Chapter 5 Brothers
After Sasuke and Naruto exchanged this sentence, they fell silent again. The atmosphere immediately returned to the starting point.
At this moment, the door of the room was opened, and a boy who looked about 70% similar to Sasuke, about 17 years old, walked out.
Naruto and Sasuke looked at the boy at the same time, and Sasuke immediately ran to the boy excitedly and said, "Brother, I'm training shuriken, are you free? You said you would teach me."
Naruto also knew that this person was the most loyal and idealistic person in the generation, and the man who was willing to slaughter the entire clan for his ideal, Uchiha Itachi.
In Naruto's cognition, Uchiha Itachi was a perfect person, and also a perfect ninja, a great person like his father. And they also had the same weakness, that is, their relatives.
Itachi could return to Konoha Village regardless of danger for Sasuke to warn Danzo not to touch his brother, and Minato could also use the "Shiki Sealing" for Kushina and Naruto just to let Kushina see the grown-up Naruto. Both of them are great people.
Itachi stretched out two fingers, tapped Sasuke's forehead, and smiled: "Forgive me Sasuke, next time." When Sasuke heard Itachi say this, he immediately became like a petty person who was angry, and said unhappily: "It's always like this, hum." After saying that, he turned his face away.
Naruto looked at the interaction between the two brothers, and his heart was full of envy. This kind of family affection was something he had never felt in his three lifetimes.
Itachi saw Naruto and saw that he was looking at the two brothers with envy, and saw the takeaway box in his hand. He smiled and said: "Little brother, are you here to deliver the takeaway? Come in." With that, Itachi took the lead to walk into the house, and Naruto followed in without saying anything. Seeing that they had already gone in, Sasuke had no choice but to follow in.
Itachi pointed to the table in the hall and said to Naruto, "Put it here." After Naruto put the box down, he took out two bowls of ramen and prepared to leave. At this time Itachi said to Naruto: "Little brother, do you want to stay and eat with my brother Sasuke? I just have something to go out for. You are the same age as Sasuke, and I think you can be very good friends."
Sasuke next to him immediately said like a cat with its fur standing on end: "Brother, what did you say? You said that I can be good friends with this idiot with a problem in the brain, stop joking."
Naruto next to him was also immediately furious when he heard Sasuke's evaluation of him: "What did you say? You arrogant and stubborn little kid dared to say that I have a problem in the brain and that I am an idiot. What gives you the right to say that to me?"
Sasuke glanced at Naruto with contempt, and said disdainfully: "It's a hot day, and you're wearing a cloak, a hat, and a mask. You wrap yourself up tightly, with only half of your face showing. If you don't have a problem in the brain, then what is it? You're still dazed and stupid. If you're not an idiot, then what is it?"
After hearing Sasuke's words, Naruto was about to refute, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, because what Sasuke said was all true. Naruto looked at the black robe and cloak, and immediately took it off angrily and threw it out of the window.
Then he stared at Sasuke angrily. Just when he was about to argue with him, he saw Sasuke staring at him blankly. Naruto asked curiously: "Hey, what's wrong with you? Are you stupid? Why are you staring at me?" Sasuke came back to his senses after being asked this. He said: "So it's a girl, girls should be reserved, you are so beautiful"
After hearing what Sasuke said, Naruto vomited blood immediately. Roaring: "I am a man, ah, ah, ah."
Sasuke didn't quite believe that he was a man. Suspiciously, "You are a man." Naruto said fiercely, "What does your suspicious expression mean?" Sasuke snorted and turned his face away, muttering, "Why does a man have to be so beautiful? Anyone would misunderstand. Besides being an idiot, it seems that there must be a pervert." Naruto
immediately became furious and angrily scolded, "It's better than you, you damn tsundere, don't pinch the little devil, plus you have a sharp tongue." After saying that, he also turned his face away. Itachi,
who was standing next to them, looked at their interaction and said with a smile, "Okay, you guys eat first, I have something to do and I'll go out first." This is when Sasuke looked at his brother and said seriously, "You must remember it next time." Itachi smiled and said, "Okay." After saying that, he went out.
Sasuke looked at his brother who was leaving with expectation, and only turned back to look at Naruto after Itachi closed the door and said, "By the way, what's your name, you big idiot." Naruto replied indifferently at this time: "My name is Uzumaki Naruto, and you are a dead tsundere." Sasuke also said indifferently: "My name is Uchiha Sasuke, and you are not allowed to scold me, you big idiot."
Naruto also replied indifferently: "Okay, but you are not allowed to scold me either." Sasuke did not answer but just said: "Let's eat, I'm starving." Sasuke sat down directly and started eating ramen. Naruto looked at him and sat down to eat. No one spoke.
When he finished eating, Sasuke went outside to practice shuriken. Naruto saw him training and came over and started practicing with him. Sasuke saw Naruto practicing, and after a slight pause, he continued to practice without saying much.
But he saw that Naruto's shuriken was not weaker than his, and he had more skills than him, so he immediately became dissatisfied and wanted to compete with Naruto to see who was stronger.
