Xiao Hongli's determination to become Itachi's ninja.

And at this moment, Hongli's desire to become stronger was firmer than ever before, and her desire for power suddenly reached its peak. Even when their mother and son were kicked out of Huoying Village and bullied, they were never so eager to become stronger.

Seeing Hongli kneeling in front of him persistently and wanting to become her own ninja, Itachi couldn't help but think of Hongli's younger brother Hanahishi Reiho kneeling in front of Sako Shimoyanagi in the manga and swearing to become her ninja. The scene of keeping her safe.

It seems that Hongli and Agni are really brothers, no matter how different their personalities and encounters are, they are exactly the same in their approach and persistence in some things.

Looking at Hongli, who is still young and dressed in tatters, but looks at her with firm eyes that many adults don't have, and Hongli, who was willing to be disfigured after becoming an adult in the original book, wears a hideous mask , Itachi found that his cold heart seemed to loosen a bit.

Even if Sasuke can be personally injured many times for the safety of Sasuke, even if he can ignore his beseeching gaze time and time again for the sake of Byakuya's growth, but Itachi's heart is in a place where no one sees. There is still a piece of softness left.

Normally, only the younger brothers whom Itachi cares about can touch that piece of softness, maybe Yeyi and the others are barely one of them, but this time Itachi is softened because of Hongli's firm eyes without any impurities.

Itachi never liked to do things against his will. Since Hongli aroused his interest, Itachi suddenly changed his mind and planned to accept this child who insisted on following him.

Although he doesn't know how much his insertion will affect Hongli's future, Itachi believes that it will definitely be a thousand times better than his fate in the original book.

"Hongli, it will be very hard to follow me, and I will never allow betrayal!"

Although he has great trust in Hongli's loyalty, Itachi still speaks the ugly words first.

"Hongli is not afraid of hard work, and she will never betray your lord!"

Hearing a turning point from Itachi's words, Hongli was overjoyed, and shouted loudly as if vowing, her little face flushed with excitement.

Hong Li, who was raised as a ninja since she was a child, even though she is disappointed with the current Hokage Village, the belief that a ninja must be absolutely obedient and loyal to her master has long been deeply engraved in her bones, and she has to find a strong and loyal master. It is also the fate of all ninjas.

"Get up."

Now that he is one of his own, Itachi naturally pays more attention to Hongli.

"Yes, my lord."

Standing up obediently, I don't know if it was because I knelt for too long or because I was bullied for a long time and my body was hollowed out. As soon as I stood up, Hongli swayed, and if Itachi hadn't helped him in time, she would have fallen again fell to the ground.

Although Itachi healed Hongli's injury, her body, which was weak due to malnutrition, did not recover in a short while.

"Your health is too bad, you are not suitable to be with me now."

Hongli's bad body made Itachi, who originally wanted to take him directly to the Xiguo Palace, change his mind.

Sesshomaru seems to hate and despise human beings by nature. If Hongli just followed her back like this, even if Sesshomaru would not directly attack him for his own sake, those not weak monsters in the Western Palace would inadvertently send out The demon power that came out was not something the weak Hongli could bear.

After all, not every monster can restrain the monster power in his body well.

"My lord, I'm fine, my body is fine!"

Thinking that Itachi didn't want her anymore because she couldn't stand firmly, Hongli hurriedly said, her eyes were flustered, and she couldn't help but take a few steps closer to Itachi.

"I didn't say I don't want you, it's just that your body can't bear the place I'm going now. Follow me after you recover your body first."

Seeing what Hongli was worried about, Itachi explained.

In normal times, because of the long lifespan, Itachi can wait for Hongli for a period of time before returning to the Western Kingdom together, but if he wants to go to modern times together with Yang Yan's time, then there is not much time to waste now, and Itachi still has a headache. Explain to Sesshomaru that he left this time.

After all, Yang Yan's time drift is one-way, and he can only reach the modern age from here, and there is no way to return from the modern age to the Warring States Period.

