So he had to prepare early.
As for whether he should still compete with Kirigakure for the Three-Tails when he was not exactly lacking Chakra right now...
The answer to that was naturally yes.
When it came to something like Chakra, the more the better.
Only that way, when he needed to use it, would he not have his hands tied.

Now that the Three-Tails was about to revive, how could he possibly remain indifferent instead?
What was more, Obito Uchiha had his eye on Kirigakure now as well. Perhaps he had also received this news and was likewise interested in the Three-Tails, which made it even more impossible for Qian to hand it over.
Of course, the most important point was still that he was strong enough.
If his strength were lacking, forcibly getting involved in this matter
