Chapter 143: [Homecoming]

"Brother!"

"Are you an older brother?"

"Why didn't you bring me a gift? Mom said, you went out to buy me a gift. ”

……

Itachi, who galloped home, didn't know what was going on in the Hokage's office.

And even if he knew, he wouldn't care, he could only say that it was expected.

home

In the main hall,

Itachi's arms sat the left assistant,

The soft and glutinous, unclear words came into his ears intermittently one after another, relieving the fatigue along the way.

Although they haven't seen each other for the first time in two months, Zuosuke still maintains familiarity and intimacy the moment he sees him.

"After he could speak, he kept thinking about where his brother went."

Uchiha Mikoto held plates after plates of Itachi's favorite dishes and placed them on the low table, "Thinking that he was too young to know what it meant for you to go out, I just found a reason." ”

"But I didn't expect that you, who are my brother, didn't buy any gifts for my brother when I went out."

“…… Sorry, I didn't really think about that, I didn't think it through. ”

Itachi stiffened and supported Zuosuke's petite body and let him learn to walk, "The next time I go out, I will definitely bring Zuosuke some toys that can't be seen in the village." ”

After a pause, he added, "And you, I've seen a lot of things in Kyoto City this time, and there are a few things that you and your father should like." ”

Itachi's tone was a little guilty.

Along the way, he really didn't think about bringing some gifts to Zuo Zhu, including his parents.

Normally, you need to do this.

When you go out on a long trip, you should bring something for your family and friends, although you say ...... This trip is not a trip.

"And me."

Next to her, Artoria reminded her, "And my gifts." ”

"On this trip to Kyoto City, I saw a lot of dishes that I had never seen before, but unfortunately...... No money to buy. ”

Or rather, there is no way to show up to buy and eat.

Can see but not eat, during the time in Kyoto City, she was hungry for a long time.

"Got it, got it."

Itachi took the crab leg that Zuosuke had taken away from the low table and was about to stuff it into his mouth, but he looked at her helplessly.

However, what neither of them noticed was that when Artoria spoke, Zuosuke's thin-haired head shook.

"You're looking at your brother, he's been getting teeth lately, and he's stuffing everything in his mouth when he sees it."

Mai Trin admonished, "I still have a few dishes to finish over there." ”

As she spoke, she muttered and complained about whether her husband had received the news that the child had come home, and why he hadn't come back yet.

However, before Mai Trin walked out of the main hall, she saw her husband who had hurried home with an instantaneous technique and was landing in the courtyard.

"Hoo ......"

Kicking slightly, Fu Yue's face had this unconcealable urgency, "I'm back." ”

He whispered to his wife, walked up two or three more wooden steps, and stepped up the aisle into the main hall.

The urgent expression on her face visibly changed in Mikoto's field of vision, and when she entered the main hall, her husband's face had become serious, serious, and flat.

"I'm back, I've lost a lot of weight this time."

The moment the calm voice rang in her ears, Mikoto snickered and walked down the wooden aisle towards the kitchen.

There are still a few dishes, which are quickly cooked, and the family can have a neat meal again.

"Father."

Itachi said in a respectful voice, "This trip...... I have seen a lot, learned a lot, and faced a lot. ”

"Tell me more."

Fugaku patted the dust off his body and sat down opposite his eldest son.

"I negotiated with you before, and the matter of relocating and leaving Konoha has reached a preliminary deal with the Daimyo's Mansion, and the people of Konoha have not found out in the process."

"Ape Flying Sun Slash is as we expected, and it has tested me a lot along the way, but it is still stable."

"But on the way back, something happened that affected the whole situation at this stage, and the traitor appeared again......"

……

Itachi replied softly, sorting out what had happened along the way, sorting it out in simple words, and explaining it to his father.

And in his arms, Zuo Zhu couldn't feel the seriousness of the two of them talking about business at all, and continued to touch the plate on the low table from time to time, what crabs, beef bones, meat steaks...... Anything he could smell was picked up and stuffed into his mouth.

And even if it is a soup spoon and a fast child that can't smell the smell, he just grabs it and stuffs it in his mouth.

Itachi could only keep snatching things out of his hands and putting them back in place.

And Zuosuke didn't cry or make trouble, and he was happy to put the thing back in its place and get it back.

I don't know if all children of this age are like this, but if they are, then they probably can't leave under the noses of adults.

"Kaleidoscope, Wood Escape, Time and Space Technique......"

Uchiha Fugaku's face was extremely serious, and his eyes were full of worry.

It is very dangerous for such an enemy with malicious intentions towards the family, or rather a power hidden in the shadows.

"The idea that we originally planned to intensify small contradictions and cause external forces to intervene can come to an end for the time being."

Itachi continued, "With the help of the Masked Man, Konoha won't attack us at this stage for the time being, at least not on the surface. ”

"Now we should think more about the future war."

"There will inevitably be a battle between Yunyin and Konoha, whether it is a large-scale war or a local conflict, we should all prepare early, Konoha and the masked man will not let go of this opportunity to weaken the strength of our clan."

Fugaku could understand what he meant, but ......

"If that masked man is really as you say, there are few in our clan who can stop it."

He replied bitterly, "There is a space-time technique, which comes and goes without a trace, and there is a wooden escape and a kaleidoscope. ”

"If he really has the heart to attack our clan, we can only watch the clansmen being killed, and there is nothing we can do!"

This is what Fugaku is most worried about.

Just because the ferret has the ability to dodge those attacks doesn't mean that other people can.

A lone wolf with no ties and strong strength, they can't afford to provoke it!

"This thing...... I'll figure it out. ”

Itachi also had a headache about this, "Anyway, let's find out if that person is Uchiha Obito or not, and why he became the way he is." ”

"For a person who comes and goes freely in the midst of all hosts and cannot be caught at all, we must first find his weakness."

"At least, let him not dare to provoke us Uchiha easily."

At this time, Artoria, who was staring at the food on the table, suddenly spoke, "I have a suggestion. ”

"If that person is really Uchiha Obito, then he should only have a kaleidoscope writing wheel eye by now."

"And the other eye is on Kakashi's body, can we try to attack from the other eye and break his space-time technique, if his space-time technique is a kaleidoscope child's technique as a premise."

Feasible.

For this suggestion, some thoughts came to Itachi's mind.

"Sister!"

And at this moment, the left assistant in his arms suddenly shouted to Artoria and handed over the palm of the hand holding a meat steak.

Sasuke is already more than a year old and can speak.

Before that, the memory and consciousness were not complete, but they were able to understand some things.

For example, parents, for example, for example, my brother, and for example...... This sister!

In Itachi's field of vision, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes appeared scarlet, and then, like a shuriken-like pattern, stared straight at the position handed over by the left assistant.

Obviously there is nothing there, but why does the young son react like this.

The title 'sister' should not have appeared in this family.

In the past two months, in addition to the brother who often holds him, Zuosuke has mentioned more than once where the blonde-haired sister who often teases him has gone!