In fact, Naruto was the same. He was surprised to find that Sasuke's progress was too fast. Originally, he could only hit 6 or 7 out of 10 shurikens, but later he hit all of them, and the speed of his skill improvement was also amazing.
In the end, the two of them continued to become stronger in the competition. They also recognized each other. They practiced until the evening, and it was almost dark.
During this period, Itachi came, but they were too serious to notice it. Then a man and a woman came, who were Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto.
Itachi was about to speak when he was stopped by Fugaku's eyes. Fugaku looked at Sasuke's shuriken and it was incredible. This kind of progress was not something that Sasuke could have at ordinary times.
The one next to him was his good friend, the fourth Hokage's child, and his progress was equally incredible. After watching for a while, he took Mikoto and Itachi back, and Naruto and Sasuke didn't notice anything.
Just when the two were concentrating on practicing, a pleasant voice came from behind them: "It's time to eat, Sasuke, Naruto." The two came to their senses and saw the woman behind them.
Sasuke shouted happily: "Mom." But Naruto stared blankly. Uchiha Mikoto smiled and took Sasuke's hand, then stretched out her other hand to hold Naruto's hand, and Naruto was also pulled back to the house by her.
By the time Naruto came to his senses, he was already sitting at a round table. He sat with Sasuke, and across from him sat Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Mikoto, and Uchiha Itachi. Mikoto picked up some food for him and said, "Naruto, come and eat, why are you standing there?" Naruto looked at the food in the bowl and was at a loss for a moment. Sasuke next to him was also a little confused.
At this time, Uchiha Fugaku's voice came: "Mikoto, your sudden enthusiasm will make the child overwhelmed." At this time, Uchiha Mikoto also realized the low-level mistake she made. She immediately said, "Am I too happy? Thinking about how friendly Naruto and Sasuke are, and Naruto is growing up safely, am I too happy?"
Uchiha Fugaku looked at Naruto and said, "You should be very surprised, but there is nothing strange about it. It's just that your parents are best friends with us, and before you were born, our two families hoped that you and Sasuke could become good brothers." After hearing what Fugaku and Mikoto said, Sasuke felt a little incredible, but Naruto was very calm.
Fugaku was a little surprised to see Naruto so calm and said, "You don't seem to feel strange or surprised at all." Naruto then said calmly, "Well, I saw deep love and care in Aunt Mikoto's eyes, and I saw relief in Uncle Fugaku's eyes.
Such eyes are only seen by elders when they look at juniors. You are not like others. You only look at me with cold disgust and hatred. So I think you must have a deep friendship with my dead parents."
After hearing Naruto's answer, Fugaku, Mikoto and Itachi were already rising from surprise to shock, amazed at the child's high IQ, which was simply appalling. At the same time, he thought of Minato in his heart and could only sigh: "He is worthy of being his child. His IQ is really terrifying. Hahaha, okay, okay, let's eat."
Naruto said very politely at this time: "Thank you uncle and aunt for your hospitality. Although I really want to ask about my parents, I think you won't tell me, right?"
Fugaku looked into Naruto's eyes and said, "Although I really want to tell you, we really can't tell you.
I'm sorry, Naruto." Although Naruto was a little disappointed, he still replied calmly: "I was unreasonable and made you embarrassed. I'm sorry."
Fugaku also replied: "It doesn't matter. Although we can't tell you what you want to know, your parents are gone, but you can treat us as your family. Sasuke is your brother, Itachi is your brother, and Mikoto and I will watch you grow up on behalf of your parents."
After that, Fugaku turned around and asked Sasuke: "Sasuke, do you want Naruto to be your brother?" Sasuke didn't expect his father to ask for his opinion. He was a little surprised, but he quickly came to his senses and thought about it.
He said to Fugaku: "Although he is a little bit stupid. But I can still accept him, after all, he is not a bad person." Naruto was still very moved. Although Sasuke's words made him a little angry, he could hear that he was sincere.
Fugaku asked Naruto again: "Are you willing to become a member of our family?" Seeing the sincerity hidden in Fugaku's calm eyes, his heart was immediately warmed. He gently replied "Yes."
After hearing the answers of Sasuke and Naruto, Fugaku's calm eyes flashed a little fluctuation but quickly concealed it. After nodding, he said coldly: "Then let's eat." But Naruto discovered the fluctuation hidden in Fugaku's eyes. Jinchūriki is very sensitive to eyes.
Suddenly, he can understand why Sasuke is so cold and arrogant, because Sasuke's temperament is basically like his father. Naruto was speechless and could only bury his head in eating. He kept asking himself in his heart whether it was because he was too eager for family affection that he impulsively agreed to Fugaku's proposal.
After finishing his meal, Naruto promised Sasuke that he would train with him tomorrow, and then he returned to his small room. Lying on the bed, Naruto thought of the caring eyes of Fugaku and Mikoto, and his heart suddenly felt warm.
Naruto looked at the moon outside the window and murmured, "It seems that the plan has to change a little."