To return to the Western Kingdom, the only way is to find Kagome in modern times, and find a way to use the jade of the four souls in her body to come back through the bone eating well.

Not to mention whether he can find Kagome or use the power of the Four Soul Jade, even if all these conditions are met, it will be 50 years before he returns.

To be away for 50 years or even longer, how to explain to Sesshomaru who is so dependent on him?

For the first time, Itachi found that his brain seemed to be a little insufficient.

"I will improve my strength as soon as possible, so that I won't become a burden to the adults!"

Itachi's undisguised words made Hongli's heart feel dark. He knew that he was too weak now, not only would he not be able to protect the safety of adults, he would even become a burden to his actions.

But soon, Hongli became firm again. It won't be long before she will definitely become the sharpest sword and strongest shield in the hands of adults, as long as she becomes stronger!

"Take this money to take good care of your body. Don't be stingy with money. There will be no waste around me."

Itachi took out a bag of gold leaves from his pocket and handed it to Hongli.

Hongli, who originally wanted to refuse, immediately put away the gold leaf after Itachi's last sentence. Although Itachi's words were not pleasant, Hongli's eyes were still full of gratitude.

Although she is still young, Hongli fully understands how precious this bag of gold leaves is. Now that Itachi gave her so much money to take care of her body, how could Hongli not be moved?

It seems that I really did not choose the wrong master!

82、Confession

"My lord, may I ask if your name is..."

Hongli, who was moved, suddenly realized that she didn't even know the name of the master she was following. Although Hongli had long ago decided to be absolutely loyal to Itachi regardless of his status, knowing the master's name was still necessary.

"Weasel."

A simple name, Itachi didn't say much.

Although he knew that even if he knew Hongli's identity as a monster, he would never betray him, Itachi didn't have the habit of publicizing his identity everywhere, so he simply said his name.

"Itachi SAMA, when and where can I find you?"

Seeing that Itachi, who had explained everything, was about to leave, Hongli, who was left behind, suddenly asked a little uneasy.

Not knowing Itachi's identity, not knowing where Itachi is going, but only knowing a name, Hongli doesn't know where to find Itachi if she forgets herself by then.

"You are waiting for me here, and I will come back to you after the matter is over."

After saying this, Itachi no longer gave Hongli a chance to speak, turned around and jumped onto a big tree beside him, and disappeared from Hongli's sight after a few vertical jumps on the top of the tree.

If it wasn't for the heavy bag of gold leaves in her hand, Hongli would almost think that her encounter with Itachi was a dream.

Staring blankly at the direction Itachi left for a long time, a gust of cool wind brought Hongli back to her senses. She suddenly thought of her sick mother who was left alone in the dilapidated thatched hut outside the village. With the gold leaf in her hand, Hongli finally showed a joyful smile.

Now I finally have money to see a doctor for my mother.

In fact, from the moment she asked to follow Itachi, Hongli had already made up her mind that if Itachi agreed, she would ask him to resettle her miserable mother. In short, she couldn't let her stay in this sad place alone.

Now that she has been temporarily left behind, this request can wait until the next time Itachi SAMA comes to pick her up. Hongli believes that Itachi SAMA will definitely agree.

The double joy of finding a master to whom she can be loyal and finally being able to improve her mother's life makes Hongli, who has a gloomy and steady personality, can't help but reveal her true feelings.

Immediately afterwards, Hongli took the gold leaf and ran to the place where she and her mother lived, wanting to share her joy with her mother.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Itachi didn’t have any destination when he came out, and it counted where he went, so his speed was very slow; when he went back, because of his thoughts, Itachi went straight along the straight line at the fastest speed, and only used three points when he went. In a short time, he returned to the Xiguo Palace.

Sesshomaru in the palace was a little surprised to see Itachi coming back so soon, he thought Itachi wouldn't come back within a year or so.

Of course, Itachi would not be ignorant of Inuyasha being sealed. Although Sesshomaru knew that he had never seen Inuyasha since that Itachi swore, but in Itachi's heart, Inuyasha still has the status of Inuyasha.

