"Oh ho ho ho ho?"
hiss...
"Yo?!"
"Lord Jiraiya, what does this spiral shape mean?"
"Masaka!"
Kakashi's face was filled with shock, as if he had just realized something!
"Lord Jiraiya's level... has it reached this level!"
"hiss..."
Jiraiya stood beside him, arms crossed, watching his junior become completely absorbed in the ocean of knowledge.
A smile, like that of an uncle, appeared on his face.
"Personally, I still prefer the lotus style, it's more ceremonial."
Jiraiya spoke slowly, with an air of profound mystery.
A small red booklet.
Two seasoned veterans of the ninja world...
Speaking of which...
"Um?"
During their discussion, Jiraiya suddenly asked Kakashi a question.
"Um... Haruko, is she always like that?"
As Jiraiya spoke, he made a chopping gesture.
Kakashi raised an eyebrow, recalling the awkward scene from just now, and his expression gradually turned strange.
"Haruko's personality... has always been gentle. Although she doesn't encounter many obstacles in her daily missions, she mainly focuses on medical ninjutsu."
"I never would have dared to imagine a situation like today before you came, sir."
As Kakashi spoke, his gaze gradually became suspicious.
"Lord Jiraiya, what... exactly did you do?"
The doubts from his juniors suddenly filled Jiraiya with bitterness...
"If I said... I didn't have time for anything... I didn't do anything, would you believe me?"
"Ah..." Kakashi's gaze was filled with doubt. "Then how did Haruko become like that?"
"Didn't I tell you there wasn't enough time to do anything?"
Enraged, Jiraiya suddenly smacked Kakashi on the head.
"Too late, too late, too late! This immortal didn't have time to do anything, didn't even get a glance, before this little girl chased after me and started hacking at me!"
Goodness...
Looking back now, Jiraiya still feels a little scared.
Although he also had the intention of observing Orochimaru's disciples.
But the way she laughs while cutting people down... isn't she any less impressive than Tsunade?
Jiraiya stroked his chin, looking deep in thought.
"I'm sorry, Jiraiya-sensei."
Kakashi winced and clutched his head, looking at Jiraiya with a hint of resentment.
Okay, this time he really believed it.
Given Jiraiya's character... although he often does such things, if he didn't do it, he didn't do it; Jiraiya disdains lying.
It's not like this one time will make a difference...
Kakashi… Jiraiya glanced at Kakashi, his tone gradually becoming serious.
"Tell me about Haruko's past."
"Especially... the time before Orochimaru betrayed us."
...
On the other side.
On the bustling streets of Konoha.
Walking side by side with Itachi, the girl's smile remained as sweet as ever.
The young man and woman were a handsome couple, and they certainly attracted a lot of attention on the street.
However, they still wore the Uchiha clan crest.
Regardless of how much Qingchuan's floral dress enhanced his image.
The mere mention of the name Uchiha is enough to deter most people.
The conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village persists, and it seems to be escalating...
but.
Whether it's Aokawa or Itachi.
The two of them were already used to it...
Qingchuan maintained the smile on his face.
As I walked, my mind was filled with conflicting emotions.
Itachi became a Chunin ahead of schedule.
It certainly caught him off guard.
How long has he been a member of the Dark Division?
Even though his Bankai proficiency had only improved a little bit, how did Itachi know that he would just accelerate and catch up with him?
Qingchuan is already considering Plan B...
If things are hopeless, perhaps... running away wouldn't be such a bad idea?
They survived the night of the massacre, but it doesn't say where they survived, does it?
He betrayed the village ahead of Itachi, slipped away to a small mountain village, avoided Konoha, Itachi, and even Akatsuki. Who could do anything to him?
Just treat it like running a dungeon... Force yourself to survive for another three to five years, and then you'll be able to take off again even after taking off your skirt!
While thinking about it.
Aokawa also glanced at Itachi beside him.
The current Itachi's strength hasn't caught up yet.
This option can be put on hold for now, but... it absolutely cannot be abandoned.
As I said before...
What if?
Itachi was unaware of the scheming gaze coming from the side.
His hand, still tucked into his pocket, was tightly clutching the handkerchief...
This is... a gift from Haruko.
Out of politeness... what should I give in return?
Itachi pondered deeply.
The two strolled around for quite a while before finally heading towards their clan's territory.
Aokichi, who had no intention of returning to the Uchiha clan's territory, stopped there and prepared to say goodbye.
However.
Just then, several odors that made him nauseous, but which also made him salivate because of his familiarity with the place, suddenly arrived.
The root.
Several roots fell directly down, and some glanced warily at Aokawa, but the leading squad leader walked straight towards Itachi.
"Itachi Uchiha, an elder from the Konoha leadership requests your presence."
A phrase that sounds familiar.
Qingchuan's brows furrowed immediately.
Itachi paused for a moment, and reflexively glanced at Haruko beside him.
But what he saw before him made his eyes widen in disbelief...
Haruko's sword was already drawn.
Haruko's words were simple and direct.
"roll."
"Or I'll kill you all!"
His tone was so cold that Itachi couldn't help but recall their first meeting.
At that time, Haruko also turned around and drew her sword immediately...
Haruko, she really is Haruko.
Utterly tranquil, without any unnecessary embellishment...
But why draw his sword against someone who also seems to be from the Anbu?
Itachi's eyes held a hint of confusion.
Qingchuan glanced at the Root, who instantly became alert, and felt extremely displeased...
And they're doing this right in front of him, trying to trick Weasel away?
Danzo's actions... are a bit hard to fathom.
"Itachi-kun, you'd better watch out for guys who like to impersonate ANBU in the future."
While Qingchuan was pointing his sword at several Root members, he was also giving Itachi a pep talk.
"They are the root, subordinate to a decrepit old man..."
"These guys are all bad people!"
