Chapter 11 He Who Can See Only Himself
"One, two, three, let's go!"
When the Uchiha Shisui shouted "two", he had already rushed out like an arrow from the string.
By the time he counted to "three", he had already thrown the Uchiha Itachi a few meters away.
"Brother Zhishui, you are cheating...
The sound of a ferret in the forest was resounding.
The two teenagers sprinted through the forest at a high speed and soon disappeared into the depths of the Konoha Forest.
。。。。。。。。
Sunset looked curiously at the two teenagers at the top of the cliff, and fell from behind the mountain unwillingly.
The fiery red sky is turning dark gray, and night is about to fall.
"Such as... If it weren't for you, I would have won today. ”
Itachi's shoulders heaved violently, gasping for air.
They had been running at full speed in the Konoha Forest for two hours, and it was difficult for even ordinary shinobi to hold on to such a long time at extreme speed.
The Uchiha smiled and took out a towel to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
After all, he was a few years older than Itachi, and he became a shinobi early, and his expression was much more relaxed than Itachi.
"Wipe your sweat. It's actually a ninja skill, if you've noticed my movements. I knew I was going to start when I got to "two". ”
He handed the towel in his hand to Itachi.
Itachi looked at the towel in his hand with disgust on his face and didn't reach for it.
Uchiha Shisui was a little embarrassed, so he had to retract his outstretched hand,
"How's school going? Have you made any new friends? ”
"No, not one. Compared to going to school, it is much more meaningful to practice with Brother Zhishui. ”
Itachi Uchiha shook his head.
"Speaking of which, it's really not easy to make friends with your personality. But when I was in ninja school, I had a lot of friends. ”
The Uchiha Shisui raised his head high, as if reminiscing about the happy and joyful days when he was in the ninja school.
"By the way, with your strength, there should be no one among your peers who can beat you, right?"
Uchiha asked with a smile.
Itachi Uchiha didn't answer.
"Is there anyone better than you?"
The Uchiha Shisui was surprised and shouted in an exaggerated tone.
Uchiha Itachi shook his head,
"I've never paid attention to the people around me, maybe maybe there are great people. But judging from their movements, none of them make me feel amazing. Not even anyone who deserves to give me a second look. ”
"It's really a weasel. Do you only see yourself? ”
"The only thing I care about is how to improve my strength, how about my classmates, whether they are powerful or not, it doesn't seem to be my business, right?"
Itachi Uchiha looked at Uchiha Shisui with strange eyes.
"That's right. With your strength, let alone your peers, even in the entire ninja school, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a person more powerful than you. ”
The Uchiha patted him the shoulder.
"Come on, Itachi. With you, the future of the Uchiha clan should be promising. ”
When he said this, Uchiha Shisui's smiling face had a bleak taste.
。。。。。。。。
Perhaps the Uchiha Shisui himself didn't realize the desolation in his words.
But Uchiha Itachi keenly caught that fleeting strangeness.
After dinner, Uchiha Itachi lay down in bed early.
Although the afternoon of cultivation had squeezed out almost every bit of his physical strength, the heavy pressure in his heart still succeeded in dispelling the drowsiness.
His eyes were fixed on the ceiling above him, thinking about his thoughts alone.
Outside the room was the dining room, and at this time, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto were sitting at the dining table chatting.
The sound reached his ears clearly through the cracks in the wooden door.
"Itachi's results are pretty good."
It was the mother's voice, and it sounded very happy.
"Yes, it's my son."
The father's voice also seemed rare and pleasant,
But the boy still seemed to be very lonely, and I heard that he didn't have any friends at school. Although it is good to focus on your studies, it is good to work hard to become a ninja. But a rope that is too tight can easily break. I'm really worried. ”
Mother's melodious laughter rang out,
"Itachi doesn't have no friends. He has been practicing a lot with Zhishui lately. I heard that two people are like brothers. ”
"Instantaneous water stopping?"
。。。。。。。。
Inside the restaurant.
Uchiha Fugaku frowned slightly, hesitated for a few seconds, as if he didn't want Itachi next door to hear, and deliberately lowered his voice,
"If you can, you'd better warn Itachi not to let him get too close to the kid called Shisui."
"Why is that? Itachi finally managed to have a good friend, and if he did so, it would make him very sad. ”
Uchiha Mikoto looked at her husband with disgruntled eyes.
The voices in the restaurant grew quieter.
。。。。。。。。
In the room, Uchiha Itachi's brows also began to lock.
"My father doesn't seem to be too satisfied with my friendship with Shisui, why is that?"
With doubts in his heart, he slowly closed his eyes.
。。。。。。。。。
Itachi Uchiha has been in the ninja school for half a year.
The "genius" Uchiha Itachi, who was originally only famous in a small area within the Uchiha clan, is now known and known to everyone in the ninja school.
He is the most outstanding student since the founding of the Konoha Ninja School, a unique genius.
He was praised by all the teachers and classmates, and his excellence was simply terrifying to everyone.
After four months, the teacher did not let him take any more first-grade courses, none of them.
Instead, he was given a tailor-made course and the most rigorous exams in history.
Even so, Uchiha Itachi completed all of his classes and exams with incredible ease, as easily as completing the simplest kunai throwing class. Even after the completion of the face, the face is faint, and I can't see the slightest smugness.
In the end, all the teachers gave up.
He began to re-examine whether it was necessary for him to continue his studies at the ninja school.
His strength was already far beyond the level of ordinary shinobi, even though he was only six years old now.
Five months later, all the teachers at the ninja school unanimously decided that the Uchiha would not need to study at the ninja school for six years, but only one year before graduating.
Because of the previous Nine-Tails attack, a large number of ninjas died in Konoha Ninja Village, and the number of ninjas was in a state of overstretch.
In order to ensure that the assignment is completed on time, the teachers of the ninja school have the right to allow some particularly outstanding students to take the graduation exams with the senior students without having to complete the six-year period of study.
As long as you successfully pass the exam, you can officially become a shinobi and start performing tasks.
For Uchiha Itachi, this is the most joyful thing in the past six months.
He finally took a big step towards his goal.
