Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 237 The Confrontation Begins

232 chapter

The firelight reflected the girl's fresh and sweet smile, and itachi couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Itachi is already very aware of the position that Quan unknowingly occupies in his heart, but with his character, he is doomed to be unable to say too coy words.

"what."

He didn't know how to answer, so he responded softly.

Seeing Itachi's astonished expression, Quan smiled lightly again.

She understands Itachi's personality, and knows that this is the limit of Itachi's ability.

That's enough.

For a moment, Izumi wished that time could stay in the present moment forever, because in this way, Itachi wouldn't have to bear the weight in her heart that she didn't know.

But it was just Quan's short-lived and innocent thoughts as a girl of this age.

As a ninja, she understands that everyone has to shoulder their own responsibilities.

After all, the so-called ninjas must endure things that ordinary people cannot bear.

The darkness gradually faded, and the first ray of sunlight in the early morning slanted down from the sky and landed on the grass of the seventh training ground.

The bonfire raised in the training ground has already been extinguished, and there are still wisps of smoke.

At this time, the four of Itachi had already started the last day of special training.

The faces of Izumi, Daisuke Kido, and Shinichi Hattori were full of energy.

The cooperation and connection between them has been extremely perfect. Under the cooperation and entanglement of the three of them, the ordinary Jonin has been unable to successfully perform seals and release ninjutsu.

The whole morning passed quickly.

"Okay, let's stop here today. After working so hard for so long, you should take a good rest."

Itachi looked at the three of them and said that the results of Quan's practice had exceeded his previous expectations.

Tomorrow will be the test time agreed upon by Fourth Hokage and Danzo.

Hattori Shinichi and others also understand the principle of combining work and rest. In order to be able to perform at their best tomorrow, stopping at this time is also part of the special training.

The four immediately left the training ground, and after saying goodbye to Kido and Hattori, Itachi and Izumi returned to the Uchiha clan together.

In the evening, after Itachi took Sasuke home, Fuyue returned home before dinner.

At dinner time, Fu Yue looked at Itachi and asked, "How are the preparations going?"

Itachi became a ninja team, and of course it was impossible to hide from Fu Yue, the captain of Konoha's security force, that he was tested by Konoha's high-level officials.

"Well, everyone has worked very hard during this time, no problem." Itachi replied.

"Don't push yourself too hard."

Mikoto looked at Itachi with gentle eyes, she didn't want her child to bear so many heavy burdens.

"boom!"

At this moment, Sasuke suddenly stood up with his hands on the table, and said very seriously: "With my brother's ability, I can definitely complete the test!"

His small face was firm and unwavering.

Seeing this, Meiqin and Fuyue were slightly taken aback.

The two looked at each other, Fuyue folded his arms and said, "Of course, as my son, Itachi can certainly do it."

"Tomorrow, I will also go to the test site."

Fuyue looked at Itachi, a smile appeared on his usually rigid face.

Itachi nodded and said, "I will do my best."

Fuyue continued: "There is one more thing. Many people in the security forces and Konoha's major families already know about this test."

"Although I don't want to put pressure on you, you'd better be mentally prepared first."

"Yes." Itachi replied.

Fuyue's statement means that if Itachi leads his team to victory in this confrontation, then he will inevitably receive attention from Uchiha and even the entire village.

In this period of strong and peaceful Konoha, being the captain of the ninja team at the age of 11 is, in a sense, more shocking than Kakashi, who was promoted to the ninja at the age of 12.

the next day.

The venue where the Itachi team confronted the four root members was chosen as the battle venue for the Chunin Exam.

In the huge training ground, Minato sat at the top with several Konoha executives and Fuyue.

Immediately afterwards, from the entrances at both ends of the venue, four people walked out slowly.

The two teams were walking toward each other, and when they reached the field and there was still a distance of about ten meters between them, they stopped first.

"What kind of costume is that?"

Daisuke Kido looked curiously at the root members wearing strange costumes and masks.

"A ninja from Anbu? No, probably not"

Hattori Shinichi looked over and thought, there are often Anbe ninjas in and out of Naruto's office, so he has seen many of them when accepting delivery tasks before.

But although the costumes of the root members are similar to those of Anbu, there are still differences.

And they feel different.

But this is of course, Gen is not only an organization directly under the command of Danzo, but also the training department of Anbu in name.

The eyes of the two sides intertwined, and the root ninja wearing a mask had no waves in his eyes, as if he had no emotion.

The look in their eyes made the three of them feel a little uncomfortable.

Then, the two teams turned around and looked at the high-level Konoha including the water gate on the high platform.

Minato smiled and nodded at Itachi.

Compared to him, Fu Yue's expression was relatively indifferent, but the eyes he looked at Itachi were of course full of anticipation.

Several high-level Konohas also focused their attention on Itachi.

Out of respect from his subordinates, Itachi nodded slightly to them.

Danzo looked at Itachi at this time, and his indifferent eyes looked down.

Itachi just ignored his gaze.

Seeing this, a gloomy expression appeared on Danzo's face, and he looked at the ninjas who were rooted.
On the high platform, Minato stood up, looked at the field, and announced: "The competition, now...start!"

As his voice fell, the two teams in the duel field instantly entered a fighting state.

The overall reaction of the team composed of four root members is naturally faster than Itachi and the others.

However, their reaction is of course impossible to compare with Itachi.

"Bang bang bang!"

Itachi immediately took out the smoke bomb that had been prepared in advance, and threw it on the ground forcefully.

Immediately, the purple smoke filled the air, covering the figures of Itachi and the four root members.

"This kid is looking for his own death." Seeing this, Danzo raised a playful look at the corner of his mouth.

"Shhhhhh!"

At this time, in the diffused purple smoke, countless black afterimages shot out quickly, shooting directly at the few root members.

"Hey!"

Itachi opened the Sharingan at the same time as he issued the shuriken, and two hook jade appeared in the eyes.

The shuriken he threw just now was based on the position of the root ninja before the smoke from the smoke bomb diffused.

And there is not much time left for Itachi to make a move, so to let the shuriken's attack include all four root members, it is natural to sacrifice some accuracy.

"Clang clang clang!"

In the purple smoke, someone kept knocking down the shuriken.

At the same time, there was a voice in the fog.

"The target is at nine o'clock!"

When the root members got the information, Itachi also heard it.

"Sure enough. Do sentient ninjas exist?"
