On March 1, the ninja school opened.

Mikoto Uchiha held a son in one hand and walked towards the ninja school amid the greetings of the clansmen.

As for Uchiha Fugaku, he was so angry last night that he didn't say anything, and he blamed himself for his insensitivity to the child's changes, and after explaining to a few shinobi and elders in the clan, he simply lived in the garrison, didn't go home at all, and didn't say goodbye to Itachi who went to the land of water in the morning.

However, his father didn't go to ninja school, and Sasuke didn't feel lost.

Since the end of the year, Zhishui began to "train" volunteers, and he has been studying with his father in the garrison, and father and son spend a lot of time together.

On the contrary, his mother often takes his subordinates out on long-term tasks, and it is rare to accompany him.

Now that Uchiha Mikoto can squeeze out a day to attend the opening ceremony, he doesn't care, but it's still very useful.

"Mom, will Yiyong and I be in the same class?"

After walking out of the clan land, Zuo Zhu asked loudly.

"My father said that the class of the ninja school would mix the best ones with the best entrance exam scores and the worst ones. But if Yiyong and I both do well in the exam, will we not be in the same class? ”

In Zuo Suke's mind, Yi Yong, as his younger brother, will not be too far behind him even if his written test score is worse.

"It's possible."

When Mai Trin heard this, her gentle smile added a hint of worry to her face.

"And in previous years, if the freshmen were of the same clan, whether it was Hinata or Uchiha, they would rarely be placed in the same class. After all, one of the purposes of the establishment of the ninja school is to let children who are not familiar with each other get to know each other. ”

This is a measure taken by the village to promote the children's sense of community, so as to recognize Konoha itself, and there is nothing wrong with it.

At this point, her eyes stayed on the unwavering face of the righteous bravery, and the worry between her brows deepened.

[If there is no Zuo Zhu by his side, will Yiyong be isolated by other children......]

[If he is ostracized at school, this child will not like to talk even more. 】

"Ahh

Zuosuke was a little reluctant.

He also hoped that in the actual combat class, he would show Yiyong his hard cultivation of Fire Escape.

Only in terms of fire escape, he has full confidence to suppress the righteous bravery.

"I can't help it."

Mikoto smiled helplessly at Zuosuke's gaze.

"However, practical classes are generally conducted in two classes together. You still have a chance to meet, Zuo Zhu as an elder brother, remember to take care of and protect the volunteers. ”

Listening to his mother's words, a trace of confusion welled up on Zuosuke's face, and his mouth was about to bend into a question mark.

[What is the impression of Yiyong in the eyes of my mother......]

But Mai Trin couldn't see his expression anymore.

She turned to Yiyong and said, "Yiyong, I know you are a soft-hearted child, but the ninja school is a place to train ninjas, and if the disputes between students are not too big, the teacher will generally not care." So, you must not be too weak, you know? ”

Since they all aim to become ninjas, these children will face all kinds of crises in the future.

How to deal with isolation and bullying in school is also something that students must overcome before they graduate.

Although it seems that whether or not children can become ninjas depends on the results of the final exam.

In fact, in the past six years, the children's reactions to everything have been observed and recorded by the teacher, and whether they can become ninjas has long been decided.

Now that the military spending of various countries has been reduced, almost all villages (except Iwanin) are taking the elite route, and strict screening is a rather necessary process.

Children who are always bullying people at school are specifically recorded for hurting their peers.

And those children who are always bullied will also be brushed down because of their weak wills and lack of flexibility.

Mai Trin didn't want her children to be any of them.

"I see."

Yi Yong nodded.

He is looking forward to going to school.

At the beginning of his trip to the Land of Rain, he was at a loss for the scene of the Uchiha Yanhuo's disappearance.

Since then, Yoshiyoshi has been determined to figure out how ninjas think.

Only by understanding the ninja's way of thinking and the means of hiding their whereabouts can he complete the hunt on his own the next time something similar happens, just like he used to look for the traces of ghosts.

Secondly, it's because the ninja school is a good place to brush up on resolution.

With so many people in a classroom, if he could be friends with all the children within two meters, the process of resurrecting the other pillars would be much faster.

[After thinking about it, I need to gather information on the food they like to eat first.] 】

[Or, you can correct their wrong actions as you did with Cui, Wen, and Gan. 】

This is the only strategy that Yi Yong knows about improving his relationship with others.

