13 Uchiha Sasuke's division
Here, Naruto Uzumaki was hit by Kaguya's solid mouth cannon, and fell into reminiscences and self-doubt about the past, while on the other side, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but start sighing one after another after the communication with the Konoha higher-ups.
"Sasuke, you've been sighing over there from time to time since you just walked out of the venue...... Is it because the questions asked by the four generations of adults are a little too sharp and frequent? ”
Seeing his younger brother fall into contemplation in the face of the plate of hot dumplings that had just been served, Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead with some concern, and asked with a worried expression.
"No, that kind of thing, not really."
Uchiha Sasuke came back to his senses, shook his head gently, a little lonely, and said with a little envy:
"I can't help but feel a little emotional because I saw the fourth generation Hokage himself who is still alive, and from his words and deeds, I can see the difference between him and the third generation Hokage and other Konoha high-level officials......"
Sasuke Uchiha couldn't help but let out a long sigh when he thought about the blonde man who listened carefully to his every statement, who was always able to say a well-thought-out question at the right time when he was ready, and who was able to apologize very sincerely for the inappropriateness of his speech.
If the four generations of Hokage Bo Feng Shui Gate did not die during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, but survived well, and governed Konoha well as the Hokage, then whether it was the voice of the Uchiha clan who wanted to betray Konoha or the night of the extermination of the clan later, it should have dissolved under his seriousness, sincerity, excellence and sunshine in silence, right?
And as the Hokage who was born as the first civilian in Konoha, Bo Feng Shuimen's mind should also be able to allow his successor to come from the Uchiha clan, right?
Starting from the assumption that Bo Feng Shuimon had not died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Uchiha Sasuke's thoughts began to diverge endlessly.
He saw Itachi Uchiha, who was entrusted with a heavy task by Bo Feng Shuimon and finally stood out from the crowd of competitors and became the fifth Hokage;
I saw the Uchiha clan who further carried forward their pride and excellence under the rule of Uchiha Itachi, and the self who chased after his brother's back as a matter of course, while secretly competing with his brother, and at the same time sincerely defending his brother's glory as the Hokage;
He saw Naruto Uzumaki, who was no longer ostracized, feared, and alienated by the people of Konoha because of his identity as an orphan and human pillar power, and saw the other party brazenly saying that he wanted to be a better Hokage than Itachi, and then he and himself became old enemies to promote each other's progress;
……
Although Uchiha Sasuke knows that if he hadn't experienced the pain and suffering of his childhood, and hadn't experienced those heart-rending losses and sorrows, neither himself nor Naruto Uzumaki would have grown into such a powerful ninja as he did later, and the entire ninja world would probably have been dragged into the eternal dream of Infinite Moon Reading because he and Naruto had not grown up......
But Uchiha Sasuke still can't help but feel that rather than going through pain and suffering to become the savior who saves the world, he still hopes that he can grow up in the company of his family, continue to grow stronger in the healthy competition with Naruto, you chase me, move forward in the mood of half longing for his brother's back and half admitting defeat, and finally meet the final battle with the revived Goddess of U together with the Konoha ninjas who are worthy of his dedication and protection.
Probably because that fantasy was too warm, so that a soft smile slowly appeared on Uchiha Sasuke's face, which had become accustomed to indifference, and looking at Uchiha Sasuke's uncontrollable smile, Uchiha Itachi's mood became a little heavy.
With the younger brother he was familiar with, and the usual indifferent and tense expression of this "younger brother" from a few decades in the future, Uchiha Itachi didn't even need to use his brain to think, and he knew that the younger brother from the future in front of him didn't actively choose to become the indifferent appearance that he rarely even smiled at now.
So, who is the person who forced him step by step into what he is now?
It's those old Konoha people who are old-fashioned, complacent, and refuse to hand over their rights, and the ninjas who are bound to the limitations of the ninja profession but don't know it, and the arrogant self who is obviously not able to change all abilities, but always wants to solve everything alone.
"There are more geniuses in the ninja world who are good at fighting and killing, but do they really have a result? No, the result they get is nothing but war never changes, and an incomparably rudimentary theory of the chain of hatred. ”
"As long as there is a reconciliation between two leaders who have hatred, can two villages with conflicting interests turn enemies into friends and never invade each other again? As long as everyone is willing to sit down and talk, can peace really come? As long as the ninjas are expecting peace in their hearts, no one will want to provoke a war anymore? ”
"If no one seriously thinks about these issues, separates the core contradictions and conflicts from them for study, and then teaches the analysis of these issues to more people who can understand them, the ninja will always be just a knife in the hands of others."
