Chapter 169: [The Flag Has Been Established]
"Patriarch, the ninja who claims to be the Dark Division, codenamed 'Rinkang', is waiting at the gate of the clan land, indicating that the three generations of Hokage are waiting for you to come over for a meeting."
With the knock on the door of 'Dong Dong Dong', the sound of respectful words sounded from outside the study, making Itachi's original hand pause.
"Got it."
He replied calmly, not surprised, and got up from his seat and turned off the lamp.
"After I leave, everything will be business as usual in the clan, and there is no need to react violently."
Itachi opened the door and spoke softly.
"But in the early morning, there was information that came back that a meeting had been held on Konoha's side,"
The Uchiha Iron Fire who passed the word hesitated a little, lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Now the patriarchs of the Konoha clans in the Hokage Building have gathered, and there are a few old things including Sarutobi Suncut, and they temporarily called us over for a meeting......"
"Iron Fire."
Before he could finish speaking, a cold voice interrupted his train of thought.
When he raised his head, the Uchiha Iron Fire met a pair of blood-red eyes, and the words that came to his mouth were somehow unable to spit out.
"Ape Flying Sun Slash is undoubtedly a dedicated person for Konoha ."
Itachi looked at him, and a calm voice came out of his mouth, "Although we are in a different position, there is no need to be disrespectful in words. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, "Besides, I have already expected this trip, and it is inevitable to face it. ”
"Help me pass the word to Huomen and Sleeve Cloud, and everything in the clan will remain stable."
"Whatever you've heard, seen, or heard during the time I've been away, don't pay attention to it, just do your thing quietly and wait for me to come back."
“…… Be. ”
The Uchiha Iron Fire hesitated for a moment, nodded respectfully, and then slowly retreated, disappearing in front of Itachi.
As he left, the hallway calmed down.
The ferret took a stride in the direction of the main house.
If the Uchiha wants to leave Konoha, he must inform the Konoha higher-ups.
Otherwise, a massive build-up of people, which is inexplicable.
"Oh, our little Zuo Zhu is so smart."
Mother's gentle voice rang out from inside the main room, accompanied by the sound of Yiyi's childish laughter.
When Itachi arrived at the main house, he saw his mother, who was accompanying his brother in the puzzle, and Artoria reading the scroll at the low table on the other side.
"Brother!"
Itachi's figure appears, blocking the sunlight that shines into the house from the outside, and at the same time, it also attracts the attention of Sasuke, who is working on the puzzle.
Without hesitation, he dropped the blocks, raised his arms high, and ran towards this side with nimbly steps.
And the weasel, who was originally expressionless, looked at the figure trotting over, his expression gradually eased, he laughed stiffly, and reached out to pick him up, "I can already run and jump, almost, I should also teach Zuo to help some basic physical fitness ......"
He proposed.
In a few months, Zuosuke will be almost two years old, and it will almost be time to start exercising.
But before the words were finished, what appeared in Itachi's vision was a stern face, and the words that came to his mouth somehow could no longer be spit out.
"Don't even think about it!"
Maikoto, who was sitting on the ground and watching their brothers get along in harmony, turned cold, and instantly came to Itachi's face, stretched out his hand and directly grabbed Zuo Zhu in his arms, "You and your father are the same, how old is Zuo Zhu?" You, the elder brother, just want to make him suffer. ”
"Back then, I was inexperienced before I was tricked by your father, and let him teach you that when you were so young, and take you to the battlefield."
"I asked other families later, and normal children grow up happily, and only when they are almost old do they start learning to become ninjas......"
The words were repeated one after another, and the crackling head and face slammed into the ferret.
It was so striking that the weasel stood in place, not daring to refute it for half a sentence.
Flutter.
On the other side of the low table, there was a very slight laughter.
However, when Itachi's gaze swept over, Artoria was looking at the scroll in her hand with a serious face, as if she hadn't heard the doorway.
Obviously, there was only five or six steps between her and them.
And was snatched away by Mai Trin.,The left assistant 'Yi Ya Yiya' who was in his arms also laughed non-stop.,From time to time he coaxed.,While learning Mikoto's words,While stretching out his little finger to poke this brother who often doesn't see people.。
"Ahem......"
Seeing that her mother couldn't stop as soon as she spoke, and began to count her father's badness, Itachi coughed lightly, "The dark tribe called by the third generation is still waiting at the gate of the clan, and I have a few words to discuss with Artoria." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the woman on the side of the low table, who had not concealed it at all, with a smile on her face.
“…… The people of the shadows? ”
Hearing the three generations, Uchiha Mikoto instinctively frowned, she had a very good impression of the old man before, kind and respectable.
But ever since he left the village with Itachi half-forced, half-tentatively, she had a very bad impression of the old man.
"Do you need to go outside and talk about it?"
Hearing her name mentioned, Artoria stood up at the right time, her expression serious, and there was no trace of a snicker on her face.
"No need."
Itachi shook his head, "Just a few words." ”
As he spoke, he stepped up to her.
Next to her, Mikoto sat aside at the right time with Zuosuke in her arms and didn't disturb them, but she didn't leave.
"A lot of my things, a lot of ideas, you have watched me all the way, very clear and understand me."
Itachi spoke softly, looking at her calmly, "If something happens, I'd like to ask you to give me orders." ”
"There are several scrolls in the study, you can write the contents of the scrolls according to the actual situation, command the people of the clan under the pretense of secret orders, and if necessary, you can also ask your mother to help help."
"Up to now, many things have been under my control, but you and I both know that people's hearts are the most difficult content to figure out, so if something happens, please be sure to stabilize the emotions in the clan and avoid ...... Someone with a heart brings up the rhythm, please. ”
"It looks like it's going to be a crucial time."
Artoria looked back at him seriously and said solemnly, "I, Artoria Pendragon, swear by the sword in my hand that I will do my best to protect your family and friends, this is my promise to you. ”
Between the words, the momentum on her body had changed.
A dazzling golden light faintly appeared in his hand.
At this time, what she held in her hand was Artoria's manifest holy sword, the golden sword that would prevail when she truly settled in this world.
It converges the kind of girlish appearance that has gradually formed in this quiet life.
A little more, as a warrior, a ruler, a king's posture, serious and powerful.
On the other side, Uchiha Mikoto was a little worried, "Itachi ......"
"Please, Artoria."
Itachi spoke solemnly again, and then looked at his mother, "Don't worry, mother, I still have a lot of confidence about this matter." ”
He is not a god and cannot have expected everything.
The only thing you can do is to think about how to deal with mistakes or mistakes before they happen.
During and after he left for the meeting, no matter what happened, with Artoria in charge, he could at least think about countermeasures in peace, without letting anxiety and irritability affect his judgment.
