"elder brother?"
Sasuke Uchiha's expression changed quickly, and he asked with great surprise, "Why are you back today?"
"I just finished my task yesterday, so I don't have anything to do today."
Itachi Uchiha patted his head and asked, "Why do you look so worried?"
"I lost to Naruto again in today's practical lesson."
Sasuke Uchiha's expression froze, and he reluctantly spoke.
"As a ninja, it's normal to have wins and losses."
Itachi Uchiha comforted him, saying, "No one can win all the time."
After Sasuke Uchiha lost to Naruto Uzumaki last time, he looked into the situation.
how to say?
The loss was not unjust.
If he were seven years old and encountered an opponent who knew the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, he would have found it very troublesome.
"Brother, have you ever lost?"
Uchiha Sasuke looked up and asked curiously.
In his mind, Itachi Uchiha was invincible and a super genius that the Uchiha clan rarely saw in a century.
"Of course, we have been defeated."
An image of a masked man appeared in Itachi Uchiha's mind, and he said in a deep voice, "And it was a crushing defeat; he almost lost his life."
He was referring to the time he opened his eyes.
If the masked man hadn't spared him, he would have ended up dead like his teammates.
"what?"
Sasuke Uchiha stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.
"Sasuke, this is the ninja world; there will always be all sorts of powerful enemies."
Itachi Uchiha's expression returned to normal, and he said gently, "It's better for you to lose at the Ninja Academy than to lose after graduation."
Is that so?
Sasuke Uchiha nodded, seemingly understanding.
"Come on, I'm free these next couple of days, I can teach you illusion magic."
Itachi Uchiha stood up and said with a smile.
Why do you seem to be in a really good mood today, brother?
Sasuke Uchiha tilted his head and asked.
"is it?"
Uchiha Itachi paused for a moment, then said, "He's probably happy to see you."
In reality, it was a series of chain reactions caused by Tsunade's forced entry into the Root base.
The Uchiha clan and Konoha Village enjoyed their most peaceful days in recent years.
The heavy losses suffered by the Root clan led Danzo Shimura to temporarily spare the Uchiha clan.
His current focus is on Tsunade.
He was afraid that when he woke up, Konoha would have a new Hokage, so he had to keep an eye on her at all times.
Fugaku Uchiha, unusually assertive, took a hard line because Itachi Uchiha had participated in Tsunade's forced entry into the Root base.
He directly ordered the Uchiha clan to be restrained, which reduced conflict.
In Itachi Uchiha's view, if such a life could continue, he wouldn't have so many troubles.
What he regretted even more was that Uchiha Shisui didn't get to see this scene.
"I don't want to learn illusion magic."
Uchiha Sasuke walked into the courtyard and said sullenly, "Genjutsu doesn't work on Naruto."
"It's not working?"
Itachi Uchiha was slightly taken aback.
"Yes."
Sasuke Uchiha replied, "I used genjutsu twice today, and he broke free from both of them instantly."
That shouldn't be the case.
Itachi Uchiha suddenly realized the reason.
To instantly break a genjutsu, one must either possess the Mangekyou Sharingan or be a Jinchuriki.
Itachi Uchiha hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped himself.
He can't exactly tell Sasuke that it's normal that you can't control him, unless you can control the Nine-Tails inside his stomach as well.
But if that happens, Hiruzen Sarutobi will definitely not sit still.
The peace that the Uchiha clan has finally achieved will be shattered again.
"How about this?"
Uchiha Itachi pondered for a moment, then smiled and asked, "How about I teach you a Body Flicker Technique?"
"I'll study this!"
Sasuke Uchiha's eyes lit up, and he said.
Genjutsu is useless against Naruto Uzumaki, but if he can be faster than him, he can create opportunities for victory.
He lost to Hinata Hyuga before because of Konoha's Body Flicker Technique.
After leaving the ninja academy, Kitazawa returned to Kurenai Yuhi's house.
But he didn't go inside; he stopped at the doorway.
He discovered that the door to the house next door, where Tsunade and Shizune lived, was not closed.
"You're back so early today?"
Kitazawa was surprised, so he stepped forward.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"It is you."
Shizune breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him.
"what happened?"
Kitazawa jokingly asked, "Why do you look so relieved when you see me?"
"Because all day long, from morning till night, people have been coming to visit Lady Tsunade."
Shizune said with a helpless expression, "There's not even time to rest."
"Who?"
Kitazawa paused for a moment, then asked.
"Most of the ninja clans and some Chunin and Jonin."
"Silent replied."
"Could it be related to the roots?"
Kitazawa realized what was happening and asked.
"Ah."
Shizune nodded and said, "They've all come to thank Lady Tsunade."
"Of course."
Kitazawa couldn't help but smile and said, "Being separated from the root is a huge deal."
"Come in and let's talk."
Jingyin casually closed the door and said.
"Didn't I tell you? I'm missing!"
Before she even stepped into the living room, Tsunade's impatient voice rang out.
"Lady Tsunade, why are you so angry?"
Kitazawa looked around and asked.
The corner was piled high with all sorts of gifts, forming a small mountain.
"Kitazawa?"
Tsunade saw him and said with a displeased look, "You're already out of school? Damn it! I didn't even go to the casino today!"
"Lady Tsunade, missing a day of gambling won't be a loss for you."
Kitazawa said reassuringly.
For Tsunade, who always loses at gambling, every day she gambles less is a day she gains more.
"Never mind, I'll go tomorrow."
Tsunade snorted and said, "If I get up early, I won't be blocked at the door!"
She's used to sleeping in late.
When she woke up this morning, there were quite a few people lining up at the door to see her.
"They've all come to give gifts, why is Lady Tsunade so unhappy about it?"
Kitazawa pointed to the piles of gifts not far away and asked.
"..."
Tsunade pursed her lips upon hearing this.
Giving gifts is a pretense; expressing loyalty is the real intention.
She felt that if she wanted to, she could sideline Hiruzen Sarutobi and become Hokage the next day.
That's why she found it so annoying.
"You've come at the perfect time."
Tsunade stood up, a smile on her face. "I'll teach you superhuman strength now."
"How about we learn it tomorrow?"
Upon hearing this, Kitazawa immediately sensed something was wrong.
"So verbose!"
Tsunade clenched her fist and said, "Come on, let's go outside!"
"..."
Kitazawa hesitated for a moment, but in the end he could only obediently follow her.
"what's the situation?"
Silent stood there, stunned.
Has Kitazawa already started learning superhuman strength?
Once I learn the Yin Seal, won't I become the second Tsunade?
But what's even more critical is that Kitazawa's strength has now surpassed hers.
She can no longer be called a senior sister; she should be called a junior sister.
The two people went outside.
"Let me check your chakra first."