Thinking of this, Yiyong's pace was actually faster, and he felt that the future was bright, which was diametrically opposed to his brother who was heading to the Land of Water.

"Looks like you're looking forward to going to school, too, Yiyong."

As a mother, Mai Trin immediately noticed the slight difference between Yiyong and the past, and asked with a little relief, "Is it because you and your new friends have made an appointment to meet at school?" ”

"Hmm." Yi Yong did not deny it.

Naruto Uzumaki was the number one contributor to the resurrection of Purgatory Kyojuro, so he was grateful to that child.

He had been gone for several days, and even the time of the last time they met had flickered by, and he didn't know if Naruto had continued to eat well according to that recipe during this time, and if the strange red energy in his body had interfered with his life anymore, so he wanted to know how the other party was now.

"New friends?"

The hedgehog fur on the top of Zuosuke's head trembled, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

"Yiyong's friends are also my friends, how do I not know what new friends he has? When was this? ”

"He's a lovely kid."

Mikoto Uchiha recalled with her fingertips on her chin.

"I think about it, it must be the child I met when Yiyong and I went out to buy fireworks that day ago. I asked you to come along, Sasuke, but you had to build a snowman with Itachi, so you missed it. ”

"The day of the year before ......"

Zuosuke fell into a memory for a while, and then his face suddenly fell into a gray state, "Wait, that'...... Isn't that the day when Yiyong promised to go to school? ”

Yiyong also brought him a few daisies that day, and changed the name of his parents, so the whole family was very happy, so Zuosuke remembered it very clearly.

He broke free of his mother's hand, and suddenly came to Yiyong in a half-circle, and asked stiffly, "Yiyong!" You wouldn't have agreed to go to a ninja school because of this inexplicable 'new friend', would you? ”

He had never seen what Yiyong couldn't wait to do. But my mother said so, so there shouldn't be any problem.

"That's right."

Because Zuo Suke's expression at the moment was really unremarkable, Yiyong told the truth directly.

He agreed to go to the ninja school at the time, partly because both Naruto and Sasuke wanted him to go to school, and partly because Naruto could brush up on Naruto's sun-breath resolution, which he had never seen before, and it was 5/100,000 an hour, which was his greatest hope for resurrecting the Pillar of Love, Ganluji Honey Glass (which requires Yan Hu Changzhong, Sun Hu Entry).

After listening to Yiyong's straightforward answer, Zuo Suke took two steps back as if he had been hit hard, and his dark eyes trembled violently, revealing a surging red light.

[I always thought that Yiyong agreed to go to school because of me! 】

[Now that my brother has been taken to a foreign country by Zhishui, is even my younger brother going to be snatched away?!] 】

Just when Mikoto was worried about whether Sasuke would cry or open his eyes on the spot, that is, his eyes would turn red no matter what, Sasuke's shoulders sank heavily.

He lowered his head and turned around and walked forward quickly, like a peerless general who had broken away from the brigade and penetrated into the enemy camp alone.

"Mom, let's hurry up!"

Sasuke's angry voice came out.

"I'm going to find that vixen and burn all his hair!"

"......" Yiyong was a little stunned, and looked up at his mother: "What's wrong with Zuo Zhu?" ”

[Who is the vixen talking about?] 】

"Alas. You kid......"

While Mai Tamin sighed, she was already planning to buy a best-selling book called "Micro Expression Recognition".

Although the ninjas agreed that it was the cultural dross of the ignorant masses written by the layman, it should be enough to serve the righteous people for a lifetime.

But in desperation, she also smiled with relief.

"At least for the next few years, you shouldn't be too lonely at school.

"Let's go, let's hurry up and follow before Zuo Zhu orders the school on his first day of school."

“…… Good. ”

In this way, under the rapid march all the way, the road of fifteen minutes, the three of them arrived in less than ten minutes.

Looking at the short figures inside the gate of the ninja school, Sasuke stared at each other and carefully scanned them one by one, eager to find the suspicious target.

But after reading it once, he felt that no matter who he was, he seemed to be unbearable, how could he compare with him!

[Mom said it was a very cute child, is it a girl? 】

Not far away, two children saw Zuo Zhu and whispered, "Who is that?" It looks fierce. ”

"It must be the Uchiha, the people from the garrison."

