"I'm here to say goodbye to you."

Crows gathered in front of Naruto, gradually revealing Itachi's withered and rotten body.

He seemed to have thrown away all the burdens on him and said to Naruto with a smile.

Naruto was not at all surprised by Itachi's sudden visit.

Perhaps from the moment he handed the thing to him, Naruto had already expected this day to come.

"Have you...completed the pregnancy?"

"Yes, now all that's left is to sacrifice this rotten body and turn my soul into nutrients and inject it into it."

Itachi said it easily, but how much pain he had to endure in this process...outsiders can't imagine it at all.

"If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the last time we meet."

"..."

"After I leave, please take good care of Sasuke, after all, you are his most trusted friend now."

"..."

"Later, the crow will bring my eyes to you. Please pass them to Sasuke for me."

"..."

Itachi kept talking, and Naruto didn't answer.

Because Naruto didn't know what he should say at this moment.

Itachi was not talking to himself, but rather telling himself his last words.

"...Okay, I should go."

Although Naruto didn't say anything, Itachi knew that Naruto had remembered what he told him.

Everything that should be said had been said, and Itachi was ready to leave here to find a quiet place to meet his final end.

At this moment...

"Wait a minute!"

Naruto stopped Itachi who was about to leave.

People have feelings, and a trace of reluctance flashed across his eyes after all.

No matter what outsiders think of Itachi, Naruto always feels that a person like him should not end up like this...

This lonely death in some deserted corner.

Perhaps...

At this moment, Naruto suddenly found the best person to go to the Iron Country for rescue.

"You are a member of the Akatsuki organization. Even if you die... you should die on the battlefield to break the haze for the ninja world and welcome the first dawn!"

"Go to the Iron Country. Soon Ai will lead the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village to attack the Iron Country. At that time, you will escort the surviving citizens of the Iron Country here...

Don't worry, I won't send anyone to help you."

"This is the last thing you do for the organization before you die."

There was a hint of pleading in Naruto's words. This was the most suitable way for Itachi to end his life.

"...Okay."

After the atmosphere at the scene was silent for a moment, Itachi finally nodded and agreed.

Hualala~

The black crow feathers slowly slid down, and countless crows spread their wings, carrying the most miserable man in the Naruto world to his last battlefield.

At the same time, next to Itachi's wooden house.

Uchiha Izumi dug a big pit alone and buried some of Itachi's clothes in the pit.

She knew that Itachi would not even leave his body, but this did not prevent her from building a tomb for the man she loved, even if it was just a cenotaph...

[Oh, and there is a tombstone. 】

Uchiha Izumi walked back to her house and slowly carried out the bluestone tombstone she had prepared.

As soon as Uchiha Izumi, who was carrying the tombstone, walked out of the door, he felt a lightness on his shoulders.

A pair of strong hands were placed under the tombstone, supporting the weight of the entire tombstone for her.

"Nonsense! How can a pregnant woman do such heavy work?!"

The man exerted a little effort, and the bluestone tombstone came to his shoulders.

"...Leave it to me."

The tears that filled Uchiha Izumi's eyes could no longer be controlled at this moment. She opened her lips and whispered the man's name.

"Mr. Fugaku."

"...You should call me father."

Uchiha Fugaku carried the tombstone and walked towards the mound where Itachi's clothes were buried. Uchiha Izumi followed him silently.

There, Uchiha Mikoto stood quietly with a sad look on her face.

"Mei..."

Uchiha Izumi was about to speak when she was gently embraced by Uchiha Mikoto.

"You did a good job, kid. I thank you on behalf of Itachi..."

Uchiha Mikoto hugged Uchiha Izumi and said gently.

"This is the choice of my silly son. You don't have to feel sad for him.

And you, Izumi..."

Uchiha Fugaku placed the tombstone and turned his head to look directly into Uchiha Izumi's eyes.

"As my daughter-in-law, you should go home with me."

...

"You, you and Lady Mikoto know about it?"

Uchiha Izumi's voice trembled, and there was a look of disbelief on his face.color.

Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto did not say anything, which was considered as tacit agreement.

These two silly children thought they hid well, but they didn't know...

On every quiet night, a pair of worried parents cast their eyes on the two small wooden houses in the corner of the Hidden Rain Village.

A child can hide what he is thinking from everyone, but he can't hide it from his parents.

Every decision made by these two children in these years, every thing they have experienced...

Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto know it clearly... including Itachi's choice to sacrifice himself to help his brother.

The two old men knew it, but they didn't show up to stop it.

Because their son Itachi... has lived a very hard life.

Since this is Itachi's own choice, there is no reason for them to stop it.

But not stopping it doesn't mean that the two parents won't feel heartbroken.

The mother who always wakes up from her dream and cries all night long because she thinks of her eldest son;

The father who has always been upset because it was Naruto who taught Itachi this way, and has often found various reasons to teach Naruto a lesson over the years...

They all know it, but they just don't say it.

They are waiting, waiting for the day when their son will complete the path he has chosen.

They are also waiting... for the day when they can personally take their son home.

Now they have finally waited...

...

"Quan, you go home with your mother.

I... go to talk to Naruto."

Before he finished speaking, thunder suddenly sounded, and Uchiha Fugaku's figure disappeared from the spot.

And outside the building in the center of the Hidden Rain Village, a violent demolition maniac who lost his beloved son is about to come.

...

Boom! ! !

The roof of the building was completely lifted up, revealing Naruto sitting at his desk with a confused look on his face.

"Uzumaki Naruto, do you know how long I have endured for this day?!"

Uchiha Fugaku, who was placed on top of Susanoo, was full of murderous intent.

"This is a personal grudge between Uzumaki Naruto and me... If you don't want to be affected, leave now!"

Buzz! ! !

The giant shuriken spun rapidly, and the air waves it brought made Naruto's scalp numb.

Naruto: (((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))...