Although because of this, Sesshomaru tried to kill Inuyasha more than once, but every time Itachi would look at him with a very complicated look, so Sesshoumaru dispelled the idea of ​​letting Inuyasha disappear again and again.

Sesshomaru was secretly happy that Inuyasha was sealed this time, but also worried about Itachi's reaction. Sure enough, Itachi quickly proposed to go out for a walk to relax.

Sesshomaru felt a thousand and ten thousand reluctances in his heart, as if there was a million-dollar boulder pressing on it, but he could only watch Itachi being swayed by Inuyasha and had no choice.

Sesshomaru was already mentally prepared not to see Itachi for a year or so, but he didn't expect Itachi to come back less than three months after leaving.

Did he overestimate Inuyasha's position in Itachi's heart, or did Itachi have to come back because of something important?

After carefully observing Itachi's expression, Sesshomaru reluctantly concluded that the answer was the second.

Itachi's mood swings are too strong right now.

Sesshomaru knew that his brother generally would not hide his emotions in front of him, but because he was born with a cold personality, sometimes his heart fluctuated a lot, but it didn't appear too obvious on the surface.

Just like when his father passed away hundreds of years ago and Inuyasha was sealed recently, Itachi only showed a trace of sadness in his eyes.

But this time, the mixed expression of excitement and embarrassment on Itachi's face was so obvious that it could be seen at a glance.

What is it that makes Itachi so abnormal?

A look of worry flashed across Sesshomaru's eyes.

"Xiaosha, I have something to tell you."

After a few days of deliberation, Itachi finally made a decision to selectively tell Sesshomaru a part about his life experience.

In fact, itachi made this decision after careful consideration.

When Itachi was reborn as Shinigami, even if he was as close as Aizen or Byakuya, he never planned to tell them that he still had the memory of the previous two lives.

Because it is completely unnecessary, and because he has arranged everything in Hokage, although he still thinks of Sasuke from time to time, he believes that Sasuke will be better off without himself.

My own identity is too sensitive.

But now the situation is different, Itachi has to find a way to return to Soul Soul Realm no matter what, the few people there really make him feel at ease, especially since he left in that way, if he doesn't go back, Itachi can't guarantee that he will go back Can the world of corpses and souls still exist?

After all, through his own training and training, the strength of Aizen's subordinates is much greater than that of the original book. Even if Ichigo is a powerful immortal, he is definitely not the current Aizen's opponent.

I don't know how long it will be before I leave this time, if I don't have a good reason, I can't hide it from the shrewd Sesshomaru.

More importantly, if the two worlds really intersect, Itachi will meet Byakuya and Aizen sooner or later, and if he doesn't say anything now, he will face an even more embarrassing situation then.

Therefore, at the very least, I have to let Sesshomaru know about the Shinigami world.

"Ok?"

Sesshomaru signaled Itachi to continue, but deep anxiety suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart. Sesshoumaru always felt that what Itachi was going to say next was definitely not what he wanted to hear.

However, Sesshomaru was powerless to stop Itachi's opening, and could only feel his own heartbeat getting faster and faster with a nervous heart.

"Actually, I was born with memories. In my last life, the place where I grew up was called the World of Souls. I am not a human being or a monster. I am a god of death to maintain the stability of the afterlife.

There I also have a younger brother named Kuchiki Byakuya..."

Itachi's deep voice narrated the things he had experienced in the world of the god of death, and he didn't even hide things that he had never told others about taking in Aizen and creating Anbe.

He kept talking until he was dragged into a different world and was crushed to save Byakuya, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself in another world.

83. The First Conflict

With the end of Itachi's narration, the whole room fell into an eerie dead silence.

While digesting the bomb Itachi threw, Sesshomaru lost the ability to speak for a moment.

It turned out that besides myself and the half-demon that I didn't recognize, my elder brother actually had younger brothers in another world, even more than one!

Compared with the fact that Itachi was reborn with memories, the fact that he is not Itachi's only younger brother obviously dealt a bigger blow to Sesshomaru.

