Konoha Tatsuno

"brother"

In the Uchiha clan, when Sasuke saw Itachi returning home, he immediately pounced on him.

Ah ~

As soon as Sasuke got closer, Itachi lightly pinched his forehead.

At this time, Sasuke had completely lost his usual tsundere attribute. He pouted and tilted his head, with an unhappy look on his face.

"Sasuke, how are you doing with your shuriken?"

Itachi looked at his brother lovingly and asked warmly.

"Hmph! I can hit 6 targets now."

Sasuke's little head was raised high, with a proud expression on his face.

As he rolled his eyes, he looked like he wanted to be praised.

"Sasuke, you are awesome!"

Itachi reached out and touched Sasuke's little head and said "knowingly".

"Sasuke, my brother has just come back, why are you pestering him again?"

In the room, Uchiha Mikoto's voice sounded.

As soon as she finished speaking, her soft and slender figure appeared at the door of the house, she smiled at Itachi and said, "Itachi, you're back!"

"mother"

Itachi also had a smile on his face.

Beside him, Sasuke pouted his mouth in dissatisfaction again.

Back inside, Sasuke began to pester Itachi to tell him about his experience in the Land of Water.

Unable to bear Sasuke's pestering, Itachi could only pick some unimportant things and briefly talk about them.

"Brother, is Brother Tatsuno of the Akimichi clan really more powerful than Brother Shisui?"

After Itachi finished speaking, Sasuke asked.

Because of Shisui and others, Sasuke and Tatsuno have met several times before.

He didn't see anything extraordinary about this ordinary fat man.

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

Hearing this, Itachi looked at Sasuke in surprise.

"When I was in the ninja school, I heard people say that Akimichi Tatsuno is the strongest person in the village, but Brother Inahuo and Brother Tiehuo in the clan clearly said that Brother Shisui is the strongest person."

Sasuke bit his lip, looking a little unwilling.

Obviously, he was very concerned about the rumors in the ninja school.

The expression on Itachi's face was slightly startled, then he looked at Sasuke and said: "Sasuke, do you mind this very much? As long as the village and the clan can be safe, what does it matter who is number one?"

"Of course it matters! Our Uchiha clan is the best ninja clan in Konoha, how can we lose to the mere Akimichi clan?" Sasuke nodded, looking angrily.

The look of surprise on Itachi's face gradually calmed down. He looked at Sasuke up and down, and saw that the latter called out his brother slightly uneasily.

Unknowingly, the younger brother he had brought up since childhood had grown up a bit and began to have his own ideas.

Moreover, his brother's ideas seemed to be somewhat different from his own from the beginning.

After thinking about it, Itachi said: "Sasuke, there are many factors that can influence the battle between ninjas. Before a real life and death battle begins, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose. I am entangled in whether Shisui is the number one in the village." A strong person means nothing.

On the contrary, it is more beneficial to us Uchiha clan to have others to share this pressure! "

"Ok?"

Sasuke blinked when he heard this, his face full of confusion.

Seeing this, Itachi smiled again and reached out his hand to lightly touch Sasuke's forehead and said: "You will slowly understand when you grow up."

"Huh! I'm not a child anymore!" Sasuke rubbed his forehead and hummed dissatisfiedly.

At night, after dinner, Fugaku called Itachi to his room.

"Itachi, did you see Akimichi Tatsuno take action during this mission?"

The two of them sat kneeling opposite each other, Fugaku looked at Itachi solemnly and asked.

"Have"

Itachi nodded.

"What is his true strength?"

"Brother Tatsuno used only two ninjutsu to completely defeat the Fourth Mizukage who was fully transformed into a tailed beast. It seems that he hasn't used all his strength yet," Itachi said in a calm voice.

Fugaku's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this.

The only news that Fugaku learned from the village was that Tatsuno had learned senjutsu and defeated the Fourth Mizukage. He did not know the specific details.

But from Itachi's brief words just now, Fugaku had gotten all the information he wanted.

Defeated the fourth Mizukage who had completely transformed into a tailed beast with just two ninjutsu!

Akimichi Tatsuno's strength has improved again compared to two years ago!

During the Nine-Tails Rebellion a few years ago, Fugaku had witnessed the power of the Nine-Tails with his own eyes.

Although he didn't know the strength gap between the three-tailed Isobutsu and the Kyuubi, the fourth generation Mizukage who could become the shadow of a village must not be too weak. Coupled with the bonus of the three-tailed Isobutsu in his body, he was already Fugaku, who had activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, asked himself that he would never be able to defeat him easily.

In this way, Akimichi Tatsuno's combat power can definitely suppress him.

In just a few years, this kid has actually grown to this point.

Thinking about it, Fugaku sighed slightly and said: "Itachi, work hard! If I want to win back the prestige of my Uchiha clan in the future, I'm afraid I can only rely on you!"

"Yes, father." Itachi heard this and bowed in response.

Late at night, the entire Konoha Village was already quiet.

wow~

On the Hokage Rock, a space ripple slowly appeared, and Obito wearing a mask suddenly appeared.

Beside Obito, a huge pitcher plant slowly rose.

Zetsu has arrived!

Call ~

Haven’t been back for a long time!

Taking a deep breath of the dark night air and staring at the peaceful Konoha Village below, Obito thought silently in his heart.

"How has the situation been in Konoha in recent years?"

After quietly staring at the Leaf Village below for a moment, Obito's voice sounded in the silent night sky.

Hearing this, Bai Jue said: "Obito, due to the rise of Akimichi Tatsuno, the conflicts between the Uchiha clan and the top management of Konoha Village have been suppressed in the past two years. In addition, the radical leader Uchiha Yashiro has been suppressed. After being killed in an attack, there has been much less radical speech within the Uchiha clan.

After a while, maybe the Uchiha clan will be truly domesticated! "

"Hey! Tamed? The proud Uchiha clan can never be tamed. They are just lurking temporarily." Obito curled his lips, and there was an inexplicable meaning in his words.

"Then what are you going to do?" Hei Jue asked.

"Don't worry! Let's find out more about the situation first," Obito said in a relaxed voice as he shook his head.

With that said, he turned to look at Bai Jue and said, "Has the suitable candidate I asked you to choose previously found?"

"There is one, but I haven't gotten close to him yet," Bai Jue said.

"Who is it?" Obito asked.

"An outcast abandoned by the Uchiha clan!" Black Zetsu said.

"Abandoned outcast? Very good, such a person is exactly what I want.

Bai Jue, please keep an eye on him during this period. After I finish what I am doing, I will go to see him in person. If possible, I will first absorb him into the organization."

Hearing this, Obito nodded.

In Obito's plan, the Akatsuki organization also needs a reliable clan member.
