This Uchiha Itachi is very lonely

Speaking of which...

This fierce-looking man is indeed very familiar. It seems that he had seen it the day he returned to the village from the battlefield. It was the man named Uchiha Qingmen.

"There is also this useless child, thank you Captain for rescuing him on the battlefield."

Chapter 20:【I am very optimistic about you】

"Thank you, Auntie, your cooking is delicious."

In Itachi's home, in the cafeteria, Teru Uchiha was trying to force a smile with that sinister face.

"If it's delicious, eat more. I've sent it to your father's study."

Uchiha Mikoto replied very gently, "You are Itachi's first friend who came to the door. I heard that you have been helping his father to look after him during the mission. I am very grateful..."

"cough……"

Before he finished speaking, the smile on Uchiha Teru's face froze, he gave a dry cough, and replied awkwardly: "Auntie, don't laugh at me."

"I am the one who takes care of Itachi on the battlefield, he is clearly the one who takes care of me."

"I was captured at the time, and Itachi carried me back to the camp."

Uchiha Mikoto, who was still full of gratitude, was slightly stunned, but she hadn't heard about it.

According to the way of normal ninjas, it should not be a ninja being taken care of by a four or five-year-old child.

But soon, Mikoto said indifferently, "Anyway, you stayed with Itachi so that he wouldn't be so lonely in that environment, so I should thank you."

But she didn't stay too long, she put down the plate in her hand and stood up, "I won't bother you, I'll go to the study."

Meiqin could still see Hui's embarrassment, and if she stayed, it might make him even more embarrassed.

"call……"

After Meiqin left the cafeteria, Hui breathed a sigh of relief, "Your mother is really a gentle woman, but it just so happens that gentle people are what I'm worst at dealing with."

On the side, Artoria nodded in agreement, "Indeed, Itachi's mother is a very good person."

Unfortunately, her approval was not echoed by Hui, because only Itachi could hear it.

But itachi didn't say a word.

Holding the knife and fork with great effort, he cut a piece of meat steak on the plate into equal portions, and put it in his mouth gracefully, chewing slowly.

"Deceiving Kangxi"

"Are you used to eating like this before? It feels a little hypocritical."

Hui looked at his movements and eating methods strangely, and kindly reminded, "Eating slowly is a taboo in the process of performing tasks, so don't develop such a habit."

As he spoke, he directly picked up the whole steak with a fork and put it to his mouth to eat it.

"Still trying to learn, I will make a choice according to the situation."

Itachi replied calmly, continuing to eat in the way Artoria taught.

In the recent half a month of teaching, the morning is usually a physical exercise class, and the afternoon is a culture class.

The content of the cultural class contains a lot of things. Itachi can learn a lot about the profession of being a ninja in this process, which he has basically never read from books.

For example, Artoria often evaluates Konoha's area arrangement, architectural design, upper, middle and lower ninja job system, commission system... these aspects.

In this process, compare Konoha with Great Britain, and objectively evaluate the differences in policies from various angles.

Another example is table manners, clothing etiquette, music, wine... all aspects.

These, as Hui said, are indeed not suitable for ninja's living habits.

But what if you don't consider it from the position of ninja?

Itachi doesn't like the idea of ​​limiting himself.

Anyway, my learning speed is very fast, so I can try everything.

"How? My father."

Teru Uchiha talked as always, and within a few seconds of stopping, he brought up another topic, "Since I returned to the village from the front line, I haven't stepped out of my house until now, and I am tortured by this devil every day."

"All kinds of gymnastics training, all kinds of ninjutsu training, even before going to bed at night, you have to undergo illusion resistance training, and you can only rest if you successfully escape from the illusion!"

"Let me tell you, my recent sleep time is basically no more than four hours a day!"

His face was full of grief and indignation.

But listening to the terrifying amount of training, Itachi's hand holding the knife and fork did not pause for a moment, and cut the steak naturally, "It sounds really strict."

Uchiha Hui emphasized, "It's not just very strict, it's very strict!"

But soon, he replied proudly: "But fortunately, I have completed his training perfectly, and I should be able to go out again from tomorrow."

"But in this period, there seems to be no difference between being able to go out and not being able to go out."

"Basic entrusted tasks have basically stopped, and the war situation has also temporarily froze. It seems that I have nowhere to go as a ninja."

As he said that, he looked at Itachi in distress, "How about I train with you from tomorrow?"

When he said this, Itachi could clearly sense that his eyes were very malicious.

He wants to hit me.

For some reason, Itachi found that he could read his heart.

Is it because this person is too easy to guess?

"Promise him, although you can perfectly reproduce my movements in basic swordsmanship. But how to apply it in actual combat is another requirement."

Before Itachi refused, Artoria reminded her from the side.

Actual combat?

After thinking about it for a while, Itachi felt that it made sense, looked at Teru Uchiha opposite him, and nodded in agreement with the proposal.

"Great! I've been beaten for nothing for days, and it's finally my turn..."