"Small kill?"

Although he knew that his words would definitely have a certain impact on Sesshomaru, but when Itachi saw that Sesshomaru still hadn't spoken after more than half an hour passed, he was a little worried.

"Since it has been concealed for so long, what does it mean that brother tells me this now?"

Squeezing out such a sentence from his throat, Sesshomaru found his mouth bitter.

Looking at Sesshomaru with an ugly face, Itachi suddenly realized how cruel what he was about to say was to him. However, after a little hesitation, Itachi still said his plan with difficulty:

"I found a way to possibly return to the world of souls..."

"Is that brother planning to abandon me to find that Kuchiki Byakuya and Aizen Soyousuke?"

Itachi's words were only halfway through when he was abruptly interrupted by Sesshomaru, whose face changed drastically. The sharp voice and pale face made Itachi's heart stagnate, and a pang of distress rose from the bottom of his heart.

This child who I have held in my palm since I was a child has caused such great pain because of me!

"Idiot, how could I not want you!"

Itachi skillfully raised his hand and flicked Sesshomaru's forehead with his fingers. Itachi had rarely done this since Sesshomaru became an adult, but this time he couldn't help it.

The familiar touch on the forehead greatly soothed Sesshomaru's restless heart. Itachi's body temperature was obviously low, but Sesshomaru felt a warmth coming from Itachi's fingertips, and it quickly spread all over his body.

The moment Itachi knocked on Sesshomaru and wanted to retract his arm, Sesshomaru suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Itachi's slightly cold right hand, and held it tightly in his palm:

"If you didn't want to find them, why did my brother keep looking for a way to go back? Why did you tell me the past at this time?"

Holding Itachi's hand seemed to give Sesshomaru a sense of security, and his lost sanity slowly recovered. Although his face was still ugly, he was able to think calmly.

"I do want to go back,"

Feeling Sesshomaru grabbing his hand tightly, Itachi hurriedly continued:

"But it doesn't mean that I won't come back, although I miss Byakuya and Soyousuke from Soul World very much, but my younger brother is Xiaosha!

As long as you are still here Xiaosha, I will come back no matter where I go, how could I leave you here! "

Itachi's voice was very soft, so soft that Sesshomaru's eyes suddenly became sour.

"Then brother, don't go!"

The hand holding Itachi became tighter and tighter, so tight that Itachi even felt pain.

Although I heard what Itachi said, Sesshomaru was still uneasy, always feeling that if I let go, Itachi would disappear in my life.

"Sorry, Xiaosha, only this matter..."

There was an apologetic look in his eyes, but Itachi's expression was firm.

Although Itachi can let Sesshomaru do what he wants in many things, but when it comes to finding a way to return to the Soul World, Itachi will not compromise, even if he knows that doing so will hurt Sesshomaru.

Although Aizen looks arrogant and mysterious, and Bai Zai looks arrogant, indifferent, cold and ruthless, but the two of them depend on and value him, Itachi understands better than anyone else, how painful it will be for the two of them to lose themselves Itachi also understands it better than anyone else.

Therefore, even though he felt sorry for Sesshomaru's injury, and felt sorry for Sesshomaru's sadness, Itachi never gave up the idea of ​​returning to the world of souls.

"What should I do if my brother leaves? Brother, can you really stay with me?"

He didn't listen to Itachi's explanation at all, Sesshomaru just didn't want Itachi to leave.

He still didn't have much expression on his face. Years of habits made Sesshomaru not fully show the inner fluctuations no matter how strong they were, but Itachi could clearly see that Sesshoumaru seemed to be about to cry.

"Xiao Sha, you are now the king of a country, even without your brother, you can do well by yourself."

Itachi regretted what he said as soon as he said it. Doesn't it make Sesshomaru think in a different way?

Sure enough, Sesshomaru's originally sad face was stained with anger:

"That is to say, brother, you made me the king of the Western Kingdom in preparation for leaving me? Because I am already the king, you don't care about me at all, do you only have those two dead people in your heart!"