"So reading more books, reading more history, and building philosophical thinking and humanities from scratch with the characteristics of the ninja world is much more valuable than trying to open a pair of kaleidoscope writing wheels...... Well, at least in my time, it was. ”
Suppressing the sudden Kaguya mercy's advice in his mind, Uchiha Itachi blinked, and then looked at Sasuke Uchiha, who couldn't help but look embarrassed because of the sweet four-color dumplings in his hand, and called out the other party's name very seriously.
"Sasuke."
"Huh? What's wrong, Itachi? Uchiha Sasuke swallowed the dumpling that was a little too sweet for him, and looked at the Uchiha Itachi with a straight face suspiciously.
"You came to our time through that big wooden treasure that can travel through time and space, right?"
"Well, yes, what's the problem?"
"If it can take people back from the future to the past...... So can we reverse the situation and bring people from the past to the future world? ”
Uchiha Itachi's question made Uchiha Sasuke subconsciously show a vigilant look, but when he thought that the person in front of him was a good brother Uchiha Itachi who had not experienced those darkness at all, his expression suddenly relaxed again, and he speculated in an uncertain tone:
"It should ...... Yes, right? After all, the previous Otsuki Kipo wanted to use the 'plow' to travel back in time to the past of the ninja world, to take the Nine-Tails from Naruto, who had not yet grown up, and bring it back to our era as the material for the resurrection of the Ten-Tails...... What is this for, Itachi? ”
"Probably because of curiosity, and a crazy idea that popped up out of nowhere."
Uchiha Itachi sorted out his thoughts for a moment, then looked at Uchiha Sasuke, sat upright, and said sincerely:
"Although I know that the idea is a little crazy, and a little rude and offensive, ...... If I can, I'd like to follow you to the future where you are when Sasuke returns to the future. ”
"Why did you suddenly have such an idea, Itachi?"
Uchiha Sasuke didn't directly refuse Uchiha Itachi's request, but instead asked the brother in front of him who looked like a crepe crepe why he wanted to do it.
"Probably, I want to add more of my own knowledge before officially becoming a teacher who teaches and educates, and through the study of the historical development of a world that is not born with Mizukage-sama, I will analyze the origin, development and limitations of the ninja profession more deeply, so that people in the ninja world can more easily and clearly understand what the reform methods that started from the fog are for, right?"
Uchiha Itachi gave such an unexpected, but reasonable answer for Uchiha Sasuke.
"You're still the kind of person you like to think about most people, Itachi." Uchiha Sasuke put down the dango in his hand and said in a somewhat nostalgic tone.
"It's not exactly for the rest of the ninja world......"
Itachi Uchiha pushed his flat glasses and said frankly:
"I have listened to a lot of teachings from Mizukage-sama, and I have also learned a lot of theoretical knowledge, one of which is called practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, go to your era and take a look, and see if history under normal circumstances can be analyzed and verified with what I have learned......
"In other words, is this your personal desire, Itachi?"
"Ah, let's just think it's my willfulness, Sasuke...... May I? Uchiha Itachi asked with a slight apprehension.
"I'll go talk to Naruto." Sasuke Uchiha took a deep breath and took Itachi's hand with his right hand, "After all, this is my first chance to help you fulfill your personal selfish wishes, Itachi." ”
"Sasuke ......"
"Itachi ......"
The two looked at each other like this, and each saw their joyful self and excited each other from each other's eyes.
And on the street not far from where they were sitting, Sasuke Uchiha (small), who was with Naruto Bo Feng because he was unwilling to eavesdrop and failed, followed the two all the way, was already so angry that his face was red and green, and it was not strange to open the writing wheel eye on the spot or even the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye.
And Naruto Bokaze, who was beside him, gloated and added fuel to the fire:
"Hey, don't you think that uncle's version of you is better suited to stay by your Nissan's side than the real you, Sasuke?"
"Whew...... Call...... Wave! Wind! Toll! Person! Do you just want to die!? ”
"In a hurry? But am I wrong? Your Nissan has already agreed with your uncle's version that you want to go to the future with him, and admit that this is his personal selfish wish...... Did he say such a thing to you so seriously, Sasuke Uchiha? ”
“…… Naruto Naruto. Sasuke Uchiha (Jr.) took a deep breath.
"How?" Naruto Bofeng tilted his head and asked without the slightest realization.
"I'm going to kill you! One! Thousand! All over! Also! No! Enough!!! ”
With a pair of blood-red eyes of the three-hooked jade, Sasuke Uchiha (small) angrily pounced on Naruto Bokaze, and on the spot scuffled with this evil friend he had known since childhood.
And Uchiha Sasuke (Big), who noticed the movement here in the exclamations of passers-by, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth because of the pair of three-hooked jade writing wheel eyes flashing in Uchiha Sasuke (Small)'s eye sockets, and showed a very embarrassed expression.
I don't know why, when I wrote the second pillar, I obviously felt that it was very pleasant and easy to write, but the speed of writing the code word was ridiculously slow......
