Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 373 Inheritance
368 chapter

"But this way, it's really boring."

Naruto saw that his father had already made a decision, so he stopped talking about it.

When he went out this morning, his mother had warned him that when he saw his father in Hokage's office, he must not follow his own temper.

Although the two are father and son, in Hokage's office, they are subordinate and superior.

"Bored?"

Minato murmured, looking at Itachi, he said to Naruto: "The test that your seventh class conducted yesterday should have made you realize your shortcomings as a ninja."

Naruto, who had a lazy expression, suddenly became serious when he heard this.

"Your practice is far from enough."

Not only reminding Naruto, Minato also looked at Hinata and Sai and said.

"So, before you have accumulated enough experience in going out of the village to perform missions, you still can't stop practicing."

Minato solemnly said that among the graduates, Naruto, Hinata, and Sai are considered excellent in strength, but in terms of truly powerful ninjas, they are still far behind.

Although he didn't know the specifics of what happened in Class [-]'s test yesterday, he believed that facing Itachi, the three children should have realized their lack of strength.

"I see!"

Naruto no longer had any objections to the fact that there was no next task. He walked in front of Minato and said expectantly: "By the way, Dad, you said before that after I graduate, you will teach me new skills!"

"Teach me today, use shadow clone!"

Of course, Minato, who is Hokage, cannot easily leave the Hokage Building during working hours, but if it is just to guide Naruto's practice, a shadow clone is enough.

Before Naruto graduated, Minato had been using this method to guide his practice.

Minato pondered for a moment, then nodded.

He made seals with his hands and summoned a shadow clone.

"Let's go now, I can't wait!"

Naruto walked up to Minato's shadow avatar and said impatiently.

"En." Minato's shadow clone answered him.

"Brother Itachi, Hinata, Sai, I'm leaving first!"

Before leaving, Naruto said goodbye to the rest of his class, and the shadow of Minato put an arm on his shoulder.

Swish!
In an instant, the figures of the two disappeared.

Naruto continued to practice with Minato excitedly, and Itachi, Hinata, and Sai also lost the meaning of staying.

But before leaving, Minato stopped Itachi.

"Let's go first, see you tomorrow."

Itachi gave instructions to the two students.

Hinata and Sai left together.

"You left me, what else is there?" Itachi asked.

Minato smiled and said, "It's about the practice of that little guy in your class."

"Sai?"

Itachi immediately understood who Minato was referring to.

Although he is the teacher of Naruto, Hinata, and Sai, but in terms of practice, Naruto has excellent parental guidance like the Fourth Hokage and Kushina.

Hinata is from the Hyuga family, and itachi who practiced Baiyan and Rouquan couldn't help.

In the seventh class, there is only Sai, who is practicing alone.

"You want me to guide Sai's cultivation?" Itachi asked back.

Minato nodded: "As far as I know, Saii should have learned the root's secret sword technique, and he is also very good at chakra control. It would be appropriate for you to teach him."

"I?"

Itachi was stunned, he didn't use weapons very much in battle.

"Hehe, you don't have to be modest. Zhishui told me that his current saber technique was perfected at the beginning because of your contribution."

Nowadays, the master swordsman in Konoha is Zhishui who has created the school of swordsmanship himself.

"Zhishui is the Anbu under my hand, so any abnormalities will be reported to me."

Minato continued: "You don't mind, do you?"

"of course not."

Itachi said to himself: "So, it's really abnormal."

He was only five years old when he helped Zhishui perfect his knife skills, which is not abnormal at all, but abnormal.

He also didn't ask Shisui to keep this matter a secret, and it's nothing to let Minato, who knows the most details about Itachi, know.

"The ninjas in Anbu and Genbu don't know much about teaching. As Sai's teacher, it's the best choice for you to guide him directly."

Minato explained that he didn't ask why Itachi was able to guide Shisui's sword technique.

And in the battle when Itachi became the team leader of Izumi, Hattori Shinichi, and Kido Daisuke, although Itachi deliberately hid it, he could see that Itachi was very familiar with the sword skills of those root members .

He and Itachi have known each other for many years, and it is clear that Itachi still seems to have some secrets in his heart that he cannot or does not want to say.

But according to Itachi's talent, it is not surprising that he was recruited as a member of Konoha Anbu before his rebirth.

Among the functions of Genbu itself is the training institution for Anbu ninjas, and the number of sword techniques of both sides is the same.

And Itachi, before rebirth, was the man who became the captain of the dark part at the age of 13.

It is relatively speaking that he is not good at wielding a sword. In fact, apart from a few jounin who specialize in swordsmanship in the village, there are few people who are better at swordsmanship than Itachi.

"Sai is my student, and it is my duty to guide him in his practice."

Itachi replied, Minato is granting him the right to pass on Saii sword technique.

Otherwise, Anbu's secret skills cannot be passed on casually.

"Hehe, I believe you can cultivate a good student."

Minato smiled and said, "Kakashi told me about Sasuke."

"You taught him very well, and Kakashi also attaches great importance to this student."

"After the assessment yesterday, he tested Sasuke's Chakra attributes."

"Sasuke is really suitable to be Kakashi's disciple."

Itachi remained expressionless, but from Kakashi's attitude conveyed by Minato, he already guessed something.

Kakashi's purpose of testing Sasuke's chakra attributes is naturally to prepare for teaching ninjutsu.

And Itachi knows what Sasuke is good at and suitable for.

Sasuke's control over the change of Chakra's form is even higher than that of Itachi's brother.

In the battle before rebirth, Sasuke not only mastered and used Konoha's first technician Hatake Kakashi's only original ninjutsu, but also developed many other application methods based on it.

These are things Itachi cannot guide Sasuke, but Kakashi can.

"That's really thanks to Kakashi-senpai."

Itachi said from the bottom of his heart that what he cares most about right now, besides the safety of the village, is Sasuke's growth.

"There is no need to thank you. After all, as a teacher, it is human nature to pass on what you are proud of to your disciples."

Minato chuckled, it was the same when Mr. Jiraiya taught him and when he taught Kakashi.

This is the inheritance between master and apprentice.
