Chapter 248: Uchiha Itachi, Recovery Complete!
"The end?"
Faced with Tsunade's decision, even though he had been mentally prepared before, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
The situation was worse than he had imagined.
Akatsuki is an extremely dangerous organization whose members include S-class rebels from various ninja villages, murderous wandering ninjas, and deranged madmen.
However, they have one thing in common, and that is strength.
The strength of each member of Xiao is very strong, and there is also the leader of the mysterious Xiao Xiao...... Even if he has a kaleidoscope writing wheel, he doesn't dare to say that he is even more invincible.
And their purpose, Zero, is to achieve peace, but the premise is to start a war that engulfs the entire ninja world and makes everyone feel the pain.
It is such an extremely dangerous organization, and the intelligence value that he can get from it, as an undercover agent who has successfully broken into the interior, is completely immeasurable.
And yet now it's said that his undercover work is over, seriously?
Orochimaru, who has obviously returned now, was also a member of Xiao, and the three generations who have been paying attention to this matter, haven't they explained it to Tsunade?
Three generations......
Uchiha Itachi set his eyes on Miyo and found that he was also a little surprised, a result that he should not have expected.
However, it was only a surprise, and the three generations did not seem to have any intention of stopping this matter.
Why?
Soon, though, Tsunade spoke again:
"We've learned the true nature of Akatsuki, so it's a waste to keep you there......"
“?”
Have you thoroughly learned the true face of Akatsuki?
Why do I still know nothing about this undercover agent?
Itachi Uchiha suddenly wondered if he was up to the task of being an undercover agent.
"So, what's my next mission?"
Quickly adjusting his mentality, Uchiha Itachi didn't ask what the so-called true face was.
Although he has been investigating, it doesn't mean that he can ask for information about Xiao at will, which is beyond his rights.
He just needs to know what his mission is.
"Since you say so, then I won't talk more nonsense."
Hearing this, Tsunade said straight to the point, "Your next task is to stay by my side as the Hokage's guard." ”
“…… Why? ”
Uchiha Itachi was silent for a long time, then asked.
Because he had no idea why Tsunade would make such a decision.
The position of Hokage Guardian is very special, as a position for the purpose of protecting the Shadow, in addition to all kinds of basic conditions, there is also the most critical one.
The Hokage's guards are all the Hokage's most trusted people, and the relationship between the two is also very close.
For example, Sarutobi Hichi, Danzo and others, as the disciples of the second Hokage, are also his Hokage's guards, and the second Hokage even chose to entrust the Hokage's position directly to them in the end.
Another example is the guards of the four generations of Hokage Bo Feng Shui Gate, who don't know the fire genma, the same as the foot, and the three of Dieivahi, who were taught by the Bo Feng Shui Gate and learned the art of flying thunder gods.
So, being the Hokage's guard almost shows his intimacy with the Hokage, but here's the problem
He's an Uchiha.
Now there are only two Uchiha left in the world, him and Sasuke Uchiha, but everyone knows why it has become like this.
Would the fifth Hokage actually rest assured that an Uchiha would serve as the Hokage's bodyguard?
This is where he couldn't figure it out.
"Don't worry, after all, there is basically nothing to do in this position, and I am reluctant to abandon such a capable person in this position, just temporarily."
Tsunade said with a smile, as if he didn't hear what Uchiha Itachi meant.
"The main reason for this arrangement is to make it easier for you to receive treatment."
"After all, if you drag such a broken body on a mission, doesn't it seem that I, the Hokage, are too incompetent?"
Tsunade's words directly interrupted Uchiha Itachi's train of thought, and at the same time, his face was paralyzed, revealing a slight wry smile:
"Do you see that?"
"Well, after all, I'm also a doctor, so I can still see such an obvious problem."
Tsunade said modestly, obviously she was already the best doctor in the ninja world.
"But it's a miracle that with such a body in tow, it didn't die violently, and it was still alive."
Tsunade said unceremoniously.
"You're laughing ......"
"You don't think your problem is only your eyes, do you? You should still be a little conscious of what your body is doing now. ”
Itachi Uchiha seemed to want to say something, but was directly interrupted by Tsunade.
"Even if you are a healthy person, you will have all kinds of physical and psychological problems when you are in a high-pressure state for a long time, and groups like spies themselves are prone to this kind of problems."
"Not only are you in such a state for a long time, but you also have to go through all kinds of high-intensity battles, and the double burden of psychology and physical responsibility is difficult for the vast majority of people to bear."
Tsunade began to explain it, and said in a warning tone:
"In such a situation, becoming gloomy, wanting to commit suicide, going crazy, dying suddenly...... It's normal for these things to happen. "And you, I'm afraid, are already teetering on the edge of the cliff."
“……”
The Uchiha Itachi was completely silent, because it was.
Originally, he just attributed everything to the side effects of overusing Kaleidoscope Sharingan, but now it has been ruthlessly debunked by Tsunade.
If this continues, he will collapse.
The ending is just like Tsunade said, suicide, madness, sudden death...... It's all possible.
"So, there should be nothing wrong with this arrangement, right?"
"When your question is almost done, I'll assign you other tasks."
After Tsunade finished speaking, he stood still and looked at Itachi Uchiha, waiting for his choice.
In fact, there is only one option.
"Accept the mission, complete the mission, this is the mission of the ninja."
Uchiha Itachi said this, acquiescing in such an arrangement.
But he still had a lot of concerns in his mind.
For example, the question of his renegade identity, such as the reaction of other high-ranking people in Konoha, such as the reaction of the Konoha masses......
Another example...... Sasuke Uchiha.
"Well, perfectly solved!"
Tsunade didn't know what Uchiha Itachi was thinking, but he just stretched his waist and was very satisfied with the handling of the problem this time.
"Let's go back to Konoha then...... That's right! ”
Tsunade suddenly remembered something, and a dark mask appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Uchiha Itachi's eyes froze, space-time ninjutsu?!
"Well, take it and block your face, it's not convenient for you to show up at the moment."
Taking the shadow mask handed over by Tsunade, Uchiha Itachi felt a long-lost sense of familiarity, he had been a shadow in the past.
Put on the mask, the breath will be restricted, and no one will know who he is at all.
"Mainly, there were too many things to do some time ago, and I'm a little busy now."
"When my side settles down, I'll whip the corpse again, and then you can do without a mask."
Tsunade assured that he would not give face to the three generations on the side at all.
