Kakashi Hatake could sense that this stunningly beautiful woman was exceptionally powerful. He nodded, his voice tinged with wariness, and asked, "Yes, this is Konoha. Who are you? What country are you from? And why are you here?"
Tian Zhiyun smiled slightly, her voice gentle. "I am also a ninja from Konoha. My name is Tian Zhiyun, born in the third year of Konoha. May I ask, what year is it in Konoha now? What has happened in Konoha?"
Kakashi Hatake looked at her, a strange glint in his eyes. "Don't you know what year it is? You were born in Konoha's third year? Do you even know that Konoha has been around for over sixty years now?"
Tian Zhiyun's heart sank. She could sense that this world was vastly different from the world she knew. She continued to ask, "Then... what about the top fighters from Konoha who were my contemporaries? Hatake Sakumo, Might Duy, Tenmei, Nara Shikanei, Uchiha Bi, and the others? We graduated in the same year."
Kakashi Hatake shook his head, a hint of helplessness in his voice. " Konoha doesn't have many decent ninjas left. Many powerful ninjas have sacrificed themselves in the war. Now, all we can do is try our best to protect the village and prevent foreign invasion. Hatake Sakumo was my father, but he's been dead for twenty years."
Looking at the same white-haired old friend before her, Tian Zhiyun sighed and said, "Take me to see the current Lord Hokage!"
Kakashi Hatake awkwardly replied, " The Lord Hokage was killed by Orochimaru a few days ago, and Konoha is now leaderless. Only the Hokage Advisor, Mitokado Homura, and Elder Utatane Koharu are in charge. Shall I introduce you?"
Tian Zhiyun shook her head and said, "Thank you, Kakashi. As someone who was once a friend of your late father, let me give you a small gift." She took out a top-grade rune-inscribed longsword and a Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill from her spatial ring and handed them to Kakashi Hatake.
Kakashi awkwardly accepted the gifts and thanked them, unaware that these two gifts would later elevate his strength to the Super Kage Level. The Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill replenished all the deficiencies in his body, allowing his strength to break through to the Peak Kage Level. The rune-adorned Nagato was even more terrifying, making his combat power comparable to that of Super Kage Level expert. In subsequent battles, he single-handedly defeated Uchiha Itachi and Kisame Hoshigaki, and later even killed Deidara, Kakuzu, and Kakuzu and Obito Uchiha.
A strange sense of loss welled up in Tian Zhiyun's heart. She continued to wander through Konoha, trying to find some familiar figures. However, she discovered that this world was completely different from the world she knew. This Konoha had experienced three Shinobi World Wars, the Nine-Tails' Attack, the Uchiha Clan Massacre a few years ago, and Orochimaru's Orochimaru's Konoha Crush Plan three days ago. All of this made her feel extremely distressed and unfamiliar.
Just then, she encountered a pretty girl with her hair in a bun sitting in a corner of the village, a hint of sadness on her face. Tian Zhiyun walked over and softly asked, "Hello, I'm Tian Zhiyun. I sense a familiar aura about you. You look very sad, what happened?"
The girl looked up, a hint of surprise on her face. "Who are you? I don't recognize you."
Tian Zhiyun smiled slightly, her voice gentle. "I just returned to the village. I got lost in the river of time. Can you tell me your name?"
The girl nodded, her voice gentle. "My name is Tenten. My grandfather has been sick recently, and I'm very worried about him."
Tian Zhiyun's heart stirred; she could sense that this girl shared some kind of connection with her. She asked softly, "What's your grandfather's name?"
Tenten raised her head, a hint of pride on her face. "My grandfather's name is Tenmei. He's a weapons merchant in Konoha. You know my grandfather?"
Tian Zhiyun's heart skipped a beat; she could sense a connection between this girl and herself. She asked softly, " Tenmei? Your grandfather is Tenmei?"
Tenten nodded, a hint of doubt on her face. "Do you know my grandfather?"
Tian Zhiyun smiled slightly, her voice carrying a hint of warmth. "I once knew a man named Tenmei; he was my brother-in-law. I'm so glad to meet you here."
A hint of surprise flashed in Tenten's eyes, and her voice carried a touch of excitement. "Really? You really know my grandfather? Can you tell me something about him?"
Tian Zhiyun nodded, her voice tinged with emotion, "Of course." Then she began to recount the mischievous antics of Tenmei in another timeline when he was a child, though there were many things Tenten couldn't understand. However, the great-grandmother and great-grandfather that Tian Zhiyun mentioned matched up perfectly.
A tear glistened in Tenten's eyes, and her voice was filled with emotion. "Thank you, Tian Zhiyun. I'm so glad to have met you. You make me feel a sense of warmth."
Tian Zhiyun smiled slightly, her voice carrying a hint of warmth. "No need to thank me, Tenten. I'm so glad to meet you here. Let me give you a set of equipment." She took out a set of equipment made from the skin of a Katsuyu Sage and had Tenten bind it to her with his blood.
Tenten accepted the equipment and nodded, a hint of gratitude on her face. "Thank you, I'll remember you."
Tian Zhiyun wandered in this unfamiliar Mirai world for a long time, her heart filled with emotion. The development paths of each parallel universe were so different, and she finally understood the mystery and unpredictability of time and space. In this world, she did not find Tsubasa, nor did she find any trace of the Senju Clan. But she found Tenten, a girl with whom she had a connection, who brought her a touch of warmth in this strange world.
"Perhaps, this is fate's arrangement," Tian Zhiyun murmured to herself, a hint of emotion in her voice.
The afterglow of the setting sun spilled onto the streets of Konoha, adding a touch of warmth to this unfamiliar world. Tian Zhiyun stood on the Hokage Rock, her figure appearing particularly lonely in the afterglow of the setting sun, but her gaze held a hint of determination.
Standing atop the altar of the Country of Roran, Tian Zhiyun was filled with complex emotions. She had traveled through too many time periods and witnessed too many different worlds of Konoha, but ultimately, she decided to return to her own time. She took a deep breath and said to the Queen of Roran, "Your Majesty, thank you. I want to return to Konoha. I want to go back to my family and children."
The Queen nodded, a hint of understanding in her eyes. "I understand. Wherever you go, home will always be your home. I hope you find your husband, Lord Tsubasa."
Tian Zhiyun smiled slightly, her voice tinged with gratitude. "Thank you, Queen. Your help has taught me so much. I will remember you. You can come visit Konoha anytime; it's a completely different world from here. You'll love it there."
The Queen smiled gently, her voice carrying a hint of warmth. "Alright, I will come to find you. Go, Shiun. I believe that no matter how difficult the road Mirai may be, you will find your own happiness."
