Chapter 39: Epilogue
"Forget it!" Kurayoshi looked at the crow in Itachi's hand, was silent for a while, and said, "As soon as you became a traitor and left, I raised a crow, isn't this telling others that I have a connection with you?" ”
“?”
Itachi's eyes widened slightly, puzzled, "Why do you raise a crow to tell others that I have a connection with you?" ”
"Do you still want to ask?" Kurayoshi rolled his eyes, "Konoha is so big, you're the one who raises crows!" ”
“……”
Itachi fell silent.
After a while, he looked up at Kurayoshi.
"I think you have persecution paranoia."
"Huh?"
Itachi sighed slightly, "Konoha is so big, how can I be the only one who raises crows, and besides, I am in the dark, and my identity and whereabouts are all kept secret, and the only ones who know that I raise crows are a few relatives in the family."
All of this aside, the difference in identity between you and me, no matter what, no one will associate me with a crow! ”
"Forehead ......"
Kurayoshi was a little embarrassed.
He made the mistake of using God's perspective to speculate on the code of conduct of others.
It's like a lot of Naruto fandoms I watched in my previous life.
Because they know what kind of virtue Tuan Zang is, the protagonists with golden fingers think that Tuan Zang is watching him 24 hours a day, fighting wits and courage with the air all day long, to prevent Tuan Zang from coming to him.
But in fact, there are hundreds of thousands of inhabitants of Konoha and tens of thousands of ninjas......
It's understandable if you're prominent or famous.
But some guys have just come through, one has no identity, and the other has no reputation......
Tuan Zang is really full and has nothing to do, 24 hours to monitor you, a guy who has nothing.
"Ahem......"
Kurayoshi coughed lightly, his expression was solemn, "In this case, then this crow will be raised by me for the time being, so what do you need to pay attention to when raising crows?" ”
"You don't need anything, just let him out every day, and he will find food on his own."
"That's a good feeling, I'm still worried that it will take up my cultivation time!"
Itachi nodded faintly, "I've said what I want to say, I'll leave first." ”
After saying that, he made a seal on his chest with one hand, and the whole person turned into a black feather and disappeared into the room.
……
This night was a sleepless night.
Danzang is dead, and the roots are destroyed.
Only the ninjas who went out on a mission escaped.
Many ninjas who are on vacation have been notified of an emergency gathering.
They were shocked to learn the news.
It's not just Danzo and Root who were destroyed in Konoha, but also because the person who destroyed it all was Konoha's companion.
- Itachi Uchiha.
A large number of ninjas were dispatched, and they shuttled through the streets and alleys, searching every corner of Konoha, and many squads were sent out to search the territory of the Fire Country.
Catch the killer at all costs.
Of course, it all happened in the dark.
Most of the inhabitants of Konoha don't know.
Because it is buried in the shadows, many old people who have lived in Konoha all their lives do not know about the existence of this department, let alone young people.
And Kurayoshi took a bath and slept early.
Everything outside has nothing to do with him.
……
Early the next morning, Kurayoshi woke up early.
He pushed open the window, and it was raining lightly outside, and the rain was dripping down the eaves and plum branches, making a "da-da" sound.
"Light rain!" Kurayoshi sighed.
He hates rainy days, especially light rain.
Because of the rainy day, it is difficult to go out, and the light rain is more like someone crying sadly, which makes him feel upset.
Forget it, let's practice swords in the dojo!
Kurayoshi changed into a practice uniform, washed and cooked, and then started a new day of training.
……
Uchiha Mansion.
Sasuke sat in the backyard corridor, leaning back against the pillar and looking up at the sky.
The rain dripping from the dark clouds formed puddles of water in the yard.
Sasuke bit his lower lip tightly, his little hand clenched tightly.
Last night, the ninjas from the village came.
Tell them that Itachi killed the village high-ranking Danzo and killed everyone in the roots.
Itachi is already wanted and has fled Konoha as a traitor.
Sasuke couldn't believe that that gentle brother could become a traitor who killed his companion and betrayed the village.
What made him even more incredulous was that his father and the people in the family accepted this fact calmly and did not doubt it at all.
Only the mother cried secretly when she was alone.
"Damn, how could this happen!" Sasuke angrily hammered against the plank, making a heavy sound.
Obviously, they went to the streets together during the day, and they also said that they would guide him in his cultivation.
As a result, it ...... at night
The fists clenched tightly, making a crackling sound.
Sasuke's forehead was bruised, and the expression on his face gradually distorted, "Itachi, you bastard, how can you do such a thing!" ”
"Are you unwilling?"
An indifferent and majestic voice sounded from the side.
Sasuke woke up and looked up at his side.
I saw a tall, majestic figure standing there.
"Father!" Sasuke looked at the visitor in surprise.
Uchiha Fugaku clasped his hands around and his face was full of seriousness, "Itachi has done something that has disgraced the family, you must not follow him." ”
"Father's ......"
Sasuke bit his lower lip and asked unwillingly, "Brother, brother, did he really do such a thing?" ”
"I've been to the scene to investigate, and many root ninjas have traces of being hypnotized by the Sharingan, and at present, only Itachi can do this, and ......" Uchiha Fugaku came to the edge of the corridor, looked up at the sky and sighed: "The three generations of Hokage personally confirmed." ”
Sasuke's fists clenched his fingers white, his face full of anger, "Itachi, I won't let you go, the scum of the family. ”
"Make a note of the shame that the ferret has brought us, and then try to become stronger, and then wash away the shame."
"I'm going to get stronger."
"When the rain stops, come to the cultivation ground of the other courtyard, and I will teach you the ninjutsu of your family."
"Got it."
Looking at Sasuke, who was immersed in resentment, Fugaku nodded and turned to leave.
It's just that the eyes that had been maintaining majesty in front of Sasuke before dimmed.
Although he didn't know that everyone in the family had fallen for the other gods, from the change in the attitude of the Konoha high-level towards the Uchiha, Fugaku still noticed a lot.
Behind the destruction of the group and the roots, it is not as simple as a simple betrayal.
Perhaps, it was the family that dragged down the weasel.
……
Time flies, and the white horse flies.
As the weather warms up, the snow on the roadside is replaced by the scent of spring grass and flowers.
March 1, Konoha 54.
The cherry blossoms are in full bloom and the fragrance of the flowers is overflowing.
Konoha is surrounded by a sea of pink flowers.
Countless children as young as five or six years old go to the ninja school alone or under the guidance of adults.
March is the beginning of the school year.
Today is the day when the ninja school starts to register for the exam.
Countless people gathered around the registration gate, and then went to participate in the entrance examination en masse.
Kurayoshi has an admission letter from three generations, so he doesn't need to take the assessment, and naturally he doesn't have to squeeze with these people to sign up.
He stood under the big tree in the distance, and waited for the people who signed up to be almost gone, so he came to the window without hurrying and handed the admission letter given by the three generations to the teacher inside.