Another child replied in confusion, "My mother said that they just stare at their eyes every day, so their eyes are red." ”

"But he's red with the whites of his eyes, and the others with red with the middle part......"

On the other side, Ino, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw Zuosuke and was about to say hello to him warmly, but found that Zuosuke looked at her viciously, and immediately put down his raised arm.

[Good, so scary......]

Gradually, there are fewer and fewer children staying at the gate of the ninja school, and the girls who originally thought that Zuo Zhu was very handsome also reached a consensus, thinking that it would be safer to stay away from Zuo Zhu in the future.

Fortunately, Uchiha Mikoto and Yoshiyu quickly caught up with Sasuke, which made him calm down a little.

"Don't make a fuss, Sasuke."

She learned Itachi's posture and poked Zuosuke's head, and the latter honestly came down as if he had turned on some switch, glanced at Yiyong, and snorted and turned his head away.

However, Maikoto's attention was not on the two children, but on saluting the oncoming figure: "Three generations of adults. ”

"Oh, it's Mai Trina, ahem, I'm sorry, I'm old, I didn't recognize you until I got closer."

The third generation walked over with his left hand behind his back with an old cigarette gun that had not been lit, and there was no shadow following him.

"Yiyong, long time no see, do you remember me?"

The third generation first greeted Yiyong with a smile, and had expected the latter's unfluctuating expression, and then looked at Zuosuke on the side.

"You're Zuosuke, you look like a very lively child. However, why is this child's face so red, is it shy? ”

[He's so angry......]

Mikoto had a soft smile on her face, but she was guessing in her heart why the three generations intercepted her.

It's probably for the fact that Itachi quit the dark assessment.

Sure enough, after saying two words of encouragement to Zuosuke, the three generations got to the point.

"These two children will definitely be as good as weasel in the future."

He sighed with a sad face: "However, when it comes to Itachi, I think of yesterday's incident...... Although there were some mistakes in the course of this mission, it was not his fault, and I am still satisfied with his performance. It's just that he insists on going to the land of water, and I can't say anything, but I can't figure it out. ”

The reason Itachi gave to the three generations yesterday was that he felt responsible for the sacrifice of the two ninjas (who actually died in the illusion of stopping the water), and the task of stealing the documents was not completed, so he felt very remorseful and wanted to continue to practice with the water stop for a while to improve his strength and experience.

This reason seems reasonable, but the three generations are not stupid.

Itachi's participation in the shadows is the result of the joint efforts of the high-ranking and Uchiha.

If Uchiha Fugaku does not agree, Itachi will not be able to withdraw.

The three generations who had already prepared to invite Jun into the urn and use Kakashi to test and influence Itachi were disrupted, and now they are desperate to know the real reason for Itachi's withdrawal.

He didn't expect to get something out of the mouth of Mikoto Uchiha today, but it didn't hurt to try.

"Itachi is a haughty child, and the failure of this mission has given him a big blow."

Mai Trito pondered and replied, "However, in fact, the deeper reason is that this time Yi Yong had an accident in the Land of Rain, and he felt that he was also responsible.

Although no one in the family blamed him, he never forgave himself, and he couldn't see Yiyong's injury, so he decided to leave for a while.

"Oh, that's right......"

The third generation smacked his lips, as if accepting this statement, and his gaze returned to Yiyong, "I also heard about it, but you are very strong, Yiyong." I thought you'd be delaying coming back to school a few days. Well...... Is it because you don't want to disappoint Naruto, so you stick to it? ”

[Naruto? 】

Zuo Suke's reaction was much more than Yiyong, and he raised his head vigilantly.

[Is that the person?] 】

"Okay, I'll wait here for a long time. Go first, the opening ceremony will start soon, and when the time comes, don't think I'm an old man. ”

"You're laughing."

Mai Qin saluted with her two children at the same time, "Then we will go in first, three generations of adults." ”

The three generations watched their backs gradually fade away with a smile, but more on Yiyong's body.

Shisui, who was supposed to deliver Uchiha information to Konoha and Itachi, who planned to develop into a spy, are now far away from the village.

Although he was not as desperate as Danzou was to guard against the Uchiha, he had no way of knowing what they were secretly planning, which really made it difficult for him, the Hokage, to sleep.

Now, among Konoha, the only Uchiha who may be on the side of the village is this child who is willing to stand up for others.

[Just, how do you make this child work?] 】

Three generations of old gods are here, and they are lost in thought.