Although Sesshomaru confuses Shinigami with dead people, Itachi has no intention to explain the difference between the two to him. Sesshoumaru has never spoken to himself in such a sharp tone.

Usually Sesshomaru can be said to be obedient to himself, and his voice is very soft, so Itachi knows that Sesshomaru is really angry this time, no, it can also be said that his heart was controlled by anxiety because he said he was going to leave.

So Itachi wasn't angry at all because Sesshomaru talked to him like this, instead, he kept feeling distressed in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that Aizen and Byakuya's position in Itachi's heart was so important, so important that it was comparable to Sesshomaru, Itachi would have nodded and agreed to stay.

"Xiao Sha, the reason why you were asked to succeed your father as the king of the Western Kingdom, apart from the fact that I don't like being entangled in freedom by those mundane things, the most important thing is that I believe in your ability and strength.

I believe that sooner or later you will surpass your father and lead Xiguo to become the biggest demon country in the world!

So, things are not what you imagined at all, although I also miss Byakuya and Yousuke, although I always think of a way to return to the world of souls, but for me, you are also my most important thing One of the people, I can't kill you because of them! "

Itachi is not a person who is used to explaining his behavior to others, but, in order to untie the knot in Sesshomaru's heart, Itachi really opened his heart to Sesshoumaru to see.

"I'm sorry, brother..."

Sesshomaru's face was full of remorse.

Like Itachi just now, Sesshomaru regretted the hurtful words as soon as he uttered them. Although his heart is still tearing because of the fact that his brother is leaving, Sesshomaru also believes in his brother's love for him.

After all, it has been hundreds of years, and Sesshomaru sees some things very clearly, so he is even more annoyed by his momentary indiscretion, which is obviously not his original intention!

What if my brother is angry with me because of what I said!

84. Compromised killing pill

Unexpectedly, Itachi was not angry at all, but came over to try to comfort himself, and clumsily analyzed his heart.

As a result, Sesshomaru, who had been dazzled by anxiety and anger, suddenly calmed down.

Looking at Itachi who has completely lost his usual calmness, the scenes of living with Itachi over the years just flashed through Sesshomaru's mind.

From teaching myself to walk and read, to telling myself how to use my own power, to protecting myself and participating in battles, until I became the king of the Western Kingdom.

At this time, Sesshomaru suddenly discovered that every step of his growth had been condensed with his brother's hard work, and every glory he had won could not be separated from his brother's teaching.

For hundreds of years, the brother who has done so much for himself, the brother who has always been calm and cold, unexpectedly showed such a troubled and distressed expression because of his willful demands!

How can I be so selfish!

Although I really don't want my brother to just go to the corpse soul world that I have never been to or even heard of, but now even if I really keep my brother, he will never be happy for the rest of his life!

Moreover, I should believe in my brother's promise, shouldn't I?He has never broken his promise to himself, since he said he will come back, then he will definitely come back!

However, no matter how much he comforted himself, the uneasiness lingering in Sesshomaru's heart couldn't go away. In the end, he couldn't help but speak again, wanting to get a reassurance for himself:

"Brother, you really will come back!"

"I swear, no matter whether I find a way to return to the Soul Realm or not, I will definitely come back here to see you in 50 years!"

Although I don't know why Sesshomaru suddenly changed his attitude, Itachi would naturally not let go of this good opportunity and leave firmly to make his oath.

This is the second time Sesshomaru heard his elder brother solemnly swear to himself, the first time he swore that he would never see Inuyasha again if there was no important matter, his elder brother did it, then this time, he will never go against his own promise swear!

Sesshomaru didn't know whether it was because he really believed in Itachi or to comfort himself. In short, after realizing that Itachi's departure was unstoppable, Itachi's oath really reassured him a lot, and he finally heard Itachi's words in his heart.

"I only give you 50 years, brother, if you still haven't shown up after 50 years, no matter where the world is, I will go find you!"

Suppressing the pain in his heart, Sesshomaru said to Itachi with unprecedented seriousness.