Seeing Itachi nodded, Hui, who was expecting it, blurted out.

But soon he coughed dryly again, "I mean...it's really great to be able to get the task of cultivating new blood in the family."

Hui's tone became more serious, "Itachi, I've always been very optimistic about you. For those who can set foot on the battlefield at the age of four, your future is limitless."

"It would be a great honor for me to have a chance to be a weak street light in your life during the time you were growing up."

"Itachi, I love you..."

"Hui!"

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

A hoarse and angry voice interrupted his eloquent words, "It's time to go back."

Accompanied by this voice, Itachi could see that the face of the lively young man on the opposite side became obedient, and his body stood up stiffly.

And when Itachi turned his head and looked towards the door, he happened to meet Uchiha Aomon's cold eyes.

It must have been a conversation, right?About the election of his father as the fourth Hokage.

The reason quickly emerged in Itachi's mind, but he stood up calmly.

He stepped towards the door with Teru Uchiha, stood beside his parents, and nodded politely towards Uchiha Aomon.

And his reaction made Uchiha Qingmen's face fluctuate a little.

"Then I'll take my leave."

Uchiha Aomon bid farewell coldly.

Then, he took the stiff Uchiha Teru and left the house without looking back.

"What a bunch of restless guys..."

Vaguely, Itachi could still hear his father grunting when he turned back to the study.

Chapter 21: 【Classic Fire Escape】

"Aren't you restless?"

Looking back at the back of his father leaving, Itachi had some thoughts in his heart.

Although the tribe has repeatedly persuaded him to support him as the leader, it sounds like his father really does not have the idea of ​​competing for the fourth generation goal.

He has feelings for Konoha, and is relatively safe in decision-making.

Itachi simply made a first-level judgment.

Now, after being nurtured by Arturia's culture class, he is no longer the kid who only knew how to think about life before.

He now understands many social structures, interest structures...

The understanding of the village is not just that people gather together to form a village, and everyone helps each other... such a simple idea.

Since she is in the ninja world, of course Artoria cannot teach Itachi about the history of Great Britain.

Therefore, she has studied and evaluated the history of Konoha, the history of the country of fire, and the history of the ninja world.

During this process, Itachi also slowly learned through practical examples that war cannot be avoided.And this is the same reason that a country cannot be stable forever.

While the country exists, it will constantly face external enemies and internal disturbances.

And why does war exist?Because of interests, because of survival, because of desire... many, many factors.

When human beings have human nature and have emotions such as the seven emotions and six desires, it is impossible for the fire of war to die out. It will always be provoked for various reasons, and no one will be satisfied with the status quo.

And this knowledge also let Itachi understand that if his father, under the instigation of his clansmen, really wants to compete for the seat of the fourth generation.What kind of impact will it have on this village and this country.

Although I don't know the specific relationship between the family and the village.But judging from the language of their dialogue, it should be biased towards bad.

In this case, if the father wants to take that seat, there should be many voices of opposition in the village.

These quarrels and disputes will prompt Konoha, who is still in the flames of war, to step further into a deeper abyss.

So the father's retreat is to hope that the family will be stable, but at the same time, he should also hope that the village can be stable.

This should be called... thinking in terms of the big picture.

Itachi calmly acts as an observer, and deliberates rationally...

"Swordsmanship? And it still seems to be biased towards heavy swords..."

In the forest near the Uchiha tribe, the area where Itachi often used as a training place ushered in a "guest" - Uchiha Teru.

A new day is ushered in, and Teru Uchiha came as scheduled, intending to "guidance" his own practice.

However, he seemed quite surprised when he saw himself swinging a large sword that was almost indistinguishable from his body.

"I always feel that you are going astray, Itachi."

Uchiha Teru looked at himself strangely, "Let's not talk about eating slowly, even the weapons used are so unique."

"Our Uchiha combines Sharingan, and we are more good at ninjutsu and genjutsu. But in order not to let ourselves be biased, although we will also learn physical skills, swordsmanship, throwing... Ability to assist the left. "

"But our clan generally learns lighter fighting methods. Even medium-sized ninja utensils like the Fuma Shuriken are rarely used by the clan."

"It's good for you... You chose such a clumsy iron sword, it doesn't look very good with our family's Sharingan."

Although it was said that he proposed to train together with the idea of ​​beating someone, Hui, as a senior of the same clan, couldn't help but want to correct him when he saw that a talented junior like Itachi had gone astray.

"I'm just looking for a fighting style that suits me better."

Itachi explained casually, and looked at him, "So...shall we start now?"

As soon as the voice fell, the figure standing in the distance in front of him, lazily digging earwax with his little finger, suddenly disappeared from his field of vision.

Danger……

Itachi felt extremely calm when the opponent he fought suddenly disappeared from his eyes.

After all, the real enemy will not wait for you to start before starting to assassinate you.

His eyes calmly swept around, he controlled his breathing and heartbeat rhythm, and at the same time his muscles tensed, ready to deal with an attack at any time.

rustling-

"left?"
