Chapter 18: The heartbreak of the younger brother's control

During the day, he accompanied and guided Sasuke's cultivation while constantly exploring and perfecting the Flying Thunder God's technique and Spiral Pill with the help of the shadow clone's cultivation experience cheat, and at night he frolicked and chatted with the Nine Lamas at home and gradually gained the trust of this partner who shared life and death.

And Sasuke, who is also willing to go home after putting away his playfulness and practicing hard every day, is also more and more praised by his father Uchiha Fugaku, and after the heart of longing for his father's care is greatly satisfied, he is full of enthusiasm and devotes himself to daily practice, forming a virtuous circle of pain and happiness.

Of course, Sasuke's rapid growth in strength, with his undisguised and even extravagant display, not only made his father amazed and proud, but also attracted the attention of his older brother, Itachi Uchiha, who had returned from an absence.

This was also the direction Naruto expected...... In other words, the reason why Naruto didn't dissuade Sasuke from dissuading himself from the limelight was to catch the big fish of Uchiha Itachi.

With the help of Sasuke, who is highly regarded and has easy access to cultivation resources, if he continues to develop at the current pace, Naruto is confident that he will be able to obtain the strength of the upper ninja or even the quasi-shadow level when the twelve-year-old middle ninja exam comes...... But now that it has been decided to retain Sasuke's current cheerful and sunny personality, it is imperative to create an opportunity for himself to meet with Uchiha Itachi, who will be able to influence the fate of the ninja world in some future events.

Not mentioning the Uchiha Itachi will be the key to whether he can avoid the tragedy of the Uchiha clan extermination...... At the very least, Naruto is going to change the fate of the Uchiha Itachi no matter what.

For the safety of the village, but also so that Sasuke could live safely in the village and kill his parents and slaughter the clansmen with his own hands, he was obviously a hero who quelled the rebellion, but he was forced to bear the infamy of cold-blooded rebellion that followed him all his life.

In order for Sasuke to have an eternal kaleidoscope writing wheel eye design, Sasuke is guided by the unreserved love and trust in Sasuke's heart as if he is willing to transform it into the monstrous hatred required for the advancement of the writing wheel eye. It's even more to hide the truth that I've always cared about and pampered Sasuke.,Fight for Sasuke's life.,Finally, with a smile on his face, he ushered in the end of death in front of Sasuke's eyes.。

From defecting out of the village to the brotherly duel, everything was expected in Uchiha Itachi's plan, taking most of the risks for Sasuke on his own initiative, and choosing the most correct direction for him, it seemed that Sasuke was thinking about everything but he never thought about it......

Sasuke, who has been accompanied and cared for by him since he was a child, can he still be happy if he learns the truth after losing him?

……

"Whew! I'm full...... Mom! Are the ration pills and bento boxes I want ready? ”

After devouring the sumptuous and delicious meal his mother had prepared for him as always, Sasuke asked his mother, who was still busy in the kitchen, while slapping his round belly with a shiny face.

"It's going to be fine right away, let's take a little rest, Sasuke."

In the kitchen, Uchiha Mikoto was making a nutritionally balanced bento for her child with a bow left and right, and after hearing Sasuke's inquiry, she put the finished side dishes into a small bento box and decorate them, and at the same time responded to Sasuke with doting, wiped the fine sweat on her forehead slightly, and began to prepare the next dish non-stop.

"Three...... Breakfast for three...... You're eating more and more lately, kid. ”

Seeing the diligent appearance of the youngest son Sasuke, who can consciously get up early to practice without his own supervision and reprimand, the satisfaction and pride in Uchiha Fugaku's heart deepened day by day, and at the same time, his attitude towards Sasuke became more and more casual and gentle, no longer with a straight face all day long, while looking at Sasuke's stacked plates like a small mountain, the corners of his mouth rose and teased Sasuke in shock.

"Hehe, probably because the amount of cultivation has increased recently, and it's easy to feel hungry every day...... And my mother's cooking is so delicious, that's why I can't help but eat so much. ”

Sasuke, who gradually adapted to the 180-degree change in his father's attitude, changed his previous scared appearance, and responded to his father with a smile and a smile, and at the same time took a juicy red tomato to nibble.

"It's good to have the heart to work hard, but also remember to pay attention to your body. If you practice too much and wear your body out, you'll lose more than you gain, Sasuke. ”

After Uchiha Itachi, who had returned home a few days ago, quietly and elegantly enjoyed his breakfast, he got up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table in place of his mother, and looked at Sasuke slightly from the corner of his eye, and after pausing for a moment on the little face that was enjoying the tomatoes with relish, the corners of his mouth rose to reveal a doting smile.

"Speaking of which, last time I promised to find time to teach you the practice of shuriken, it just so happens that my brother has more free time recently, and after you finish eating, my brother will take you to the training ground to practice, how about it?"

"Well, I'll pay attention to my brother, don't worry." Perhaps it was because he noticed his brother's gaze looking at his "heroic" eating appearance, his little face was slightly reddened, and while he was a little faster at the meal, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed and he thought seriously, "Shuriken ......"

"Let's talk about it next time, brother."

“…… Ha? ”

"Because I've made an appointment with a friend today, I don't have time to do anything else...... Next time, let's go practice with my brother! ”

The look of Sasuke in front of him who responded seriously made the expression on the face of Uchiha Itachi, a complete brother, suddenly stiffened, and his eyes, which were originally narrowed into a crescent moon, were full of smiles, and the eyes under the eyelids were quickly replaced by unbelievable surprise, and a slight bead of sweat oozed from his forehead to wonder if he was having auditory hallucinations, and at the same time, a crisp heartbreak sound continued to echo in his mind.

“…… Burst...... Ha...... Puff cough cough ......"

Hearing that the younger son decisively rejected the eldest son's invitation to practice, Uchiha Fugaku almost couldn't hold back his laughter. And the unbelievable shocked look shown by the eldest son, Uchiha Itachi, made him even more reminiscent of the rejection that occurred when the younger son did not accept his proposal to learn the art of dragon fire as he wished, but insisted on trying to practice the scroll as a shadow clone.

"Now you must be wondering if you are still dreaming, right? Itachi ......"

Looking at his eldest son, who was as suspicious of his life as he was when he was rejected by Sasuke, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly felt much more satisfied with his balance, but also because he tried to hold back the smile, the expression on his face began to twitch slightly unnaturally. The eyes of the eldest son, who was unaware of the dazed face, gradually became a little sympathetic while gloating.

"But it can't be helped, that's it, reality~"
