Universal deduction starting from Konoha

Chapter 93 Meeting with Itachi
wow~
The water stop composed of crows suddenly shattered and scattered.

The gathered crows quickly split into two, forming two distinct waves of crow forces.

However, the two groups of crows that were separated soon gathered together.

Not long after, the two teenagers stood facing each other.

"Itachi, long time no see~"

At the moment when he got into human form, Zhishui smiled and waved.

Itachi, who had been shocked for a while, changed back to his original appearance, and was stunned by the sudden greeting.

After being stunned for a long time, I still couldn't recover from the surprise.

Zhishui, who noticed something strange, had no choice but to ask again.

"What's the matter, Itachi, don't you know me? I'm Shisui?"

However, the joy after the reunion did not appear on Itachi's face.

When he saw Zhishui, he was very vigilant about his surroundings, with a cold look in his eyes.

"You actually know how to clone a bird, who are you?"

Zhishui was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect Itachi to react like this, scratched his head and said anxiously.

"Itachi, it's really me. Actually, I didn't expect to meet you in this way. After I jumped off the cliff that day, I was actually saved."

However, Itachi was still vigilant, apparently Shishui's answer did not convince him completely.

Jiujin really couldn't stand Zhishui's clumsy mouth.

He quickly changed into Jiraiya's appearance, leaning against the wall with his hands folded on his chest, speaking calmly.

"Okay, Zhishui, just talk about the memories you two have in common. What can't be explained?"

Only then did Itachi notice that Jiujin, who looked like Sasuke, had turned into a somewhat familiar old man.

This obviously proves the fact that he was caught.

But what Jiujin said made him suppress his desire to do something, and he focused his attention on Zhishui.

Zhishui also reacted, and quickly patted his brain.

"By the way, Itachi, do you still remember the first time I took you out for training? That day I met root ninjas and fought with them, and then you lost your strength due to overuse of Sharingan."

"In the end you were carried home by me. Although the experience was not very good, it felt good to carry you that day, just like carrying a younger brother."

As Zhishui said, he lowered his head, like a very shy girl, with a faint smile on his lips.

Itachi looked at Shisui in disbelief.

"Really...it was you, but you...was that uncle who saved you?"

Itachi quickly turned his gaze to Jiujin again.

Jiujin, who was a little hairy after being stared at by Itachi, naturally stared back without showing any weakness.

"Hey, brat, I'm not that uncle. The one standing in front of you is Jiraiya, one of the Sannin. Do you have to call senior to understand?"

"Zi Lai Ye? No wonder there is a feeling of déjà vu."

Itachi's hostile eyes narrowed, and he suddenly recalled the first time he saw Jiraiya.

It seemed that when the Fourth Hokage came to power, this middle-aged man was standing aside with a generous smile.

He heard some people whispering around, saying that the white-haired middle-aged man was Ji Lai Ye.

At this moment, the man in memory and the middle-aged man in front of him gradually merged together.

It should have come from here.

But...why did he save Chishui?
Shisui saw Itachi's reaction, although he didn't understand Itachi's thoughts, he still reminded him aloud.

"Itachi, I was indeed rescued by Master Jiraiya. As for the reason, it is a long story, but Master Jiraiya has a way to prevent the family from launching a coup, and now we need our help."

"Is there a way to prevent the family coup?" Itachi murmured in surprise, and then looked at Jiujin very seriously.

However, all the previous hostility and doubts have long since disappeared, and there are only curiosity and expectations.

"Can you really prevent a coup from happening?"

"Whether it can be stopped is not up to me alone. You are the ones who really want to implement the plan. I am only a guide at best. But, Konoha's strength is weakened due to internal fighting, which is really not what I want to see. This is the reason why I must stop your family's coup d'état."

If it were someone else, he would still be suspicious.

But Jiujin is now Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, the apprentice of the third generation.

After all, he was the closest person to be influenced by the will of fire.

After hearing what Jiujin said, Itachi completely calmed down.

After thinking for a moment, he glanced at Jiujin and Shishui.

"If you need me to do anything, you can just say it. If it is really possible to prevent the coup d'etat, I will do my best to help you!"

Hearing Itachi finally agreed to help, Jiujin and Shisui couldn't help but feel a lot easier.

The three of them chatted a lot together, but they didn't talk much about changing the coup d'état.

Given that Itachi had work to do, the alley wasn't entirely safe.

Therefore, the three of them separated for the time being, and made an appointment in the afternoon to go to the grove where Shishui and Itachi often meet to discuss again.

……

05:30 in the afternoon.

In the breezy grove.

The two men each held a few bunches of candied haws in their hands, and were eating with relish.

Suddenly the leaves were trampled to pieces, making a crunchy sound.

The two of them stopped their mouth movements and looked in the direction of the person coming.

The person who came was wearing a cat mask, but after noticing the gazes of the two of them.

He put the mask on one side of his cheek, revealing his usual stern face.

"Itachi, come and taste this, it's super sweet."

As soon as Shishui saw Itachi's figure, he immediately went up to meet him, and handed the candied haws in his hand to Itachi.

Zhishui’s candied haws are a bit special because they don’t just use hawthorn as the core.

There are also strawberries, small apples, tomatoes, plums and other fruits strung together.

Itachi just saw this candied haws, and couldn't move his eyes away.

His eyes were wide open, just like when he saw the three-color ball in Quan's hand when he was a child, he stared straight at it.

"Where did you buy this, Gan Fengtang? Why have I never seen this thing before?"

Shisui replied vaguely while eating.

"Maybe it's Gan Fengtang's new dessert, it's bought by Master Jiraiya. Anyway, just eat it, you won't be disappointed."

"That's it..." Itachi, who took the candied haws, still looked out of shape, but his eyes quickly turned to Jiujin.

Jiujin, who noticed Itachi's gaze, couldn't help but smiled.

"If you want to know anything, just ask, it's just a bunch of candied haws."

Itachi shrunk his mouth slightly, bit down a strawberry wrapped in rock sugar, and shook his head.

"The family meeting is about to be held, let's hurry up. Although the general plan you said before doesn't seem to require me to do anything, but you don't hesitate to become Sasuke to come to me, do you have specific arrangements?"

"Yes, I do need your help. But this is probably a follow-up matter. Of course, it is best if you can come when the clan meeting starts, because there may be accidents or something, and we need you to take care of it outside. "

What Jiujinzhi said was mainly because of the factor of belt soil.

Although the possibility of making trouble is small, it must not be ignored!
