Chapter 70: Umbrella
After agreeing to persuade Tsunade for three generations, Sasuke didn't act immediately. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He still has a few things to deal with.
The affairs of Konoha Hospital cannot be let go. The wounded of the Great War have not fully recovered, and in order to maintain the trust of the daimyo in Konoha, even ninjas like Iruka have to be sent out on missions. For a while, the casualty ratio in the mission increased a lot, and Sasuke, as a particularly powerful medical ninja, couldn't pull away at all.
In addition, Sasuke also needs to rebuild a weapon that can be used again. The black knife was cut in two by the white fangs, although it was a pity, there was nothing to be done. For the time being, only Jiraiya's short knife can be used freely. As for Thunder Blade, Sasuke had no expectations.
Sasuke's sword technique is completely biased towards a sword flow swordsmanship because he absorbed the experience of Sasaki Kojiro. The second sword flow that was used before was just a short knife at the right time, and now if you want to master the first-class two days that you have never been involved before, you will only waste time and reduce your strength.
So Sasuke handed over the Thunder Knife to the craftsman who had come from the Land of Iron to support the construction, and saw if he could put it together to create a 1.5-meter-long knife like "Monogan Blanching". Anyway, it's just a ninja knife, and it can't reach the level of an artifact, so the guy named Kazuo agreed to give it a try.
There is also Hinata's caged bird, Kari's household registration and residence, and Sakura's medical ninjutsu teaching. If you really want to do it, whether it's trivial or important, it will come up in a steady stream.
Life is like this, it is a pile of unknowns, and not everyone can pay attention to the special in the ordinary. That's why people chase the other side all the way, and they only have thoughts that they can't bear to give up.
Life is like this, if you can't find a lighthouse, it's easy to be swallowed up by the waves of ordinary daily life. Therefore, everything that can move people is great.
Every day without an answer, time passes.
After more than a week, Sasuke finally put an end to his busy life. On this day, the seventh class made an appointment to meet at the Maruko shop that he frequented, in order to celebrate Sasuke's successful promotion to the middle ninja.
In the original book, Sasuke didn't like sweets, but now Sasuke still likes it. After all, he still has the heart of an otaku.
"Ahhhh ”
The results of the middle ninja exam were quickly approved under the decision of the three generations, and Shikamaru and Sasuke became middle ninja without objection. Naruto looked at the shinobi vest that Sakuto was carrying, happy and jealous at the same time. It doesn't matter if others don't take it, he just doesn't want to lose to Sasuke.
"This is a matter of unanimous decision passed by the high-level, and it is useless for you to be dissatisfied. Kakashi comforted as he touched Naruto's head.
"And even if Naruto, your strength has reached the standard of the middle ninja, your IQ is not enough to serve as the middle ninja as the team leader. ”
"Kakashi-sensei!"
Sasuke looked at Naruto, who was arguing with Kakashi, and laughed helplessly. This is Naruto, who is competitive and does not admit defeat, but he will not get into the horns.
"Sakura-chan, you look weird, did anything happen?"
Usually, no matter who Naruto quarrels with or commits a second offense, Sakura will educate Naruto in the role of a butler, or laugh next to him like herself. Today, Sakura just sat lonely and didn't speak, which made Sasuke very strange.
"It's nothing, it's just a little tiring to help in the hospital these days. ”
Sakura immediately put on a smile when she heard Sasuke's inquiry. But in Sasuke's opinion, this smile is very reluctant, and it is obvious that there is something, but Sakura doesn't want to worry about herself.
"What the hell is going on?"
Sasuke couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic for the time when Class 7 was first formed. Although the mission is boring, Naruto is noisy, and his pressure is relatively high, the minds of these two imps are still easy to guess. Now that they have grown up one by one, they have become troublesome.
Just as Kakashi teased and Sasuke sighed, two men wearing trench coats embroidered with several red clouds and hats with wind chimes on their heads walked past the door of the Maruko shop. One tall and one short, the tall one carrying something wrapped in a bandage behind his back.
"The one who knows...... It shouldn't be. ”
The image of the fire and water duo immediately appeared in Sasuke's mind. But it's not right to think about it, Itachi rushed to Konoha in the first place to warn Konoha's higher-ups. Now that three generations are still alive, Itachi doesn't need to come back.
Anyway, let's catch up and take a look first.
Sasuke and Kakashi exchanged a look, threw the green vest in his hand to Naruto, and walked out of the Maruko shop.
"Naruto, don't you want this vest? I'll give it to you. ”
"Sasuke ......"
Naruto was about to say something, and Kakashi stood up as well.
"Sorry, that's all for today. Suddenly it occurred to me that there was something to report to Hokage-sama, so I went first. ”
"In that case, I'll go back first. Sakura, who was obviously worried, also walked out of the store.
"Hey, Hey, ......"
After a puff of smoke rose, Naruto found that he was the only one left in the store, and he couldn't help but look out of the store in confusion and pain.
"You haven't paid yet......"
Next to the small bridge and flowing water, Sasuke and Kakashi were leaning against the railing, and opposite stood two people in red cloud robes on a black background.
"Let's stop here. ”
Kakashi flicked his wrist and a kunai stuck in front of the feet of the Akatsuki organization. The shorter man took off his hat and hung his left arm on the trench coat. A pair of writing wheel eyes, two lines of tear troughs, is none other than Uchiha Itachi.
"Kakashi, it's been a long time. ”
"I didn't expect it to be you, Itachi Uchiha. ”
Kakashi's eyes changed, and his previous lazy look was swept away, and he straightened the forehead guard covering his left eye and put it into a state of alert.
"Looks like you're an old acquaintance, Itachi. I'm going to introduce myself. ”
As soon as the ghost shark wanted to take off the hat, a knife qi slashed at him. There was no time to dodge, and the knife qi grazed the scalp and split the hat in half.
"Don't be in such a hurry, little devil who looks like a weasel. ”
"Dried persimmon ghost shark, it's none of your business here, don't be an eyesore here. Kakashi, too, and facing him your writing wheel will only be a burden. ”
The oni shark looked at Sasuke's one-meter-and-a-half-long knife pointed straight at the tip of his nose, and the corners of his mouth showed shark-like teeth. The quick unraveling of the shark muscle also pointed to Sasuke's face.
"Hmph, what an unpleasant little ghost. Is that your brother?"
"Stop, Oni, don't forget our mission. ”
As he spoke, Itachi looked at Sasuke again, his eyes cold and cold without a trace of emotion.
"Sasuke, you've grown taller. ”
Sasuke looked at Itachi Uchiha with his face in one hand and slowly unsheathed the long knife in his hand.
"What is your purpose? ”
The Uchiha slowly took out a kunai from the cuff with his right hand, and Sasuke immediately folded his hands when he saw this. The next moment, four columns of water suddenly erupted from the river on both sides of the bridge and pounced on Sasuke and Kakashi, but they gradually condensed into ice from the top of the water column and floated on the surface of the river.
"The speed of the seal is so fast that I can't even see clearly with these eyes, it seems that it is not easy to do. ”
Sasuke's two writing wheels slowly turned, not daring to miss a little of Itachi's movements. From the exchange just a moment, Sasuke found that there were some deviations between Itachi and the original book. Maybe it's because he knows how he behaved in Konoha's collapse plan, or maybe it's because he saw the power he showed when he shot at the oni shark.
In short, Itachi may not release water on itself like in the original book.
"It's still stupid, but it's grown somewhat. ”
Itachi took a deep breath, then closed his eyes.
"My brother, let me show you how big the gap is between you and me. ”
