This Uchiha Itachi is very lonely

"I just said that I don't want to be the patriarch."

Itachi repeated the conversation he had with his father just now, "I prefer to stand by my family's side rather than stand by the overall situation."

"I even started to feel a little resentment at being a big-picture person because that would force me to be ruthless."

"But in this way, I am no longer a qualified king. I...have failed your expectations and run counter to you, haven't I?"

Artoria shook her head, "Not really."

"On the contrary, you who cherish your family so much make me feel even more happy."

Her voice was very gentle, without the slightest hint of dissatisfaction.

However, the way Arturia looked at her made Itachi feel very uncomfortable.

Because it was a look of pity, regret and pain.

"Actually, I have known for a long time that for the concepts of the majority and the minority, the overall situation and the small family, what I just tell you in words cannot make you understand at all."

"But I believe that one day, you will find that there are many things and things in this world. Even if you don't want to, you have to do it."

"And you will understand my past better in the process, and gradually become me and surpass me."

Her meaning was very clear, even if she didn't want to be the patriarch for the time being, she didn't even have the concept of being the patriarch.

But one day, I will gradually have the concept of the big picture, and become the kind of person I hate now.

Does it really happen?

Itachi couldn't guarantee it, so he didn't open his mouth.

……

Early the next morning, after Itachi woke up and washed, he opened the door and wanted to walk towards the dining hall.

As soon as he went out, he saw his mother standing in the aisle, looking very preoccupied.

"Weasel..."

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Mikoto's expression became cautious.

She seemed to have been waiting here in the aisle for a long time.

Itachi was taken aback for a moment, recalling what his father said yesterday.

Then, he hurried over, "Mother..."

He called out respectfully.

"Itachi, what your father said yesterday was a bit serious, so don't take it to heart."

Before Itachi could speak more, Miqin hastily explained opposite him, "Mother doesn't need your care, mother just... just doesn't want you to delay your own practice."

"A ninja's time is precious, especially in this age of constant warfare."

"The more capable you are of protecting yourself, the more assured your mother will be..."

Her complexion is not good.

Last night, when her husband came back to the room angrily and explained the conversation between Itachi and him, she was immediately stunned and kicked him out of the house.

Her husband is not the kind of person who can talk, she knows it very well.

Therefore, Miqin had a lot of thoughts in her mind, whether the son who excitedly wanted to be with her would misunderstand her, thinking that she didn't like him, didn't need him, and so on.

She didn't sleep well all night.

And Itachi stood opposite her, listening to her explanations one after another, his mind was a little confused.

After a long time, under the reminder of Artoria next to him, he asked, "Then... is mother happy that I am with you?"

"Of course I'm happy."

Hearing Itachi's inquiry, Mikoto breathed a sigh of relief, and replied without hesitation, "You have been as old-fashioned as your father since birth, and now you have finally changed a bit. I am sure happy."

Ancient...board?

For this evaluation, Itachi wanted to prove himself with a gentle smile.

But he thought for a long time how to achieve this expression.

Meiqin saw his embarrassment, covered her mouth and laughed, "If you can't laugh, don't force it."

"It's the same with your father. He never smiled at me."

"But I can tell when he's happy."

Itachi gave up laughing and continued to ask: "Then mother wants me to continue practicing, right?"

"Ok!"

Mikoto nodded, "Since you were born in Uchiha, you can't avoid becoming a ninja and performing missions."

"Compared to later, when you set foot on the battlefield, I'm worried at home."

"It's better for you to practice harder now, and it's best to become an elite ninja like your father."

"In this way, if you leave to perform missions alone and go to the battlefield in the future, mother can feel more at ease."

After a pause, she continued to add: "It's not that mother doesn't need your company, but the daily chores at home are my job."

"If Itachi has free time after practicing, mother would like you to take a walk with me, drink tea, and eat snacks."

"But it's all based on your completion of your practice. In this world, having power is essential."

Chapter 30: [A five-year-old ninja? 】

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Accompanied by Uchiha Fugaku's simple handprints, the name of the spell is read out with a special grammar, which fits the trajectory of the chakra circulation in the body, ranwen.la

A fiery red fireball gushed out of his mouth like a cannonball, blowing towards the surface of the lake.

The blazing flame instantly made the lake water evaporate, and a faint white mist floated up.

By a lake at the edge of Konoha, Uchiha Fugaku looked at Itachi blankly, and explained: "There are three key points in the use of spells."

"First, Chakra."

"Chakra is the basis for the use of spells. It is the combination of physical energy and spiritual energy in the body. The use of any spell needs to consume more or less Chakra."

"Second, seal."

"Different Indian rituals match the movement trajectory of the chakra in the body to form a fit, so that the chakra can be drawn out of the body and manifested according to different surgical procedures."

"The last point, the name of the technique."

"Dicing the name of the spell is the last process of using the spell, and it is also the most important process."

"You need to concentrate enough to dictate the spell you use in the form of language. When the three factors of chakra, seal, and dictation are achieved, the use of the spell can be completed."