"I won't let this happen!"

Even if Itachi is not sure whether he will find Kagome after using Yang Yan to reach the modern age, even if he finds Kagome, whether he can use the jade of the four souls in her body, Itachi has decided to return to the Warring States Period within 50 years.

Itachi believes in himself, as long as he has personally experienced the time displacement used by Yang Yan, he will be able to find out the law of time and space flow in this operation. If he masters this law, then even if he can't find Kagome, he will be able to successfully Back to Warring States.

Therefore, Itachi's guarantee to Sesshomaru at this time was not perfunctory.

Because there are very few descriptions of Hongli's childhood in both manga and anime, and the time of what happened during that time is also very vague. Therefore, in order not to delay the time to reach the modern age, Itachi persuaded Sesshomaru to Ready to go back to Hokage Village.

As for Yue Luosha, Itachi didn't plan to say goodbye in person.

Although he is also his relative and treats him well, Itachi's feelings for Sesshomaru are obviously more than those for Yue Raksha and even General Inu, so he does not intend to tell Yue Raksha about his rebirth now. .

In this way, even if he went to say goodbye to her in person, itachi didn't know what to say to Yue Luosha while concealing the fact that he had left.

Therefore, after Itachi confessed that he must never tell the second person, including Yue Raksha, what he had said to him, he simply handed over the task of explaining his whereabouts to Yue Raksha to Sesshomaru.

Although he really didn't want Itachi to go to Soul Society, more precisely to find his two younger brothers, Sesshomaru obediently agreed, even though he didn't want to explain the mess to Yue Raksha at all.

Don't look at Yue Luosha's arrogant and gorgeous appearance in front of people, and his attitude towards her son is also very awkward, but when she gets angry, except for Itachi who can calm down quickly, even the dog general can only stay away !

After all, he has been a king for so many years, no matter how reluctant and painful Itachi's departure is in his heart, now that he has made a decision, Sesshomaru will no longer make those unnecessary struggles.

Knowing that it is meaningless to stay now, Sesshomaru resisted the sadness and anxiety of parting and let go of Itachi's hand, staring blankly at Itachi's back disappearing from his sight.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Not to mention Sesshomaru, who is still sad, as soon as he left Sesshomaru's sight, Itachi once again used all his strength to fly in the direction of Hokage Village. If this opportunity is missed, then the next time will really have to wait until 50 years later up.

However, when Itachi arrived at Hokage Village, he suddenly stopped at the entrance of the village, raised his eyebrows, something seemed wrong, Itachi thought.

Hongli's mother and son were kicked out of Hokage Village because Hongli was accused by the elders of being a cursed flame. Itachi knew about the fact that they lived in a thatched hut outside of Hokage Village.

According to Itachi's understanding of Hongli, after he gave him those golden leaves, it is impossible for Hongli to enter the Hokage Village that he hates so much when he has a source of food and life.

However, now Itachi clearly senses Hongli's aura from the deepest part of the village, that is to say, Hongli is not only in Hokage Village now, but also from his unstable aura, it can be seen that his current state will definitely not be so good where to go.

Hongli won't be locked up in the prison of Hokage Village now, will she?

Could it be that even though he participated in Hongli's life, he still couldn't change his fate of being arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment because of jealousy and robbing him of his status, the much-loved fire tried to assassinate him, and finally failed?

Thinking about it here, he couldn't think of any reason, so Itachi simply showed his figure and quickly sneaked into Hokage Village to see what happened.

The strength of the villagers in Hokage Village is far inferior to that of Konoha Ninja or Goute Shisanfan's Shinigami, so Itachi didn't even use invisibility, relying on his own speed alone to reach his place outside the village Where Hongli felt.

Sure enough, as Itachi expected, the place where Hongli is really is the prison of Hokage Village, and as far as Itachi feels, only Hongli is imprisoned there.

Perhaps because Hongli, who was only four years old, was really not taken seriously, there was only one ninja guarding the prison outside, and his expression was very relaxed, without a trace of tension in guarding prisoners.
