"It's the man who killed the spies of Yuyin Village on the street some time ago. You told us to pay attention to him."

Timely reminder from the roots.

Oh, I remembered it.

Danzo narrowed his eyes like a poisonous snake.

He, the Assistant Hokage, is considered the second-in-command of Konoha Village. He basically knows everything that happens in the village, so he has seen Uchiha Dan's name in the report.

This person.

He seems to be a well-hidden strong man, but he usually has a perverse personality and is unruly.

The success aroused Danzo's interest.

"Bring Itachi to see me." He thought for a few seconds and then ordered the two Genbu.

"Yes." The two of them immediately left.

When Itachi graduated early from the Ninja School, the Sandaime and other high-level officials in Konoha disagreed. It was Danzo who saw Itachi's potential and pushed for it to pass.

Later, Itachi, as an Uchiha, was able to successfully join the ANBU, thanks to Danzo's recommendation.

Of course, this is not free.

Some kind of deal was reached between Danzo and Itachi.

"Ryoma, you should follow up and take a look. When the time is right, bring that Uchiha Danya." Danzo thought for a moment and gave another order.

"Yes, Lord Danzo." Someone agreed in the darkness.

"It's time to go out for a walk and get some sunshine."

Danzo lowered his head and looked at the bandage on his right arm. Although his arm was aching slightly after the surgery, it also gave him greater strength.

He leaned on crutches and walked out of the dark and cold root base and returned to the sunshine.

Evening, gym.

"Itachi, you're here again." Samyi greeted Uchiha Itachi who came in.

"Hello." Itachi bowed politely as usual, and then led Samyi to the backyard of the gym.

In the yard.

In a rare moment of leisure and elegance, he was holding a watering can and watering the flowers slowly.

Looking at the tall Duan's back.

Itachi hesitated for a while, then said:

"Uncle, I have caused you trouble in the past two days. If you don't want to see me, I will not come again, but please... don't tell my father."

He knew that his uncle had never liked him.

Even if it goes against his father's wishes, even if he fails to complete the surveillance mission assigned by the Sandaime, he doesn't want to stay here anymore.

After saying that, Itachi bowed to Duan's back and was about to leave.

"Why do you think so?"

A broken sound suddenly sounded.

He stopped watering the flowers, turned around, looked at his nephew, and said lightly:

"I promised my brother-in-law that I will take good care of you. So from today on, you can follow me in fitness and spiritual practice."

"…yes."

Itachi looked shocked, but finally hesitantly agreed. He really couldn't guess what his uncle was thinking.

Duan walked aside, put down the watering can, and washed his hands.

He recently had some new views on Itachi, his nephew.

Uchiha Itachi may indeed be a born cold-blooded psychopath, but it is undeniable that his upbringing environment also had a great impact on his character.

Look at the people he has been in contact with since childhood.

Fugaku, a father who took his 4-year-old son to the battlefield to kill, completely did not understand his son's thoughts.

Shisui, a naïve, paranoid, stubborn idealist who firmly adheres to the will of fire, has become Itachi's guide.

Danzo, a scheming brainwashing master who only wants to use Itachi.

A young man, being taken care of by such a gang of crouching dragons and phoenixes, and being caught between his family and the village as a double agent, is burdened with unparalleled pressure.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult not to go crazy.

But for now.

There are still more than two years before Itachi commits the heinous crime of genocide, and there may be room for redemption.

In the past, I didn't want to get involved in Itachi's affairs because my "physical transformation" had not been completed yet and I thought I was not capable enough.

It's different now.

Uchiha Itachi is, after all, his sister Mikoto's son.

If Itachi really wants to kill his mother in the future, then Danya will have to kill this nephew, even if Mikoto will be heartbroken because of the loss of her son.

Mikoto was the only relative Suan cared about, and he didn't want to see his sister shed tears in the future.

so.

From now on, I plan to "correct" Itachi's personality.

"Then let's start immediately. Let me see your current strength. Let me first say that I know nothing about ninjutsu and can only guide you in taijutsu and illusion."

Duan got straight to the point and waved to Itachi, signaling his nephew to let his horse come over.

Does your uncle also know how to perform illusions?

Itachi was surprised. He had always thought that his uncle was purely specialized in physical arts, and he had never seen his uncle use illusions before.

But it makes sense if you think about it carefully. After all - which Uchiha doesn't know how to use genjutsu?

then.

"Please give me some advice."

Itachi bowed again, and when he raised his head, his eyes had turned into scarlet three magatama.

For an instant, the uncle and nephew looked at each other.

Swish.

Itachi's eyes released an impact of pupil energy, and he launched an illusion sneak attack without hesitation.

Um?

After a moment of carelessness, his nephew disappeared out of thin air and turned into countless crows, attacking him from all directions.

But the next second.

"Roar!"

A powerful roar came out of his broken throat, and thunder suddenly erupted in the yard. The sound formed a spiritual shock that swept away.

"quack!"

All the crows flapped their wings and were shattered by the energy in the shrill screams, and Itachi's figure reappeared in Duan's field of vision, and the latter had suddenly killed in front of him.

Bang bang bang.

The fists and feet of both sides collided continuously, leaving a trail of afterimages, and they fought dozens of times in a short period of time.

Itachi lived up to his reputation as a genius. Even when faced with an opponent whose size and strength were far greater than his own, he was still able to fight hard and fight with his uncle.

In his scarlet pupils, the three magatama rotated very fast, capturing every movement of Broken with his powerful dynamic vision, trying to find the latter's flaws.

As a result, he soon discovered...that there were flaws everywhere in his uncle's body!

Don't miss this opportunity.

Itachi didn't have time to think too much, he seized the opportunity and struck continuously, hitting his broken thigh, chest, back and other parts.

Then he understood.

It's not because he has too many flaws, but because he has rough skin and thick flesh, and he doesn't bother to defend at all.

Itachi's fists and kicks hit Dan's body. Not only could he not break his defense, but he felt like he had hit an iron plate. He was in terrible pain.

The difference in physical strength between the two is huge.

at this time.

Pull in your abdomen and lift your chest, then blow out in one breath.

Woo woo woo.

This breath turned into a strong wind in an instant, accompanied by a harsh roar, whipping up flying sand and rocks, hitting Itachi like a cannonball.

Violent and fierce.