"In this process, if a person's control over Chakra is precise enough, and he is proficient enough in the use of a certain technique, he can also omit or reduce the two factors of seal and dictation in the process of using the technique, Use the technique directly."

"However, there is no seal technique, and the silent technique requires high proficiency in the technique, which is not something beginners can do. Moreover, if some factors of the technique are ignored, the destructive power and stability of the technique may also appear. Mistakes."

"Mistakes and omissions in battle are a very fatal thing. If you are not sure, it is best not to try to perform Wuyin and silent spells in battle."

……

Although it is clear that Itachi may have talents far beyond ordinary geniuses.But Fu Yue explained to Itachi how to use the technique in detail.

Moreover, he also told him the difference between using spells under complete conditions and using spells under incomplete conditions in a practical way.

"Itachi, now you try to seal, in the order of Ji-Wei-Shen-Hai-Wu-Yin."

"Attention, the Chakra flow in the body should not be too fast, and the amount of Chakra should be controlled to the lowest consumption range. The dictation is Fire Escape? Hao Fireball Jutsu, which is Uchiha's basic ninjutsu."

When the teaching explanation was over, Fuyue pointed to the lake in front of him, signaling Itachi to try.

Ji-wei-shen-hai-wu-yin?

Itachi did not refuse his father's ninjutsu teachings because his mother hoped that he could become stronger as soon as possible to reassure her.

He carefully recalled in his mind, the process of his father's sealing and using the spell just now.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

When the chakra flow track in the body, the seal and the name of the spell meet the conditions for performing the spell, an indescribable feeling emerged from Itachi's mind.

Immediately afterwards, he opened his mouth unconsciously, and Chakra poured out like a stream of water, and then turned into a fiery fireball the moment he left his mouth, rushing towards the lake in front of him.

brake--

The lake water was transpired again.

Dazzling flames bloomed right in front of him, but Itachi didn't feel any burns from his mouth or face.

"Is this... ninjutsu?"

Both Itachi and Artoria, who was watching nearby, had an idea about performing the spell.

This process is similar to the use of magic.

Since he learned mental defense in Artoria's memory, Itachi also searched for the use of magic in his memory.

Nowadays, the use of magic is almost similar to chakra casting.

Magic circuit = chakra extraction, magic power = chakra, singing = dictation, seal = magic formula, engraving, magic base...

The magic power circuit converts the life energy and spiritual energy of the human body into magic power, and uses magic power to perform strengthening magic, projection magic, transformation magic, absorption magic...

"Maybe you can try to use Chakra as magic power."

Arturia's voice sounded in her mind, "If the knowledge I have has magic power as a basis, you can perform better."

Itachi replied with a voice from the bottom of his heart: "Follow-up, we can test it."

Did it succeed once...?And the consumption of Chakra is actually so little.

Next to him, Fu Yue stared at Itachi with Sharingan.

During the test yesterday, he saw that Itachi had a high control over Chakra.But I didn't expect that both seal and dictation could be mastered so easily.

Even before awakening Sharingan, he already has such a powerful learning ability.

Combined with Itachi's physical standards yesterday and his posture when facing the enemy, as long as he is taught how to use some techniques, maybe...he can directly meet the standards of ninja, and there is no need to go to ninja school at all.

Five-year-old Shinobu?

Fu Yue was thinking in his heart.

As his eldest son, he has always had high hopes for Itachi, hoping that he can reach the strength to inherit his position as soon as possible.

But when Itachi really showed such an amazing talent, he hesitated.

If the clansmen knew that Itachi had the level of ninja at the age of five, they would undoubtedly praise him highly.

But again, he would be roasted over the fire.

Perhaps the clansmen will turn all the expectations they put on themselves to Itachi.

But judging from the conversation between Itachi and himself last night, he didn't have a complete concept of carrying the banner of Uchiha, but only wanted to protect this family.

Well, if Itachi can't deal with those clansmen who have expectations of him...

He may repel those relatively radical members of the family, and even have a dislike for people other than the family.

Thinking of this, Fu Yue put away Sharingan, and asked in a deep voice: "Itachi, do you still remember what I said to you? You have to learn to hide yourself."

Itachi hesitated for a moment, "What does father mean...do you want me to hide this talent?"

Fu Yue nodded, looked at the village in the distance, and explained: "The relationship between the clan and the village is very subtle, and there are many people in the clan who are dissatisfied with the village."

"I'm worried that after you reveal your talent, some radical people in the clan will try to approach you and try to influence you through words."

"But I hope you can understand that most of the people in the clan yearn for peace. We don't want to cause trouble, and we just want to live in Konoha safely."

"So for those radical tribesmen, I will find a way to appease them, and I will also use some other methods to ease the relationship with the village, so that Konoha can further connect with Uchiha."

"But before that, I hope you can hide yourself and protect yourself."

sound……

The father tends to be conservative in the conflict between the family and Konoha.

Itachi casually glanced at Arturia next to her, and asked aloud, "Father... how do you plan to maintain the relationship with the village?"
